    Indeed, "Buzzer" and "NaFinne" are plants now, to make conspiracy theorists look bad

    I wonder what either poster thinks of that..

    I am a member of boards for twenty years now while you are posting on a recently created, coward, shill account.....Hypocrite.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe



    I guess that answers that

    Sleeper agent until Covid. Great plan by your bosses. Seeing that they’ve been working on the Great Reset all that time, and Covid helps them implement it.

    Last year we were told they spilled the beans in a song, this year it's an anagram. Apparently it hasn't occurred to the Evil Conspirators to just release it on Facebook and Twitter if they're so keen for people to know about it.

    However, if these "anagrams" are somehow accidentally revealing the truth, then the E.C.s' computers should be very easy to hack because they must be even worse at picking passwords.

    What ever happened with the Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Theta, Iota, Kappa, Lambda, Mu, Nu and Xi variants? We're really shooting through them here. Soon we'll have to go back to naming them after whichever country a pangolin has intercourse with a turtle again. Even though that was very racist (except when it was the china or UK variant).



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,487 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    Have you even tried to look it up, or do you think it’s a gotcha question?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,326 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    Ha! I just looked it up and they do exist, which is even more sad. (although they skipped the Xi variant so as not to offend Winnie the Pooh)

    You could not make this stuff up. (even though they do)

    Doesn't take much effort to Google these things:

    https://www.who.int/en/activities/tracking-SARS-CoV-2-variants/

    Lamda and Mu are listed on there for you, not sure why some of the other letters have been skipped, but fairly easy to figure out why Xi was missed and I would guess the clothing brand would be glad that Kappa was missed as well. ETA could be missed because it's already a well used acronym and Nu is probably confusingly close to Mu so best skip that as well.


    What is your theory for them having been missed?

    Edit: Seems that the first page on WHO didn't list the other irrelevant variants, but only Xi and Nu have been skipped according to this article:

    https://edition.cnn.com/2021/11/29/health/omicron-covid-variant-naming-cec/index.html



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    They exist

    The skipped over "Nu" because they said it was too confusing and "Xi" because it was too common and may have caused offense

    This information takes seconds to find out.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,326 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    It's bad that there is more backlash against covid measures in the non-conspiracy forums than there is here. You guys are doing a bang up job!



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,118 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    The majority of the public have consistently supported measures and over 92% of adults are vaccinated here. You don't just represent a minority, you represent an extreme fringe (anti-vax, conspiracy theorist, etc). Just like SARS, MERS, Swine Flu, Ebola - there were types who claimed it was all a conspiracy. The next pandemic will have the same response. There will always be paranoid/moronic/delusional people, it's an absolute.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,487 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    Yeah, so no conspiracy over the naming then. Thanks for confirming it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe



    It's a great little system these individuals have, all news and information is false unless it validates whatever bonkers conspiracy or world view they have. So whether it's a flat-earther or Covid conspiracist - it's the same handy system.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭deceit


    I'm curious how many of that 92% would support opening up fully and just living with it, like Florida? I'm fully vaxxed but I also do now believe that they will never let up on these policies as these people love the power it gave them and the likes of the vaccine passport / travel restrictions / masks are here to stay. Everyone I know who is fully vaxxed would fully agree with just opening up and don't support the lockdowns. Israel are on their 5th dose if I'm not mistaken and its not really preventing the spread. Why are we as a country not able to deal with it like Florida rather than going closer to the insane routes like Australia with their forced camps for people that have been in contact with covid cases or mandating vaccines in Germany where I currently am to see family. The last group in Germany that was doing stuff like that, we all know how they turned out.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    You seem to be suggesting that Irish politicians won't let go of anti-Covid policies because they "love the power it gave them". That's a bizarre opinion, do you think Irish TD's wake up wanting people to wear masks forever? Why would that be?

    Australia's quarantine facilities are for travelers. Did you just compare that to the persecution of the Jews in Germany?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,487 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    How many times has this thread been Godwined?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭deceit


    Yes I do suggest they are going to keep it around because the power it gives them.

    Also the camps in Australia are no longer only for travellers. They are now for Australians that are covid suspected. (An australian was arrested yesterday trying to escape one of the camps after he had a covid test come back negative).

    I'm not sure of the site below whether its trust worthy but seen it on the news yesterday so I googled to find this.

    https://www.oann.com/australian-man-arrested-for-escaping-quarantine-camp/



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,487 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    What benefit is it for politicians to keep themselves, their family, and the general public wearing masks when the pandemic is over?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,016 ✭✭✭✭The Nal


    Dublin City councillor on 16k a year, usually with another job, wants to lock themselves in their house.

    Makes sense doesnt it?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,487 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,326 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    What I say is tame compared to what the majority are saying in the dedicated Covid forum. People not getting thier children vaccinated, not making their children wear masks. People with the gall to describe the side effects of the vaccines they've been getting.

