Hi, BrainboxAh yes, the bulletproof science of a convicted felon who was de-barred by the FDA and has admitted to submitting false data for paid clinical studies.
Oppression can be insidious, and simply about relationships.
From your standpoint, the roll out of CCTV cameras everywhere would be described as a benign act of commercial common sense.
But it’s when things like lockdowns happen that the oppression is recognised: in China, for instance, CCTV is being used together with facial recognition technology to identify and prosecute lockdown transgressors. Our own CCTV systems would be actualised for the same, should the hysterical fear stop working.Governments only present themselves as liberal as long as things are rolling their way.
If a population, or individuals, threaten to act with real agency all possibilities are actualised: Gordon Brown suggested deploying troops—fairly early on in the situation—when the economy had a hiccup in 2008.
For further evidence of what our own government institutions are capable of, just read the story of Des Warren.
I trust you’ve heard the story of the frog and the scorpion?
I understand that you and the other "free-thinkers" on this website are addicted to the sense of empowerment that these disgraced grifters imbue within you (and quite keen to disregard that nagging notion of integrity in the process), but Fleming is using the pandemic to run a trial for self-promotion of a patented method that exposes patients to myriad unproven therapies without adding anything of particular value to science.Linking me to some info about where he was fined for overcharging insurance companies for some procedures in 2009 has no bearing on anything in the presentation.
Yet what do you think vaccine makers are doing? Shoot you've even got the actual inventor of mrna treatments screaming to the high heavens that we shouldn't be using the vaccine on kids, yet here we are......................I understand that you and the other "free-thinkers" on this website are addicted to the sense of empowerment that these disgraced grifters imbue within you (and quite keen to disregard that nagging notion of integrity in the process), but Fleming is using the pandemic to run a trial for self-promotion of a patented method that exposes patients to myriad unproven therapies without adding anything of particular value to science.
Fleming admitted that in 2002 he billed Medicare, Medicaid and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska for falsely represented medical tests.
In 2004, Fleming admitted he submitted false data after being paid to perform a clinical study on the health benefits of a soy chip food product.
Fark arse! Innnn nn n nnn n nn nn n n nn n nit!
Is that what we’re calling the University of YouTube now? Keep condescending to me while you lap up swill from the usual con artists, it’s adorable.Yeah, yeah Verso, fascinating. NOT. Why don't you stop quoting me, and stop trying to reply to me until you have something of substance to say? Better yet, get back to me after you apply, get accepted to, attend a globally elite medical school, and then do 3 further years of a post grad degree in Immunology/Virology.
There’s an interesting article in the Telegraph today, by Sherelle Jacobs, which concedes (1) that the government’s passport demands exceed what contemporary apps can deliver (both ethically and in terms of software) and (2) as a result, the incompetent outcome will likely be more dystopian than most anticipate:But they're not that smart or disciplined.
There’s an interesting article in the Telegraph today, by Sherelle Jacobs, which concedes (1) that the government’s passport demands exceed what contemporary apps can deliver (both ethically and in terms of software) and (2) as a result, the incompetent outcome will likely be more dystopian than most anticipate:
‘If the UK’s attempt to build a big data biosurveillance state to “beat” Covid is anything to go by, even after sucking up all of our brains, a Multivac of our making would still fail in its endeavour of saving humanity. The Government’s app obsession – from Test and Trace, and vaccine passports to, perhaps soon, an app to control obesity – is chilling and farcical in equal measure.
Dominic Cummings may not have succeeded in his dream of keeping Britain in lockdown so he could mastermind our transformation into a Taiwan-style techno-dystopia. Yet his spirit lives on in No 10, as the Tories put their bets on technology as a final route out of the pandemic, and then as a way to nudge us into good health […]
In reality, Britain does not have the legal means nor the technological capability to build the kind of biosurveillance state that might genuinely control Covid. Instead, the Government will only be able to simulate the impression of one, powered by junk data, and which many people will learn to evade.
But this doesn’t make the situation any more reassuring. The consequences of the Tories’ doomed digital dystopianism could be just as alarming as any successful version of tech totalitarianism. We are in for a rollercoaster ride of social paralysis and inept policymaking. We are also heading for the death of privacy as a minority of elites become immensely wealthy.’

That's not how people act when they smoke weed.
Ineptitude shouldn't really be an excuse to just shrug your shoulders and say 'nothing to see here.' Why? because one day they may get really good at it and by then it'll be too late.I agree they're inept, and will do anything to make money, but they can barely read their own emails nevermind usher in tech totalitarianism.
Sadly it's about treating a human being as a thing. Things are classified, numbered, labeled, quantified. Human beings should not.Yes, national ID schemes are about power relations. They can’t be reduced to issues of ‘data’.

So that's your excuse for surrendering your rights? Wow, just wow.I honestly can't see that happening in the UK - I have literally no idea how we ran an Empire, when we can't even run a post office.
And what do you do besides conservative shitposting on a Morrissey forum?So that's your excuse for surrendering your rights? Wow, just wow.
did someone just say shitpost? thats me! a legendary shitposter.And what do you do besides conservative shitposting on a Morrissey forum?
