Allegheny County (Pittsburgh, PA) will never pass one.

The idiot mayor of Pittsburgh and the idiot county executive told employees to get the covid death shot or they would be fired.

Luckily, the Pittsburgh Police union president said no way, it wasn't part of the contract we signed with the city.

This is sad to hear. But I think it is a good sign when in any battle, including legal or policy campaigns, when an opponent over-reaches, even if appearing initially to have gained advantage. Remain calm and make them pay legally or politically for their empty "victory." Read Sun Tzu.

NYC just paid out 1.86 billion to 5,000 people who FAILED the teacher's exam --- well, as long as they were not white people. Okay, LEARN from that. YOU put the mayor and the county commissioners on notice: the people of Pittsburgh will be seeking a redress of this crime of forced vaccination, and the people of Pittsburgh will be seeking to hold public officials personally liable. And the people of Pittsburgh are not giving up --- ever.

Are you concerned that you do not know how to make the Law work for you in this way? This never stopped the Frankfurt School revolutionaries that have nearly destroyed our nation. And I don't think that the SPLC or the ADL or George Soros or BLM or Antifa's or the NAACP strategists and funders worry about the non-existence of laws at present. The take over of the universities and colleges and the NEA and the public library systems (including Carnegie) was not achieved because the agents navel gazed until they found excuses and limitations to argue against acting. The revolutionaries and tyrants are not dumb. They are not timid. They just make sure the laws are there tomorrow when they need them. They insert law students, and then law professors and then law school deans and then sleazy judges -- not to mention dummy legislators -- until they possess the legal and political landscape of battle that they want. They play a long game, unlike our team that is often times too selfish, too hedonistic, too focused on "me and mine," too focused on that retirement cruise, too focused on gillin', too focused on marble countertops, sports games and so on . . . Frankly, I rather admire the Left and the totalitarians in this one thing (despite their corrupt morals): their method. You should too, and learn from them.

Subversive agents know that all cultural revolutions involve pushing on all fronts and in all directions. They move like amoeba. Have you ever seem an amoeba move? These microscopic blob-like protozoans extend a protoplasm-filled foot in this direction, and then in that direction, retract here temporarily and then extend again later when conditions are more favorable in that direction. They are relentless as they slowly engulf everything in their path.

Imitate the lowly amoeba.

How about them Bucks? "It's a long drive to deep left field . . .going, going, GONE!"

...and the idiot head of the regional transit system forced employees to get the shot or be fired...and several were fired.

Buccos...nothing can beat Bill Mazeroski...1960 World Series.

The transit head probably got a PAT on the back (haha, Port Authority Transit) for the nasty deed. Add him to the list of pols to be held liable.

What a wonderful moment in baseball. My mom said that when we went downtown for the ticker-tape parade, I was so small that the ticker tape covered my head. The section of outfield wall should still be there on what is probably the University of Pittsburgh campus. It was walking by the magnificent Carnegie Museum and Library with my parents on the way to see "The Dinosaurs" (pre-school, I thought they were going to be live dinosaurs --- so disappointed to see only bones), that I decided that i want to be an academic. (See, the belief in ridiculous ideas is deep in the formation of academics.) Oakland was the home of many good experiences. I spent a Thanksgiving break in the U. Pitt med school library writing my first paper on a neuroscience topic. Twenty-five years later, I would meet the man who wrote that paper when I worked at the Nobel Institute. A Pitt neuroscientist, the late Mel Kreithen, and I worked on an absolutely wonder project of bird navigation in California with Cornell ornithologist Tom Cade. I dearly miss Mel, Tom and that whole team. Mel, especially, was one of my best friends and mentors. I remember him saying to me once, free speech does not exist in America. I did not fully understand what he saw in the late 80s and early 90s.

Well, Miss Janoski, you prompted me into a long walk through my memories. I hope you and others enjoyed that home run clip. It is up to you and us to restore America, or whatever country readers are in, to the good places they were --- and better. "The wind up, and the pitch . . ."

Thanks for sharing your wonderful memories. There is a marker on the Pitt campus showing the location of Forbes Field.

It sure was a different time back then...

The times are what WE create them to be, not Klaus Schwab, not Bill Gates, not George Soros, not Barack Obama --- none of them. WE must have a sense of our own agency, or power to act, our power to create and not merely to react to maliciously-programmed entertainment and "news-for-dummies." We create the culture, the society, the nation --- but we cannot be passive. Our children, grandchildren, great grand children cannot be just left to grow like weeds: that does not happen, at least not in a way that turns out well usually.

Here is something fun, if we force ourselves to have such fun, just like the thought provoking questions that we encountered at the end of some assigned essay in school:

1. I left four other comments. The one-sentence comment got nine (9) votes. The lengthier ones received four (4) and one (1) --- and my several line answer to David Slesinger's lengthier comment received one (1). Why this pattern of numerically expressed approvals? I cannot provide judgement about my own products, others have to do that, but I can at least attempt to tell what I tried to do. It was not about "commanding" people what to do, but to encourage one another and provide things that worked for us in this long war. And it is all for free! It is not about blowing my own horn or anything like that. My horn is not better than anyone else's.

