Yes. The mask was the gateway drug... to the real drug. I knew it as it was happening. I read up on the dangers of the mask. And the second I said I won’t do that to myself, and I won’t do that to my child, I was labeled a horrible evil person who didn’t care about anyone and wanted to kill people. I will never forget this ever.

My favorite quote over the last few years was from a guy who called in to a radio show and told the host that some triple masked lady boldly came up to him and asked, "why aren't you wearing a mask? Don't you care about me?" His answer, "No. Actually I don't." It was the most honest answer I have ever heard because most of us in reality don't care about a stranger on the street. We care about ourselves and our families. And, IMHO, that's the way it should be. I always say, if I see someone bleeding to death, I'll do my best to render aid. But I'm not going to worry myself about everyone around me eating right, exercising, getting fresh air and doing the best for their own health. I could care less.

i have a morbidly obese "friend" (former friend) in NYC who boasted that he would be happy to take a booster every two weeks if his doctor advised it. but i guess not happy to push back from the table a bit sooner- this guy has already been through bariatric surgery and has gained back every lost pound and then some!

he also posted on facebook that he couldn't wait for all those unvaccinated people to "hurry up and die already." some things cannot be forgiven.

Where I live in Northern New Mexico, most of the people are devoted Covidians, still masking. If you go into the local hospital for any reason, you must mask up. Then I saw something I'd heard about anecdotally but didn't expect to see: A motorcyclist wearing a mask and no helmet.

Expand full comment

Yep as far as I know, you still have to mask up in hospitals/dr offices around here too (SE/SC Kansas). It's a large part of the reason I haven't worked in the medical field since I got laid off in Nov. 2020. I WILL NOT be stuck in some office, forced to wear a mask all day long. Makes me very angry and disillusioned with my chosen profession....but that's another discussion entirely.

I'm sorry you had that experience. At least, I am retired. I'm also 80. My husband died 5 years ago and just about the time I was ready to live my life without him (a great loss for me), the Covid insanity struck and everything was closed or closed to me as I wouldn't get the shots. I am angry and disillusioned with almost everything. We have been programmed to expect less and young people don't seem to have a clue.

Oddly enough I took part in a peaceful anti-lockdown rally in Glasgow, and the only person in our group who was shouting at the masked to 'take them off' was a rather large and rude woman in a wheelchair.

For me, it was very freeing to understand that I do not care about anyone other than my immediate family and a few friends. And that is a good thing, there's no physical or mental space in my life to do otherwise. The corollary being nobody cares about me either. Which is as it should be.

Related, "the common good" is one of the biggest lies around, it actually doesn't exist. We create a common consensus, or at least a pattern of behavior, through individual actions benefitting ourselves and immediate circle. The result appears to be a common good, but it can't be predermined or mandated.

Expand full comment

“Let everyone sweep in front of his own door, and the whole world will be clean.”

― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

you are right. the common good does not exist as clearly demonstrated by every utopian failure in history. how many businesses are destroyed, people killed, farmland ruined in the name of some higher "good?"

or the irony of listening to pompous asshole Sam Harris saying that even if Hunter Biden's laptop had shown the bodies of dead children in his basement, it had to be suppressed for the greater good of keeping Trump out of office, as if his certainty of what is "right" for the nation should over rule the vote of the people.

there were those who insisted that the cities reduced to rubble in the wake of the George Floyd riots were "only" property and therefore not as important as the life that was lost. sorry, bozos, but MY property means a hell of a lot more to me than the life of a petty career criminal.

that we are asked, no demanded!, to care more about people we've never met and never will meet than we do about our own children, that we were made to let our elderly parents die alone to keep "the world" safe from a virus, that we are supposed to stop eating meat, traveling, reading by electric lights, etc to preserve the planet for "the future" and are hectored by a petulant teenage girl because we aren't sacrificing "enough" for her- it all goes contrary to human nature.

the only way people will do things against their own interests for some amorphous "common good" is by force which should tell you all you need to know

Expand full comment

Very well said.

