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.
Vaccine induced Myocarditis
Date: 2022-12-15 04:43 pm (UTC)"The research team autopsied 25 victims of different ages who were found dead at home within 28 days of vaccination. They looked at their heart tissue under the microscope to find out why these people died of cardiac rhythmic disruption when they had no apparent underlying heart disease."
They found that the victims immune system was attacking the heart.

"Nowadays medical herbalists mainly use nettle seed... as an anti-inflammatory and as a highly effective kidney trophorestorative. It slows down renal failure, evidenced by increased kidney glomerular function and lowered serum creatine levels."

How do you say "Holy shale" in Chinese?
Date: 2022-12-15 06:07 pm (UTC)Evidently the real reason China lifted zero covid last week was that Omicron was out of control and the failure of their grossly unpopular strategy was soon to become spectacularly obvious to the public. At some Beijing hospitals up to 80% of the staff are infected, and far from being sent off to internment, many are told to just keep working.
Last week official China experts assured us that China would not adopt a "Let 'er rip" strategy. The question perhaps should have been whether OMICRON will be adopting that strategy. And we will now see whether it can break a large nation's health care system ... and if so, whether it can bring down the government. Interesting times.

Re: NHS collapsing
Date: 2022-12-15 06:24 pm (UTC)But now I think I get the picture.
You've got everyone 65+ on Medicare, the US govt can choose to limit or refuse certain services on the basis that it isn't worth it at a certain age. They are already trying to do this with physical and occupational therapy.
Medicare Advantage plans are an HMO layered on top of Medicare. They take payments from Medicare and turn around and provide their own benefits, which may differ from Medicare.
People on Medicare Advantage plans are not necessarily affected by Medicare not covering something if the Medicare Advantage provider chooses to make the service available through its HMO network anyway. On the other hand, the Medicare Advantage plans may have restrictions as an HMO that regular Medicare does not.
Banging on Medicare Advantage plans now makes sense, if the goal is to ensure that older people are exposed to the restrictions of Medicare itself. And thereby unable to access care that would improve or prolong their lives.
More broadly, I've had a eureka moment lately, where so much of everything is making sense when you view it as a population reduction scheme.

Anyway, you‘ve got the best friends. Go hug them and have a beer with them!

Date: 2022-12-15 07:35 pm (UTC)I think the situation is less sh***y than a year ago, but masking-mania keeps on and keeps on...in spite the airlines complaining.

This is geared to a younger audience but I found the quiz and categories helpful for categorizing some of the traps that involve diving in so heavily to an online environment. Especially in terms of how forces are described as feeding on energy.
To go out on a limb, I imagine others like me have found themselves in the Minotaur camp
"The Minotaur feeds on drive through anger and paranoia rather than entertainment."
Bit of a tangent but I find it very hard to articulate how exactly the force of the internet affects myself and people in general and find tools like these can be helpful for increasing awareness of how attention and energy is being siphoned.

Date: 2022-12-15 07:40 pm (UTC)Here in Spanish Wokistan you can't be bare faced in a train, if you do it, you'll be fined yet. I don't see unmasked people in trains and buses, myself included.

Re: How do you say "Holy shale" in Chinese?
Date: 2022-12-15 08:45 pm (UTC)I would expect it to be similar to the big Omicron wave that ripped through the US last January. Maybe even - if their more traditional shots work at all or at least don't have negative efficacy - a bit less severe than ours. As in: almost everyone will get sick, but the death rate will be lower than a typical flu.
If the government fails, I would suspect it to be less a case of "you let us all die!" and more a matter of "you destroyed our lives for three years for *this*?"
