You are wise. All vaxes are entirely unnecessary as viruses don't exist, thus rendering them utterly pointless.

I would encourage you to throw out their demeaning label as words have power and accepting the "Anti" wording implies you have a problem. Are you also an "Anti-drugger" and an "Anti-murderer" and an "Anti-Newser", etc. etc.? See how that works? Aren't we all fundamentally "Anti" the things that cause us harm? But we would never accept such ludicrous labels. They are attempting to smear us with such pitiful rhetoric. Take back control.

You're a "Pro-Truther" and they're "Anti-Truthers". That puts the universe back into balance and re-establishes sanity.

Yes, the label is demeaning. I just say, "I am vaccine horrified after reading the science". (Not "anti" anything.)

I often quote the saying that all "anti-vaxxers" are really "ex-vaxxers."

I like the term ex-vaxxer. I’m not even going to vax my cats in future, from what I’ve seen in past 2 years.

Me neither! Always tried to "get away" with little to no vaccines for our pets - I treated all our horses, dogs, cats, geese and chickens the same as our sons - with herbs and propolis.

But now? I have put veterinarians out of my world along with NPR and many of my old friends (though I think that might have been their choice). I've never had TV or a cell phone or been to an allopath........life is good.

My one cat who we did not vaccinate (he was allergic) lived to 22.5 years. The others (vaxxed) got diabetes, kidney failure, cancer.

Wow. I keep reading stories like yours in the comments from different substacks - from horse and dog breeders, pet owners etc. Our beloved mongrel stray dog - who escaped his sheepherder captors - could run like the wind, and was always so happy and healthy until, not thinking, I let a vet give him multiple "mandatory for travel" vaccines all at one time. After that he would have seizures when running along side of us bike riding or hiking. He lived long, completed his task of raising our four sons, and died at 18, but I know he would have lived well into his 20s without the poisonous injections. We've seen friend's purebreds die horrible deaths immediately after multiple vaccinations several times! WTF.

A major problem is, many people when going away, need to place their pets in temporary boarding.. and most of them insist that pets are vaccinated. Once again.. it’s a lovely multi-billion dollar big-pharma scam at the expense of our pets lives. And just like children, they have absolutely no say in it.

I am also a proud anti-vaxxer, and in my case, that is because I paid close attention in immunology, physiology, microbiology and virology courses in medical school and can see that a person no more needs a vaccine than deltoid piercing jewelry that leaks neurotoxins with antigenic wastewater.

viruses, yes - suprise, suprise, do exist.

however, that does not mean vaxx work ...

connecting vaxx effectiveness to existence of virus is a very sinister argument ... these have nothing to do with each other.

it is aimed for unvaxxed to put them on the wrong path, so when they get sick (which inevitable they will), they will doubt the other side of the argument that vaxx might work after all

Oh they do, do they? Funny how nobody has ever been able to find a unicorn virus in the real world. They can only pretend to invent them via their deceptive monkey kidney culturing process or their human RNA fragment assembling process. Lots of "fake viruses" can be manufactured but none can actually be found in REALITY. How interesting.

Interesting video. Have just watched it.

I believe in viruses because I believe in Hepatitis C.

I taught in the Bronx (NYC) for many years.

Despite having been warned to wear gloves if exposed to the blood of my students, I never did.

The Bronx has extremely high rates of many diseases: AIDS, tuberculosis, asthma, diabetes, and Hepatitis C. I was exposed to TB and, although I never caught it, antibodies for TB exist in my body and TB tests I take are always positive. TB is a disease caused by bacteria.

And I had Hepatitis C for about 20 years. Harvoni produced by Gilead cured it, but the disease has left me with liver and esophageal damage.

https://www.drugs.com/harvoni.html

Perhaps, viral theory will turn out to be incorrect. But right now, if you're bitten by a dog, get rabies shots so you don't die. And if you get Hep C, ask about Harvoni.

