What would convince me to get vaccinated?

How The Censorship Movement Threatens Us All

Context:

My wife is an MD and pro-vaxx. I am pro-science.

The whole COVID response put a lot of strain on our relationship.

Things have been improving significantly since we started going to counselling sessions.

Occasionally, we are given some "homework". Mine was to write down my answer to the following question: "What would convince you to get vaccinated?".

This exercise turned out to be extremely cathartic and ended up being a lot longer than I expected!

I have only included the best links to videos and articles I have watched or read.

This letter is still work in progress. I will keep updating it with the best information I can find. (Update: I decided not to update anything and leave it “as-is” for historical purposes).

A real threat

To convince me to get vaccinated, I would have to be convinced COVID posed a real threat to me in the first place.

The reality is, COVID is nowhere near as dangerous as it is made out to be for healthy individuals.

• COVID was never a threat to young(er) healthy people. Period

• The average Case Fatality Rate (CFR) across many countries is extremely low

• Older people are 1000 times more likely to die from COVID than children

  • Age stratification is never properly discussed, yet is hugely relevant

• The median age of COVID deaths is greater than the average life expectancy in most countries

  • This fact alone completely dismantles the fearmongering narrative

  • This article and its accompanying chart really help put things into perspective

• Obesity, underlying health conditions and lack of Vitamin D are well documented risk factors

  • People who die from COVID have on average, 2.5 co-morbidities

• Early treatment (outpatient) protocols work and are effective at keeping people out of hospitals and from dying

  • Zinc and Zinc-Ionophores have been shown to inhibit viral RNA replication in cells. See 2010 publication by Ralph Baric. (Notice, this was already well known more than 10 years ago!)

  • Dr. Seheult's in his MedCram Update #34 and Update #59 explains the mechanism in detail

  • Furthermore, 100s of thousands of patients have been treated using these protocols with great success

  • Early Outpatient Treatment for COVID-19: The Evidence

  • Dr. Tyson and Dr. Fareed write about the success of their protocol in "Overcoming the COVID-19 Darkness: How Two Doctors Successfully Treated 7000 Patients"

• Natural immunity is REAL, durable and protective

  • The CDC only acknowledged this in Jan 2022. Really? it only took them 2 years?

In summary, I never felt COVID posed a real threat to me.

Ethical Clinical Trials

The vaccine clinical trials did not follow standard protocols. This is a real problem. Corners were cut and officials looked the other way in order to rush a product to market.

This needs to be resolved for future trials.

Totally independent third parties should conduct the trials without knowing who the manufacturer is.

• Pfizer trials were biased and compromised

• Trials were rushed and did not follow formal protocols

• The data was doctored to make the results look good

• The clinical end-point was protection against infection. (That's right. The end-point was never hospitalization!)

• Why is Pfizer and the FDA trying so hard to hide the trial data (for up to 75 years!) if there is nothing to hide?

• No vaccine manufacturers should be exempt from civil liability.

  • If the vaccines are as safe as they claim they should have nothing to worry about.

  • This is a deal breaker for me.

The vaccines were developed and released in record time, using a brand new technology that has never been used on humans before, for a variant that no longer exists, by pharmaceutical companies that are a law onto themselves, for a clinical end-point that was explicitly stated to prevent infection, to protect a subset of the population that were NOT included in the trials.

The vaccine trials were NOT double-blind, NOT randomized, NOT peer-reviewed, the results were fudged and the report was redacted to get approved. (It truly beggars belief! What could possibly go wrong...)

To add insult to injury, we are then forced to believe the vaccines are "Safe and Effective".

"Safe and Effective"

Effective

• We were promised the vaccines were going to stop the spread and allow people to get their lives back to normal

• Yes the vaccines were supposed to... by el gato malo, explains everything better than I ever could

Safe

The vaccines are nowhere near as safe as they are made out to be.

All vaccine injury systems all around the world show the same disturbing patterns and trends, including:

• VAERS

• UK Yellow card system

• Europe EudraVigilence system

• Australia's DEAN

Governments and health agencies have dismissed these system as unreliable and untrustworthy.

The question is: If these systems are unreliable, why haven't they been fixed yet? They have only had 12 months to do something about it. And if they can't be fixed, are they working on new and improved systems?

Of course they aren't. And, that is the problem. There is no accountability ... and it is precisely because there is no accountability that I can not trust a word they say. It's that simple. There can be no excuses for them to fail in such a spectacular manor. None. (If they can't get their reporting systems right, it really makes you wonder what else they've gotten wrong.)

Regardless, there are other means of establishing whether vaccine injuries are real or not.

• US Military System (DMED)

  • The US military has its own internal database for keeping track of all kinds of diseases and injuries to its personnel. Only military doctors are allowed to use and enter information into this system.