2. What can we learn from the pressure tactic in despicable case of the theft of the City of New York of $1.86 billion for 5,000 dummies that could not pass the teachers test --- non-white dummies need not apply to the reward for being stupid. Though I am not recommending emulating that particular scam, what I am recommending is equal fervor in saying NO to that kind of filthy nonsense. How will we organize. Even if someone reading feels he or she is not the leader type, then how will you encourage and support someone else to be the leader type?

3. How do pressure groups make the law, the institutions, politics, communications, broadcasting, academia, politicians and businesses bend to their will?

4. What is "total cultural war" and how is it waged?

5. What types of personally and culturally destructive distractions, habits of dissipation, habits of thought, laziness keep people in an oppressed state and easily manipulable? How is it that we surrender our agency to the tyrants?

6. What are the correctives to those things? Is it not going to ball games and not eating sausages? Is that what I am recommending?

7. What is the relevance of the example of the amoeba for you, and for you and all of us other readers here at this particular essay that Dr. Nass has nicely offered for us?

8. What is the significance and possible utility of the link provided for Bill Mazerowski's 9th-inning, game-ending, World Series-ending homerun against the Yankees in 1960?

8. In the next comment, what WAS the point of the recounting of personal memories? Is that an act of narcissism or is the author inviting any and everyone else to see the significance of each event in one's life -- and their interconnectedness -- in the web of shared importance and the network of HOW we build culture using what society has built for us?

9. What were the roles of large players like Carnegie in erecting libraries and museums even if other actions of theirs might deserve scrutiny or criticism?

10. Was Carnegie's build a museum and library the very same thing as Rockefeller giving dimes to children or leaving us the Rockefeller Institute or destroying compettition. What is the difference between those libraries and museums and Bill Gates' supposed "philanthropy?"

11. In the third comment, not so long, I was commending David Slesinger's street politicking. I liked reading his account. He has gone from ideas (theory) to action (practice). It is worth reading his comment if one hasn't yet. Plus, he is asking for advice on how to interact with Normies. So he is not hung up on knowing or not knowing --- which afflicts a lot of people on the internet, especially men. You know, watermelon seed spitting contests that you can find outside of Substack.

12. What else might be extracted from the Billy Mazerowski story about remaining calm and confident? The half inning earlier, it would have been easy to the Pirates to have concluded that the Yankees had the late-inning momentum. But momentum is wherever people act.

Thanks Kathleen, Meryl and all the other commenters!

I have given you all, literally, a college course here. But one "like." I worked my *** off. And, besides you, mostly crickets. Little interaction.

Do you see what I am trying to do? I am trying to empower others. We have no time for entertainment politics. This is not just another passive substitute, admittedly one step better though, than the passive TV watching of the 1960s.

But it is very frustrating when one realizes that a cat video might have gotten more likes and replies.

But YOUR comment, Kathleen, worked. So, now, build on it. YOU carry the ball. Move people beyond passivity. Engage them in thinking, planning, rationality and acting sensibly.

Mayor and council members aren’t gonna willingly give up their Pfizer campaign contributions. How dare we expect that!

We hope this spreads like wildfire -- or better yet -- faster than a Media-propagated, bunko PCR-"verified," dirty doctor-spread, fake pandemic.

" immediate confiscation and forensic analysis of the contents of the vials." sure got my vote for that! Let's see who will run for office on that!

Definitely a huge mistake for Donald. Proof to me that he’s always been in on the whole LIE

Nah, Stephanie, I honestly do not think he knew what they were doing. I do hope he sheds some light on this as it will cost him quite a few votes.

I approached activists with the Poor People's Campaign at their rally at Charlotte Govt Center today with a short flier advising them that even though they are good hearted, they are on the wrong side of history. The lockdowns really hurt black owned businesses and school children, who they care about. I told 2 black ladies who probably were older than me that if they would discuss the evidence, they be heroes of mine. They did admit to being against the war. Things were going well until I admitted I supported Bobby. They were sure he hated Jews, but admitted that surprised them. A white fellow a head taller than me and half my age asked me to leave. I told him he was welcome to have me arrested. I had introduced myself to everyone saying I had served 3 days in jail in 2019 from my Poor People's Campaign civil disobedience in 2018 and I was honored by that.

Then I spoke with my old friend, the outrageous Ms George Friday. I'll never forget the IN PERSON meeting she had been facilitating for the PPC where she told one attendee that his Duke Blue Devil hat was disgusting. She had attended UNC Chapel Hill when Michael Jordan was there. Her remark was very bad form, but as a connoisseur of meeting process, it was still unforgetable. She did ask me today to cool it in so many words. Her friend Stacy did agree to take a phone call to discuss my flyer as did George. I think I should lead with a discussion of the war and follow with the fact that the Brits don't allow COVID jabs to pregnant women.

I know most of you have given up talking to normies, but I still invite advice on that front.

No, this is beautiful, David. This is exactly what I keep trying to get across as well. Get out there. Mix it up. We cannot demand of reality that everyone will align with us. Why should they? Political and philosophical ideas form a very complex multi-dimensional space that we cannot picture in our 3-D brains. You adroitly kept intersecting where you could. You gently pushed the shark character away. Just do stuff (rational and peaceful, of course). Nothing has to be perfect. Bravo!

I'm still investigating the Taboo Subject - early spread. In my recent effort, I show that school closings in America spiked BEFORE official Covid. Approximately 100 school systems in at least 14 states closed due to illness in the months before "official Covid" (including in Oregon). To me, this is more evidence early spread was happening.
