Current situation is comparable to 1914, when all of Europe rushed into war thinking it was going to last maybe 3 months at most. A few soldiers would die, but the survivors (and all young men naturally think THEY are going to be the survivor and the poor guy next to them is the one who will die) would be crowned with glory as heroes and get all the girls. The politicians and generals would get statues and streets named after them for showing such bold leadership. Businessman would get lots of contracts for military equipment. Newspapers would get more readers to keep up with the exciting news. Exact same set of incentives as currently. Nobody realized the war would last 4 years and leave Europe impoverished, same as no one considered how expensive these lockdowns would be.

World War I impoverished Europe, while making USA and Latin America rich (Argentina in particular, but then Argentina squandered its wealth with bad government). It isn't yet clear who the final winners and losers of this stupid covid-19 overreaction will be. Southern Europe will surely be among the big losers. Greece, in particular, is busy patting itself on the back at how successful their lockdown was, without considering how dependent they are on tourism, which is now ruined. I'm in southern Spain right now, another place dependent on tourism. They are just waking up to the massive hangover they are going to suffer.
Very good analogy. The final winners of the "covid war-like moment" would probably be an elite. Only, instead of countries or national lobbies, it would be transnational ones. Chinese and US billionaires who will use third parties to purchase huge companies (hotels and catering, airlines, commercial RE to name a few) for pennies. Pharma groups who will make hundreds of billions by selling vaccines and other "world saving" remedies to countries, or will profit from vaccination or sanitization programs. And so on...

Was it Argentina's bad government or the fact they enacted a central bank ? They just sit back and laugh at the sheople " go jump on this designated bayonet please ". What happened in WW 1 was Germany was building a rail system to go get the oil and the British empire was not standing for it.....

People often forget the story of the Hebrews in Egypt. In the first chapter of Exodus, verses 9 - 22, we may find an allegory. That is, the king of Egypt wanted to kill all the male children of the Hebrews. In essence he wanted to reduce their population. Why? Because they were more numerous and stronger than the Egyptians were. But first, he turned them into slaves and brought them down with hard bondage. Then he ordered the male children to be killed and later abandoned.

So how does this relate to Covid-19. Yes, Covid-19 kills more males than females, but none of the males that are killed are of reproductive age. There are still enough virile young men around to impregnate all the young women.

Governments certainly didn't propagate this to make their people subservient. Lockdowns kill their economies and make their countries weaker.

I'll just say this. Although most people think that vaccines are put there to help people, that is not true. And, although we've been told that pathogenic viruses exist, if one goes deep into the literature to see if any virus has actually been isolated (a way to verify its existence), despite claims that they have been, the truth is that viruses probably have never been isolated at all. In other words, there is no proof that pathogenic viruses actually exist in reality. Virology is not the science that we think it is. I know that sounds radical but that's what I can determine from my own reading.

13 May 2020 Stick Reader Submission

Just a heads up on lockdown in a major city in the Philippines. Lots of insanity and madness at all levels. The country had major problems and human rights issues prior to the so called corona virus, now it’s all just snowballed. Millions of the poorer people’s lives have been made worse than they already were. Without the monthly pay check they are basically screwed. Lots of problems getting food. A lot of the aid hasn’t reached them, and possibly been pocketed by those in power, as people have suggested. Yet so many people just go about their daily lives.

This is the first time I have ever heard some Filipinos say this is a shit country. Usually they are quite patriotic. That’s not to say a lot of the masses are speaking out. The average poorer Filipino is not often found to think for themselves or question or do their own research. So many reactions to this whole so-called pandemic have been nothing short of disturbing indeed. As a society it has got to be one the most easily scared and manipulated that I have ever witnessed, especially in the lower classes.

That’s not to say there are also a lot that have had enough of what’s going on here too. I would love to see the people here rise up and stand up to authority here, but we might be waiting a while. There is a lot of the usual media bullshit and fearmongering going around to keep people in a state of fear, and believing what they are told. I have read quite a few blatantly bullshit news articles stating corona virus deaths, when for sure it was cancer or heart disease. The headlines always seem to say another Covid death, until you read the fine print as such.

Nana Plaza
In my opinion, the people of authority here often have no idea what they are doing. What I commonly see here is people in positions of authority that clearly do not possess the intelligence or common sense to make decisions that affect people’s lives. The main problem with people like this is that they think they are smart, but they are not. It’s a common trait here, maybe a form of narcissism.

