Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 24

[ecosophia]

The semi-open posts  I've hosted here on the Covid-19 narrative, the inadequately tested experimental drugs for it, and the whole cascading mess surrounding them have continued to field a very high number of comments, so I'm opening yet another space for discussion. The rules are the same as before: 

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here. 
 
3. If you plan on using rent-a-troll derailing or disruption tactics, please go away. I'm quite familiar with the standard tactics used by troll farms to disrupt online forums, and am ready, willing, and able -- and in fact quite eager -- to ban people permanently for engaging in them here. Oh, and I also lurk on other Covid-19 vaccine skeptic blogs, so I'm likely to notice when the same posts are showing up on more than one venue. 

4. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, as more and more vaccinated people call in sick with the disease the vaccine was supposed to keep them from getting, and the euphemism "died suddenly" sounds like a repeated drumbeat in the media, the floor is open for discussion.

Re: praying about all this

[(Anonymous)]

I have found Isis to be an extraordinary healer through all of this. She has an incredible ability to kindle new life and justice out of the shredded remnants of leaders, lands, lovers, and lives that have become parched and depleted from their habitual complacency with finding themselves in too easy a perfect fit — from tilling the same row to death. The possibility of being flooded with rejuvenating energy in the midst of a sapped and disintegrating culture, suffocating in its own decadent comforts, is exactly the kind of healing I've been praying for.

For those who don’t know the story, Isis’ husband Osiris, the ruler of Egypt, was murdered by their jealous brother Set who had built a luxurious sarcophagus, which he offered to any member of the court who could fit in it perfectly. Only Osiris could, but it was a trap. Set sealed him in the sarcophagus and threw it into the Nile, where Osiris suffocated in the luxury he had found so alluring. Isis searched endlessly until she found Osiris’ body, which an enraged Set then tore into pieces and scattered far and wide. Isis again searched until she had found all the missing pieces of her lost love. Then, calling upon Anubis and Nephthys for help, Isis used her healing gifts to bring Osiris back to life for one night, during which they conceived Horus, creating new life out of death. After vanquishing Set’s lies and chaos, Horus went on to rule with wisdom and balance over a dawning new age.

I have no idea what the best possible outcome for all the dilemmas we’re currently facing would be. But I’m pretty sure that Isis knows and can help with at least a few of them. There are many missing pieces yet to be discovered before something healthy and vibrant can be conceived out of all this death panic. There are many lies and chaos that need to be vanquished before a new age can dawn.

May we all find ourselves so blessed as to retrieve the missing pieces of our lost love, hope, joy, and faith when this inundation of madness finally crests and retreats back between the banks that usually keep it contained. May Isis heal our dismembered souls.
