"... fears that Bolshevik influences might be at work in the AIF and that the returning soldiers carried with them the germs of something more potent than influenza." It's like reading an account of what's gone on the last year, right down to pro and anti-mask arguments; staying six feet apart; the closure of theaters, schools, churches etc. and so much else. It even recounts the left using it as a way to cause trouble! http://honesthistory.net.au/wp/wp-content/uploads/SpanishFlu-1919.pdf https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/02/03/cdc-mask-order-will-be-further-enforced-by-federal-authorities/ https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/osha-releases-list-of-businesses-facing-covid-violation-fines/ar-BB1cn3ry https://www.safetyandhealthmagazine.com/articles/20691-dol-final-rule-aimed-at-improving-debt-collection-efforts

The data suggest that both medical and non-medical facemasks are ineffective to block human-to-human transmission of viral and infectious disease such SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, supporting against the usage of facemasks. Wearing facemasks has been demonstrated to have substantial adverse physiological and psychological effects. These include hypoxia, hypercapnia, shortness of breath, increased acidity and toxicity, activation of fear and stress response, rise in stress hormones, immunosuppression, fatigue, headaches, decline in cognitive performance, predisposition for viral and infectious illnesses, chronic stress, anxiety and depression. Long-term consequences of wearing facemask can cause health deterioration, developing and progression of chronic diseases and premature death. Governments, policy makers and health organizations should utilize prosper and scientific evidence-based approach with respect to wearing facemasks, when the latter is considered as preventive intervention for public health. https://nationalfile.com/study-chemical-that-causes-penile-shrinkage-found-in-face-masks/

After a month, 42 of the mask-wearers in the study (1.8 percent) were infected with the virus while 53 of the non-mask-wearers (2.1. percent) were infected with the virus. Statistically, this is not a significant difference between the two groups. https://thefederalist.com/2020/11/18/major-study-finds-masks-dont-reduce-covid-19-infection-rates/ “In the 34 states whose hapless citizens still endure stringent mask mandates, the average number of COVID-19 deaths per 100,000 residents is 308. In the 16 states run by “Neanderthals,” the average death rate per 100,000 residents is 156. This is consistent with a new study released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that suggests statewide mask mandates have produced no significant decrease in COVID-19 death rates. This reality is buried beneath a specious summary and five paragraphs of bureaucratic argle-bargle. Readers who survive the slog to paragraph six will find that mask mandates are “associated” with minuscule decreases in “death growth rates.”” https://spectator.org/biden-covid-neanderthal-thinking/ “Surveys showed mask usage reached about 80% by midsummer last year and has remained consistent since then. During that period, however, the number of daily positive cases rose and fell precipitously. Many epidemiologists have noted the coronavirus, in a second major wave, is following the bell-shaped pattern of epidemics predicted by Farr's Law in 1840, regardless of mitigation efforts.” https://www.wnd.com/2021/03/government-data-shows-masks-no-impact-covid-spread/ Keep digging through this crap and eventually you always find the poison of their own faulty theoretical model underlying the data, and everything above it being stacked layers of recommendations, “may be”s, “is considered”s, and “associated with”s. For example, the CDC uses a study to make the claim “Mask mandates are associated with reductions in COVID-19 case and hospitalization growth rates” https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7010e3.htm Go to read that study and you find... “...projected the number of averted COVID-19 cases with the mandates for face mask use in public by comparing actual cumulative daily cases with daily cases predicted by the model if none of the states had enacted the public face cover mandate at the time they did..” https://www.healthaffairs.org/doi/10.1377/hlthaff.2020.00818 A good ‘non-biased’ starting point that presents the studies used, with a couple great graphs https://aapsonline.org/mask-facts/ • Give the false impression that a balance of evidence now proves that masks reduce the transmission of COVID-19 • Falsely assimilate commentary made in scientific venues with “evidence” • Hide the fact that a decade’s worth of policy-grade evidence proves the opposite: that masks are ineffective with viral respiratory diseases • Hide the fact that there is now direct observational proof that cloth masks do not prevent exhalation of clouds of suspended aerosol particles; above, below and through the masks • Deter attention away from the considerable known harms and risks due to face masks, applied to entire populations The said harms and risks include that a cloth mask becomes a culture medium for a large variety of bacterial pathogens, and a collector of viral pathogens; given the hot and humid environment and the constant source, where home fabrics are hydrophilic whereas medical masks are hydrophobic. In short, I argue: op-eds are not “evidence”, irrelevance does not help, and more bias does not remove bias. Their mantra of “a growing body of evidence” is a self-serving contrivance that impedes good science and threatens public safety. I prove that there is no policy-grade evidence to support forced masking on the general population, and that all the latest-decade’s policy-grade evidence points to the opposite: NOT recommending forced masking of the general population. Therefore, the politicians and health authorities are acting without legitimacy and recklessly.” https://www.killingontario.com/mirror/growing-body-of-evidence-mantra-is-a-body-of-lies-eh.pdf

