Описание: Never Waste a Perfectly Good Crisis. The virus is real; the response to it is fake. Thats the assumption you have to begin with if you want to get to the truth about Covid-19. It was the conclusion Dr. Crossley reached at the start of the pandemic. As an E.R. doctor with over 30 years experience, what he saw "on the ground" didnt match the official narrative coming from the bureaucrats in charge. They painted a picture of a deadly pathogen that would kill millions. What he was seeing was a handful of Covid patients who were genuinely ill... and thousands who had minimal symptoms, or none at all. The deception began with the PCR test, which sets a ridiculously high "cycle threshold," virtually guaranteeing millions of false positive results. This gave the Covid "disciples" the chance to massively inflate CNNs running case count. But case counts are only scary if a lot of people are dying. So, how do you get high case counts AND high death rates? Thats easy, call every death a Covid death - car accidents, heart attacks, even dying hospice patients with "do not resuscitate" directives. One stunning statistic illustrates the magnitude of the deception: the number of flu cases plummeted from 38 million in 2019-20 to a few thousand in 2020-21. Have we eradicated flu, or is flu masquerading as Covid? Why go to such lengths to make Covid seem more deadly than it really is? One answer is that it gives bureaucrats an excuse to impose punitive lockdowns. Are they justified? You be the judge, but this is the first time in history that healthy people have been quarantined en masse for a disease that poses very little threat to them. The deception is about more than just statistics. Safe and effective medicines like hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin were withheld even though they showed real promise as a cure for Covid. Why would you do that? Could it be that there are those among us who dont want this pandemic to end? After shunning safe and effective cures, the authorities chose to promote an experimental vaccine instead. The mRNA vaccine is unlike any vaccine weve seen before. It uses gene-altering technology to enlist our own cellular machinery to replicate the spike protein that is the cause of severe Covid disease. In spite of the vaccines radical nature, it was rushed to production in less than a year, completely bypassing the customary 8-13 year trial phase. "Experts" like Dr. Fauci assure us that its the safest vaccine ever produced. How do they know? You dont get to make statements like that until the end of the clinical trials, and they arent going to happen. This is a global human experiment, and you and I are the guinea pigs! Deaths from the Covid vaccine have already eclipsed the deaths from all other vaccines for the last 30 years combined, and this may be the tip of the iceberg. Perhaps the most sinister part of the plan is the push for vaccine passports. There are those who would deny people the right to work, or go to school, or travel, or even buy food if they wont submit to the jab. And it wont end with one or two jabs. The prospect of endless Covid variants will ensure that the pandemic is extended indefinitely while setting the stage for unlimited boosters. In this book, Dr. Crossley looks at everything from mask effectiveness to mRNA vaccines. He compares the Covid pandemic to the Bubonic Plague of the 1300s and the Influenza pandemic of 1918. He uses simple analogies to explain such concepts as "cycle thresholds," which are essential to understanding the pandemic. His hope is to give you a peek into what life is like in the trenches of the Covid Wars, separate fact from fiction, and arm you with information to help you navigate the challenging days ahead.

Описание: In this important book Nick Crossley examines the birth of punk in the UK and its transformation, within a short period of time, into post-punk. Dominant explanations of these developments have tended to focus upon strains and frustrations, both social and aesthetic, which are said to have provoked a generation of young people into rebellious action. Crossley identifies a number of problems with such explanations, stressing in particular their failure to explore punk's 'micro-mobilisation'. UK punk emerged within the interactions of a small, circumscribed and geographically concentrated network of music enthusiasts, he argues, and sociological analysis of it must start there; with this network and the events and mechanisms which allowed it grow to a national scale, diffusing punk culture. Similarly, to fully understand post-punk we must investigate the various city-based networks, generated in some part through excitement about punk, which incubated both frustration at what it soon became and creative attempts to transcend its limitations. Deploying innovative concepts of 'critical mass', 'social networks' and 'music worlds', and using sophisticated techniques of 'social network analysis', Crossley engages with the detail of punk's emergence, diffusion and subsequent transformation into post-punk, offering a highly original and robust account of these fascinating and culturally important processes. Written in an accessible style, this book is essential reading for anybody with an interest in either UK punk and post-punk or the impact of social networks on cultural life and the potential of social network analysis to explore this impact.
Описание: Harnessing Chaos: The Bible in English Political Discourse Since 1968 (2014) looked at the shifts in political understandings of the Bible in the aftermath of the social and economic changes of the 1960s. The book examined the decline of the Radical bible (i.e. the Bible roughly equated with socialism) in parliamentary politics and the victory of (a modified form of) Thatcher's re-reading of the Liberal Bible tradition, which equated the Bible with rule of law, democracy and tolerance. This showed how Thatcher's Bible was developed by politicians and the significance of Tony Blair's socially liberal qualifications, as well as the Radical Bible's survival outside Parliament and against the backdrop of emerging Thatcherism. The new, revised edition of Harnessing Chaos includes an additional chapter/postscript on some of the remarkable and unexpected uses of the Bible that happened since 2014. These include David Cameron giving a number of key speeches which intensified Thatcher's Bible, particularly in his justification of his most controversial policy decisions surrounding foodbanks, austerity and ISIS, Ed Miliband engaging with Russell Brand's Radical Bible, and the unpredicted emergence of Jeremy Corbyn, which has seen him and his close allies explicitly use the Radical Bible, in direct disagreement with Thatcher, in his first major speeches. These developments have been, in varying degrees, unpredictable but also vital to understanding the fate of the Bible in contemporary English politics.
