bullies, all of themWe are now in the fourth year of these open posts. When I first posted a tentative hypothesis on the course of the Covid phenomenon, I had no idea that discussion on the subject would still be necessary more than three years later, much less that it would turn into so lively, complex, and troubling a conversation. Still, here we are. Crude death rates and other measures of collapsing public health are anomalously high in many countries, but nobody in authority wants to talk about the inadequately tested experimental Covid injections that are the most likely cause; public health authorities government shills for the pharmaceutical industry are still trying to push through laws that will allow them to force vaccinations on anyone they want; public trust in science is collapsing; and the story continues to unfold.

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 and its government enablers are causing injury and death on a massive scale. 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 wholly owned 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 plan on making off topic comments, please go away. This is an open post for discussion of the Covid epidemic, the vaccines, drugs, policies, and other measures that supposedly treat it, and other topics directly relevant to those things. It is not a place for general discussion of unrelated topics. Nor is it a place to ask for medical advice; giving such advice, unless you're a licensed health care provider, legally counts as practicing medicine without a license and is a crime in the US. Don't even go there.


5. 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. 

6. Please don't just post bare links without explanation. A sentence or two telling readers what's on the other side of the link is a reasonable courtesy, and if you don't include it, your attempted post will be deleted.

Please also note that nothing posted here should be construed as medical advice, which neither I nor the commentariat (excepting those who are licensed medical providers) are qualified to give. Please take your medical questions to the licensed professional provider of your choice.


With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

Odd. Here in the Netherlands it seems to work fine too.

I have had no problems with dreamwidth in Australia either, so I think you are right.

Maybe Germany is "special", it is the most connected hub with US in terms of communications probably second only to UK. Who knows!

I think this whole thing of "cache" looks like a hidden cache of some sort where things were redirected in order for stuff to be siphoned and monitored man in the middle on a state level. That's why it seems to be just a US, Canada and Germany thing...






It might not even be a DW problem...




Take this example the Google cache finds this man in the middle thing in the article but if I go to the page nothing of the kind is mentioned.






https://bonsai.io/docs/http-504-gateway-timeout







"Network issues","Gateway issues", looks to me that this is not even a DW problem, maybe the man in the middle was sponsored by USAID and it failed, the silence about these issues on the technical forums is suspect to me. The 2 years continue layoff in US industry made all my colleagues into little obedient wussies.









Have you wondered why Google doesn't even index DW content?

And yes I know officially is not possible to have man in the middle over https, because certificates and SSL etc. But I never completely believed that, especially, looking back EFF pushed https a lot and it is now revealed that EFF got a lot of money from USAID.

One thing with http is that because you knew that there could be a man in the middle you payed care with what you share online.

So even if https officially doesn't allow the man in the middle, I think that might not apply if you are "The Man" or "The Company".
