VladTepes, of substack, recently pointed something out that answered a question that's been nagging me forever.
Why, when ever I try and get to the bottom of the arguments for and against the mass vaccination, do those in favour have such weak arguments but sound so sane, and those against have such compelling arguments - but seem to always, almost deliberately, ride clean off the rails after making them and start banging on about depopulation or Davos.
I'm always particularly troubled listening to Dr Mike Yeadon. Dr Yeadon is clearly a brilliant man posessed of substantial compassion and his detailed arguments that the vaccination is going to result in a humanitarian disaster seem to be backed up by far sounder logic than the empty war-time rhetoric, or simple elitist disdain to explain, of those proposing the vaccine.
Unfortunately he's also fallen - or I should rather say, been pushed - in to the trap of concluding from all the general madness raging around us that someone or some group of sinister forces must 'want us dead'. This is entirely understandable, since unless someone does something official very soon to stop endless vaccination, or enough people just get sick of it and protest, or enough politicians lose interest in making political capital out of it - a war-time scale catastrophe, brought upon ourselves, would appear by multiple accounts to be a very real and quite terrifying outcome. It's said it might come in the form of a global, total immune escape, leading to a bona fide apocalypse, of widespread long term side effects unpredicted or imagined, of a general immune degradation amongst the vaccinated, as Alex Berenson has pointed out UK data seems to indicate is already happening: or even of generational side effects - since it is by no means settled science that mRNA will not revert to DNA. All in all, it's starting to look like another fine mess we've got ourselves in to. I say another because, this wouldn't exactly be the first time: we were lucky to scratch through the Cold War Arms Race - and are by no means out of the danger zone even today.
With vaccine injuries on the rise and the bullshit mainstream narrative that flu is a war in which we are the heroes and we are going to win with our amazing technology increasingly shot full of holes for the general public to see straight through, this would probably be a good time to start talking independent common sense to people: or 'truth to power', as the phrase goes.
It does not seem a good time to be raving 'they want us dead', stacking up the lentils in the bunker and whining about the pathetic posturing of silly elites at Davos, least of all joining the dots to a rich kid dickhead like Klaus Schwab: a deluded Malthusian who by coincidence has been living in a post pandemic fantasy for most of his greedy and moronic little life, instead of doing something helpful any other engineer might do like - oh I don’t know - building a fucking bridge and shutting the fuck up about it.
So how does a credible figure like Mike Yeadon lean in to becoming a prophet for people who, for all their admirable rejection of a truly fucked up establishment norm, give far too much credence to figures like, say, David Icke ( a fascinating man I tend to think is either modern history's most convincing, complex and dedicated charlatan, or its most successful functioning schizophrenic.) In a time of total insanity: more insanity does not seem to be a very effective riposte. What is a former Chief Scientist for Pfizer, a research scientist of international standing, doing leading the deluded anti-Davos charge?
Well, I was never able to fathom it, except with the rather lame notion that the tremendous pressure exerted on him by the cat-calling scumbags of Blue Church legacy media had started him off on an escape route heading around the bend. And that really wasn't a satisfactory answer on its own. Then last night a fellow stacker, the aforementioned VladTepes, got it in one.
Vlads leans in to the 'they want us dead' hypothesis, best I can tell, and wrote to me; 'Is it possible that Dr. Yeadon's knowledge and understanding of these mRNA devices might lead him rationally and soberly to the conclusion that these things are generally deadly and that the people who have pushed it have some so for that reason?'
And at that point I realised why not only Mike Yeadon, but Peter McCullough, and probably hundreds of other medical professionals, who, unlike myself and the rest of the public, fully grasp the folly of the vaccine rollout, have been led into I think the entirely wrong conclusion that dastardy depopulation is afoot. I shouldn't make light of it like that, as I'm worried as anyone that actual depopulation could ultimately occur, and be right ugly, but you know what I mean: that there is a concerted plan to reduce the global population, and that someone or something is behind it, planning away. I am convinced this is total bollocks, and that in fact we are just embroiled in a potentially disastrous clusterfuck. But let's get back to my VladTepe inspired epiphany.
I absolutely agree that it's Mike Yeadon's rational understanding of mrNA, rather than any delusion, that has led him to conclude that the people pushing vaccines have some murderous reason for doing so. I think that same scientific understanding, probably coupled with a naive morality I imagine he shares with of a lot of very compassionate people working in medicine, may have blinded him to a more overarching historical and general truth which is that a significant proportion of people from all walks of life are complete idiots and will do anything that will make them a gigantic sum of money - or more commonly just keep a roof over their heads - no matter how stupid, careless, or in many cases how immoral or dangerous it is. It's a very common psychological trait to assume your own qualities in others: I can see how dissident doctors and medical researchers such as Mike Yeadon and Pierre Kory may never have imagined up until now that any of their colleagues were acting a role, to earn a good wage, and in fact lacked any integrity or empathy, and so may as well have been lawyers or corporate hacks. But I think sadly that's the human condition. Also note how the rebel groups are made up of a combination of rank outsiders - people involved in alternative medicine for example - and those who are almost as far removed from the rank and file of their profession, but on account of their brilliance: they're miles away right at the top of it, rather than way outside: but of course they're not the people at the reins of the bureaucracy that runs the medical profession, because what caring doctor or brilliant researcher would want to do that? In every walk of life the bureaucratic and managerial roles attract the lowest quality people. Ask any entrepeneur about it and they'll tell you their biggest battle is trying to lure brains in to management: who would want to do it except a dullard? is a soul destroying role which naturally attracts people who we might call soulless.
