Not gonna lie, I was really pissed the other day

My thoughts on concerts, booster shots, and passports

Years ago I read a book that completely changed my life. It changed my outlook, it changed my belief system, and it changed how I conduct myself in this world. I’ve bought 8 copies and have given away 7 of them. This note isn’t about the book, but if you want to know what the book was, it’s here.

I firmly believe that each one of us (us being our souls, not these egotistical skin suits) knew in advance of agreeing to inhabit these bodies that 2020 was going to be a hell of a year, and that 2020 would only be the beginning of a years-long battle against humans who have gone completely off the rails. I don’t want to say “evil,” since I’m not convinced that anything more evil than human greed and need for complete domination over others exists on Earth. But taking on derailed humans isn’t an impossible task. Our souls said, “YAAASSS. Put us in, coach! Give me a few decades of preparing through smaller challenges and I will be up for this task in 2020.”

And since God/the Universe/Source/Spirit is always on our side, even when we’re being forced through situations that are extremely painful, you might have gotten a vaccine injured child thrown into your mix. God probably topped it off with your doctor kicking you out of the practice, just to rub some salt in that wound and toughen you up. Maybe you live in California and showed up to fight SB277 and SB276 and stood there in tears with thousands of parents while your rights were spit on and ground into the dirty floor under the feet of people you voted for. Maybe you thought that would be the worst thing to ever happen but you would have been wrong.

There are a few things in life, apart from my children, that I just absolutely love. I love DIY renovations on my house. I love nighttime swimming in the summer and feeling like a teenager again. I love professional firework displays, especially over the ocean or on the ski slopes. And I love—I mean obsessively love— going to live shows for my favorite bands.

So when AEG, which owns 48 of the best venues across the country and runs some of the biggest festivals, announced on Thursday that only vaccinated people would be permitted to attend shows starting October 1…. well, let’s just say I had to take several doses of lithium orotate and knock back more than my fair share of these sissy hard seltzers we’re all buying right now.

What the fuck? What the ever-loving fuck? Where do they get off forcing not only concertgoers, but every single vendor, employee, contract security, artist, their bands, and their entourages into compliance with a vaccine that is heavily correlated with miscarriages, blood clots, dangerously low platelet counts, tremor disorders, heart inflammation, heart attacks and strokes? A vaccine that apparently is not stopping transmission, isn’t effective in the immunocompromised at all, and will require third doses, which we all know is just the ramp up to annual, if not twice yearly doses?

Where do they get off?

AEG stands for Anschutz Entertainment Group and it’s owned by Philip Anschutz, a billionaire who ranks as the 50th richest person in the country. His father made his money drilling oil in Kansas, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming, and Phillip used it to buy sports teams and music arenas.

He is the chair of the Anschutz Foundation, which has invested $300 million in a Colorado medical campus that now bares his last name. He founded Quest Communications. He owns the Major Soccer League, the Los Angeles Galaxy, Chicago Fire, Colorado Rapids, Houston Dynamo, San Jose Earthquakes, and the New York/New Jersey MetroStars. He is part owner in the LA Kings and LA Lakers. He owns the Staples Center and 47 other venues across America. He owns Coachella, he owns Firefly, he owns Stagecoach. Fortune named him the nation’s “greediest executive” in 1999.

Anschutz is an extremely religious and conservative man who poured money into blocking gay rights in his home state of Colorado. While over-vaccinated anti-Chick-fil-A libs are celebrating AEG’s vaccine mandate on Twitter, none of them have any clue who the owner is, what he stands for, or how he spends the hard-earned dollars they gleefully feed him.

I highly doubt he’s a fan of the Biden administration and don’t suspect that this mandate has anything to do with their influence. But as someone who considers one of the most highly regarded hospitals in the state of Colorado as a legacy, I’m sure he has direct relationships at Pfizer, which frequently sponsors studies at the hospital. Like Bill Gates, Philip Anschutz appears obsessed with funding research into future pandemics, and I would not be shocked to discover that America’s Greediest Executive is heavily invested in pharmaceuticals.

