You can't attend a funeral, but damn it all, the Regime Perverts aren't going to stop their gang-bang parties.
Remember Monkeypox? Remember that our "health experts" would not even tell people -- gay men, in this case, one of the most protected of all protected classes -- to not join in anonymous gang-bang orgies?
They couldn't even say that.
For my friends, everything. For my enemies -- the law.
The spirit of Lenin is the spirit of our age.
The depth of their hypocrisy is becoming all too apparent. Last week, it emerged that Dr Jay Varma -- the city's senior public-health adviser under then mayor Bill de Blasio, and one of the most prominent advocates for lockdowns, masking and vaccine mandates -- was not exactly practising what he preached. In a series of recorded conversations posted by podcaster Steven Crowder, Varma boasts about attending sex parties and raves while implementing policies that locked New York down.
'The only way I could do this job for the city was if I had some way to blow off steam every now and then', he is recorded saying. Poor Dr Varma. We all remember what a tense time it was. Who could blame the man for getting off his head on ecstasy and going to a couple of orgies here and there?
Certainly not the Atlantic magazine, which published a piece last Friday with the headline, 'Public-health officials should have been talking about their sex parties the whole time'. And no, this was not satire.
Dusting off NYC's Covid rule book from 2020, the Atlantic notes that city guidance 'discouraged -- but did not forbid -- group sex'.
Yeah, they took a similar position with gang-bang orgies during monkeypox. They didn't tell people not to attend them, they just told people to "use common sense" and take "practical measures" to limit one's exposure to monkeypox when being peed on by stranger perverts.
The piece helpfully points out that 'Varma explained that he'd partied responsibly, noting "Everybody got tests and things like that".' There was no word from the Atlantic as to whether or not Varma managed to get his plums sucked by fellow orgy participants when the city guidelines were to only have group sex while 'wear[ing] a face covering'. Quite the logistical challenge.
The article's author, Kristen V Brown, argues that 'public-health messaging wins trust most effectively when it leads with empathy'. She says that Varma's desire to partake in several gang bangs was 'relatable'. He 'struggled in the way that many others did', she writes, 'as he tried to navigate the crushing isolation of the pandemic'.
The Regime makes the rules for others. For itself, it's nothing but gang-bangs and luxe dinners at the French Laundry.
The first headline of this article said that Varna should have been talking about his sex parties. So that this Regime functionary could have shown the peons he rules over that he's "relatable."
This is what The Atlantic considers "relatable" -- drug-fueled swapping sex orgies.
This is the perfect article, in a way. It captures the way that our moral betters think about themselves and about the people they want to rule.
Sure, Varma used the police to jail people who violated COVID policies, but his excuse for organizing drug-fueled orgies was that he had to blow off steam. He was stressed out, you see, by having to impose tyranny on others. Who doesn't need to blow off steam?
My guess is that few of my readers organized drug-fueled orgies during the pandemic or any other time, and if they had in New York City during COVID, they would have been carted off to jail if discovered. Last I checked, MDMA (Extasy) is illegal and rarely recommended by public health officials.
Drug-fueled orgies for me, but not for thee.
What makes this article perfect is the casual way in which all this hypocrisy and lawbreaking is portrayed as normal.
You can measure how close a society is to open authoritarianism by how desperate citizens are to curry favor with the Regime, lest they be the next to be purged or jailed.
Strom links some of the people arrested in New York for doing 1/1,000th of what the Pervert Doctor Varna did. Here is just one:
