Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 66

[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.

Re: Local Recorders

stcath, I'd absolutely encourage you to start recording local history yourself and get others involved too. It is enormously enriching for the community.

There is a long tradition of keeping records in Britain, probably going further back than the Venerable Bede's 'Ecclesiastical History of the English People', finished around the year 731. Local history societies are very popular here I have several books of stories and anecdote collections from various periods and they all provide fascinating pictures of what was happening at the time. There is one in particular I return to - 'The Living Village, a picture of rural life drawn from village scrap books' by Paul Jennings. It was first published in 1968 and shows the sometimes dramatic change of country life at the end of the 1960s.

When it was demolished, another, much smaller, book of memories was made about the primary school where my grandfather was headmaster for many years. In that, we found lovely stories about him that he'd never told us, but now the family have a record of them. In one, because of his dislike of corporal punishment, if he found two boys fighting he'd bring them into the playground, put adult boxing gloves on them and then summon the school to watch them try and slug it out. Of course, being small boys, they couldn't and everyone ended up laughing, including the fighting boys.
