Since mid-2020 the “public service” adverts on the radio have been driving me crazy. It’s just taxpayer paid propaganda.

Just now I heard the worst one yet - a little girl’s voice saying, “Daddy, I know you are scared of the vaccine, but, will you get the vaccine…. For me?”

I literally started yelling at the sky when I heard that.

No discussion at all of what happens to little Susie when dad has a stroke or heart attack or develops a long term illness in response to a virus with a 99.9% survival rate.

It was in front of me for so long, but I simply didn't see it. Who pays the piper calls the tune. Then in 2020 it clicked: given the number of commercials for "noodle arm syndrome" medications, the drug companies call the tune in televised media.

You'll never see a 60 minutes report on Covid vaxxes like you saw on Swine Flu. Your local station won't report emergency cases as vaxx injuries as long as those government adverts play.

The advertising model wrecks everything it touches.

If we ever get a good admin and good congress at the same time (God willing!), I think outlawing drug advertising on TV, like it used to be, should be legislation #1.

Yeah, it's been a disaster. I thought letting lawyers advertise was a bad idea, but it hasn't driven public policy the way drug ads have.

And those ads may be the incorporated-over-decades hypnotic model for accepting cognitive dissonance as delineated on this substack. I hadn't seen these ads as I hadn't watched tv with commercials in a very long time, but I found them flabberghasting when I finally did. Always some bunch of happy active people smiling, with the (can't recall the word for this) news- ticker- like lines of text running below stating horrible side effects finishing with "even death". I saw one with a tall Hispanic woman inside in the dark, the drug being for weight loss, and one of the side effects being "bleeding from the palms." Bleeding from the palms?? Like the Big Pharma stigmata? Then, the one I still get online, for COPD, "Trelegy". They have such contempt for us that they can embed an insinuation that you will die ("elegy") in a drug name. Just imagine what those constant repetitions are doing to tv watchers' minds. [insert here how I think they should spend eternity]

I was in the car one day, and an advert came on for an LVAD. This is a Left Ventricle Assistance Device for heart failure patients. I only knew this from some crazy episodes of Grey's Anatomy back in the day. Am I supposed to demand an LVAD from my doctor, because I heard an ad on the radio? Why on earth would I be recommending heart assistive device to a cardiologist? I mean, the gravity of what we unleashed really hit at that moment. I don't trust most med professionals, but it's a bridge too far to have patients demanding a type or brand of heart device with no medical training. Also, that device will probably expedite your death, LOL.

We need public financing of all elections, totally capped, with no PAC or corporate funding, 10 year bans from being hired in industries you regulated. No direct to consumer drug advertising, no mandates on any product where the manufacturer has liability protection. If they won't take the risk, we can't offload it one others. Just to get started.

Let me run it down for you:

Tv stations get paid by advertisers.

TV Stations report ‘news’

TV stations select the ‘news’ stories they want to cover &

TV stations DO NOT PICK STORIES THAT SHOW THEIR BIG ADVERTISERS IN A BAD LIGHT…

Big Pharma pays BANK to

all the media

so all the media who allegedly report ‘news’ OWE THEIR WHOLE TV STATION’S BUDGET TO BIG PHARMA COMPANIES so they don’t pick ‘news’ stories outing their biggest payers…

Do you see why it doesn’t matter wtf 💉 💊 they pitch during the ad?

It’s really just a bonus if you happen to remember cialis or Xanax next time you’re at the dr office.

Annnd there’s also the fact that the whole u.s.media news & entertainment & ‘controlled opposition,’ too

Good points. Drug and medical device ads are on TV all day long. Wth would I want any medications that need constant advertising rather than a doctor’s preference to choose for my health. Then we have to listen to the side effects, knowing it’s not even all, but ‘truth in advertising’ makes them admit. It’s all ridiculous.

