Last week’s Kafkaesque trial of Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi for “incitement of the masses” and “trivialization or belittlement of the Holocaust” is a flagrant example of the abuse of these ludicrous hatred of speech laws:
As Sucharit’s defense attorney, Professor Martin Schwab, stated in the courtroom:
“This is not about anti-Semitism, it is about the fear of those who are responsible for the crimes committed during that false pandemic. They fear that Professor Bhakdi might be called as witness for the prosecution in the tribunal against them once all of this is over.”
What we need is to start using an approach right out of the controllers’ playbook. Just keep attacking their lies, cruelty, ignorance and sociopathic behavior. Keep repeating it to the point where everyone is aware - make it so loud that it rings in every ear.
I always look back to the early days of Stupid 19 and the even darker times in the years leading up to it - there were so few people who could see through the matrix. It could often feel very lonely. But now the tide is turning despite media silence and denial as millions are waking up. And our determination is tearing down the wall which was the whole point of Roger Waters epic opus.
Amen ... call them exactly what they are, shine a bright light on their slimy, dishonest tactics, and expose their lies and tricks to as many people as possible.
And those of us who are Jewish and see this mind-f#cking of the masses need not only to call out the bullshit, but mock the Lizard People (ha ha). I'm ashamed of the people I know who are Jewish in Name Only...I've dubbed them JINOs. They scare me more than any neo-Nazi loser.
even someone as reasonable as Bari Weiss has called for the very word Holocaust to be reserved for this singular event and criticized "anti-vaxxers" for comparing mask and vaccine mandates to what happened then. the problem is, i don't think it was all that singular. sure it might be the only time that germans pushed jews into ovens but it is not more important to rwandans than their rwandan genocide, not more important to cambodians than what happened under the khmer rouge, not more important to chinese than the mass deaths during the cultural revolution or to russians than stalin's gulags and famines.
we just saw most of the world, even the supposedly "safe" united states make giant leaps towards accepting, advocating for and justifying what happened in nazi germany, maybe not in the details, but certainly metaphorically.
it is human nature to despise "the other." from despise, it's a short step to wishing to eliminate. governments actively pushed their impressionable citizens down that path. we narrowly dodged the bullet but only because it became obvious that covid was not as bad as advertised and the vaccines did not work as promised. we got lucky.
Bari spent a few too many years writing for The NY Times, the Blue Pill Bible where many who jump in deep into the most convincing propaganda never break out of its web of deception. For her to turn around and face reality is a lot to hope for.
I appreciate all that you said here. Curious, what bullet did we (the US, I presume) dodge, as the powers that be tell us the next pandemic is heading down the track targeting children, specifically, with an 80% kill rate? Given that this overarching global fascist plan has been patiently in motion for at least a hundred years, do you really think "it became obvious that covid was not as bad as advertised and the vaccines did not work as promised"? It sure became obvious to some of us, but did that actually change anything except in our own lives? If so, I can't see it. It seems more like a pause to offer a false sense of security, of change, of "return to normal" before the next destructive round. With the economy going down, massive efforts underway to destroy the REAL health-giving food supply and CBDC in clear motion, to name a few, we are still primarily going with that flow in acceptance of it if not in deed, not wanting to make waves, lose friends or live from the Truth of where we're being herded. It is a grievous matter that we're allowing this to happen to us, assisting it, giving it tacit permission. Will the necessary rising up ever have the massive numbers necessary to alter the flow beyond a minute here and a minute there? I have no idea. I don't see it now. I'd love to be wrong.
The old school liberal native NYers Im close to who (still) subscribe to the Grey Lady, even if they know of its sordid history, from Walter Duranty to Judith Miller, WMDs etc , jus like you wrote:
Ever and anon there are Jewish rebels, poets, musicians and free-thinkers who have openly opposed the uber agenda of organizations such as the Anti-Defecation League and similar gatekeepers. Names like Aubrey Marcus and Aaron Mate' exemplify this constant counter-balancing of truth seeking Jewish rebels. Their numbers are growing. Blessed Be.
I think about Dr Zev Zelenko often who was not just a brilliant courageous physician but a mensch of the highest level. In 2021 he spoke to rabbinical councils in both Israel and here in New York calling for sanity and cessation of the deadly clot shots. Fortunately his warning got through to he American Orthodox Rabbis who issued a recommendation to not give them to children. Who knows how many lives were saved and how much suffering prevented?