Duesberg and Mullis don't believe that the HIV virus causes AIDS and I agree with them. However, to my knowledge, neither has denied the existence of viruses.

there is something going around. andrew kaufman cant deny it. there are billions people sick from biden etc. i was too for a couple of weeks. this is contagious.

however, instead of debating what it is and where it came from, lets learn about Spike Protein which is contained in trillions in so-called vaxx.

Spike Protein is the real threat and it is being shed from the vaxxed to unvaxxed. to say there is nothing to worry about is a mistake.

I'll tell ya what's going around -> Light. Light that is exposing the repressed, stored traumas and conflicts that are held in our bodies (aka "darkness"). Said traumas are being released from the bodies of those who are not STILL/QUIET enough in their daily lives, don't sleep well, and haven't done any inner-work. The light is FORCING the traumas out. This is "Covid".

Colds and flus result from dissatisfaction/disappointment and worry/fear -> "stink conflicts". Your body is protecting you from your figurative fear/worry/unhappiness that you say "stinks" (like, "my family member is sick and this stinks and I'm afraid I'll breathe in an imaginary bug"). Your psyche translates this thought literally and attempts to protect you from blocking your nasal, bronchial and lung passages to protect you from the STINK.

Yeah, almost nobody is ready to hear it, least of all our "trusted" institutional leaders. It destroys "victim consciousness", which has been carefully crafted for centuries that they will fight to uphold at all costs. This is what gives THEM power over the ignorant masses.

We've been lied to about everything that gives THEM an advantage over us that we can't easily verify for ourselves. The cause of diseases, not just fake "infectious diseases", like cancer, heart disease, auto-immune disease, degenerative disease, etc. etc. follows the same pattern. Different albeit very specific unresolved psychological conflicts lead to them all. Fear and judgment are at the root.

You're in charge pandelis, and you underestimate the power of your own thoughts to a degree not yet imaginable. This is what "THEY" don't want you to know. Because when you figure it out, THEY will no longer be able to control you. It's this simple.

I suspect germ theory is basically correct and that viruses exist, although I've read some convincing arguments by Janine Roberts and Leon Scheff that they do not. I agree that it's bad strategy to link the two arguments.

Never thought I would be discussing male circumcision tonight Eddy! Based on my personal family observations and customs; 3 grandsons, one, the oldest circumcised, born in 1995. The second two not circumcised and both born after 2006. I think culturally in North America the practice will die out. To be honest being born in 1950 to be circumcised or not wasn't a big issue.

My father was uncircumcised and was born in 1925. My first husband born in 1950 was inadvertently circumcised because at age 13 he was wrestling with his brothers and somehow managed to split his foreskin. He had an emergency circumcision. My second husband isn't circumcised and was born in 1940. So it's a mixed bag.

However years later I became aware of the practice of female circumcision in other countries. Again, another cultural and in some cases a religious belief that made these practices acceptable. To me as a female this is the greater tragedy.

Unlike male circumcision, female circumcision destroys the pleasure centre. I guess the intent is she won't wander, looking for satisfaction elsewhere. Why would she? There's nothing there.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to talk about something other than covid.

As always I look forward to your comments.

While I agree with you in principle, based on my husband's experience doing it at an older age rather than newly born seemed to be a lot more painful.

As an aside. It was all the rage to yank out tonsils during the later part of my childhood. I had mine removed at age 13 and was in agony after. My younger brother and sister had theirs removed when they were 5 or 6 and didn't share the same horrific experience that I had. Today, we no longer yank out tonsils and I believe that we will no longer continue to remove foreskins. But I'm still worried and concerned about the girls in third world countries that are still being forced to undergo these rituals.

Also a hatred of sex (and women), which was eventually picked up by Paul of Tarsus and became a characteristic of Christianity. Maimonides made it this explicit in the 12th century:

"Maimonides (Moses ben Maimon "Rambam", CE 1135–1204), who apart from being a great Torah scholar was also a physician and philosopher, argued that circumcision serves as a common bodily sign to members of the same faith. He also asserted that the main purpose of the act is to repress sexual pleasure, with the strongest reason being that it is difficult for a woman to separate from an uncircumcised man with whom she has had sex."

