    George Monbiot on COVID-19 and mutual aid, rather good even if he still holds a fetish for the State

    This pandemic and economic crisis ( which is another pandemic )  should show to the world working class that nationalism and supporting their own class enemies is not beneficial to them and that capitalism is their system, it is not ours

    Good news for a few

    https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/mar/31/barclays-offers-triple-overtime-pay-for-staff-on-coronavirus-frontline

    “Barclays is offering triple overtime pay to frontline staff as it tries to manage an “unprecedented” surge in demand for mortgage holidays and government-backed business loans during the coronavirus lockdown.
    The move will affect thousands of lower-paid employees in call centres and branches who are working extra hours to deal with an increase in customer calls and a jump in the number of colleagues off work because they are ill, self-isolating or juggling childcare.”

    Denialism

    Turkmenistan bans media from using the word “coronavirus.” The nation that neighbours Iran  has reported no cases of the new coronavirus.

    An international media freedom watchdog says the autocratic ex-Soviet nation of Turkmenistan has banned the media from using the word “coronavirus”, AP reports. Reporters Without Borders said Tuesday the word also has been removed from health information brochures distributed in schools, hospitals and workplaces.  Reporters Without Borders said people wearing face masks or talking about the coronavirus are liable to be arrested by plainclothes police.

    Why aren’t believers in religion asking – where are their Gods?

    Churches, synagogues and mosques closed. No house of worship protects against a pandemic, it seems. Collective prayer meetings only spreads it.

    The Pope hides away giving virtual sermons and priests end Mass.

    Easter cancelled. The Hajj cancelled.

    Hindu sacred cow piss and shit ineffective cures for COVID-19.

    Even the dead are being refused the ritual of funerals in many places.

    I even notice that nobody is calling this pandemic an “act of god” or “divine retribution.”

    Blame it instead on the Chinese or call it a random natural disaster.

    So why are vicars and ministers and priests essential key workers?

    Pastors, Priests and Rabbi, and others,  they use medical doctors when they get sick, and human sciences,  inside the churches they believe in God, but outside of the churches they believe in sciences, and they get scared when they are going to die. It is all bullshitting

    I can see disaster looming ahead for India and at so many different levels.   It could well overtake the US as the new epicentre of the virus in a few weeks time

    The Case Against Covid-19 Skepticism

    The USA wants to use the Coronavirus pandemic as a pretext to launch an invasion against  Venezuela and to have its naval ships in the Caribbean sea.

    This is another operation similar to Panama in the so-called war against the drug traffick when the best drug dealers are the political allied of the USA such as Colombia and Honduras, and invasion against Venezuela might produce the death of thousands of peoples from both sides, and the spreading of many guerrillas fighters thru South, and Central  America.

    The Venezuelan army is heavily armed too, much better armed than the armed forces of Iraq and Vietnam, instead of being the Ho Chi Min trail, it might the Russia and China trail

    This is another regime change like they did in Iraq to take the natural resources of the Orinoco, by the meantime, the USA workers are living in the clouds and supporting all kind of reactionaries measures.

    The Yankees never rest, they have been fucking around the Latin American region for more than 200 years

    This is taking place in Ecuador, one of the allied of the USA, where the whole health system was wiped out completely by president Moreno, and the IMF approved a big loan for that country and all the money was stolen,  by the meantime Donald Trump and his gang of thieves are looking for drug dealers in Venezuela

    I’ll bet L Bird has donned his mask and gloves even in the absence of a mass vote on the existence or not of the virus.