  • The results are incredibly disturbing and agree with all the other public adverse event systems

  • Attorney Thomas Renz reveals what multiple DoD whistle-blowers have provided him with, and it is not looking good.

  • Leaked Database Shows U.S. Military Disease Skyrocketing After Covid-19 Inoculations

  • Of course, the media will spin this as "misinformation" or come up with a good reason for why it isn't true. It always does. How convenient.

    • Update 2022-02-09: It didn't take long for the DoD to "fix" the data

    • Either way they have a massive problem on their hands. Either the vaccines are causing injuries or the overall health in the military is catastrophically abysmal

• Insurance companies

  • OneAmerica saw deaths climb 40% among the 18 - 64 age cohort during the third quarter of 2021 from the prior year. "Just to give you an idea of how bad that is, a three-sigma or a one-in-200-year catastrophe would be 10% increase over pre-pandemic" CEO Scott Davison said. "So 40% is just unheard of."

    • Source: Indiana life insurance CEO says deaths are up 40% among people ages 18-64

  • Dutch insurer Aegon, which does two-thirds of its business in the United States, is facing a similar brobdingnagian spike: "claims in the Americas in the third quarter were $111 million, up from $31 million a year earlier."

    • Source: Life insurers adapt pandemic risk models after claims jump

  • New life insurance data from Aegon shows an increase of over 258% in benefit payouts in post-vaccine 2021 vs. a year earlier

  • Every week new reports from different insurance companies reveal a disturbing trend. Claims in 2021 are much higher than in 2020. This evidence is going to be very hard to hide as insurance companies need to report these numbers to their share holders.

  • "The proof is in the pudding" as they say. Since the media will not report on any of this. We will see how it affects our own insurance premiums over the coming months

• Undertakers

  • Publicly listed undertaking companies, such as "Matthews International" have reported a 15% increase in sales in the fiscal 2022 first quarter over the same quarter a year ago.

• US Excess Mortality

  • The following website is dedicated to tracking US excess mortality rates. Here is their page for Excess Percentage

  • It's not just the US. Many countries are reporting excess deaths in 2021 over 2020. (As a reminder, 2020 was the year COVID deaths reached their peak. The vaccination campaigns started at the beginning of 2021.)

  • These are "all cause mortality deaths". Sure, it might not be the vaccines, but either way it would demonstrate a complete failure by our governments to keep us safe, no matter what it is. By why isn't anyone talking about it?

• Athletes collapsing

  • It's hard to hide collapsing athletes on live TV. But it can still be explained away...

  • 624 Athlete Cardiac Arrests, Serious Issues, 387 Dead, After COVID Shot (Article). This pages get's updated on a monthly basis. The number of reported cases seems to be accelerating with time. This is unheard of.

  • Athletes Collapsing This Is Supposed To Be Rare (Video: 4 mins)

  • Athletes Collapsing And Dying [ 400 IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS ] (Video: 13 mins)

• Vaccine injured groups

  • Real not rare has over 12K+ members, and it is growing by the week. For every single person that joined the group, there are probably 10 to 100 others that are suffering in silence

• Nomological network of cumulative evidence

  • "Nomological networks of cumulative evidence systematize this laudable objective by encouraging scholars to think of all possible sources of evidence that might test the veracity of their scientific explanations" - Gad Saad

  • "The Parasitic Mind: How Infectious Ideas Are Killing Common Sense" by Gad Saad

Sure, I get it, every source I mentioned above can be thoroughly debunked. But, think about it... what are the odds that all of these independent sources are wrong? Even the insurance company claims?

Media and Big Tech

• No balanced coverage

  • Sensationalism / Dramatization

  • No proper "risk-benefit" analyses were ever documented and carefully explained to the public

• No debate

  • No "live", open and public debates with panels of experts with differing views

  • Am I really the only one that finds this extremely disturbing?

• Misleading information

  • COVID was only a threat to the elderly and obese, with underlying health conditions

  • Focused on the number of "cases" rather than the number of deaths

  • Fearmongering

  • No distinction between dying with COVID or from COVID

  • No age stratification in any of their reporting

• Push "false dichotomies"

  • A false dichotomy is often used to misrepresent a problem and force people into accepting a predefined solution. In reality the premise of the problem is wrong and there are often many other solutions than the ones we are forced to choose between.

  • Examples:

    • If you catch COVID you will die

    • The vaccine is the ONLY cure

    • COVID is all that matters. No other deaths or diseases matter anymore.

    • Unvaccinated people are selfish and a burden on the healthcare system

      • A "burden on the healthcare system?"... do you really want to go there? If that is the case let's talk about smokers, alcoholics, drug addicts, and the obese. Which category to do you want to tackle first?

