Just a Little Pinprick

I knew that the Pink Floyd song "Another Brick in the Wall" had been adapted to counter vaccination propaganda but this video was the first time I'd really heard all the lyrics.

Regarding the original song, the following recent June 15th 2021 story is interesting:

Pink Floyd's Roger Waters says 'fuck you' to Zuckerberg, turns down Facebook's 'huge' offer

Roger Waters don't need no Facebook money. The Pink Floyd co-founder revealed he recently received a "huge" offer from Facebook to use the band's song "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2" in an ad for Instagram — and he turned it down with some pointed words for CEO Mark Zuckerberg. "It arrived this morning with an offer of a huge, huge amount of money," Waters said, per CNN. "And the answer is, 'Fuck you. No fucking way!'" Waters went further by blasting Facebook's "insidious movement" to "take over absolutely everything," declaring he will "not be a party to this bullshit" while mockingly quoting from Zuckerberg's "missive" to him and blasting the Facebook boss as a "little prick." He made his comments at a pro-Julian Assange event, Rolling Stone reports. "How the fuck did he get any power in anything?" Waters asked of Zuckerberg. "And yet here he is, one of the most powerful idiots in the world." Source

Roger Waters is to be applauded for his outspokenness and he is to congratulated particularly for his uncompromising stance toward the rogue state of Israel. I was listening to the lyrics of "Comfortably Numb" this morning and was struck by this part of the lyrics:

Just a little pinprick

There'll be no more, ah

But you may feel a little sick

Can you stand up?

I do believe it's working, good

That'll keep you going through the show

Come on it's time to go

So reminiscent of the Fauci Ouchie propaganda that inspires despair for the fate of the human race.

The following screenshot of a July 27th 2021 tweet gives some idea of the mind-numbing stupidity that is rampant at the moment:

Sometimes you think there is hope for humanity and then you come across a tweet like that and you think ... nah! What can you say to that? There's no clever riposte, just consternation.

It's been more than two weeks since I posted to this blog. It's not because of a lack of material to write about. It's just sometimes too depressing to write about. I find I overdose on bad news and have to withdraw to regather my strength. I started watching a video on Odysee in which a certain Professor Devi Sridhar airs her views on giving the Covid-19 vaccines to children. Unfortunately, the Hugo Talks video was unwatchable due to slow data transfer speeds but I tracked down the good Professor's video appearance here on YouTube (interestingly comments have been turned off):

It's a nauseatingly dishonest video but Professor Devi Sridhar is an interesting example of someone who is playing the game and reaping the benefits. This effusive introduction to an interview with her gives some idea of her profile in the world of BIG MEDICINE:

Eric J. Topol, MD: Hello. This is Eric Topol on Medscape, and with me is my co-host Abraham Verghese. This is a really special edition of our podcast, Medicine and the Machine, because we have a phenom here, truly: Professor Devi Sridhar, the professor of Global Health at the University of Edinburgh, who has been a guiding light for the pandemic not only in Scotland or the UK, but for the world. It's actually kind of amazing given her background, her age, and everything else. Devi, welcome.

Devi Sridhar, MPhil, DPhil: Thank you, and your introduction is too kind. We're all just trying to do our best through this crisis.

Topol: Well, I want to just reinforce that my introduction is actually very modest relative to the things that you've been able to accomplish in your young career. There was a great October Lancet profile, which in a way was the beginning of how I got to know you. In it, Professor [Larry] Gostin at Georgetown said, "Devi is among the most inspirational and impactful global health leaders in the world ... All of Devi's work is guided by the core values of achieving a healthier and safer world with equity and justice."

That's pretty nice, Devi, really.

Sridhar: You're going to make me blush; it's a bit overwhelming. Larry's always too kind in his praise and in his words.

Topol: Well, it's wonderful. It's richly deserved. Let's start with a little bit of your background: the youngest Rhodes scholar in history, starting at age 18, having already finished college — that seems kind of early.

Sridhar: Well, that's just how my life worked out. I think everyone has different experiences that shape their life. I never set out to be the youngest or to make life go faster; I just had good mentors and was always looking at what I wanted to do next. Yeah, it's been a journey, but now I'm finally getting a bit on the other side. Students now look at me and see me as old, so that's been a change.

Topol: Oh, hardly. What's amazing is, here you were, growing up in Miami, and you went to Oxford for the Rhodes Scholarship and you've never come back. We lost you.

Yes, "Devi is among the most inspirational and impactful global health leaders in the world" but some of the comments to the Odysee video are less than positive:

• She’s an evil fucking witch and if it were in my power I would issue a warrant for her immediate arrest and she would be summarily executed by hanging.
  
  
• Has anyone noticed how psychopathically evil most of the medical profession actually are? If you are looking for an industry where Satan would thrive, look no further than the petro-chemical medical industry.
  
  
• She presumably dropped an L off the end of her first name.

With people like Sridhar, one wonders whether they genuinely believe in what they are saying or whether they are simply psychopaths. It's hard to know. It seems more like a form of collective madness to me and certain individuals like Sridhar are chosen by their puppet masters to strut the world stage and be the mouthpieces for the official narrative. They have honorary club membership so to speak. Perhaps instinctively they know that if they stray from the script that they are reading, they will be yanked off the stage. Perhaps, they really do believe the script. Psychopaths of course are amoral enough to know what's really going on and yet still play the game.

The Wikipedia article about her shows that she is connected to all the big global players and even collaborated with Chelsea Clinton in the writing of a book:

While at the Blavatnik School of Government, Sridhar analysed the reach, effectiveness, and interdependency of supranational agencies like WHO, other UN health agencies, and organisations such as Gavi, The Vaccine Alliance and the World Bank. "The aim was to better understand the strengths and weaknesses of these organisations, and their comparative advantages and relevance to health ministries, especially in low-income and middle-income countries", she explained, in an interview with The Lancet. This work informed her 2017 book, co-authored with Chelsea Clinton, Governing Global Health: Who Runs the World and Why? In the book, Sridhar and Clinton argue that health governance is global and that global institutions are necessary to protect citizens and improve health outcomes on a broad scale. In addition, global health governance is changing, with increasing recognition of the need for intergovernmental cooperation to combat health problems. The book examined the work of four key organisations, the WHO; the World Bank; The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria; and GAVI. A key point made is the recent phenomenon of public-private partnerships in global health, a discussion of how these came about and some of the effects of such relationships. A review by Margaret K. Saunders in the journal Health Affairs noted that the book "provides an in-depth picture of the history of these global institutions and, more importantly, shows what that history means for the future of global health."

