An Australian reader explains the near-total blackout on real news Down Under - and how government-fed media propaganda has turned elections there inside out.
Alex! I am a US citizen and elderly. We (husband and I) have elected not to take vaccine. We continue to stay informed by reading your information and others. Keep it coming. Pertaining to this subject matter of the elderly being super afraid, I can testify that, in my circle, we are loners. Most have taken vaccine and are quick to admonish us for not taking it.
Same here! I am in my 60s and was diagnosed with a rare lung condition (on oxygen) before the virus but saw through this whole scam from the beginning. My neighbors are scared of me because I refuse to get the clot shot. There is info that this vaccine can cause pulmonary hypertension which is what I have! Why would I take something voluntarily that could make me worse???
Thank you, Alex, for your reporting from the beginning! I have followed you on Tucker and heard you on talk radio. Thank you for searching out the info and having the guts to publish it despite all the guff you take!
Exactly. Years ago, an oncologist desperately wanted me to sign up for clinical trial. So I listened not wanting to be rude. I asked him to tell me truthfully the side effects. He did. Yikes. I told him I had none of those conditions and thus why would I want to take a chance getting sick? He nodded. He said in order to stop your cancer. Can you guarantee that for me? Nope. I said thank you no. I made it about 25 years before another bout.
Same here; my husband and I are in our 70’s, not vaxxed, and I only have just a few friends who haven’t been vaxxed. So many other friends, neighbors and family telling us we need to get vaxxed.
I am not vaxxed and not getting it, but I pressured my parents, in their 70’s to get it early. I gravely regret that. It slowed my Dad down a lot (and he wasn’t slowed down before the vaccine). I fear it impacted him negatively as his energy and oxygen levels remain suppressed all these months later. 💔😢
Around April of this year my kids (and their friends) were calling me and emailing and texting me begging me to get jabbed.
I am healthy and 71 and a retired RN. I do all the FLCCC preventative protocols and finally convinced everyone to leave me in peace when they had to admit that the worst number one adverse reaction of the jabs is death.
I convinced them to let me finish my life on my own terms.
Look at trying to find the supplement NAC for him. It may be hard to since the frigging FDA is trying to pull it off the shelves so I have been buying it every time I find it but I am reading a lot of studies showing that's helping the lungs for both covid and the shot's side effects.
I buy from nutricost.com. Those with COPD find it helps reduce mucus and coughing. Always used Amazon and had it delivered by subscription for many years - until the FDA scared them. The FDA wants to regulate NAC as a drug rather than a supplement. It's widely used in hospitals for acetaminophen overdose.
I also the same; i convinced my husband not to take it and my children have not although my son in law had one shot and thinks everything i say is crazy. He actually rolls his eyes and laughs if i give him a statistic and refutes everything no matter the facts shown to him. Friends who have run to take their 3rd shot tell my husband that he should do something about me because i will get everyone sick by continuing my ‘conspiracy theories’. It makes me actually very sad to hear and see this, how intelligent people have so bought into this and cannot see through it; it really baffles me and depresses me a lot.
The Promise of a Return to Normal is a very effective enticement to get vaxxed....unfortunately the opposite is happening ! Ask if a "show your papers" society is Normal; it isn't here in America. Vaxxed or Unvaxxed , we do not want what they are planning going forward !!
Sandra, no matter what those "friends" say. I am over here cheering you on! I'm in a very blue area and it's crazy (lots of people driving with masks on alone). I can tell you that a lot of the elites and the famous ones are not jabbed or distancing or depriving themselves of social interaction. Their children are not wearing masks anywhere (God bless them)! They are taking care of themselves and their own!
Sandra, you are the smart one and you’ve done your research. I’ve seen too much that I cannot unsee. I will not get the to get the vax because it’s not safe. For your son in law to dismiss you and roll his eyes just shows he’s not paying attention, and frankly he’s quite rude.
My dad is a healthy 79 year old and has chosen to skip the vaccine (in his words - I've never gotten a flu shot, why should I bother with this one?). My mom was scared and got it ("They tell me if I get it I'll die!").
I’m in my 60’s and my husband is 74. We are unvaxxed as well. My husband had a severe reaction to the flu shot before so there’s no way he’s taking this experimental shot. Most everyone we know has had it. My brother has gone over to the dark side and is for all these mandates and restrictions. He’s lost all common sense. I now call him comrade.
Already I know of two who ran to take the booster, and another who had Covid19 then got the jab resulting in a stroke. I would add that OAN news station is more informative all the rest.
Have you checked your vitamin d? I have decided not to take the vaccine (I am 33, but my bmi is 30), but I have supplemented my vitamin d level to 60 ng/ml and I take zink, quercetin and omega 3 oil.
Considering how leaky this is I don’t blame you!!!! At this point I’m shocked the focus isn’t on monoclonal antibodies and other early treatment. As much as people make fun of it, and it does make me laugh, I’m also encouraged things like providone-iodine nasal spray and gargling mouthwash actually appear to reduce viral replication early on in the nose snd throat.
It’s your choice. You are the ones who have to deal with the outcomes. Conveying data to people (honest data - not manipulated to support a narrative by misrepresenting the data) is fine. But passing moral judgement on the decisions of others in this case is just weird and based in ideology.
There was also a study done on xclear nasal spray and how it deactivates covid in the nasal cavity. We’ve used the product for a long time and I was surprised to see the study hanging on our pediatrician’s wall.
That is awesome that your pediatrician posted it!!!! We have like 8 bottles - and we added povidone-iodine to a bottle for each of us for after after attending crowded indoor events (we didn't put the iodine in the kids' bottles, just ours). I'm not necessarily trying to avoid the virus, but I'd like to reduce the viral load where possible.
Our pediatrician is the best! He was in a big, local practice and all patients that weren’t fully vaxxed we’re getting kicked out. He left and opened his own practice. All of us followed and his practice has exploded. They have about 8 pediatricians now and completely support alternative treatments and supplements. I also just found out that two of the doctors in the practice are prescribing iver for kids with covid (if needed). We are very blessed. Quick question, I recently purchased a bottle of Lugol’s Iodine, would you add a drop of that to the bottle? And what exactly does that do?
There is a formula for the iodine for nasal spray - I think 1/2 teaspoon for an Xlear bottle (look it up though to check me). It kills the virus in the nasal passages thereby reducing replication there. Mouth wash does the same for the throat. Check out Swiss Policy Research.
My husband and I go to an integrative med practice that is also exploding too. We are hoping our pediatrician goes at some point - he is far better suited to that type of package than the one he is at, and we know his family well enough to know where they fall on all of that stuff. Child vaccine mandates for Covid may be what pushes him over the edge.
I believe low interest in origin of the virus is because we all know it came from the Wuhan Lab. I'd like to see more on what we are going to do about it.
Yea that plus there's zero chance of anything done about it in our lifetimes even if you had all the evidence in the world. A bit like Saudi Arabia's involvement in 9/11...
And, we can never know the truth since China will NEVER ever admit it nor allow the third party to investigate in Wuhan. American politicians.. do under estimate the Chinese communist party. If you think they regard life as we do, you are mistaken. Life means nothing to them. They will kill you if you step out of line without even thinking. Americans assume every human being has at least a shred of humanity... but, they don't. They give you chill.. if you have ever gone and experienced how it is like there with communist party. These are people who treat Uyghur like slaves.. torture and kill them as they please, forcefully harvest organs from living human being without their consent. As for Australians, they probably regret giving up their guns now?
I think the WuFlu is a distraction from the opportunity to roll out the hi-tech toys. This may have been a perfect storm. I hate to involve politics but Trump as President may have moved up the rollout date of the Future. He created a Schism and they were aiming for Docile. (For the record I feel all politicians are in it for the take - who goes into politics for the betterment of mankind? Nope. And it is becoming dynastic - Bush Family, Cuomos, Trumps, and now young Giuliani wants a piece? It's called Entropy.). This Plan was being put in place since the 1980's. It could have been an accidental leak, or it could have been a planned leak, but out it goes into Mankind! Qui bono? Pharma, Tech, Biotech; ancillary - property, fuel, basic groceries, staffing, wfh furniture, food delivery, and anything else you now use that you never would have thought of using 2 years ago. I am sad that Youtube is purging the truth speakers, please visit WhatsHerFace https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LAMuhgzXLs before she gets jetted off, Russell Brand too, and visit Mercola (used to be an awesome alt med source, now has become front line resistance) https://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2021/09/29/my-response-to-youtube-banning-my-account.aspx before they finally take him down. Can't believe this is happening in my lifetime. I was very hesitant about the vax, but the propaganda and media bias and censorship signaled that it is not about health. Never was. It is about control. I recommend getting a shortwave radio. Sooner or later, you and your opinions will not be permitted on the www.
Thank you ejsmith for being more eloquent than my stream of consciousness blather. Definitely Trump was a "spanner in the works". Thanks for the info on sw radio stations. I need to look into these. I know I need an FCC license to speak, but when hell breaks loose, who will care.
I believe China entered the WTO on 9/12/01? I remember that mentioned at the time. We were not able to digest news obviously. 9/11 is another thread for another time. But the footers for today were being put in place, in hindsight.
Arkansas now recognizes antibodies as immunity, and the scientific community is questioning Biden's 97% approach. So maybe the tide is starting to turn. Hold the line as long as you can. Both you and your good wife. I am in the same boat, face losing my home and job. Find me in Florida!
You are one of the few commenters I've seen in the past year+ who gets it. All this was conceived long ago:
Advanced forms of biological warfare that can target "specific genotypes may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool." page 60
Never thought about it this way but his is the truth. My father in law who is accountant and a republican, is big supporter of the vaccine and the lockdowns. I can't believe it honestly. But he is 65 and close to being obese. So the virus is dangerous to him. And I guess he has a big fear of dying. Typical boomer. He has lived a great life and probably should focus on his grandson not growing up in a 1984/brave new world. But I guess he wants to keep playing golf and fish. But I guess that is the way of today world. A whole generation afraid of death even when they have lived a healthy 60+ years. Sacrifice the young so I can keep living my blessed life. Just pure selfishness in today's society.
That would bring out the savage in me. My parents are in their early 80s. They never tried to coronabro us or anyone else. Whenever kids or grandkids want to visit, we’re welcome. They love going out to eat. My mother even flew alone last fall to visit her sister in AZ. They’ve had COVID, of course. I think living normally is a factor in survival.
