Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 75

ironicallyAs 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 uselessness 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.

Agree. The whole saline thing is a myth.

The elites believe in the vaccine myth of progress. And the nature of the vaccine rollout means that the idea that there was some type of organised conspiracy to give VIPs saline versions of the jab is frankly mad.

We know that President Biden probably had a jab injury after his booster shot. If there was some kind of secret VIP saline conspiracy he would be at the top of the list.

I know it is difficult for folks to realise but the elites genuinely think the jabs are safe.

Now, there was a underground fake vaccine certificate industry, and I'm sure quite a few African Americans with a long history of fearing vaccines got it and probably some medical personnel who felt compelled to get jabbed but it was rare.

Oh yeah, stunts like this happening with statins here in the UK will only help the signal obfuscation too:

'Landmark NHS move to let ANYONE ask for life-saving pills reignites decades-long row over their safety... but top heart doctors insist the benefits outweigh the scare stories'

You can bet your bottom dollar anyone who might be any kind of risk for cholesterol will be recommended them.

Seems there is also a huge variance in the response. Difficult to see the whole situation.

A Readership Survey

[personal profile] fredsmith11 2023-01-13 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Recently there was a strange article about exercise in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2022/dec/31/exercise-fitness-new-year-weightlifting-couch-to-5k

Strange in that it started off talking about someone who was vax injured - definitely a glitch in the Matrix.

Presumably someone got slapped around the head and the Guardian is now back to core globalist narrative with this article: "I was wrong’: how Covid conspiracies became a gateway to extreme views"

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/jan/11/we-walked-into-a-trap-anti-vaxxers-on-life-after-conspiracy-theories

"Some Covid deniers have regrets, but others have joined more extremist hate movements"

" . . . Covid-19 conspiracy theories have acted as a gateway drug to other, more extreme views."

So can we have a survey of contributors on here. Put your hand up if:

- you have joined an extremist hate movement
- your conspiracy theories have lead you to more extreme views e.g. Joe Biden is not the bestest POTUS ever
- you have regrets at the absence of stamps on your booster bingo card

Nb. Vale old Joe who's being set up to carry the can for the emerging disaster in Ukraine. Loved his press conference where he talked about his Corvette being in the same garage as the Top Secret docs.

Yet another athlete who died during sleep or on the field. There seems to be quite a surge of these of late, no?

https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/20-year-old-colorado-college-tennis-player-dies-his-sleep

I keep thinking these stories, collectively, will get some legs and the public will finally wake up. But in my blue, blue, blue neck of the woods, the narrative is still welded in place. About the only chink in the narrative armor I can discern is that the vax devotees are mostly not lining up for the boosters.

If I were a demon, I'd be pretty pleased with myself.

Yehiel's Descent Into the Hell of Vaxx Injury

[personal profile] transcriberb 2023-01-13 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
From: "The Testimonies Project: Yehiel's Testimony"
https://www.vaxtestimonies.org/en/video/yehiel/
"Experiencing severe neurological injury that includes tinnitus, hearing loss, weakening of the right hand and foot, severe headaches, spasms, muscle jumps, impaired language and memory."
April 26, 2022

TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE:
This testimony was in Hebrew; the transcription is of the English translation that appears on the video, to which I added some punctuation in order to make it easier to follow.

TRANSCRIPT - EXCERPT

YEHIEL: My name is Yehiel, I am 48. When all the vaccination issue rose, my wife got vaccinated first. I was hesitating because I already have a few background issues. I have autoimmune disease—I suffer from Crohn's. I waited to see how it affects other people. My dad, mom, sister, everybody got vaccinated. One month, two months had passed, and I saw everyone is fine. I said—let's get it done. I want to go to the gym. I want to be able to enter everywhere. I'm also self-employed working with different brands I need to visit. All of them demanded a green pass. I will get the shot, my body is strong and I can overcome anything.

I got the first shot. Seven days later I put my head on the pillow (at nighttime) I heard a very strong hiss inside my head for a few seconds, then it stopped. I didn't do anything, only was attentive to that. The next morning I got to the office. While working I felt a sharp pain inside my head (left side), so sharp I had to lay down. During the next two days I had to lay down I couldn't stand and I also had weakness in my brain. I was sure that was a stroke. I went to see a neurologist. I made an urgent appointment. He checked my reflexes and pupils. He said everything looks fine. If things get worse— turn to ER.

I went on going, not suspecting anything. I asked him if this could be a result of the vaccine. He said no way, that's nonsense. Everything is fine. How many children do you have? All is well.

