Jon Stewart: “Who Gets to Decide” What’s ‘Misinformation’?

Former Daily Show host Jon Stewart has expressed his concern about ‘fact checkers’ and the legacy media being given the power to label certain narratives “misinformation,” asking the question, “who gets to decide?”

“These are shifting sands,” Stewart explained during a podcast hosted by Apple TV+.

“I think I get concerned with, well who gets to decide what that (is),” he added.

“In the Iraq war, I was on the side of what you would think, on the mainstream is misinformation, I was promoting what they would call misinformation, but it turned out to be right years later and the establishment media was wrong,” Stewart asserted.

Stewart, who previously suggested that the COVID-19 virus had leaked from the Wuhan lab, should be applauded for being one of the few liberals who hasn’t completely abandoned his principles to simp for Big Tech censorship like virtually all the others.

“Every few years, there’s a new excuse created to justify censorship,” commented Glenn Greenwald. “The latest is “disinformation” and — as Jon Stewart adeptly explains here — it’s the subjective and elastic nature of this term that makes it both so powerful and subject to abuse.”

“I will likely never tire of pointing out the fact that the worst and most destructive “disinformation” comes – by far – not from FB or QAnon but from the largest corporate media outlets and their CIA/FBI sources which claim to be battling disinformation,” he added.

Indeed, as we point out in the video below, so-called ‘fact checks’ of ‘disinformation’ sometimes acknowledge that the information is actually true, but still label it “mostly false” anyway because it counters the regime narrative.

For over a year, it was considered “disinformation” or “misinformation” to even entertain the lab leak theory.

Some of those tasked with burying such information on behalf of social media networks, like Dr. Peter Daszak, were intimately involved with the lab itself and complicit in covering up the truth.

Daszak was tasked by Facebook with ‘fact-checking’ (censoring) information related to the hypothesis, while Google, which via YouTube also censored information about...

One is the loneliest number that you'll ever do

Two can be as bad as one
It's the loneliest number since the number one

No is the saddest experience you'll ever know
Yes, it's the saddest experience you'll ever know

'Cause one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do
One is the loneliest number, whoa-oh, worse than two

DC hero revealed to be bisexual

The latest ‘Peacemaker’ episode confirms the titular character is bisexual, and it’s thanks to John Cena

The latest episode of DC’s ‘Peacemaker’ has confirmed that the titular character is bisexual, making him the second queer character in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) following Harley Quinn. According to showrunner James Gunn, the idea came from John Cena, who plays the lead role in the show.

“Peacemaker is an interesting character because he’s f**ked up in so many ways, and then in other ways, he’s kind of weirdly forward-thinking,” Gunn said in an interview with Empire magazine. “John does improv all the time, and he just turned Christopher Smith into this hyper-sexualized dude that is open to anything sexually. I was surprised by that. But I thought, ‘I guess it makes sense that this guy isn’t one-dimensional.’”

Some fans who care about the main character’s sexual orientation have been suspecting that Peacemaker might be bisexual for a few episodes now, but a scene in the latest episode seems to have undeniably confirmed it.

The scene in question takes place when Peacemaker’s dad, White Dragon, is beating him up and throwing insults at him. “I knew you was unclean when you was born, and even more so when you killed your brother,” he tells his son. “I knew when you listened to that devil music. I knew when you shaved your body like a woman. I knew when you slept with the whores of polluted blood... and men!”

Gunn has pointed out that while Peacemaker “doesn’t have any issues with sexuality,” he seems to draw the line at bestiality. “As long as you’re not f**king animals – that he’s not into. But besides that, he’s pretty open. And yet other things, he’s completely close-minded on.”

Peacemaker’s coming out makes him the second queer character in the DCEU as Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn was also revealed to be attracted to both sexes after her breakup with the Joker. The actress has reportedly been pushing for upcoming DCEU movies to explore Harley’s romantic relationship with fellow villain, Poison Ivy.

Seattle’s Transit System ‘Unusable’ due to Toxic Fentanyl, Meth Smoke

Liberal and progressive city Seattle is literally becoming toxic. Rampant with crime and drugs, it has become impossible for the average citizen to ignore. The Seattle Times reported Monday that local authorities have stated its transit system has become “unusable.”

The Times reported the transit system has become overloaded with reports of toxic fentanyl, meth smoke and volatile behavior. It has created a toxic work environment for employees and has scared off travelers.

In an attempt to turn things around, the city plans to release a new “Safety, Security and Fare Enforcement Initiative” in February. The initiative incorporates surveys and comments from 8,000 people.

The Times reports that plan hopes to improve the dangerous environment, welcome back commuters, but also show compassion to those who are doing drugs, and especially homeless people, as “a necessary step on its journey to becoming an anti-racist mobility agency” according to the King County website.

Complaints of smoke from narcotics use such as meth and fentanyl surged last summer, surpassing complaints about individuals using needles and smoking marijuana. The unarmed security monitors for the metro have zero authority to arrest or remove individuals from public transportation.

The Metro Transit Authority (MTA) has also shied away from using law enforcement against the homeless population after the death of George Floyd, which led to nationwide protests, some of the most violent and destructive of which occurred in Seattle.

Seattle Police Detective Patrick Michaud told the Seattle Times that police officers in the city do not regularly patrol the transit system, and illegal drug use is considered a “lower priority than violent crime.”

Transit operator Erik Christensen has reported six incidents of fentanyl, meth or heroin smokers snice just October. “We just want them off the bus. Just get them off the bus, so we can drive” said Christensen.

