The world’s elite: Tone-deaf, willfully ignorant, or malicious?
American Thinker ^ | 30 Jan, 2022 | Terry Paulding

Posted on 01/30/2022 4:00:49 AM PST by MtnClimber

Are the world’s elite tone-deaf, willfully ignorant, or truly malicious? I must contemplate this question because, on a very human level, it points to where we’ve gone wrong, and what we must do to fix it before it’s too late. I think, honestly, it’s all three. It just depends on the person whom we’re talking about and what set of circumstances we’re contemplating.

Let’s face it: There are a relative few who consider themselves “the chosen” in this world, the ones with the most money, the power-mad, the influencers. Nothing says that their ideas are any better than yours or mine, but they nevertheless believe they are invincible. In their own eyes, based on their demonstrable success at getting so rich or powerful, they are smarter, more knowledgeable, and a better judge of what is good for the rest of us.

They’ve arranged life so that they can shut us up easily because they control so many of the ways we communicate. Once they’ve silenced us, they must remain wedded to whatever pathway they chose. They can’t back down or we’d see them as fools.

The elites become tone-deaf because when people get very rich, they often—I think very often—lose touch with reality. Everyone who gets near a rich, powerful person reinforces this egotistical self-preening. The economic elite and the super-famous are surrounded by people who want in on the glam, want to reap the perks of rubbing elbows with the rich, famous ones. The latter are “yes men” magnets, so to speak.

It's hard to challenge someone whose worth has been so decisively proven by the very billions they have acquired. And so the brown-nose bunch of remora fish lucky enough to get close to them amplifies the tone-deaf nature of the rich elite’s understanding of the world.

The COVID-19 Storyline is the Greatest Scam in World History — The Truth is This is a ‘Pandemic of the Vaccinated’

Wayne Allyn Root / Jan 30

https://townhall.com/columnists/wayneallynroot/2022/01/30/the-covid19-storyline-is-the-greatest-scam-in-world-history—the-truth-is-this-is-a-pandemic-of-the-vaccinated-n2602554

Excerpt, but please read it all:

In Germany, the most draconian COVID-19 mandates and restrictions in the world were sold to the public with false data. Just like in America, the German government labeled this a “pandemic of the unvaccinated.” They claimed up to 90% of the infected and dead were unvaccinated. Newspaper investigations have found that none of this was true. The government simply classified every sick or dying person as “unvaccinated.” Government officials are apologizing, blaming the “mistake” on a “software error.”

In Alberta, Canada, the government published, then quickly deleted health data exposing that almost 60% of the COVID-19 victims classified as “unvaccinated” were actually among the vaccinated. It turns out everyone who got sick, was hospitalized or died within two weeks of getting any vaccine (the first jab, or second, or third) was counted as “unvaccinated.”

I’ll bet you didn’t know the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention play the exact same trick here in the USA. They know most of the COVID-19 deaths and injuries, not to mention deaths from the vaccine itself (mostly heart attacks) will occur within 14 days of any jab. So, everyone that gets sick or dies in that period is counted as “unvaccinated.”

The most perfect control group ever is the U.S. military. Every young soldier got the COVID-19 vaccine in the past year. To follow the results is the very definition of SCIENCE. Military whistleblowers have come forward with Department of Defense medical data showing since the start of the vaccine program cancer is up about 300% among military members; female infertility is up 500%; miscarriages are up by 300%; and there was an astronomical 1000% increase in neurological disorders from 82,000 to 863,000 in one year.

These are young men and women who were in perfect health ... until the vaccines. It appears the vaccines are literally crippling our national defense.

Malicious.

People I know knew. Forty years.

Deep state leftists. State Department and other connections.

In their cups... raging ecowarriors who sincerely believed in death to masses to save the mother Gaia. Multimillionaires.

This has been an ongoing agenda for years embedded in the fabric of the country.

” the “elite” have sold their souls “

The Faustian bargain is very real and just not some fictional story stuff.

My reaction as well. All to often a false either/or proposition is offered, when “all of the above” is the best answer.

When Satan took Jesus up to the high spot and offered all the kingdoms of this world and their riches, notice Jesus’s reply WAS NOT “Stop lying, you can’t deliver all that...”.

Case in point...

T-Mobile will fire employees who aren't fully vaccinated by April 2 and those who don't get at least one jab by February 21 will be placed on unpaid leave

I believe that the elite, meaning the billionaire class and anybody socializes in this small circle, has been involved in occultic activities and they are being told that if they do what they are doing that they will create a utopia on earth.

It is my belief that Satan is using them to get rid of man and, once the billionaire elitists complete their mission that Satan would kill them.

That’s the real of artificial intelligence, to replace man.

Of course, I also believe that God will intervene before this mission gets completed.


They have tried to chop away the rugged cross,
But some day, the Lord will show them who is boss.
He will count the faithful standing at his side,
And in judgment, he will lock the rest outside.

They ate indoctrinated and are trying to put fashionable ideas into effect because they were told those ideas and policies would make the world better. Does that count as tone deafness or as willful ignorance? I doubt they are all having orgies and feasting on pituitary glands.

We too know how to climb walls. Their gated communities won’t prevent the purge.

“yes”