Why would he mandate vaccination at every AEG event? Because he’s protecting his interests, obviously. Think of the year he missed out on for 2020. As far as I know, AEG didn’t apply to receive COVID relief funding (and when AEG employee-owned venues applied there was outrage), so his organizations stayed afloat for 14 months from their own coffers.

If you were an 80+ year old polio generation billionaire, you’d probably think mandating vaccines for the 50% of Americans who attend live sports and concerts is the best insurance you can buy against your bank accounts suffering through another nonexistent 2020. Plus, as warrior for the public’s health, I’m sure he thinks taking the vaccines are in everyone’s best interests, whether they like it or not.

With far less than 50% of 12-39 year olds being fully vaccinated for COVID, it’s looking like AEG events are about to become senior citizen pow-wows if this tactic doesn’t spur the desired action from people who don’t want anything to do with the new jabs.

And with 62% of black people, and 57% of hispanics refusing to take even one dose, all live events are about to become all-white events (if you count Asians as white, which is the new thing in case you haven’t heard).

AN-Y-WAY. All of this is just the lead up to say that I absolutely lost my shit with this announcement on Thursday. I wasn’t spiritual about it AT ALL. You did not want to be around me that day because I couldn’t shut up about it and couldn’t stop texting my friends about it and couldn’t even stand to be around my own self. I was livid.

But that was two days ago and today is a new day, and spiritual Quackenboss is back behind the wheel, and spiritual Quackenboss says, “Go ahead and bring it. In fact, accelerate this bullshit as fast as possible, please and thank you.”

Here’s the issue: a very large part of Braindead America thinks there is an endpoint in sight, and if everyone would just hurry up and give up their freedoms and bodily autonomy, the faster we’ll all get our rights back—as if that has ever happened anywhere on the globe, ever in history. These people are the real problem, and they need to be brought into the fold. The only way they’ll get brought into the fold is through total alienation and annihilation by the people they trust the most: the CDC and Dr. Fauci.

While, as of today, 61.6% of American adults have excitedly or begrudgingly accepted two doses of COVID vaccine, 18% of the fully vaccinated have no intention of taking a third dose. There’s our low-hanging fruit. Their two doses are about to go up in smoke. If we can hang on to that 18% and feed their outrage, when the third dose becomes required to be “fully vaccinated” to attend AEG events, eat in restaurants, go to your fucking job to support your family or whatever, that 61.6% is going to drop to about 50% of adults being fully vaccinated. And 50% of Americans not being fully vaccinated is a lot of freaking leverage.

So yes please, let’s do this. The FDA approved the third dose yesterday for the immunocompromised, but vaccine administrators won’t require a doctor’s note or prescription to obtain the third dose so it’ll be a free for all. And let that happen. There will be more rounds of “unexpected deaths” in otherwise healthy 50 year olds, there will be more tremor videos from healthcare workers, and there will be more babies lost in the second trimester when babies are almost never lost. This has to happen. It is the way. People will talk, word will get around. Then the booster vaccine will be “available” to all by the fall, and required in New York, California, Oregon, Washington State, and Hawaii in order to live what you once thought of as your normal life.

And 50% of Americans won’t have it. Yes, some people will fake it for a while with the paper cards, but the day of needing a digital record in a database and a green light on a phone app is quickly approaching, and it can’t get here fast enough. The people faking it need to come into the fold because we can’t get to where we’re going until they can’t get away with faking it anymore. But first, I want the booster mandate. I want the boosters set in stone before digital vaccine passports become accepted out of desperation.

What I’m most excited for is the fourth dose next summer because, at that point, there is no explaining this scheme away as ever having an endpoint. You’d have to be a literal zombie to live through the fourth dose requirement and still think if everyone would just comply the fourth time that this would all be over. If the third dose loses 18% of supporters, we will smash vaccine passports with the fourth dose.

So yes, bring on the vaccine passports in these lost states so that we can rise up to save the 45 remaining, and through migration and the threat of ghost towns, those 5 states will be forced to abandon their passport programs.

In the course of 48 hours I’ve gone from being pissed about what’s happening to wanting what’s happening to hurry up and happen faster.
