Has covid killed globalization?

The Economist magazine online wants to know, "Has covid killed globalization"?  Well, long time readers know that no, covid didn't really do anything.  Globalization was a liberal herding construct whose current form was trying to be rammed through for the wrong reasons by the wrong people.  A bunch of asshat liberals wanted to be little dictators in one big pyramidal structure so that they could sit on top of everyone and have a great life while doing very little.

We know covid did not kill liberalism nor did it kill the federal reserves balance sheet because both of these things were clearly predicted to blow up as part and parcel of the end of the Global Debt Ponzi (GDP) whose enabler was fake money but whose root cause was simply the cyclic peak of liberalism in the herd.  We know I'm right about these things because I have been predicting them in a fashion so straightforward, and to be sure, in your face for over a decade now.  Long before the social cracks were present I warned everyone that these directional changes of trend are turbulent, just like a spoon changing direction in your coffee.  These trend changes are actually healthy.  When it gets too one way, it sows the seeds for going the other.  My stock market experience has taught me that and since everything is a fractal, it has to be true at various degrees of abstraction and scale.

Covid was just a convenient excuse for the herd to cling onto as the turbulence got very bad.  It was something to focus on and in a way we are lucky to have gotten it because otherwise, as I warned many times, we could be headed to war.  In fact it is not clear that we will avoid war but if we can focus enough of our aggression fighting the battle of covid maybe we won't end up needing to kill each other. 

In any case, it's good to see that those who are slow on the uptake by about a decade are finally beginning to see things that I have been talking about for many years now.  When people see clearly, things go better and liberalism was like being in a virtual reality chamber.  It still hasn't broken down yet but more and more people are waking up, taking the red pill and coming out of their waking slumber.

When they do expect them to see clearly enough to understand that:

• The stock market is for gambling, NOT saving your life's stored labor!
• Gold is money, and nothing else is.  Silver and platinum are partially money.
• Possession is 9/10ths of the law.
• He who has the gold makes the rule.
• Paper currency is not money, it's a con game and everyone who stores their long term wealth in paper assets will get the same treatment as Madoff victims.
• The concept of a two man job is not strange; it is the most effective way to work.  But it absolutely does not take a village to do every little thing.  Those who give up their freedom for a false notion of being cared for or having safety will end up un-cared for and without either freedom or safety.
• Real money can be borrowed and lent but doing either cannot change the size of the money supply.  Anything else is a fucking con game, period.  And anyone trying to institute it is a thief and a traitor to their nation because once this con game is put into play, at some point the debt will because the biggest matter of national security ever encountered by a nation.
• Fractional reserve banks are a bigger threat to a nation than any standing army.
• Those who give up their guns eventually doom a nation to a long period of servitude followed by an overly bloody revolt.  They are cowards and fools.
