270 Angry Scientists Cite MSM ''Fact Checks'' In Open Letter Urging Spotify To Censor Joe Rogan You knew it was coming Two weeks after Joe Rogan interviewed mRNA inventor Dr. Robert Malone on his podcast - which boasts 11 million viewers on average - an angry letter brigade of 270 doctors and scientists have written an open letter to Spotify to demand they censor Rogan and implement a Covid-19 "misinformation policy," so that people, even highly trained virologist-immunologists such as Malone, can''t contradict ''the science.'' Getting down to their core argument: In episode #1757, Rogan hosted Dr. Robert Malone, who was suspended from Twitter for spreading misinformation about COVID-19. Dr. Malone used the JRE platform to further promote numerous baseless claims, including several falsehoods about COVID-19 vaccines and an unfounded theory that societal leaders have hypnotized the public.

Fourth Turning 2022: Bad-Moon Rising Authored by Jim Quinn via The Burning Platform blog, Try to unlearn the obsessive fear of death (and the anxious quest for death avoidance) that pervades linear thinking in nearly every modern society. The ancients knew that, without periodic decay and death, nature cannot complete its full round of biological and social change. Without plant death, weeds would strangle the forest. Without human death, memories would never die, and unbroken habits and customs would strangle civilization. Social institutions require no less. Just as floods replenish soil and fires rejuvenate forests, a Fourth Turning clears out societys exhausted elements and creates an opportunity. Strauss & Howe The Fourth Turning Institutions will be increasingly bossy, limiting personal freedoms, chastising bad manners, and cleansing the culture. Powerful new civic organizations will make judgments about which individual rights deserve respect and which do not. Criminal justice will become swift and rough, trampling on some innocents to protect an endangered and desperate society from those feared to be guilty.
