SARS-CoV-2 is a neuroweapon. People still don't understand the state of the art of bioweapon tech. If you know which brain structures are associated with what ideologies, you can attack those structures directly, impair them, and alter people's beliefs.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10931481/ When comparing acutely ill and recovered patients on a whole-brain approach, recovered patients showed clusters of significantly higher grey matter volumes in several parts of both hemispheres of the cerebellum as well as in the fusiform gyrus, inferior temporal gyrus, parahippocampal gyrus, and the hippocampus (Fig 3A). Subsequent post-hoc unpaired t-tests (FDR-corrected) of the individual ROI volumes revealed significant differences between the two groups in the left inferior temporal gyrus (t(31) = -2.459; Padj. = .028), left fusiform gyrus (t(31) = -3.296; Padj. = .011), left hippocampus (t(31) = -2.424; Padj. = .028), left parahippocampal gyrus (t(31) = -2.368; Padj. = .028), left cerebellum (t(31) = -2.866; Padj. = .016), and right cerebellum (t(31) = -3.185; Padj. = .011), but not in the vermis (t(31) = -1.265; Padj. = .215). In addition, whole-brain analysis showed that areas in the thalamus, lingual gyrus, and basal ganglia had higher volume in acutely ill patients (Fig 3B). Post-hoc t-tests did not show any significant differences in the right thalamus (t(31) = .752; Padj. = .874), the right pallidum (t(31) = .450; Padj. = .874), right putamen (t(31) = -.688; Padj. = .874) and right caudate (t(31) = -.038; Padj. = .970). Clusters of higher grey matter volumes (t = 3) in recovered patients compared with acutely ill patients (A), in acutely ill patients compared with recovered patients (B), in healthy controls compared with recovered patients (C), and in healthy controls compared with acutely ill patients (D) are presented. Areas involved in the significant clusters were subsequently examined separately in post-hoc t-tests. The subareas of the right thalamus, left cerebellum, right cerebellum, and vermis originally subdivided in the AAL3 atlas were combined for post-hoc analyses. Results are presented in diagrams below (dark grey: acute COVID-19 patients, grey: recovered COVID-19 patients, white: healthy controls). Statistically significant results were marked with * for P < .05, ** for P < .01 and *** for P < .001. Error bars represent ±1 SEM. Second, healthy controls were compared with recovered COVID-19 patients. The whole-brain analysis showed significant differences in grey matter volume in the inferior frontal gyrus, insula and basal ganglia (Fig 3C). Post-hoc t-tests of the individual ROI volumes, however, showed no significant differences for the left inferior frontal gyrus pars triangularis (t(30) = -1.089; Padj. = .601), left inferior frontal gyrus pars opercularis (t(30) = -.146; Padj. = .885), left inferior frontal gyrus pars orbitalis (t(30) = -.739; Padj. = .601), left insula (t(30) = -1.024; Padj. = .601), left putamen (t(30) = -.874; Padj. = .601), and left caudate (t(30) = -.681; Padj. = .601). When comparing healthy controls to acutely ill patients, the whole-brain analysis showed a similar pattern as found in the comparison with recovered COVID-19 patients. Again, significant differences were found in the inferior frontal gyrus, insula, basal ganglia, and additionally in the nucleus accumbens (Fig 3D). Post-hoc t-tests of the individual ROIs showed significant differences in the left inferior frontal gyrus pars triangularis (t(23) = -4.695; Padj. < .001), left inferior frontal gyrus pars opercularis (t(23) = -3.516; Padj. = .004), left inferior frontal gyrus pars orbitalis (t(23) = -5.085; Padj. < .001), left insula (t(23) = -3.157; Padj. = .008), while left caudate (t(23) = -1.867; Padj. = .087), and left nucleus accumbens (t(23) = -1.929; Padj. = .087) showed a trend and the left putamen (t(23) = -.793; Padj. = .436) showed no significant difference.