And the propagandists have already labeled any and all of them "self-hating Jews". The real problem is the power structure has had decades to prepare their operational plan, and as part of the process have gutted the part of education needed to develop critical thinking skills. As a result, generations are trained that all things come as X vs. Y, and only one is the "correct" answer. And anyone who dares challenge the "correct" answer is disseminating "misinformation". Sadly, it works.
One thing I've learned about these people is that they are cowards. When exposed to the light, they melt quickly. They appear to double down, but that is their fear response in motion, and you know you are succeeding. A perfect example is the persecutor/prosecutor in Germany re: Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi. A full-blown clown dancing his corruption dance in public view.
They will, when challenged, invariably resort to name-calling and/or deflection, in some cases shoving the discussion so far in a new direction their responses make no sense whatsoever but are clearly designed to put their challenger on the defensive. I usually stop playing at that point.
The powers which have been are devolving psychologically and emotionally into a flopping mass of protoplasm. Their grand schemes for full metastastization of plans for total world control are going down in flames faster than the few remaining aircraft of the Ukrainian air-farce.
So they lash out with this threadbare "antisemitization" shtick, strumming on their dolorous harpstrings all the while. Quietly and at times subconsciously, people right across the planet are becoming cynical, suspicious and occasionally outraged on these mass attacks on their developing perspectives of a different reality from that propounded by the shotcallers and their various minions and stooges.
Hans Christian Andersen presented us with a marvelous level of prescience in his "Emperor's New Clothes". The Bass-Turds are exposing themselves in all their stark nakedness, wounded weenies and sagging mammories in full view...presenting a not very pretty picture of their Thanatopian denials of truth, honor, justice and love.
I’m with you on Mel Brooks as the master of anti-anti-semitism. Can you even imagine trying to get Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, or The Producers made today?? Poor Mel would be tarred and feathered as a Jewish Anti-Semite.
It's true and correct to call these people as the liars and frauds that they are. They are morons of course, but it's not like they don't know they are lying. They know and they don't care because they hold all of us in contempt. They should be treated as they deserve - with scorn and derision.
Some, maybe. But if you examine some of the rhetoric, it's actually brilliant how they can take an obvious thing, twist it into something else, and get their supposedly intelligent base to buy it. The wet market nonsense, for instance.
We need more columns like this...more people to understand that these anti-hate NGOs and non-profits are exactly the opposite of what they purport to be. Soros is a MONSTER. I say this all the time, out loud and on 'paper' (social). The ADL is a GloboCap-Technocrat organization that blackmails dissenters. The ADL culls for cancellation, de-personing. It is baffling to me how stupid and blind Jewish family and friends are to the distinction between the counterfeit & the legit. It scares the crap out of me. These are the same people who think only the government should have the guns.
It's like a last resort. When all other smearing, demonization and degrading of their opponents doesn't work well enough, they come up with the anti-semitism card. In the Netherlands they now attack two alternative media with this smearing. But they have overplayed their cards. More and more people see through their lies. I'm convinced that the house of cards is falling.
Maybe it's time to bring down the Abrahamic experiment that has its origins in Athens rather than Jerusalem. I'm all for 12 Olympian gods as a replacement/reinstatement.
“The evidence before the court...is incontrovertible...there’s no need for the jury to retire! Since, my friend, you have revealed your deepest fears...I sentence you to be EXPOSED BEFORE YOUR PEERS!!”
The hatred for Roger Waters has been going on for a while now. Why? Is he anti-jab? Pro-Palestinian?
In his 2017 concert tour he was a Leftist in good standing--mocking and expressing contempt for Donald Trump thereby marring an otherwise excellent show.
A few months ago on a hit job linked from the Yahoo home page, I commented that "Roger Waters IS Pink Floyd." (Fact check: TRUE) Within minutes the comment was scrubbed.
For every anti-semite hunted down by these organizations, hundreds are created. People notice patterns, CJ, whether you care to admit it or not.