Here is the most unflattering screenshot that I could create for her with an appropriate caption:

The Evil Witch

Whether a psychopath or dupe, the fact that she's promoting the jab for children means that she is part of a chillingly sinister agenda and an accessory to murder. While administration of the vaccine was limited to adults, it could be argued that as adults there is a choice of whether to receive the jab or not. Administration to children however, is another matter altogether. As one of the comments in the Odysee video said:

This evil witch should be dangling from the end of a rope for trying to get children injected with the poison, utter scum.

These are strong words of course but indicative of the emotions that are being generated by this nefarious agenda. This video from Dr Vernon Coleman is a scathing condemnation of this witch.

The Influenza Vaccine and COVID-19

An interesting article on the Home Vaccine Education Network suggests that those who have had regular flu shots may be at risk of more severe reactions to the COVID-19 virus and it could also be a contributing factor in the onset of so-called "long COVID" that I dealt with in an earlier post. The article also some interesting background on the flu vaccine that I'll include below:

The Flu Shot:  Never Supported by Science

In 1972, Dr. John Anthony Morris reported his research findings on the influenza vaccine to his superiors at the FDA.  A distinguished doctor and government researcher, Dr. Morris had been comissioned 13 years earlier to scientifically justify the FDA's plans to widely expand the flu vaccination program.   To his expectant audience, however, his results were thoroughly disappointing.   Dr. Morris reported that the flu shot provided no measurable net benefit, in part because the injected product failed to stimulate antibody production in the lungs, thus allowing for viral replication in this sensitive area.   It was later realised that the lack of benefit also derives from the flu shot's ability to  increase vulnerability to viruses not covered in the shot, including unmatched strains of flu and different respiratory viruses dangerous in their own right.   Dr. Morris' finding of no net benefit of the influenza vaccine has been repeatedly verified with contemporary data, including a study by Simonsen et al. (2005)   that found that the large increase in flu vaccination of the elderly between 1980 and 2001 failed to decrease flu season mortality, and a study in Britain which found that the vast increase in flu shot uptake by those who had just turned 65 (vs. those who were just a bit younger) provided no decline in hospitalisations or deaths.

Corruption, Not Public Health 

Given the powerful results of   Dr. Morris' research, the flu vaccine's only perk could be to line the pockets of Big Pharma, and should have been regulated out of existence.  Unfortunately, the cozy relationship between the FDA, CDC, and the pharmaceutical industry, well documented today, is not a new phenomena.   Instead of reconsidering the vaccination program Dr. Morris' supervisors swiftly closed his laboratory and blocked publication of his results.    Breathing a sigh of relief that good science would not be placed in the way of good profits, Big Pharma continued pushing for expansion of the flu shot market.  Even if there wasn't a huge benefit in ordinary years, they argued, it was important to have manufacturing in place in order to churn out large quantities of vaccine quickly to save the world during the next serious pandemic (History of Vaccines, by Arthur Allen).

The Flu Shot Makes A Flu Pandemic - Worse?

Enter 2009, the first major flu pandemic to occur after  mass influenza vaccination had become a reality.  Big pharma did indeed heroically turn out millions of doses of pandemic influenza vaccine.     Unfortunately,  most of the doses did not become available to the general public until after the pandemic was nearly over.  In addition there was the inconvenient finding that individuals who had obediently taken the seasonal flu vaccine the year before were  more likely  to develop pandemic influenza illness that was medically attended.    Public health experts were shocked by these findings but kept their lips sealed as Big Pharma and their sponsored government agencies used  the public spotlight on the flu in 2009 as a springboard to push for an even larger flu vaccination program.   For the first time the flu vaccine was recommended for every American citizen, especially children, who by 2020 were the largest consumers of the shot despite lack of evidence of benefit and the mercury that was allowed to remain in the vaccine.

The Flu Shot Promotes Other Viruses

As alluded to above, 2009 was not an anomaly; the flu shot  routinely increases the rate of infection with other pathogens, negating any benefits of the shot.   While many of the studies of this phenomena worked with patients who had freely chosen whether or not to take the flu shot, (Dierig et al., 2014), one study met the gold standard of a blinded, randomised, placebo controlled trial (Cowling et al., 2012).  While it has been generally hypothesised that the mechanism of the increase in non-flu illnesses is viral interference - the observation that illness with one virus may block others  - it was found by Riken et al. (2018)  that the increase in non-flu infections starts in the first 14 days after receipt of the flu vaccine, before any immunity to the flu has developed.  This indicates that like the DTP vaccine and other inactivated pathogen vaccines, the vaccine engenders non-specific immune system changes which increase vulnerability to certain other infections.  Most of the studies on the flu vaccine have focused on children, or found statistically significant results only in children, however one study to find an affect in adults found that while the flu shot appeared to offer cross protection against certain pathogens for this population, the vulnerability to several other pathogens, including coronavirus, was specifically increased.   This study was with regards to "old" coronaviruses, not COVID-19.    The potential of the flu shot to fuel COVID-19, however, was firmly established, and, as we demonstrated above, can now clearly be seen in the COVID data.