• Censorship

  • Deny natural immunity

  • Silence medical professionals with dissenting views

  • Ridicule or completely ignore early treatment protocols

  • Hide vaccine injuries

  • Ignore genuine hardships, struggles and depression caused by the lockdowns and vaccine mandates

  • "Black out" or conceal large public demonstrations and protests (including the Canadian trucker convoy)

    • Truly disturbing how they can completely hide extremely large protests from the public view

    • If you don't know where to look, you would never know there are over a 100,000 trucks heading to Ottawa Canada.

    • Actually... do you even know what I am writing about? (That would prove my point entirely)

    • The movement is gaining traction around the world. Yet the world media is silent and looking the other way...

    • Update 2022/02/11: Dr. Malone has just written an open letter to the Candian truckers. Well worth the read. He addresses many salient points.

  • Control the narrative and the information flow

    • It is frightening to see how effective they are at this

• A concerted campaign, across the world, to only push one narrative, and one narrative only:

  • "COVID is extremely dangerous to everyone, and only vaccines will allow us to get our lives back to normal"

• Witch hunts

  • Cancel opposing views

  • Vilify people who don't agree with the narrative

  • Where has all the "tolerance", "diversity" and "inclusion" gone?

This was the perfect opportunity to promote a healthy lifestyle, exercise, eat well, loose weight, take vitamin supplements such as D, C and Zinc, sleep well and wash nasal cavities if exposed. Instead, the opposite was encouraged: Isolate, stay at home, order take-away foods, drink alcohol, and watch TV to keep obsessing over the COVID cases.

The censorship is UNDENIABLE.

Please remind me... When in the history of humanity did the people doing the censoring turn out to be the good guys?

The complete media blackout on vaccine injuries, and the demonization of dissenting views, is enough to tell me something seriously wrong is going on.

Science

• No scientific inquiry

  • Discrepancies should be thoroughly documented, investigated and explained to the public, such as:

    • Sweden. Their COVID response was a resounding success, yet no one talks about it. Why?

    • Israel and Singapore. (Not to mention Australia!). The COVID cases in these countries post vaccinations sky rocketed. Where were the scientific explanations?

    • Uttar Pradesh, Japan, Bangladesh, Sub-Saharan Africa managed to control the COVID pandemic extremely well. Why haven't we been told what they did differently? What is the explanation? Or more precisely, why isn't there an explanation?

• The scientific method was NOT followed

  • No one held Big Pharma accountable. They are a law unto themselves

  • Obscene amounts of money are being made and no one is looking at how Big Pharma is buying out governments, media and health agencies, all around the world

    • Why would they ever want the pandemic to end?

  • Hospitalization data records are being manipulated to suit the narrative

    • Dr. Peter McCullough compares the US hospitalization data to that from around the world

    • The data is clear all around the world, including Australia. The vaccines do not prevent hospitalization. Here is an article by the ABC:

      • Why it's important to look at the 'bigger picture' behind COVID-19 intensive care numbers

      • The whole article is Orwellian in nature

      • The premise is wrong, and key pieces of information are not addressed, such as age-stratification and co-morbidities

      • How much longer are we going to put up with these deceptive articles? The vaccines are a complete failure, and it is no wonder, they were never designed for Omicron in the first place

      • One thing is absolutely clear, the vaccines do not prevent hospitalization. That is not surprising really, because the clinical end-point was protection against infection. It was never hospitalization!

    • This raises another interesting observation. Articles like the one from the ABC are quick to start "educating" people about the complexity of the mathematics, and that we need to carefully look at the percentages of hospitalized within the different categories. (Vaccinated or unvaccinated). Where were these articles, when we needed them to educate people about the importance of age-stratification, to help people understand the real threat of COVID to them (or the lack thereof)? Why stop at age-stratification they should have also delved into co-morbidities and other risk factors.

      • That's right, this "narrative" didn't suit them at the time... Fearmongering sells so much better! Ah the hypocrisy!

      • If the media feels compelled to start educating the public about mathematical and statistical concepts, may I point them to the excellent work by:

        • Prof. Norman Fenton addressed this in one of his videos “Analysing COVID vaccine efficieny and safety statistics”. Here is the accompanying journal preprint : Official mortality data for England suggest systematic miscategorisation of vaccine status and uncertain effectiveness of Covid-19 vaccination

  • We have absolutely ZERO long term safety data but "scientist" claim the vaccines are safe

    • This goes against everything true science is really about. You can't make a claim without data. You just can't do that and call it science!

• Science by consensus is no science at all!

  • A panel of scientist who all agree on an emerging technology is not scientific. Period

  • Scientific consensus simply does not exist. If there are no opposing views to address, we are simply not operating in the realm of science. They have to stop kidding themselves and deceiving the public

• No proper understanding of the underlying laws of nature

  • Countless predictions and models have been completely wrong

  • Millions of people were expected to die from COVID

  • Sweden alone was predicted to have 80,000 excess deaths. They only had 6,000

  • The vaccines were promoted and sold to the public as a way to get our lives back to normal

  • We were told vaccines would stop the virus from spreading

  • We were told lock downs would be effective

  • We were told masks were effective

  • Natural immunity was completely ignored and discounted, when in fact, it should have ben heralded as the key out of this pandemic

    • Vaccinating people with natural immunity is going to go down in history as one of the biggest blunders ever made

• Where are the "cost-benefit" analyses?