Please know that all of us "boomers" are not "typical." And your comment is slightly smug, though I think you meant no offense. I am a fit almost-60 y.o. who takes care of myself, and THAT, not necessarily age, is where I see the line being drawn. So many people eat nothing but crap, never exercise, guzzle gallons of soft drinks, and want the "vaccine" to save them. I'd love to see more people, "boomers" AND young, take more responsibility for their own health.
Sorry it was smug. I am sure there are tons of boomers who are fit and not vaxed. Or they are fit and vaxed. If my father in law actually lost like 50 pounds and focused on his health and he was vaxed, I wouldn't have a problem with it. But he drinks wine every night, golfs every day and fishes on the weekend. And he wants to lecture me about getting the vaccine. It just has gotten heated bc I'm my own man.
I am frustrated by so much about the conversation around Covid, but perhaps the MOST frustrating piece is how assuming responsibility for your general health through diet, exercise, supplements and sun exposure has been not only ignored, but actively suppressed. Now "responsible" is defined as "take the damn shot!"
My coworker says a patient’s stay in ICU could’ve been avoided because we have a “free” shot and anyone who doesn’t get it is putting her life and her grandkids life in danger!!
Understood. And thank you for taking the time to reply. Yes, the lectures are reeaally hard to take. From my 87-year-old mom: "This would all be over now if everyone would just get vaccinated." Aargh.
I have to disagree, in part. I am a “boomer” born in 1946. I worry about my children and grandchildren. I’m not Vaxxed and in good health. I don’t want it. I am not afraid of dying, I just don’t want to be there when it happens.
I’ll second that emotion! I don’t have grandkids yet (born in 63). I worry all the time about my Daughter and my friends kids and grandkids. I used to be afraid of dying but not anymore. I’m choosing to live life to the fullest now while I still can, because I can’t imagine living a life where my every move will be controlled.
I would have to disagree. I’m a baby boomer and almost everyone I’ve talked to in my age group are in this fight (vaccinated and untaxed). We are the second to last generation that still remembers true patriotism. My observation has been the younger and elderly have been the ones to most fall for all the propaganda
When my mom was in her 30s-40s always said if a tornado is coming she would just sleep through it. Also does not want to ever be intubated. Very leftist and hates big business and billionaires. NOW, vaxxed and taking the booster. Doesn’t want to die of Covid. I tried to warn her and my dad about lack of accountability, benefit to Big Pharma, how the clot shot works, how it was funded, lab origins, people dying of adverse effects, all to no avail. My dad says it’s like chicken soup, it can’t hurt. Their Dr. pushes it and they Google any of my claims and find out it’s all been debunked. I just said, don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Exactly, but that’s all my parents know and they don’t understand what I mean by search algorithms. I brought up Dr. Peter McCullough and the first thing it says is he was fired from Baylor for using their name. I mentioned Dr. Robert Malone and the search beings up his interview with Steve Bannon who might as well be Trump in their eyes. I tell them about VAERS and how many people of died, and the search brings up that there have been no deaths linked to the V. And of course of you try to search for VAERS results you will not see the current count. It’s so frustrating! They won’t ever see the truth of what is happening because of the censorship.
I'm a boomer, obese and diabetic. The panic-mongering worked on me, for a while. I self-isolated from late May until mid October last year. But I
*never* thought everyone should be locked down. I spent a lot of time reading up, realized I'd been had. I had been hoping the vaccines would be a good solution, I was just in a wait and see attitude. Well, I've seen more than enough - no damn way! I'm going to trust the *real* doctors treating *real* patients. I *know* what to do about covid-19, I have no idea what to do if the vaxx goes south on me.
It's definitely a specific demographic of boomers. In California it's all the rich ones that live in the million dollar houses in my area. My parents are boomers and they don't act like nuts.
None of my business, but does that last sentence mean that you took the jab and are worried about it. Again, none of my business. and you can tell me so.
As a Boomer, I have to say I'm ashamed of my generation. For a group of people who started our adult lives protesting against "the machine", we sure have become the cogs in its wheels. Sad.
True with any group of people. However, I can only do an extrapolation from my own circle of friends. And the numbers don't seem to be supportive of the majority of Boomers being anything but self-serving.
It’s so true! I email vetted info to my boomer friends (I’m one as well) and no response except from the non-country club group. Those in the country clubs, even the conservatives, thank me for being so involved but think they’re above getting involved. “It’s just not right to talk about politics or religion”. I plead with them to just share information but they’d rather golf and drink their wine at night and chat about how the world has gone to crap, not even realizing they could make a difference.
I'm a woman and it seems to me that despite an overwhelmingly crowded field of would-be tyrants vying for the authoritarian brass ring throughout the ongoing scamdemic, the most vicious authoritarians have all been women. Then I remember Hillary saying something about women making better leaders and I laugh and laugh...
Cheer Up People, According to recent polling the Dems/Leftists are hook ,line and sinker sucking down vaccines faster than they can make boosters so maybe by election 2022 ,there will really be more of us then them ! Just saying!
Alex, I’m also from Australia, my wife and I are both health professionals, ages 75, and we won’t get the jab even though it will drastically curtail our lifestyle. We have travelled internationally every year. That is all gone unless a miracle happens.
The big problem is that most doctors, and mainly the young ones, have bought into this vaccination fiasco, even rushing to get their kids jabbed. They have no critical thinking; they operate based on protocols. As Dr Peter McCullough says, they are “in a trance”. They don’t even understand the basic science of virology. Ultimately, the only victims in this debacle are members of the public.
If I could leave Australia, I would do so in a heartbeat. This is not the country that I came to 41 years ago. The “lucky country” which was a term coined in a 1960’s book about Australia, is no more. Our luck has run out.
I'm so sorry you are going through this down there. The only hope I hold on to is that I don't see how it id physically possible to keep this insanity going indefinitely. I understand the terrifying of the older voting bloc, but the younger people I met in Australia were independent as hell and I have to believe that they will push back at some point. I really wish you well. I truly love your country, or at least what it used to be.
There is a lot to like about Australia but when the government does everything it can to coerce you to get the injection, it flies in the face of respect for bodily autonomy. What is so irrational is that the jabs are ineffective and daily we are seeing and hearing about adverse events. Post injection deaths, strokes, myocarditis, tremors, it’s all happening. It’s shameful that as a country we tolerate this form of chemical lethality.
Strength in numbers is the only way to overcome this right now Ely. From our point of view in the USA it seems like the most success has come from the construction workers protesting. So perhaps every concerned citizen leaving their house at the same moment, then proceeding to their local 'leadership's' front door and banging on it to drag them outside (nicely of course) is probably a good first step. From the videos I've seen, you cannot even step outside without a mask or visit a beach without getting your asses beaten by the police. Strength in numbers.
Luckily I live in Western Australia. Our borders are shut to Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. We are so isolated…we have 2.6 million people in a state 1/3 the size of the USA. We have had 4 previous lockdowns. If we get two cases that is considered an “outbreak”. This is psychosis. I do have properties in Texas, luckiky I have other people, including friends to handle things,
Nope. You can only get a special permit for work overseas and only if you’ve been “vaccinated”. Plus most airlines like Qantas require a vaccine certicate. No we’re stuck.
Because they don’t want you to come back in with the virus. My ex son-in-law works overseas (got a special permit), has been “vaccinated”, yet still has to quarantine for two weeks when he returns. Doesn’t the jab work. Of course we know that it doesn’t and that is the whole hysteria surrounding these political and bureaucratic thugs.
We only have one or two brave political souls like Member of Parliament, Craig Kelly. He should get a Nobel Prize. https://youtu.be/3J-NyIxXL5w
That is awful! Such totalitarian BS! You are all going to have to unite and fight it. Start local. A small group of determined citizens can make a difference.
I listened to Joe Rogan interviewing Amanda Knox the other day. I thought it was interesting for a number of reasons but one thing stood out to me. They had a brief discussion about Covid and the vaccine and Knox commented about how vaccines just give you a small dose of a dead virus to induce an immune response. Rogan said "not this vaccine." And Knox was sort of stunned. She had no idea that this vaccine worked any differently than any other vaccine.
It wasn't until I heard her say that that it occurred to me that I bet MOST people think this vaccine is just like all the other vaccines that most of us have been given. So of course, it doesn't make sense to most people why so many others would resist taking the vaccine. Most people think that this vaccine is just as safe as all the vaccines most of us have taken our whole lives - and that it will stop the spread of the virus - just like the measles vaccine stops the spread of measles.
Once you understand that most of the public is so misled about this vaccine then you can understand their anger at the unvaccinated and the public's tolerance of things like vaccine passports and mandates.
If you're correct and that is most people's understanding, then the next question a thinking person who is simply misinformed would ask: If my vaccine protects me, then why do I care if my neighbor isn't vaccinated? I've never had to worry about that before. Hmmm
Well, first, most people don't think much about it. And if they do, there are all sorts of examples in the past where public health authorities insisted that everyone get vaccinated to protect those who can't get the vaccine. I remember that happening with measles a few years ago.
What is interesting is that the MMR vaccine does prevent most transmission - even though measles is the most contagious virus that we know of. What is also interesting is that the CDC lists a long list of people who shouldn't get the MMR shot:
People with allergies, pregnant women, people with weakened immune systems, people have a close relative with immune problems, people with any condition that causes them to bleed or bruise easily, people who have had a blood transfusion, people who have gotten other vaccines within a month, and anyone who "isn't feeling well."
Now here is the list of people who shouldn't get the Covid vaccine:
People who have had a severe allergic reaction to the specific ingredients in the vaccine.
Yes, they don’t understand it’s genetic engineering. They also don’t understand what the spike protein does to your capillaries. News flash! Most doctors don’t either.
I am not sure it is correct to call it genetic engineering. But one thing is for sure, we have never had a vaccine that told our own bodies to produce the toxin. There is little doubt that we cannot possibly know the long term consequences. Maybe everything will be fine. Who knows? Is that a gamble that you would take with your children?
It is genetic engineering because the mRNA injections contain billions of Messenger RNA encased in a nanoparticle. In the body, the RNA is released then directs your DNA to produce the spike protein.
The other Covid vaccines are DNA based and get the body to produce the Messenger RNA which go into the ribosomes of the cells where the spike protein is produced. Either way it is genetic manipulation.
There is some evidence that some of the genetic components get integrated into one’s DNA. Normally with vaccines, the whole virus is killed (attenuated) and the body produces an immune response to that.
Personally, I think manufacturing a non-natural spike protein is a good way to become variant factory. In a way, we all could be, but this seems dangerous.
The measles vaccine doesn't work either. Doctors just call it other things like roseola.
We've been lied to about every disease in history and the medical response to it.
The difference between measles et al and covid is that doctors play the gatekeeping role in the diagnosis or testing of every other disease so it appears as though the vaccines for them work. That is, doctors typically refuse to diagnose or test for the disease if the patient is vaccinated - so the diseases just get renamed.
With covid - for the first time in history - patients decide if they get a test or not and the doctor gatekeeping role is minor (except in hospital).
That's why the data for covid has a strange phenomena whereby it looks as though it prevents hospitalizations but is useless at preventing cases.
In reality it prevents nothing - like every other vaccine.
Partly true. Smallpox, which had a fatality rate of 30% was greatly reduced by vaccination. The death rates from illnesses like measles diminished greatly during the 20th century before the vaccine was ever launched. Public health and sanitation has been the biggest difference.
Look up "variola minor mortality rates" and then do an image search for monkeypox.
Smallpox absolutely did not have a 30 percent mortality rate. Its mortality rate was whatever doctors wanted it to be depending on which narrative they were going for.
The 30 percent figure was used for arguing in front of judges to justify compulsory vaccination. The 1 percent figure (blamed on a made up notion of two types of smallpox (remember it's not like they had laboratory testing in the 19th century)) was used to explain away real world cases of villages/towns having "outbreaks" of smallpox with zero fatalities.
You're right about mortality from measles, pertussis etc falling (according to official data) before their vaccines but it's even worse than that because the official data doesn't account for the fact the diseases have been renamed since their vaccines.
I'm not ignoring you by not responding or looking things up, but I do have to get on with my day. It is morning and the start of a new day. I still work, even at my age.
The mainstream media is acting as the propaganda arm of the government/Democrat Party. Fortunately it is still possible to get accurate information via the Internet. It is possible to go around the Big Tech companies that are doing what they can to suppress discussion and information sharing. Thankfully content producers and providers, and investigators such as Alex Berenson are able to create their own platforms to get the information out.
I try to stay informed. It is frightening to realize how the LIE quickly permeates the public consciousness and crowds out any consideration for TRUTH or even skepticism.
There is a reason that many people who subscribe to your Substack feed are not particularly interested in the origins of the virus. It is because many/most of us believe the virus escaped from the Wuhan Virology Lab. Many of us believe Dr. Fauci authorized the research at the Wuhan Lab and found a way to fund it directly through the NIH budget and possibly with grants as well.
Naomi Wolf was interviewed by Tucker Carlson on Foxnation.com. She described how her husband, an investigator, discovered primary source material that the original gain of function research began at UNC. When it became public, it was moved to Wuhan because that kind of research is illegal in the USA.
The interview with Naomi Wolf was fantastic on Fox Nation with Tucker Carlson. I signed up recently just to hear Tucker's long interviews, which are just like podcasts. Thank goodness for people like Naomi and of course the handful of others like Alex, Tucker, etc.
Naomi,I agree with you about interest in the origins of the Wuhan virus.I think most of us on this Substack believe we already know exactly who,what,where,when and how as to the Wuhan virus and the pandemic as you succinctly stated,and furthermore,that no definitive inquiry into it is going to be completed anytime soon,and therefore,better to concentrate on vaccine mandates and so forth…
The weekend before St. Patrick’s Day this year, our father (to me and my 4 siblings, all in our late 50’s - early 60’s, who are not ‘anti-vaxxers’ in general, only to this EUA madness and rush to judgement vaccination government protocol) received the 2nd dose of Moderna mRNA shot.
He was 87yrs strong and from my understanding the second jab is the more ‘toxic’ shot than the first. After the first shot in the arm he had relatively no side effects, other than a soreness around the injection site of his arm and he slept quite a bit more afterward.
Approximately one week before his second shot, he scheduled a physical exam with his doctor just to be sure he was in good health to receive the 2nd shot. Doc gave him a clean bill of health and approval to get the jab.
He rec’d his 2nd shot on a Saturday and on the following Monday a picture came to my phone... something did not look right with his eyes, the iris and pupil were very dark and hard to differentiate, almost as if they had congealed and blended. It was strange and I discerned a not-so- healthy disposition in his facial appearance. But, putting the thot aside, I reasoned that perhaps it was a bad picture day and did not think much more of it. Only to purpose and get to him sooner than later for a visit. So I cleared my schedule to make a visit on Weds, St Pat’s Day.
He was fine! The clarity in his eyes came back, his appearance was good and he stated he was feeling well, other than the soreness in the arm and more sleepish-ness than normal. He even gave us a limerick that my sweetheart dutifully captured on video that fine day for the family to enjoy.
Dad loved a good limerick and would repeat it as many times as he would be asked if it still carried a hint of interest or laughter, even from the most cynical crowd. He was always presenting humor within our fragmented family and gatherings just to feather the edges of discord or make light of a particularly uncomfortable conversation.
An avid WWII History buff, most everyone gained from his ability to blend humor into social circles just to keep conversations from going to the outer fringes of bullshit. He was an artist in this way and we all loved him for it…but I digress.
The following Monday morning the call that you don’t want to receive, came... “Your father has passed. He was found in the bathroom, apparently having been in the midst of throwing-up early in the AM.”
Prior to removing his body, my brother pulled back the sheet to observe dad and quickly recovered his face. He turned to me and said, “If you have a good memory of Dad, you don’t want to look!”
We all know dead bodies are not for the faint of heart or feeble-minded to observe (of which I am neither and maintain a fairly strong stomach for such images) in general. No one else in the room held their curiosity after that statement!
My brother told us sib’s later that of the few deaths he has been present to observe, this was by far the most haunting to him.
I believe with every fiber of my being that this 2nd shot killed Dad. Both the first responder EMT’s and the physician of record stated that an autopsy was not warranted! That the cause of death was most likely related to a cardio-pulmonary event while heaving in the bathroom… even in the middle of a pandemic and being within the incubation period of 7-10 days for the spike protein to work its magic in the body after the jab. No autopsy required unless their is suspicion of foul play!
Foul play, foul play… Should we not be paying closer attention to effects of morbidity especially within several days of receiving a very contradictory vaccine? Have our checks and balances on medical procedures gone full-tilt!?
Officially we will never know IF the mother-of-all-jabs wreaked havoc within his body and vital organs.
We will never know the actual cause of death and whether the vaccine had anything to do with it. This will be recorded as a foreseeable and normal expiration by virtue of age… wow!
Have we lost all sense to the sacred essence of life? Good lord, where are we headed!?
I am so sorry for your loss of your wonderful father. I had a similar experience with my 95 year old mom. She was incredibly sharp but had understandable health issues at that age. Her caregivers and my husband and I all thought she'd make it past 100. I begged her to consider getting double vaxxed. Or at least wait until the CA lockdown was relaxed enough so I could be with her. But my mom was a very strong willed old-school liberal and she thought getting vaxxed was the right thing to do so we could all return to normal. She did it believing Fauci and believing it was her duty and for that I'll never forgive these liars. No problem with the first shot except a sore arm. A few days after the second shot she called me at 4 am to tell me she'd become disoriented, fallen out of bed and gashed herself and lost a lot of blood. That wasn't like my mom. She passed away in July. I hate these people who fed my mom lies. I hate them for not telling her the dangers. I hate them when they tell me she was 95 anyway - she was my mom, not their experimental property. I've grieved and raged for the last two months.
That's my nightmare. My Dad was talked into Pfizer series bu others (I think I hate them). I took him because it was his decision but I did try to talk him out of it. I even stayed up all night refreshing websites to get him on a list, God help me. First shot, he slept a lot after and insisted he was fine. He wasn't. Second shot, he was so weak before, still suffering from the first shot. I had to hold him up. Now he's at the stage, where, if he falls, he can't get up--at all. We're having handholds put up, etc. but I am so angry and am horrified that people will start talking him into the third doomshot.
Michael, I'm with you albeit a few years younger. I remain unvaxxed and plan to remain that way. I've always been a bit of a hermit though and don't have much of a crowd around me to share stories or news with so it's difficult to judge the temperature of the crowd.
If she’s like my MSNBC mom and dad, she wouldn’t believe you even if you gave her studies and other info about ivermectin and adverse events. My folks said it sounds like some drama queens wanting attention when I sent them to the official VAERS site that lists the actual reports. Unfortunately the day I sent them the link it was mostly sore arms that come up. I’ve seen much more serious ones however and of course they wouldn’t watch the FDA meeting clip from September 17th featuring Dr Jessica Rose and Steven Hirsch.
This was another topic that I wanted to mention for Alex to cover here, the protests against any & all mandates in other countries. I have been seeing from other sources that protests have been going on in France for 2 months every weekend and they don't get covered. Also, many other European countries have been holding mandate protests with only scant coverage via social media folks who have access to videos and sizes of the protesting crowds. We in the U.S. need to know that people are standing up all over the world and the world is trying to squash them. We may turn out the same way if people don't stand firm.
As you note, France has been roiled with massive country-wide protests against lockdowns and then mandates for months ( when I told a friend she airily dismissed this news because the French "protests as a way of life.) They have also been frequent in Germany, Italy, and the UK. Protests are attended by hundreds of thousands. There were numerous protests this past week in NYC--and even in Kuwait (!). Even a few in Canada, intermittently, over the past year. I haven't paid much attention to corporate media since 2016, ever since the local news starting having a cultish political "specialist" tell the audience what to think about the previous president every night, cutting into worthwhile reporting on local crime, infrastructure, legislation, etc. At that point I started getting all news online, largely from the independents. There is plenty of legitimate information on social media, though the censorship campaign across all platforms continues apace. Let's not forget that if you cannot observe the facts, you cannot orient yourself properly in order to make decisions and take meaningful action. To whose advantage is it to keep people frightened, ignorant, and confused?
Yes I agree, and mostly use people I trust on social media (which gets more difficult when they are banned), mainstream news I have not viewed for a couple of years at least. Per your question, I can only think it is to the government advantage, but to what end? Control the people? But why using a virus?
In so far as gov't is a part of rentier society, yes. Global capitalists have been intent on diminishing national sovereignty as concept and practice since the world wars and have made headway (e.g., the professional managerial class earnestly believes in the "global citizen" as a lofty ideal that counters all that is rooted in tradition and "small minded" local matters). Note also that global trade rules take precedence over local and national law.
The steady cultural factor is the rise of what Dmitry Orlov (not the hockey player) calls the "technosphere," which is savagely opposed to the "biosphere." Above all the technosphere hates nature and its manifestation in the human family. It must divide and atomize in order to dominate. Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben has for decades warned of the rise of a endless state of "exception" in service of "bare life," characterized by one State-declared emergency after another (wars on drugs, terror, climate change, and yes, diseases.) If you want to live you must obey the emergency rules. All these emergencies are premised on widespread fear propagated by the corporate media and fear is easily spread when several generations have been indoctrinated in obedience to the collective will--as expressed through the corporate media!
