Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 102

[ecosophia]

As we near the end of 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, religions, etc. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

Dear Mr Greer

One of the things that alerted me to the danger of the vaccines was your “Into the Unknow region” post in December 2020 where you warned that the vaccines had only be tested for a short time and could have unknown side effects that might not become apparent for a long time. That really rang my alarm bell and I made the decision there and then to wait before I made a decision about taking the vaccines. So I want to thank you for that.

I had become very skeptical of the whole lock down tyranny and the way that early treatments like ivermectin and vitamin D where being suppressed. I also have the weakness of being a procrastinator and will always put off what does not need to be done. There were a number of occasions when I started thinking of taking the vaccines in spring 2021, but I decided to leave the decision for another month or so, because I was so lazy. This was a great example of where a weakness becomes a profound strength. So it is possible that I might not have taken the vaccine if I hadn’t read your warning. However, your warning turned that possibility into a certainty.

I was also lucky to be living in England. I am so shocked at the pressure people came under to take the jab in Canada and America. A couple of friends did try some gentle persuasion back in May 2021, but apart from that everyone I knew at work supported my right to bodily autonomy and agreed that I had the right not to take the vaccine and they were all liberals and lefties. In the autumn of 2021 the government did require care workers to take the vaccine and this was later extended to the NHS. Fortunately, they changed their mind when it came to the NHS in the spring of the following year. Thanks to our employment laws other employer were not allowed to mandate vaccines. Things were bad enough in England, but the attitude in this country was like the climate, it did not go to the extremes that happened in Canada, Australia and parts of the US.

So thank you for your warning.

Yours sincerely