RCT's (Randomized, Controlled Trials) are the absolute best-quality evidence the scientists have on the subject. And they tell masks do not work: WHO meta-analysis on RCT's about masks (2019): https://www.who.int/influenza/publications/public_health_measures/publication/en/ "OVERALL RESULT OF EVIDENCE ON FACE MASKS

1. Ten RCTs were included in the meta-analysis, and there was no evidence that face masks are effective in reducing transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza." "Quality of evidence
2. There is a moderate overall quality of evidence that face masks do not have a substantial effect on transmission of influenza."

The largest meta-analysis on the subject, with over 3000 studies gone through / analyzed: "Physical interventions to interrupt or reduce the spread of respiratory viruses" https://www.cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.1002/14651858.CD006207.pub5/epdf/standard 20 November 2020 "What are the results of the review?

1. Medical or surgical masks Seven studies took place in the community, and two studies in healthcare workers. Compared with wearing no mask, [b]wearing a mask may make little to no difference[/b] in how many people caught a flu-like illness (9 studies; 3507 people); and probably makes no difference in how many people have flu confirmed by a laboratory test (6 studies; 3005 people). Unwanted effects were rarely reported, but included discomfort."
2. "Medical/surgical masks compared to no masks We included nine trials (of which eight were cluster-RCTs) comparing medical/surgical masks versus no masks to prevent the spread of viral respiratory illness (two trials with healthcare workers and seven in the community). There is low certainty evidence from nine trials (3507 participants) that wearing a mask may make little or no difference to the outcome of influenza like illness (ILI) compared to not wearing a mask (risk ratio (RR) 0.99, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.82 to 1.18."

A widely reported Finnish meta-analysis on masks, which at first has results that favor mask-use, but after correcting only one of the mistakes in the study, has RR>1 for masks (=masks have no effect / increase infections): (The largest data error is regarding the Larson 2010 numbers in the study, they took "number of people with no symptoms" in stead of "number of people with symptoms") https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.07.31.20166116v2.full.pdf December 2, 2020

"So why do the surgeons use them?!?" The most recent meta-analysis on surgeon / operating theatre mask use: masks increase infections: "Are facemasks a priority for all staff in theatre to prevent surgical site infections during shortages of supply? A systematic review and meta-analysis" Marson 07.10.2020 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7539019/ "The pooled effect of not wearing facemasks was a risk ratio for infection of 0.77 (0.62–0.97) in favour of not wearing masks." (All the previous meta-analyses on operating theatre mask use have same results, I can post you 6 another ones if you want to)

WHO Chief Scientist Slips — Makes Terrifying Vaccine Admission Once again, the WHO has stepped in to offer some confusing comments about the coronavirus vaccine, warning that there is “no evidence to be confident shots prevent transmission” and that people who receive the vaccine should continue wearing masks and following all social distancing and travel guidelines. The comments were made by WHO chief scientist Soumya Swaminathan during what appears to have been a virtual press conference held Monday. https://twitter.com/i/status/1343620091695538179 "I don't believe we have the evidence on any of the vaccines to be confident that it's going to prevent people from actually getting the infection and therefore being able to pass it on”, says WHO Chief Scientist @doctorsoumya A clip of the offending line has begun circulating on social media. “At the moment, I don’t believe we have the evidence on any of the vaccines, to be confident that it’s going to prevent people from getting the infection and passing it on,” Of course, a close look at the research released by Pfizer and Moderna shows the studies haven’t actually tested whether the vaccines actually prevent transmission of the virus; the goal of the trials was to see whether vaccinated patients presented with COVID symptoms at a rate that was substantially less frequent than individuals who hadn’t been vaccinated. That’s pretty much it. Though the data might hint at lowering transmission rates, that’s still tbd, apparently for more information go to this link here: https://wethepeopledaily.com/2020/12/29/who-chief-scientist-slips-makes-terrifying-vaccine-admission/ Just sharing this.

I've read articles about communists using masks to break the people's will before in past societies, and about masks being connected to occultism. I'd welcome any links to articles about these topics you can provide.

Additionally any anecdotes or good search terms I can use to do more research. Any good jumping off point.