All the lockdowns and mass testing has done nothing but ruin people’s lives and destroy the economy. Yet they are hell-bent on all the testing and I think they fail to even see what they are trying to achieve, through lack of knowledge and common sense. I do think some of the leaders here are switched on, but maybe don’t get the chance to shine due to politics. Or maybe here the authorities are just doing as they are told by their western exploiters? The positive figures are very low here, and the death rate extremely low across the country. From what I have researched the tests are not even accurate, and almost pointless. I suspect the death rates here, although low, are still inflated. One report I read headlined, “Another Covid death”. I then read the article and the patient had stage four cancer and apparently tested positive for Covid, so you can see the bullshit there.

Picture a dog chasing its tail, and that gives you a perspective of what they are doing here. Prior to all of this there was attempts at implementing martial law, so I am not sure this has anything to do with the extreme measures here. Checkpoints everywhere, military, quarantine passes, being watched most places you go….you get the picture. I just toe the line to keep out of trouble, and mostly get left alone when I go out. I am tackling this lockdown my own way, especially health wise, which means regular fresh air, sunshine and being as close to people as I can, to keep my immune system functioning correctly from the herd immunity in general we rely on. When I go to the local market I breath in deep and take it all in to keep living the way I always have. Being locked up alone is not good for the body’s immune system. We need germs for immunity.

To finish, I just want to get on a plane out of here. I’m done with this country and its backwardness, lack of common sense, stupidity and insanity. There are many wonderful people here for sure, but as a whole this ain’t a place for an honest, straight-talking, intellectual Westerner.

I believe you haven’t been to the Philippines, Stick. <You’re correct and I have no plans to visit – Stick>. Well, save yourself the trip. You are not missing out on anything you really must see. Oh and one more thing, I remember the president here once on one of his ill-thought rants who said foreigners are ruining the Philippines.

I have attached a photo. Do you think it’s foreigners ruining the Philippines?

Fortunately, I heard that Angeles City is now under "modified quarantine", according to Dianne, whatever that means. It means the lockdown is slightly lifted I guess.

Stock Reader Submission
19 May 2020

Hi readers, a follow up to my last piece. Well as the title suggests, I am still locked down here. There has been a few changes here recently. As I mentioned last time, I’m not sure it’s actually the Philippines making all of these rules or are they just following the agendas of their western or eastern exploiters? They were due to end the ECQ ( enhanced community quarantine….they like to use all these professional exaggerated terms and I’m sure its related to self-importance ), on the 15 May, but in Manila and Cebu city they have extended it, as I knew they would, even though it appears a lot of Filipinos believed it would end ( believing what they are told again ).

In the two cities they have now introduced a modified ECQ which is basically the same, but with more industry and stores apparently open ( even though shutting down has achieved absolutely nothing, but the decision makers believe their own lies and that they are the saviours ). Wow but get this, you are now allowed to go out jogging or walking for exercise…sorry, but I never stopped doing that you clowns ! Only one person from each household is allowed out at a time ( again, keep the people socially separated ).

In the provinces they have now made it a GCQ ( general community quarantine ),apparently more work, and transport are some of the features. I don’t know all of it and exactly all the locations but you get my point.

Nana Plaza
All the insane bullshit social distancing ( keep the people isolated and apart to lessen their power) still applies as well as wearing the absolutely pointless face muzzle ( face mask ), to stop social interaction, smiling and general friendliness. Of course this is all apparently in place because of a common cold or flu….?

I have witnessed and read some more interesting examples of madness and insanity that I would like to share that might make you smile or shake your head in disbelief. Just for the record nothing here is exaggerated at all, and there is no fiction involved, and my opinions on the plandemic are just that, opinions, oops I mean pandemic…

I saw some profiles of Filipinas internet dating with the profile headings ” Lord please protect us from the virus”, I found this truly disturbing…almost lost for words actually regarding the fear and stupidity.

I was walking the other day past a checkpoint and happened to see a hand painted sign at the entrance to a community. It read, ” Born free, RIP, died of covid 19″. My first thought was an insane scare tactic ( I would bet the dumb ass that wrote the sign hadn’t done any alternative research on covid ) ??

I read a news article stating that 48 people or thereabouts were saved from covid 19 because they wore face masks! They had come into contact with an apparently infected person but the masks had saved them from the virus. I’m not quite sure where they got their evidence from, but I suspect the person or persons divulging this information had an IQ of 40 at best.

Another clown journalist wrote an article titled ” Imagine a world without a covid 19 vaccine”, my initial thought on that one was that they should inject the writer, but not to vaccinate, but euthanize, and in the comment section some brainless girl commented that without a covid vaccination the world’s population will be wiped out. I’m not sure where she got that info from, but it appears it came from her seriously unhinged brain, euthanize x 2 I say.

