As we approach the dawn of Covid Year Three, things that might once have attracted a wee bit of attention from the media now pass all but unnoticed. For example, last week the President of the European Union, Ursula von der Leyen, called for the compulsory vaccination of half-a-billion people and, in order to facilitate it, the dumping of the Nuremberg Code on medical experimentation - whose first clause would appear to be dispositive:
The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.
"President" von der Leyen is one of those figures most people have never heard of but who decides everything that matters. Once upon a time, in the early dues-paying phase of her career on the lower rungs of the ladder, she had to get elected to parliaments and whatnot, but she's way beyond that now. That's her smooching at top right with the head honcho of Pfizer. Mandatory vaccination of a half-billion here, a half-billion there works out pretty sweet for him.
On the other hand:
The world has stockpiled more Covid jabs than it can use, according to the globe's largest vaccine manufacturer.
Adar Poonawalla, chief executive of the Serum Institute of India, warned that stocks may go out of date because demand has dipped below supply.

This is how they move the Overton Window. Float a proposed severe escalation of state authority over an officially disfavored group, wait for an effect as the whore media pushes towards escalation, then after opposition has built up, back off to a “compromise” which nonetheless gives the state more power than it had prior.
It’s a ratchet racket.