I used to think there was something wrong with me for not caring about people I've never met. For not buying into the "current compassionate cause". I now realize that the "common good", which is preached by the liars and frauds is just an easy way to line their pockets and maintain power.

Results matter more than intentions. Yet our society refuses to hold leadership to the only standard leaders should be held to: their effectiveness (which is measured in results). Why do so many policies exist that continuously have bad results?

This problem is easily solvable. We need to be a results-driven society once again. Intentions irrelevant, we need to demand results with receipts.

Expand full comment

"We had to move at the speed of science to really understand what is taking place in the market."

Translation: If we went slow and tested our product to determine if it was safe, or if it even worked properly the covid gravy train would have passed us by. The science told us we had a matter of months, maybe a year to 18 months to develop, market, and mass produce the serum. After that most people would begin to develop natural immunity, and our magic elixir wouldn't be needed. So you can see, the window to pull this off was tight. It was necessary for us to abandon the notions of quality control and safety testing and get this thing through the pipeline and into the market fast. So we freed the science of those restraints and kicked the vax into "warp-speed." And obviously it's been a huge success! Our profits are up 150% in the past 2 years.

Expand full comment

Except that the vaxx harmed are not war heros. Most of them are being ignored and further harmed.

I just heard from a friend this morning: she called saying her husband had had a stroke 2 weeks ago, lost the use of his left side, is in rehab where a good but not complete recovery is expected. He's 80 yrs old so it might not be vaxx related, but I know they've had at least 4 shots so I am very suspicious, they are not.

At some point-- when it becomes acceptable to talk about these things-- I suspect they will acknowledge vaxx injuries and call them "casualties of war" or something of that sort . That was the plan in Event 201. Not sure when that will happen though.

I have a veterinary nurse friend who was "on the fence" about the advisability of getting the Covid jabs, and I warned her repeatedly, with links to great substack writers on the topic, NOT to get the poison jabs. She ended up not having a choice as her employer decided to require them, including boosters. She let me know two months ago that the ONLY people she knows who got Covid (and who keep on getting it) are jabbed. She meets a ton of people as she works in a very busy veterinary practice and also runs an animal humane nonprofit. She has had nothing but health issues since taking the jabs (and she looks as if she's aged 10 years overnight), and she reports that her colleagues at work are the same -- always someone out sick with Covid. Yes, some people are noticing that the unjabbed are not getting sick. I myself don't know of anyone unjabbed who got Covid (or who appeared to age 10 years overnight!). However, my unjabbed friends and I are flabbergasted (and saddened) by the number of our jabbed friends and acquaintances who are constantly sick with something or other and who look like hell.

Expand full comment

Yeah, I've noticed that. They are all looking rather the worse for wear and most seem to be doing poorly a lot of the time. One thing after another (i.e. broken immune system). And they ask me how I'm doing, I say, "Great!" and they all seem strangely deflated. Misery loves company, I guess. And they can't hide from the sudden deaths in the news, not forever. They must be in a state of silent panic. I'm unjabbed and got the flu last July, probably covid, but who knows? I sure af didn't take their lousy test. It was a nasty bug, I followed my mish-mash protocol, all over within four days and I feel the stronger for it.

Expand full comment

I pretty much agree. I know a few people, unvaxxed who got covid in 2020, 2021 and 2022, all seniors oldest being in their 90's. Most recovered just about as you would from the flu. I do know 2 people who died of covid although I can't rule out treatment, one 59 and the other 72. These were acquaintances and I didn't know any details.

Having said that, I haven't had covid. I had a cold/sore throat earlier this year that I thought was but I got a blood test for antibodies 2 months later and nothing.

The vaxxed people I know get covid repeatedly and as you say seem to have constant health problems. Some do look aged. I am certain these people regret their decision. When asked how I'm doing, I always say 'just great' and it's the truth.

