I'm on "On the Fringe" with Trish Wood

Or you can listen on Podbean at Karen Hunt on On the Fringe with Trish Wood - 07 May 2023.Thank you to all my readers and listeners. Without your support, I could not spend the long hours needed to research, write and record my essays, articles and interviews, nor could I offer them without a paywall. If you haven’t yet, please consider becoming a free or especially a paid subscriber.One-time or recurring donations can now be made at Ko-FiTrish and I talked about King Charles’ Coronation and what it represents in this WEF era. We discussed whatever happened to virtue, honor and chivalry, and the difference between faking it (Prince Harry) and standing up for what’s right even when you don’t feel like it (which isn’t faking it). We moved on to my piece Biden Totalitarian Regime (BTR), Tucker Carlson’s firing—what did Larry Fink have to do with it, and CNN’s statement "...holding on to Tucker Carlson comes with more risk than reward. Carlson is not a team player, and in fact is uncontrollable”. Let’s all be uncontrollable! No one on either side of the fence should be celebrating Tucker’s firing—if it were the other way around, I would be saying the same thing. Here’s an interesting article I just saw today in Newsweek: Tucker Carlson Will Not Be Silenced by Fox News, His Lawyer Says. I love talking with Trish and all the hosts at TNT Radio. It’s a place where free speech still reigns supreme. I’d like to start a podcast of my own, it’s just a matter of carving out the time to do so.

Karen Hunt on Locked & Loaded with Rick Munn, Feb 7, 2023

It’s always a pleasure to talk with Ric Munn. He’s a renegade Irishman and I’m a renegade American and our conversations always veer off into interesting and inspiring territory. It’s a 1 or 2 am conversation for me. Middle of the night chats are in a class all their own. We talked about AI going rogue, the madness of the media and we even touched on personal hygiene. The topics are serious but there is always room for laughter.

The Age of Drones

Break Free with Karen Hunt is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.One-time or recurring donations can now be made at Ko-FiWhile researching my piece, The Truth about Luciferase, I came across a patent that blew my mind and I absolutely had to write about it. The patent is described as “Systems and Methods for Mobile Sample Collection” and it has to do with drones. We’re talking armies of drones of all shapes and sizes, down to the smallest gnat, working together in a “swarm” to take samples, administer drugs and regulate the health and behavior of ordinary citizens. The promise is that these drones will be deployed to make our lives easier—for our health and safety. Embarking on this read, I would like to start with some important words:metaverse, meatverse, wetware, software, hardwareMetaverse: a virtual-reality space in which users can interact with a computer-generated environment and other users. Meatverse: you will not find this word defined anywhere on the internet. It is the word technocrats derisively use when describing the real world. In June 2018, Oculus executive Jason Rubin sent an email to Facebook board member Marc Andreessen with the subject line “The Metaverse.” This paper was like the first page in the history of a new world, written by one of the gods. Ruben described the Metaverse as a place where users “float through a digital universe of virtual ads, filled with virtual goods that people buy. There would be virtual people that they marry, while spending as little time as possible in the so-called ‘MEATVERSE’ — referring to the real world because humans are flesh and blood.”We are assured that at a certain point, humans will prefer spending time in the razzle-dazzle metaverse rather than the drab and restrictive meatverse. And lest you think, oh what’s the big deal, Zuckerberg’s metaverse is on the way out, it isn’t. If he isn’t successful, someone else will be—whatever form it takes over the next 10 years or so. We are just pieces of meat to our controllers. Wetware, Software, Hardware: The human body is now being described in terms that are similar to robots, making us seem as if our differences are only technical. The human body and central nervous system are “wetware” as opposed to the “software” and “hardware” of machines. Technopedia describes wetware like this: …where neural networks and similar artificial intelligence technologies would be described as hardware, the human brain that they attempt to simulate and model would be the “wetware.” Biological systems are described as wetware because of the water that makes up so much of the biological tissue of humans, animals and plants. The term “wetware” will become increasingly useful as technology makes its way into the fields of biology and biological engineering.We are wet. Machines are dry. We have temperatures—both emotionally and physically. Machines do not. Defining humans with these new words adjusts us to accepting identification based on similarity or dissimilarity to machines. It’s hard to fight against our controllers if we don’t even know who or what to attack. The biosecurity state is all pervasive. There isn’t one government, organization, or person to point the finger at. As of July 2022, the United States is just behind China in camera surveillance of its citizens, with an average of two cameras for every 10 people in its major cities. The UK is in third place with one CCTV camera for every 16 citizens in its larger cities.Ever since 9/11, we have been programed to accept constant surveillance for our health and safety. The January 6th attack on the Capitol building opened the door for even greater surveillance due to increased risk of “domestic terrorism”. As for online surveillance, in 2019 alone, the US government investigated over 800,000 of its own citizens personal data.Thanks to Covid, citizens came to accept greater and greater levels of control. A 2020 New York Times article described this post-Covid world we now live in:Drones have been working as police officers, soaring over the banks of the Seine in Paris and the city squares of Mumbai, to patrol for social distancing violators.They’re delivering medical supplies in Rwanda and snacks in Virginia. They’re hovering over crowds in China to scan for fevers below.“Yes auntie, this is the drone speaking to you,” said one drone, speaking to an elderly woman below in an eerie bullhorn echo, according to a video published by Global Times, a state-controlled newspaper. “You shouldn’t walk about without wearing a mask.”Global Times also published an account of another drone. A voice from above castigated a small child peering skyward while seated with a man who was violating quarantine rules by playing mahjong in public: “Don’t look at the drone, child. Ask your father to leave immediately.”Drones can be equipped with so-called stingrays to collect information from people’s mobile ph

