Send us a textWhat's up to my perspicacious peccaries and judicious jaguarundis! Welcome back to the BNP friends and thank you for joining! To my patrons, y'all are the blossoms on my bougainvillea, thank you! This episode we welcome back to the BNP fan favorite and independent sleuth Dr. Sylvie Salinger, PhD. Dr. Sylvie holds a PhD in philosophy and did her dissertation on artificial intelligence, and she is back to help us unpack another DOOZY of a topic: Central Bank Digital Currencies, or CBDC. (Don't worry friends, you already know I got you covered on zany audio tidbits as well.)Before we dive into CBDC's and illustrate why they are bad (having your money supply tied to your social credit score, and being unable to save, for starters), we take a beat to reflect one last time on the hypocrisies and continued breakdown of common sense around the schizotypal government Covid response. These draconian, divisive, invasive and counterproductive policies caused countless problems for working people, and then one day, poof, instantly the measures are all gone, with no explanation as to why they were necessary in the first place. I will dive into the Pfizer data dump and the bombshell numbers of deaths and injuries reported in the trials in a later episode. Though the mandates have now largely been lifted, the immeasurable societal and interpersonal damage from these indefensible policies remains, and will be with us for some time. Thus, we will not allow our rulers to, as Malcolm X says, "put our minds right in a bag and take them wherever they want." Won't you please rate, review and subscribe to the BNP wherever you listen to podcasts?Also: there's a new way you can support the BNP!