These are the people who are calling the shots in a fiasco that I agree looks like it could have tragic outcomes ranging from what we've already seen - the infuriating, morally repugnant, and pointless sacrifice of the lives of most likely hundreds of thousands of healthy young people ostensibly to protect the old and infirm - up to - God only knows. I don't know enough about medicine to rule out an extinction event. Those warning of the perils of ADE seem very well informed, sincere, and somewhat terrified. I'm not in a position to contradict them and the arguments of those proposing mass vaccination don't ever seem very profound or logical. It's incredibly worrying, and I wish more people would do more about it.
But it's just a clusterfuck. It's not a 'depopulation plan'. Clusterfucks are the one reliable strand in human history. World War One was a clusterfuck. North Korea is a clusterfuck. Witch Hunting was a clusterfuck. Clusterfucks attracts weirdos and sadists, sure. But they just happen. By accident. All the fucking time.
Stephen Kotkin, who is completing a big study of Stalin, has a great take on this. He points out that when we look at History we join the dots so we can point to causes and factors in great or cataclysmic events. And this tends to make us assume the events were both causal and inevitable. The Great Depression led to inflation in post War Germany and sparked the rise of fascism. QED. In fact this isn't how it works. It's a chain of freaky accidents, and any chain can be broken. As far as I can see right now the only thing that's going to stop round after round of vaccination and a potential catastrophe is luck, in the form of some lucky medical quirk that prevents the vaccinated going the same way as test subjects in trials that have identified ADE, or the majority of people being swayed, by common sense actors, talking obvious common sense, in to losing faith in the vaccines, and so declining boosters and loudly complaining, whether at the ballot box or demonstrating in the street or both, if Governments and corporations continue to coerce them in to taking more and more shots. There are a lot of voices pushing back against the vaccination and I suspect they're now actually in a substantial majority, it just doesn't seem so because legacy media is suffering a long and painful death. The very worst thing we can do at a terrifying time like this is fall victim to conspiratorial thinking about who or what Bond villain might be lurking behind the curtains of Big Pharma from their secret lair in Davos or wherever. Now if you're a former chief scientist for Pfizer I imagine you move in circles in which the fatal history of corona virus vaccine development is a general standby. I imagine three years ago any senior scientist in that field would have immediately and openly responded to any suggestion that a corona virus vaccine be rushed through in a dozen weeks or so and administered to the globe by stating outright that that would be great way to risk a general holocaust. So I can see now much more clearly how, with all this weird Malthusian propaganda floating around, even a bright spark such as Mike Yeadon might have become convinced any responsible and powerful person pushing the vaccine narrative must 'want us dead' - because they know the vaccines to be potentially deadly. I say again, and loudly, I don't think that's what's happened. I think executives have got over excited about profit, some scientists have got over excited about their own talents in stabilising and delivering mRNA, the voting public have completely lost touch with their own mortality, and reality in general, and instead of thinking soberly about the unpleasant wave of flu we'll all face at some point have immediately demanded of their political class both someone to blame, and a magic wand to make it go away, on pain of immediate removal from office: see poor old Donald Trump, who did everything they screamed at him to do in response to the flu, and still only very narrowly won the 2020 election before the other side diddled him out of a tiny majority that would otherwise have been a historical landslide. And now these same idiots are cramming so much of the experimental gene therapy they stamped and screamed to be immediately delivered to them in to their already crappy immune systems that they're threatening to do away with the lot of us. They're convinced of a nice simple reassuring and sane sounding narrative: the narrative is, 'This is a medical war, we are heroes and we are going to win, because of our amazing technology: so don't worry, you are not going to die." This is a compelling lie. But we are not going to convince all the millions of people living in this reassuring fantasy world of the harsh reality of the situation - mainly the situation they've got themselves in to - by spouting bonkers narratives such as 'They want us dead'. Even if it were true - and I don't believe it is - as far as I can see, we shouldn't say so publicly because this is a propaganda emergency. What people need to be told, repeatedly, and calmly, is that the 'Drugs don't work'. The vaccines are hazardous and if you want to 'beat Covid' (a typically ludicrous formulation of the reality of dealing with an airborne flu virus), you need to stop injecting yourself with dodgy drugs, preferably yesterday. I personally tend to doubt there's anything anyone can do about this pestilent flu except cross their fingers, eat healthy and run five miles a day. And I absolutely do not believe there is any relevant or powerful figure in society actively pushing the vaccination agenda to achieve depopulation.
That's nuts, and we mustn't be driven nuts. We have an obligation to be thoroughly Kipling about all of this, and truly 'keep our heads when all around us are losing theirs'. So forget Klaus Schwab and his bent little friends. He's just the mad kid of the family. Years ago he would have been walled in, later he would have been sent in to the Church, today he gets left out to pasture in the humanities playing at apocalyptic social scientist. He's got jack shit to do with anything. Ordinary, hard working. sensible people are what matter in this pending disaster, especially the innocent young who are at no risk of dying from this blasted flu whatsoever, have their whole lives ahead of them and do not deserve to suffer lives potentially blighted by terrible ill health enforced upon them by an episode of global psychosis. The best way to do that is to protest, to vote, to refuse, and to talk sense. After all - we started all this, and we all have a responsiblity to stop it. We are - as the sheep like bleat went up in 2020 - 'all in this together'. Yes indeed. Except that unfortunately it's now a question of explaining calmly to people that's the shit we're altogether in is our own. Time to step out of it, and snap out of it.