Just as the Trudeau government basically owns CTV, remember Biden's admin paid One Billion Tax-payer Dollars for media coverage: "In response to a FOIA request, Biden’s HHS revealed that it purchased advertising from major news networks including ABC, CBS, and NBC, as well as cable TV news stations Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC, legacy media publications including the New York Post, the Los Angeles Times, and the Washington Post, digital media companies like BuzzFeed News and Newsmax, and hundreds of local newspapers and TV stations. These outlets were secretly ordered to publish numerous articles and video segments promoting the vaccine." https://www.planet-today.com/2022/03/biden-paid-one-billion-dollars-to.html

Reading about the Gulf Sultanates, I came across the phrase "no representation without taxation." In other words, since the governments there could print all the money they wanted by pumping oil or gas out of the ground, they didn't have to tax people or give them a voice in government. It's an interesting argument.

Of course, last fiscal year the Federal Government covered I think about 50% of the budget with taxes; the rest was borrowed or printed into existence. They don't have to listen if we don't directly pay. Of course we all pay in inflation.

Expand full comment

Following the massive spending passed in 2021, the current budget exceeds the capability to tax to revenue neutral. No matter what tax schemes are promised, it can't work. The "tax the rich" mantra is fine prime time but the math doesn't work: Confiscating ALL the wealth of every billionaire in America will fund the current federal spending rate for less than months.

Looking for why inflation is running away? Doubling energy costs through idiotic policies shutting down production is half the story. Devaluation of the currency due the fact we can't sustain our debt is a big part too.

I agree with your view stated here but it’s not the whole picture. Here in Australia our national broadcaster (ABC) that has no advertising but a government master, has and continues to give out some of the worst fear porn. We’re coping it from all sides. But, it’s not that long ago that I was still defending the ABC as being the most balanced here in Aus. As disturbing as it’s been to finally see through the ‘piper’. Like you, I’m glad I finally can.

There's zero reason that media should have catered to the advertisers in the first place. Substack is a much more healthy industry: you cater to the readers.

Good points! I think having like minded people in power in government and as the heads and mouthpieces of the media is at least as big of a problem- for example, when a republican is president the “news” spends most of its time shrieking and attacking everything he does and says. I don’t think it’s just the advertising model.

The bottom line is this. Any examination of every large world event for a 100 plus years was likely planned. The world wars, 911, Libya's fall, Afghanistan, Iraq, the Ukraine issue, Corona...the list goes on and on. People who go about the world thinking things just happen, when things are largely planned is pretty unbelievable. Think whatever you want but the USA has had almost 300 school shootings and Canada with just the about the same amount of weapons per captia has had 1 school shooting. You think that's just how it goes??? Excuse me Dum Fk but wake up. It's all planned. Evil is planned like a German car, the right has seemingly NO PLAN.

GVB accurately stated that 'anti-vaxxer' is just a lazy label thrown out in order to not deal with the actual concerns/arguments. It's no different than calling someone who doesn't want an aspirin as an 'anti-piller'.

What's missing from the general public's assessment is that, generally speaking, if you take a drug and then stop, the effects of the drug eventually wear off. But a vaccine is more like a firmware change than a software one and you don't necessarily get to clear that programming.

I'm still most bothered by statements about natural immunity. Despite more than a century of epidemiological and virological study indicating that natural immunity rocks holy ass, we are forced to swat away such verbal vomit as "vaccines are better than natural immunity" and "even if you've had the Coof, you need to be vaccinated" (with zero proof for why because there is none). The one that bothers me most is perhaps the least offensive on initial reading. I think it bothers me most because it consists of that mealy-mouthed "doubtspeak" that punches a hole in reality while saying, "Hey, I'm not saying one way or another, I'm just sayin'." Because deep down you know that the person saying it is a fucking liar. That statement is this: "Although natural immunity MAY confer some protection against COVID-19, the strength and duration of that protection are UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME." Because they can't say, "But just for the record, every other time in human history, natural immunity has been da bomb. And oh, btw, vaccines only work because of your immune system, so . . ." Bunch of idiots.

I'm just pleased to know that two-and-a-half years in, they finally determined that COVID-19 is causing all the "unexplained" heart attacks, none of which started until more than a year after the Coof hit. This BS is making my fucking head spin like a top.

