2.  DAD has set the cat among the pigeons 

... at NOWP, (precisely as he should) with some very difficult topics.  I'm going to address these separately and obliquely.

The oblique reply is always covering something up (see Wed 1). Yet there is a point, I'd contend, where it's fair to ask ... is this coverup or diplomacy?

Naturally, I'm going to claim it's coverup not to address the excess deaths, naturally I'm going to claim it's diplomacy not to allow the fissure lines at N.O. to be crowbarred open.

Why?  Because, in the immortal words of Ripper, we all need to be working together as humanity at this highly dangerous time.  I use that description 'highly dangerous time' due to being locked, right now, in a battle to my death with the NHS (no details, coming to a head next week).

The last thing I wish to become embroiled in is the deep despair and hope against experience of atheism/humanism (Pink Floyd) versus redemptive hope (the Christian message for over 2000 years). 

Why do I not wish to engage on that? Because of the Ripper dictum, plus it's not the only fissure line. History teaches that once divided along one line, that soon becomes a multitude of dividing lines. The Lord T dictum is to address and concentrate on single issue if possible, no more than two, and combine to do so, for that short, necessary time.

If someone does not stop this crowbarring in its tracks, then we get conversations like this hypothetical:

A: Totally agreed we should all work together, discarding all fanatical superstitions ... no one's going to help Man but Man alone.

B: Totally agreed we should all work together, noting a far greater enemy of Man than Man himself, already snuffing out the noble savage and at the same time, suppressing the one hope Man has.

Those two diametrically opposite views are never going to be reconciled and the dark logic for B is that the currency must always be reason and persuasion (claimed by A, such as at OoL), not coercion. 

It's a minefield ... if B is to allow A's despairing, nowhere stance because "freedom of choice" must be preserved, then does B also allow the woman's "free choice" to murder her near full term baby? The paedo's "free choice" to molest children after drag show grooming, or the cabal's "free choice" in torturing children and extracting adrenochrome from them? Should a neighbour have the "free choice" to blast music all night and to hell with those around?

We're never going to resolve all those and meanwhile, there is a very real enemy attempting to snuff out the indigenous here and European stock in America.  Somewhere along the line, hard choices obviously must be made.

Ok, so who among us will play god, like a Fauci, and make decisions?  On what grounds?

1.  Snippets from TDS mailing this morning

#  The British Broadcasting Corporation and many other big media companies around the world have been accused of suppressing “wholly accurate and legitimate reporting” to further their economic interests via the Trusted News Initiative (TNI), a joint project designed to suppress supposedly harmful disinformation. 

Along with the Washington Post, Associated Press and Reuters, the BBC has been accused in a Texas court of suppressing competition in the online news market, thereby depriving people of vital information about matters of legitimate public concern. 

These include COVID-19 lockdowns, safety information about the mRNA vaccines and the Hunter Biden laptop story. TNI was set up in 2019 and acts as a gatekeeper on a number of issues, including Net Zero and the ‘climate emergency’.

# We have drawn readers’ attention to the Government’s Chief Medical Officer’s contention that the cause of excess deaths was a lack of access to cardiovascular drugs, blood pressure monitoring and cancer services. The first two are evidence-free statements, as we pointed out. On January 24th, Esther McVey MP asked whether the His Majesty’s Government was investigating or was planning to do so and received an evasive answer from the Minister citing the usual F Word (flu) and C Word (Covid) plus some waffle.

Now Lord Strathcarron has asked the same question and received an answer from Lord Markham.