https://academic.oup.com/pnasnexus/article/1/3/pgac066/6590843?login=false A majority of political neuroscience studies predict ideology using the full time series, including responses and stimuli, of task-oriented BOLD responses (20–24,26). While these analyses have done much to identify how particular regions of the brain interact with political stimuli, our study differs substantially in that FC analysis models the brain as a complex, networked system whose region-to-region relationships give rise to emergent political attitudes and behavior. FC analysis can characterize how these region-to-region coactivations associate with political behavior and may reveal the subnetwork of brain regions that underlies the political brain. Finally, existing FC analyses (22,31, 32) have investigated the effects of a single task or stimuli in isolation thereby leaving a substantial gap in formally comparing associations across tasks. Examinations of FC patterns with subjects at rest found that political liberalism is associated with tighter communication between the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (AGC)—responsible for emotional processing—and the right insula—responsible for conflict monitoring (31, 32). In recent work, Kim et al. (22) found that connectivity between the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) and precuneus as well as between the insula and frontal pole/OFC were particularly prominent in conservatives under stimuli designed to evoke anxiety. Kim et al. and Mendez (20,33) found that the function of the right amygdala (AMYG), hippocampus (HIP), inferior part of the opercular frontal gyrus (IFGoperc), and the ACG are tied to political conservatism; the right IFGoperc is involved in risk aversion (33), and the ACG is associated with political liberalism. Our whole-brain analysis complements these previous findings by investigating whether, and to what extent, each region of the brain and their interactions plays a role in political attitude across common fMRI tasks. Using the largest sample to date, we conducted a whole-brain analysis of FC across eight tasks and resting state to investigate four important and complementary questions about the neurological roots of politics: (i) To what extent can FC predict ideology? (ii) Which task setting(s) from a collection of commonly used tasks are most suitable for the prediction of political ideology? (iii) To what extent does integrating FC predictors enhance the predictive ability of well-established survey-based political indicators? and (iv) Which brain region(s) contribute most to the prediction of political ideology? To investigate these four questions, we employed a state-of-the-art network-based deep learning technique known as BrainNetCNN (34) to analyze the associations of FC signatures across eight tasks and resting state with self-reported political ideology. Our analysis reveals that FC provides noticeable and discriminative features among liberals and conservatives, and that these patterns can be identified with high accuracy using contemporary artificial intelligence methods. We identify a collection of common fMRI tasks from which FC provides powerful predictive models of political ideology, and for each task, we characterize what brain regions are most strongly associated with liberalism and conservatism. Our analyses provide, for the first time, a systematic overview of the neural mechanisms of political ideology across a range of tasks and identifies which tasks and brain regions are related to political behavior for healthy adults.

The real reason why the authorities want fifteen-minute cities and an end to long-distance travel is because they unironically want to replace people’s loved ones who were genocided by the virus and the vaccine with AI “digital twins”. You haven’t visited your extended family in years. They had Facebook profiles with photos that could be used to reconstruct their faces, and posts that could be used to reconstruct their writing and speaking styles. If you haven’t met them in-person in an eon, then how do you know if they’re still alive or if an AI is wearing their flayed skin? What if there was martial law tomorrow, and you couldn’t leave the state to go check?

You’re probably feeling skeptical about this right now. No way would they do something so outrageous, you’re thinking. But they already are. https://www.rd.ntt/e/ai/0004.html

If you think AI can’t be used for this, or isn’t sophisticated enough, then think again. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/essence-ai-death-technology-mark-zuckerbergs-could-how-liu-m-f-a--mcece

The goal of the Overclass is to create a neofeudalist two-class society of rentiers with dynastic wealth and serfs with no class mobility who rent everything they need to live from them. In order to achieve this goal, they need to destroy the only obstacle standing in their way, which is the middle class. To do this, they have used climate change and sustainability as an excuse to engage in degrowth and deindustrialization. I am an ex-green myself. I know the agenda to the letter. It is degrowth and a static GDP or steady-state society that will inevitably starve billions of people to death, particularly those in miserable poverty who depend on the current system to remain intact just to be alive at all. I used to read Kate Raworth, Herman Daly, George Monbiot, et cetera. I know the basis of their arguments. You can’t pull the wool over my eyes. When hundreds of very wealthy people who fly around the world from climate meeting to climate meeting in private jets are all saying the same things about deindustrialization and the dismantlement of agriculture while funding a vast network of climate scientists to repeat their propaganda, it’s not because they actually care about the environment and genuinely want to prevent environmental degradation and loss of biodiversity, it’s because they’re a pack of bloodthirsty hypocrites who are intent on depopulating the planet, smashing the middle class and confiscating our wealth, and stuffing the few hundred million survivors into smart city EPCOT-center-style theme parks where they will live like prisoners under 24/7 surveillance. Read Paul Kingsnorth, Rosa Koire, Patrick Wood, and so on. The techno-green agenda has absolutely nothing to do with being green and everything to do with sucking our governments dry of subsidy money before leaving us holding the bag with new, fraudulent infrastructure that doesn’t work and cannot sustain civilization. Enough is enough. We know what is being done to us, and it is obscene. We are being targeted by the obscenely wealthy for a reduction in our living standards, because we are currently comfortable and relatively wealthy and they want us to be as poor and decrepit as the most impoverished regions of the world. CO2 is a measure of success. All of the most economically successful societies have larger per-capita carbon footprints. CO2 emissions are practically a euphemism for human economic activity. Imagine if the Overclass were honest. Imagine if they said that we need to reduce the economic activity of the most successful societies on Earth, make everyone wear high-tech ankle monitors, and eat sludge grown in a bioreactor vat. I bet their message would be a whole lot less popular, then.

