Transformers Lockdown Quotes

For matured organisations with digitally empowered employees, working from home during lockdown due to COVID-19, is nothing but BAU, they are achieving, employees are engaged and trust is built.

The crucified God takes believers on a journey into earth, into its pain and suffering, and finds in that journey not the holiness of pain but the wonder of life's power to persist and transform. The way of the crucified God seeks God in earth's humanity, which has been abandoned, rejected, and despised, the people who know life amid their struggle.

Dr. Fauci’s business closures pulverized America’s middle class and engineered the largest upward transfer of wealth in human history. In 2020, workers lost $3.7 trillion while billionaires gained $3.9 trillion.46 Some 493 individuals became new billionaires,47 and an additional 8 million Americans dropped below the poverty line.48 The biggest winners were the robber barons—the very companies that were cheerleading Dr. Fauci’s lockdown and censoring his critics: Big Technology, Big Data, Big Telecom, Big Finance, Big Media behemoths (Michael Bloomberg, Rupert Murdoch, Viacom, and Disney), and Silicon Valley Internet titans like Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Eric Schmidt, Sergey Brin, Larry Page, Larry Ellison, and Jack Dorsey. The very Internet companies that snookered us all with the promise of democratizing communications made it impermissible for Americans to criticize their government or question the safety of pharmaceutical products; these companies propped up all official pronouncements while scrubbing all dissent. The same Tech/Data and Telecom robber barons, gorging themselves on the corpses of our obliterated middle class, rapidly transformed America’s once-proud democracy into a censorship and surveillance police state from which they profit at every turn.

As Dr. Fauci’s policies took hold globally, 300 million humans fell into dire poverty, food insecurity, and starvation. “Globally, the impact of lockdowns on health programs, food production, and supply chains plunged millions of people into severe hunger and malnutrition,” said Alex Gutentag in Tablet Magazine.27 According to the Associated Press (AP), during 2020, 10,000 children died each month due to virus-linked hunger from global lockdowns. In addition, 500,000 children per month experienced wasting and stunting from malnutrition—up 6.7 million from last year’s total of 47 million—which can “permanently damage children physically and mentally, transforming individual tragedies into a generational catastrophe.”28 In 2020, disruptions to health and nutrition services killed 228,000 children in South Asia.29 Deferred medical treatments for cancers, kidney failure, and diabetes killed hundreds of thousands of people and created epidemics of cardiovascular disease and undiagnosed cancer. Unemployment shock is expected to cause 890,000 additional deaths over the next 15 years.30,31 The lockdown disintegrated vital food chains, dramatically increased rates of child abuse, suicide, addiction, alcoholism, obesity, mental illness, as well as debilitating developmental delays, isolation, depression, and severe educational deficits in young children. One-third of teens and young adults reported worsening mental health during the pandemic. According to an Ohio State University study,32 suicide rates among children rose 50 percent.33 An August 11, 2021 study by Brown University found that infants born during the quarantine were short, on average, 22 IQ points as measured by Baylor scale tests.34 Some 93,000 Americans died of overdoses in 2020—a 30 percent rise over 2019.35 “Overdoses from synthetic opioids increased by 38.4 percent,36 and 11 percent of US adults considered suicide in June 2020.37 Three million children disappeared from public school systems, and ERs saw a 31 percent increase in adolescent mental health visits,”38,39 according to Gutentag. Record numbers of young children failed to reach crucial developmental milestones.40,41 Millions of hospital and nursing home patients died alone without comfort or a final goodbye from their families. Dr. Fauci admitted that he never assessed the costs of desolation, poverty, unhealthy isolation, and depression fostered by his countermeasures. “I don’t give advice about economic things,”42 Dr. Fauci explained. “I don’t give advice about anything other than public health,” he continued, even though he was so clearly among those responsible for the economic and social costs.

Such a liberating transformation in and against Lockdown America is “spectral,” to use a term from my previous writings.[5] By that I mean that the counter-theatric to state terror makes demands. It is a spectral haunting of the suffering present. It makes demands and cultivates expectations that often make repressive powers tremble. For the repressed, though, this specter is laden with promise and hope. What does this spectral liberation look like?

Welfare had transformed from safety net to a necessity to prevent economic collapse.

By corrupting global institutions, promoting forged data, publishing fraudulent science, and deploying propaganda on an unprecedented scale, the CCP under Xi Jinping transformed the snake oil of lockdowns into “science,” the greatest crime of the 21st century to date. The

elections might not have been so acute. But by June 2021, all of that had changed. Powerful shareholders had listened to Biden’s rhetoric. Not only had the pandemic lockdowns of the previous year wreaked havoc on demand, but Exxon itself had undergone a transformation, courtesy of shareholders—

The trouble with a cause, is that the cause always betrays you.

The creation of “new age slaveries” and “racialized caste regimes”[207] in U.S. society should be grounds for change, for revolutionary transformation for any who care about a society and body politic that values freedom in any genuine sense.

There is, first of all, the way prisons transform the human experience of time. The prison should be seen as a kind of theater in which time is forged into an instrument of torture, producing sustained bouts of fear and panic that make prisons also a weapon of terror. The

Time’s agency becomes most vicious when it is routinized for the practical effect of control. The routinizaton of time is a transformation cultivated by prison authorities and designed to make every day like every other. In this experience, paradoxically, time acts even to deaden one’s sense of time. All the more true is this among the 80,000, likely more,[52] who are serving time in solitary confinement. Lisa

Yet there is a still more crucial transformation of time: it becomes an agent that does things to the one passing through it. Many a prisoner will give voice to this idea by saying, “You don’t do time; time does you.

Some days what doesn’t kill you just didn’t kill you and that’s all we wrote.

The whole form of the movement of modern industry depends,” Marx writes, “upon the constant transformation of a part of the laboring population into unemployed or half-employed hands.”[70] This “surplus population,” as Marx termed it, was a “necessary product,” one that even enhanced capital by being “the lever of capitalist accumulation.”[71] It provides capitalists the well-known “industrial reserve army” that helps control other laborers. Its mere existence conveys many employers’ not-so-subtle whisper: “Don’t forget, we can exploit you as we will, since there are so many more we can hire, and usually for lower wages.