    Why don't you go over to those threads and ask questions? This Dangrious Misinformation needs to be addressed with questions before it's too late.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭deceit


    If its of no benefit to them why don't they get rid of Vaccine passports now that an investigation of the effectiveness of vaccine passports in Spain found they have no benefit on infection rates? (Study was carried out by Spain’s inter-regional Covid committee).

    The passports go in line with their global build back better agenda so even though it doesn't have any net positive for covid it will be used under this guise.



  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,118 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    Any link to show that they are not effective?



    Vaccination rates have increased in Germany over the last while as the talk of restrictions around vaccine passes has increased. That suggests that the passes work, their only reason for existing being as a stick to try and get more people vaccinated, the carrot of "not dying of covid" having not worked sufficiently on the German population.


    Edit: You have to look at the numbers over the far right of the chart, but shows that since lows in the middle of October the first dose rate has jumped back up again by the end of November.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    You seem to believe your local TD wants themselves and their families to wear masks forever because it makes them feel "powerful", that doesn't make a lick of sense.

    OANN is a far-right site. The facilities are used to quarantine travelers from abroad and people arriving in Australia, obviously if someone breaks quarantine they can be arrested like anywhere, which has already happened a few times.

    You think that's the "same" as pre-war German persecution of the Jews?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,487 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    I asked you what would the benefit to them be and you dodged the question. You are the one pushing the conspiracy, not me, so why can’t you explain it?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    Your views aren't tame. You are anti-vax, you believe the space program is fake, you think 911 was an "inside job", you think there is some Covid conspiracy you can't explain. What happens when you express those beliefs to family and friends?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,646 ✭✭✭✭Timberrrrrrrr


    .



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,323 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    And that the people behind the covid conspiracy are using coded anagrams in the names of the variants to do something...

    If that's considered "tame"...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭deceit


    The benefit is they can use this control to complete their build back better agenda of reset 2030. As they believe this will be better for themselves and maybe everyone but they know people wont willingly do it so they have to slowly boil the frog and these policies just help them implement it as they ever expand their controls under the guise of needing to implement them for our protection, if that was truely the case why is Florida free and fine. Australia are just further along in the process than other countries so far with their lunatic concentration camps which imprison people even after they have a negative covid test. Just as an aside, I don't believe covid is a joke/farce/whatever some say it is, but I do believe its used by scummy politicians to gain more control.

    To ask you one question, realistically covid is not going away and will be here for a long time. What way do you expect things to be in 10 years? Do you really think things will go back to normal or as politicans always say now, will we have "the new normal" which I'm guessing will be closer along the lines of the social credit system in China?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,326 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    You need to keep a ledger on who believes what. Your posts are befuddled and nonsensical.

    Is the reason you don't "ask questions" in the normal Covid forum because you know you will get banned for trolling?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    It's simple enough to remember, there aren't many prolific conspiracy theorists on this forum. I've posted and asked questions on the Covid forum, never been banned.

    You believe 1) the space program is fake 2) 911 was an "inside job" and 3) you are anti-vax (certainly Covid vaccines)

    Any of the above incorrect? Simply point it out.

    You've just dodged my question, here is it again, what happens when you express those beliefs to family and friends?

    Where is the evidence to support this conspiracy between all world leaders from 2019 onwards, and many have changed already and many more will change before 2030. Why would they be carrying out some mad conspiracy that isn't happening until 2030 when none of them are likely to still be in power, and why hasn't anyone who has been elected in the last couple of years not exposed the conspiracy?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    What is going to happen in 2030 according to you?

    Let me get this straight, you believe Irish politicians are obsessed with "controlling" their constituents, they also want to wear masks forever, and they want a "social credit" system. Okay. Name the Irish politicians who want a Chinese style "social credit" system and the direct evidence for that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,326 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    I don't discuss politics in any form with family and friends I'm afraid. Sorry if this doesn't fit your narrative of everyone who disagrees with you being a boogeyman hiding in the basement.

    What happens when you express the fact that you spend a disproportionate amount of time posting on conspiracy forums to family and friends?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,323 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    So why do you hide the fact that you believe that all space missions are fake? Why do you not discuss your beliefs about covid with people?

    Why do you avoid discussing this issues here and now?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    "I don't discuss politics in any form with family and friends"

    It's nothing to do with politics, you literally think satellites aren't real, of course you don't discuss it with anyone, you know it's BS.

    I can’t see the future and don’t know if covid will get worse or better. It may die off.

    How does mask wearing ensure the success of agenda 2030? What happened all the other agendas from the past?

    We all have control of who gets elected. How do people switch on to agenda 2030 as soon as they are elected? Do they not have their own mind any more? Do they get replaced by drones or something?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,487 ✭✭✭Fighting Tao


    Covid is health, not politics.

    Space programme is science, not politics.

