… Me. I don’t use scales like Mrs S, but I have lost a considerable amount of weight in the last three months. The downside of which is that I am physically much fitter and end up doing more hard work. All down to ditching all the junk carbohydrates from my diet and eating just fish meat and eggs.
This is the diet dismissed by certain loud and censorious voices as a ‘fad’. Trust me, it isn’t. It works wonderfully for weight loss and recovering one’s health. There have been anecdotal observations for years about how a high protein, zero carbohydrate, high fat diet may even help keep certain cancers in remission. One of my cousins uses it, to put it in his own words, to ‘walk back’ his Diabetes II. Indeed it was the regimen that used to be prescribed by doctors in the days before Insulin.
Oh, by the way, have you heard that there is a British founded company that uses a form of AI to manipulate news? It’s called the ‘Global Disinformation Project’ or GDI and pushes it’s narrative to all the ‘fact checkers’ that have sprung up over the last few years. And it’s based on the ideology of it’s female academic founder; pro-trans, pro alphabet soup activism and anti capitalist. The GDI is at the root of the game of ‘Chinese whispers’ or as the Americans call it ‘Telegraph which is the source of most modern media narratives. You want to know what manipulates that narrative and is behing the rise of the fact checkers? The GDI. Watch the video from Unherd below.
And it’s mostly government funded. Although organisations like the Soros backed and very mis-named ‘open societies foundation’ have had a significant role to play in the GDI’s founding and rise.
No wonder it seems like the truth may be out there, but rather like my waistline, good sources are being significantly reduced by censorship and disruption of good information. The GDI, and the views of a few academics are at the root of societal division and the toxic rise of DEI.
According to Unherd the chief villains of the piece are Claire Melford and Daniel Rogers who have been key in the collective pushing the perversion of society, and the warping of innocent minds.
Off with their funding say I. People who deliberately set out to warp public discourse have no business telling the rest of us what we should be thinking.
Update: This story has gone global thanks to people like Elon Musk. Looks like the GDI may well lose it’s funding. Mainly because the GDI et al are the chief discriminators of disinformation, misinformation and malinformation, a.k.a. lies.
Qui custodes ipsos custodes? I think we all have to. Keep the bastards feet to the fire.