All hubris. The panic of the political class is palpable as they sense their looming irrelevance in the face of the disasters they have created. Time and nature are implacable authorities and this is the good news. The pain may be brief or it may be long, but the lessons will be learned once again--and at scale.
Agreed and if only more could see those protests more people would feel brave enough to do the same. I hope more do it here because United States has often lead the way but we are quickly losing all we’ve stood for. I often wish there would be billboards off the freeway showing snippets of what’s actually going on in the world (like those stupid sayings we often see on the signs while trying to drive). It would soon be not allowed for long, but it could still be far reaching.
Although the origins are important, I think we all know where it came from and how Fauci and company provided the funding. Whether it was released purposefully or accidentally is less important than the end result. I’m 66, my wife is 65. No vax for us. Never. In late January 2020 I emailed my 95 year old father who asked me my opinion on the “China virus.” My answer was short and sweet. “Dad, I smell a rat.” There are millions of us who knew from the very first moment that something was off. My wife got very sick in January 2020. Day 4 with her temp at 104 and O2 at 94 we went to ER. They tested for flu, strep, and a few other things. All negative. They wanted to keep her overnight. Instead we asked for IV fluids and some low flow nasal cannula. Took her home after 4 hours, during which time I did some research. Put her on D, C, zinc and Quercetin. It took 10 more days to totally get rid of the fever and another two weeks to recover. 18 months later she still has issues with her voice. Otherwise she’s fine. There is no doubt in our minds, or her doctors, that she had it. Long before it became a “thing.”
Three days before she became ill we had spent a day at an aquarium in NC. Visiting the aquarium that day were two bus loads of tourists. From China. Go figure.
As an Australian, living in Australia, I can confirm that your Australian reader is spot on with his report. I've elderly parents who saturate themselves in the mainstream media that is continually spewing out the propaganda with completely distorted reporting on protests (if they do at all), no mention of anything hopeful happening overseas, nothing about vaccine injuries, actually not much other news at all except to push the vaccine rollout.
However, even my parents and their network of friends, in their 80s and not plugged into alternative news sources, are starting to wonder what the hell is going on and questioning the narrative.
I am, however, plugged into what can only be described as an underground network of "rebels" who ignore mainstream media and share stories from health, legal, emergency service, and government professionals who are telling it as it is - almost like a parallel culture/society. I don't know how big this network is as, from my perspective, we are like "cells" of people all connected to other cells in a vast decentralized network. Is the network big enough to make a change politically? No idea. But I do know there are pockets of this underground resistance (that's what it feels like) that are very well organised, have a groundswell of support, and they give me hope.
If it is true that mass vaccinations are fueling more virulent variants, things will get much worse. For many this seems illogical. It would seem putting pressure on virus would be a good thing, but not with leaky vaccine which apparently few understand. This is not a polio vaccine. The vaccine is weak, meaning virus can mutate and resist vaccine which is what we will continue to see. Also vaccine like flu vaccine just protects a short time. I am seriously bothered by quick rise of cases right after vaccinations. Seem to happen over and over again. Leads me to think that person’s immune system has been weakened, altered, to allow virus to easily invade cells. Also scientist says sequencing combination never seen before suggesting lab tweaking has made this virus act differently.
My point is the virus is going nowhere. Whether a person is vaccinated or unvaccinated, the virus will resist vaccines and infect those not already infected. It is crazy to think all of us have not come in contact with virus many times. Our immune system did its job. We have not cured the common cold, flu and this COVD will not be cured either.
Family members of mine are all vaccinated and terrified. I had to step away from family. Too toxic. Sad. Not surprised. A best friend from when I was a young girl is equally nuts now. She loved Cuomo. I had to let her go. I warned her about Biden. She loved him. Another obese man I know, again a republican, loves Biden. He was a cop. Terrified of dying but smokes and over eats and talks non stop about poor health.
Yes the boomers are terrified of dying. When I tell people we all have cancer cells, they do not believe. They hate that I did not do,chemo, radiation drugs, etc. Boomers love their pills and yes big pharma. My oncologist said people my age, 69, take at least 7 drugs a day. See the dependency.
I see now that Pfizer is developing pill like horse paste to treat virus. Hmmm. They can charge a lot more. Call it a different name. Same stuff.
Up until this pandemic, I was afraid of dying too. But what is infinitely more terrifying is living in a police state where am not allowed to think and act for myself. That's not a life I want for myself or anyone who comes after me. Screw Cuomo, and Biden every single last one of them. I will not comply. Not now, not ever. They'd have to kill me. All of a sudden death isn't that scary after all.
I love going on Twitter and reading how vaccinated people believe they are protected. None have any idea these vaccines are leaky vaccines. Most think the two jabs will protect them for life. The idea the vaccinated may be the spreaders is a thought they never had. They concede the old and ill may need a booster. Now we find out booster is same as first two jabs? So variant has changed supposedly, but vaccine not reformulated to address variant change? Vaccinated believe variants so similar no need to change vaccine. How come that does not apply to flu vaccines that are different every year?
I have had breast cancer since I was 40. I am 69 now. I have had 3 surgeries. Nothing else. The pressure I was under to take chemo by doctors was nothing short of ghoulish. You are seeing it now with vaccine. They would tell you force is for your best interest.
wow! good for you! that's a story you rarely hear, because most people are not strong enough to argue with their doctors. they usually never go to the doctor until it's "too late" and thus get no treatment, or they go early and get every kind of treatment possible. I read about the history of cancer "treatments" and I was not impressed, to say the least. It's barbaric. Does your cancer keep going back?
Cancer is determined to have come back based on symptoms then PET scan. So swollen lymph nodes in neck is a big one. Pain in the back suggesting the cancer traveled to bones. Breast cancer is a traveling cancer through blood or lymph nodes. People always wonder how a person can die with cancer in a breast. Well they do not. It traveled which is common. My cancers were both primaries. So supposedly unrelated to each other. Also you can have mixed types of breast cancer which happened to me. For most breast cancer patients fear is a reoccurring cancer that has traveled to brain or bones. My cancer is supposedly an aggressive form meaning it replicates quickly.
The reason the “vaccine” is leaky is because it is only targeting one antigen of the virus—the spije protein—not the whole virus. That makes it easier for a hardier strain—of which there are multiple ones, to adapt and then it’s off to the races.
I live in Australia I totally concur with this very accurate, insightful and perceptive description of the media here. I also want to thank you Alex, you were a shining light in a sea of darkness on Twitter. I am so grateful that you continue to report the truth. I am nearly 50 with seven children, I am old and worn out. The totalitarian government and the media censorship scares me a lot. Trying to protect my children and family is an exhausting task these days. So when I say I am grateful for your reporting, I truly mean it! It is people like you, that will and I believe we will; bring back some sense of sanity to the world. They can’t hide the truth forever.
Hi from Perth. We must keep fighting. There is a Bational strike day tomorrow. I will be there just to support those opposing the “No jab, no job” agenda.
I am close to 70 and I have chosen not to be vaccinated. As a result I have not seen my grandchildren in almost 2 years. I too feel like a lone wolf often but I am so firmly convinced that we are being duped into believing this COVID narrative being played out, that I am firmly planted in my beliefs which are based on research and common sense. My husband had COVID and will not be vaccinated because he has natural immunity. Common sense, right???
I believe standing firmly in our God given freedom of choice is the truest example of what freedom means to our children and grandchildren. The truth will shine through. I don’t know when but I believe that it will. Those who don’t understand will when that truth shines through. Stand firm!!! Do not cave because it is easier. We need strength and encouragement from each other. And I am truly thankful for this forum. Thanks Alex.
Alex! I am a US citizen and elderly. We (husband and I) have elected not to take vaccine. We continue to stay informed by reading your information and others. Keep it coming. Pertaining to this subject matter of the elderly being super afraid, I can testify that, in my circle, we are loners. Most have taken vaccine and are quick to admonish us for not taking it.
Same here! I am in my 60s and was diagnosed with a rare lung condition (on oxygen) before the virus but saw through this whole scam from the beginning. My neighbors are scared of me because I refuse to get the clot shot. There is info that this vaccine can cause pulmonary hypertension which is what I have! Why would I take something voluntarily that could make me worse???
Thank you, Alex, for your reporting from the beginning! I have followed you on Tucker and heard you on talk radio. Thank you for searching out the info and having the guts to publish it despite all the guff you take!
Exactly. Years ago, an oncologist desperately wanted me to sign up for clinical trial. So I listened not wanting to be rude. I asked him to tell me truthfully the side effects. He did. Yikes. I told him I had none of those conditions and thus why would I want to take a chance getting sick? He nodded. He said in order to stop your cancer. Can you guarantee that for me? Nope. I said thank you no. I made it about 25 years before another bout.
keep fighting! You're a badass and will live longer than your sheeple neighbors.
Same here; my husband and I are in our 70’s, not vaxxed, and I only have just a few friends who haven’t been vaxxed. So many other friends, neighbors and family telling us we need to get vaxxed.
I am not vaxxed and not getting it, but I pressured my parents, in their 70’s to get it early. I gravely regret that. It slowed my Dad down a lot (and he wasn’t slowed down before the vaccine). I fear it impacted him negatively as his energy and oxygen levels remain suppressed all these months later. 💔😢
Around April of this year my kids (and their friends) were calling me and emailing and texting me begging me to get jabbed.
I am healthy and 71 and a retired RN. I do all the FLCCC preventative protocols and finally convinced everyone to leave me in peace when they had to admit that the worst number one adverse reaction of the jabs is death.
I convinced them to let me finish my life on my own terms.
💓💓💓
Look at trying to find the supplement NAC for him. It may be hard to since the frigging FDA is trying to pull it off the shelves so I have been buying it every time I find it but I am reading a lot of studies showing that's helping the lungs for both covid and the shot's side effects.
I buy from nutricost.com. Those with COPD find it helps reduce mucus and coughing. Always used Amazon and had it delivered by subscription for many years - until the FDA scared them. The FDA wants to regulate NAC as a drug rather than a supplement. It's widely used in hospitals for acetaminophen overdose.
Thank you for the link! Dr Ben Lynch has been selling it too but it sells out quickly.
I didn't know that. Wondered why I've been having trouble finding it.
