The unz.com article American Pravda: Our Coronavirus Catastrophe as Biowarfare Blowback?, published by unz.com editor and founder Run Unz, which posits that Covid-19 was a bio weapon by the US against China, has been going viral. For three generations following the end of World War II, America had stood as the world’s supreme economic and… Continue reading Unz is Wrong: Covid-19 was not a bio weapon against China

I can’t believe I’m writing about a virus. I could have never imagined such a situation a year ago. The differences between a year ago and now are so stark. Streets once full of people are empty. Anyway, Nassim Tooleb continues to demonstrate how clueless he is: Illustrates the point that + Governments are not… Continue reading Tooleb keeps being wrong

Sometimes it’s hard to be optimistic about the situation, although I remain invested in tech stocks, nonetheless, as I think it is the sector most immune, and in the long-run (18-24 months) things will mostly return to normal.

Why else has Twitter not suspended Teleb’s account for egregious TOS violations by insulting people with whom he… Continue reading Taleb liberal goes full retard

Blown cover as cover An interesting little quip given the rumors about The Storm. And for those who don’t understand why the confirmed guilty aren’t simply being rounded up and charged, read The Trial of Roger Stone.
