Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 65

[ecosophia]

As we proceed through the second year of these open posts, it's pretty clear that the official narrative is cracking as the toll of deaths and injuries from the Covid vaccines rises steadily and the vaccines themselves demonstrate their total uselesness at preventing Covid infection or transmission. It's still important to keep watch over the mis-, mal- and nonfeasance of our self-proclaimed health gruppenfuehrers, and the disastrous results of the Covid mania, but I think it's also time to begin thinking about what might be possible as the existing medical industry reels under the impact of its own self-inflicted injuries. 

So it's time for another open post. 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. Also, please don't drag in current quarrels about sex, race, religious, etc. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

Probably good old fashioned Christianity, at least in the US.

In the sense that most people want to live in a world where truth and salvation is the purview of a priestly caste and they can therefore have answers to difficult questions without too much critical thought, we still live in a very religious world. And as the religion of Science/Progress implodes and its priests are revealed to be liars and false prophets, a great many people will likely return to Christianity, which has the benefit of already existing in our communities with churches who welcome newcomers with open arms.

All priestly religions, where truth exists within a priesthood or a holy book, feel threatened by the "do your own research" approach of occultism, in which *individuals* are encouraged to understand the underlying nature of reality without intermediation by priests or scriptures.

Sadly, I suspect that many of the folks who presently adore St. Fauci and want to kill the evil antivaxxers are more likely to become Christians who want to kill the evil witches than they are to "wake up" and think more deeply about the world and the nature of reality.

I think this is a very important point - and one that doesn‘t make me very optimistic about the near future, alas.

Even if a majority of people should „wake up“ to everything that has been going on in the past two to three years, most of them would only do so because they are now told by their favourite authorities that things haven‘t been ok.

And while quite a few of them would be mad about having been mistreated, betrayed, etc, only very few would own up to their own responsibility and consider that they have let themselves be mistreated, betrayed, … - let alone consider how they themselves would have to change so that this won‘t happen again.

So we‘d basically be back to square one, with almost the same amount of people being led around by the same (or slightly different) authorities. Plus, of course, the potential witch hunts, because somebody has to be at fault, right? ;-(

I don't know, I don't know.

There seems to be a hard core of people who CANNOT deviate from the narrative, no matter what happens to them. (Exhibit A: four-quacksinated person who gets nasty covid, along with their quacksinated family.)

And then a group of people who are more sensible: (Exhibit B - had to put my head on the tracks and beg my youngest child not to get quacksinated. Medical issues and not subject to any mandate, so no reason to quacksinate, but still determined. Put him off until now by insisting we get proper medical advice, etc. He now says he's "not really interested" in those shots any more. So I have apparently achieved one thing in my life.) (Exhibit C: other family members watching the four-quacksinated ones be so terribly ill with THE ACTUAL THING they're eight-times-quacksinated against - "Well these shots obviously don't work at all." "I was so sick after my second dose I'm never, never getting any more", etc.)

So some people can wake up, or at least move on, but it really seems some just can't. And I don't know why. It's very, very troubling.

I've pondered this. There are some theories about why some people literally cannot wake up, most of which I will not get into out of respect to JMG. The one theory I have is just that it's just not in the cards for them this lifetime. Perhaps they will in their next incarnation. Perhaps not. I just accept that many people are dead asleep here, and I no longer worry about it. It is perplexing though.

You HAVE achieved a great thing in your life! Better than a #1 record or exhibition at MOMA.
