Sure. Let's just write off the single largest medical genocide in human history as a minor bump in the road. I call bullshit. Nazi concentration camp guards had to look over their shoulders for 70 years after WW II ended. How is collusion & criminal conspiracy between the USG, big pharma, big tech, the medical industrial complex & big media any different? They lied every step along the way, while coercing free individuals to inject themselves with a toxic poison. And everyone involved lined their pockets with billions. Our country ... civilization itself can not move on until we have properly dealt with this. Perp walks. Show trials. And the individuals responsible looking over their shoulders for the next 70 years. Our children & grandchildren deserve it.

Not missing that point at all. If we were this apathetic during WW II, you would be speaking German.

Not necessarily... look who brought the "field laboratory" ie. Nazi Germany to power? Good ole' English speaking folks right here in the USA. And look where 1,600 Nazi science officers went after the war? To the good ole' USA... and they either spoke English already or learned it quickly. [note, this comment was edited - see further down]

No Chester, the Bolsheviks are in charge. To know this, ask how Antifa/BLM fared in the media and the court system through their "mostly peaceful protests" of 2020 and early 2021.

Ask yourself who gets vilified more than anyone on earth. The answer is the National Socialists do, not the Bolsheviks. This is despite the fact that the Bolsheviks and their commie comrades have killed tens of millions more than anyone else ever did.

Hitler was a reaction to Bolshevism. If you don't want Hitler, then we'd better stop the Bolsheviks.

No, Voluntaryst - you have it wrong. The Anglo-Saxon alignment with the 4th Reich defeated the USSR 30 years ago and ever since set sights on the United States and the west. But one would have to know their history and be honest to understand the truth and then speak it.

Dang Joe...we are deeply kindred spirts! Just nailed IT...

Zero fricken accountability ANYwhere to be seen. In fact the very same "known" perps" who orchestrated it all are still in place doing so and many of them like Wollensky at the CDC has received significant "we the people" pay raises for doing such a wonderful job selling the great SCAMDEMIC. The lil elf fraud Fauci still spewing as well. Its astonishing how anyone can truly believe anything changes when the exact same people are in place and more brazen than ever and planning the next scamdemic.

You are absolutely correct. We cannot let this go. Those of us who stood against all this garbage have been ostracized and made to feel like we are persona non grata even in our churches which have gone WOKE. Whatever can be done to bring about accountability, it must be done.

Joseph, thank you for that. I thought I was one of only a few that comprehends what your saying. But I have studied Germany,in the 1930's, to the extent that I've read books by Shirer, Toland, and Spear, but nowadays no one wants to examine that history or any history for that matter. Not only the guards, but whole towns ignored the Holocost, ones that were next to Buchenwald, Auschwich, and Dachau. When Eisnhower forsed the citizens of those townsto look at the camps they feined horror and disbelief but they knew. The paralells of our government and those of Hitler and Stalin are freightening. And the Jewish people were'nt the only ones slaughtered. If you spoke against the party you were targeted, does anyone else see the similarity.

When family members ask me why I said no, even though it cost my job - I answer: I have natural immunity, which works better; they are not as safe as they say they are- especially when it comes to my children; and, ultimately, I have the right to say no. Freedom (religious freedom and other) gives me that right and it is important to stand up and say - freedom is important. Gradually, they seem to be coming around.

This post is truly disturbing, as it's a microcosm for everything that's happening in America these days. All of our institutions seem to be crumbling at once. The DOJ has been weaponized for political purposes, leftist ideologues and LGBTQ/Whatever (and I'm one of them, but not insane) are indoctrinating small schoolchildren, our election systems are completely non-transparent, we have a government accountable to no one. (Just look at this supposed "inflation reduction" bill that Manchin caved on. Absolutely no one, even in Congress, knows exactly what's in it. There's a small coterie of insiders running things, and democracy is out the window. The press openly lies to us and fails to ask basic questions of the rich and powerful. Government enlists large, tech corporations to pervert the first amendment. It's easier to get into the USA as an illegal immigrant than it is to return home from a foreign vacation. We're massively (MASSIVELY) in debt at all levels, and they just keep creating more. I could go on and on and on. It has all just turned to shit. I don't trust anything any more. This used to be a whacko position; now it seems like the only sensible one.

The Vioxx folks (Merck) hid the data about heart attacks and strokes and ended up paying a fine that was a fraction of what they made selling the drug, no jail for anyone. The Sacklers (Purdue Pharma) salted away a fortune in Switzerland and aren't going to jail either. Big Pharma is the actual entity served by the government bureaucracies, not the public. BTW, there are those who point out that there was an anomalous increase in mortality of about 100,000 people per year for the five years Vioxx was on the market, concentrated in the older population group that was the target for marketing Vioxx. That anomaly disappeared promptly when Vioxx was removed from the market. Coincidence?

Expand full comment

The government claimed Merck killed 50,000 with Vioxx. Merck copped to 4,000 and paid the fine ($4.5 billion). Assuming the Feds figure of 50,000 is correct, we now have an official estimation of how much the gov values an individual human life: $90,000. If that seems like a modest figure, remember that most of the victims were older and no longer economically productive. So Vioxx was something like Covid before Covid, culling the old and weak. If it had killed young, productive people (as do the mRNA shots), I'm sure that the feds would have sprung into action with fines and jail for those responsible [sarcasm alert].