The pandemic wasn't a lab accident. It was intentional mass murder, a power grab, a land grab, and so on, and the perpetrators are still out there, walking free. DARPA, DTRA, USAID, HHS, and the US DOS are all involved in illicit biowarfare research spun off from the Nunn-Lugar CTR program and euphemistically characterized as "biodefense". They massively expanded BSL-3 and BSL-4 lab capacity in the US throughout the 2000s after the false flag Amerithrax scare following 9/11. These labs came under scrutiny from watchdog organizations like Edward Hammond's Sunshine Project. To avoid scrutiny and FOIAs of these labs, they decided to outsource all the work abroad by paying "virus-hunter" middlemen like Peter Daszak and Nathan Wolfe to subcontract grants to biolabs in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, et cetera. Peter Daszak (EcoHealth Alliance), Nathan Wolfe (Metabiota), and Karen Saylors (Labyrinth Global Health) are all likely CIA assets, and Nathan Wolfe in particular has known connections to Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Boris Nikolic. Not only was Nathan Wolfe on DARPA's Defense Science Research Council and EcoHealth Alliance's editorial board, he was also a founding member of Ghislaine Maxwell's fake TerraMar charity, a fact that can be easily confirmed by viewing the earliest snapshot of their site on the Wayback Machine. Hunter Biden funded Metabiota through his investment firm, Rosemont Seneca. There was a 2014 federal funding moratorium on SARS and influenza GOF research in the US, and this was ignored and the work promptly outsourced to Wuhan, with Ralph Baric and Shi Zhengli publishing a paper the very next year. Peter Daszak was trying to impress upon people the need for "medical countermeasures" such as a "pan-coronavirus or pan-influenza vaccine" back in 2015. Peter Daszak and EcoHealth Alliance were actually given a contract by the DHS a few years before the outbreak to establish something called the "Ground Truth Network", a group of subject matter experts enlisted to "contextualize biological events". Peter Daszak was one of the WHO investigators on the ground in Wuhan after the outbreak, and one of the authors of the Lancet's Lab Leak Letter decrying the notion of a lab leak as a "conspiracy theory", both of which are massive conflicts of interest. Anthony Fauci, Jeremy Farrar, Francis Collins, and other associates of theirs, knowingly engaged in a coverup, suppressing the idea of a lab leak. Anthony Fauci knowingly lied under oath before Congress about the NIH funding GOF research. NIH and Moderna co-own the patents to mRNA-1273. Moderna is basically a DARPA front company and have received lucrative biodefense contracts from them for a whole decade (see also, ADEPT: PROTECT and the mRNA-1944 monoclonal antibody prodrug against Chikungunya). DRASTIC Research dug up something called DEFUSE, which was a grant proposal from EcoHealth Alliance to DARPA to develop something very similar-looking to SARS-CoV-2 Spike. DARPA rejected the proposal because it constituted dangerous GOF research, but this doesn't mean that the research wasn't actually done. It is common for researchers to conduct experiments before they actually receive any grant funding. The COVID-19 vaccines were ordered by the US DOD under an Other Transaction Authority as a "prototype to demonstrate mass production" or a "medical countermeasure", and are not legally regulated as any kind of pharmaceutical drug. In fact, the FDA's EUAs for the vaccines were fraudulent; there was nothing for them to approve or reject, since it isn't legally a drug. The COVID-19 vaccines are not actually being manufactured by Pfizer, Moderna, J&J, etc., but by DOD contractors like National Resilience and Emergent BioSolutions. The vaccine is a DOD product that the pharmaceutical companies have rubber-stamped as belonging to them. Brook Jackson, who helped run the trials Ventavia conducted for Pfizer, noticed many discrepancies in the data-collection process, and was fired from her job for whistleblowing. In a subsequent court case, Pfizer admitted there was fraud, but insisted that the government wasn't harmed by the fraud because they were in on it. The clinical trials that tested the efficacy of HCQ and Ivermectin and found them ineffective also found Kaletra and Remdesivir ineffective for the same reason, particularly because they were dosing people with late, futile antiviral treatments long after their viral loads had peaked and declined. COVID-19's clinical course is such that viral load peaks the second day after symptoms, and is almost nonexistent after 10 days. Most of the people receiving antivirals didn't get them until over a week after they became symptomatic, which is around when the hyperinflammation phase starts. Pfizer's Paxlovid was given a head start; they started treating people with it as early as possible, which increased its apparent effectiveness on paper. mRNA/Viral Vector vaccines induce your own cells to produce and display whole Spike proteins on their surfaces, which tells the immune system to come and kill those cells. If the transfected cells happen to be heart muscle tissue, you end up with permanent heart scarring and a reduced life expectancy. There are a number of disturbing connections between people engaged in vaccine research for the DOD, and people engaged in neurowarfare/BCI research. DARPA are hard at work developing a nanotech-based, craniotomy-free BCI that involves transfecting people's brain cells with nanoparticles that stimulate neurons by receiving wireless energy through the skull. There are bioethicists and policy analysts like James Giordano, Charles Morgan, Armin Krishnan, Jonathan Moreno, etc., who are openly speculating on governments pursuing neurowarfare tech specifically to pacify their own civilian populations in the event of economic upheaval and resource shortages. This was a democidal attack by our governments against their own citizens, which has so far killed tens of millions of innocent people, just as planned.

