I love cabbage and brussels sprouts. Both go especially great with bacon.

But the minute someone tries to coerce me into buying ONLY cabbage, I'm going to go out of my way to buy brussels sprouts instead. I'm going to wonder what's wrong with the cabbage. Ya dig?

Same. My hubs, a therapist, says I have an obstinate streak. I just think I’m smart to question.

I said something similar here - the more shrilly they shriek that we must all be vaxxed, the more I am going go out of my way to avoid it.

https://granitegrok.com/blog/2021/11/confession-of-a-vaccine-skeptic

In the comments under the article, I said:

"I, too, have read of immune systems "collapsing" after the mRNA vaccination. I'll look for the references."

Thanks to El Gato Malo, and others, mostly on Substack, I now have confirmation that overstimulation of the immune system to the original spike protein reduces immune response, at least to other coronavirii, if not most virii.

I also use the phrase: "Hanging your hat on a narrow spike" to simply explain why shots and boosters are not helping much, if at all.

Expand full comment

The antibodies were just "junk food" to make the shots appear effective, as vaxxed immune systems were programmed to stand down and coexist with the multiplying virus.

Bacon will make you thinner than cabbage though. The fauci science is the same science that says crisco is better for you than animal fat.

When I decided I wanted to lose about 20 lbs, I ate LOTS of bacon. Once I lost the weight, eating bacon keeps me slim. Love the stuff!

> Bacon fat was kept on my great grandma’s stove in a bacon grase container. Yeah, they had those. She lived to be 95.

I rinse out and save a few empty cans (soup, tomatoes, hash, etc.) to have something in which to save bacon grease in the fridge. I'll melt some of it in a wok for stir-fry, make roux to thicken up potato soup (which usually also gets bacon and cheese added)...basically, it gets used in place of other fats.

FWIW, my ancestry is split between German and Irish AFAIK.

My grandfather was Austrian. He used to take my mother and uncle into the kitchen to sop up the grease from the meat pan with bread. She passed that on to my brother and me. I've only had Czech food once. It was goose. So delicious.

In the long long ago I used to live in a city, and in one of the areas there were two butcher shops. The dogs we had back then would always try to go into one, but not the other.

Didn't buy anything from a butcher's the dogs avoid.

Apparently, most hoo-mans aren't as smart as dogs. Or as well-behaved.

Drizzle brussels sprouts with lemon or lime juice, let rest while cutting lardons and pre-heating oven to 400F.

Roast lardons in an open skillet long enough to render fat. Toss sprouts and roast until crispy. Season with salt and pepper, finish with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.

I'm stealing that last graph. Superb. Any new whispers about the jabs being trigger devices for HIV? Seeing a lot of HIV testing for no reason out there and a lot of HIV "vaccine" development and when the media and .gov functionaries start pointing to a fire they started for which they hold the extinguishers behind their back, we should all probably start paying more attention.

Rather than explicitly triggering HIV, I think that the vaccine, by acting as an immunosuppressant, is allowing latent diseases, including some cancers, to escape containment.

Not sure about HIV testing, but here in the SF Bay area there is now a psa going around for free cardiac screening for youths aged 12-25, because “sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death on school campuses”(?!) However this “service” is only offered to fully vaccinated youth. Unvaxed need not apply (of course the morons think this is for the safety of hcp’s).

My athletic, totally ripped (previously) healthy husband is getting ready for heart surgery on Friday. Every single nurse I have encountered during this long process (8 tests so far, some really invasive, like a catheter inserted through his groin) have said to me, on the down low, how tired they are of seeing men with no history of heart issues all of a sudden come in with serious heart issues. Post-vaxx. Sadly, my husband's best friend died in his sleep from a massive coronary in August, post vax. Active, healthy, no smoking or drinking. 53 years old.

I hope he does well post-op, and that you have support.

I have been trying to discover advice on "spike protein" detox, our daughter was semi-forced by her employer to be Vaxxed, so far ok, but my wife can "smell" spike proteins, not really an odour, but acts like an allergen. "The ScienceTM" has claimed that there is no spike protein shedding, so I believe my wife. The spike acts as an endothelial toxin and a prothrombotic, likely the source of your husband's trouble. In some of the research there are reports of circulating spike protein kinetics and persistence, not available in usual clinical practice. I have reviewed the FLCCC.org long Covid advice, the Orthomolecular.org detox programme (one of which we are trying on our daughter), and many articles over the past two years. If you are in the USA, you might be able to find an FLCCC associated physician for advice.

it's a bogus reading of the EPIC medical records.

many patients have their vaccinate carried in non-structured comments fields so when you do a database search/table join they show as unvaxxed because the data was not entered in a searchable format.

it's a known issue and it seems to be being exploited for political purposes.