Expand full comment

The argument, as far as I could figure it out, was "but look at the ANTIBODIES vaccinated people have!!!! So many antibodies. More than natural immunity!" The question of whether more antibodies = better protection was never answered, because *of course* more is better! We're Americans, aren't we?

Expand full comment

Yep. Pre-vaccine, the presence of antibodies after infection and recovery did NOT mean we were immune, or so we were told. At best, said the CDC, we had maybe 90 days of immunity because the antibodies began to wane after that. T-cells and B-cells were simply ignored by the "experts."

Once the vaccines were rolled out, antibodies became the marker used to "prove" the vaccines were working. The more Abs, the better. But the fully vaccinated should by no means go and get antibody-tested at the local pharmacy to see if their jabs had taken effect. Hmm.

Then we found out how fast the unnaturally-high levels of antibodies wane in the vaxxed after the first 3 months or so, something like 40% per month compared to 5-10% per month after natural infection. And we saw the vaxxed Abs plummet to undetectable levels in well under a year, while naturally-induced antibodies plateaued and maintained a constant low level. "We'll just add a booster! It should have been a 3-dose series all along. That'll fix it!"

The first booster pushed antibodies even higher than the original series, and they came crashing down even faster. Along came omicron, and those antibodies didn't work too well against it. The response, of course: "Time for another booster! With more antibodies, there will be more in circulation that work against the variant!"

Now here we are, with the FV&2B cohort getting infected in spite of all those antibodies, and it isn't necessarily mild. *cough*Gavin Newsom, 10 days after his fourth jab*cough*.

Expand full comment

Here in NZ they are bombarding folks with propaganda on radio and TV telling them that if their kids get omicron they should wait 3 month then get them vaccinated. I mean seriously how dumb would you have to be to get your kids done once they’re recovered? I guess it really is an international IQ test. Sad that their could be unknown long term consequences for the health of these young people, who were just born in the wrong place at the wrong time to parents who trusted the government and MSM.

Someone posted a screenshot of two Twitter comments by the same doctor. In an earlier one, he mentioned natural immunity as one of the ways people will be immune to corona. In a second Tweet from, I believe, 3 weeks later, he said, "Natural immunity--a term I am not familiar with..." Sigh.

You do not understand. Vaccines were not safe in 2020, because Trump was the president. He is a bad person, so everything he does is bad.

As soon as Trump ceased to be the president, vaccines became "save and effective".

Why?

Because, "we" are the good people. So, everything we do and say is good.

As I've written before, I know someone who manages clinical drug trials.

She was VERY skeptical about the vaxx. Admitted there was nothing in the clinical databases that she could find out them being safe. She was not planning to get one.

I really wish more people would at least consider this course. It's all poison (do thinking people really need more than the ingredient lists and the mighty long lists of adverse effects published and even directly stated on the idiot box ads to accept this?) and the individuals, companies, and agencies manufacturing and "regulating" the poisons have been just as corrupt as the last year or two for as long as they've been operating.

I feel that the shenanigans of the past couple of years should have offered an ideal opportunity for any sort of critical thinkers to dig into their preconceived notions and start questioning more. Sadly, I feel that way too many people got caught up resisting the "new technology" aspect of the supposed corona stabs and still have trouble seeing the forest for the trees, continuing to be uncritical of "old-fashioned" poisons.

There is this thing called Terror Management Theory. Basically, people cannot psychologically tolerate being reminded of their own impending death; it makes them crazy.

People were reminded of their own impending death for TWO YEARS. Well, people who listened to the MSM constantly.

Now, they will do anything to stop thinking about their demise. Uncle Sugar says take a vaxx. Then another. Then another. Then another. They'll do it. Just to stop thinking that they might die from c0vid.