The article presents a rather simplified bar graph to illustrate the impact that the level of flu vaccinations have on COVID mortality rates (see Figure 1):

Figure 1

In regards to these results, the article observes that:

Countries with high flu vaccine coverage, as of July 2020, suffered up to at least 20 times more COVID-19 fatalities/million as countries with low coverage. There appears to be a TIPPING POINT  that occurs at 45% -50% flu vaccine coverage. At vaccination coverage levels either below or above this point there is little correlation with COVID fatality, but the average fatality rate in countries with coverage over the tipping point is significantly higher.  This indicates that reaching a certain density of individuals made especially vulnerable to COVID  by flu vaccination results in connected clusters of vulnerability that span the system (that is, the percolation threshold is reached) which suddenly creates  sharply worse outcomes.   This could be explained if there is an exceptionally virulent variant or variants of COVID that spreads only among flu vaccinated individuals, because it has adapted to immune system shifts that are commonly triggered by the vaccine.  This variant could only become widespread when it can easily spread along chains of vaccinated individuals.

The most powerful correlation, however, is seen when we look at vaccination rates of children (again, 2018/2019 season).  For this data there appears to be a small tipping point around 63% and a much larger one  around 69%.  Every single state with a high COVID death rate, including New York, had a high flu vaccination rate of children.  Since child deaths nonetheless remain low, this must indicate that the children passed a more lethal infection on to their elders, indicating again that the primary role of flu vaccination is to cause individuals to pass more severe cases of COVID-19 to each other.  

The flu vaccinations have been aggressively pushed over the past decade, especially for the elderly. In May of 2019, I posted about topic (link). Of course, the propaganda push for COVID vaccinations has reached insane levels with all sorts of tricks being used to get people to step forward. Such tricks include:

• exaggerated or simply erroneous statistics as to what percentage of a population has received shots: any statistics relating to COVID-19 should be viewed with deep suspicion.
  
  
• fabricated shortage: if something is in short supply, it incites more interest because it becomes more desirable or there is a feeling that you may miss out if you don't seize on the first available opportunity
  
  
• fear-mongering and shaming: if you don't get the jab, your risk of dying from COVID-19 is much increased or so you would be led to believe. Alternatively, if you question the vaccine or the official narrative concerning the COVID-19 pandemic, then you have some kind of psychological flaw (and vague studies and doubtful polls will be adduced to confirm this).
  
  
• the carrot: if you have the jab, you'll be able to get back to work, meet with your friends and travel because the vaccination passport is coming and you'll be eligible for it.
  
  
• the stick: if you don't have the jab, you won't be able to get back to work, meet with your friends and travel because the vaccination passport is coming and you won't be eligible for it unless you get the jab

How the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna Vaccines Work

I've included here a good description of how the Pfizer/BioNTech and Moderna mRNA "vaccines" work. It's taken from an article in Signs of the Times (sott.net) on 30th January 2021.

The technique that was used to produce the Moderna vaccine is the same that was used producing the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine. A piece of messenger RNA (mRNA) encoding the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is inserted into a fat globule made of nanoparticles. Nanoparticles come in many shapes and forms and are made among others from fats, proteins, polymers, metals, silica and carbon. The term "nano" refers to the size of the particles and says nothing about the material used. For use in medicine, nanoparticles are available that are made of polymers, proteins and fats.

In the specific case of Pfizer/BioNTech's and Moderna's mRNA vaccines, the nanoparticle is a fat globule that serves as packaging of the mRNA. This allows the mRNA to pass the barrier of the cell membrane of the body's own cells. In this way, the mRNA is delivered to the cell where it can do its job. The nanoparticle is composed of fatty acids - phospholipids - which organise themselves in the form of a sphere so that the nanoparticles are soluble in water. These phospholipids form the outer layer demonstrated in the illustration below. Another fatty acid with a positive charge binds and protects the mRNA and these are visible as light blue spheres in the illustration. A third component of the fat globule is cholesterol, which stabilises the fat globule. A final component of these nanoparticles is the polyethylene glycol (PEG), which extends the half-life of the fat globule, making it less likely to disintegrate. Animal studies have actually shown that these nanoparticles have another important function as "packaging materials": they cause different types of immune system cells to travel to the injection site.

There are several types of polyethylene glycol, designated by a number such as PEG2000 or PEG3350. This number indicates the molecular weight of the PEG used. Polyethylene glycol PEG2000 is used in both the Pfizer/BioNTech and the Moderna vaccines. It is strongly suspected that this component has caused anaphylactic reactions in susceptible individuals. The risk of an anaphylactic reaction to vaccination with the mRNA vaccines is not known precisely, however it is estimated that for every 100,000 people that are vaccinated with the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine, 1 will have an anaphylactic reaction. This probability is about 10x higher than it would be for classical vaccines. Therefore, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) advise people who previously had an anaphylactic reaction to any of the components of these mRNA vaccines to not be allowed to get the vaccine. The problem, however, is that people often don't know, and in addition, at least one case of anaphylaxis was reported in a 32-year-old Alaskan woman who was not aware that she had any type of allergy.

We will now come to the mRNA in the vaccine. This is the "active" component of the vaccine. The purpose of a vaccine based on the mRNA technique is that instead of the body's own cells producing proteins, now the mRNA takes over this production of proteins for a period of time so that it is able to create the virus' spike protein, putting this on its own membrane, just as the virus has this spike protein on its membrane. The next question is which cells will take up this fat globule containing the mRNA and eventually express it. A study using rhesus monkeys shows that mainly antigen-presenting cells take up the nanoparticles and express the mRNA. This occurs at the injection site and in the lymph nodes into which the injection site drains. Antigen-presenting cells are normally immune system cells that cut foreign proteins into small pieces (peptides) and present them to the immune system on top of a small turret (MHC complex), enabling B cells and T cells to examine them in order to assess whether they are the body's own or foreign pieces of protein. If the B and T cells recognise these peptides as foreign to the body, the immune system is activated. To what extent other body cells take up the mRNA vaccine as well and possibly express the mRNA is not well known, but animal research with macaques indicates uptake and expression in muscle cells around the injection site.

