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.

ADE, The Next Generation

[mr_nobody1967]

Geert Vanden Bossche is saying that his ADE prediction is on the verge of coming true, just later than he originally predicted. What are the forumistas thoughts on this? I think that if JMG's "Demon Hypothesis" is true, those who made pacts with demons in the wake of Trump's election victory would be having their bill come due about now, and ADE happening now may perhaps be the mechanism of manifestation.

Here are all of the requests for prayer that have recently appeared across the Ecosophia community, as well as in the comments of the prayer list posts. Please feel free to add any or all of the requests to your own prayers.

If I missed anybody, or if you would like to add a prayer request for yourself or anyone who has given you consent (or for whom a relevant person holds power of consent) to the list, please feel free to leave a comment below or in the comment section of the page linked at the start of this comment.

This week I would like to bring special attention to the following prayer requests.

Steve T's brother Matt is currently in the hospital after a sudden violent seizure, and his daughter is having extreme panic attacks; they were both in a terrible car accident last fall. Steve asks for prayers for Matt's recovery of health; for the emotional and psychological well-being of the rest of the family, including his wife Megan, his daughter Diana, and his young son Jake; and for the lifting of any spiritual harm afflicting the family.

Oilman2 has survived cancer and is learning to adjust to a rebuilt colon and learning how to walk again; for healing energies, for robust fitness in his new physical circumstances, and for him to remain cancer free.

Tamanous's friend's brother David got in a terrible motorcycle accident and has been diagnosed as a quadriplegic given the resultant spinal damage; for healing and the positive outcomes of upcoming surgeries and rehabilitation, specifically towards him being able to walk and live a normal life once more.

Lp9's request on behalf of their hometown, East Palestine Ohio, for the safety and welfare of their people and all living beings in the area. Lp9 gives updates here and most recently here, and says "things are a bit... murky", and the reasonable possibility seems to exist that this is an environmental disaster on par with the worst America has ever seen. At any rate, it is clearly having a devastating impact on the local area, and prayers are still warranted.

* * *

Guidelines for how long prayer requests stay on the list, how to word requests, how to be added to the weekly email list, how to improve the chances of your prayer being answered, and several other common questions and issues, are now to be found at the Ecosophia Prayer List FAQ.

If there are any among you who might wish to join me in a bit of astrological timing, I pray each week for the health of all those with health problems on the list on the astrological hour of the Sun on Sundays, bearing in mind the Sun's rulerships of heart, brain, and vital energies. If this appeals to you, I invite you to join me.

The Epiphany (A reflection thread on pandemic choices)

[danbashaw]

I realized early on in the vaccination process that there was a spiritual component to the decisions people were making, and that those choosing not to be vaccinated often seemed to have strong spiritual beliefs that grounded their choice.

For myself though, I framed it as an evidence-based decision, and was not inclined to take the shot because the evidence was clearly not in. As well, psychological factors predisposed me to take a pass on it: Zero faith in authority, and a high level of innate non-conformism, made my initial vaccine 'hesitancy' a natural stance.

Here in British Columbia the hammer started to come down hard in the Fall of ’21, with coercive mandates preventing the unclean from mixing with the clean. By this point the unvaccinated were banned from entering most businesses, travelling on airplanes or trains, holding most jobs, or crossing international borders. I weighed the pros and cons, and thought "Well, OK, I don’t trust it, but this will get really ugly in a lot of ways if I don’t get the shot, and hey… why should I be right this time, when my concerns are usually overblown?" So I scheduled an appointment to get the shot.

Woke up the day of the appointment with immense clarity that I COULD NOT do this thing, no matter what the cost. There was something at stake that went beyond all the pros and cons, risks and rewards. Something absolutely fundamental – It literally felt more fundamental than life and death.

An aphorism from a novel I read decades ago – "Person must not do what person cannot do." – came to mind, and that is how it sat.