This is the unironic position of people who believe in Fully Automatic Luxury Communism, or FALC: at some point, AI and robotics will get to be so advanced, 8+ billion people on Earth will get to enjoy unfathomable wealth without having to work a single day in their lives. This position is logically indefensible. It assumes that a wealthy elite will not, with the help of captured governments, strategically kill off nine-tenths of the Earth's population and enjoy a windfall from automation, concentrating that wealth in the hands of a few million and letting the other billion or so eat bugs and live in capsule hotels. This is the part that never seems to click in people's heads. In a materialist, nihilist, technocratic system, people's worth comes strictly from the labor that they can provide, and an individual has no moral or cultural worth separate from that. From the perspective of Davos, if you don't contribute anything to the system, then there is no reason at all to keep you alive. A post-scarcity FALC-like system would keep 7 billion newly obsolete laborers in a condition akin to a comatose patient on life support, having absolutely nothing to do that AI can't, with the other billion or less keeping the AI running and making new scientific discoveries. Listen to what Yuval Noah Harari openly admits. "We just don't need so many humans". When you read Herman Daly, Kate Raworth, George Monbiot, Jeremy Rifkin, Yuval Harari, et al., it becomes very clear that the Elites are only planning on keeping enough people alive to keep the "information economy" running. Manufacturing will be curtailed, except for manufacturing those things that are specifically for the delectation of the Elite, as well as providing the few "information workers" who are left with the bare minimum they need to telecommute to their new cyber-job, keeping the AI cornucopia running. The introduction of "15-minute cities" and other such technocratic measures to curtail people's commutes is because they want to completely digitize work so you hardly have to leave your house, which effectively becomes your prison cell. They plan on completely redeveloping cities into residential arcologies with every basic service right within walking distance. That is, they looked at Blade Runner, Judge Dredd, and Cyberpunk 2077 and thought they were manuals for urban development rather than cautionary tales. The wealthy want to cut off meat production and build cricket factories and robotic indoor kale farms right on the outskirts of cities, not only to shorten the distance and energy used to transport goods to market, but also, to take great big cow pastures and convert them into their new residences. When rural labor is no longer of any value to society, then the rural class can be eliminated entirely, compacted into a city, and the land repurposed for the benefit of the rich. This also has the "benefit" (for the ultra-wealthy) of eliminating the competition from the rural and suburbanite peasants and their pesky nationalist and protectionist leanings and squeezing all those people into a one-size-fits-all, cosmopolitan, integrated, urban serf class. Blackrock and Vanguard want you completely priced out of the market so you can't afford to buy a home, settle down, and raise kids. That's where all this climate change crap comes from. It's where you get net zero, the steady-state economy, or the "donut economy". If you can define any sort of human activity on a given parcel of land as harmful, that creates a precedent for its seizure and repurposing. They can just say, you know, we're in "ecological overshoot", and we "can't afford any more growth without collapsing the biosphere", and we "need degrowth", and before you know it, your whole life and basic standard of living you've come to expect is forced into a trash compactor. Don't people get it, yet? They're after the land. Land. Land! They don't care about you, they just want your land. They want servitization to replace private property so that you're utterly dependent on the largesse of the rentier caste, which can be withdrawn at the first hint of disobedience. Only a lobotomy victim could possibly be happy in the sort of system these Davos Men are trying to create, which is why they have BCI lobotomies lined up for everyone. They really thought of everything.