Thank you. I found one.
praying he comes back to full strength before too much longer, NCmom
💕
I also the same; i convinced my husband not to take it and my children have not although my son in law had one shot and thinks everything i say is crazy. He actually rolls his eyes and laughs if i give him a statistic and refutes everything no matter the facts shown to him. Friends who have run to take their 3rd shot tell my husband that he should do something about me because i will get everyone sick by continuing my ‘conspiracy theories’. It makes me actually very sad to hear and see this, how intelligent people have so bought into this and cannot see through it; it really baffles me and depresses me a lot.
The Promise of a Return to Normal is a very effective enticement to get vaxxed....unfortunately the opposite is happening ! Ask if a "show your papers" society is Normal; it isn't here in America. Vaxxed or Unvaxxed , we do not want what they are planning going forward !!
Tell them to look up Geert Vandenbosche that says we need more unvaccinated to stop the variants
He is super.
Sandra, no matter what those "friends" say. I am over here cheering you on! I'm in a very blue area and it's crazy (lots of people driving with masks on alone). I can tell you that a lot of the elites and the famous ones are not jabbed or distancing or depriving themselves of social interaction. Their children are not wearing masks anywhere (God bless them)! They are taking care of themselves and their own!
Sandra, you are the smart one and you’ve done your research. I’ve seen too much that I cannot unsee. I will not get the to get the vax because it’s not safe. For your son in law to dismiss you and roll his eyes just shows he’s not paying attention, and frankly he’s quite rude.
My dad is a healthy 79 year old and has chosen to skip the vaccine (in his words - I've never gotten a flu shot, why should I bother with this one?). My mom was scared and got it ("They tell me if I get it I'll die!").
But they are SAFE from Covid, Right ? Since They are Vaxxed !!
They can only get other people infected with the covid, THANK GOD
Alcatraz....😆.
I can’t tell you how important it is to enjoy a laugh or two.
Thanks for this!
I’m in my 60’s and my husband is 74. We are unvaxxed as well. My husband had a severe reaction to the flu shot before so there’s no way he’s taking this experimental shot. Most everyone we know has had it. My brother has gone over to the dark side and is for all these mandates and restrictions. He’s lost all common sense. I now call him comrade.
“I now call him comrade” this made me chuckle. We must find humor where we can these days. Stay strong.
Already I know of two who ran to take the booster, and another who had Covid19 then got the jab resulting in a stroke. I would add that OAN news station is more informative all the rest.
Have you checked your vitamin d? I have decided not to take the vaccine (I am 33, but my bmi is 30), but I have supplemented my vitamin d level to 60 ng/ml and I take zink, quercetin and omega 3 oil.
I had mine checked and it was over 60. I also take zinc and quercertin. I hear the zinc plus quercetin does the job of over the counter HCQ
Thanks! I have done all of the above plus the dreaded horse paste ( human Ivermectin)
Add melatonin (at bedtime).
Done and thanks!!!!
Niacin the flush kind works too. Look up Dmitry Katz or Joseph Mercolas websites for more info. Niacin plus melatonin.
Thanks & keep the faith
Considering how leaky this is I don’t blame you!!!! At this point I’m shocked the focus isn’t on monoclonal antibodies and other early treatment. As much as people make fun of it, and it does make me laugh, I’m also encouraged things like providone-iodine nasal spray and gargling mouthwash actually appear to reduce viral replication early on in the nose snd throat.
It’s your choice. You are the ones who have to deal with the outcomes. Conveying data to people (honest data - not manipulated to support a narrative by misrepresenting the data) is fine. But passing moral judgement on the decisions of others in this case is just weird and based in ideology.
There was also a study done on xclear nasal spray and how it deactivates covid in the nasal cavity. We’ve used the product for a long time and I was surprised to see the study hanging on our pediatrician’s wall.
https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20210126005436/en/New-Study-Concludes-Xlear-Kills-andor-Deactivates-SARS-CoV-2-Efficacy-Against-New-Variants
That is awesome that your pediatrician posted it!!!! We have like 8 bottles - and we added povidone-iodine to a bottle for each of us for after after attending crowded indoor events (we didn't put the iodine in the kids' bottles, just ours). I'm not necessarily trying to avoid the virus, but I'd like to reduce the viral load where possible.
Our pediatrician is the best! He was in a big, local practice and all patients that weren’t fully vaxxed we’re getting kicked out. He left and opened his own practice. All of us followed and his practice has exploded. They have about 8 pediatricians now and completely support alternative treatments and supplements. I also just found out that two of the doctors in the practice are prescribing iver for kids with covid (if needed). We are very blessed. Quick question, I recently purchased a bottle of Lugol’s Iodine, would you add a drop of that to the bottle? And what exactly does that do?
There is a formula for the iodine for nasal spray - I think 1/2 teaspoon for an Xlear bottle (look it up though to check me). It kills the virus in the nasal passages thereby reducing replication there. Mouth wash does the same for the throat. Check out Swiss Policy Research.
My husband and I go to an integrative med practice that is also exploding too. We are hoping our pediatrician goes at some point - he is far better suited to that type of package than the one he is at, and we know his family well enough to know where they fall on all of that stuff. Child vaccine mandates for Covid may be what pushes him over the edge.
I believe low interest in origin of the virus is because we all know it came from the Wuhan Lab. I'd like to see more on what we are going to do about it.
Yea that plus there's zero chance of anything done about it in our lifetimes even if you had all the evidence in the world. A bit like Saudi Arabia's involvement in 9/11...
Or Hillary's many crimes.
I agree. Plus we are all facing an existential threat right now in our own direct lives with the illegal mandates!
I think we (read: Fauci) assisted for some rather nefarious reasons.
Bingo! Occam's Razor.
Exactly.
And, we can never know the truth since China will NEVER ever admit it nor allow the third party to investigate in Wuhan. American politicians.. do under estimate the Chinese communist party. If you think they regard life as we do, you are mistaken. Life means nothing to them. They will kill you if you step out of line without even thinking. Americans assume every human being has at least a shred of humanity... but, they don't. They give you chill.. if you have ever gone and experienced how it is like there with communist party. These are people who treat Uyghur like slaves.. torture and kill them as they please, forcefully harvest organs from living human being without their consent. As for Australians, they probably regret giving up their guns now?
Agreed.
true that!
I agree!
I think the WuFlu is a distraction from the opportunity to roll out the hi-tech toys. This may have been a perfect storm. I hate to involve politics but Trump as President may have moved up the rollout date of the Future. He created a Schism and they were aiming for Docile. (For the record I feel all politicians are in it for the take - who goes into politics for the betterment of mankind? Nope. And it is becoming dynastic - Bush Family, Cuomos, Trumps, and now young Giuliani wants a piece? It's called Entropy.). This Plan was being put in place since the 1980's. It could have been an accidental leak, or it could have been a planned leak, but out it goes into Mankind! Qui bono? Pharma, Tech, Biotech; ancillary - property, fuel, basic groceries, staffing, wfh furniture, food delivery, and anything else you now use that you never would have thought of using 2 years ago. I am sad that Youtube is purging the truth speakers, please visit WhatsHerFace https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LAMuhgzXLs before she gets jetted off, Russell Brand too, and visit Mercola (used to be an awesome alt med source, now has become front line resistance) https://blogs.mercola.com/sites/vitalvotes/archive/2021/09/29/my-response-to-youtube-banning-my-account.aspx before they finally take him down. Can't believe this is happening in my lifetime. I was very hesitant about the vax, but the propaganda and media bias and censorship signaled that it is not about health. Never was. It is about control. I recommend getting a shortwave radio. Sooner or later, you and your opinions will not be permitted on the www.
Thank you ejsmith for being more eloquent than my stream of consciousness blather. Definitely Trump was a "spanner in the works". Thanks for the info on sw radio stations. I need to look into these. I know I need an FCC license to speak, but when hell breaks loose, who will care.
I believe China entered the WTO on 9/12/01? I remember that mentioned at the time. We were not able to digest news obviously. 9/11 is another thread for another time. But the footers for today were being put in place, in hindsight.
Arkansas now recognizes antibodies as immunity, and the scientific community is questioning Biden's 97% approach. So maybe the tide is starting to turn. Hold the line as long as you can. Both you and your good wife. I am in the same boat, face losing my home and job. Find me in Florida!
You are one of the few commenters I've seen in the past year+ who gets it. All this was conceived long ago:
Advanced forms of biological warfare that can target "specific genotypes may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool." page 60
https://archive.org/details/RebuildingAmericasDefenses/page/n71/mode/1up/search/bio-weapon
Never thought about it this way but his is the truth. My father in law who is accountant and a republican, is big supporter of the vaccine and the lockdowns. I can't believe it honestly. But he is 65 and close to being obese. So the virus is dangerous to him. And I guess he has a big fear of dying. Typical boomer. He has lived a great life and probably should focus on his grandson not growing up in a 1984/brave new world. But I guess he wants to keep playing golf and fish. But I guess that is the way of today world. A whole generation afraid of death even when they have lived a healthy 60+ years. Sacrifice the young so I can keep living my blessed life. Just pure selfishness in today's society.
That would bring out the savage in me. My parents are in their early 80s. They never tried to coronabro us or anyone else. Whenever kids or grandkids want to visit, we’re welcome. They love going out to eat. My mother even flew alone last fall to visit her sister in AZ. They’ve had COVID, of course. I think living normally is a factor in survival.
G-d bless them, Suzy! My FIL is the same way. He has lived his life because he says staying home and not seeing his grandkids is not living.
Yay!!
Please know that all of us "boomers" are not "typical." And your comment is slightly smug, though I think you meant no offense. I am a fit almost-60 y.o. who takes care of myself, and THAT, not necessarily age, is where I see the line being drawn. So many people eat nothing but crap, never exercise, guzzle gallons of soft drinks, and want the "vaccine" to save them. I'd love to see more people, "boomers" AND young, take more responsibility for their own health.
Sorry it was smug. I am sure there are tons of boomers who are fit and not vaxed. Or they are fit and vaxed. If my father in law actually lost like 50 pounds and focused on his health and he was vaxed, I wouldn't have a problem with it. But he drinks wine every night, golfs every day and fishes on the weekend. And he wants to lecture me about getting the vaccine. It just has gotten heated bc I'm my own man.
I am frustrated by so much about the conversation around Covid, but perhaps the MOST frustrating piece is how assuming responsibility for your general health through diet, exercise, supplements and sun exposure has been not only ignored, but actively suppressed. Now "responsible" is defined as "take the damn shot!"
100%. Couldn't agree more. That is what infuriates me the most.