Several promotional materials claim that the mRNA in Pfizer/BioNTech's vaccine is identical to the body's own mRNA, and could for that reason alone have no adverse effects. That is not entirely accurate. The mRNA in both vaccines is modified in various ways so that it is more stable and less likely to degrade. Moreover, the different codons - the sequence of three consecutive building blocks in the mRNA - are optimised to maximise the ability of cells to produce the spike protein. In this way, the spike protein is able to express for a longer duration in the body's own cells while producing more spike protein. The aim is to elicit a maximum immune response. As far as is known there have been no adverse effects of these mRNA modifications in humans, however, experience with these techniques in humans is still very limited.

It's important to understand how the vaccine is supposed to work but at the same time it's important to avoid getting caught up further in the whole Covid hype. It's always important to get back to basics and, at base, this is manufactured crisis. Take away the WHO pronouncements, the RT-PCR tests and the media-driven hysteria and 2020 would have been no different to 2019. The recent publicity given to Long-Covid and new mutant strains of the virus are clearly intended to maintain and even heighten the fear factor. The scamdemic is driven by fear.

The fear and the stresses of lockdowns, job losses, enforced isolation, business failures etc. are taking a psychological toll that is affecting our physical health. The mask wearing is physically damaging as well by promoting bacterial pneumonia and other illnesses. It is indeed a war on humanity:

There is no doubt that the vaccines will sicken recipients even further but there is no stopping the stampede to get vaccinated. To use Australia as an example, there are already over three million adults and at least one hundred thousand under-18s on antidepressants. These chemically lobotomised people have already surrendered control of their mental health to BIG PHARMA and so they will line up unquestioningly to receive their Covid vaccine. However, even those with a clear head, have succumbed to the relentless propaganda. 

Media Manufactured Madness

A student that I used to teach made a Facebook post in which she had drawn a fine sketch of Amanda Gorman with the comment: Just cause she's amazing ❤. I'd never heard of this person so I went to the fount of all wisdom, Wikipedia, to find out more about her. 

Amanda S. C. Gorman (born 1998) is an American poet and activist. Her work focuses on issues of oppression, feminism, race, and marginalisation, as well as the African diaspora. Gorman was the first person to be named National Youth Poet Laureate. She published the poetry book The One for Whom Food Is Not Enough in 2015. In 2021, she delivered her poem "The Hill We Climb" at the inauguration of U.S. President Joe Biden. Her poem threw her in to the national spotlight and got her praise from celebrities like Oprah Winfrey, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and Lady Gaga.

Oh dear. But wait it gets worse:

In 2020, Gorman presented "Earthrise", a poem focused on the climate crisis. Gorman read her poem "The Hill We Climb" at the inauguration of Joe Biden on January 20, 2021, and is the youngest poet to read at a presidential inauguration in United States history. Jill Biden recommended her for the inauguration. After January 6, 2021, Gorman amended her poem's wording to address the storming of the United States Capitol. During the week before the inauguration, she told Washington Post book critic Ron Charles, "My hope is that my poem will represent a moment of unity for our country" and "with my words, I'll be able to speak to a new chapter and era for our nation." Soon after Gorman's performance at the inauguration, her two upcoming books, the poetry collection "The Hill We Climb" and a project for youth, "Change Sings: A Children's Anthem", were at the top of Amazon's bestseller list. Both are scheduled to be released in September 2021. A book version of the poem "The Hill We Climb" is scheduled to be released on March 16, 2021, with a foreword by Oprah Winfrey, and each of Gorman's three upcoming books will have first printings of one million copies. IMG Models and its parent company WME signed Gorman for representation in fashion, beauty, and talent endorsements.

Clearly Amanda is doing well for herself but she is clearly being marketed as the acceptable face of black activism. Here is snap from The Guardian just adding emphasis to the fact that she is a media darling. I must confess that I couldn't bring myself to read the article nor even seek out her poem. Suffice to know that she "stole the inauguration show".

This same ex-student of mine has done a more recent portrait of Greta Thunberg with the comment:

Young people like Amanda Gorman and Greta Thunberg are media manufactured to represent the acceptable face of youth activism. The marketing campaign has been successful in capturing the admiration of the youth cohort who really believe these cartoon characters offer hope for the future. For septuagenarians like myself to criticise them on Facebook would provoke a furious backlash I'm sure. I've no doubt that many would defriend me or at least write me off as a deluded curmudgeon. 

It's only other young people who might persuade them to see beyond the marketing and propaganda. Yet, I don't hold out much hope of this happening. Another of my ex-students, living in Melbourne, was unquestioning in her support of the lockdowns there and the mainstream Covid-19 narrative. One can only read with dismay articles like the Covid Vaccine Arm from a relatively young doctor writing in Psychology Today. 

When I woke up on day eight after that first vaccine shot, my right upper arm was very itchy, and a red, round lesion about two inches in diameter was at the place where I had the shot.  As my underarm felt swollen, I put my left hand under my armpit and felt an enlarged lymph node.  I had no fever, muscle ache, no other systemic symptom or rash in any other part of my body.  I was puzzled.   

However, a friend of hers (Linda) had a similar experience and she continues:  

Linda had contacted the CDC describing her symptoms. The CDC told her that her symptoms “were unlikely to represent a long-term safety concern” and were “not considered a precaution or contraindication to vaccination with the second dose.”  The CDC recommended having the second injection in the other arm. This was very reassuring.

I can only shake my head at this childlike trust in such a thoroughly corrupt institution like the CDC. This doctor, Chris Gilbert, promotes herself as "an Integrative and Holistic Medicine physician" and yet there is no questioning of the vaccine. She got her first shot and is getting ready for her second.

Consternation arises from another article in Psychology Today titled:

Repression or the Zeigarnik Effect?

My vaccination against COVID-19 released energy trapped by repressed anxiety.

This week my husband and I rejoiced after our first injection of a COVID-19 vaccine. The Governor of New York had just expanded eligibility to include Group 1b. David had secured next-day hospital appointments for both of us. Less than 36 hours later, we were inoculated. I had not expected the intensity of my relief as we drove home.

I thought about the psychology that might explain both my joy and my surprise. What accounted for the emotional intensity following the sudden reality of getting vaccinated? With my background in public health and epidemiology as well as psychology, I had known a vaccine was coming and had become comfortable with the decision to get in line as soon as it was available. Nonetheless, warned of supply shortages and complications in delivery, I had expected at least three months of delay. We got lucky.