Interesting! Yet, the Christians and Jews hate on the other Abrahamic 'religion' and their circumcision practices; then they get really mad when I say this.

Expand full comment

I agree with you, Raven

Hate seems to go with religion..

From my observations as an ESL teacher who has taught people from all over the world, the Christians are the biggest haters, Jews and Muslims slightly less likely to literally demonize those who reject their gods.

Circumcision on women in Africa is even more barbaric than the male circumcision practiced by (mostly but not exclusively) the Jews.

This message is as terrifying as it is simple and compelling. The difficult challenge is how do we overcome this dissonance in our friends and family who made this decision?

The other effect of this is to create division. In Marx’s writings, it was the proletariat & the bourgeoisie, in CRT division is by race, and now they’ve created a division that is more psychologically nuanced, because it is rooted in decisions we have made which have serious implications that stir strong emotions - a master stroke for the propagandists.

I think they did not account adequately for the power of truth, which once known, will overcome.

We can hope your last sentence comes to fruition. I see the essence of this article playing out right in front of me. Almost a year ago I realized that discussing the topic with someone who is vaxxed would almost certainly cause them significant fear even if they didn't believe a word I said, which in and of itself, can cause many problems, including death.

I don't see an easy path forward. The damage has been done. They need to be left with something hopeful/positive or else I believe a discussion can only cause them more harm.

I wish I saw another way but at this, I don't.

Disagree. See my post below. I watched a symposium on Zoom yesterday with a group of 12 doctors from around the world who are treating the vaccine injured and finding some success. A compassionate culture is springing up as a natural reaction to our plight and people are finding courage—even in the medical community. This must be the path forward. We must help the vaxed to find the tools to heal. We are better together.

You just hit the nail on the head for me. Thankyou. I couldn't have expressed it better. That's exactly how I feel.

Today, my cheeky almost 16 year old grandson texted me a bunch of self made memes mocking everything I believe in regarding covid. He believes I am crazy regarding my views on covid.

I could respond and send him terrible articles about the side effects of these shots. He's had 2 so far.

But I can't. Imagine telling him what I believe is the truth. It could destroy him.

This is in my opinion a horrible place to be. He is just one of many in my family that took the shots. I tried to warn them all before they succumbed but to no avail.

I have no idea at this point how to deal, react or cope with this situation with regards to my beloved family. I feel like a helpless standbyer watching a car crash in motion, knowing there is nothing I can do.

If he is to get treatment, then he has to know that he is in grave danger. As a first step he must never get another Covid injection.

I never talked about COVID. I've only said, "Hope you feel better" to people who would start talking about it. Never allowed them to go on and on with describing their symptoms, etc. or their vaccinations or their relative's symptoms.

Every time I said that we are wasting our time trying to get these people to see the truth I was told I should be more optimistic and not give up on them. Throughout my life, I have tried very hard to help people in their careers (I steer clear of giving advice about their personal lives - too many landmines), but I always was quick to give up on people who obviously did not also want to help themselves. Not worth my time; there were many others to help who genuinely wanted to improve their lives.

I don't even try to help the vaccinated or pro-vaxx people I know; they will never see (let alone listen to) the truth. I concentrate on building and strengthening relationships that I know will be productive, especially in the difficult times that lie ahead.

We cannot overcome the dissonance. We have to let it go. We've been trying since March 2020 and the great news that HCQ could be a preventative...

What we have to do is let them go, and claw back our country if we can from the globalists.

Us unvaxxed have to do it. How, I do not know, although I have some ideas.

As the to vaxxed...let them come to it in their own time, if they can. Some will, some will not.

I think above all we have to disband or takeover the six major media conglomerates. Vote red wave in November. Put the breakup of the MSM at the top of the list. Once we can put on what the truth is (and Trump could help us do a country wide citizen class action buyout of the MSM to make up for his blindness)we can change the narrative, and wake the rest of the people up. Without that, he don't have a chance.n This is war. We need to do this pronto.