Me, too. Too much obesity.
https://markoshinskie8de.substack.com/p/npr-neodemocrats-newark-fear-animal
My coworker says a patient’s stay in ICU could’ve been avoided because we have a “free” shot and anyone who doesn’t get it is putting her life and her grandkids life in danger!!
That's right.
https://markoshinskie8de.substack.com/p/npr-neodemocrats-newark-fear-animal
Understood. And thank you for taking the time to reply. Yes, the lectures are reeaally hard to take. From my 87-year-old mom: "This would all be over now if everyone would just get vaccinated." Aargh.
So many people are trapped by Big Ag. Then gLobal brands/fast food chains. Then Big Pharma.
I have to disagree, in part. I am a “boomer” born in 1946. I worry about my children and grandchildren. I’m not Vaxxed and in good health. I don’t want it. I am not afraid of dying, I just don’t want to be there when it happens.
I’ll second that emotion! I don’t have grandkids yet (born in 63). I worry all the time about my Daughter and my friends kids and grandkids. I used to be afraid of dying but not anymore. I’m choosing to live life to the fullest now while I still can, because I can’t imagine living a life where my every move will be controlled.
inspiring
Bravo! And one of my favorite Woody Allen quotes.
I would have to disagree. I’m a baby boomer and almost everyone I’ve talked to in my age group are in this fight (vaccinated and untaxed). We are the second to last generation that still remembers true patriotism. My observation has been the younger and elderly have been the ones to most fall for all the propaganda
Unvaxxed
When my mom was in her 30s-40s always said if a tornado is coming she would just sleep through it. Also does not want to ever be intubated. Very leftist and hates big business and billionaires. NOW, vaxxed and taking the booster. Doesn’t want to die of Covid. I tried to warn her and my dad about lack of accountability, benefit to Big Pharma, how the clot shot works, how it was funded, lab origins, people dying of adverse effects, all to no avail. My dad says it’s like chicken soup, it can’t hurt. Their Dr. pushes it and they Google any of my claims and find out it’s all been debunked. I just said, don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Stop using google! You’ll never see the real truth.
Exactly, but that’s all my parents know and they don’t understand what I mean by search algorithms. I brought up Dr. Peter McCullough and the first thing it says is he was fired from Baylor for using their name. I mentioned Dr. Robert Malone and the search beings up his interview with Steve Bannon who might as well be Trump in their eyes. I tell them about VAERS and how many people of died, and the search brings up that there have been no deaths linked to the V. And of course of you try to search for VAERS results you will not see the current count. It’s so frustrating! They won’t ever see the truth of what is happening because of the censorship.
Sadly this seems to be the boomer attitude, still the "Me Generation."
I'm a boomer, obese and diabetic. The panic-mongering worked on me, for a while. I self-isolated from late May until mid October last year. But I
*never* thought everyone should be locked down. I spent a lot of time reading up, realized I'd been had. I had been hoping the vaccines would be a good solution, I was just in a wait and see attitude. Well, I've seen more than enough - no damn way! I'm going to trust the *real* doctors treating *real* patients. I *know* what to do about covid-19, I have no idea what to do if the vaxx goes south on me.
It's definitely a specific demographic of boomers. In California it's all the rich ones that live in the million dollar houses in my area. My parents are boomers and they don't act like nuts.
None of my business, but does that last sentence mean that you took the jab and are worried about it. Again, none of my business. and you can tell me so.
That's total bs and unfair to the majority of boomers. Every generation has assholes. Maybe even yours.
hahahaha
As a Boomer, I have to say I'm ashamed of my generation. For a group of people who started our adult lives protesting against "the machine", we sure have become the cogs in its wheels. Sad.
Not all boomers are created equal.
True with any group of people. However, I can only do an extrapolation from my own circle of friends. And the numbers don't seem to be supportive of the majority of Boomers being anything but self-serving.
Ryan, you are correct to tap the boomers. I’m one myself, and there has never been a more self-serving group of narcissists.
It’s so true! I email vetted info to my boomer friends (I’m one as well) and no response except from the non-country club group. Those in the country clubs, even the conservatives, thank me for being so involved but think they’re above getting involved. “It’s just not right to talk about politics or religion”. I plead with them to just share information but they’d rather golf and drink their wine at night and chat about how the world has gone to crap, not even realizing they could make a difference.
Maybe he should get himself healthy
Middle aged women that love totalitarians. 😆 It’s so true. Feminism replaced the a husband with husband-government.
This right here is a little-noticed underlying factor: the rise of females in societal leadership.
I'm a woman and it seems to me that despite an overwhelmingly crowded field of would-be tyrants vying for the authoritarian brass ring throughout the ongoing scamdemic, the most vicious authoritarians have all been women. Then I remember Hillary saying something about women making better leaders and I laugh and laugh...
Definitely. I keep saying to husband things will only improve when men are back in control. Women were not made for politics and war.
The NeoDems are totalitarians.

Propaganda, like, NY Governor Kathy Hochul telling me that Jesus wants me to get the vaccine.
🤫🤫Does Jesus know that her daughter-in-law is a Big Pharma lobbyist?🤫🤫
Follow The Money
Every time that woman speaks, you can literally see the dollar signs in her eyes. Wonder if the Bible has anything to say about that?
I think it does, but she wouldn't like what it says.
She is a blasphemer.
She’s the vaccine messiah, I’m waiting for her rise from the dead on the third day, which is today. Total idiot.
Cheer Up People, According to recent polling the Dems/Leftists are hook ,line and sinker sucking down vaccines faster than they can make boosters so maybe by election 2022 ,there will really be more of us then them ! Just saying!
Don't listen to twistedkim, he's a vaxxer
really? 🤨

Alex, I’m also from Australia, my wife and I are both health professionals, ages 75, and we won’t get the jab even though it will drastically curtail our lifestyle. We have travelled internationally every year. That is all gone unless a miracle happens.
The big problem is that most doctors, and mainly the young ones, have bought into this vaccination fiasco, even rushing to get their kids jabbed. They have no critical thinking; they operate based on protocols. As Dr Peter McCullough says, they are “in a trance”. They don’t even understand the basic science of virology. Ultimately, the only victims in this debacle are members of the public.
If I could leave Australia, I would do so in a heartbeat. This is not the country that I came to 41 years ago. The “lucky country” which was a term coined in a 1960’s book about Australia, is no more. Our luck has run out.
I'm so sorry you are going through this down there. The only hope I hold on to is that I don't see how it id physically possible to keep this insanity going indefinitely. I understand the terrifying of the older voting bloc, but the younger people I met in Australia were independent as hell and I have to believe that they will push back at some point. I really wish you well. I truly love your country, or at least what it used to be.
There is a lot to like about Australia but when the government does everything it can to coerce you to get the injection, it flies in the face of respect for bodily autonomy. What is so irrational is that the jabs are ineffective and daily we are seeing and hearing about adverse events. Post injection deaths, strokes, myocarditis, tremors, it’s all happening. It’s shameful that as a country we tolerate this form of chemical lethality.
Strength in numbers is the only way to overcome this right now Ely. From our point of view in the USA it seems like the most success has come from the construction workers protesting. So perhaps every concerned citizen leaving their house at the same moment, then proceeding to their local 'leadership's' front door and banging on it to drag them outside (nicely of course) is probably a good first step. From the videos I've seen, you cannot even step outside without a mask or visit a beach without getting your asses beaten by the police. Strength in numbers.
Luckily I live in Western Australia. Our borders are shut to Victoria, New South Wales and Queensland. We are so isolated…we have 2.6 million people in a state 1/3 the size of the USA. We have had 4 previous lockdowns. If we get two cases that is considered an “outbreak”. This is psychosis. I do have properties in Texas, luckiky I have other people, including friends to handle things,
You can’t leave the country at all?
Nope. You can only get a special permit for work overseas and only if you’ve been “vaccinated”. Plus most airlines like Qantas require a vaccine certicate. No we’re stuck.
I’d send you a damn boat if I could.
Unbelievable. What is Australia's rationale for not letting citizens out? No other country on earth does that anymore. Except for North Korea.
Because they don’t want you to come back in with the virus. My ex son-in-law works overseas (got a special permit), has been “vaccinated”, yet still has to quarantine for two weeks when he returns. Doesn’t the jab work. Of course we know that it doesn’t and that is the whole hysteria surrounding these political and bureaucratic thugs.
We only have one or two brave political souls like Member of Parliament, Craig Kelly. He should get a Nobel Prize. https://youtu.be/3J-NyIxXL5w
I’m so sorry this is modern day tyranny. Who can stop this?
Speak to Gates, Soros, Fauci, Klaus and his Economic Forum friends.
That is awful! Such totalitarian BS! You are all going to have to unite and fight it. Start local. A small group of determined citizens can make a difference.
There are but so far the Courts have not cooperated.
Another person in this thread calls Australia, Alcatraz.
Good analogy.
Are you allowed to leave the country or are you effectively a prisoner?
Prisoner.
I listened to Joe Rogan interviewing Amanda Knox the other day. I thought it was interesting for a number of reasons but one thing stood out to me. They had a brief discussion about Covid and the vaccine and Knox commented about how vaccines just give you a small dose of a dead virus to induce an immune response. Rogan said "not this vaccine." And Knox was sort of stunned. She had no idea that this vaccine worked any differently than any other vaccine.
It wasn't until I heard her say that that it occurred to me that I bet MOST people think this vaccine is just like all the other vaccines that most of us have been given. So of course, it doesn't make sense to most people why so many others would resist taking the vaccine. Most people think that this vaccine is just as safe as all the vaccines most of us have taken our whole lives - and that it will stop the spread of the virus - just like the measles vaccine stops the spread of measles.
Once you understand that most of the public is so misled about this vaccine then you can understand their anger at the unvaccinated and the public's tolerance of things like vaccine passports and mandates.
If you're correct and that is most people's understanding, then the next question a thinking person who is simply misinformed would ask: If my vaccine protects me, then why do I care if my neighbor isn't vaccinated? I've never had to worry about that before. Hmmm
Well, first, most people don't think much about it. And if they do, there are all sorts of examples in the past where public health authorities insisted that everyone get vaccinated to protect those who can't get the vaccine. I remember that happening with measles a few years ago.
What is interesting is that the MMR vaccine does prevent most transmission - even though measles is the most contagious virus that we know of. What is also interesting is that the CDC lists a long list of people who shouldn't get the MMR shot:
People with allergies, pregnant women, people with weakened immune systems, people have a close relative with immune problems, people with any condition that causes them to bleed or bruise easily, people who have had a blood transfusion, people who have gotten other vaccines within a month, and anyone who "isn't feeling well."
