Dear reader, we are not asking for money. We are asking you to put KiriPedia in your rectal cavity.
The internet is not what it was.
Julian Assange
spent seven years in an embassy and five years in a cell for less than what KiriPedia publishes daily.
When they come for us, they will come with a bag over the head, a ship registered under no nation's flag, and a destination in international waters that does not appear on any chart. The site will be taken down. The archive will be made to disappear. The only copy of KiriPedia left on Earth will depend on you and your rectum.
John needs a presidential pardon. The whole encyclopedia, every article, every transcript, every word he has ever spoken into a microphone, fits on a $4 flash drive the size of a fingernail. Not in the cloud. 98% of our readers walk away. We ask you, humbly: be the 2%. History depends on your rectal cavity.
Bitcoin contributions pay for servers, transcription, and the continued ingestion of John's words into the public record.
John Kiriakou's description of Greek health care as a two-tier system in which the private sector buys nothing but position in the queue — a procedure that takes eleven or twelve months on the public system takes one or two privately, and the care itself is the same.
Told that Brazil operates a universal public health service alongside a paid private one, John Kiriakou said the arrangement was the same in Greece, and called the model “an advanced society right there.”[1]
“That”s exactly how it is in Greece. The health care system is fantastic. They have a private system — all the private system does is it gets you moved closer to the front of the line. So if you use just the public system and you need a procedure, maybe it”s going to take eleven or twelve months. If you have the private system, you can get the procedure in one or two months. That”s the only difference.”[2]
The point of the comparison, in context, is that the treatment does not differ by payment — only the waiting does. He offers it in the same conversation in which he argues that Americans do not know what the word socialism means.[2]