Expand full comment

Yes, one of the nurses from America's Frontline Nurses said the same thing. And she also mentioned that they will not give full credit for being "vaccinated" unless you have received the booster. So, whereas UK will delineate between one shot, two shots, boosted, etc... USA is binary - vaxxed (boosted) or un-vaxxed (any permutation of not-boosted).

oh wow, thanks for explaining that. I keep telling people to look at the ages of the hospitalized/deaths as it is a very close proxy for vax status...but a lot of places really hide that age data. I wonder why.....

This is the problem I am seeing everywhere: massive obfuscation (on purpose), and incompetence (very poor tracking).

If you view the "war on a virus" as something that was designed to be won by the ruling class then you are working under a false assumption. Similar to the phony "War on Terror" the entirety of "Covid-19" is a complete fraud invented to create a bio-security infrastructure that will perpetually enrich the ruling class while bleeding the general populace dry.

All talk of so-called efficacy of these poison injections are meaningless distractions and quite besides the (existentially urgent) point when you understand that the virus/disease they’re allegedly designed to protect against doesn’t exist in the first place and, additionally, what their real, above-mentioned purpose(s) is.

When seen in this light Phase One of the "Covid-19" scam has been quite a success for the ruling class as we witnessed the largest transfer of wealth in history to that ruling class and the creation of a new set of billionaires who made their fortunes off these "Covid" policies.

If you view this whole 'pandemic' situation through the lens of health, safety, science and saving lives, then most of it makes little sense. If you view it through the lens of money, power, control, and wealth transfer, then all of it makes perfect sense.

Covid is not an epidemiological story. Covid is a crime story.

They needed the lockdowns. They needed the lockdowns to be long, destructive and depressing. They need everyone to be scared of more lockdowns so that they can say, "To avoid further lockdowns you need to accept Vaccine Passports."

The lockdowns, mandatory muzzles, anti-social distancing and the other measures did nothing to protect or improve public health- they were never designed to do so.

They were all designed to deliberately break the global economy (and crush competition, especially small businesses) as well as break people's minds, will and the social fabric, in order to “build back better”, according to the diabolical and dystopian visions of the psychopaths waging this class war, which is essentially a billionaires utopia, in which they own the planet like a techno-feudal fiefdom, and oversee the drastically reduced population of digitally branded humanity like cattle in a super-surveilled technocracy.

The injections are the Trojan horse to get us in the door of that digital concentration camp (as well as the metaphorical gas chambers), starting with vax-ports, followed by digital IDs, and then connected to CBDC accounts and UBI scrip, which will allow them to track our every move and purchase, and “nudge” us toward whatever medical, dietary, or lifestyle choices they desire, at threat of having our rations reduced, or, if we misbehave too badly, being shut out of the system altogether.

They’re specifically targeting kids and young people most of all, deliberately inflicting mass trauma on them, because they’re the ones who’ll grow up in that New Normal™️, and the goal is to condition them to accept total control over every aspect of their lives and a dehumanized screen-based existence, to the point where they won’t remember living any other way, breathing free, being free.

It’s blackmail on a global scale.

The problem is they´ve shown one time after another that they can twist reality to make it fit into their premises. For example, when masks showed no ability whatsoever to interfere with the infection lines, the reaction was not to recognize it, but to speak about using better masks.

Now that boosters have clearly not worked, they´ll use it in ther own advantage, simply stating that this is proof that Covid is as dangerous as they said, so we can´t drop our guard and must keep using masks, social distance, etc.

Great analysis, except for one very important error: It is not just the Covid vaccines that are dangerous. ALL vaccines are inherently dangerous. That is why Congress gave the vaccine makers complete immunity through the fateful 1986 law. They were acknowledging that all vaccines are "unavoidably unsafe" (their words, not mine). In most cases, this is because of the adjuvants, which are the small amount of poison added to the vaccine to stimulate production of antibodies but trigger a process called molecular mimicry and cause autoimmune disease.

The childhood vaccine program in the U.S. is a complete disaster, causing not just autism but ADHD, deadly food allergies, and a whole host of other illnesses. Children in the U.S. are the most heavily vaccinated in the developed world. They are also the sickest and most disabled in the developed world. This is not a coincidence. Correlation does not equal causation, except for when it does.

The very same people who told you the Covid vax is safe and effective are the ones who told you all the other vaccines are safe and effective. They are lying sociopaths.