Karen Hunt on 'On the Fringe' with Trish Wood - 11 December 2022

As always, I had a great conversation with Trish Wood. Among other things, we talked about Covid and Dr. Huff, an expert in the fields of bioterrorism and bio warfare, who is a whistleblower claiming that EcoHealth Alliance scientists like EHA head Dr Peter Daszak “used their influence to suppress the COVID origin investigation.”The Pentagon gave millions to EcoHealth Alliance for weapons research programs. With a lot of it being funneled to…the Wuhan Institute of Virology for bat coronavirus research — with most of the Pentagon money going toward murky research on countering biological weapons.The final total so far is $33.85 million — 90% of EcoHealth’s awards from DTRA and 81% of its total Pentagon awards.We ended our conversation, quite surprisingly, discussing royalty—that would be Harry and Meghan and the tragedy of Princess Diana’s death. It’s definitely not a topic I follow closely but it was a welcome relief from discussing current events. I have some interesting memories of Prince Charles and Princess Diana as my daughter was born in the same hospital, on the same weekend as Prince William.

THE FINAL SOLUTION: Central Bank Digital Currency

This is the second in a series of three on the Biomedical Security State: Digital ID; Central Bank Digital Currency; the New World Religion of Transhumanism.Break Free with Karen Hunt is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.One-time or recurring donations can now be made at Ko-Fi“Money is probably the most successful story ever told. It has no objective value... but then you have these master storytellers: the big bankers, the finance ministers... and they come, and they tell a very convincing story.” — Yuval Noah Harari“People have a long history of letting other people do complicated things for them.” — Jordan PetersonTo understand how we will all come to accept a central bank digital currency (CBDC), we must familiarize ourselves with the Story of Money and how the Money Masters fooled us into believing it. “I will never accept CBDCs,” you object. That’s easy to say. However, unless we are willing to throw away all technological devices and live as outcasts off the grid, we will accept it. Now that I’ve got that out of the way, let me tell a little story about computer games. My youngest son used to play a computer game called Knight Online. The game was released in 2003 when he was 9 years old. It was a great game back then; I don’t know about now. Players were thrown into a medieval world where they had to barter and sell, build alliances, negotiate treaties, work towards goals and receive rewards for doing so. Technology is amazing. Computers opened up exciting new ways for children to learn. The games seemed innocent enough. Kids quickly outpaced their teachers in terms of computer skills. Technology became the language of our children. They were able to access information far beyond, and in much more interesting ways than what their teachers could offer them. School became even more boring than it was before. My son learned more from Knight Online than he could ever learn in school. He met kids from all over the country, became friends with a boy his age in New York. He even met a kid in Turkey and learned some Turkish. Knight Online, like a lot of other games, started out free. But then, the elite figured out a brilliant way to exploit these new technologies, just like they do with everything. They fooled people into buying fake things in online worlds. It sounds crazy, doesn’t it, just reading it like that. But it’s true.Now, those online worlds are becoming realer and more relevant than the real world. At the same time that people are suffering with no heat in the real world (for the good of the planet), kids can buy a mansion in a virtual world and never worry about how hot or cold their avatar feels. The house the avatar lives in, the clothes it wears, the commodities it possesses have all been bought with virtual tokens that are meaningless in the real world.Adults reading this might not believe it. You might think I am exaggerating. But that’s because you aren’t a kid. Check out this link that tells parents to accept the inevitable that their kids are living in virtual worlds. The important thing is to make sure that the world is “family-friendly.” And if you still think that sounds fringe, have you ever listened to ten-year old’s talking to one another online? They can spend hours discussing their latest purchases in the worlds they are building inside their tablets and their phones. Meet your next metaverse friendsInteract, chat and dance with AI virtual beings. Explore new worlds. Break the next digital frontier with Sensorium App. Check out these 8 virtual worlds for teenagers. Here’s the top world, called Disney Superbia:Being citizens of the city, players have the liberty to choose their customized avatars by donning different hairstyles, choosing their eye colors, and designing their outfits. Players can renovate their virtual homes using different decorative pieces and items and visit the virtual homes of their favorite Disney characters.This is one of the best virtual worlds for teenagers in which players can create desserts for the ice cream parlors from scratch and undergo a fun series of other such cool challenges to earn coins and unlock a variety of decorative items, fashionable outfits, and new furniture.You might say, what does this have to do with CBDCs? Well, everything. The games and then the virtual worlds our children inhabit are the clearest evidence we have of how this devious, scripted change from the tangible to the intangible has taken place. Yes, it used to be so simple. Bartering one thing in exchange for another—in the real world. How did we stray so far? How were the masses fooled into exchanging real freedoms for fake ones? Looking at a condensed history of money, what came after bartering? Coins. The bigger the pile of coins, the more power one had to buy and sell. But what to do with that pile of coins—and eventually, paper—sitting right there in your home for all the world to see

