Nicole Junkermann 3.0: Model or Mossad? Carbyne911 & their CoVid App, World 3.0, & How to Censor News!
Nicole Junkermann is not just a hot shot angel investor and business woman. She is so much more than just that. But if it was up to the Countess Brachetti Peretti - as she is also titled - you wouldn’t know anything about her past. She is in almost complete control of her public image. However, Junkermann almost lost the ability to dictate the narrative virtually overnight as a result of my first article which exposed her links to Jeffrey Epstein and members of Israeli Intelligence, such as 10th Israeli Prime Minister, Epstein’s close friend and IDF poster boy, Ehud Barak.

Postcards From a Pandemic, Part Six: Bad Times for Little Hitlers
If there’s one group of people who’ve flourished in the global pandemic, it’s the judgy among us. I use the term “Little Hitlers,” an English pejorative for those who never seem happy unless they are pointing out the flaws in others’ behaviour, and making constant suggestions, however unwanted, for the self-improvement of their neighbours.

Leave Abortion Alone
I really don't understand how we're still having issues with the legalisation of abortions. At this point, the information out there should be enough to open people's eyes. Abortions aren't evil, and should be available for everyone. For many people, they're the absolute best option for their situation. Abortions are an important part of our modern society, and they're here to stay. There's a long list of arguments against abortions being legal, and I want to address a few of them.

It's a Hard-Knock (Black) Life
The lights in the room darkened and the Hollywood classic, “It’s A Hard-Knock Life” began to fill the silence, and a young girl named Annie appeared on the screen. With her curly hair and little red dress, Jamie Foxx’s remake of the Hollywood classic, Annie, hit the big screen again, but the new twist was that the actress playing the orphan was black. This field-trip made me excited to see a major blockbuster featuring an actress I can relate to. As the opening scene began to roll, I became absorbed into Annie’s fictional world, but my trance suddenly broke when a classmate named Amelia uttered, “I’m not trying to be racist or anything but why do black people steal everything?” The blood drained from my face as I craned my head to stare at her porcelain skin, but was unable to say anything as she giggled at herself in approval of her own words. While the film continued to play on screen, my mind unlatched its own reel and memories from history class began to project in my thoughts. Suddenly, chains, diseases, and colonialism of the transatlantic slave trade began to flash in my mind, and the images quickly morphed into blackface, police brutality, and the death of Tupac Shakur.

What happened to the Contested Convention?
The Death of Debate and the Rise of Conformity There used to be a time in American democracy where the parties that rule this nation would be up for lively debate. Within the confines of their conventions they would hash out exactly which kind of candidate they wanted to put forth. It was called a brokered convention. This sort of vetting allowed for, not only the most skilled candidate to be chosen, but the most likely to win as well. If you had an electorate that was split on the main focus of the party, it also allowed for a candidate everyone could agree on, at least in that political party.

The Unaccounted For Side Effect: Hungary's Fight for Freedom
With over 500,000 infected cases and nearly 20,000 casualties and counting, COVID-19 (otherwise known as 'The Coronavirus') is becoming more infectious with the passing day. However, as viral panic for the disease continues to spread, there is another pathogen in the air. A pathogen so deadly that its effects on global society could last for years, if not decades.

Is China Overplaying its Hand?
Modern technology has made the world's economies more global than ever before. As a result, we're very much dependent on each other for our survival. To an extent, socioeconomic interdependence is a good thing. It helps foster peace. It also creates a more efficient economy, in general. But there are some down sides.

Welcome to the State of Complaintless-ness
The ramifications of saying nothing were not thoroughly considered. There should have been some mathematical formula inserted for careful study and examination; like the absence of complaint (-c) over time (t) will give rise to (=) inequality (i) and much greater (>>) silencing of the masses (mˢ). It is positively eerie that this has become a global norm that not one mathematician to my knowledge has routinely highlighted as having common jurisdictional subsets. Perhaps they too are fearful of repercussions i.e. scared shitless; and rightly so.
