Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 67

[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.

I'm seeing the same thing, lots of older ladies (& gents) all in for social distancing and masking.

On the other hand, I'm a citizen old enough to qualify for the "senior discount," and I think this covid show is all hippo crap.

Surely I am not the only one.

Thank you all, young and old, for being here. Thank you, JMG. I profoundly, profoundly thank you.

I saw a cartoon the other day, comics actually I guess, and the old boomer is telling his daughter she really should vax her child because 'What about my protection?'

And I thought, 'What a generation I belong to. They (we) listened to a few Beach Boy records and suddenly they (we) think we are *Paris in the 1920s.* 'Man am I cutting edge...whatever would the world do without me...INJECT THAT CHILD.'

That is what I call "dirtyelmoism."

If our host will indulge me, I once again post the link to Dr. Flurm Googlybean's masterpiece of comedic insight:

Oh Man, Oh Man, Oh Man, this says it and this is gruelling. What have we come to.

I remember Country Joe and the Fish has a Vietnam War song with the lines, 'Be the first one on your block,
to have your boy come home in a box.'

Man I could weep.