I discussed it with my wife, and we both chose not to take the shots. As hard as it got, and as dark as it looked – and in the winter of ’22 the outlook for the unvaccinated here in Canada was very, very, dark – we never hesitated and never wavered. Our choice was made.

I wonder… did some others here have this kind of moment of deep radical clarity at some point in your decision? Or was it different for you, with your choice arising out of either rational analysis or existing spiritual foundations, or a mix of both, with no 'revelation' needed?

Share your story, if you will!

Love the meme for this week. It was a lovely fairytale, that Big Daddy gubmint luvs you and cares for you so, and take this, take this, take some more of this, it was all so safe and effective.

Thanks JMG, thanks forumistas.

This week I feel things getting stormier.

Press Release: CDC and NIH Policies During Pandemic Had No Proven Benefit to Public Health, Finds Report

This has been up on the bottom of Jim Kunstler's blog page for a few weeks now, figure folks here might be interested:

"In April, 2023, Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM) Kathie Breault was indicted in the Eastern States District Federal Court for “Conspiracy to Defraud the United States” for giving vaccination cards to people who did not receive Covid-19 vaccinations. Her defense is that the vaccinations were ineffective and harmful, and to administer them would violate the Hippocratic oath of health professionals (First do no harm). Her legal battle against a dishonest and vindictive federal government will require lawyer’s fees that exceed her ability to pay — a reminder that “the process is the punishment.”

Kathie has also been accused of “professional misconduct” by the New York State Licensing Board for prescribing Ivermectin via telehealth visits in July 2021. Many other medical practitioners across the United States have been similarly persecuted and some have lost their licenses to practice. Kathie has been under investigation by New York’s Office of Professional Discipline since March 2022. No decision has been reached as of May 2023."

Excess deaths in US have dropped

[(Anonymous)]

Our World in Data reports that the US hasn't had an excessive number of deaths compared to other years since late May.

No matter to what you attribute the excess deaths, I think that's good news. Hopefully the effects of the novel virus/untested vax/whatever malevolent influence are finally waning.

To the person who used to make epubs of all the posts and commentaries: I highly appreciated them, and I would be very happy if you could make the more recent ones available that way. Thank you.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm curious about something: on Magic Monday, you said you doubted the Magic Resistance's workings could have caused the moral and spiritual collapse that's happening in Canada, because you doubted it could cause such extensive collapses among people who did not participate in it. However, you've linked the ongoing moral and spiritual collapse among the American public (especially on the left), and in particular the weird collapse in basic human decency and thinking around the Covid narrative to the Magic Resistance in prior posts. I doubt most Americans, or even most people on the left for that matter, are involved in the Magic Resistance, so I'm not sure why this would be any different.

Would you mind explaining the difference between these?

[lunchboxbike]

With Medicare I am moved to a new plan at least twice a year. Each time I need a new primary care physician. I get a list then check the locations. Some of them don't accept that insurance, and some still have covid policy notices on their doors, like masking and call from the parking lot for service. Injuries and illnesses happen enough that I assume I will eventually need some sort of licensed healthcare worker.

The Inquisition Continues!

[(Anonymous)]

In recent months the medical regulatory body of my province (College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario) has been on a witch hunt of those brave medical doctors who took their oath seriously and refused to compromise themselves. The ‘College’ has so far initiated legal action against six doctors: Mary O’Connor, Rochangé Kilian, Celeste Jean Thirlwell, Patrick Phillips, Crystal Luchkiw, and Mark Trozzi. Mark has been on the College’s ‘wheel of torture’ in recent weeks. This week, Dr. Peter McCollough was offering testimony as an expert witness in defence of Dr. Trozzi. For hours the College’s lawyer tried to get McCullough dismissed, but to no avail (not to say that the proceedings are fair; they are, in fact, extremely unfair and biased in favour of the College, though I wouldn’t go so far as to call it a ‘Kangaroo Court’, perhaps more a ‘Rhinocerous Court’). Anyway, those who like to read up about such things may go here: https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/ontario-medical-board-fails-to-disqualify-dr-peter-mccullough-as-an-expert-in-trial-of-dr-mark-trozzi/

natto

[michele7]

