The ratchet

First consider this, via reader Steve, from yesterday:

Dr. Mike Yeadon:
"I have absolutely no doubt that we are in the presence of evil (not a determination I’ve ever made before in a 40-year research career) and dangerous products."
COVID Vaccine … An Integral Part Of “The Great Reset”

That word 'evil' is too often bandied about as the other side bandies about 'racism', rendering it near meaningless as a word, a weapon to beat down those disagreed with.

You can apply the word 'evil' to communism, global socialism and yes, it's applicable but not quite to the level of the sick and bestial. That’s the pitiless, bureaucratic, banal kind of evil.

I’m writing here - and I suspect Mike Y is also referring to - a personal, vindictive kind of evil by someone who loathes humans and is dedicated to their eternal misery, their destruction, playing on their innate stupidity. This evil has pet hates for certain people more than others.

How can you have any pudding ...

... if you don't eat your meat?

That's the sort of logic seen in Pink Floyd's The Wall which we're increasingly seeing rolled out now, ratcheted ever tighter. The Wail:

St Vincent residents who have not had their Covid jabs are BANNED from being evacuated onto cruise ships after two volcanic eruptions on the Caribbean island, PM announces.

That's the first part but this bit is nasty:

Gonsalves also said that residents who haven't received a vaccine but are likely to have received it in time to join the cruise ship evacuations would not be allowed to board because of possible side effects such as 'wooziness in the head'.

That's to punish them for not complying till now. Very, very nasty. Matters not that it's an insignificant island - creeps like Jackboot in NZ and Psycho Hancock over here see it and think - gee, that's a good idea and try rolling it out here.

With embellishments for brownie points.

And so the ratchet increasingly turns, bit by bit, while the defamation campaign is also cranked up, the guilt-tripping. 'Well how can you breathe the air out here with us or buy food if you're so selfish about others?'

I was reading today from writer Sam White:

Increasingly, it's not the zealots who annoy me, it's the 'I don't really believe in this measure, but I just go along with it' people. It's them, not the zealots, who are preventing a full return to normality.

That much is so but it's that same demographic over and over.