I think that's an astute possible scenario. The timing must be perfect and everything will come to the boiling point. When the peasants start to revolt the next stage of containment and mandates will make the covid Era look like a walk in the park.

There is a perfect storm of events on the horizon, and putting them in place while the population was distracted by covid, was the perfect and brilliant cover.

In some ways we've gone from the war on terror to the war on pandemics.

And while, historically the peasants have revolted in the past, this time the oppressors have the advantage with Technology.

I'm 72 years old and at this point I fail to see a positive outcome during my lifetime.

On point! I've seen this in action in others and also in myself. I am NOT vaccinated and have had covid 19, and possibly (I never got tested), the lesser variant about two months ago. But I see this mind-game in myself, as many friends and family members have been vaccinated and I cannot conceive of their lifetimes having been reduced by the vaccine. And... neither can they. So it is a big evil no-go swamp of a discussion topic. I recently met a couple at a concert. She was a nurse at the same hospital I went to and was diagnosed as hiving covid 19, in July 2020. This gal and I really hit it off about the music and the venue (I'm 74, she about 34, and her hubby was with her... this was not sexual, just friendly). We were yakking it up, the husband occasionally joining in, very friendly and warm, and then the subject of covid came up and I told her how I was 'refused' treatment (HCQ) and simply 'sent home' to live or die. (They told me that if my lips turned blue or black, to get myself to the emergency ward ASAP. That was it.) Well, once I brought that up I could see the veils on her eyes descend. The conversation began to shut down. I would say that even at this late stage, 90% of people WILL NOT believe such a thing was done to us. AND, if and when they find out, they will, I believe, literally, tear the doctors and employers who forced them to take the shot... to shreds. But the 'if' is a big one. We are still not there. Just not there yet.

First she say well they didn't know back then about those treatments, because they would never have done that. I said, yes, many people knew about the treatments and the information was demonized and withheld. So she said well if what you are saying is true this worse than 9/11. I said I guess it is.

Fucked so many times over so many years the Covid con worked. The election con worked. The cover up works. The Kingdom of God is not of this world after all and to expect Americans to stop and revise everything taught and told is improbable. November likely has another stolen election. And since two years ago the theft worked I doubt not it will once more. We are clearly in a moment of history where all the lies come home to roost. I do not think Americans can wake up. How many remain masked? Congress capitulates. Courts are corrupt. Arguably the over all result of Covid and denial will kill millions and by then the survivors will face a war with Russia.

Secular hope, no. Spiritual hope yes. Berdyaev writes on this in his context of the Russian revolution of 1905 and later. With admirable pith and clarity, Berdiaev lays bare the poverty and the narrowness of thought embedded in the culture of several generations of Russian radicalism, from Belinsky to the Marxists. He discloses a virulent strain of pseudo-religious beliefs, barely concealed under the professions of atheism that united the various factions of that schismatic sect. The prime example of this is the elevation of the moral imperative of social justice as the highest category of truth (pravda), above and beyond the criteria of intellectual integrity associated with truth as veritas. He attributes this root phenomenon to “the orientation of their will,” rather than to a defect in thinking.5

But in his conclusion, Berdiaev mitigates his indictment of the misguided rebels by laying the blame squarely on those who still held the reins of power in Russia and ruled it in the name of a debased version of Christianity. He writes: “The Russian intelligentsia has been what Russian history has made it. The sins of our morbid history, of our historical system of government, and of eternal reaction are reflected in its psychological make–up.”6It is a very self-revealing assessment, showing Berdiaev’s irreducible sympathy for the gesture of human liberation, no matter how flawed. It also raises the question of responsibility for the evils in Russian society from the arena of politics to a meta-historical level.