I apologize to the person who asked for my natto made with mint stems recipe a couple of posts back. Here it is. Wash 250 grams of soy beans until water is pretty clear. Soak for 18 to 24 hours. Drain. Pressure steam beans on high for 40 minutes. Let pressure release naturally. You should be able to smoosh a bean between two fingers easily. While beans steam, disinfect containers and spoons you will use for fermentation with boiling water. I use glass or ceramic bake ware. Boil your mint stems for 30 seconds to 1 minute to kill off other bacteria and activate the bacillus subtilis. Place some mint stems in the bottom of your dish, cover with a thin layer of beans, place more stems and cover with beans until full. Place more stems on top. Be generous with the mint stems. I use several containers. Place a sterilized piece of cotton muslin on top of beans and cover with plastic wrap. Poke holes in the plastic wrap with a toothpick for air circulation. I ferment these beans in my bread proofer at 100 degrees Fahrenheit for 24 hours. You will see a white film around the beans. Place in fridge for 2 days to complete fermentation process. After that you can eat! Stirring the natto will produce those sticky strands. There are many excellent blog posts and YouTube videos that show this process. Good luck!

This I just came across and thought extremely interesting. It's not about covid, but thalidomide, however, who isn't going to make some elephantiney obvious analogies? It has just been published by a major publisher and, from the pre-pub blurbs, it looks like it is getting a big marketing push. I suspect that a lot of journalists who cannot cover covid the way they would like to will, as a way of saying the otherwise unsayable, glom onto this thalidomide story and shower the book with kudos (which it may well deserve). It is:

"Wonder Drug: The Secret History of Thalidomide in America and its Hidden Victims" https://www.jennifervanderbes.com/wonder-drug


Here are some of the blurbs:

"A first-rate medical thriller." -Patrick Radden Keefe

"A deeply researched and chilling must read." - Publishers Weekly, Starred

"Novelistic...riveting... A significant work." - Kirkus, Starred

"Fascinating and compassionate." - PEOPLE Magazine

"Narrative non-fiction at its most compelling." - Margot Lee Shetterly

I was in line for coffee at a little place I'd gone to regularly before the insanity hit. I had my mask (now mandatory) pulled down below my nose. The woman in front of me motioned for me to pull it up. I nodded yes and said, 'Yeah.' She kept motioning and I kept replying the same way. Lol

Later I wondered why the owner behind enough plastic panels to qualify as a Yoko Ono exhibition seemingly now disliked me.

Your Government Loves You

[fredsmith11]

Fascinating reading all the comments about the hows and whys behind people's choices around the jab. It's also been interesting tracking the opinions around vaxxes during the life of this blog.

We started off discussing the efficacy of the COVID jab and now it's evolved into a broad consensus of no efficacy only harm, a psyop and/or conspiracy with malign intent behind it all, plus suspicion of most vaxxes and Pharma in general. That's called progress folks! :-)

(Or maybe that's just my own biases coming out).

Also interesting that JMG wrote about the voice that warned him in advance. I sometimes wonder how we ended up on a farm in the middle of nowhere after a life spent in cities, then come lockdowns were restricted to 'only' 50,000 sq kms of country and beaches in our local Government area.

The stupid plastic screens have disappeared here recently. Even the brainless, social distancing floor stickers have been mostly scraped off.

Oh well, they have to clear headspace for Ukraine, the climate emergency, trans rights and whatever the latest woke delusions are.

[(Anonymous)]

I believe it is important to mention the bright side of the Corona hysteria as well: never before have so many people stood up against tyranny as in 2020-2022. At it's high point, millions and millions world wide were doing marches for human rights. Many people spoke out, many lost their jobs, their friends, their social status, but still they did the right thing and stood up for freedom of speech, for bodily autonomy, freedom of medical choice, for democracy and against totalitarianism.
And all this not once or twice, but week after week, month after month, against the most intense indoctrination program ever rolled out.

