Pass the chips!

As in HARD PASS

Housekeeping:

1) I subscribe to the Epoch Times. I like it. Their content isn’t ‘perfect,’ as some of the medical stuff is a little too echoey of alphabet ‘health’ agencies for my liking. But I find it well worth the 4 (or 5) bucks per month.

2) Jeffrey Tucker, for his part, is a brilliant human being with a sound approach to current events, an encyclopedic knowledge of history, and an innate intuition about the future. He’s the founder of Brownstone.org.

3) After you’ve read this entire ghastly essay, check out an equally sickening slice of propaganda in Allure magazine (written in 2018!). It’ll come in handy when trying to explain to people who haven’t been following this crap that the government & media have one priority: seizing control of our bodies and brains.

First Dogs, Then Humans

By Jeffrey Tucker

Commentary

Quietly and without press attention, in the last ten years most governments of the world have started requiring that dogs be microchipped. The chip contains information on vaccine records and health generally, along with owner information including phone number. Most people have complied and there is no organized movement against it. It has become a common practice over 10 years, and enforcement is constantly tightening.

In July of this year, the CDC implemented a new rule that all dogs entering the United States had to be microchipped, even if you were traveling and you are a U.S. citizen. There was a great deal of blowback on that idea, especially from Canada. The CDC then tweaked its rule to exempt people traveling in the last six months from “low-risk” nations among which there are only a few. In effect, the rule applies in most cases, and the upshot is the same: all dogs are going to be microchipped whether the owner wants it or not.

Of course the idea is to intensify this over time as the opposition weakens, compliance increases, and the notion of computer chips under the skin of all pets becomes normalized. You have heard of transhumanism, which is the integration of humans with machines into a single organism? This is transanimalism, and the chipping of the pets is a major step in that direction.

After all, there is nothing in particular about the chip that offers something unique that a tag does not. The purpose is not to enable finding your pet should it run away. The chip has no GPS tracker in it. If you want that, there are very easy ways to get that with an Airtag or some other tracking device. The chip only aids in pet finding if the dog is taken to a vet, scanned, and the owner’s phone number appears. It seems far easier just to put a tag on the dog for that result.

They say that a tag can be changed. So can a chip. It’s more trouble but at least a tag has the advantage of being more humane and safe. There are instances of poisoning from dog chipping, rare but they exist. There is nothing invasive about a simple dog tag but it doesn’t speak to the techno-utopianism of the practice of chipping house pets.

I was speaking with some serious experts on infectious disease and vaccination. They had never heard of this rule or even this practice. My strong impression is that most people have never heard of the practice, though new dog owners will face the pressure from many veterinarians, no question. Indeed, the pressure begins from the first visit. They push one vaccine after another only reluctantly clarifying that all but rabies are optional. Once the cycle starts, it does not stop and the chip becomes the recommended option for keeping up to date.

In fact, all European Union countries have already implemented dog-chipping mandates. The UK does too. I have no first-hand information so I’m guessing that enforcement and compliance is spotty but if you use the veterinarian, you will encounter direct pressure. The doctor will feign shock to discover that your pet is not already chipped and will strongly insist it gets one immediately. This also means that all new pets are going to be chipped.

The chip itself is the size of a grain of rice. It can get lost inside and it can also be expelled over time. It can also stop working. The technology, in other words, is not infallible and it is still experimental but that does not stop the enthusiasts and the mandators.

The rationale traces to the new claim you will find in epidemiological and volcanological circles. The notion is that “spillover” diseases are somehow increasing; that is, there is a growing propensity of diseases to move from animals to humans. I’ve yet to find any incontrovertible evidence of this claim but it is frequently made in the literature. In fact, when the great debate broke about the origin of SARS-CoV-2, the partisans of the idea of natural origin were especially fired up to claim that COVID-19 was a case of exactly this.

The debate over the Bird flu, in fact, is bound up with this claim of growing spillover. The people who want to use Bird flu for another test run of the mRNA platform have high hopes of exactly this. This is why the Department of Health and Human Services has issued a PREP Act notice for the Bird flu, which triggers an Emergency Use Authorization and hence indemnification of a Bird flu vaccine.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., comments: “The U.S. government has ordered 4.8 million doses of bird flu from the CSL Seqirus company, produced in dog kidney cells and using a dangerous squalene-containing adjuvant. The [American Medical Association] issued [Current Procedural Terminology] codes for this vaccine last Friday, so doctors could be reimbursed for administering it. There have been a total of 11 cases of bird flu in the U.S. since 2022, all mild, most involving just conjunctivitis. None were shown to have been transmitted human-to-human.”

During the rollout of the COVID vaccine, some major cities experimented with vaccine passports. New York City attempted to segregate the entire city from the unvaccinated between Sept. 18, 2021, and March 7, 2022, using an app called Key to NYC. The city spent $100 million to develop it but the thing did not work. It kept breaking and it was never able to integrate out-of-state vaccinations. It was a bust. But at the time, other cities thought this was the future and copied it. Boston, New Orleans, and Chicago were all shut so that the unvaccinated could not go to libraries, bars, restaurants, museums, or theaters.

Europe and Canada did the same. Australia is still trying to push people to link up their medical records to their digital vaccine cards on their phones. It is not even slightly a stretch to suggest that the real goal is chipping the entire population with controls managed by an app with data shared with government agencies. The deployment of this technology on dogs is part of the rollout, a method by which to get the population acculturated to digital health surveillance via under-the-skin chips. They need it to become normalized so that people will go along.

It’s always step by step. What starts with animals is intended to come to humans. Right now, people have become extremely resistant to vaccine mandates and even the latest vaccines that promise the moon but deliver myocarditis. This is a major problem for the industry that they hope the next disease panic can rectify, which is why we are hearing so much about Bird flu these days.

Most people know nothing about this new trend and are likely shocked to know that it is even going on. But what is the average person supposed to do? The mandates do not typically come from legislatures but bureaucracies, which implement the rules as if they have unlimited power to do whatever they want. If they can get away with this for dogs and cats, people will be next on the list. In fact, that is the whole point.

Human Microchipping Is Here, and It’s About to Rock Your Skin’s World

Soon it will open your front door, start your car, and provide your entire medical history. This is your epidermis as you have never (ever) imagined.

I couldn’t bring myself to read past the headline above and this passage below. But maybe if you want to investigate whether the tech companies mentioned are worth an investment...knock yourself out.

It starts with the microchip. Your pet probably already has one, but the technology has very different applications for Tuesday the Cat than it does for humans. Pets’ microchips help identify them if they get lost. For us, microchips will make life more convenient. The Swedish incubator Epicenter began microchipping its employees in 2015 — not to track bathroom breaks or productivity but to give them the power to operate printers and more. The tiny, grain-of-rice-size RFID (radio frequency identification) chip opens doors with a wave of your hand in front of a chip reader. And at Pause Fest, an Australian tech expo, 10 VIPs volunteered to swap paper tickets for implanted-­microchip ones. Imagine an internal key fob.

No thanks.

In CLOSING: The OPENING Ceremony (see what I did there?) was another nod to a transhumanist future.

Or should I say, anti-humanist?