Incorrect on both counts. The ChiCom virus was a bioweapon in development. Through Mengele Fauci and his illicit third party cut out funding, the work to take the bat coronavirus and see it attach easily to humans was a big success.

They were not complete on their work when the accident occurred in the Wuhan Lab. But it was problematic enough at that point in development to hinder and take out elderly suffering from underlying illnesses.

Additionally, among the high risk factors is obesity. That's why you were seeing certain urban area and states like Louisiana having a hell of a time with their hospitalizations and mortality rates. It didn't help that the entire medical establishment rigged the game so early treatments were frowned upon, think HCQ combination therapies and Ivermectin being the big two with fluvoxamine getting more ignored.

With the new ChiCom virus out, the goverment of China knew they had a problem. They simultaneously started lockdowns while pushing out travelers who arrived for the Chinese New Year out the door on to planes. This guaranteed an immediate widespread contamination across the globe. The ChiComs correctly concluded, if there was going to be a problematic virus, the entire world should reap it not only themselves.s

As for Scarf Lady, she's been in CYA mode for a while. Recall, she was the first to jump ship and get out after the 2020 election. Fauci is all over the place, thinking he can manage the problem leading back to him. Notice, he's back to pushing his Big Lie the ChiCom virus occurred naturally even without any evidence to support it. He's desperate to avoid this coming back to him as he illicitly funded continuing deveopment of the ChiCom bioweapon in 2014 when it was illegal to do so.

This seems to be the question on everyone's mind. I have yet to see an answer; we all sit here and yak at each other in our echo chambers (as refreshing as it is to find kindred spirits, it is not doing anything about anything). People like Alex have a bully pulpit (as much as many have fought to crush it). Somehow it has to be used better than it is, but I think in this long treatise Alex is expressing his frustration that what to do is unclear. The keepers of the keys know they have them and are not afraid to lock anyone away on any pretext.

I think most readers here are desperate for something they can DO (short of the Second Amendment which seems increasingly brilliant every day) to fix this. Alex has laid out why so many of the routes are just not there. Someone else here must have other ideas. We are all ears -- all of us.

Toby Rogers has been good at organizing resistance to the shots over at UTobian his substack. I've tried to be active because of things he's pointed out. So far not much success that WE know of. But not to lift a finger is wrong.

The prophecies of total and irreversible doom accomplish nothing. People here talk about "mass formation psychosis" as if it's all the vaxxers who succumbed but I think we who opposed the shots can fall prey to the same thing: "oh THEY have total control, it's the end, no use, give it up." And that's a success for the bullies.

I am agreeing with you by the way. I am not gifted at organizing but neither am I afraid to send messages to congressmen and public health officials. I'll do what I can while I can and when a movement starts I'll be there .

Honestly, if you could get 1000 people per congressional district to call both their senators and congressmen on any given day, that would probably do it. It'd jam up the phone lines and every staffer would be talking about the same thing. I like to think that the representatives would not be able to ignore this.

Personally, I'm so outraged about so many things, that it's very hard to pick a single topic to call on. Then I don't call and feel disgusted with myself.

Every time I try to be the messenger for truth with family & friends I alienate more from our lives.

Expand full comment

It's the fact that people don't even WANT to hear an alternative point of view that's so disheartening. I feel the same way. I have a lot of friends who are just in this closed-loop bubble where the government's response to covid was safe, sensible, and praiseworthy. Even though the program that developed the vaccines was called "Warp Speed," people are unwilling to even consider that these things were developed in record time and never received the testing that any other vaccine would receive. They've swallowed the BS, hook line and sinker. Sad!

I have family who think I'm nuts to refuse the shots. One in particular says she doesn't want to know more about them. I'm so torn: want to tell her about the IgG4 activation by the boosters but she'll get so pissed at me. Because she's taken them and doesn't want to hear bad news. This is the basic problem. 70% of Americans took the bait. How many want the truth?

Expand full comment

I try not to make people feel bad about the shots they've already taken. After all, there's no going back. I myself got the first pfizer shot and have mixed feelings about it. I got Delta last summer, and to this day wonder how it would have gone without the shot. It wasn't bad, but I did feel sick for a week, and am still dealing with some loss of smell. But I'm not getting any more covid shots. Aside from what Alex's readers already know, Toby Rogers wrote a truly frightening piece on his substack noting that the FDA isn't even going to require a clinical test for the reformulated covid shots. OMG!

When I talk to folks I point out the dangers of the boosters. And I always note that the vaccines were developed for a now-extinct strain, and point out the fact that there's ZERO clinical research saying that the current vax does anything at all to reduce severity of symptoms. Omicron is much milder than the original "wild type" strain, and in my view, that's probably much more likely the reason for lower hospitalizations and deaths, not the vax.

