Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 70
Dec. 6th, 2022 01:58 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

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.

If video is more your thing, he has plenty of them, endlessly peddling his Pivot Protocol™. That's probably the trap that his cliff-hanger ending over at Malone's substack was designed to spring in "part two". Are we really to believe, with a fully canned system in his pocket, that he couldn't find the time to write a useful synopsis without resorting to used-car-salesmen's hooks, baits, and other forms of "stay tuned!!!" Ohhh... so that's where those exclamation points go.
His system is awfully food-combining and diet heavy, but the gods forbid that anyone should ever acknowledge the true diversity of health inputs that cause such a bewildering output of disease states. I guess it's just not as easy to sell the complexity of reality as it is to profiteer off of a one-size-fits-all, trademarked panacea.
"You somehow managed to evade the hard sell for the 'miracle' Co-vax panacea? Well, never fear. You can step right up and grab a hold of the anchor of my patented snake-oil panacea, instead! You can't possibly swim on your own, so latch onto my Pivot Protocol™ anchor... I mean life-preserver. It's safe and effective! All forms of payment accepted."

Date: 2022-12-07 08:06 pm (UTC)I guess it is hard to bring neglected issues forward no matter how one tries.
See, if you are not tall, dark, handsome (TDH) / svelte, blonde, pretty (SBP) then the majority of humanity is going to reject you on the basis of your looks, clothes, status, etc. and pour scorn on your novel idea as just some trick to get attention because you are too ugly to make any headway in life by looking good.
Whereas, if you *are* TDH/SBP, then some people will approve of you personally, and nod along with whatever you say because you fit the part. They will not absorb your ideas, nor grasp what you want to change; they will be fair-weather followers based on your looks.
But a significant sector of the crowd will decide you are an airhead and not smart enough to do real science or have genuine understanding of what you are talking about. They will reject your ideas because you are too pretty to be plausible in your field. Or, people like me, with a mile wide streak of junk-yard dog meanness, will sniff and growl, suspecting a con.
See, the default is to reject anything new no matter what and to assign a reason for the rejection after the fact.
Perhaps the momentum of the swinging pendulum of medical science/healing knowledge has reached its highest point and is about to swing back. I cannot tell.
But I do think that allopaths have deliberately chosen to be ignorant about the ecology of the human body. Whole-patient understanding has been defenstrated out of the Overton window. instead of making the intelligent choice to understand the complexities of glowing health. allopathy insists on a linear model of medicine which targets a single isolated symptom for silver-bullet treatment; this often causes domino effect cascades of follow-up problems.
Allopaths fail to spend the time and effort needed to engage in systems thinking and are woefully uneducated in the causal effects of ill health emanating from such diverse sources as gut biome, soil mineral deficiencies in even the best diets, family history, environmental influences, sleep patterns, mental effects, emotional affects, economic stresses and strains, and social milieu.
In short, allopathy no longer considers patient health: it merely aims to Battle Disease. This is a holdover of war-time medicine: patch up the troops and send them back to the front lines ASAP.
Allopaths are specifically trained in the military model of Command from the Top Down, instead of cross-systems diagnosis, joint care and consultation, as in India and other places where community medicine is normal practice.
Instead of healing, allopathy substitutes single-symptom pills, and expects its victim/pxs to tolerate any nasty side effects like a good soldier and get on with their low-paying, low-status jobs. Or to die in the service of True Science™ no matter how unpleasantly prolonged a death is designed for you by the experimental treatments.
Western/Industrial allopaths have also permitted the insurance and pharma Mobsters to impose their protection racket straight-jacket on the once sacred medical consultation process. The Efficient Market model of medicine is an assembly-line, belt-driven, timed-down-to- the-split-second stream of bodies to be fixed up like so many car parts whizzing by. Vitameatvegemin!
The Mob-Market Objective is to push more pills, order more tests, shove as much of the costs on to the government tax base as they can get away with and let insurers make 50 cents on every dollar spent for services and supplies that could be provided at cost for 3 cents on the dollar at most, if no profit motive were allowed. Mental health issues are shuffled off to one side, like a wounded officer on half-pay, and that is all insurance pays for it too: less than half of the cost.
Clearly a great deal has been lost by allowing war and money to be the models for health treatment. The analytical methods of science have been glorified, even deified, at the expense of the healing powers of empathic wisdom and whole-patient deep understanding.
This is what a curadero brings to the table. Traditional Chinese medicine also brings a long history of practical application of an extensive pharmacopeia based on whole plants, not lab-isolated, expensively processed single chemical agents packed into pills like a bandolier of silver bullets and a shoot-em-up attitude that treats all flesh as grass, coupled with a sneering and dismissive attitude towards all matters of the heart, soul, mind, and spirit.
Chronic, recurrent, mental, emotional and spiritual health issues require a cyclic, whole-circle-be-unbroken, circuit-riding preacher kind of care.
Some people will respond well to the TDH/SBP, I’m Healthy, Let’s Get You Healthy body type and moral attitude of healers.
Others may need the tattooed, bone-in-the-nose, git-out-of-my dreadlocks-you-puny-normie, living on the fringes scary-looking, evil-smelling, herb-hanging, chicken-keeping craft-crofter type of healer who can dig out the fears you want most to hide and cackle them away.
Government taxes will not pay for either of those, so we may also need a sizable contingent of small clinics and combination practices with keystone Respectable Allopaths who have open minds and who have shrugged off enough of their Commando Togs to hold routine consultations with all staff including LPNs, RNs, NPs, PAs, TCM’ers, clergy, midwives, social workers, and anyone else in on px care.
Despecialized General Care centers of this type will find it hard to stay afloat economically without the support of family subscriptions and church/lodge/workplace retainer fees; so people could advocate for govt policy to decouple health insurance from corporate controls, and to unfreeze citizens’ health care dollars by allowing tax free set-asides that can be paid to any firm we choose.
Just like home schooling, we should be able to decide where our income goes to pay for the kinds of health care we want and no longer be Managed for Our Own Good by Godlike Priestly Doctors. Licensing terms and Contract Law needs to be examined in each State to unlock the grip of rabid Credentialists and AMA-auteurs on who can legally practice medicine.
As for genuine Public Health Issues, citizens who wish to protect democratic principles of government might wish to assemble a cloud of mosquito-whining lobbyists, medical experts, and a phalanx of autistic document decoders to examine laws about Emergency Powers claimed by the State, and discuss the best ways to protect individuals against the encroaching fears of majority tyranny, or actual harm that might be done by minority disregard of the common weal. Perhaps also to devise appropriate disincentives for befoulment of health-supporting Commons such as water and air; and methods of safe and effective resistance for encroachments on citizens’ natural and civil rights such as Liberty, and Free Association.