As I reflect on that long-ago symbolism so artfully deployed by Pink Floyd, in both live shows and all of their media (perhaps the best use of Orwellian symbology in art ever?), their prescience is stunning - how they peered into the recent past and saw this future, this now. And now poor Roger has “been caught red-handed...showing feelings” and the image of the faceless rag-doll (who will ultimately be any or all of us) facing the Judge (judgement itself!) in the climax of the opera takes on the most poignant association.
The vision was clear to Waters well before The Wall...”wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerily out of oblivion...into the dream” - Sheep, Animals
Mr Waters as another poster pointed out created Pink Floyd and helped make todays music a visual medium . He is one of the original guitar gods .That he is one of the wealthiest Englishmen mostly goes unnoticed , I wonder who handles his investment portfolio ? Perhaps as a tax deduction he could build a school for Palestinian orphans , or a summer camp like the one the Norwegians built for their temporary workers with somewhat mixed results ?
Of course. By demanding special pleading, by insisting that any criticism of Israel (NOT Jews, but Israel) is antisemitism indistinguishable from Himmler or Goebbels, the anti-antisemites create more genuine antisemites than all the neonazi message boards ever created.
Yes. How many people hate blacks now? They heard "racism" "racism" "racism" all the time coupled with black lives matters being plastered on walls, lawns and sports and it really created more black haters. Every time I hear them use "anti-semitic" I just cringe and know it must be false.
I don't hate black people, but I do not support or like the BLM movement. They are the ultimate evil - using their own people as pawns in a game that makes those in their group rich and makes life harder, poorer and less safe for those they are supposedly standing up for.
The agenda goes back to the creator of our current utterly messed up calendar, where the alleged "New Year" occurs in the depths of winter during the celestial month of Capricorn. The creator of that calendar was Julius Caesar. The true message of said Anus Dominated calendar has been updated as the "Rules Based Order".
So who makes the rules? Simple enough. They are the same bunch of titled aristocraps and their various minions and stooges who have been ruling the roost ever since the Emperor Constantine created the "Holy Bible" and the mytholization known somewhat covertly as the JudieChristieMagickMindfuck.
Western peoples have been subjected to this form of pyramidal rulership to the point where most individuals are nearly totally unaware of their own tribal and magical roots which were assiduously removed by the practitioners of priestcraft and warcraft. The descriptive word is "deracinated". Meaning is simply de-rooted. Without a coherent set of cultural bonding, The ruptured republic formerly known as America, is the most rootless political entity on the planet.
However, the number and proportion of awakeners is expanding exponentially. Thus, canards such as "racism" and "antisemitism" are thrown at the brick wall in the hopes that some of the shit will stick.
The thing about anti-semites is that if you're not Jewish then you'll be suspected of being one by someone, somewhere (I think it was Ariel Sharon who said that all goys were anti-semites). And if you are Jewish but go too left or too right then you'll just be "self hating". Very tyrannical. Where's the tyrant though?
It ain't like any or vast majority of those newly minted anti-.... are calling for any action, rounding up, or any violence, but can they at least notice it, say so openly without the same old attacks..
We're in an epochal paradigm shift in more than one way eh.. the cat is out of the bag, the ones who are noticing can't go back to being ones who haven't noticed, unless they self administer heavy doses of cognitive dissonance or whatever.. both extremely frightening while also exciting times we're in, no telling what exactly the near future will bring other than identifying a few wildly disparate outcomes and wondering whch ones will it be 🤔
"Delegitimizing the state" is the most honest part of all of that, though dissenters aren't deligitimizing the state as much as pointing out that the state is not legitimate.
During the Nineteen-Thirties, the Constitution and more importantly the Bill of Rights, was quietly subsumed by the creation of the United $tates of America Corporation, duly registered under the corporate statutes of the state of DuPont (aka Delaware).
The court systems throughout the fruited plain, particularly at the Feral level, have achieved near total corruption. Case in point: The conviction level by U.$. District courts have now reached and are gradually surpassing a 99% conviction-rate. One cannot face a jury of your peers under this corporate Maritime "legal" (but certainly not lawful) system.
At the Feral administration level, there now exist no fewer than 17 "intelligence" agencies whose primary mission as currently evident is to "combat domestic terrorism". If one openly opposes the metastasizing dictatorship of the self-appointed "elites", then one axiomatically achieves the status of an "enemy of the $tate".
It's all about greed, money and power, generated by and specializing in impositional fear memes.