Fact: I only know {edited} FOUR people over the age of 55 that are unvaxxed. My husband, myself, a natural health practitioner and her husband . Everyone else is vaxxed and boosted multiple times, and will continue to do so because it will keep them "safe." And they are happy to do so. Some have had side effects that they do not attribute to the vaxx; there was a heart attack death in the family that happened five days after the Pfizer vaxx, but no one connects it to the vaxx. His parents are vaxxed and double boosted.

very interesting; was it just "listening to MSM"? - I mean, I suppose I am as terrified of death as the next guy - but did not for a single moment consider the gene therapy (and only listened to MSM in one isle of the grocery store - NYC mayor was always telling me how to wash my hands!).

this from my son in law:

"Do we understand mRNA vaccines and how they work? Yes, we do, and it was not something “Robert Malone invented” and it has no ability to change your DNA. Dr. McCullough, who works with Turning Point USA (a red flag perhaps?/do you search for doctors that give speeches for ACLU?)... has quite a history. What an embarrassment. The largest nonprofit health system filed a temporary restraining order against him just to get him to stop mentioning their prior affiliation. This is the guy who interviewed with Joe Rogan who falsely pushed the SPARS pandemic scenario as a planning seminar to push mass vaccination.

We are so grateful to the many thousands of people who have been working as hard as they ever have in the past 2 years of our lives to get these vaccines ready. We are grateful for the people who built the testing infrastructure, who administered the vaccines, who care for the sick through all of this. Grateful to have some immunity from COVID and the vaccines without having to carry it to someone more vulnerable.

There have been aggressive disinformation campaigns on social media and if you get sucked into that rabbit hole, you can start to believe in a lot of crazy things. You start tying your identity into those beliefs, digging in. But yet, I’m sure there’s another argument we haven’t heard. And we do not want to become a professional vaccine arguers. It’s exhausting. It’s not based on logic, but fear. If your goal is to bring people together, to get more people vaccinated, you accomplish the opposite."

Rosemary dear, my heart truly goes out to you. I know how this hurts. At present I am not on speaking terms with anyone in my family - all three sisters, and some nephews and a niece who won't go against their mother. This is about politics as well as covid, they are all extreme far-left liberals with unbelievable TDS, they are okay with hormone blockers in kids, etc. I got tired of all the hate and craziness, the gaslighting...so I'm taking a break. It was my choice, so it's not as painful a situation as yours. I think of them every day, and say prayers that no one dies from the jabs they were badgering me to take. I pray that one day we will find reconciliation, but I wonder if it will be possible. My partner had the same thing happen recently with his crazy Karen sister, she yelled and screamed and called him names because of his politics, etc. (she "adores Fauci!"; this is a clue). I think this is happening everywhere, between friends and family members. All I can suggest is, do all you can to stay in touch with your daughter, even if she does not reply, maybe send her ecards here and there and tell her you love her and are thinking of her, just that. Don't mention her husband or the breakup, no beseeching or guilt-tripping (I've been down this road, you see), just let her know you are holding her in your heart. She'll figure it out. Take care of yourself, and remember that love will always prevail. Bless you.

Keahi. you have found a friend in me.

It has been sooo long since this conversation occurred on Gato's blog.

And here we are almost the end of August.

I could write a novel, but it would not be excellent

So much has occurred these past 4 months. I feel like a different person.

I am so grateful for my husband, and the distraction of caring for my 98 year old father at his very fancy rich people retirement community (Ashby Ponds, Virginia, google it. Amazing, but $$$$$$$) Anyway

Yes I have endured this drama, but other as well. My younger brother is very arrogant, gosh I do not know how much I have shared here. My life these past few years has been like a stupid annoying drama. My hubbs is so stable and calm, he always pulls me back in. I am not weak, but I have a tender heart.

Anyway, My daughter sent us a card and blah blah blah... and "when we feel the time is right, we will connect with you" - yes, sadly, I found that insulting.

When their time is right?

Well, I miss my daughter. I texted her last week and told her I missed her. We used to be very verrrry close. She said she missed me and that was about it. I realized her husband, that I used to really like, actually I loved him. He seemed kind and fun. Now I see a part of him that is in his person. He is controlling. I also see that this is something in his family.

I could really write a book. It would be a boring but my gosh, I have connected so much.

We are still not communicating. I think her husband is in control. Now he works from home too, so there is no way for me to come and visit for a few hours sneaky like. Well, the babies would spill it.