It's not worth even mentioning the Zeigarnik Effect that she references as the woman is clearly insane. The Governor of New York that she is referring to is none other than prime scumbag Andrew Cuomo. On paper, the woman who wrote this article is no fool:

Roni Beth Tower, Ph.D., is a retired clinical, research and academic psychologist. Tower earned her B.A. in religion at Barnard, Ph.D. from Yale, and did postdoctoral work in epidemiology and public health at Yale Medical School. She taught at Yale and Columbia University (Teachers College). She authored many journal articles and chapters and the memoir Miracle at Midlife: A Transatlantic Romance. She also writes regularly for BonjourParis.com. Link.

The mass media is awash with pro-vaccination articles like these and Psychology Today seems especially egregious. The magazine also features an article from a mathematician titled Why So Many Are Gambling with Contracting Covid-19 who writes:

All I ever do say is forget the mathematics and do as the nineteenth century naïve gambler did when the stakes were high: Use your instincts. Do you seriously believe the FDA would approve a vaccine for millions of Americans without overwhelming scientific evidence of safety?

As it turns out he has little to say mathematically and his essential message is to trust the FDA, an organisation that is as corrupt as the CDC. It's apparent that most people believe unquestioningly in the efficacy of vaccines and in the integrity of organisations overseeing public health like the FDA, CDC and WHO. That's to be expected of course given the control over mainstream media.

However, these people do not want alternative views to be voiced at all. Consider this petition initiated by a nurse in Melbourne:

It's not OK to question the official narrative. Tellingly, my Facebook friend who signed this petition also had this photo displayed on her timeline:

This is a variation on the old "trust the science". Scientists, at least those given a voice on mainstream media, are smarter than you so don't worry your pretty little head about it. The logo is ironic because it is inaccurate. As I wrote in a comment to my friend's post:

This representation of an atom with electrons whizzing around a nucleus as little balls like planets around a sun is quite inaccurate. It is not possible to determine the exact positions of the electrons due to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and to try to do so in a T-shirt logo is simply promoting bad science. I'd be embarrassed to wear this T-shirt because I'd be advertising my inability to grasp science.

This same friend posted a few days ago that Margaret Court was "a vile woman" because of her politically incorrect stance on sexual minorities. The LGBTQI lobby has been enormously successful in persuading theologians that failure to support its agenda represents "bad theology". The theology is what it is and Margaret Court for one has chosen to adhere to it as Christians have done for two thousand years. The theology has become unfashionable but is Margaret Court really "a vile woman" for not following the fashion?

Facebook posts are a fertile source of examples illustrating how so many have embraced this media manufactured madness.

Switch and Bait

Probably the most unsettling video that I've watched recently is the following that I came across in an article by Silviu "Silview" Costinescu on this site that began with the heading:

YES, THEY CAN VACCINATE US THROUGH NASAL TEST SWABS AND TARGET THE BRAIN

Her article, dated November 26th 2020, goes on to say:

I don’t know if they do it, because no independent researchers examine those swabs, but I have always pointed out that our overlords seem more concerned with testing than with vaccinating. Almost like the vaccines were the bait and tests were the switch. And now we also know they totally CAN do that.

She has a very persuasive graphic that she obtained from an article on this site dated November 5th 2020. See Figure 1.

Figure 1

The theragrippers referred to are shown in Figure 2:

Figure 2

These devices could burrow into the brain as well as gastrointestinal tract of course. Silview goes on to quote a much earlier medical article from December 13th 2008 titled:

NANOPARTICLES FOR NASAL VACCINATION

The abstract states:

The great interest in mucosal vaccine delivery arises from the fact that mucosal surfaces represent the major site of entry for many pathogens. Among other mucosal sites, nasal delivery is especially attractive for immunization, as the nasal epithelium is characterized by relatively high permeability, low enzymatic activity and by the presence of an important number of immunocompetent cells. In addition to these advantageous characteristics, the nasal route could offer simplified and more cost-effective protocols for vaccination with improved patient compliance. The use of nanocarriers provides a suitable way for the nasal delivery of antigenic molecules. Besides improved protection and facilitated transport of the antigen, nanoparticulate delivery systems could also provide more effective antigen recognition by immune cells. These represent key factors in the optimal processing and presentation of the antigen, and therefore in the subsequent development of a suitable immune response. In this sense, the design of optimized vaccine nanocarriers offers a promising way for nasal mucosal vaccination.

In the light of this article and the video above, this T-shirt logo is pretty accurate:

This is all very disturbing and makes perfect sense, explaining the obsession with testing. Let's finish with her earlier words:

Almost like the vaccines were the bait and tests were the switch.

Twitterverse and Vaccinations

 Here is a recent tweet by a famous actor whose name I'll withhold:

At the time I took the screenshot, the tweet had been retweeted 6292 retweets and had received 68000 times. I'm sure the actor is sincere in his gratitude but one is left wondering if there any hope for humanity. The tweet conjures up this fantasy world in which medical professionals work frantically on a vaccine to save humanity from the brink of extinction. Very much the stuff of movies. 

Of course, any actor who questioned the efficacy of a vaccine would be putting his or her career in jeopardy. For example, we have this story (4th December 2020) from Newsweek:

Black Panther star Letitia Wright today made headlines for posting an anti-vaccination video on Twitter. The actress faced swift and intense backlash from followers leading to calls for her role as Shuri in the Marvel superhero movie to be recast. Following the news of COVID-19 vaccinations being rolled out in the United Kingdom, the British actress, 27, posted a YouTube video that featured a presenter named Tomi Arayomi saying: "I don't understand vaccines medically, but I've always been a little bit of a skeptic of them." The Black Mirror star has since defended her stance in replies to Twitter users.