As Berdyaev saw it, the course of historical Christianity, with its sins of omission and commission, can be traced back to its fall away from Christ and His gift of freedom into the trap of the temporal world. That conversion of freedom into necessity is perennially repeated in the tragic fate of creativity in human culture, which reifies every inspired act into an objective value or, worse still, degrades it into a commodity. Formed in the crucible of his personal experience of Christianity, the tragic sense of life is fundamental to Berdyaev’s philosophical outlook. But unlike for Nietzsche, who shared that sense with him, it is not an aesthetic but a spiritual value. https://isi.org/modern-age/nikolai-berdiaev-and-spiritual-freedom-a-reconsideration/

I don't mean to be a total jerk here, but if they had been that badly brutalized as children, they would now totally understand what was actually taking place now. Weary wisdom is one of the few advantages of a truly brutal childhood, if one even survives it. I'm not suggesting that children be further brutalized. Imo, too many have been comfortably coddled into the "acquisition of material goods" tract...is the rub. At many points in almost anyone's life, the choice to reject that tract is always presented, multiple times. And people choose, again and again. I'm not certain we move things too much forward by throwing up our hands at 'fake everything' like we never, ever once were given a choice. But it's a great strategy for holding on to our goodies and avoiding the inevitable slings and arrows of the road less traveled. Damn, without faith?...that's one scary road.

Not a zombie. Several reasons we are still here:

Family.

Where we earn our income (the Franchise Tax Board emulates the USSR in ensuring even if we leave we still have to pay The State. A minimum of 13 conditions c. 2014, to avoid this fate.).

Best place to grow food when the famine hits - our specific location is relatively bug-free and perfect for year-around cultivation.

Constant questions: where will we be least/most vulnerable/free; what state(s) are least/most vulnerable to the same fate as CA.

Cost of changing domicile - we are full-time RVrs, there are only 2 states that we could domicile in ‘problem-free’... we both have Medicare which eliminates health insurance as a problem...gas required to check out possibilities and begin establishing new community so we can become citizens of another state ($3000 to travel 1500 miles, missed a family reunion; and the attendant discomfort due to topic of post+many comments).

That’s a partial list.

Not a reason for us to stay, but for some it is: “stay and fight”.

Every day brings fresh reasons to leave.

I read a book long ago by Larry Dossey called Healing Words about intercessory prayer, in which he presents evidence on effects from prayer. The prayer that seemed to have the most salutory effects was "may the best possible outcome prevail" so I pray this, despite being utterly allergic to organized religious dogma, on my exercycle while listening to mindless music from the fifties (I would refuse to live in a cosmos, should there be an ultimate ground of being that listens, that couldn't get behind Build Me Up Buttercup). Maybe there are consciousnesses beyond our chimp brains that listen, maybe there's a quantum biological field that our concerted attention can move, and maybe it is just like the Niels Bohr horseshoe story: he had a horseshoe on his barn, and someone asked him why a physicist like himself would have such a superstitious luck talisman on his barn, and he said "they say it works whether you believe it or not" !

Evil: morally reprehensible: sinful, wicked

(Merriam-Webster Dictionary)

The two rhinoceroses at the party to which no one in the theodicy debate has paid attention are the connotation (and denotation) of the word “evil” and the presumption that the presence of what is called “evil” by Christians and other delusional or misinformed souls is an anomaly.

There’s a 1947 short film called Les Assassins de l’Eau Douce (Assassins of Fresh Water). It lasts 27 minutes during which micro-photographed fresh water animals are shown “killing and imbibing one another by every sort of biting, stabbing, stinging, sucking, and ingesting process that the endless ingenuity of Mother Nature has evolved.” (1)

The movie is a microcosm of the universe. From the smallest organisms to vast galaxies, violence is the common denominator, as Herzog correctly observes.

The vast Andromeda galaxy, next to ours, has a violent past that will culminate in it eating our Milky Way, astronomers say. The galaxy's powerful past has seen it eat several smaller galaxies just as it will go on to swallow ours, researchers say.