  • The lockdowns have caused a lot more harm than good

  • There was a huge incentive for the vaccines to work as they were promoted as the ONLY solution to get us out of the lockdowns

  • The total lack of good honest debates over "cost-benefit" analyses is a tell-tale sign something is fundamentally wrong with the "plan" we were sold

• No understanding of the concept of "falsifiability"

  • A careful study of Karl Popper's concepts is in order

  • Establish "stopping" conditions or "kill switches" upfront

• No "checks and balances"

  • Do you really believe Big Pharma is more interested in people's well being than in keeping their share holders happy?

  • To me this is nothing short of putting Dracula in charge of the blood bank and switching off all security cameras. What could possibly go wrong?

  • Why do we keep falling for the same mistakes over and over again?

• Good transparent data sets should be open and freely available to the public

  • And should include information on people's age, gender, number of co-morbidities and body weight index, to name a few. (I can't over emphasize how important open, transparent AND complete data sets are.)

• No accountability

  • Targets and "goal posts" keep changing

    • We were told right at the beginning 60% herd immunity would be enough to stop the pandemic

    • Some countries have reached vaccinations rates in excess of 95% and the COVID cases are "booming"

    • When are we going to face reality and come to the realization they have absolutely no clue what they are talking about

  • Definitions keep changing:

    • "Vaccine"

    • "Herd immunity"

    • “Science”

    • How on earth are they able to change the definition of crucial words to suit their own agendas. There is nothing more Orwellian than this. It is certainly NOT science!

    • As Dr. Simon Goddek aptly wrote: "In George Orwell's novel 1984, the reality was twisted to manipulate the human mind. This was achieved by implementing Newspeak to limit people's ability to express themselves. The following article about the manipulation of language as a weapon of mind control is worth a read. You will see many parallels: https://bit.ly/3jq7j2N"

• Science is no longer science but has become a belief system

  • Vaccin, Croyances & Réalité by Didier Raoult: Vaccines, religious beliefs and reality

    • There are well documented cases of scientific fraud, that even duped "the experts", such as Theranos

    • What have we learned from this? and what safety measures have been put in place so situations like this never happen again?

      • This is not a rhetorical question. If you know the answers please tell me.

Cult : "A great, often excessive, admiration for a person or idea"

I struggled naming this section because I didn't want to give it a negative connotation. However Chambers definition is precisely what I have in mind:

A great, often excessive, admiration for a person or idea - Chambers Dictionary (13th Edition)

The following points are drawn from my own experience, having been part of a group who had an excessive admiration for their leader.

With COVID, the same excessive admiration is directed towards certain "health" leaders AND the "vaccines", which have been elevated to "saviour" status.

• Control

  • Trust the leader wholeheartedly. Never question them with legitimate facts or point out their illogical arguments

  • No dissenting views are permitted nor tolerated

  • Control information sources

  • Control thoughts

    • How and what to think

  • Control movements

    • Where and when you are allowed to go somewhere

• Counselling sessions

  • Endless counselling sessions to break your spirit and conform you to their way of thinking

  • Any resistance, frustrations or disdain are quickly ceased upon as irrefutably proof of your depravity

    • Validates and reinforces their own self-righteousness

    • Justifies their assessment of you as a debauched reprobate

  • They are always right. You are always wrong. Period

• Ad-hominem attacks

  • Always attack the messenger. Never address the validity of the message

  • Destroy people's character and reputation

  • I can not emphasize enough how effective this approach is. The leader only needs to say "one (code) word" to the collective, in order to utterly destroy the credibility of an opponent. That's it, no other explanations are required. The collective believes this is completely acceptable. They look up to the leader with unfettered awe and admiration

• Labelling

  • Arguments are just as quickly and easily dismissed with the correct "label". No further explanations are required

• Attack is the best defence

  • They vigorously attack and denounce the very things they are the most guilty of

    • This is extremely effective at disorienting the collective. How could the leader possibly be guilty of the things he denounces the most vigorously?

• Immune to criticism

  • Pre-emption

    • Disarm and dilute any possible "outside" accusations by addressing and naming them first

      • Again this is very disorienting for the collective. Regardless of whether the accusations are absolutely true and legitimate. Addressing all possible accusations ahead of time gives the leader the appearance of a "prophet". It's curious the leader always knows what the fiercest accusations will be ahead of time... and is able to pre-empt them. The collective no longer focuses on the substance of the accusations but rather on the fact that the leader was able to accurately predict the accusations. It only reinforces their trust and faith in the leader. (Oh, the irony...)

