Bay Area tech icon Keith Rabois announced he’s leaving San Francisco permanently — and he is criticizing the city on his way out.
Rabois, an early executive at PayPal, Square, LinkedIn and more, told Fortune he is “moving imminently” because he’s finding it “impossible to stay” in San Francisco. After living in the Bay Area for 20 years, he said he plans on moving to Florida.
Poor Florida.
“I think San Francisco is just so massively improperly run and managed that it’s impossible to stay here,” Rabois told Fortune. He told the publication other friends in his peer group have done the same, and a look at his Twitter account shows multiple tweets about the so-called San Francisco exodus.
I wonder who he will vote for?
Seattle’s new policing guidelines, as only a democratic city state could come up with:
“You see, predatory sociopaths with histories of violence and robbery will be “liberated” by “healing circles” and “narrative storytelling.” Because, we’re assured, these things, when combined with burning sage, will “increase empathy.”
Univershity taught expert there.
But I do like the sage part.
An inconvenient stat that the Dems do not want you to know, especially Gov Cuomo from New York. “But, but, but Trump is to blame.”
New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Connecticut lead the way with deaths per million, mostly owing to the fatalities in long-term care facilities. These were the states that locked down the hardest and longest. Indeed they are locking down again! Deaths per million in states like South Dakota are still low on the list.
Cases in blue, deaths in red.
Lockdowns do not work!
Oregon Gov. Kate Brown is calling upon Oregonians to inform on friends and neighbors who violate the state’s strict lockdown orders.
Snitch line.
Warning: more liberal-speak:
“I never said I would get rid of the GST (VAT) if elected.” Jean Chretien 1993 national election.
And this from True-dough.
Madness!
At a Costco near you.
Winter coats deemed a non essential item in Canada’s coldest province.
Snitch line set up in Manitoba to allow people to rat on their non compliance neighbors.
Sorry kids,” he announced in a very sad voice while oddly smirking at the camera. “Santa’s gone. COVID got him. That’s what happens when you don’t wear a mask!”(sic)
“There’s just no way to have a safe Christmas celebration,” Newsom later told the press. “The best course of action is to tell children that Santa is dead because he is one of those crazy right-wingers who refused to wear a mask, and now Christmas is canceled. This will also help you save money on Christmas gifts — which you’ll need to do in case we have another lockdown.” (sic)
Entertainment Industry Workers Exempt From California Governor Gavin Newsom’s New Stay-At-Home Order.
“Does that include pole dancers?” someone was wanting to ask.
But shortly after calling on Canadians to “stay home” and “Skype that big family dinner,” Trudeau crossed the provincial border from Ottawa into Quebec to visit his wife and three children at Harrington Lake.
Harrington Lake is the name of a federally designated heritage building maintained by the National Capital Commission that serves as the country residence of Canadian prime ministers.
Why? When asked his office responded: “He is the PM after all and therefore essential thus he and his family can travel anywhere he likes without restrictions.”
“After all, I am the Prime Minister. I am Justin Trudeau. I am essential, and you’re not.”
Dr Fauci: “You must wear a mask in public. Always. No excuses.”
He kinda reminds me of this dude:
The rules are there for thee and not for me:
Canadian Health Minister Hajdu ignores non-essential travel, flies privately 11 times on taxpayer dime at $70K per flight – $770K total.
Health Minister Patty Hajdu has been using a federal jet more frequently than her department previously admitted, all while telling Canadians to refrain from any non-essential travel.
According to a report in Blacklock’s Reporter, Department of Transport documents tabled in the House of Commons show that Hajdu used a government jet to fly between Ottawa, Winnipeg and her home in Thunder Bay, Ontario during the same period she was instructing Canadians to stay home.
The measures we’ve been announcing – including wearing a mask in all public places…
…may be shocking and frightening to many of us, but they are necessary to #FlattenTheCurve. We all need to do our part. Stay home when you can and practice social distancing, but look out for one another. Let’s help each other get through this.
Question: If masks are so effective then why do I have to social distance myself. And, if social distancing is so effective then why do I have to wear a mask??
I always thought that the Canadian “house of ill repute” was as pubic as they get.
In any event the sale of 10 foot barge poles soar in Manitoba and in Thunder Bay Ontario.