And then three weeks had passed... The second shot... I wasn't scared, I didn't think it was related... I took the second shot and about 7 days after the second shot I heard, as if from a distance, a hiss in my ear. I thought— this is impossible, maybe my ear is dirty. I tried to shake my ear, to activate my jaws as if chewing bubble-gum. I thought— what could this be? I will wait for it to pass.

Quite rapidly, within a day or two, the hiss became very loud. I could not ignore it. I could hardly hear what people said to me because it was very disturbing. Later I found out that's what's called Tinnitus.

A few days later I went to see an ENT doctor. Her diagnosis was a problem in the joints of my jaws and recommended going to a dentist. The dentist and his colleague (an oral expert) examined me and said the mouth is healthy. Went back to the ENT doctor and said I think my hearing got poorer. She sent me to a hearing test. Although a light to mediocre (deterioration) but in significant frequencies, I felt I had a deterioration of my hearing.

A week after the tinnitus started in my left ear I hearing the hissing in my right ear. That was around Passover, we went on holiday with the kids. While sitting in the car the noise the kids made was impossible for me to bear. I couldn't understand.. It was as if someone took off my natural protection that seems to be in the ears against loud noises. As if the adjustment the brain does to regulate the outside noise does not exist. If a kid shouts, it gets right into my brain. It is pain I can't define. It is only later I understood this is called noise sensitivity— Hyperacusis. Hyperacusis—noise sensitivity. I went to the ENT doctor, I did a comprehensive hearing test. The final diagnosis was a significant damage to the ears.

6 months after the second shot my ears are hissing and it gets louder and louder. When I am exposed to loud noise, if I attend an event or after a weekend with the kids I get the the point where I can't... I almost get crazy. I manage to somehow absorb this and stay steady. Nobody... whenever I complain... whoever, friends... Nobody got hurt. Could it be your imagination? Maybe you are stressed from COVID or the vaccine? I don't think we get the same vaccine. People were not damaged. Me...

After the tinnitus appeared I felt pressure around my ears and in addition my neck felt rigid. When I look back, from my first shot until today approximately 6 months have passed, all that time I suffer pain inside my head 24/7. It started from my neck and spread to the head such pain that I don't know where to out myself... And this is accompanied by confusion, loss of memory, difficulty in concentration. While talking to someone I might not recall what the conversation is about. I am so scared to lose the focus in a conversation that if I am asked an extra question I prefer to ignore it. Or if someone comes suddenly... This was my survival level during those months. And my brain is my primary tool when I work. I am self-employed in the field of software.

positive for COVID

I am unfoxed, and this is the first time since we have had home tests for it that I have COVID, but I am on vacation, staying with family, so I dont have my stuff I would normally take ( Buhner recomendations)or a car out here. Before we all were sick, we made a last run to a store knowing it was coming and I picked up a couple minor things, let me know if there is soemthing else I would be likely to find that I could identify in case it gets worse, so far it is fever and headcold stuff and cough

I am taking a host defense cordyceps/reiki capsules( 500mg of each) 3x a day; a garden of Life quercetin immune, (90mg vt C, 60mcg Vt D3, 11mg zinc, 570mg quercitin) twice a day; a gram vit C once a day; Japenese knotweed 400mg capsule 3x a day. And it turns out one of the herbal teas in the house has siberian ginsing, ginger etc... and I picked up some baby asprin, the on;y asprin available at the store. I had bioplasma with me, so just remembered today to take more f that than my usual daily morning dose.

It is possible since I am the last to come down with it in the hosue that at some point someone can do a store pickup for me if I get worse and want something normally avaiable at a health food store

Some news I was happy to see-- not surprised by the ruling, just at how long it took:

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/bb-appeals-court-refuses-reinstate-vaccine-mandate-states/

Appeals Court Rules Against Vaccine Mandate in 3 States

Associated Press reported:

An appeals court has affirmed a ban in three states on enforcing a federal vaccine mandate for workers who contract with the federal government.
A panel of the Sixth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals in Cincinnati on Thursday affirmed a lower court’s ruling that said the mandate was unconstitutional.
President Joe Biden’s administration is not enforcing the rule while legal battles play out around the country.

A federal judge in Louisville, Kentucky, blocked the Biden rule in November 2021 for that state and two others: Tennessee and Ohio. The mandate requires workers contracting with the federal government to wear face masks and be vaccinated for COVID-19.

The Fifth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals issued a similar ruling in December for Indiana, Louisiana and Mississippi.