I will end here, but just so you know, I greatly appreciate all of everyones encouraging and most kind words.

All of you that are struggling, I know how you feel, I know where you are standing. Focus on all of the goodness that you have. Keep your heads straight and calm.

I know we are not alone in this. That should be a comfort to us, Right

Love always, Rosemary

Love to you, too, I am so grateful for you and everyone on here, we are helping one another get through this shipwreck. I really don't know how I would survive without these lifelines of sanity. And we will get through this, I am sure of it, with the grace of God and with truth on our side.

I'm so sorry about your daughter & her husband. Has anything improved since he sent the email? Hang in there, my friend.

Expand full comment

no

not really

I have not seen my grand babies.

I feel different now. Is that weird? I feel like a differnt person. I feel like this entire ordeal has been abusive.

My son in law told me years ago that his parents cut ties with his father's parents in Wisconsin. They did not communicate for 17 years.

That seemed entirely weird.

You know, this is all new to me, and to my husband. We came from families of normal people. At least I thought. Everyone has weirdos in the family. I thought long and hard about my older sister (now deceased) and the mentally abusive man she married. He was a jerk. She died from smoking, had a aneurysm in 2000 and died.

So, with that thinking about controlling people. ..... think about that for a moment. Controlling people.

I have not brought this up, obviously, with my daughter. I do not know what she is thinking. I know she needs to hold this together for her three babies all under age 5.

This is a saga that I believe many many kind and lovely people are experiencing these past few years.

I also believe that this has been generated by the environment we are living in. the circumstances of division and derision encouraged by... well, politics and those associated with creating this horrible state of human exchange or any sort of understanding for others. Where has that gone?

Even my 98 year old father has been brainwashed by the Washington Compost and online news he reads. It is sad. I do not engage in any possibly contentious discussions with him. At all. We talk about happy things. I steer the conversation if he brings something up.

it is such a shame that he has sided with coercion, bullying, gaslighting and demonisation.

To see this tactic from leaders you would think would lead the empathetic to at least CONSIDER motives/ vested interests/ perverse incentives of the ' system' in which the discipline operates...

Awesome wall of text from your (nincompoop) son-in-law. I’ve got a couple of in-laws I’d like to trade in for new models.

Expand full comment

Maybe ask him what are his primary sources for news and information about the jabs. Then go from there in ridiculing him from sunup to sundown, and then provide links to a half-dozen or so essays from el gato malo and ask him to read them AND then to rebut them.

Expand full comment

that is what started this whole fire.

Over the past two years I sent them, maybe 4 or 5 (over two years) links to vaccines

My daughter sent a long email accusing me of badgering them with medical and political emails. She has three babies under 4. So they are exhausted.

They live 35 minutes away, but I have not been over there anymore because hubbs and I have been told "our relationship is over"

You were/are right to try to save the kids. It is the only true and right thing you could have done. Sadly, vaxxed people have made a terrible, irrevocable mistake. Hopefully they will learn the truth before they doom their children with their own folly and at least save the children.

Well then he no doubt won't like (if his sources ever report) that the jabs are linked to the incurable, horrible-way-to-die Mad Cow disease.

"Three studies now have linked mad cow to the jabs: a U.S. study, a French study, and a peer-reviewed Turkish study.

The Turkish and French studies both identified mad cow cases that suddenly and unexpectedly appeared after people got the safe and effective Pfizer, Moderna, and AstraZeneca vaccines, suggesting links between getting spike-protein vaccines and being infected with mad cow. Since unstable mRNA can sometimes be erroneously transcribed within cells, the U.S. study speculated that a misfolded spike protein could create a misfolded “prion region” which injures healthy prions, leading to mad cow disease.

The French study found mad cow symptoms started within 11 days of being vaccinated; the Turkish study found symptoms appearing the next day after vaccination. Of the 26 patients involved in the French study, all of them — 100% — died. On average, death occurred five months after receiving the safe and effective jabs.

The pre-jab form of mad cow used to take years to kill folks. The researchers describe this vaccine-induced form of mad cow disease as “radically different” due to its progression, which is faster than anything they’ve ever seen before in a prion disease.

