Thats’s probably not an unreasonable(albeit hyperbolic) assessment on its own, the problem for me is when politicians try to pretend as though they are opposed to them and other “elites” when reality suggests otherwise.

Everyone knows that the WEF is just the front for the Stonecutters.

"globalist elites", "Laurentian elites", "new world order", "the great reset", "woke", "cancel culture", "microchips", "cabal", "Illuminati", "freedom", etc. etc.

These are all amusing buzz words that help propel conversations into.... certain directions. The toilet definitely being one of them.

So, bad time to admit I've actually attended WEF in Davos (pre-pandemic) for work?

Holy crap? Am I Illuminati now? When do I meet Beyonce and Jay-Z?


Seriously though, I can't speak for everything else going on behind closed doors, but it was pretty much another business conference a la CES, SXSW, Cannes, etc. that I've been to. Lots of folks from Calgary there, and those were people that definitely vote conservative more often than not.
The worst part about it is that I had to wear a suit. Damn those globalists and big Menswear running the world secretly.

And your question isn’t honest because you’ve made up the premise. People (on this very board) were talking about immunity/vaccination passports as early as May 2020, not as “the government won’t do this” but as “they likely will and should do this.” There was never a situation where 99% of people said it would never happen (outside of your anti-vaxx bubble, I guess). So, if you want to ask an honest question, ask one. If you want to peddle more lies and misinformation, ai’ll just keep calling you out on it.

I’ll also ask you an honest question, this you?







All proven out to be wrong, not based on science, conspiracy theory nonsense, etc. You care to walk back any of these, or are we supposed to keep playing pretend and let you live the fantasy of ever being honest?
Must have stepped out for lunch. Strangely silent.

The last 3-4 pages of this thread went off the rails because 14Roman14 made the claim that I can't be 100% certain that democrats aren't satan worshipping pedophiles (among other things).

The main problem with this is that the same logic could be applied to any issue/topic, which makes it pointless as a means of discussing anything.

For example...

Can 14Roman14 be 100% certain that conservative voters aren't all stupid and/or brainwashed?
Can 14Roman14 be 100% certain that Danielle Smith isn't actually an alien in human skin?

I think we can rule that out. No way aliens would have made it to our planet if they were as dim as Smith.

How do we know that the Clinton Foundation isn’t in bed with Justin Trudeau and ultimately it’s Hillary Clinton that is personally charting the course for our once great country?

Fact: WE DON’T.

Wake up sheeple!!

And in a year if this vaccine starts causing harm to those who took it and weighs down our amazing healthcare system worse than the symptoms of covid itself did, then what?



It already has more negative side effects than all other vaccines combined in the last 20 years like myocarditis, Bell’s palsy, paralysis, rashes, and death. And we won’t know the long term effects for years.



I very much hope I am wrong but what if this was the plan from the start for governments and elites to gain control over populations? To see who listens and who doesn’t and reward those who are controlled and punish those who aren’t.

And if worried about the kids really think hard about why the kids can’t get them. Could it be they aren’t safe?

Do you realize that they need you to be scared to control your every move. Do you know that the ones hiding Anne Frank were breaking the law, and the ones that killed her were following it? That may sound extreme but it’s the truth.

And before you all jump down my throat about not knowing my facts, I’ve talked to 2 different nurses with 40 and 30 plus years experience that say this will be the biggest crime against humanity ever.
Ouch. What must it feel like to have nonsense like that requoted to you? Is this the last we will hear of 14Romans14? Stay tuned...