Another recent article was from a councillor I think, calling for all public transport to have plastic sheeting erected around the seating and to separate individuals, I kid you not. They had a picture of a jeepney with the plastic erected, ( a jeepney is like a songthaew basically, and mainly the poorer masses use them ). Can you imagine sitting in one of those tin hot boxes with a plastic sheet in front of you, sheets either side of you and in peak hour gridlock traffic? Forget deaths from covid 19, the people will fry in there and die of heat exhaustion ! More madness to add to the list…

A main airport is being prepared for when things reopen, with all its new social distancing adaptions, the wearing of face muzzles ( face masks ), and people having to sit one seat apart. I wonder if the people implementing these insane rules actually consider how crazy the rules are or that they genuinely believe it’s all necessary and beneficial ? I am no scientist, but virus or no virus, are people really stupid enough to believe that sitting an extra 60 cm away from another individual is going to make a blind bit of difference? Oh my….I hear Bill Gates has spoken about culling some of the world population…well it might be an idea to start with the panic stricken numbskulls that are believing all the bullshit that is being fed to them…nah people have a right to life…but hey you get my point.

Here in the city the authorities seem to be mass testing the poor and more strictly locking down their communities, its seems to be the normal in general here, the poorer cop all the shit, while people with money live a lot more free and don’t get bothered. The war on drugs seemed to be focused on the poor whist those with money recreationally use drugs as they please, so I am told from various sources.

Hey and it’s not just the Philippines where all of this madness is happening either, its world-wide. There are moronic cretins in every world-wide society, it’s just that here the level of insanity was higher prior to the plandemic ( pandemic ), so its amplified now.

Some more crazy implementations I didn’t mention in my last piece…plastic sheeting dividers at counter fronts in quite a few stores, if I go to a food outlet and it has a big plastic divider, I walk out, its f***ing stupidity. My f***ing hands are so dry from the daily bouts of alcohol spray I get bombarded with every time I return to my residence, go into a bank, buy takeaway…I think you get the picture…and those f***ing temperature guns !

I saw guys stopping motorbikes and spraying some kind of disinfectant all over the bike and rider ! I have walked into establishments and at the door I am made to step into this tray like contraption with towels in it and it filled with some kind of alcohol or disinfectant chemical which really pisses me off as all I worry about it doing is dissolving the glue on the soles of my expensive running shoes !

I went out to buy takeaway the other day, on the way I saw two respectable looking women coming my way eating their takeaway, and she just blatantly tosses the rubbish on the ground without a second thought…hang on euthanize x 3 hehe.

I get to the fast food outlet, there is no guard at the door so a young grab delivery driver waiting at the door for some reason decides to take my temperature with the electronic gun, spray my hands with chemicals, of course the temp gun was totally inaccurate as I was apparently freezing, I would guess at least half of the temp guns are totally inaccurate, but I also guess that at least half or more of the people operating the guns wouldn’t even know the normal human body temp anyway!

Anyway, I order my food and am waiting, a Foreigner walks in and the grab guy attempts to take the guys temp, and the foreigner just brushes him off basically and mumbled something, I mean it was a bit rude, but all the spraying and temp taking is f***ing annoying. The Foreigner grabs his phone order food and is out quickly and the grab kid mumbles something. The grab guy then turns to me and says, “Is he your friend” ? I’m thinking, what the ? I say no, I don’t know the guy in a tone that was firm, and then I ask the guy, is he your friend, and have a friendly laugh.

I mean, how dumb to ask me if the foreigner was my friend, when clearly I had nothing to do with the guy. It’s this kind of dumb ass shit that is super common in this country, and I will write a piece soon describing some insane behaviour I have witnessed over the years.

I have to get a pass from City Hall just to travel 30 km to another city.

The wealthy Filipinos haven't made any money in the last two months. I wonder how much more of this they are going to take before they start rioting.

Cebu City has the most Covid cases in the country. The disease is concentrated in the hospitals.

Its mostly old people that are dying ...

Alex's explanation of the different types of lockdown.

[6/1, 7:30 PM] Winston Wu: Isnt marquee mall open now for immigration extension? What is GCQ and ECQ and MCQ? Very confusing.

[6/1, 7:35 PM] Alex From Venice: not sure if that's open. Maybe yes. I still don't know. The ECQ is a total lock down with only workers for essential activities allowed to move around, no public transportation allowed. The GCQ allows almost all business to be back operative except hotels restaurants and everything related to entertainment. No public transportation allowed

[6/1, 7:37 PM] Alex From Venice: the ModifiedGCQ (MGCQ) is a restricted version of GCQ I can't say exactly how

[6/1, 7:37 PM] Alex From Venice: Very confusing

[6/1, 7:37 PM] Alex From Venice: anyway is insane here bro