    • Criticize and marginalize your fiercest critics first

      • Paint them in a bad light, ahead of time, and the collective will automatically ignore them, no matter how true or factual their claims may be

  • Total trust and loyalty from the collective

  • By this stage any criticism from outside sources is rendered completely ineffective

    • "Outsiders" are demonized. Anything they say is considered "evil"

    • The demonization starts early and is relentless. Sometimes explicit, but most of the time it is subtle and implicit, but everyone knows exactly what is being said or implied

• Protection

  • The collective feels safe and protected by their leader. They feel exceedingly privileged to have such a leader

  • The collective gladly and willingly submit every aspect of their lives to the control of the leadership

    • The leadership would categorically deny this, however actions speak much louder than words

    • This is no different to large portions of the population gladly giving up all their freedoms and liberties in order to be guaranteed their "safety" and "protection" from a perceived deadly threat (such as COVID)

• Paganism (as a side note)

  • I have always been fascinated by the Inca civilization, but never could understand why such an advanced civilization could justify sacrificing their children. Now I understand. It was never as complicated as I thought

  • People will do the most irrational things when gripped by fear and superstition, especially if they believe it will ultimately benefit the collective

  • If we know the vaccines do not stop the spread of the virus, and we know that children are not affected by the disease, (not to mention the large majority of them have already been infected and have natural immunity), why are we injecting them with a substance we have absolutely zero long term safety data for? (Seriously, what are we trying to achieve here? Is it really worth the risk?)

  • Not only is it incomprehensibly risky, it is incredibly selfish. We know children are 1,000 times less susceptible to COVID than the elderly. Why are we not sending those doses to third world countries that need it most?

    • Or, could it be that Big Pharma is only interested in "selling" their doses to countries that can afford them? and that richer countries don't really care about poorer countries anyway...

    • Ahhh, I get it, it really is all about posturing and virtue signalling, after all!

• Sacrifice

  • Even though children are not physically killed, there is definitely an element of putting what you hold dearest on the line, in order to demonstrate your allegiance to the leader and the collective.

  • These "sacrifices" are often used to assess people's level of commitment to the leader and the collective

    • In so many ways this is reminiscent of what is happening now. Mothers are wilfully subjecting their own children, the object of their deepest love, care and affection, to an experimental procedure that has zero long term safety data, AND can not possibly protect them from COVID because it is of no threat to them in the first place!

    • What does "reason", "logic" and a balanced "risk-benefit" analysis have to do with any of this. It is all purely driven by emotions and is designed their measure of commitment to the cause.

• Brainwashed

  • No amount of factual information will convince or change the collective's mindset. They wholeheartedly believe the leader and nothing, absolutely nothing will change their minds. The leadership is always right. Always! Period

  • This feels so disarming and helpless. Nothing you say or do will make a difference. No amount of facts or evidence will have any impact on their beliefs whatsoever

  • No amount of expert opinions from outside sources will sway them. They simply will refuse to even read or watch dissenting views, and feel fully justified because they "know" "in their hearts" that they they can fully trust the leader

  • They only ever listen to the leader

    • As mentioned before the demonization of any and all "outsiders" starts early and is relentless

• Circular reasoning

  • The leadership is always right. If you ever doubts that, it clearly shows you are wrong, because the leadership is always right

• Good intentions

  • To make matters worse the leadership genuinely and sincerely believe they are doing what is best for the collective. They truly believe they are motivated by the most genuine and purest of intentions. Their motives are so pure and righteous, they can not even start to perceive how they could possibly be wrong or mistaken

Human Rights and Liberties

This is the most important topic for me.

• Freedom of choice, bodily autonomy and individual sovereignty.

  • Liberty

  • Freedom

  • Informed consent

  • These are inalienable human rights that have been enshrined in the Nuremberg code:

The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, overreaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision. This latter element requires that before the acceptance of an affirmative decision by the experimental subject there should be made known to him the nature, duration, and purpose of the experiment; the method and means by which it is to be conducted; all inconveniences and hazards reasonably to be expected; and the effects upon his health or person which may possibly come from his participation in the experiment.

• Choice of treatments (or the lack thereof)

  • There are plenty of early treatment protocols that are cheap and have been shown to be extremely effective

  • TGA bans Ivermectin (IVM)

  • The argument they used to ban IVM in order to force people to get vaccinated, is precisely the reason I refuse to get vaccinated. This is pure tyranny. I will resist it with every fibre in my being.

  • Why couldn't they let people take both?

  • Give people a choice. They will quickly figure out what works best. If IVM really doesn't work it wouldn't take long for people to realize that and try something else. Perhaps even vaccines if they were shown to really be safe and effective.