Top Pathologist Claims COVID-19 Is “The Greatest Hoax Ever Perpetrated On An Unsuspecting Public”
Top pathologist Dr. Roger Hodkinson told government officials in Alberta during a zoom conference call that the current coronavirus crisis is “the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting public.”
Hodkinson’s comments were made during a discussion involving the Community and Public Services Committee and the clip was subsequently uploaded to YouTube.
Noting that he was also an expert in virology, Hodkinson pointed out that his role as CEO of a biotech company that manufactures COVID tests means, “I might know a little bit about all this.”
“There is utterly unfounded public hysteria driven by the media and politicians, it’s outrageous, this is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting public,” said Hodkinson.
No, Climate Change is.
The doctor said that nothing could be done to stop the spread of the virus besides protecting older more vulnerable people and that the whole situation represented “politics playing medicine, and that’s a very dangerous game.”
Hodkinson remarked that “social distancing is useless because COVID is spread by aerosols which travel 30 meters or so before landing,” as he called for society to be re-opened immediately to prevent the debilitating damage being caused by lockdowns.
Hodkinson also slammed mandatory mask mandates as completely pointless.
“Masks are utterly useless. There is no evidence base for their effectiveness whatsoever,” he said.
Trudeau’s mask:
“Paper masks and fabric masks are simply virtue signalling. They’re not even worn effectively most of the time. It’s utterly ridiculous. Seeing these unfortunate, uneducated (with the virus) people – I’m not saying that in a pejorative sense – seeing these people walking around like lemmings obeying without any knowledge base to put the mask on their face.
But, but, his comments do not fit the accepted narrative therefore this is bogus, fake news.
Move along sheeple. No story here.
One of Canada’s best “unknown” hits from the early 70’s.
On a parting note:
“What makes all of this talk about massive shutdowns so disturbing is that there is very little evidence that lockdowns slow the spread of the coronavirus. Even the World Health Organization concedes that such orders cannot curb the spread of the coronavirus.”
No Matter – “As Dr Fauci said: America’s “Independent Spirit” Must End, “Now Americans Must Do What You’re Told;”……………..or else.
A guy named Schwab. A German no doubt. A Global reset. Hitler couldn’t do it by force so Schwab and the UN will accomplish world domination by deception.
With the Great Reset we will own nothing but Schwab and his cast of Marxist cartoon characters in the UN will own everything.
Not a conspiracy here folks but facts. What is it with the Germans anyway? WW I, WW 2 wasn’t enough chaos, death and destruction on a global scale – now this? Why are Germans such a bunch of sauerkrauts anyway?
Schwab kinda reminds me of this guy:
Blofeld was something else.
Of course the Great Reset will occur synergistically with the UN’s Agenda 2030:
The narration kinda sounds like an avatar.
But reality really bites:
Free public transportation:
Free housing:
Free food:
Free health care:
Free Education
No possessions
And no religion too
Imagine this?
Hypocrisy
Oh No! The white grand piano in John Lennon’s minimalist abode.
But remember. Even with this UN and Great Reset ideology, somebody has to be in charge.
An elitist’s house no doubt after the great reset.
Suckaaaas
Two words describe this nightmarish utopia world as brought to you by the UN and World Economic Forum:
Commune and Ism.
An excerpt from my book “I Thought I’d Died and Gone to Heaven.”
“Sandy lived in a commune in the southeast end of the city. It was so cool, she told me. Yes it was sooo cool, figuratively and literally, but also rundown and shabby, ten of her closest friends living together under one roof. The only enterprising dude in all of this was the landlord. His dependency was not the free-spirited, enterprising skills of the inhabitants of his rundown abode but the municipal government’s largesse of the day, affectionately known by all of the caterers of the hippie commune crowd as “Welfare Wednesdays.” And commune is just a hippie expression and a Latin word meaning… shithouse!
“Sandy showed me her space, which was in the corner of a large open basement, damp, dark, and dank, with just a dirty mattress and a blanket curtain marking off her personal territory: a bare incandescent lightbulb her only means of artificial light. It was sooo cool, she kept reminding me. And you’re so square, uptight, so un-cool, she would criticize me to no end. Get with the program, she would insist. Her limited vocabulary was only limited by the amount of drugs she imbibed. The letter “C” being a predominant determinant of their nondescript and boring alphabet and part and parcel of the hippie dialogue and cultural landscape. What she didn’t tell me was the number of times she was robbed of her food and money by her cadre of close but oh sooo cool family of friends.”
