This is post two of two, on Saturday I’ll be looking at Truss and the BofE. However, I need to write this disclaimer today.
In the same way that TCW (Kathy) and TDS (Toby) have writers from different angles and of different hues, so does OoL. Just because Julia and I both write here, plus Grandpa, that does not assert universal uniformity of opinion.
However, there are common elements, inc. a general wish to be left alone to live our lives without govt micromanaging, plus being anti this Reset bollox, whether it be Net Zero or the dire state of the judiciary.
And one thing underpinning Julia’s writing, most consistently, is that she puts up some report and lets the anomalies in it sink in for the reader, with some annotation. As for us across the way, we have a gang of deep sceptics who deep ferret and fisk, all unherdable cats and there are some consistent features which have always confronted us.
One is that there’s no consistent, complete and uniform narrative on our side … there are anomalies here, snippets there, which we note and store in folders. After quite awhile, patterns emerge as you go through each folder, more often than not counter to the Official Narrative.
A few times in the US, vloggers have put together collages of talking heads across the networks and cable, all stating something in precisely the same words. Nothing surprising in that, as agencies such as AP and Reuters put out syndicated feeds, relying on the cost cutting, laziness and inability to think of channels … so they avail themselves of the syndicated reality.
There is a certain inexorable logic to the nefarious, should they be so … they always cover it with a thrashed out narrative, uniform and enforced, even the lexicon is uniform and aggressive, factoring in, mocking and marginalising dissent.
There is quite a difference between fanatical dot joining in CAPS, amateur in presentation … and patient gathering of folders of anomalies. There be trolls also, false flaggers purporting to be of us but are not. All attention is on WEF young talent Gabbard just now. Let’s see if she’s changed her spots … I was a Tawney Fabian in my early 20s.
We have fragments, things which have slipped through or have been allowed to slip through, quite another thing. Yes, there are tunnels under Denver airport, a bizarre lit up stallion some distance away, not unlike Kali outside CERN HQ, there is bizarre art inside the airport. That bit simply is … the task then is how many dots can be safely joined?
In other words, it’s the eternal dilemma of science (small s). It’s the dilemma of investigative reporting. The temptations are many. And that’s it … that’s all there is.
Oops, update:
Right on cue, in comes Laura, from the nursing profession who, along with so many nurses now, has paid dearly for her ‘dissidence’, who’s been mocked and vilified by professionals:
Amen, love, amen.
Thing is, I don't want a consistent narrative per se. That singing from the same hymn sheet (like the threat to our democracy hive speak collage) is a tell. So is 'build back better'. It's a fatal flaw in their minitrue. As is the 'fact-checking' and snopes minitrue - it tells you someone is over the target and then the glorious Streisand effect kicks in (kind of like the old' don't believe until it's officially denied' saying) and they make it obvious where the ballpark of truth is by their frantic bullsh1t.
ReplyDeleteI like this, no, and few others as my 'newsfeed' - I can then go off and ferret about on my own.
I often think that those of us who think and question are sentenced to an eternity trying piece together a jigsaw puzzle. The final picture is unknown to us and is constantly changing. We never have all the pieces, some of the pieces we have aren't part of the picture and some pieces disappear while new pieces arrive every day. Also, the picture has no straight edges to make a start. Maybe this puzzle has been worked at for thousands of years and we are the latest generation in a long line stretching deep into the past.
ReplyDeleteThey say the "news of today becomes the history of tomorrow" but the problem there is who is writing that news and what is their agenda? Therein lies our problem.
