Tea at Trianon: Setting The Stage: "Disease X"

John Wilson Croker on Marie-Antoinette

"We have followed the history of Marie Antoinette with the greatest diligence and scrupulosity. We have lived in those times. We have talked with some of her friends and some of her enemies; we have read, certainly not all, but hundreds of the libels written against her; and we have, in short, examined her life with– if we may be allowed to say so of ourselves– something of the accuracy of contemporaries, the diligence of inquirers, and the impartiality of historians, all combined; and we feel it our duty to declare, in as a solemn a manner as literature admits of, our well-matured opinion that every reproach against the morals of the queen was a gross calumny– that she was, as we have said, one of the purest of human beings."

~from History of the Guillotine by John Wilson Croker, 1844

Edmund Burke on Marie-Antoinette

"It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely there never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like a morning star full of life and splendor and joy. Oh, what a revolution....Little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fall upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look which threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded...."

~Edmund Burke, October 1790

Setting The Stage: "Disease X"

From NBL:

Since the World Economic Forum released its program for their 2024 Annual Meeting in Davos, “Disease X” has been trending non stop on the other X (formerly known as Twitter) and relayed all over the mainstream media.
[...]
Fast forward to January 2024, on the eve of the “Preparing for Disease X” panel — and on the eve of the U.S. presidential elections. We know how that turned out with the last plandemic. The Disease X narrative has been spread, and the stage has been set. So are we about to experience another plandemic? “20 times deadlier than covid”? Or is this a distracting fear campaign while another black swan event is planned? Considering 2024 is a critical year, we’re likely to see multiple disruptive events at once…Psychopath Bill Gates certainly seems very excited about the prospect of a “pandemic 2.0”, as are his WEF freak acolytes.