Pence: Discharged Military Members Should Be Reinstated, Get Back Pay Over Vaccine Mandates
The Hill reported:

Former Vice President Mike Pence in an exclusive interview called on the Biden administration to reinstate and provide back pay to members of the military who were discharged for refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine now that the mandate for the shot has been lifted.

Pence, in a Wednesday interview with The Hill, called it “unconscionable” that some troops were put in a position to decide between serving their country and complying with the vaccine mandate, which was instituted in August 2021. The mandate was rescinded through a bipartisan defense policy bill signed into law late last year.

In a memo announcing the mandate had been dropped, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said those who were discharged can petition for a change in the characterization of their discharge in personnel records.

About the apparent distortion of Attali's article in the quotes given on the Armstrong site, you are absolutely right. I'll post my comment anyway, though you beat me to it:

The Salomon book is for real, though hard to find (second-hand prices start above $1500), and it does contain an interview with Attali. A Spanish translation is available for $125. The English translation (Future Life), though I don’t see it on bookfinder.com, is in the Internet Archive.

From looking at it there, I believe the most startling quotes provided above are not authentic. Some of the sentences taken from Armstrong’s site are in the book, but the ones which would make today’s readers think of Covid and the mRNA vaccines are *not* present in the text of the interview. I think this one of those vaticinia ex eventu that turn up readily on the Internet. But I can’t be sure without checking the original French — conceivably, an editor “toned down” the translation.

The Attali interview — minus what I judge to be Covid-inspired embellishments — is worth reading. He values freedom, and says a lot about how the medical profession gets corrupted. To make clear where his sympathies and values lie, he says, “I believe the world we are building will be so frightful that it will mean the death of humankind. So we have to be prepared to resist it […] the best way to do so is to understand and engage in the battle in order to avoid the worst . . .”

Well, my wife called it. I was really impressed with Premier Smith's support of the unvaxxed, but she's backing away from all that apparently. My wife told me, all politicians are the same and none of them can be trusted.

Being in Canada right now feels very... risky for unvaxxed folks. I get the sense that something bad (policy wise) is coming. Yikes.

A Toronto Star reporter went after 'anti-vaxxers' like a junkyard dog in his furor and fury over the CTV reporter having a 'medical incident' on air.

He didn't examine medical issues related to the vaxx. He went after anti-vaxxers as if they were responsible for the 'medical incident.'

I'm starting to think this sub-grouping of the Professional Managerial Class will blame the un-vaxxed for their health woes rather than doubt their
perfect shiny altruistic perfections.

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/press-release/breaking-chd-defeats-ny-state-healthcare-workers-covid-mandate

Press Release

For Immediate Release

In a groundbreaking decision filed today, NY State (NYS) Supreme Court Judge Gerard Neri held that the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for healthcare workers is now “null, void, and of no effect.” The court held that the NYS Dept. of Health lacked the authority to impose such a mandate as this power is reserved to the state legislature. Furthermore, the court found that the mandate was “arbitrary and capricious” as COVID-19 vaccines do not stop transmission, vitiating any rational basis for a mandate.

Children’s Health Defense (CHD) financed this lawsuit on behalf of Medical Professionals for Informed Consent and several individual healthcare workers. Sujata Gibson, lead attorney, said, “This is a huge win for New York healthcare workers, who have been deprived of their livelihoods for more than a year. This is also a huge win for all New Yorkers, who are facing dangerous and unprecedented healthcare worker shortages throughout New York State.”

CHD President Mary Holland stated, “We are thrilled by this critical win against a COVID vaccine mandate, correctly finding that any such mandate at this stage, given current knowledge is arbitrary. We hope that this decision will continue the trend towards lifting these dangerous and unwarranted vaccine mandates throughout the country.”

We are off to a great start in 2023.

Looks like the bloom’s off Alberta’s ‘wild rose’. Smith had better back up her words with credible actions pretty soon, or she’s toast. The kind of people who voted for her in droves expect her to behave with the same integrity that they live by (tall order for a politician, I know…). It’s one thing to refuse to toe the federal government’s lines regarding making every civilian-owned long gun in the country illegal and permitting cadres of environmental enforcers doing God-knows-what on privately owned farmland and rural ditches; and quite another to address what she proclaimed to be the worst form of discrimination in her lifetime (that is, discrimination against the unfoxed).

Personally, I respect Chris Sky’s fearlessness in ‘calling them like he sees them’, but I’ve always got a weird vibe from the guy and usually take whatever he says with a grain of salt until/unless I get independent confirmation of his claims. But the stuff he says about Smith I can take 'unsalted'.