At least one actor has the guts to speak out. Robert De Niro is another actor that comes to mind in that respect. There are not many who speak out however, and understandably most say nothing. There can be no open debate about vaccines. The official viewpoint is that they are all good and the latest batch of emerging COVID vaccines is being especially lauded. Even if a vaccine maims and kills, the good it does always outweighs the bad. Except when it doesn't as in the case of Dengvaxia in the Philippines:

The president of Sanofi Pasteur Inc., along with a former health chief and now politician, Rep Janette Garin have all been indicted by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in the Philippines for reckless imprudence, resulting in homicide as a result of the deaths of children associated with the anti-dengue vaccine Dengvaxia. As a result of an ongoing investigation, government prosecutors found probable cause to file the charges against the named defendants as well as nine unnamed officials from the Department of Health, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine. Additional Sanofi Pasteur officials were indicted for violations of the Consumer Act of the Philippines. Source.

Such incidents are soon forgotten and, outside the Philippines, few would even know about it. Most probably, pharmaceutical companies responsible for any of the emerging COVID vaccines will be shielded from prosecution should anything go wrong when they come to market. Anyway the vaccinations are coming but it's interesting to note the variation in trust regarding vaccines amongst the different countries of the world. The Welcome Trust carried out a survey, the results of which are shown in Figure 1.

The Wellcome Trust, a U.K research charity, surveyed more than 140,000 people (ages 15 and up) in more than 140 countries about their views of science and major health challenges. And while eight in 10 people worldwide (79%) said that vaccinations are safe — and nine in 10 said their own children had been inoculated — higher-income pockets in Europe have less confidence in vaccines than lower-income countries in Africa.

Meanwhile there is this report in The Washington Post:

A wealthy Manhattan couple has emerged as significant financiers of the anti-vaccine movement, contributing more than $3 million in recent years to groups that stoke fears about immunizations online and at live events — including two forums this year at the epicenter of measles outbreaks in New York’s ultra-Orthodox Jewish community.

Bernard Selz and his wife Lisa are the couple referred to and Del Bigtree is the public face and chief executive of the Selz Foundation that the couple set up. I'd heard of Del Bigtree already from alternative news sources but hadn't realised the important role that he is playing in the anti-vaccination movement. He was co-producer of the film "Vaxxed".

Initiatives like these give a glimmer of hope and to my surprise I found that Michael Leunig has created some cartoons that have proved controversial. The mainstream media has done an excellent job of brainwashing the public so that a reflexive and hostile response is immediately elicited. No matter how much people may have liked his cartoons in the past, any questioning of the efficacy of vaccines meets with unalloyed and unthinking disapproval. The two tweets in Figure 2 are illustrative of the types of responses evoked:

Figure 2

The cartoon in question is quite mild in term of its opposition to vaccines. See Figure 3:

Figure 3

What's frustrating is that the opposition is based on a belief that what the medical mafia is telling them is unquestioningly correct. Anyone who doubts this is an anti-vaxxer and is to be ignored, ostracised or even punished. 

Mennonites and the New World Order

I recently watched a video about a group of Mennonites who found that their way of life in Belize was being increasingly encroached upon by modern civilisation and so they resettled in a remote area of the Amazon rain forest in Peru.

The text accompanying the video stated that: 

Like the Amish in the US, the Mennonite Christian community shuns the modern world. Most Mennonites live in secluded, self-sufficient colonies. We get a rare glimpse into the life of a devout and isolated community.

Unlike the majority of humanity, that group at least is free of the current pandemic madness and their withdrawal from the world now seems less extreme than the measures that are being implemented to deal with this manufactured crisis. A friend of mine in Australia is planning to visit an elderly relative in an aged care facility but he must first produce evidence of having had his flu shot before he can enter the premises. He has no problem with that because he dutifully gets his flu shot each year and probably all the other vaccinations that are recommended for my friend's age group (he is over 65). Figure 1 shows a list of the vaccinations that are recommended:

What vaccinations are recommended for older adults?

Figure 1: source

In some ways, I'm envious of my friend who is blissfully unaware of the deep and dark plotting that I perceive to be going on in the world. He likes to travel, both locally and internationally, and he'll be able to do so if travel restrictions ease because he will submit to whatever vaccinations are required. He knows nothing about what's in them or how the ingredients might impact his health and he doesn't care. It won't be so easy for me.

This takes me back to the Mennonites who of course are beyond the reach of vaccinations and other hazards of the modern world's "health" systems. There are a similar group in Java called the Badui. Here is a little bit about them (source):

Their traditional belief system, known as Sunda Wiwitan, is based on sacrifices made to their ancestor spirits. Throughout its development, Sunda Wiwitan has been influenced by Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam. Their core belief is in pikukuh, which means following an absolute set of determined traditions in their daily lives. The most important teaching of pikukuh is the concept of "no change whatsoever" or as little change as possible. A Baduy proverb states, "Lojor heunteu beunang dipotong, pendek heunteu beunang disambung," which means, "The long must not be cut short, the short must not be lengthened." 

The most important object of this belief system is Arca Domas, a secret location that the Baduy consider to be the most sacred place in the world. The Baduy visit Arca Domas to make sacrifices once a year in the month of Kalima according to the Baduy calendar. Only the puun as the highest chief and a few chosen members of the community may join the group that sacrifices at Arca Domas. At Arca Domas, one can find hollows in the rocks that store rain water. The Baduy believe that at the time of the annual sacrifices, if the rocks are full of clear water, this is a sign that there will be plentiful rain that year and the harvest will be good. If the rocks are dry or contain muddy water, this is a sign that the harvest will be poor.

The world is becoming an increasingly ugly and oppressive place. Maybe it always has been. In any case, there are sound reasons for withdrawing from it as the Mennonites and Badui have done and which other groups may attempt to do in the future. I wrote about this in an earlier post where I wrote:

The alternative is to grab your guitar and go "up the country". There's a chance that communes and communities may spring up that turn their back on technology and try to exist beyond the reach of Big Government, Big Pharma and Big Medicine.

Of course, the reach of Big Government, Big Pharma and Big Medicine only extends as far as the physical world and beyond that of course they have no jurisdiction. That is another way out for people who have become bankrupted or unemployed or in some other way traumatised by the plandemic.