It dazzles one to even think about it: school closures, church closures, business closures, indoctrination of children, death threats, restriction of movement, forceful confinement to the house, threats of not even being able to buy food, people explicitly calling for the removal of the freedom fighters from society by force. Main stream media, high profile public figures preaching hate and division.
Police brutality, arrests, complete alignment of all main stream media with the oppressors, compliance by many religious figures and churches and cultural establishments, severe censorship on all media channels. In several countries, the military was deployed against the peaceful population. No notion of when it would all end.
Yet many, many people stood up, signed petitions, wrote politicians, spoke out, protested, went to the streets, collected money to fight the oppression tooth and nail, took the perpetrators to court, despite the costs. Many people have united, new media outlets have founded, groups came together to discuss what to do, time and time again. An enormous feat.
Those are the heroes of humanity, they actually rose up when history called. Many did, even though the politicians are trying to hide it. Let us not forget their strength, their courage and their sacrifices.

Astrological Angle

[(Anonymous)]

I experienced the following:
Abusive parent
Narcissism in the work place
Voice in the head that was not my conscience

There was also the Astronomy/Astrology angle.

According to what I had been reading in 2019, ancient manuscripts supported this idea of a new planetary configuration which would bring “we the people” to a deeper understanding, moving us significantly along the path of evolution. I was even using the term “reset” innocently back in 2019, because it hadn’t been compromised yet.

After all that’s happened, I still believe…

Thank you all for being there…

Astrology and the Jab

This was being shared around Twitter tonight, and I thought it might be of interest to Ecosophians!

CANADIANS – HEADS UP!

Earlier this evening I attended a talk where the topic was the latest assaults on our freedoms and well-being being orchestrated by the Government of Canada and its minions. People living in other nations should also take note – this could be happening where you live!

Did you know that there is a bill (Bill C-47) currently before Parliament that would greatly increase the number and cost of the regulations that currently control the sale of Natural Health Products (NHP’s) in Canada? This bill would reclassify NHP’s as “synthetic chemical drugs”. It would effectively make the sale of vitamins and other supplements uneconomical in Canada and force health food stores, herbalists and naturopaths to discontinue the sale of such products. It would effectively put them out of business. This would make allopathic medicine with its dangerous pharmaceuticals and vaccines the only game in town.

Did you know that these proposed regulations contained in Bill C-47 are NOT coming from elected officials? Rather, these proposals are coming from UNELECTED BUREAUCRATS at Health Canada!

I have argued in the past that it will never be enough to expose the politicians. The majority of these outrageous attacks on the people of Canada are coming from the bureaucrats in this country. There is a reason they are called “Mandarins” in Canada!

Klaus Schwab and his WEF have long boasted that they have 80% of Canada’s bureaucracy onside with their plans. I wouldn’t doubt that this travesty is that boast in action.

If you want to register your disapproval, you can contact the following:

Stephen Lucas, Deputy Minister, Health Canada
Email: Stephen.lucas@hc-sc.gc.ca

Natalie Page, Director General, Natural and Non-Prescription Health Product Directorate
Email: natalie.page@hc-sc.gc.ca


The second topic of the night was “15-Minute Cities”.

Did you know that Toronto is currently being divided up into districts that will facilitate the implementation of this plan – the goal of which is TOTAL CONTROL?

If you look around you can see that roadways have been narrowed. There are now signs in many wards indicating the distance in kilometers and time to other destinations throughout the city. It is all being accomplished by stealth because they know it is unpopular. The implementation is piecemeal and covert at this point but it continues nonetheless. They don’t care what you think!

I’ll say it yet again: they will not stop until they are made to stop.

Stay vigilant!