Trust me, I won't forget either. I have spent the last few years filled with dread, waiting for those I love who are vaxxed to get sick and die. So far, one nephew is dead from the vaxx, and his father is vaxx injured. I know there will be more.

Fortunately, my cancer was indolent, rare enough that I could be almost as informed as anyone else including the specialists. I was also able to put off treatment until a quite patient friendly treatment option was published.

This. I never bought this but it sure as hell made it easy to control people. Test positive? Get locked in your house. In my state, they were telling anyone (asymptomatic) who tested positive for Covid that they must be locked in a room away from family and pets for two weeks and that the department of health would be doing daily check ups to make sure you remained in your own prison.

Remember when they were putting ankle monitors (same ones used for criminals for home confinement) on healthy people who tested positive for Covid putting them under house arrest?

Oh, I was told you can spread while asymptomatic...unless you are vaccinated to "reduce severity", then your asymptomatic spread is impossible. That started right around when most people were realizing the vaxxed were coming down with multiple repeat infections. They wanted to cling to the "you have to get vaxxed because you can still spread while asymptomatic" yet needed to spin that the vaxxed were clearly not viral dead ends to "the vax doesn't stop infection but it keeps your infection asymptomatic so you still won't transmit even if you catch it". And hope no one notices the hypocrisy.

So "you must get vaccinated to reduce your covid infections to asymptomatic ones that can't spread the virus, because without it you will spread the virus even if asymptomatic.". So many Pfizer trolls in Way of the Bern on reddit flooding us with this weapons grade balonium.

Except the hospitals were never overwhelmed here, many many firsthand testimonies have confirmed they were emptier than normal, including a nurse I know who is not against the covid narrative. Added to which they are always overwhelmed during flu season. I went to emerg during flu season in 2009 in Toronto and had to be put in the hall because there were no rooms.

Here's the thing about "overwhelmed." The "2 weeks to flatten the curve" was in March/ April of 2020 in the US IIRC.

In November of 2020, theoretically after the 2 weeks, the hospitals in my area WERE overwhelmed so much so that my husband had C0VID pneumonia-- they never told him he had pneumonia and they simply sent him home because they had no beds. He was home a week before his doctor, via a Zoom visit, had me call an ambulance. We sent him to a different hospital that admitted him for a few days.

Moral of the story? They deliberately effed this up and have broken many, many people.

Where I live they would have tested him, stuck him in a COVID ward, intubated him, destroyed his kidneys, and let him die.

We have been very careful to avoid hospitals in our little family.

We were VERY lucky. Big hospital rejected him [no beds], we ended up at a smaller hospital. He would NOT have let them intubate him; he knew. Ended up getting antibody plasma and a few other things. Is fine now. Thank God.

Very happy you ended up in a reasonable place. In the larger hospitals, you may be unable to keep them from intubating you, they just do what they want, including listing people as "DNR" without their consent.

Thanks be to God that he made it through!

Dual citizen here; moved back to USA after ~20 years in Canada, March 4, '20. (Yes right before TSHTF.) So I've seen and lived 'em both.

The health care system here is broken too. But as for wanting government health care, it's the same as why city people vote for the Democrats. The system they depend on to stay alive is so complex that they do not understand it; so they vote for Rubes that promise to take care of them.

Which of course is impossible; the Rubes know even less about the system than the people do. All they know how to do is promise; they do that to keep power.

So, health care system is broken and getting worse; let's vote for the Rubes who promise to fix it. Out of the frying pan, into the fire...

The more things change, the more they stay the same. The only thing that changes is the amount of power the Rubes in government have. Always more, never enough.

Im sure that if we werent a huge continental nation with 350 million people and a strong tradition of giving the middle finger to authority, if we were like say a small landlocked country like Austria with less than 10 million p eople, Im sure we would have been rounding up unvaxxed people in camps by now.