Suicide rates have never been higher and they will only climb as this worldwide economic disaster, brought on by the plandemic lockdowns and disruptions to supply chains, broadens. The architects of the unfolding New World Order have no problem with this as population control by all means fair and foul is acceptable. For others, the stress brought on by the consequences of the plandemic will undermine their physical and psychological health by inclining them to eat more, drink more, exercise less and socialise less. The new restrictions placed on pubs and restaurants are a mighty disincentive to visiting them at all.

I visited a local mall myself today and it was a depressing experience. Most of the shops were closed. There were few people about but social distancing signage proliferated. There were more security personnel than patrons. Everyone was masked and, when I dropped my own mask under my chin as I wandered about inside the mall, a little man in uniform came trotting up to me to remind me to keep it covering my face. I complied. Why make a scene? There seem to be rules now gathering every aspect of social interaction. Figure 2 is just one example of the sort of madness that now prevails.

Medical Martial Law

Well the Puppet Masters seem to have developed the perfect tool for total subjugation of the masses. The tool of course is the COVID-19. Yes, the once-upon-a-time mildly annoying Corona Virus has mutated into a Killer Virus and governments around the world deem no measures too extreme to combat it. Whether the mutation came about naturally or was concocted in a laboratory somewhere is unknown. Whether it was unleashed deliberately or accidentally is also unknown. Whether it is a real mutated virus or a product of media hype is also open to debate.

In the end it doesn't really matter. Decades of Hollywood pandemic movies and numerous trial runs (swine flu, bird flu, Ebola, SARS) have conditioned the masses to not only acquiesce but also to cooperate in their enslavement. Even Hollywood is lending a hand. This was the heading of a recent article in The Atlantic:

The Strange Weight of Tom Hanks’s Coronavirus Diagnosis

The actor’s announcement that he and his wife, Rita Wilson,
tested positive brought the reality of the outbreak home for many Americans.

Tom Hanks is currently more than 7,000 miles away from Hollywood, preparing to film Baz Luhrmann’s upcoming Elvis Presley biopic in Australia. But last night’s news that he and his wife, Rita Wilson, tested positive for the coronavirus feels, in some ways, like the most seismic news the U.S. has received since the pandemic reached our shores. 

In an Instagram post, Hanks explained that he and Wilson had been diagnosed after exhibiting symptoms such as slight fevers and chills. “What to do next? The Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed,” he wrote. “We Hanks’ will be tested, observed, and isolated for as long as public health and safety requires. Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?”

 "The Medical Officials have protocols that must be followed". Yes indeed. The genius of this "tool" is that it pits everybody against everybody else. Anyone could be harbouring the virus. Fear and suspicion reign supreme. The infected can look the same as the uninfected. Even those who recover can relapse and infect others. The only way to know for sure is to have THE TEST. If you test positive, you forfeit any rights you may have thought you had. If you were in contact with someone who tested positive, you forfeit any rights you may have thought you had. You can be quarantined, taken away or simply disappeared. Not only individuals but whole communities, cities and countries are subject to the whims of BIG GOVERNMENT. Anything goes once Medical Martial Law is imposed.

In countries where citizens with grievances could once come together in protests (think Yellow Vests in France), that can be made illegal. Citizens can be put under house arrest. Any medical intervention that is deemed necessary can be implemented. In the future, that may include compulsory vaccinations. Not only would this be a massive boon to the coffers of BIG PHARMA as over seven billion people line up for their shots but it would also be the prefect TROJAN HORSE for the Puppet Masters. The citizens lining up for their jab will not know what it contains. The pharmaceutical companies do not have an obligation to disclose this information. Suffice to know that it's good for you and that it contains nothing harmful. 

This is the terrifying future where jabs can serve whatever agenda the Puppet Masters have decided upon. Population control is certainly on the list of agenda items and 500 million is a number that is posited. With Ingredient X added to the jab that could well be possible by rendering people infertile or by adding a virulent virus with a 90% mortality rate. The virus need not be instantly lethal. It might require exposure to 5G radiation to be activated. This might be fanciful but it's been suggested and there's no doubt that the Puppet Masters will have considered this. Let's say the Puppet Masters and those who are useful to them for administrative and law enforcement purposes comprise 1% of the total population of the world. If a reduction of the population to 500 million occurred and the 1% remained unscathed, then this minority would comprise about 15% of the population in the aftermath. 


The 85% would be herded into smart cities and subject to total surveillance by a benevolent and now overt Ruling Elite (the core of which might then comprise about 0.15% of the population). In the emergent cashless society, all financial transactions will be monitored as well as all online activity. Social credit scores will encourage people to spend their money in acceptable ways and to browse the Internet wisely. This may sound Orwellian but most people will line up for their jabs and those who survive the cull will be thankful that they did. They will consider themselves fortunate and cooperate fully in their enslavement. Of course there will be some who don't but they will have low social credit scores. As a consequence, there will be severe restriction imposed on their travel and accommodation. Befriending people with low social credit scores will negatively affect your own score and so these difficult characters will tend to be ostracised and relegated to enjoying the company of their own kind. Inevitably, they will be disappeared or suicided unless they conform.

Perhaps part of the success of COVID-19 is that the marketing department for the New World Order came up with a picture of it and it really caught on. I can't recall any of the earlier scary viruses having pictures associated with them. How to stop the psychopathocracy from succeeding in its plans to depopulate and subjugate the world is beyond me. The propaganda and dumbing down of the population has been too successful. Even those who are resistant to the propaganda and aware of what is going on are reluctant to air their opinions publicly for fear of damaging their careers. 

Staggering Exaggeration

Figure 1

The BBC it would seem knows no shame in pushing its pro-vaccination campaign. The graphic shown in Figure 1 was prominently displayed in a news article on its home page today, Friday 6th December 2019. A figure of 142,000 dead is bound to catch any reader's attention. Anticipating that there might be some skepticism regarding such an alarming figure, the article includes a How are numbers calculated section?

