They're not all going to die, they just have a statistically higher chance of dying - which has already been demonstrated by the data, and that will add a certain amount of excess deaths each year.

So, I’m not asking anyone to come clean and admit you’re lying about masks, vaccines, elections, etc. Just stop lying. And stop trusting the US government, media, and the medical industry. They’re no different than that St. Louis automotive group that sells wrecked cars as new. They lie and cover up for profit. You have no need to protect them.

Vaccine Injury Denialism: A Modern-Day Semmelweis Reflex

The question has been asked in many forms, endlessly, earnestly, and incredulously, both before Covid, and at an accelerated rate after the release of the Covid shots.

“How can doctors not see what is happening?”

“Do you think all these doctors are in a conspiracy?”

“Why would all these doctors lie?”

Today on Twitter one doctor commented:

“I can't believe they did this. More than that, I can't believe the number of people who fervently and feverishly went along with it. My mind refuses to acknowledge this. There simply cannot be that many Satanistic people in this world. It's an interesting phenomenon to observe...”

The answer to all these queries is 175 years old. Decades before Sigmund Freud outlined “Denial” as a psychological defense mechanism, we saw The Semmelweis Reflex in action. It is a specific kind of defense mechanism seen in medical personnel when given unwelcomed information and evidence.

The mass denial of vaccine failure and vaccine injury is not a mass conspiracy, or an evil plot by all medical workers. It is simply one of the most basic psychological defense mechanism used by the human psyche, that the vaccine industry works very hard to feed.

To understand the bizarre and dangerous transformation of liberalism from something of a single-minded feminist clique to a movement that we could very realistically describe as "anti-woman," you only have to understand this one rock-solid, inarguable fact of modern politics in the United States:

Liberals are utterly and completely terrified of ever appearing like they agree with conservatives about anything, and this fear motivates nearly everything they believe, do and say.

Once you grasp this, then everything pretty much falls into place. It explains why progressives appear increasingly comfortable with the idea of, for instance, post-abortion infanticide: Because they sense that this is a thing to which conservatives are very much opposed, and so they worry if they too are opposed to it, then someone might think they are conservative.

There are certainly many who actively use censorship, propaganda, and defamation as tools to advance their political or socioeconomic agendas, and these same people or organizations may find that propaganda and censorship are very complementary with other authoritarian methods for political control of populations.

But I am increasingly convinced that a large fraction of the population actually seeks leadership that provides the comfort and safety of authoritarian parental substitutes. Many do not want to be free; they want to be told how the world is, what to think, and what to do. And for these many, propaganda, censorship and authoritarian behaviors in their leaders may fulfill what is essentially an immature, child-like need for shelter and protection from a confusing and rapidly changing world with it’s inherent diversity of thought, information, and opinions. And the multigenerational push by so many parents to shelter their precious children from the risks and vagaries of life (and the environment) may have contributed to the surge in Cancel and Woke cultural practices. Our sheltered children have all too often grown into adults that cannot tolerate the stress and angst inherent in a world of diverse opinions and thought. They just want to feel safe, like when they were a child.

Mass Formation: Most People Are Scared of Freedom and Don't Want the Burden of Having to Think for Themselves

Professor Mattias Desmet: "We are inclined to believe that people want to be free, but most people don't. Most people are scared of freedom. Freedom brings with it responsibility; it brings challenges. It makes [it so] that you need to think. You need to do a certain mental labor; you need to think about your life, [and] you need to think about decisions you have to make... Most people prefer not to do it and prefer to look for someone who tells them what to do."

@rwmalonemd Doubling Down is the Government's Only Option: Admitting Fault Would Shake Everything

Dr. Robert Malone: "How could the US government ever admit to the sins and harms that have been caused? How could they ever admit to their obvious role in funding the Wuhan laboratory? How could they ever do that? The financial burden of coming to grips with what has been done here would be huge. It would shake the entire government."

We have tried to be fearless, but some of our hypotheses, associations and inferences can make many (including ourselves) quite uncomfortable. They often seem to trigger considerable cognitive dissonance within our own minds, those of our readers and certainly our detractors. I believe that this sense of cognitive dissonance, of psychological pain, that often occurs when encountering facts or ideas which are different from the ones which we have relied upon in the past (and have previously employed to make sense of the stream of the present) can be a signpost pointing towards an opportunity for personal growth. However, one thing that we have become acutely and very personally aware of is that there seems to be a movement in modern society to avoid information, theories or opinions which trigger cognitive dissonance and the associated psychological pain. Often associated with terms such as “cancel culture”, “virtue signaling” and “woke-ism”, this movement appears to have manifested as a belief system which holds that the individuals as well as the collective body politic have a fundamental right to intellectual protection, to not encounter unpleasant thoughts, information or ideas which are inconsistent with their internal model of reality. These are the intellectual roots which nurture censorship, denialism, and the weaponized gaslighting, defamation and slander, as well as the idea that anything which causes individuals to lose faith in their government constitutes domestic terrorism and should be treated as such. There is a long and rich human history of punishment by death for such dissident thoughtcrimes. ...

