Soviet joke: We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us.

New Russia joke: We pretend to show a valid QR code and they pretend to scan it.

But seriously: I'm annoyed by the slow check-out lines at the grocery store, not to mention going through security at the airport. Who in their right mind is going to put up with "going through security" at every coffee shop, bar, or convenience store on the planet?

We're having an extended global opportunity to find out who are in their right minds, and who are not.

People who like to be afraid, like they did after the 911 inside job.

What are they trying to achieve? Higher vaccinations? Destroy small businesses? To what end?

(Your musical selection is wonderful as usual. The Russians sure know how to write soulful music.)

The destruction of EVERYTHING. The owners have so badly mismanaged their "property" that now their only choice is totalitarianism and complete control. Otherwise, we will have their heads on pikes and they know it. If this doesn't give you several clues about what is to come and how to manage that eventuality you're out to lunch.

Yes and yes. They are trying to destroy small business.

To get control over the food supply lines.

I don't understand. How does destroying say a hair salon help control food supplies?

Hairdressers fall under the department of "other kulaks".

Also it means that you can tell the hold-outs, longer hair.

Will folks protest and hold a general strike to support the solidarity of small businesses when one gets targeted?

Expand full comment

No. People tend not to get off their asses until their way of life is sufficiently hindered. Then they will protest that.

No wonder the federal budget allocates so much more money to police and security goons of various kinds. You're gonna need them to make 24/7 rounds and check businesses for compliance!

From the Fontanka article: "Сам Александр Коновалов сообщил, что ...его цель — наладить диалог с властью."/ "Alexander Konovalov said that his aim is to establish a dialogue with the authorities".

What a load of rubbish. Everybody knows that you don't negotiate with terrorists. And you don't get rid of tyranny via dialogue with the tyrants.

Is this the same Konovalov of "FU" QR code fame? I'm with you, Natasha. It doesn't add up.

I believe it's the same guy, yes. And I'm very disappointed in him now.

Things are moving very quickly. Ensure that you have plenty of water and canned goods for the coming hard times. You may not be able to leave your dwelling for weeks at a time. If you are not armed, rectify this. I think you are near Lviv, correct? Is the situation stable there, for now?

I am about 200 km from Lviv. Yes, things are more or less okay now, but, like I mentioned in another comment, it must be because of the holiday season. The authorities, in their immense generosity, are letting the peasants celebrate New Year and Christmas. But they also announced a new wave of the "epidemic" for February. Not looking forward to it.

I do have plenty of canned goods, by the way. As for arms, I've thought about it, but I have zero shooting skills...

Covid life in Chile where my husband and I live..... We’re US ex pats. Chile is a country of 19 million and we are a big test site for many of the different jabs on the market, including Sputnik V. There’s a complete blackout of jab side effects by the Piñera government and their owned media conglomerates along with what are known as the “independent media” who also doesn’t report on covid shot side effects. We had the QR code on a special mobility pass, called pase movilidad since probably mid 2020. Now at least 2 million have been thrown off the pass January 1st the government announced since they didn’t keep up on their 3rd booster. The 4th booster is supposedly being mandated at the end of this month. This is a good sign because when one goes into the cities probably 95% are wearing masks outside whether they’re by themselves or not. We’re also shooting up 3 year olds this month and lots of pregnant women have been injected since last year, my friend included who is on the verge of losing her baby after she got a Pfizer shot at 16 weeks of pregnancy. If the baby survives there’s no telling how damaged he for she will be.

Back to this post....... we’ve also noticed that many of the shops and restaurants are bypassing the rules of the regime and not scanning people’s QR codes or telling us to wear the mask. We even had our favorite restaurant owner come up to us last month after we were almost through eating to warn us the Covid shot Gestapo from the health departament who travel in groups were heading to the restaurant to check if everyone inside had their passes. They actually alerted them! Strange. If people didn’t have their pass, the people and the restaurant would be fined. No idea what the fines are. So she said hurry up and go sit outside. We’ll bring you anything else you need. So we sat outside and had coffee and desert. It’s summer here and it was a beautiful day so we didn’t mind. Then she came out and warned us they were inside and to not come inside. Then 10 min later she reported that they had left and started to laugh. So what the restaurants and bars are doing are opening outside seating areas if they can and anyone can sit there including those of us pure bloods. Most of what the government says to do many don’t do, especially the little establishments so they can try and survive. Many were shuttered last year and few new businesses have taken their places. We’re all supposed to wear masks outside. Inside for sure but we and our 2 friends defiantly don’t wear them along with a few brave souls on the street and nothing happens to us. The police called the carabineros walk right by us. We get glares from masked people and some confront us about not wearing masks but we always confront them with the stats they don’t work. It’s easy to over rule them because no one does that and they don’t know what their talking about.

Protests are becoming more common and it’s the underground radio stations feeding the masses, especially the young people to fight back and resist. No idea what the new left-wing President Gabriel Boric will do come March when he takes office because he’s never questioned by anyone about Covid. He said on the campaign trail when a brave comrade shouted to him what he planned to do about this Covid scam that everyone should get the vax so I’m assuming he’s part of the Cabal.

I love reading about what’s happening in other parts of the world and the status of each country. How far along they are in the injuring and killing of their citizens. We’re just waiting to see if this entire plandemic is stopped in time. I just heard an interview with Reinert Fullmich the German lawyer whose going to be charging many of the instigators before the International Criminal Court and it will collapse. I can only hope all those at the top will be punished but I fear nothing will happen because there must be mass disobedience for that to happen and so many are walking around in a fear psychosis. Keep up the great work, Edward. Love your posts! 🥳💪🏼

my theory: at this point NATO countries, China & Russia all know war is coming and they all mistrust their citizens. both if each starts losing the war or if it takes too long and citizens get angry. So before the kinetic war starts there must be some control of individuals. QR codes fit that perfectly.

If you're gonna have a war, you need patriotic citizens who:

a) Won't gas out on the battlefield in two minutes from vaccine blood clots.

b) Are sufficiently patriotic to enlist and fight for their country and help the war effort at home.

Which isn't happening in Russia, since so many people are fed up with the politicians' open and blatant corruption, and too many are well-read and informed, while the Russian state media isn't good enough at propaganda. You need a high standard of living and more sophisticated corruption for the propaganda to work.

While in the USA you have millions of rednecks armed to the teeth who can fully sustain themselves out in the countryside without the government's help and also tend to supply a lot of food to the New York hipsters.

China I can see though, they seem to all be in love with their government from what I gather.

Plus good old "country vs country tanks in the field" wars aren't happening anymore - it's more about proxy battles in "neutral sites" like Syria or Ukraine.

It's much more than that. And the coordination suggests that if war starts then it's just part of the general plan with the generals sitting above countries.

which does not deny my point. Brazil here for example, we had our federal vaccine recording system taken down on dec 9th and still out. So even though most of country is requiring the passport for several venues, the regime is not being enforced since connectSUS (the name of the system) is still out. some say the hackers deleted the entire database so Brazil is unvaxxed now

you are right IMO about some un-human power above the Powers that be on this Earth controlling the show. Even that clown Bruno Maçães wrote about a hidden demiurgue as the true power behind the throne(s). yet my point remains, people must be controlled for when the kinetic war starts they won´t revolt. I thought that RUssia was different, but unfortunately came to this blog

We have such a map in Ukraine too

Sadly, none of these places are in my city. But I went to restaurants and cafes many times over the last few days and wasn't asked for a QR-code once. Must be because of the holiday season. I'm sure the screws will be tightened in February.