It's masterful how soulless globalist gangsters, techno/fascists, and psycho banksters have gotten so much mileage using the Holocaust funded by Western industrialists to denigate personal liberty. It's as nutsy as the drones flying over China's smart surveillance cities during lockdowns loudly professing: "compliance to collective imprisonment is devotion to the state."😁

Mockery, satire & humor are very effective counters to totalitarianism. So keep up the good fight CJ. I was reminded of how effective mockery can be thinking about how Dan Savage, the San Francisco sex advice columnist, renamed the foamy secretions of anal sex "Santorum" in response to Rick Santorum's rabid homophobia. If you googled Santorum, it was the first thing to come up on the search engine for many years. I don't think Santorum will ever live that down and it most likely contributed to the failing of his political career.
Very well written, CJ. Thank you for this excellent post. I have been called an anti-Semite numerous times, and @Caitlin Johnstone even banned me from her substack thinking I was one. Although not as good as your post I wrote an open letter to her here: https://greaterisrahell.substack.com/p/open-letter-to-caitlin-johnstone
Just because the majority of the board members of the fifty largest financial institutions in the world JUST HAPPEN TO BE JEWISH (I prefer the term East European Ashkenazim Khazar) , and I point that out, that is enough for people like her to get unhinged and ban me.
I will openly and proudly admit I am an anti-Zionist, and that I detest the state of Israel. The one is a racist ideology. The other is a racist apartheid government occupying territory that they have no rights to.
I support what Roger Waters has done for the past 40 plus years 100%.
I don’t think the morons are being given a fair shake here. It is not enough to label someone a moron and have that be the end of the discussion. There are plenty of us morons out here living kickass lives too , ya know. We deserve free speech as much as the fact checkers and arbiters of TRUF don’t we? That I have to ask, of course, proves I am a moron...
"Moron", like "idiot" and "imbecile" were words created by the US eugenics movement to designate differing levels of learning disability. I suspect it's being used ironically, given the substance of the essay. 🙂
Just like the gross overuse of “racism”, the antisemitism charge is being so insanely over applied and misused that it’s becoming completely meaningless, and I’m personally ceasing to care about the difference between someone saying “globalism” and someone being a full fledged neo-Nazi with a swastika tattoo on their forehead.
I just don’t give a shit anymore, because I’m sick and tired of hearing about it!
These constant whiners need to STFU for at least a little while, or else we will tune them out completely!
Last week’s Kafkaesque trial of Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi for “incitement of the masses” and “trivialization or belittlement of the Holocaust” is a flagrant example of the abuse of these ludicrous hatred of speech laws:
• “Profiles in Courage: Prof. Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi” (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/profiles-in-courage-prof-dr-sucharit)
You couldn’t find a gentler, more peaceful human being than Sucharit, and in a rare instance of legal justice, he was exonerated with a Not Guilty ruling (https://neveragainisnowglobal.substack.com/p/sucharit-bhakdi-how-a-humble-man), which the chief public prosecutor has already appealed (of course).
As Sucharit’s defense attorney, Professor Martin Schwab, stated in the courtroom:
“This is not about anti-Semitism, it is about the fear of those who are responsible for the crimes committed during that false pandemic. They fear that Professor Bhakdi might be called as witness for the prosecution in the tribunal against them once all of this is over.”
What we need is to start using an approach right out of the controllers’ playbook. Just keep attacking their lies, cruelty, ignorance and sociopathic behavior. Keep repeating it to the point where everyone is aware - make it so loud that it rings in every ear.
I always look back to the early days of Stupid 19 and the even darker times in the years leading up to it - there were so few people who could see through the matrix. It could often feel very lonely. But now the tide is turning despite media silence and denial as millions are waking up. And our determination is tearing down the wall which was the whole point of Roger Waters epic opus.
Amen ... call them exactly what they are, shine a bright light on their slimy, dishonest tactics, and expose their lies and tricks to as many people as possible.