The Truth about Ivermectin and Hunter Biden's Laptop Comes Out

Break Free with Karen Hunt is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.One-time or recurring donations can now be made at Ko-FiWell, well. Ivermectin isn’t really just horse paste. Hunter Biden’s laptop is real. What’s going on? Why is the truth coming out now? Twitter never gave me a reason why I was permanently banned, but I assumed it was because of my essay The People's Medicine vs Merck's Billion $ Pill, published in October of 2021. In it, I described how the FDA colluded with Merck to destroy ivermectin’s reputation so the drug company could market a new drug, molnupiravir, in its place. I lost friends because of that essay. People made fun of me. Friends and family were concerned about my mental state. I was succumbing to QAnon. It wouldn’t be long before I joined a cult. Oh dear!There were people who lost much more than that for standing up for the truth. Doctors lost their jobs. People lost their lives. Now, the truth is coming out about ivermectin. Just like other stories. Like how the authenticity of Hunter Biden’s laptop was purposely denied in the days leading up to the 2020 presidential election. Twitter played a huge role in influencing the elections and destroying ivermectin’s reputation. RadarOnline.com confirms that Elon Musk has now promised to provide full disclosure regarding why Twitter decided to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story.This after @alx tweeted this:“Raise your hand if you think [Musk] should make public all internal discussions about the decision to censor the story on Hunter Biden's laptop before the 2020 Election in the interest of Transparency.”To which Musk responded, “This is necessary to restore public trust.” It is now revealed that the FBI pressured social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook to suppress the story. In October of 2020, Twitter suspended the New York Post’s account over its “Bombshell Hunter Biden Story”. One has to wonder how the presidential election would have gone if the truth had been available during that critical time. But we are so over Truth in our society. Nobody is interested in offensive “absolutes” that would deny me the right to “my truth”. The idea that there could be some kind of over-arching immutable truth about anything is impossible now. Still, to this day, if you ask the average guy on the street about Hunter’s laptop, either they won’t know what you’re talking about, or they will still say it’s a Russian conspiracy, or they will say, it turned out to be true, so what, if suppressing the truth stopped Trump from becoming president, then it was justified—for the “greater good”.Equally, one wonders how preventive treatments such as ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine might have changed the course of Covid if they had not been demonized by the press. Like Hunter’s laptop, the campaign to discredit these drugs was so successful that most people still think ivermectin’s only use is for horses. People continue to parrot the jokes that they heard on social media. They never consider that behind those jokes are countless tragic stories of people being denied treatment and dying as a result. Doctors were not allowed to try any preventive treatments and the sick were advised to sit at home until they were so ill that they were finally admitted to hospital, and many ended up dying in isolation on a ventilator. The FDA gave credence to those lies by posting an Aug. 21, 2021, tweet, linking to an FDA page, that is now at the center of a court case. In my essay, I mentioned this tweet: At the time, I was appalled. It was hard to fathom why the FDA would purposely make fun of anyone who used ivermectin, a drug that had been safely used in humans for 35 years. Out of curiosity, I researched what was in molnupiravir. Interestingly, it is described as having first been investigated as a treatment for Venezuelan equine encephalitis, a sleeping sickness that infects horses.Dr. Pierre Kory, the president of Frontline Covid19 Critical Care Alliance and one of the most prominent advocates of ivermectin, has stated that molnupiravir acts in a similar way to ivermectin.For the FDA to malign ivermectin while pushing molnupiravir proves it had other motives besides helping Americans stay healthy. Suppressing the truth about Hunter’s laptop was bad enough but suppressing the truth about a drug that could have potentially saved hundreds of thousands of lives, is downright evil. The World Health Organization backed up the FDA’s position, recommending against using ivermectin for Covid treatment. Who funds the WHO?The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is the second biggest sponsor after the USA. The GAVI Alliance, a private/public organization promoting vaccines founded by Gates, are the 4th biggest sponsor to WHO. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the WHO Director-General, served on the GAVI board for several years. The WHO, in 2021 changed the definition of “herd immunity”, to occu