    9/11 is terrorism, not politics.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,326 ✭✭✭Markus Antonius


    Why do you keep running away and dodging questions? Here it is again, what happens when you express the fact that you spend a disproportionate amount of time posting on conspiracy forums to family and friends?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭deceit


    I didn't think the great reset was considered a conspiracy theory since they are fully open about it and many world leaders endorse it (Biden/Trudeau/Boris to name a few)? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Reset Maybe you should watch the world economic forums video on it where you will "OWN NOTHING AND BE HAPPY" as a selling point.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nL1HuTYcoC4



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,323 ✭✭✭✭King Mob


    But we've been through that piece of bullshit.

    The WEF is not using that as a selling point.

    It comes from one article they published that was basically speculative fiction. It was repeatedly stated to be not something they want to happen or are secretly working to bring about.


    If they are fully open about it, could you point out where they directly and clearly state that they plan to remove the concept of ownership?

    If you can't find this statement other than one out of context quote from a silly instagram post, why can't you?

    I suspect that you will then turn around and declare "well obviously they're hiding it".


    What's this to do with covid measures though?

    How does this fit with the people behind faking the pandemic using secret anagrams?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭deceit


    An Instagram post? It was a high production video they spent significant money on and had to withdraw from the backlash???? You can see snippets of the video in the sky news Australia link from my last post (Edited it at the same time you posted).

    How are they not using it as a selling point when they made a high production video with this as their main point. Heads of state push the agenda as being better for people (In reality this is only good for a small few elites). They want the average person to own nothing but conveniently don't mention who will actually own everything.

    Their is a certain group that promoted the merging of the state with big business along with whats happening in Australian internment camps in the past. I can't believe we as a people are making these mistakes again.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 914 ✭✭✭buzzerxx


    Do you see people dropping dead in the street or anywhere else? like the fake videos of people in china that were circulated at the start of this terror campaign.

    The masks are a symbol to keep reminding people that there is a deadly global pandemic and to be afraid.



  • Registered Users Posts: 411 ✭✭brianhere


    Anyway it looks like we are well on our way to much more mandatory restrictions with respect to masks, starting with young children in schools, mandatory vaccinations with massive fines and jail sentences for those who don't comply - if the experiences of Australia, Austria and Greece are anything to go by - and more wall to wall brainwashing about social distancing and not meeting people etc.

    Just to clarify again, in simple terms why they are doing this. They want to create, and have done so to quite a degree, a Communist country like China out of the West including us. To do so they want 'full spectrum dominance' over all possible organs of the media so that wherever your ears or eyes turn you get wall to wall brainwashing on whatever line the state is pumping out. (Don't be fooled by the sort of controlled fake arguments they claim they have among themselves, like NPHET v Govt or whatever, that's just window dressing, they are all on the one page here.) Communism and brainwashing in a sense go hand in hand, and you cannot get the brainwashing unless all these sources of information are in step.

    The point is that this includes oral, social sources of information. You might be listening to lies morning noon and night on the media but that guy you bumped into on a bar stool was actually quite persuasive, telling you about all the people he knew who got heart disease after the vaccines etc. So you have to stop that as well, hence the bars are closed down until such time as they can systematically exclude the unvaxed, who are clearly those not on message here. Or if you managed to meet somebody at a funeral who was not brainwashed, you maybe found it difficult to recognise him with the mask on and anyway it felt very artificial and difficult to talk mask to mask, hence the mask is useful to them that way as well. The same is true of the constant messaging to limit social interactions in general, its very important in this state control mechanism that people don't meet up, form groups or generally exchange information outside government controlled (and intelligence agency monitored, hence contact tracing for all restaurant tables etc) environments.

    Can I just say too, its not a conspiracy theory to say we are under tyranny from our government, that frequently happens, your ancestors exactly 100 years ago had to fight tooth and nail to get back control from a tyrannous government, it happens people! Its happening now to you, and there is absolutely no way they will lift that jackboot off your throat until everybody is fighting back against this tooth and nail. There is no easy way out, it is not, I repeat NOT, just going to 'end'!

    I don't see any need to share. I don't think you are understanding the point here, or you are too backed into a corner to answer it honestly. People with extreme views often alienate themselves from friends, colleagues, family, etc. I know a couple of anti-vaxxers, one of the "newer" ones, a friend, is complaining that people are no longer responding to him. On top of that they are putting themselves (and others) at increased risk during a pandemic.

    It's literally a dangerous view to have in every sense.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,190 ✭✭✭✭Dohnjoe


    That's not the selling point at all. It's a world economic discussion forum, they have one every year. Why are you drifting from your Irish political conspiracy to this other conspiracy?

    Perhaps you've missed my posts, here are the questions again:

    What is going to happen in 2030 according to you?

    Who are the Irish politicians who want a Chinese style "social credit" system and the direct evidence for that?
