Bret Weinstein nailed it the other day:
"How many of our governmental institutions do we need to witness performing the INVERSE of their intended function before we understand that we are under attack?
FEMA enflames disasters
DOD issues stand down orders to the most capable and well equipped Americans as fellow citizens needlessly die in the mountains
FDA authorizes poison and bans medicine
CDC causes diseases to spread and distributes misinformation
Homeland security facilitates an invasion
FBI instigates insurrection and hides evidence
NIH/NIAID literally creates infectious human pathogens that destroy health
It’s a struggle to find even a SINGLE counter example to this pattern
To be clear: I am not saying the people who staff these agencies are traitors. I’m sure most are well intentioned. I am saying something has apparently gained control of our system and turned it against us. Most of the people in these institutions are just following orders because they’re too young to understand where that leads.
This is not the pattern we would expect if the problem was simply one of corruption.
Once is a mistake, twice is a coincidence, three times is enemy action, as they say in military circles.
We’re now talking about dozens of institutions at every level of governance including international, hundreds of separate instances, a pattern occurring now across the West.
And it isn’t just a government problem. In fact, it would be impossible in 2024 for the government to cryptically turn on the citizens in a Democratic Republic without the press, the academy and social media platforms marching in lock step.
There is a strong argument to be made that “cancel culture” and vaccine mandates were needed to cleanse the institutions of would-be resistors.
So the question is, what now?"
