I am an American nurse. I worked the ER through COVID.
I am going to tell you what I saw. Not what the news said. Not what the agencies said. What I saw with my own eyes, in the hospitals where I worked.
The story you were told and the story we lived were two different stories.
The hospitals were empty.
Empty triage. Empty units. Whole floors closed. Nurses sent home with reduced hours. The inappropriate TikTok videos of nurses dancing in PPE came out of those weeks because there was nothing else to do.
The exception were the urban centers — New York, parts of LA etc— where people live stacked and respiratory illness moves fast.
The rest of the country was a ghost town being filmed as a war zone.

Can’t believe this guy’s goal is to hoard a $10T net worth.
I would think with all that wealth, he would use it to help people more.
Like ending deaths in car accidents, or providing affordable transport for everyone, or offering internet to isolated people groups or something.

JUST IN: Elon Musk says his goal is to reach a $10 trillion net worth. "$10T or bust"

@DefiantLs I'm watching this video on mute, and you can immediately see the insufferable white female liberal demeanor. It's like a demonic giveaway, you don't even need to hear them speak.

@LibertarianZA It's because of the gas the fruit creates while ripening. If they are all in the same container, especially if it's enclosed, not refrigerated and with no ventilation, it's a chain reaction.

In South Africa, they’re as hard as a rock and inedible for 3 days then suddenly all brown and mushy by the 4th day.
There is a 3hr window somewhere during the transition when they’re perfect.
Somehow, avocados follow exactly the same pattern.

Did you know Korea sells “one-a-day” banana packs? Instead of every banana ripening at once, each one is at a different stage. One is ready today. The next one is ready tomorrow. The last one is still spiritually in college, “experimenting.” Simple. Genius. Solves the entire banana problem. What do you think? Would you prefer your bananas this way?

@BuckSexton Next thing you know, she and her PETA buddies are going to splash red paint on Triceratops exhibits the world over. Save the Triceratops from extinction!

Exposing the BEE for what it is, is something that should be done in a persistent manner. The ANC political elite will do anything to keep the spotlight from BEE - in order for them and their cadres to enrich themselves.
This article by William Saunderson-Meyer in @Politicsweb is a must-read, detailing some of the extracts of a report on BEE in the mining sector.
Supposedly, this was a confidential report. One can understand why - it is in actual fact an exposé:
It shows that a massive 60% of BEE value were channelled to a mere 46 (!) individuals. The total value being up to R 282 billion.
Basic arithmetic, as @TheJaundicedEye shows, amounts to about R3 billion per individual.
We must continue to shine the light on the darkness of where the cadres operate.

@ConCaracal It's never enough. Just like they will never have a sunset clause on BEE.
Marxists are insatiable, because they don't use their own resources.

Fully automatic R4's and grenade launchers get stolen from a SANDF base...yet government still targets law abiding civillian firearm owners. @afriforum

@MR0808 @woolworths You're going to make me weigh all of my purchases from them now. I'm so tired of sneaky shrinkflation and enshittification (the latter is a real term, look it up) by these big corporates.

Carl Menger destroyed the labor theory of value in 1871 with a single insight: humans value goods based on their marginal utility, not the labor embedded in them. The same year, William Stanley Jevons in England and Léon Walras in France independently arrived at similar conclusions about marginal utility. Three economists, three countries, one revolutionary idea that shattered Marx's entire framework.
Menger's "Principles of Economics" went further than his contemporaries by building economics from individual human action rather than mathematical abstractions. While Jevons and Walras constructed elegant equations, Menger asked the fundamental question: why does anyone value anything at all? His answer traced value back to human needs and the decreasing satisfaction each additional unit provides. The tenth glass of water matters less than the first when you're dying of thirst.
The timing wasn't coincidental. By 1871, classical economics had painted itself into a corner with the labor theory of value. If labor determines value, why do diamonds cost more than water? Why do identical goods sell for different prices? Value exists only in the mind of the acting individual. No intrinsic value, no objective measurement, just human preferences ranking scarce goods according to their ability to satisfy wants.
Menger's approach created the foundation for the entire Austrian school tradition that followed. Böhm-Bawerk used marginal utility to explain interest rates. Mises extended it to money and the business cycle. Rothbard applied it to ethics and political theory. Every free market economist since 1871 stands on Menger's shoulders.
The establishment still teaches economics as if Menger never existed, preferring mathematical models to human action, aggregate demand curves to individual choice, and central planning to market processes.

@Dzungie007 Throws shade at white South Africans while unironically naming the exact source of all the problems (Hint, not the whites), and yet missing the point entirely. Yup. How's that 30% education doing for you?

@empire_res66190 Then I will temper my statement. I'm fully supportive of native Brits asserting their rights and heritage in their own homeland, as well as being a bulwark against heathenism and anti-Westernism. I only wished the same was true from the Brits towards the Afrikaner.

@Resist_CBDC Man, I've been resisting the pattern, but Lagarde's nose tells the story.
I'm sorry, but the pattern is THERE.

The billionaire class are terrified because we're coming for them - we're going to tax them fairly and end rip-off Britain.
Let them attack. We're here to win.

@WorldByWolf Thanks to the West for abandoning us to the marxists, by the way, and only crying now that same ethos is coming to your own backyard. Sincerely, a South African.

South Africa and Zimbabwe are examples of what white Europeans can produce from nothing (i.e. the two richest countries in Africa) and then how quickly that progress can be completely dismantled by black rule in just two or three decades.
Our leaders saw this happen and decided Europe needed to import Africans to boost our prosperity. At least that’s what they told us was the justification.
It’s so absurd on its face that we know the real motive is far more sinister and genocidal in its intent.
Remigration now.
