You realize the narrative changed, right? The murderer was from a rich family and never had United Healthcare and the CEO was from a middle class family that did not have any big money.

That's the narrative switch. Now the narrative is no longer about the rich evil man .. now he's evil BECAUSE he got rich! The narrative has switched to anti-merit and pro-commie.

My third job out of college was Health Insurance. It was a very wasteful business. I sat down in meeting with a c-suite person who probably made 5x~10x more than me. I saw millions get wasted away on stupid adverts to make people healthier. I think a lot of things were misguided .. but I never wanted any of my managers/directors to die. Most of them had families. Most were honestly good people ... or at least not worse people than any other industry I've worked in ... as far as I could tell anyway.

I'm not okay with dead CEOs. That's a shitty, unscalable, and ineffective solution.

To fix the medical situation, you really need an entirely separate system: cheap schools for unlicensed doctors, their own boards and who push against vaccines and unnecessary surgeries. Medicine needs to be less regulated and treated more as a religion (which it is). The Church of the Board Cert needs to break away into sects and there need to be so many neo-doctors onboard with the cult that it clogs up the courts with Patch Adam's style cases of "doctors without a license."

People didn't get sick like this decades ago, but we're still better than a century ago. But instead of real change, this propaganda narrative will just get people riled up and angry and totally fine when Orange Man starts pushing some insane new medical system connected to carbon credits or crypto-shit.

Given that there seems to be more talks about Bird Flu, let me just say that it is vitally important that you do everything within your power to resist and prevent another global, world-changing psyop, be it a pandemic or anything else. So many lives have been ruined due to the events that happened just a few years ago, and we haven't fully recovered. We absolutely CAN NOT deal with another shitshow.

Frugality–eliminating waste and superfluous spending–is either incentivized or forced by necessity: forced frugality.

Just after the Thanksgiving holiday, when people celebrated with a turkey on the table, suddenly all birds are blamed for spreading bird flu.

But just what is the global inter-deep state? It is an admittedly unwieldy term which seeks to describe an agglomeration of globalist, nationalist, capitalist and religious forces worldwide.

And I almost forgot that this client doesn't support notifications, though I haven't updated this program in a while. Maybe there is an updated version that supports it.