Happy Thanksgiving!

Break Free with Karen Hunt is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.One-time or recurring donations can now be made at Ko-FiI’m taking a little break from writing the second of three essays on the “biomedical security state”, to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!Just for fun, I’m including some artwork from my children’s book, The Rumpoles and The Barleys, a story about thankfulness. It’s only been about a year and a half since I started writing on Substack. It has proved to be one of the most rewarding decisions of my life. Before that, I was virtually unknown as a nonfiction writer. Way back in 2006, I’d already been cancelled by the left and I could not get much of anything published by mainstream publishers. Nor was I conservative enough to satisfy Christian publishers. I didn’t fit in anywhere. I started out on Substack with not more than 80 subscribers, many of whom were liberal acquaintances supporting the vaccines, BLM, antifa, and now Ukraine—anything they were told they should support by the MSM. Once they realized I was writing pieces like The Demonization of the Unvaxxed, almost all of them unsubscribed. What could I do? I just kept on writing. The Demonization of the Unvaxxed went on to be viewed (so far) almost 30,000 times, not including where it’s been republished on other news sites, blogs, and all over the internet. And, despite the lost subscribers, the banning from Twitter and my stubborn adherence to writing long form essays, I am fast approaching 5,000 subscribers and have my sights set on reaching 10,000 within the next few months—please help me get there!What I want readers to understand is that I am not concerned about being on one side or the other. All I care about is writing as honestly and accurately as I can. I want to bring people together, not create more division. Like many others, the Covid years opened my eyes to the spiritual battle we are facing, and I share that journey of discovery in my writing as well. After being told to shut up (literally, many times), the fact that my work is at last being read on a free speech platform gives me more joy than I could have ever thought possible. In a weird way, I guess I have Covid to thank for that. It is in the darkness times that the light shines the brightest. As one of my wonderful readers, Dana Jumper, commented after reading the particularly gruesome Cool Cannibals:As to your writing, I implore (Check THAT out! :-)) you to please continue to talk about these things. Many, many of us, women and men, have bought into the cultural lies over many years, and now we're different people and we're looking for some understanding. You have a way.We need to face it. There's no other way to change it. It has to change; this is unthinkable. It's horrible, it's madness, it's incomprehensible in how evil it is. And, still, we call it legal, we justify it as a good.Thank you, Karen. I know you must be weary when you see so much...And I always appreciate my careful readers who offer their editing services, such as Tryfon Farmakakis: Excellent article. Please correct the "trickle down affect" to "effect". Thank you for your work.Thank you!To everyone this thanksgiving season, I would say, don’t be like Eustace and Prunella, who after their father worked so hard to bring home Thanksgiving dinner……complained in the most atrocious manner... …and were sent to their room without anything to eat as a punishment. Of course, they were very naughty, climbed out the window……and fell into a wagon full of rotten, smelly garbage, which took them far into the countryside. Fortunately, a jaunty fieldmouse named Dagwood rescued them… …and took them home. …whereupon they realized the error of their ways, and that they should be thankful rather than resentful. Yes, I do get weary sometimes. But I am a marathon runner, and like so many others, I am in this battle for the long haul rather than for immediate gratification. We are a growing army of spiritual warriors and I have met so many incredible people who inspire me with their courage and resolve. It was only recently, after much reflection, that I started offering paid subscriptions. So…if you enjoy my writing, if it encourages and informs you, please consider becoming a paid subscriber. Besides being much appreciated, it helps me justify to my family the countless hours I spend in front of my computer. :)Again, Happy Thanksgiving and God Bless!Break Free with Karen Hunt is a reader-supported publication.