The technique is worth quoting:

Every single case of measles cannot be counted. In 2018, only 353,236 cases were officially recorded (out of the 7.8 million estimated). So scientists perform complex maths for each country. They take reported cases, the population size, deaths rates, the proportion of children vaccinated and more to eventually produce a global estimate. Dr Minal Patel, who performed the number-crunching, told the BBC: "We've had a general trajectory downwards for deaths, which is great. Everyone involved in vaccination programmes should be very proud. "But we've been stagnating in numbers of deaths for about the past seven years, and what's really concerning is from last year we've gone up, and it looks like we've gone backwards."

This verbiage can be boiled down to a simple "we made the numbers up". The article includes a video titled "Vaccine fears cost me my children" and another titled "It's a numbers game... if some people are not vaccinated, it can cause a big problem for us all". There are the inevitable quotes from experts working for our favourite Big-Pharma fronts like Gavi:

Dr Seth Berkley, chief executive of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, said: "It is a tragedy that the world is seeing a rapid increase in cases and deaths from a disease that is easily preventable with a vaccine.

The message is clear. If you are a parent living in a country with easy access to the Measles vaccine then it is irresponsible to not vaccinate your children against this killer disease. If you don't then the children can't go to school and child-care allowances are withheld until a certificate of compliance is produced. Down the track, your children may be taken from you and placed in foster care. Anything is possible as politicians respond to pressure from the Big Pharma and the Medical Mafia. As another "expert" says in the article:

Prof Larson said: "These numbers are staggering. Measles, the most contagious of all vaccine-preventable diseases, is the tip of the iceberg of other vaccine-preventable disease threats and should be a wake-up call."

Measles is indeed "the tip of the iceberg". It's not hard to imagine that adult booster vaccinations for Measles and other childhood diseases may be soon be mandatory. Flu vaccinations will be likewise mandatory if you want to enter your workplace or board an airplane. Once social credit scores are operative, those who can produce their certificates will earn merit points (the carrot) and, later, those who refuse to be vaccinated will attract demerit points (the stick).

What's astounding about this BBC article is that it's so blatantly propaganda. And it works. A colleague of mine from a school where I used to teach posted a photo of himself and his daughter on Instagram with the comment: "That's it. We're fighting back! K**** and I both got our flu shots!"

THE NEXT DAY

Samoa was mentioned in the earlier story and it's in the news again today. The arrest of a so-called anti-vaxxer represents an escalation in the measures that governments are willing to go to in order to vaccinate citizens:

Samoa arrests vaccination critic amid deadly measles crisis 

Edwin Tamasese was charged with incitement against a government order after he was detained on Thursday. The outbreak - which has killed at least 63 people, mostly young children, since October - is in part blamed on people spreading false information, claiming vaccinations are dangerous. Samoa declared a state of emergency, and made vaccinations compulsory. 

Mr Tamasese had spoken out against vaccines on Facebook, instead promoting using ineffective remedies such as papaya leaf extract to treat the deadly illness. Before his arrest, he had described the government's mass vaccination programme as "the greatest crime against our people", and falsely claimed vitamin C could cure the infected children.

As the Unicef representative to the Pacific Dr Sheldon Yett, told the BBC earlier this month: "people who are spreading lies and misinformation about vaccinations are killing children". This is likely to be the way forward, simply label anyway to questions a government's vaccination policies as a child killers and put them in jail.

So what has gone wrong in Samoa? This recent Forbes article sheds some light on the matter:

What’s happening on the island of Samoa is not fictional, though. It’s a real declared national crisis. Why is it happening? Could it be related to the fact that measles vaccination rates have been dropping precipitously in Samoa? According to World Health Organization (WHO) surveillance data, the percentage of infants in Samoa who received at least one dose of the measles vaccine fell from 90% in 2013 to just 31% in 2018. 

As Helen Petousis-Harris, PhD, a vaccinologist and senior lecturer at the University of Auckland, explained, the low vaccination rates have probably been due to mistrust in the Samoan heath system and vaccines, further fueled by anti-vaccination messages. For example, anti-vaccination messages have been claiming that the measles vaccine killed two infants last year in Samoa when the culprit was not the measles vaccine itself but Attracurium, a muscle relaxant that nurses accidentally added to the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine, according to Barbara Dreaver reporting for One News Pacific. Hmm, what could possibly be causing the measles outbreak?

Of course, other things have gone wrong in Samoa. This report about countries with high obesity rates among its citizens includes the following about Samoa:

43.4 percent of Samoans were found to be obese in a CNN survey, while 9 out of 10 adults are deemed to be overweight. Poor diet and reduced levels of physical activity have become major public health concerns in Samoa, where residents have a genetic predisposition to developing type 2 diabetes. Stroke and heart disease is also increasing across the country, an epidemic which has been linked to an increase in cheap, nutritionally lacking Western food imports. The Guardian reports Samoans view locally sourced, fresh ingredients as somehow socially inferior, leading to a preference for calorific, sugary drinks and tinned, processed goods. 

Whatever is going on, it can't be denied that Samoa has turned into a battle of wills against those who are pro and anti vaccinations. The former have all the usual blunt instruments to employ in the battle: supportive media, health professionals, compliant politicians, the legal system, journalists. Let's quote from the Forbes article again that was written by a certain Bruce Y. Lee. Clearly the "Y" was inserted to differentiate himself from that other Bruce Lee. He describes himself as "a writer, journalist, professor, systems modeler, computational and digital health expert, avocado-eater, and entrepreneur, not always in that order". The following quote shows Bruce's deep grasp of the issues:

Numerous scientific studies have shown over and over and over again that measles vaccination is by far the most effective way of protecting against the measles. 

As the 19th century showed, measles will rip through communities and kill people if their immune systems have been weakened by poor diet and they live in unhealthy, overcrowded living conditions. Samoa is being held up as an example of what happens when you don't vaccinate but there's more going on here. However, there'll be no public debate about it and instead extreme measures will be taken to stifle any form of debate.
