   Having working in a Pharmaceutical company I was aware that you can’t develop any vaccine from a standing start to fully tested in 6 months. It takes over 10 years to develop a drug we have worked on for several years, maybe even decades, through development, computer testing, animal testing and then human trials. What time machine were we using to take it from zero to in a bottle ready to inject in 6 months?

   Before that though it was plain that it was little more than another strain of flu. Why that necessitated an emergency vaccine is beyond me.

   Then couple that with policies developed over decades by real professionals to handle a threat like Covid was supposed to be throw away by ‘highly skilled medical’ politicians taking advice from other ‘highly skilled’ scientists who got the last few health scares so badly wrong. These fucks just cannot be trusted and yet none will face any punishment for the deaths they caused.

2. 16. A workingman writes – the term ‘white privilege’ both condemns and demands at the same time: you are white and therefore guilty of anything we say you are and because you are white you are forever undeserving.

   Simple questions reveal the most so for instance what percentage of the white population were in any way involved in the North Atlantic Slave Trade? It’s less one percent. The practice spans 11,000 years, a period that includes whites kidnapped and sold into slavery by non-whites.

   Four generations back the vast majority were living in third-world conditions in Britain. Your great, great-grandparents would be dead at roughly half the average lifespan today – and for many that death would have been very unpleasant due to diseases prevalent at the time.