The setting for the Allegory of the Cave is a hypothetical dark cavern inhabited by a group of prisoners who are all bound hand and foot facing the same wall. The prisoners have been there since birth; they have grown up together, and this is the only reality that they know. Behind them is a burning fire maintained by the rulers of the cave. The rulers have different objects and puppets which they hold up so that the prisoners can see the shadows cast by the objects as they interrupt the light of the fire, and the rulers make sounds and generate echos for the prisoners to hear. These rulers of the cave are the puppet masters, able to control the reality which the prisoners are able to experience. As these shadows and sounds are all that the prisoners have experienced since birth, they do not question and do not know anything different from this shadow reality. They think that this is what life is, a reality of shadow, sound and echo. ...

One day, one of the prisoners gets loose. His chains break, and in a confused state he stands for the first time, looks around, and sees the fire. Lying on the ground next to the fire he sees the puppets and objects which correspond to the shadows on the wall. In a great leap of insight, he concludes that the shadows came from these objects, and that the puppets and fire represent a greater reality than that which he had previously known.

Feeling empowered and energized like never before, he begins to explore the cave, finds his way to the entrance, and leaves the shadowy fire-lit confines. The bright sun burns his eyes causing great pain, so he shields them with his hands. Gradually his eyes adjust to this new environment. He drops his hands and opens his eyes fully, seeing for the first time the greater world outside the cave. He sees color, sun, trees, animals, grass, mountains, and has yet another epiphany that he has become able to see the true nature of the world for the first time. The shadows had been mere surrogates of this greater truth. There was much more to life than he had ever imagined. Filled with joy over this new experience, he feels a wave of gratitude and awe as awareness dawns that he has become able to directly perceive the true nature of the real world.

Then he remembers his fellow prisoners, the people he had shared his entire life with. He pities them for being trapped in their limited understanding of reality, for their ignorance of the larger real truth which they are neither able to experience nor perceive. Overwhelmed with waves of pity, empathy, and anger at the puppet masters who have imprisoned and manipulated the reality of those that he has grown up and spent his entire life with, he returns to the cave determined to share what he has learned and help the prisoners see the larger reality, and to help free them from their bondage by the puppet masters.

The freed prisoner returns to the cave and his friends, hoping to enlighten and free them from their chains. But they cannot understand what he is saying and trying to do. He tries to explain the greater reality that he has seen and experienced, but they cannot even begin to understand what he is trying to describe. Imprisonment in the cave is the only reality they have ever known, and they cannot understand anything else. They notice that the eyes of the freed prisoner have changed due to exposure to the sun, and that he now has trouble seeing, naming and interpreting the shadows. The laugh at him, and all concerned agree that leaving the cave is a waste of time. They then threaten to kill both the escaped prisoner as well as anyone else who dares to break their bonds and leave the cave.

Americans have a fear-porn addiction, and it’s time for an intervention
Be it an epidemic, a ‘foreign adversary’, or apocalyptic climate change, the elites will always find a way to keep us scared

When I found out the Promised Safe (but not FDA Approved) vaccine that was only supposed to reproduce at the injection site was found in EVERY ORGAN of the autopsied bodies of dead COVID victims, I thought:

I took the first two injections. Wow, I'm fucked.

So, absolutely no Boosters for me. Ever.

My wife is sad because travel to Europe might require boosters. Too fucking bad. Plenty of places in the USA to visit.

First, some notes on normie psychology:

You have to understand that they think the vaccines are the best things ever. They believe Pfizer and Moderna have almost singlehandedly turned the whole pandemic around and given them their lives back. If ever a doubt should creep into their minds about that, they will fall back to believing that being vaccinated is the right pro-social thing to do, and that not being vaccinated is evil, selfish and stupid. ...

Contradictory information will make them extremely uncomfortable, and they’ll look for any reason at all not to believe it. If you cause them too much discomfort, they’ll get angry, tune you out, and put you in the antivaxxer bin, where you can be safely ignored.

It’s going to be very hard to win ground here, and your goal shouldn’t be total victory. You just want to get them to think for themselves, consider their own experiences as valid and real information about the world, and break out of the limited vaccinator-cult patterns of thought long enough to ponder how many boosters they really want to put up with.

The most important thing is to present a relaxed, jovial scepticism on key points. The goal is not to argue, but to challenge in an oblique, casual way, while giving as much as you take. Unless we’re talking about somebody who absolutely trusts you and is earnestly seeking your opinion, you shouldn’t be scheduling in-depth conversations or sitting down for a serious talk. You want to raise questions and plant little seeds of doubt, before they ever realise what is happening, and then you want to fade away before they notice that you’re encouraging them to have heretical thoughts.

I wish I could do this. I am way too angry to be able to do this. The freedoms we will lose because of the precedent that has been set is off the charts.

I had a patient yesterday wanting his 4th booster. Immune compromised with cancer reoccurrence, after remission for almost 4 years. When I told him we didn’t provide the 💉 I was called every name you can imagine. I discourage any booster & he left in a rage. They don’t see it.

They love the pandemic. They want it to go on forever. More pay, less work, lots of malingering and drama. The government class has never been richer or bigger.

The lockdowns were the best thing to happen to these people, and you're damned right they want it to go on forever.