...

I also found at least one February 2021 study predicting that the jabs could cause prion damage: [COVID-19 RNA Based Vaccines and the Risk of Prion Disease | Biology]. In this study, the researchers evaluated Pfizer for potential to cause prion diseases. Their conclusion:

“Analysis of the Pfizer vaccine against COVID-19 identified two potential risk factors for inducing prion disease in humans. The RNA sequence in the vaccine contains sequences believed to induce TDP-43 and FUS to aggregate in their prion based conformation leading to the development of common neurodegerative diseases.”"

I read somewhere in the last couple days that dementia was rising, and quickly. Cannot recall the source. Also Dr Been had a guest on a few months ago hinting that he expected this. God help us all if this is true. I have been caring for demented relatives over the past 10-20 years. It is very stressful and even traumatizing at times.

From Berenson.

"Deaths from cancer were slightly above average, but the biggest jumps were in deaths from diabetes and dementia, both almost 30 percent above normal.

Reports in scientific journals and in the federal VAERS database have highlighted cases of severe diabetic dysregulation following the mRNA shots. Anecdotal stories of elderly people suffering rapid mental deterioration, especially after a second or booster shot, are also common."

Right there with you, Rosemary B. "What's the FLCCC? Is that part of Q-Anon? No thanks for that [horse medicine]. I'm not taking ANYthing that is not FDA approved. Pass on that!" And, "We are really worried about you. We think your behavior is kind of getting cult-like. I don't want to lose [my parent] to a cult." Meantime I am worrying about THEM and if their bodies are going to hold up to the 3-4 vax poison jabs. And trying not to cry as yet ANOTHER jabbed friend told me she has cancer.

Notwithstanding that NONE of it is "approved" by the FDA, only "authorized". Which provides total legal immunity, which is also why the one that IS approved - Comirnaty - is NOT available, because why would the pfuckers at Pfizer relinquish the immunity they enjoy from the EUAd jabs and expose themselves to Comirnaty's legal liability.

ALL stuff those ignoramuses have NO clue about, because they live at the trough where the alphabet legacy media spoon-feed them the Left's narrative. F'n clueless lazy morons.

Here's more they have NO clue about:

"The Epoch Times ran a story earlier this week headlined, “Pfizer Moves to Dismiss Lawsuit From COVID-19 Vaccine Trial, Citing ‘Prototype’ Agreement.”

The gist is that whistleblower Brook Jackson sued Pfizer last year alleging that the vaccine maker violated federal laws governing procurement of new drugs and clinical trial regulations. But Pfizer just filed a motion to dismiss Brook’s lawsuit, arguing that those laws and regulations don’t apply to its vaccine contract with the U.S. Department of Defense, because its agreement was executed under a special provision for “prototype drugs,” allowing contractors to skirt many of the rules and laws that typically apply to normal drug development contracts.

In the “Background” section of its Motion to Dismiss, here’s exactly what Pfizer argued:

*Because of pandemic-related exigencies, the agreement was not a standard federal procurement contract, but rather a ‘prototype’ agreement executed pursuant to 10 U.S.C. § 2371b[.] … The [contract’s Statement of Work] describes a ‘large scale vaccine manufacturing demonstration’ that imposes no requirements relating to Good Clinical Practices (‘GCP’) or related FDA regulations.*

So there you have it. It wasn’t a “rushed experimental drug.” According to PFIZER ITSELF, it was an “exigency-driven prototype manufacturing demonstration not subject to good clinical practices and related FDA regulations.” It’s totally different from an experiment. This was a “demonstration.”

It took me a while to stop laughing. I’m old enough to remember when calling the jabs “experimental drugs” could get you thrown in Facebook jail. Now PFIZER is shirking liability for its shoddy trials by calling its own drug a “prototype” and a “demonstration.” That would’ve made for a good marketing slogan, right? “Our drug isn’t experimental, it’s a prototype!”

The bottom line is a prototype isn’t something you give to consumers. It’s a mock up, a test. This argument is a joke. It might work, but it’s a joke, a joke they played on all of us."
