Things Fall Apart
I’ve not written much lately because I have little to add to the conversation occurring among substack readers frequenting the pages of Drs. Nass, Kory, and the mysterious Midwestern Doctor, among others. It’s clear that our medical system is corrupt, and I experience that very directly with a family member still tied to the system. People have a hard time believing that although there are many good people in the medical system, the system itself has become an abusive arm of the pharmaceutical and surgical, etc., industries. People who’ve spent a great deal of time and money being educated in that system and expecting some prestige and honor at the end of it don’t like to be told they’re causing more harm than good.
Things fall apart. I wonder if I’d even recognize what’s being taught in colleges these days— I like to think I would, except for the contempt for real thought and rumination and the championing of various irrational narratives, since supposedly all viewpoints are equally valid.
Then again, we have the pseudoscience of climate change that serves as the justification for censoring views that are harming the will to act to stop the non-existing catastrophe. And that reminds me …
This is an update of a graph I wrote about earlier. I emailed professor Christy and asked if he had an update of his graph of the tropical troposhere temperature trends, models versus observations, and after finding my email several months later, he sent the above graph. The original graph only went to 2013. To summarize this graph, the x axis is temperature trend per decade, the y axis is elevation in hectopascals with the surface being at 1000 and the top of the troposphere at roughly 100. The graph covers the tropical troposphere— latitudes just above, below and including the equator. The troposphere is that layer of our atmosphere where our weather happens and is something like 12 miles up at the equator until we hit the shallow tropopause and then the stratosphere. Supposedly there will be a “tropical hotspot” at about 300 hPa up due to CO2, but it only shows up in models for some reason ….
All the colored dots are various model predictions and the red line running through them is the mean of model predictions. The black circles on the left are the observations, and these would be from balloons and satellites (see the last two items of the legend on the right.) What this graph tells us is that our climate catastrophe is merely model predictions that aren’t borne out by actual measurements. It’s a fiction. What we see can be attributed to natural variation: no signature of CO2 catastrophic warming. But of course, a global catastrophe requires a global government, if enough people can be convinced that the catastrophe is real.
Things fall apart politically, too, as our election here in the US unfolds. Trump has vast crowds and a way of relating to people, and despite how the media portrays him, I believe he has a good heart. But the people who are propagandized by the likes of NPR have been taught to hate the man and I’ve little doubt they’ll riot— “peacefully” burning down cities— if he’s elected, so profound is their adherence to the narrative. On the other hand, if the election is once again stolen, I don’t know what the right will do except protest peacefully and through the legal system— I don’t see them as nearly so violent and hateful as they’re painted to be. It may be that there are enough good people in positions of power and influence who’ll speak the truth of what they see and what’s happening, and we may get a fair enough election. Or it may be that they’ll be an attempt to go full totalitarian and a real clash will emerge between the many of us who’ll simply not go there, and those who wish for total control. I think even then, those with TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) might wake up and realize this isn’t what they signed up for.
It’s incredible how vacuous Kamala Harris is, as the recent interview on Fox News demonstrated. Yet people are cheering her on because, #1, she’s not Trump.
Interesting times ahead. I still have faith in humanity, although I understand that we may have long stretches of dark days. Preserve knowledge, good will, and kindness until the insanity loses its grip.