Straightforward question: Is Trump Derangement Syndrome still affecting the people around you, or has it lessened now that the media has stopped whipping its slaves?

Abstract question: Could Trump Derangement Syndrome have been a culture-wide demonic possession symptom? I never believed in demonic possession until the last year or two but now it seems I see the world through new lenses. Actually a serious question.

I'm looking for links to videos of the chaos surrounding the Ashli Babbit shooting. Specifically videos with the CNN reporter, the antifa man who was on Anderson Copper that night, and the Russian hat guy who was probably an undercover cop.

Hot damn,

I just got discriminated against due to my minority status and indisputable physical characteristics.

Who should I contact to help represent me against Nextdoor?

The tragic part was that a Leftist had infiltrated a closed, nonpublic conservative group and was kicking up dirt and got me banned out of the whole platform for expressing myself in a closed room they shouldn't have been in. The levels of hatred they have for us is historically unprecedented.

It has been less than a week since the changeover in forum structure and since the "rogue mod" drama.

"Rogue mod" may have been right. TDW / Patriots is now under full, unrestrained assault and infiltration from hardcore race-motivated bad actors, Leftist race baiters, Leftist Anti-semitism, black joke bad actors... you name it.

Having chosen to allow these bad actors to multiply, the mods are now tacitly endorsing these practices. Patriots.win has become exactly what the loathsome Leftists used to accuse us of being. These accusations used to be false.

Now, in the week after America's loss of Trump, the best pro-Trump, pro-American forums (us!) has become a rallying point for white supremacists.

The mods are backing the bad actors, the Leftists, and the shills. This has become shill-world.

We can't focus on real discussion or isolating real-world problems in an intelligent manner when so much energy is spent trying to guard the gates. This is doubly true now that the mod team is basically escorting them in and covering them from behind.

Loving America is not white supremacy. Being conservative is not white supremacy. Hard work, optimism, perservance, focus and determination, faith in a power higher than ourselves. None of these wonderful outlooks which strengthen our bonds as people, and improve not only America but the entire world - none of these are white supremacy.

When the Leftists call us "white supremacists," it's a lie. We know it. They know it.

However white supremacists are real, and if the mods of Patriots.win have decided that it's a-ok for them to build a beachhead here and storm our shores, then the Leftists will have become correct. That's not a forum that I will be able to engage in.

Is there any tool I can use to backup or download my saved content from here? The thought of manually downloading each page individually sounds tedious. Oh, but I'll do it. This is the source for news.

Did anyone see something about Pence supposedly speaking tonight?

It's supposed to be on the topic of Trump's health. Also I think that I heard something a few days ago about him suffering from extreme fatigue and stress after the Wednesday events.

I don't trust the situation with Trump apparently holed up in the White House with all the bad people surrounding him.

For those traveling to DC on Jan. 6th, this is information from a native to the area:

I would like to share with you what I will be doing this time and what I have done for the last two rallies...

1/ I will be taking the Metro from Maryland. I strongly recommend taking the Metro from either Maryland or Virginia because I expect roads to be closed 5 blocks around the event site. Since it is midweek, I also do not trust the garages to be open to the public.

2/ If taking the Metro, I recommend coming from the Virginia side over the Maryland side. Virginians are significantly nicer and there will be more rally attendees coming from that direction.

3/ If taking the Metro, plan on purchasing a pass from machines that are in questionable working order. If you can do this ahead of time, you will save yourself time and frustration.

4/ Living in this area, I do not put anything on my vehicle indicating that I am a conservative and leave it unattended simply because my car would be vandalized. Do so at your own risk.

5/ I have attended the last two events and I have felt perfectly safe (granted, what I lack in size, I make up for in attitude). Have a plan. Decide when you are arriving and when you are leaving. I plan on leaving around 4pm for safety and traffic reasons.

6/ DO NOT ENTER BLM PLAZA. If the Proud Boys show up this time like they did last time, there shouldn't be an issue, but please, AVOID BLM PLAZA.

7/ Do not plan on having cell service. During the last 2 events, there were so many people there, I was unable to send any outgoing messages. Plan accordingly by having meetup times & locations with your group if you get separated.