Yes, that is why I published the letter from Jewish groups condemning the weaponization of “anti-semite” to crush dissidents:
• “Requiem for a Smear Victim: Clemens Arvay” (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/requiem-for-a-smear-victim-clemens)
even someone as reasonable as Bari Weiss has called for the very word Holocaust to be reserved for this singular event and criticized "anti-vaxxers" for comparing mask and vaccine mandates to what happened then. the problem is, i don't think it was all that singular. sure it might be the only time that germans pushed jews into ovens but it is not more important to rwandans than their rwandan genocide, not more important to cambodians than what happened under the khmer rouge, not more important to chinese than the mass deaths during the cultural revolution or to russians than stalin's gulags and famines.
we just saw most of the world, even the supposedly "safe" united states make giant leaps towards accepting, advocating for and justifying what happened in nazi germany, maybe not in the details, but certainly metaphorically.
it is human nature to despise "the other." from despise, it's a short step to wishing to eliminate. governments actively pushed their impressionable citizens down that path. we narrowly dodged the bullet but only because it became obvious that covid was not as bad as advertised and the vaccines did not work as promised. we got lucky.

During the Nineteen-Thirties, the Constitution and more importantly the Bill of Rights, was quietly subsumed by the creation of the United $tates of America Corporation, duly registered under the corporate statutes of the state of DuPont (aka Delaware).
The court systems throughout the fruited plain, particularly at the Feral level, have achieved near total corruption. Case in point: The conviction level by U.$. District courts have now reached and are gradually surpassing a 99% conviction-rate. One cannot face a jury of your peers under this corporate Maritime "legal" (but certainly not lawful) system.
At the Feral administration level, there now exist no fewer than 17 "intelligence" agencies whose primary mission as currently evident is to "combat domestic terrorism". If one openly opposes the metastasizing dictatorship of the self-appointed "elites", then one axiomatically achieves the status of an "enemy of the $tate".
It's all about greed, money and power, generated by and specializing in impositional fear memes.
It's masterful how soulless globalist gangsters, techno/fascists, and psycho banksters have gotten so much mileage using the Holocaust funded by Western industrialists to denigate personal liberty. It's as nutsy as the drones flying over China's smart surveillance cities during lockdowns loudly professing: "compliance to collective imprisonment is devotion to the state."😁
Mockery, satire & humor are very effective counters to totalitarianism. So keep up the good fight CJ. I was reminded of how effective mockery can be thinking about how Dan Savage, the San Francisco sex advice columnist, renamed the foamy secretions of anal sex "Santorum" in response to Rick Santorum's rabid homophobia. If you googled Santorum, it was the first thing to come up on the search engine for many years. I don't think Santorum will ever live that down and it most likely contributed to the failing of his political career.
If Waters were making the same statements, but in favor of the war on Ukraine, there would be no controversy.
Very well written, CJ. Thank you for this excellent post. I have been called an anti-Semite numerous times, and @Caitlin Johnstone even banned me from her substack thinking I was one. Although not as good as your post I wrote an open letter to her here: https://greaterisrahell.substack.com/p/open-letter-to-caitlin-johnstone
Just because the majority of the board members of the fifty largest financial institutions in the world JUST HAPPEN TO BE JEWISH (I prefer the term East European Ashkenazim Khazar) , and I point that out, that is enough for people like her to get unhinged and ban me.
I will openly and proudly admit I am an anti-Zionist, and that I detest the state of Israel. The one is a racist ideology. The other is a racist apartheid government occupying territory that they have no rights to.
I support what Roger Waters has done for the past 40 plus years 100%.
I don’t think the morons are being given a fair shake here. It is not enough to label someone a moron and have that be the end of the discussion. There are plenty of us morons out here living kickass lives too , ya know. We deserve free speech as much as the fact checkers and arbiters of TRUF don’t we? That I have to ask, of course, proves I am a moron...
Your point being what, exactly?
"Moron", like "idiot" and "imbecile" were words created by the US eugenics movement to designate differing levels of learning disability. I suspect it's being used ironically, given the substance of the essay. 🙂
Just like the gross overuse of “racism”, the antisemitism charge is being so insanely over applied and misused that it’s becoming completely meaningless, and I’m personally ceasing to care about the difference between someone saying “globalism” and someone being a full fledged neo-Nazi with a swastika tattoo on their forehead.
I just don’t give a shit anymore, because I’m sick and tired of hearing about it!
These constant whiners need to STFU for at least a little while, or else we will tune them out completely!
The antisemitism canard will be used as long as it remains a convenient stick to beat one's enemies with.
Facts, evidence and logic do not matter. Only my team, right or wrong.