  • These measures, along with destroying the "Doctor-Patient" relationship, is proof positive the whole system has gone mad.

  • How can ONE solution be the best solution for everyone?

• Censorship

  • Those who cannot convince censor by el gato malo, again sums it up perfectly

• Mandates / Coercion / Black-Mail

  • What ever happened to the Nuremberg code? What ever happened to "informed consent"? and no coercion?

  • Choosing between loosing your job or getting vaccinated is not a choice. That IS the definition of black mail.

  • Why do we never learn these lessons from history?

• "The 4 tendencies personality traits" by Gretchen Rubin

  • "Upholders" and "obligers" make up 60% of the population. This explains a lot

• Experiments that show these type of human behaviours are absolutely possible given the right circumstances:

  • Asch conformity experiment: Demonstrates how individuals will choose to side with the majority, even when it goes against their better judgment

    • The emperor has no clothes!

      • Up until the child pointed it out, everyone felt comfortable extolling the beauty of the emperor's fictitious clothes

    • It is one thing for people to conform with the majority against their better judgment if they are able to ascertain the veracity of the facts they are presented with, for themselves. It is quite another, when these facts can't be verified and people are simply urged to "trust the experts" or "trust the science"

  • Prospect Theory: Fear and loss aversion (in this case, the loss of life) causes people to act completely irrationally. There is no limit to the lengths people will go to in order to avoid loosing their life

    • The flip side is that they will demand high levels of certainty in order to return their lives to normal. In other words they will be happy to compromise their lifestyle until they feel certain things are safe again

    • The duality of this mechanism can easily be used to manipulate people by controlling fear (the perceived threat of the virus), as well as, the perceived efficacy (or certainty) of the proposed solution (vaccines)

    • This naturally leads to "Stockholm syndrome"

  • Stockholm Syndrome: Hostages develop a psychological bond with their captors (or in this case leaders) during captivity (or isolation)

    • It is undeniable some people are willing to stay in isolation for as long as is needed to guarantee their safety, even if there is no real and tangible threat to them in the first place. They will even praise their leaders for imposing such harsh measures because it keeps them "safe".

Our planned two-week investigation into the psychology of prison life had to be ended after only six days because of what the situation was doing to the college students who participated.

      • The exploitation of fear (inflating perceived threat levels)

      • Shame (conflating compliance with virtue)

      • Peer pressure (portraying non-compliers as a deviant minority)

  • Milgram experiments: Obedience to authority figures. The banality of evil

  • Nelsonian knowledge: Willful blindness

• Totalitarianism

  • Totalitarianism is not the same as dictatorship. Please carefully listen to part 2 of Prof. Desmet's interview with George Christensen.

  • In a recent interview, Jordan Peterson clearly reveals his consternation at how quickly and easily we rushed to imitate totalitarian societies. He has spent decades studying totalitarian movements and societies

    • The video is only 10 mins long but is worth watching and listening to multiple times. He raises plenty of salient points that need to be pondered and addressed

  • Unvaccinated people are being (wrongfully) demonized, based on a false dichotomy

    • The premises and assumptions are wrong

    • The problem statement is purposely deceptive

    • Early treatment protocols save lives, prevent hospitalizations, are cheap, simple to administer, and are extremely effective

  • Vaccine passports

    • People are being stripped of their freedoms

    • As a society, are we really comfortable marginalizing even ostracizing a group of people for not conforming to the collective? Even when peer-reviewed journal articles are crystal clear. Doubly vaxxed and boosted individuals are just as likely to catch and spread the virus and their viral loads are the same, if not higher than unvaccinated people?

    • Emotions have completely blinded peoples ability to look at things rationally. Where has "common-sense" gone?

    • Is this really how we want policies to be made moving forward?

Conspiracy Theory

• I am really sorry to disappoint you here but this is the full extent of my conspiracy theory. Everything can be explained very simply by fear, greed, power, control and the love of money. Did I mention greed and power?

• Big corporations and investments funds want to make more money

• Governments around the world want more power and control

• That's it. There is nothing more to it. A perfect match made in hell

It is worth noting:

• Hospitals, doctors and researchers are "influenced" by large donations and grants

  • On the flip side, those who dissent run the risk of being de-professionalized and ostracized

• Companies must keep their share holders happy by continually increasing their profits each year

  • How do you suggest Big Pharma accomplish this?

  • How is Big Pharma going to keep increasing their profits if people stop "boosting" themselves and COVID is no longer a threat?

    • Does this explain why (even) children are not spared?

    • What next? dogs and cats? why not cows and sheep? (Jacinda will be delighted to vaccinate sheep. )

  • How are politicians going to get their "kick backs" if Big Pharma no longer has money to grease their pockets?

• Large investment funds own large portions of Big Pharma, Main Stream Media and BigTech. That is a fact

  • Do you see any conflict of interest here?