(see Joe Manchin's latest action if you think Democrats ever act independently of their union/green/socialist base). Would Trump investigate and clean house when he backed operation Warp Speed? Dont think so. The only presidential candidate I trust is Gov Ron Desantis. But we have the ability to vet congressional and legislative candidates and gubenatorial candidates. At the state level, policies like ending vaccine mandates for government employees, schools, colleges and universities, that needs to be a screening question for candidates. Also for local candidates. Parts of the system still function; elected in 2021 Virginia Attorney General Miaryes ruled colleges and universities cannot mandate boosters. Many states and localities have elections this year.

On the plus side, most people now seem to know they’ve been lying and have moved on at this point. Only a minority are dumb enough to get more shots. So the damage they have done already will hopefully not be compounded in the future. If the long term effects from only getting a couple of shots diminish without continually getting new ones, hopefully the overall long term damage will not be too serious. Hate to gloat but I’m really happy I never took the bait. Thanks Alex for providing the info needed to maintain the resolve to never get one of the jabs.

Except young people who want to go to nursing school, medical school , Med tech etc. or into the military ( or even a study abroad program) are still being FORCED to take these shots , even knowing that they don’t do anything to keep you from getting Covid.

I was shocked-- but very pleased--to read that Princeton will no longer require students get booster shots. [Of course, they could change their policy at any time, and I wouldn't be surprised if they do.] Perhaps other "woke" institutions will follow suit. It's amazing what Princeton is admitting here:

"Of the full list of updates below, the most significant policy change is that boosters will no longer be mandated. The primary vaccination series continues to be understood in the scientific community as both protecting the individual and protecting the community. Over the past few months, data suggest that the boosters do protect the individual, but do not significantly curb transmission of the current prevalent COVID variants. The University will continue to monitor the profile of the disease and the efficacy and availability of new boosters and may mandate boosters again in the future if public health circumstances and benefits warrant it.

The second significant change is that participating in the asymptomatic testing program is no longer required. Students and employees are asked to voluntarily continue testing monthly to help the University monitor variants circulating on campus and community spread to inform our strategies.

We also have changed our Visitor Policy

to eliminate the proof of attestation requirement for visitors to campus. Visitors are still expected to be either vaccinated, have recently received a negative test, or agree to wear a face mask whenever indoors. Conveners of meetings and hosts may continue to ask for proof of vaccine or attestations, but they are no longer required."

It's worth thinking about that quite carefully. Placebo effect has to be so carefully controlled for, yet is supposedly the magical healing qualities of positive thinking. And, nobody seems especially curious about how that effect actually works, even though it would appear to be rather important!

That seems crazy to me. Side effects shouldn't be sufficiently debilitating or damaging to unblind participants, because if they are then the drug should fail the clinical trial and never be brought to market.

The bottom line is expecting our government to change course is delusional. Our problem has been building for decades as witnessed though the destruction of California and New York. The COVID pandemic was planned and executed using a well funded group of powerful global leaders indoctrinated by the WEF in an effort to save the planet for themselves. Their main tool is instilling FEAR into the masses to sow confusion and the pandemic was the perfect platform to begin accelerating the process, as they have stated. Add to that lawlessness, a war, inflation, and even screaming about the coming food shortage which they are also orchestrating as part of their plan. They are warning of food shortages now while food is still available to condition the masses to accept them once their plan has been enacted. Matt Ridley's "The Rational Optimist" warns that one of the only things that can stop human progress is if the entire world makes the same mistake all at once. We are in the process of making good on his prediction.

It could be the MRNA vaccines causing this increase in all-cause mortality around the world. But it could also be the (un)intended consequences of the lockdowns and mask mandates. So many potential deaths of despair. People just checking out from this new miserable world.

Lot of deaths happening recently caused by ‘suddenly’. Suddenly stopped breathing, unexpectedly lying dead in bed one morning, and a pandemic of heart attacks, strokes and blood clots. None of these are caused by lockdowns nor are they ‘deaths of despair’. They are also *not* long covid.

Yea but do those sudden deaths constitute the 10-15% increase.

This is the correct question and also the way to find accountability. The public health authorities have been leading public policy for two years and it has resulted in increasing excess deaths. We need congress to have public healings on the complete failure of the health departments. If the CDC, FDA, or NIH wants to throw Pfizer or any of the other groups under the bus, so be it. The focus on the vaccines is a trap.

Alex has turned his attention to risk of harm from the mRNA injections. His prior focus was on lack of efficacy. Did this change coincide with recent outreach by Steve Kirsch and the discussion between Alex and Pierre Kory? I appreciate that Alex is treading carefully here. I didn't listen to that discussion, but I gathered from descriptions that Alex was incredulous about mRNA injections causing death. I can't help but speculate as to the above that Alex has drilled down on the available data. I gather Alex is someone who can't be told but has to do the work on his own. Of course I could be entirely wrong here.

Alex was writing about adverse effects from the mRNA injections from the very beginning. Side effects were always common among the recently jabbed. Only later we got enough data that showed the shots were much less effective than 95-96% touted by the authorities.

Fair enough. Such as this from Dec. 2021 https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/all-cause-mortality-in-germany-is/comments

But I think he hasn't been convinced about magnitude of excess deaths coinciding with injection and boosting.