And that was written to reflect a true life experience in 1969.
We’ll all become algorithms in this new but old construct. The more things change the more they stay the same – as the old saying goes.
A recently completed research study by Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in cooperation with the Naval Medical Research Center and published in the New England Journal of Medicine has found that strict quarantine, tightly controlled social distancing, and continuous use of masks did absolutely nothing to contain the spread of COVID-19, and might even have increased its spread.
First, the study used 1,843 Marine volunteers, individuals well trained to follow orders as well as the required procedures. Second, their quarantine took place at Marine facility under the supervision of the military. Both factors meant that the volunteers were going to follow procedures much more correctly than the general public.
Third, no one could enter the study without undergoing 14-days of quarantine beforehand, plus a test to prove they were negative of COVID-19 at the study’s start. The study itself was held in a tightly controlled quarantine campus run by the Marines.
The volunteers then had to follow an incredibly strict quarantine regiment:
The data from this trial continues to reinforce the very very early data from March. COVID-19 is not dangerous to the young or healthy, and it will spread no matter what you do. The best way to beat it and thus protect the vulnerable older and sick population is to have it spread as fast as possible through the young and healthy population, so that it will die out quickly and thus no longer be a threat.
Of course this does not follow the official narrative thus it must be bogus and fake news.
It’s going to be a tough winter,” as Michigan Governor Whitmer enacts new restrictions for 3 weeks in Michigan – then leaves for Florida.
Dr Fauci says Americans shouldn’t stop wearing masks, social distancing even after they’re vaccinated against Covid-19…………..yeah right. Funny that I never see him wearing a mask. Has he lost his job?
“C’mon now Donald. Concede. Put your big boy pants on and let it go.” This from Obama and other Dem elites. Such hypocrisy from the left:
Listen past the 2 minute mark and watch the interviewer’s reaction.
“What’s good for me but not for thee – because I am a Democrat.”
But sadly , under the Democrats “the lamps are beginning to go out across America, and the world.” Just as Sir Edward Grey stated at the onset of World War 1, in July 1914.
Loss of democracy and an erosion of your rights and freedoms.
Models, models and more bloody models.
To date: BC = .02% mortality rate due to Covid 19. Canada = .03%. Is that a crisis?
Typical politician-speak from the government. Obfuscate.
These are the only models I care about:
Erm, maybe this:
Just say NO!
Consider this stat. According to the CDC in the US, only 14,000 Americans have died as a direct result of Covid 19. Many more have died with the virus but very few because of it. Is that number worth the fear, loathing and turmoil we are currently going through?
Please, please wake me up. I was having a nightmare until:
they woke me up.
WHO wants to live in a woke society? Let them but not me.
Wokiness destroys everything it touches. Consider this:
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed or removed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right – the left leaning parties of the progressives.
Sound familiar? In should. In short: 1984 redux:
The ideology that never tires of proclaiming its tolerance and how it rejects racism just banned two of the greatest anti-racist novels of 19th and 20th Century because the new religion of anti-racism demands they do so.
Which books do you say?
“To Kill a Mocking Bird;” and
“Huckleberry Finn.”
Plus:
“Of Mice and Men”
“1984” do doubt. Probably “Animal Farm” as well.
Next?
“The King James Version of the Bible”
Why?
Because they fail to fit the progressive narrative and mindset as flaunted by the UN, WEF and every other liberal out there, including the Democrats and Liberal Party of Canada.
“Imagine No Possessions, And No Religion Too”
Fritz Lang had it right in his 1927 classic silent film “Metropolis”
Probably be banned as well.
This is where we are headed.
If they can ban To Kill A Mockingbird for being racist, they can ban anything for being anything, because words have lost all descriptive power and meaning except for what serves the will of the Party at any given moment…
As Dr Fauci said: America’s “Independent Spirit” Must End, “Now Americans Must Do What You’re Told;”……………..or else.
Told by who?
“If they can do or say that then they can do anything.”
Somebody always has to be in charge no matter what the Utopian Ideology may be.
Power corrupts but absolute power corrupts absolutely.