In the very short time that humans have evolved and attempted to live together, they have tried to limit and control this violence within the tribe and eventually among tribes. They have developed systems of rules and laws-- principles of conduct governing an individual or a group that would become eventually morph into systems of ethics or moral codes after the evolution of religions.

Once gods entered the picture, certain activities were not only unlawful because they threatened the fabric of the social unit, but “evil” or “sinful” because shamans and charlatans informed their flocks that certain actions were offensive to the gods.

The theodicy debate is getting into a fight with a tar- baby. Existentialists, secularists, reductive materialists or whatever the hell we call ourselves(2), will end up stuck and covered with muck. Evil is a Christian word and a Christian concept. The universe we inhabit has never been an Edenic paradise free of “chaos, hostility and murder”.

The problem of evil is a subterfuge. It is answering the wrong question. It’s a waste of time. Evil, like the gods, does not exist: it’s as real as pregnant virgins, walking cadavers, and transubstantiation.

Love and harmony are not the guiding principles of the universe.

Get over it.

When one pares down the Christian theme to "God sacrifices himself to himself" (a supposed improvement on demanding sacrifices from all), charges of atheistic nihilism and solipsism are a bit like the pot calling the kettle black.

But there's clearly something about Sacrifice that humans resonate with. The entire covid horror is a Symphony in the key of human sacrifice: sacrifice your job, sacrifice your health, sacrifice your kids' health, sacrifice simple human pleasures like family holidays or nights out. And none of this is by mistake. There are real demons demanding these sacrifices, they are well aware of what they are demanding, and their hunger for your pain and your destruction is bottomless.

Not when one is correct and one is wrong.

I realized that aspect too, while first working on writing up Todd Callender’s interview about the 2005 WHO International Health Regulations:

“The goals and actions of the individual humans working on the global Covid-19 democide project are so brazenly and profoundly evil that good human minds shut down the instant they confront the information. We recoil instinctively — emotionally, cognitively and spiritually — from the extraordinary saturation of evil; we struggle to grasp how it can be so comprehensive in its scope and destructive in its force.

The human perpetrators and their Satanic accomplices have instituted many layers of legal and media control and distortion of information to demoralize and confuse their victims.

But our natural recoiling phenomenon, our fingertip-on-a-hot-stove natural human withdrawal from evil, provides them with powerful additional camouflage for the evil acts, because the mind of the observer will self-add the camouflage of "this is so evil, it can't possibly be true" adding to the layers of legal and media propaganda cover the perpetrators control and impose themselves.”

I don't think evil is ever banal!

Hannah Arendt's book about Eichmann's trial is called Eichmann In Jerusalem: A Report On the Banality of Evil. Her book angered many people because of her characterization of Eichmann as a dull bureaucrat who was just following orders. Eichmann lied during his trial to make it seem as though that were the reality. Arendt fell for his lies. Not everyone did!

We now have hard evidence that he was lying, via voice recordings that have come to light in which he speaks to another Nazi (after the war) about his feelings toward the Jews and what he was trying to accomplish. His goal was to murder 10.5 million of them, essentially all of world Jewry at the time. He says so in the tapes.

I did not mean to suggest in any way that radical evil is banal - only that very banal, superficial people can commit it, especially through an organization.

With the vaxxed, I harp on the fact that the shots didn't work. Period. If they don't know I'm not vaxxed, I tell them I'm not getting any boosters or any more shots, that I gave two years of my life to slay the beast and now I'm going to live my life. No more masking, shots etc. I tell them I've amped up my vitamin D and I'll take an "anti-viral" if I get Covid. Sometimes the conversation goes to Ivermectin vs. Paxlovid and I'm encouraged that with some people they "get" that anti-virals work. Sometimes I talk about IVM having better safety data so I'd choose that one. People seem more open to accepting IVM now since that shit Paxlovid is also an "anti-viral." It's a step in the right direction. Some of my vaxxed friends aren't getting any more shots. One admitted he's never felt the same since getting them with joint inflammation. One thing I never do is talk about the injuries and side effects of these shots with the vaxxed. My emphasis is don't get anymore.