Now here is the list of people who shouldn't get the Covid vaccine:
People who have had a severe allergic reaction to the specific ingredients in the vaccine.
Yes, they don’t understand it’s genetic engineering. They also don’t understand what the spike protein does to your capillaries. News flash! Most doctors don’t either.
I am not sure it is correct to call it genetic engineering. But one thing is for sure, we have never had a vaccine that told our own bodies to produce the toxin. There is little doubt that we cannot possibly know the long term consequences. Maybe everything will be fine. Who knows? Is that a gamble that you would take with your children?
It is genetic engineering because the mRNA injections contain billions of Messenger RNA encased in a nanoparticle. In the body, the RNA is released then directs your DNA to produce the spike protein.
The other Covid vaccines are DNA based and get the body to produce the Messenger RNA which go into the ribosomes of the cells where the spike protein is produced. Either way it is genetic manipulation.
There is some evidence that some of the genetic components get integrated into one’s DNA. Normally with vaccines, the whole virus is killed (attenuated) and the body produces an immune response to that.
Personally, I think manufacturing a non-natural spike protein is a good way to become variant factory. In a way, we all could be, but this seems dangerous.
The measles vaccine doesn't work either. Doctors just call it other things like roseola.
We've been lied to about every disease in history and the medical response to it.
The difference between measles et al and covid is that doctors play the gatekeeping role in the diagnosis or testing of every other disease so it appears as though the vaccines for them work. That is, doctors typically refuse to diagnose or test for the disease if the patient is vaccinated - so the diseases just get renamed.
With covid - for the first time in history - patients decide if they get a test or not and the doctor gatekeeping role is minor (except in hospital).
That's why the data for covid has a strange phenomena whereby it looks as though it prevents hospitalizations but is useless at preventing cases.
In reality it prevents nothing - like every other vaccine.
Partly true. Smallpox, which had a fatality rate of 30% was greatly reduced by vaccination. The death rates from illnesses like measles diminished greatly during the 20th century before the vaccine was ever launched. Public health and sanitation has been the biggest difference.
You want to be truly red pilled?
Do two things.
Look up "variola minor mortality rates" and then do an image search for monkeypox.
Smallpox absolutely did not have a 30 percent mortality rate. Its mortality rate was whatever doctors wanted it to be depending on which narrative they were going for.
The 30 percent figure was used for arguing in front of judges to justify compulsory vaccination. The 1 percent figure (blamed on a made up notion of two types of smallpox (remember it's not like they had laboratory testing in the 19th century)) was used to explain away real world cases of villages/towns having "outbreaks" of smallpox with zero fatalities.
You're right about mortality from measles, pertussis etc falling (according to official data) before their vaccines but it's even worse than that because the official data doesn't account for the fact the diseases have been renamed since their vaccines.
I'm not ignoring you by not responding or looking things up, but I do have to get on with my day. It is morning and the start of a new day. I still work, even at my age.
Watched this video this morning. It is the truth about the virus.
https://www.theepochtimes.com/dr-jay-bhattacharya-on-vaccine-mandates-herd-immunity-and-why-zero-covid-19-is-impossible_4022117.html
The mainstream media is acting as the propaganda arm of the government/Democrat Party. Fortunately it is still possible to get accurate information via the Internet. It is possible to go around the Big Tech companies that are doing what they can to suppress discussion and information sharing. Thankfully content producers and providers, and investigators such as Alex Berenson are able to create their own platforms to get the information out.
I try to stay informed. It is frightening to realize how the LIE quickly permeates the public consciousness and crowds out any consideration for TRUTH or even skepticism.
There is a reason that many people who subscribe to your Substack feed are not particularly interested in the origins of the virus. It is because many/most of us believe the virus escaped from the Wuhan Virology Lab. Many of us believe Dr. Fauci authorized the research at the Wuhan Lab and found a way to fund it directly through the NIH budget and possibly with grants as well.
Naomi Wolf was interviewed by Tucker Carlson on Foxnation.com. She described how her husband, an investigator, discovered primary source material that the original gain of function research began at UNC. When it became public, it was moved to Wuhan because that kind of research is illegal in the USA.
The interview with Naomi Wolf was fantastic on Fox Nation with Tucker Carlson. I signed up recently just to hear Tucker's long interviews, which are just like podcasts. Thank goodness for people like Naomi and of course the handful of others like Alex, Tucker, etc.
Naomi,I agree with you about interest in the origins of the Wuhan virus.I think most of us on this Substack believe we already know exactly who,what,where,when and how as to the Wuhan virus and the pandemic as you succinctly stated,and furthermore,that no definitive inquiry into it is going to be completed anytime soon,and therefore,better to concentrate on vaccine mandates and so forth…
The media is a tool of the NeoDems.

“Our Father who art in heaven…”
The weekend before St. Patrick’s Day this year, our father (to me and my 4 siblings, all in our late 50’s - early 60’s, who are not ‘anti-vaxxers’ in general, only to this EUA madness and rush to judgement vaccination government protocol) received the 2nd dose of Moderna mRNA shot.
He was 87yrs strong and from my understanding the second jab is the more ‘toxic’ shot than the first. After the first shot in the arm he had relatively no side effects, other than a soreness around the injection site of his arm and he slept quite a bit more afterward.
Approximately one week before his second shot, he scheduled a physical exam with his doctor just to be sure he was in good health to receive the 2nd shot. Doc gave him a clean bill of health and approval to get the jab.
He rec’d his 2nd shot on a Saturday and on the following Monday a picture came to my phone... something did not look right with his eyes, the iris and pupil were very dark and hard to differentiate, almost as if they had congealed and blended. It was strange and I discerned a not-so- healthy disposition in his facial appearance. But, putting the thot aside, I reasoned that perhaps it was a bad picture day and did not think much more of it. Only to purpose and get to him sooner than later for a visit. So I cleared my schedule to make a visit on Weds, St Pat’s Day.
He was fine! The clarity in his eyes came back, his appearance was good and he stated he was feeling well, other than the soreness in the arm and more sleepish-ness than normal. He even gave us a limerick that my sweetheart dutifully captured on video that fine day for the family to enjoy.
Dad loved a good limerick and would repeat it as many times as he would be asked if it still carried a hint of interest or laughter, even from the most cynical crowd. He was always presenting humor within our fragmented family and gatherings just to feather the edges of discord or make light of a particularly uncomfortable conversation.
An avid WWII History buff, most everyone gained from his ability to blend humor into social circles just to keep conversations from going to the outer fringes of bullshit. He was an artist in this way and we all loved him for it…but I digress.
The following Monday morning the call that you don’t want to receive, came... “Your father has passed. He was found in the bathroom, apparently having been in the midst of throwing-up early in the AM.”
Prior to removing his body, my brother pulled back the sheet to observe dad and quickly recovered his face. He turned to me and said, “If you have a good memory of Dad, you don’t want to look!”
We all know dead bodies are not for the faint of heart or feeble-minded to observe (of which I am neither and maintain a fairly strong stomach for such images) in general. No one else in the room held their curiosity after that statement!
My brother told us sib’s later that of the few deaths he has been present to observe, this was by far the most haunting to him.
I believe with every fiber of my being that this 2nd shot killed Dad. Both the first responder EMT’s and the physician of record stated that an autopsy was not warranted! That the cause of death was most likely related to a cardio-pulmonary event while heaving in the bathroom… even in the middle of a pandemic and being within the incubation period of 7-10 days for the spike protein to work its magic in the body after the jab. No autopsy required unless their is suspicion of foul play!
Foul play, foul play… Should we not be paying closer attention to effects of morbidity especially within several days of receiving a very contradictory vaccine? Have our checks and balances on medical procedures gone full-tilt!?
Officially we will never know IF the mother-of-all-jabs wreaked havoc within his body and vital organs.
We will never know the actual cause of death and whether the vaccine had anything to do with it. This will be recorded as a foreseeable and normal expiration by virtue of age… wow!
Have we lost all sense to the sacred essence of life? Good lord, where are we headed!?
“… hallowed be thy name.”
I am so sorry for your loss of your wonderful father. I had a similar experience with my 95 year old mom. She was incredibly sharp but had understandable health issues at that age. Her caregivers and my husband and I all thought she'd make it past 100. I begged her to consider getting double vaxxed. Or at least wait until the CA lockdown was relaxed enough so I could be with her. But my mom was a very strong willed old-school liberal and she thought getting vaxxed was the right thing to do so we could all return to normal. She did it believing Fauci and believing it was her duty and for that I'll never forgive these liars. No problem with the first shot except a sore arm. A few days after the second shot she called me at 4 am to tell me she'd become disoriented, fallen out of bed and gashed herself and lost a lot of blood. That wasn't like my mom. She passed away in July. I hate these people who fed my mom lies. I hate them for not telling her the dangers. I hate them when they tell me she was 95 anyway - she was my mom, not their experimental property. I've grieved and raged for the last two months.
My heart goes out to you. These two examples are actually making me cry.
Your dad sounded like a wonderful human being. I'm so sorry for your loss...a horrible one, at that.
my heart goes out to you. Your Dad sounds so much like my Dad, tough and funny and never admitting being ill.
That's my nightmare. My Dad was talked into Pfizer series bu others (I think I hate them). I took him because it was his decision but I did try to talk him out of it. I even stayed up all night refreshing websites to get him on a list, God help me. First shot, he slept a lot after and insisted he was fine. He wasn't. Second shot, he was so weak before, still suffering from the first shot. I had to hold him up. Now he's at the stage, where, if he falls, he can't get up--at all. We're having handholds put up, etc. but I am so angry and am horrified that people will start talking him into the third doomshot.
My elderly mom isn't on any social media. Only info she gets is local/national news. She has no idea about the truth.
Yet, I’m 75 and watch no media. I am Unvaxxed and make my own decisions. Our government is evil. Most in my age group know what is going on here.
Michael, I'm with you albeit a few years younger. I remain unvaxxed and plan to remain that way. I've always been a bit of a hermit though and don't have much of a crowd around me to share stories or news with so it's difficult to judge the temperature of the crowd.
If she’s like my MSNBC mom and dad, she wouldn’t believe you even if you gave her studies and other info about ivermectin and adverse events. My folks said it sounds like some drama queens wanting attention when I sent them to the official VAERS site that lists the actual reports. Unfortunately the day I sent them the link it was mostly sore arms that come up. I’ve seen much more serious ones however and of course they wouldn’t watch the FDA meeting clip from September 17th featuring Dr Jessica Rose and Steven Hirsch.
When I tell her about ivermectin she is astonished and asks why it's not used. She only got vaccine because her church group was questioning her.