  • What could possibly go wrong?

• Incentives

  • Hospital

    • Bonus payments for treating COVID patients

    • Incentive to test everyone for COVID even if they are not admitted for COVID

  • The FDA gets 50% of its budget from Pharma

    • How can you claim there are no conflicts of interest?

• Policies

  • Hospitals

    • Why are hospitals forcing nurses and healthcare workers to get vaccinated when the majority of them already have natural immunity?

    • Instead of accepting natural immunity, hospitals have created a crisis of their own making, right in the middle of a pandemic, when these workers are needed the most

    • Seriously, are the people in charge of these institutions completely demented? Do they even have a functioning brain? I really believe we should carry out a biopsy just to make sure. Perhaps we could create a PCR test for that

    • You know natural immunity is real, and yet you have never commented on the absurdity of these policies. I'm genuinely curious. Why?

    • Not to mention the fact these same health workers were treated as heroes a year ago. They did the hard yards, put their lives at risk, yet are now vilified and forced to loose their livelihoods

  • Booster shots

    • COVID cases surge every time a country goes on a "booster" campaign. Every-single-time!

    • I think people have forgotten the definition of insanity, so I will put here, just in case: "Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result." - Albert Einstein (?)

• Gaslighting

  • There is some seriously good gaslighting going on. People speaking the truth are labelled "conspiracy theorists". These tactics work. They really do. This is really no different to cult practices. Attack and vilify your opponents first and label them in order to deflect and avoid any real accountability or honest and fair debate. I know what I am talking about. I experienced and lived through this first hand. What is happening now is no different, just on a much larger scale

  • I would highly recommend listening to Brian Peckford being interviewed by Jordan Peterson on the Canadian Constitutional Crisis. It is absolutely worth listening to as it clearly demonstrates:

    • The complete media bias and censorship when it comes to reporting on anything that threatens the narrative, even if it has nothing to do with science. He was forced to seek out Jordan's platform to reach the Canadian public

    • The Canadian Constitution has been highjacked. Unfortunately the same has happened to many democratic countries around the world, including Australia. This is deeply troubling.

Antidote

• "If you are brainwashed, how would you know you are brainwashed?"

  • This is a serious question. One worth pondering

    • If you have never thought about this question, how would you know how to protect yourself?

    • How do you protect yourself against a threat you don't even know exists?

• A willingness to be wrong

  • Start from the premise you are wrong then build from there

  • Carefully document all your assumptions and causal deductions

  • Review your mental models often and update them in light of new information

    • Does reality match your expectations (either good or bad)? If not, update your models

  • Keep track of the updates

• Welcome and encourage opposing views

  • Rather than dispel them, understand the assumptions and context that lead someone to reach these conclusions

  • Learn to "steel man" arguments you don't agree with. (i.e. learn to argue the case better than those who hold these arguments to be true)

  • Learn to hold opposing views simultaneously in your mind without necessarily having to reconcile them

  • Read extensively from multiple different authors and points of views

• "Bake" falsifiability into all your hypotheses

• Establish feedback loops for accountability

  • Understand the duality of controllability and observability

  • Define your "kill switch" or "stop clauses" upfront

  • Measure outcomes, review and refine your mental models often. Document everything carefully

  • (I intend to write a lot more on this topic but the best reference for now is Donella Meadows' article on Leverage Points: Places to Intervene in a System, or her book "Thinking in Systems: A Primer")

• Always keep Prof. Richard Feynman's quote in mind:

  • "The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool."

Throughout history, there have always been a few people who have tried to control the many by speaking with authority.

In the Old Testament, there were many false prophets who would claim to speak in the name of God, possibly for their own gain. So God gave us the following instructions, which is as relevant now, as it was then:

"When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him." - Deuteronomy 18:22

Replace "prophet" with "scientist" and "LORD" with "science", and the principles are the same.

Scientists that make false predictions should be held accountable. They do not know what they speak of. This is the litmus test. People should not be afraid to stop listening to them.

This verse is important to me as it was instrumental in helping me clearly see what was going on inside the collective. The leadership made some predictions that never eventuated. I knew then, I no longer needed to be afraid of them. The same is true today. We must stop being afraid and stop listening to scientist who keep making false predictions. Instead, we must hold them accountable.

Finally, the "fear of death" will compromise our judgement and hold us captive our entire lives (Hebrews 2:14-15). I would rather die a free man than live in captivity. Jesus said "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." John 10:10

Quotes by Prof. Richard Feynman (Nobel Prize 1965)

I will leave you with some of my favorite quotes by Richard Feynman, the best Physics professor and lecturer I never had:

"I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned."

"Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts."

"Don't pay attention to "authorities," think for yourself."

"It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart you are. If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong."

"If you thought that science was certain - well, that is just an error on your part."

