They Doth Protest Too Much…

Brazil is Burning

In response to the “election” of communist Lula da Silva as President of Brazil, thousands of Brazilian citizens stormed the federal capitol bearing flags and unleashing hell. There are many angles to this situation, but one thing is obvious: the US media can’t help but compare this to the unarmed “insurrection” which occurred at the US Capitol on January 6th, 2022.

China is Burning

People are out rioting in the streets all over China in response to the Chinese-style lockdowns the Communist Party is attempting to enforce on over a billion of it’s own. In a rare display of mass defiance from the general public, the Chinese government begins an unprecedented acquiescence to popular demand at the expense of State interests.

Protests - China 3 Things Get Political

Iran is Burning

Blood runs in the streets. So far, at least 516 Iranian citizens have been killed or executed, and over 1,900 people have been arrested. Official numbers fluctuate but it’s obvious that there is mass murder taking place. There exists a truly violent State, quite rooted in fundamentalism and religion.

Protests - Iran 1 Many Dead

France is… always Burning

Workers in the Energy Industry are taking advantage of a struggling sector and waging a very French uprising in the pursuit of better wages and benefits.

⭐ Prognosis: Breakthrough Why the Mormon Church Loves Your DNA

Baptism Of The Dead - Who knew the LDS hosts the biggest annual genealogy conference called RootsTech. There was 10,000 attendees in London in 2019. It’s a huge conference filled with seminars, keynote speeches, and networking all dedicated to furthering the field of genealogical research. The reasons why Mormons want records may shock you!
- Mormons, Genetics, & Digitized Data
  - Also called Vicarious or proxy baptisms. The Church’s stated goal is all deceased people will someday be baptized. Records are kept around the Globe. Because of this, Mormons have become experts in data storage.
  - They also pioneered the use of microfilm. By 2014, the records were 32 times the size of the US Library of Congress.
  - They got into some hot water for baptizing dead Jews and Catholics! Records were later refused to them.
Tech Then Service - Hear from the Church how their system came about.
Ancestry Dot Com - The plot thickens!
- “The LDS church actively promotes DNA testing for its members to help them discover unknown branches of their family tree, and many of the first popular genetic testing kit companies were created by Mormons. In 2001, Mormon billionaire James Sorenson started one of the earliest genetic test kit companies, Relative Genetics, in part due to his religious interests. It was later bought by Ancestry.com, another Mormon company.”

⭐ DNA-Video-Facebook Coming to FamilySearch

Capturing Social Media - What comes after DNA? Social feeds of course!
- DNA tests may be a big seller this holiday season. Will you be giving away too much
  - “The problem is that when you send away a tube of your spit or a cheek swab, you are giving away your full genetic code. Every cell on that cheek swab carries the full sequence of your DNA, including the mutation pattern that makes it uniquely yours. “It’s the most valuable thing you own,” says Peter Pitts of the Center for Medicine in the Public Interest, a nonprofit advocacy group.”
- What Spotify's DNA-Test Playlist Gets Wrong About Genetic Ancestry
  - LOL: Spotify “launched a collaboration with AncestryDNA. The partnership creates custom playlists for users based on DNA results they input: Oumou Sangaré for Mali, for example, and Ed Sheeran for England.”