In Denver, drug use at the downtown train station was deemed “a lawless hellhole” in December due to the amount of public drug use. The Seattle Times reports “a television newscast aired a worker’s video of...

Fact Checked Around the U.S., COVID-19 patients are being killed by inappropriate medical protocols, and they have no say-so in the treatment they receive. They’ve literally been stripped of their patient rights
COVID patients are refused basic drugs like antibiotics and steroids. They’re even denied basic nutrition and fluids, which amounts to a war crime. Instead, COVID patients are over-treated with remdesivir, narcotics and mechanical ventilation, a combination that more often than not results in death
Hospitals are paid by the government for COVID tests, COVID diagnoses, admission of COVID patients, use of remdesivir and ventilation, and COVID deaths. This payment scheme has created a kind of institutionalized killing machine, where hospital revenue is tied to patients dying in-hospital with a COVID label, be it true or false
The Canadian press reports that COVID-19 patients are often given excessive doses of medications such as opioids, benzodiazepines and anticholinergics that could result in a lethal overdose, and in the U.K., senior care homes have been accused of killing off COVID patients with midazolam, a powerful sedative
Collectively, patient neglect, mistreatment, overtreatment and the COVID jabs have resulted in massive disability and death. Deaths among working age Americans (18 to 64) as of the third quarter of 2021 were 40% higher than prepandemic rates. Compare that to the 15.4% increase seen between 2019 and 2020, which was reported as the highest life insurance payout increase in 100 years

Something truly unthinkable is happening in America's hospitals. Around the country, COVID-19 patients are being killed by inappropriate medical protocols, and they have no say-so in the treatment they receive. They've literally been stripped of their patient rights.

They're refused basic drugs like antibiotics and steroids. They're even denied basic nutrition and fluids, which amounts to a war crime under Rules 53 and 118 of the Geneva Convention, which state you may not starve a person and you must provide basic necessities even to prisoners.

Instead, COVID patients are over-treated with dangerous and ineffective therapies like remdesivir, narcotics and mechanical ventilation, a combination that more often than not results in death. Many doctors who understand the importance of early and appropriate treatment are perplexed and horrified by what they're seeing, and for good reason. It's truly beyond comprehension at this point.

A Case of Medical Kidnapping for COVID Bounty?

Perhaps the most shocking example I've come across is the case of a perfectly healthy man involved in a car accident. In a talk with Stew Peters on Rumble, Benjamin Gord claims to have been given an unknown knock-out drug by the attending EMT and woke up on life support in a COVID ward.

He pulled out the vent all by himself, as he was unharmed from the accident. When he demanded to know why he'd been placed on mechanical ventilation, the shocked staff told him he was being treated for COVID.

In other cases, patients have been put on COVID standard care even though they came in for something else. Patients are also being denied release and are basically held as prisoners in the hospital. Many are refused the right to deny treatment.

On the other hand, they're forced to accept do-not-resuscitate orders that they don't want. There are also reports of COVID patients being given potent central nervous 1 2 system respiratory depressants otherwise known as "euthanasia cocktails" — combinations of sedatives like morphine, fentanyl and midazolam.

The medical kidnapping and mistreatment of patients against their will has become so widespread, human rights attorney Thomas Renz asked the Truth for Health Foundation to set up a medical advisory team, called the COVID Care Strategy Team, to help families physically liberate their loved ones from hospitals where they're kept captive.

Incentivizing the Killing of Patients

While one can speculate about the ethics of hospital administrators and doctors all day long, one of the most obvious answers to how this could have happened is that hospitals are receiving massive incentives to over-treat COVID patients to death. In the simplest terms, every patient has what amounts to a $100,000+ bounty on their head. Hospitals receive bonus payments for:

COVID testing and COVID diagnoses — Hospitals receive a 20% "bonus" on top of the standard cost for the treatment of a COVID patient
Admission of a "COVID patient"
Use of remdesivir — The U.S. government actually pays hospitals an additional bonus when they use remdesivir, and that's in addition to the 20% upcharge. Remdesivir was developed as an antiviral drug and tested during the Ebola breakout in 2014. Results were beyond disappointing. In the early months of 2020, the drug was entered into COVID trials. Those trials were also beyond disappointing. Not only was the drug ineffective against the infection but it also had significant and life-threatening side effects, including kidney failure and liver damage. Despite its clear dangers and lack of effectiveness, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration authorized remdesivir for emergency use against COVID in May 2020, and then gave it full approval in October 2020. 3 4 5,6 7 8,9,10 11 12,13,14 15 16 17
Use of mechanical ventilation, which CMS whistleblowers claim kill 84.9% of COVID patients within as few as 96 hours, typically due to barotrauma (trauma to the lungs from the elevated pressure).
COVID deaths — In August 2020, former director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Robert Redfield, agreed hospitals had a financial incentive to overcount COVID deaths.

According to Renz, hospitals are raking in a minimum of $100,000 extra for each and every "COVID patient" when they follow the directive to only treat with remdesivir and ventilation. On the other hand, hospitals that refuse to follow this deadly protocol and use things like ivermectin, antibiotics and steroids forfeit all government payments.

Still, financial incentives dictating drug treatment don't explain why some hospitals are now withholding basic nutrition and fluids, quite literally torturing — starving — the patients to death. Such cases make it clear that death simply must be the desired outcome. Why else would you withhold food and water?

Initially, these COVID incentives were justified as a way to make sure hospitals would not be financially destroyed by the pandemic as they were losing revenue from...