8/ Summary: - Take Metro if possible. - Have a plan. - Stay with a group. - Avoid BLM Plaza- Have fun! This is going to be historic! #FightForTRUMP #FightForFreedom #MillionMAGAMarchJan6DC

END/ Addendum: Screenshot a map of DC with metro stops marked in case you’re not able to pull it up on your phone. https://www.wmata.com/schedules/maps/upload/2019-System-Map.pdf …

Update to previous thread: Please note that I have prioritized answering DM's in case our gracious Tech Overlords decide I am no longer deserving of their platform. That being said, here are some answers to FAQ's...For those flying in:

-Dulles (IAD): There is a Metro bus that runs from the Rosslyn Metro Station to Dulles. Shuttles, cabs and Uber are also available. https://www.rosslynva.org/go/metrobus-5a-dc-dulles-airport …

-Reagan: There is a Metro stop at this airport. Uber and cabs are also available.

-BWI: Amtrak and MARC have trains that take you directly to Union Station, which is very close to Capitol Hill and where you can then take to Metro, and Uber or cab to other destinations in DC.Metro

tips: If you want to ride like a local, stand right, walk left. This means that while riding the escalators, stand on the right in order to allow those walking down them to pass on the left. You may even hear locals yelling this. Remember, this is a normal workday for many in DC. Millions rely on the Metro system for their daily commute and while they are accustomed to tourists, they also really appreciate being able to get to work on time.

Metro Fare: You will be required to purchase a SmarTrip card. These are now available online through their app. I highly encourage using this method. The machines are very confusing to use. https://www.wmata.com/fares/mobilepay/ …

Navigating Metro: Either screenshot or print a hard copy of the Metro map. The system is very easy to navigate, some of the stations, however, are not. Pay attention to the signs on the walls and pillars indicating which line you need to access. This may require going up an escalator and then back down another. Do not rely on the station managers to be on site or helpful. https://www.wmata.com/schedules/maps/upload/2019-System-Map.pdf …

Metro Accessibility: For those that require an elevator to access the Metro, please check the stations you will be riding to/from ahead of time to make sure that the elevators are working so that you can plan accordingly. https://www.wmata.com/service/elevators-escalators/Elevator-Escalator-Service-Status.cfm …

If you have any concerns about being “targeted” on Metro (or anywhere else in the city), I suggest carrying a backpack for your MAGA gear and to “de-Trump” as you leave the event site. I believe that this event will be historic and Patriots will be the majority. I have asked my local law enforcement sources, and they have no knowledge that Metro might shut down. The Mayor only has jurisdiction over DC and metro goes into MD and VA. Certain stations may temp close due to overcrowding but a whole system shutdown is improbable. Many Patriots are staying at hotels in or near the following locations:- Convention Center (Mt. Vernon Sq. Metro)- Capitol Hill- National Mall- Navy Yard- Crystal City (Metro stop same name)- Arlington (near Ballston metro).

There are many, many Patriots traveling solo to this event. If this applies to you, please know that you will not be alone. Chances are that you will be staying somewhere with many other Patriots. Connect with them, I am sure they will be happy to include you with their group.

Not sure about the restroom situation, but others have recommended the following apps: Sit or Squat https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sitorsquat-restroom-finder/id511855507 … Flush - The Toilet Finder https://apps.apple.com/us/app/flush-toilet-finder-map/id955254528 … You can follow @shnerdly.

Looking for general advice on what to look for in a helmet. My brain is my best part and deserves a good shell.

Best outlet? Prices ranges? Armor levels?

This has been rolling around in my gray matter all day.

The mainstream media is normalizing the idea of vaccine injuries being not only okay, but also an acceptable alternative to the virus they are meant to innoculate against.

Imagine if the Covid vaccine ends up creating massive medical problems in the future after bodies have had time to generate whatever negative side affects they are going to manifest. The Left will blame the deformities, illnesses and deaths on Trump.

This massive global untested vaccine push which the globalists have been excitedly moving towards for decades, which Gates, Fauci et al are going to attempt to force onto as many humans as possible despite the medical outcomes or the inclinations of the recipients. When and if it all goes ugly, however that may manifest, they are going to try and hang the results around Trump's neck and abdicate their own responsibility.

I was a child when the Berlin Wall fell. It may be one of my earliest political memories, the elation, relief, and joy surrounding the event marked good years ahead for the world.

Recently it has occurred to me that there must have been a great number of Americans who were dying on the inside when the wall fell. How many people living here must have been heartbroken over that sequence of events, and how many people to this day gather solemnly in secret and nurture their hatred for America?

If the shades were pulled back from the hearts of men and the lies became apparent, who would be outed as an enemy to their own country?

Would the New World / Great Reset move forward without America on board?

Hypothetically. If Trump were not currently in office, we would be nine months into the UN Great Reset plan right now. Trump being in office really screwed that plan up.

Trump gets in for four more years... what do they do? Move on without our involvement until 2024? Bomb us? Hold back in other parts of the globe until we can be the leader?
