As they now work to terrify us over climate change, and black out Bobby’s nuanced views (of that & and many other subjects), it’s high time for Americans to turn them OFF, and hear him out
Let’s say there are “aliens” out there—as in “The X-Files,” not as in, say, Yuma. If they are among us, or just above us, and half as smart as they’re cracked up to be, they must see something rather odd about the Western media’s current non-stop, all-pervasive, state-backed panic (as in the immortal words of Greta Thunberg, “I want you to panic!”).

What those hyper-brainy ET’s have to notice, if they really are “out there,” and paying attention, is that this panic, over the “unprecedented” pall of acrid smoke and particles from Canada (I see it from my windows here in Greenwich Village), is weirdly like the panic that “our free press” started stoking in mid-January, 2020, when it was “the coronavirus” that was coming for us. Back then, as now, “our free press” all ran the same rock-simple terrifying story of a looming danger that “the experts” had (have) all warned about for years, and that was (is) finally coming for us now, and was (is) going to kill us all if we did not (do not) listen to those “experts” now, and start to “live” exactly as they tell us to.
Unprecedented’ Canadian fires intensified by record heat, climate change

As Canada burns, smoke makes US air unhealthy and skies eerie. Is climate change to blame?
June 7, 2023
Canada is on fire. On Wednesday there were more than 400 wildfires burning across the country, more than half of them out of control. Smoke and unhealthy air quality levels from the conflagration have blanketed multiple Canadian provinces, much of the Great Lakes region and parts of the northeastern United States.
While forest fires are a natural part of the ecosystem of Canada’s boreal forests, the size, ferocity and number of fires this year is decidedly abnormal. Most of the country is expected to be under high to extreme risk for much of the wildfire season, which stretches from May to September.
“Climate change is real and having a huge impact on Canadians right now with forest fires burning across the country,” tweeted Catherine McKenna, Canada’s former climate minister.

Schumer calls Canadian wildfires ‘unprecedented,’ warns of climate change impact

Now, let’s hold that “thought” a moment, and go back to how “our free press” is “reporting” on the Kennedy campaign. As I noted yesterday, they’ve now begun to pivot from unanimous derision of a hopeless “long shot” presidential bid, by a famous crackpot with a golden name, to unanimous concern that that impulsive nut may actually be popular enough, if not to win the Democratic nomination (which the Democrats and “our free press” have rigged, or so they hope), at least to make things even harder for our good old president, “Joe Biden,” to be “re-elected” irrespective of the will of the electorate (just like Bush the Younger in 2004).
And as they’re not chortling anymore, but spooked at what may happen, “our free press,” in its desperation to maintain the status quo (and their own highly privileged place within it), is likely going to make its campaign “coverage” even worse from here on in—more biased, vicious and dishonest than it’s been thus far. (“The worst is not, / So long as we can say, ‘This is the worst.”) Whether it is possible to sink that low or not, in any case the purpose of their daily, hourly din will not be journalistic, to inform us thoroughly, and impartially, of what Bobby’s said and done. Its sole purpose, rather, will be prophylactic—to prevent our knowing what he’s said and done, and making us not want to follow him ourselves, with our own eyes and ears. What they want us to do, in short, is tell us what he says, and what he is, in hopes that we’ll believe them over him.
Thus the New York Times “reported” Bobby’s epic back-and-forth with Elon Musk by blacking out nearly all of it, in favor of the Times’ crude propaganda version of that conversation.