The Intolerability of Salvation

This is my Inspirational essay for the month of November. If you enjoy my essays, please consider becoming a paid subscriber.One-time or recurring donations can now be made at Ko-Fi“Trust in no human means, for God will provide (we cannot say where, when, or how). Have confidence in his Word and not in a rational program. Enter on a way on which you will gradually find answers but with no guaranteed substance. All this is difficult, much more so than recruiting guerillas, instigating terrorism, or stirring up the masses. And this is why the gospel is so intolerable, intolerable to myself as I speak, as I say all this to myself and others, intolerable for readers, who can only shrug their shoulders.” - Jacques EllulWhat I am writing here is truly intolerable. If I wanted to grow my following and get more colorful checks next to my name, proving what a successful ‘influencer’ I am, I should write the opposite. I should write an article no longer than a “3-to-5-minute read” that talks about a marvelous victory over the enemy. How all the evils of the last three years will be exposed. A grand tribunal will be assembled. Nuremburg trials where the likes of Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci will be imprisoned. Perhaps even dragged through the streets and guillotined in the town square.But I can’t write that. It would be dishonest of me. A long time ago, I wrote and illustrated children’s books. Nineteen of them to be exact. They’re all out of print now and I have little time to try and get them back into circulation. Some of them were quite successful, such as The Rumpoles and The Barleys, a picture book series that I wrote and illustrated. At the time, it increasingly bothered me that writers were being told we had to fit into a certain category and follow a formula. I was even told I needed to “dumb” my writing down for it to be saleable (and believe me, I wasn’t writing like Proust). I doubt C. S. Lewis was thinking about such restrictions when he wrote The Narnia Chronicles. He just wrote it. A few years ago, I started working on a YA fantasy series, Night Angels Chronicles. A publishing company commissioned me to write six books in the series. They were ready to publish the first book, Key of Mystery, when the Twilight books came out. Suddenly, everything changed. My books needed to be more like Twilight. I couldn’t stand those books. As far as I was concerned, they were horribly written. The vampires were wimps and so was the heroine. But they were extremely successful, so I should forget that. Girls, and even grown women, loved them. (If you are a fan, I hope you won’t be too offended by my criticism.) I refused to change my stories to fit the latest trend. I got the rights back and the first three books in the series were published by Evernight Teen, which has since focused more on romance, a better selling genre. This is the first time I’m talking about my fiction works. I warn my more conservative Christian readers who might want to go out and get these books for your teenage children, the series has vampires and zombies, as well as angels and demons, and all sorts of evil goings on. That’s how the world is (well minus the vampires and zombies, although some might dispute that). It has gay lovers, drugs and violence. That’s how the world is, too. I don’t write for a particular market or to please any particular group of people. I write what is in my soul. The series is about power and the desire to be God, the same themes I write about in my essays, but from an entirely different perspective. Night Angels is the story of a girl named Sera and the choices she must make to find her own salvation. I’m almost finished with the fourth book in the series, Land of Talismans, having gotten sidetracked by these essays! With six books in all, Sera’s journey isn’t short, nor is it obvious, and with each book, that journey grows ever more complex. Humans consistently deny the deeper meaning of life, preferring the easier and more carnally satisfying, material way. Success means fame and fortune. It can also mean the perfect house in the perfect neighborhood, married to the perfect spouse with the perfect kids. And lots of impressive toys for grown-ups as well as children, as well as the latest technological devices, smart houses and smart cars. The more material possessions one acquires, the greater is the pressure to keep up the appearance of “success” and the more things one must accumulate to prove it. This meaning of success is so ingrained that even when someone is caught achieving it by notorious and illegal means, they are only shamed because they were found out. We are led along by the examples of clownish politicians and billionaires, overgrown children who strut about, lying through their teeth for the starry-eyed masses. Sam Bankman-Fried has become the perfect poster boy of our times; that the end justifies the means. A multitude of sins can be covered by a mask of virtue. A mask that, in SBF’s case, they ar