These people were wrong about everything and the wrecked people's lives and caused the deaths of tens of thousands of people, prob more.

Tens of thousands doesn’t come close, I’m afraid. Probably a half million, so far, in the US alone. CDC MMWR indicates 7-8000 excess deaths per week at this point in time. Life insurance data corroborates. VAERS corroborates. In my case personal experience (17 dead or injured personally known individuals) corroborates. My family lost 53 members in Austria and Hungary during the perpetrators last Great War and mass murder.

He's somehow managed to get worse afterward, following Newsom and his idiotic 'no new gas-powered cars' declaration.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/aug/26/washington-gas-car-ban-sales

Washington state will follow California and prohibit the sale of new gas-powered vehicles by 2035, Jay Inslee, the state governor, said.

California regulators on Thursday moved forward with a landmark plan to phase out the sale of gas cars over the next 13 years in the US’s largest auto market.

The new policy requires 100% of new sales of passenger cars, trucks and SUVs in the state to be powered by electricity or hydrogen by 2035, with one-fifth allowed to be plug-in hybrids.

The specific regulations for Washington state are yet to be created and the public will have the chance to weigh in, the Seattle Times reported.

People forget that "Flattening the curve” didn’t mean covid would necessarily infect or kill fewer people, but that lengthening the time period over which the crisis occurred would help hospitals handle covid without being pushed to the brink. But hospitals were never close to being overrun. In fact, inpatient admission rates went down in every month:

"Franek Collins" comment - several hours ago:

"We had to move at the speed of science to really understand what is taking place in the market."

"Translation: If we went slow and tested our product to determine if it was safe, or if it even worked properly the covid gravy train would have passed us by. The science told us we had a matter of months, maybe a year to 18 months to develop, market, and mass produce the serum. After that most people would begin to develop natural immunity, and our magic elixir wouldn't be needed. So you can see, the window to pull this off was tight. It was necessary for us to abandon the notions of quality control and safety testing and get this thing through the pipeline and into the market fast. So we freed the science of those restraints and kicked the vax into "warp-speed." And obviously it's been a huge success! Our profits our up 150% in the past 2 years. "

For people who bought into the hysteria, however, it had value. Payoffs like "feeling morally superior" are intangible but real. Indeed, social status is one of the most basic payoffs there is.' Our primate brains evolved for status-seeking. Covid hysteria inverted the normal values of the hierarchy. Suddenly low-status behavior (fear, submission, isolation) was approved and rewarded, and vice versa.

You can imagine why certain people were desperate for that to be the "new normal". Not just leaders who prefer that people be fearful, submissive, and isolated. Also those people who are themselves wont to be fearful, submissive, and isolated anyway.

This explains their otherwise bizarre hostility to good news, like low IFR or the near-zero effect on children -- and their perverse enthusiasm for the most fanciful, speculative, or downright incorrect bad news. They weren't afraid of the virus. They afraid of losing their new tool for gaining social advantage.

I believe the Covid crisis, mandates, vaccine compliance was a test bubble to see what level of psyop they could pull off on the entire world in order to gain complete control via (and they are still trying to make it happen) a digital social credit score system exactly like China's. The dollar will be dead and replaced with a digital currency and your every move will be controlled and tracked based on your "score" which I believe will be reflected in ESG-type, carbon/climate change related system. They don't really hide it. It's written in Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030. The WEF spells it out rather plainly what the end goal is and it's with them ruling the entire world along with a small set of elites and the rest of the world being the equivalent of Russian serfs.

Mandated, regular "vaccinations" means that the authorities have the power to poison anyone they wish, at any time. That means the power to eliminate political enemies, critics, and any chosen percentage of people living off shaky entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare. Combine that with digital currency that can be gifted or liquidated in any account by a central office with the stroke of a secretary at a computer, and social credit tracking to rate us by the opinions we express, and you have a totalitarian system that will make Orwell's 1984 look like a paradise of freedom.