"We absolutely must leave room for doubt or there is no progress and no learning. There is no learning without having to pose a question. And a question requires doubt. People search for certainty. But there is no certainty."

"First you guess. Don't laugh, this is the most important step. Then you compute the consequences. Compare the consequences to experience. If it disagrees with experience, the guess is wrong. In that simple statement is the key to science. It doesn't matter how beautiful your guess is or how smart you are or what your name is. If it disagrees with experience, it's wrong. That's all there is to it."

"Have no respect whatsoever for authority; forget who said it and instead look what he starts with, where he ends up, and ask yourself, "Is it reasonable?""

"I'm smart enough to know that I'm dumb."

And most importantly:

"The highest forms of understanding we can achieve are laughter and human compassion."

Selah.

Summary

Yes, a lot would have to change to convince me to get vaccinated. Not least, the return to proper scientific inquiry where differing views are not only allowed but vigorously encouraged, and wrong predictions are not simply dismissed and ignored, but rather, thoroughly investigated and reported on.

The issue is not whether vaccines are safe or not. It's not even about whether they are effective or not.

My premise is that the whole political, scientific and humanitarian response to COVID is TOXIC.

It's not the outcome, per say, that troubles me. It is the process, or the lack thereof. More precisely:

• The total lack of any rigorous and transparent scientific process

  • Why does Pfizer and the FDA want to hide the trial data for the next 75 years?

  • Why has Sweden's response not been more carefully studied? and disseminated to the world?

  • Why weren't alarm bells heeded when Israel, Ireland, Gibraltar and Singapore had sky rocketing COVID cases following their mass vaccination campaigns?

• The total lack of accountability

  • Why were the goal posts allowed to move? (repeatedly)

  • Why were definitions for "vaccine", "herd immunity" and “science” allowed to change?

  • Why were health officials never held accountable when all their predictions have been shown to be blatantly false. They have no clue what they are talking about. It's obvious, but everyone seems content to keep listening and following their delusionary fantasies. This is NOT science!

• The total lack of open and transparent debates between experts with differing views, broadcast "live" on TV

  • Not to mention the total lack of any detailed "risk-benefit" analysis

• The complete and total lack of open, honest, fair and transparent news reporting by the main stream media and big tech platforms

  • Are we really comfortable with all the silencing, censoring, deplatforming, cancelling and vilifying that is currently going on?

  • Doesn't it trouble you, that you rarely hear of opposing views, or if you do, they are immediately denigrated and silenced? (It's so convenient, isn't it? but doesn't it trouble you?)

  • This ALONE, is enough for me to see something seriously nefarious is going on

  • Not to mention the vaccine-injured, who are real and many, yet are completely ignored and abandoned. Is this really the type of society you want to live in?

• And most importantly the complete erosion of our freedoms and liberties

It really is that simple.

For me to be convinced to get vaccinated I want to be able to make an informed decision, with everything it implies, starting with addressing and fixing all the points listed above.

This is nothing new. All this has been spelled out perfectly before. I'm only paraphrasing the Nuremberg code, which I will include again below (with my own emphasis):

The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, overreaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision. This latter element requires that before the acceptance of an affirmative decision by the experimental subject there should be made known to him the nature, duration, and purpose of the experiment; the method and means by which it is to be conducted; all inconveniences and hazards reasonably to be expected; and the effects upon his health or person which may possibly come from his participation in the experiment.

How many of these points have been violated? Not only by commission but also by omission?

Why do we keep making the same mistakes over and over again? Why do we never learn from our mistakes?

Addendum

The similarities between what I experienced in the collective and the COVID response, are exactly the same. It is truly disturbing to see the same underlying dynamics at play.

I wake up, everyday, asking myself "What if I am wrong?", and then proceed to painstakingly rebuild a logic tree from first principles.

The same answer keeps surfacing day after day, which is... the censorship is UNDENIABLE. Censorship vitiates a logic tree. You simply can NOT construct a proper logical argument without free-speech. It is impossible!

There is no freedom of speech. There is no open, honest and transparent debates.

As much as you want to make this purely a "health" issue, it is not. It is putrid to the core.

I will gladly side with the giants in science, such as Prof. Richard Feynman (Nobel Prize 1965), Prof. Luc Montagnier (Nobel Prize 2008), Prof. Didier Raoult, Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Robert Malone, Dr. Mike Yeadon, Prof. Mattias Desmet, Prof. Jordan Peterson, and many others who have been raising the alarm that something FUNDAMENTALLY wrong is going on.

Admittedly, I know you will find something negative to say about all them. I guess, it gives you every right to completely ignore and disregard them. As I mentioned before, nothing I say or do will make any difference. People need to make up their own minds for themselves.

I will keep updating this letter with the best information I can find. I have found this exercise to be tremendously cathartic and beneficial. I hope you find it useful.