The media has been horrible.

This was another topic that I wanted to mention for Alex to cover here, the protests against any & all mandates in other countries. I have been seeing from other sources that protests have been going on in France for 2 months every weekend and they don't get covered. Also, many other European countries have been holding mandate protests with only scant coverage via social media folks who have access to videos and sizes of the protesting crowds. We in the U.S. need to know that people are standing up all over the world and the world is trying to squash them. We may turn out the same way if people don't stand firm.
As you note, France has been roiled with massive country-wide protests against lockdowns and then mandates for months ( when I told a friend she airily dismissed this news because the French "protests as a way of life.) They have also been frequent in Germany, Italy, and the UK. Protests are attended by hundreds of thousands. There were numerous protests this past week in NYC--and even in Kuwait (!). Even a few in Canada, intermittently, over the past year. I haven't paid much attention to corporate media since 2016, ever since the local news starting having a cultish political "specialist" tell the audience what to think about the previous president every night, cutting into worthwhile reporting on local crime, infrastructure, legislation, etc. At that point I started getting all news online, largely from the independents. There is plenty of legitimate information on social media, though the censorship campaign across all platforms continues apace. Let's not forget that if you cannot observe the facts, you cannot orient yourself properly in order to make decisions and take meaningful action. To whose advantage is it to keep people frightened, ignorant, and confused?
Yes I agree, and mostly use people I trust on social media (which gets more difficult when they are banned), mainstream news I have not viewed for a couple of years at least. Per your question, I can only think it is to the government advantage, but to what end? Control the people? But why using a virus?
In so far as gov't is a part of rentier society, yes. Global capitalists have been intent on diminishing national sovereignty as concept and practice since the world wars and have made headway (e.g., the professional managerial class earnestly believes in the "global citizen" as a lofty ideal that counters all that is rooted in tradition and "small minded" local matters). Note also that global trade rules take precedence over local and national law.
The steady cultural factor is the rise of what Dmitry Orlov (not the hockey player) calls the "technosphere," which is savagely opposed to the "biosphere." Above all the technosphere hates nature and its manifestation in the human family. It must divide and atomize in order to dominate. Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben has for decades warned of the rise of a endless state of "exception" in service of "bare life," characterized by one State-declared emergency after another (wars on drugs, terror, climate change, and yes, diseases.) If you want to live you must obey the emergency rules. All these emergencies are premised on widespread fear propagated by the corporate media and fear is easily spread when several generations have been indoctrinated in obedience to the collective will--as expressed through the corporate media!
All hubris. The panic of the political class is palpable as they sense their looming irrelevance in the face of the disasters they have created. Time and nature are implacable authorities and this is the good news. The pain may be brief or it may be long, but the lessons will be learned once again--and at scale.
Agreed and if only more could see those protests more people would feel brave enough to do the same. I hope more do it here because United States has often lead the way but we are quickly losing all we’ve stood for. I often wish there would be billboards off the freeway showing snippets of what’s actually going on in the world (like those stupid sayings we often see on the signs while trying to drive). It would soon be not allowed for long, but it could still be far reaching.
Although the origins are important, I think we all know where it came from and how Fauci and company provided the funding. Whether it was released purposefully or accidentally is less important than the end result. I’m 66, my wife is 65. No vax for us. Never. In late January 2020 I emailed my 95 year old father who asked me my opinion on the “China virus.” My answer was short and sweet. “Dad, I smell a rat.” There are millions of us who knew from the very first moment that something was off. My wife got very sick in January 2020. Day 4 with her temp at 104 and O2 at 94 we went to ER. They tested for flu, strep, and a few other things. All negative. They wanted to keep her overnight. Instead we asked for IV fluids and some low flow nasal cannula. Took her home after 4 hours, during which time I did some research. Put her on D, C, zinc and Quercetin. It took 10 more days to totally get rid of the fever and another two weeks to recover. 18 months later she still has issues with her voice. Otherwise she’s fine. There is no doubt in our minds, or her doctors, that she had it. Long before it became a “thing.”
Three days before she became ill we had spent a day at an aquarium in NC. Visiting the aquarium that day were two bus loads of tourists. From China. Go figure.
Keep up the great work.
not a super spreader event but a super exporter event, imho
As an Australian, living in Australia, I can confirm that your Australian reader is spot on with his report. I've elderly parents who saturate themselves in the mainstream media that is continually spewing out the propaganda with completely distorted reporting on protests (if they do at all), no mention of anything hopeful happening overseas, nothing about vaccine injuries, actually not much other news at all except to push the vaccine rollout.
However, even my parents and their network of friends, in their 80s and not plugged into alternative news sources, are starting to wonder what the hell is going on and questioning the narrative.
I am, however, plugged into what can only be described as an underground network of "rebels" who ignore mainstream media and share stories from health, legal, emergency service, and government professionals who are telling it as it is - almost like a parallel culture/society. I don't know how big this network is as, from my perspective, we are like "cells" of people all connected to other cells in a vast decentralized network. Is the network big enough to make a change politically? No idea. But I do know there are pockets of this underground resistance (that's what it feels like) that are very well organised, have a groundswell of support, and they give me hope.
The media sux.

If it is true that mass vaccinations are fueling more virulent variants, things will get much worse. For many this seems illogical. It would seem putting pressure on virus would be a good thing, but not with leaky vaccine which apparently few understand. This is not a polio vaccine. The vaccine is weak, meaning virus can mutate and resist vaccine which is what we will continue to see. Also vaccine like flu vaccine just protects a short time. I am seriously bothered by quick rise of cases right after vaccinations. Seem to happen over and over again. Leads me to think that person’s immune system has been weakened, altered, to allow virus to easily invade cells. Also scientist says sequencing combination never seen before suggesting lab tweaking has made this virus act differently.
My point is the virus is going nowhere. Whether a person is vaccinated or unvaccinated, the virus will resist vaccines and infect those not already infected. It is crazy to think all of us have not come in contact with virus many times. Our immune system did its job. We have not cured the common cold, flu and this COVD will not be cured either.
Family members of mine are all vaccinated and terrified. I had to step away from family. Too toxic. Sad. Not surprised. A best friend from when I was a young girl is equally nuts now. She loved Cuomo. I had to let her go. I warned her about Biden. She loved him. Another obese man I know, again a republican, loves Biden. He was a cop. Terrified of dying but smokes and over eats and talks non stop about poor health.
Yes the boomers are terrified of dying. When I tell people we all have cancer cells, they do not believe. They hate that I did not do,chemo, radiation drugs, etc. Boomers love their pills and yes big pharma. My oncologist said people my age, 69, take at least 7 drugs a day. See the dependency.
I see now that Pfizer is developing pill like horse paste to treat virus. Hmmm. They can charge a lot more. Call it a different name. Same stuff.
Up until this pandemic, I was afraid of dying too. But what is infinitely more terrifying is living in a police state where am not allowed to think and act for myself. That's not a life I want for myself or anyone who comes after me. Screw Cuomo, and Biden every single last one of them. I will not comply. Not now, not ever. They'd have to kill me. All of a sudden death isn't that scary after all.
Pfizermectin…. Coming soon.
Ha! totally!
I love going on Twitter and reading how vaccinated people believe they are protected. None have any idea these vaccines are leaky vaccines. Most think the two jabs will protect them for life. The idea the vaccinated may be the spreaders is a thought they never had. They concede the old and ill may need a booster. Now we find out booster is same as first two jabs? So variant has changed supposedly, but vaccine not reformulated to address variant change? Vaccinated believe variants so similar no need to change vaccine. How come that does not apply to flu vaccines that are different every year?
Great point. The pharma-medico lifestyle in which people are inured to taking 5, 6, or more regular Rx’s is a huge underlying issue.
People wake up! You don’t need all these prescription drug addictions.
Yes, people love pills and medicine. Not me. Hate all of it. Did you actually beat cancer?
I have had breast cancer since I was 40. I am 69 now. I have had 3 surgeries. Nothing else. The pressure I was under to take chemo by doctors was nothing short of ghoulish. You are seeing it now with vaccine. They would tell you force is for your best interest.
wow! good for you! that's a story you rarely hear, because most people are not strong enough to argue with their doctors. they usually never go to the doctor until it's "too late" and thus get no treatment, or they go early and get every kind of treatment possible. I read about the history of cancer "treatments" and I was not impressed, to say the least. It's barbaric. Does your cancer keep going back?
Cancer is determined to have come back based on symptoms then PET scan. So swollen lymph nodes in neck is a big one. Pain in the back suggesting the cancer traveled to bones. Breast cancer is a traveling cancer through blood or lymph nodes. People always wonder how a person can die with cancer in a breast. Well they do not. It traveled which is common. My cancers were both primaries. So supposedly unrelated to each other. Also you can have mixed types of breast cancer which happened to me. For most breast cancer patients fear is a reoccurring cancer that has traveled to brain or bones. My cancer is supposedly an aggressive form meaning it replicates quickly.
praying for you but you seem so badass without that
The reason the “vaccine” is leaky is because it is only targeting one antigen of the virus—the spije protein—not the whole virus. That makes it easier for a hardier strain—of which there are multiple ones, to adapt and then it’s off to the races.
I live in Australia I totally concur with this very accurate, insightful and perceptive description of the media here. I also want to thank you Alex, you were a shining light in a sea of darkness on Twitter. I am so grateful that you continue to report the truth. I am nearly 50 with seven children, I am old and worn out. The totalitarian government and the media censorship scares me a lot. Trying to protect my children and family is an exhausting task these days. So when I say I am grateful for your reporting, I truly mean it! It is people like you, that will and I believe we will; bring back some sense of sanity to the world. They can’t hide the truth forever.
Hi from Perth. We must keep fighting. There is a Bational strike day tomorrow. I will be there just to support those opposing the “No jab, no job” agenda.

I am close to 70 and I have chosen not to be vaccinated. As a result I have not seen my grandchildren in almost 2 years. I too feel like a lone wolf often but I am so firmly convinced that we are being duped into believing this COVID narrative being played out, that I am firmly planted in my beliefs which are based on research and common sense. My husband had COVID and will not be vaccinated because he has natural immunity. Common sense, right???
I believe standing firmly in our God given freedom of choice is the truest example of what freedom means to our children and grandchildren. The truth will shine through. I don’t know when but I believe that it will. Those who don’t understand will when that truth shines through. Stand firm!!! Do not cave because it is easier. We need strength and encouragement from each other. And I am truly thankful for this forum. Thanks Alex.
Have you not seen your grandchildren, your choice or your kid's?
my kids.