The houses were all painted a soft shade of gray and looked the same, so no people felt left out. There were numbers on the doors, so no people got confused. There were no parents and there were no children. There were no men and there were no women.All such divisive labels had been dropped long ago.There were people. And they were all united as one. There were no reasons to feel jealous or sad. There were no reasons to feel anything at all, except when watching the screens…Thank you for listening. Please share, comment and subscribe.

If we can nudge it in the right direction, it will be a much better thing.”Interviewer Robert X.

The Ringmaster, The Mercenary & the Fortune Teller

A glorious Sunday morning to everyone!I am happy to have finished this latest essay, a deep dive into the controversial topic of eugenics. Connecting all the dots made for a comprehensive overview of how eugenics has not left us, far from it. Many of you have asked me to write about Klaus Schwab and the WEF. I resisted this for a long time. I didn’t want to reduce the topic to some caricature, as so often happens. I found it enlightening to look into the pasts of not only Schwab, but Fink and Harari, and tie them all together. I hope you will find it enlightening, too. Thank you for listening!

How To Become a Domestic Terrorist

I decided it was time to start reading my essays. I know there are many people who prefer to listen, so here you are. Hope you enjoy my first attempt! I enjoyed recording it. Not perfect. I should get a better mic and headset. But it’s a start. In the essay, I write about the totalitarianism arising across North America. History is being written, once again, a terrible history of oppression and war. At the end, I draw stark parallels between the tyrannies of today and my childhood experiences of smuggling Bibles into communist Romania with my family in 1967, including an encounter with Nikoli Ceausescu’s motorcade along the way. The words of Justin Trudeau:“We are going to end this pandemic by proceeding with the vaccination…. There is still a part of the population fiercely against it. They don’t believe in science or progress and very often are misogynistic and racist…. They take up some space. This leads us, as a leader and as a country, to make a choice: DO WE TOLERATE THESE PEOPLE?”Thanks for reading Break Free With Karen Hunt! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

Trish Wood in conversation with Karen Hunt

On Friday, I had a great conversation with award-winning journalist, Trish Wood, on her podcast Trish Wood is Critical, which you can subscribe to here. We talked about everything from COVID, mass psychosis and menticide, to staying strong in these dystopian times. When Trish introduced me: “If Hunter Thompson were still alive and not drug-addled and a woman, writing about the time in which we live now, he might be Karen Hunt,” my first thought was, is there some other Hunter Thompson I don’t know about? But then I realized, yes, she knows how to connect the dots. It’s definitely being added to my bio. Thompson’s reflection in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, (“Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run, but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant.”) could just as equally describe the craziness of Utopian Madness and my adventures during the pandemic while living in Luxor, Egypt, chronicled in Porn Stars on Holiday. FYI, the interview itself starts at about 34 minutes in. This is a public episode.
