@ absolute galore
Hows about Avarus bastardis for the genus. Then you can further categorize into handy subgroups–psychopols, academia nuts, charlatiods, pilfering douches, and the all-encompassing sakoúla vromiás (lutum lapides sacculi) when the particulars are not clear.
It sounds like long article or book could be written on this. Or a song. 😉

I know how devastating the results can be when someone with sociopathic tendencies controls the narrative. My ex fits the profile of NPD. He hired an attorney with sociopathic tendencies. His attorney slandered me — with no evidence — to the Commissioner (handles child support)…so much that the Commissioner ignored my ex’s perjury, and set our incomes as nearly equal (despite evidence my ex made 3 times what I did.). Meanwhile, behind my back he and his gf talked trash about me to the kids’ behavioral health support staff. I was sidelined in meetings, with no idea what was going on.for months. I got this straightened out with the behavioral health staff, but my ex used the notes of the staff discussing the lies told them by my ex&gf to land a petition to remove custody of my kids from me. I was embroiled in a court mess for the next 2.25 years, and racked up an insane amount of debt…all because my ex and his attorney managed to control the narrative.
The narrative is very important.

@ upstateNYer – thx for info @ clotting info from Hoffa
My friend was vaccinated as soon as it was available…she had been getting twice weekly Covid PCR tests for months just so she could see her husband in the nursing home twice a week for 15 minutes. Once she was vaccinated she could see him daily for 30 minutes. (It makes me so angry…all they needed to do was prophylaxis with HCQ or ivermectin…. Grrr..)Glad my parents decided not to get jabbed for a cruise.
@ Germ — don’t have time to watch Hoffe video at the moment — are you (or anyone else here) aware of a timeframe for these clots/microclots?
A long term client and dear friend in her 80s was diagnosed with some sort of “mini-stroke” caused by blood clots 2 weeks ago. Her blood pressure was very elevated. They couldn’t do an MRI to get a good picture of her brain because of her pacemaker, and the CT scan didn’t show anything. Her Covid vaccinations were in Dec 2020 and Jan 2021, Moderna vaccine. She scoffed at me mentioning that the Covid vaccine could cause this, because her last vaccination was in January. I did a little bit of searching on timeframe for clotting problems from vaccines, but didn’t find anything conclusive beyond the first few weeks post-vaccination.
The word “parasite” is very appropriate. Who likes a parasite? It offers no benefit, only weighs the victim down. We take ivermectin to rid ourselves of parasites.(!) Parasites usually take from victims purely for their own sake — it is in opposition to a symbiotic relationship — symbiosis is something to strive for.
We can call “the elites” …
The Parasitic Class
Parasites for short, i.e. “the parasites” instead of “the elites”Ben Swann on Biden saying he’ll send government agents door to door to make sure the unvaccinated have the “facts” about vaccine safety and know where to get vaccinated, as well as the Arizona Attorney General’s response (abt 6 min video):
https://www.facebook.com/BenSwannRealityCheck/posts/361813901970292Text of AZ AG’s letter:
Hmmm…
If calling them elites is allowing them to frame the narrative then we need to change what they are called. It is one way to wrest back the narrative and take back our power.The first term that comes to mind is “puppet masters” but that still insinuates control. Evil geniuses? Enemies of liberty?
(Brainstorming this is welcome.)
For that matter, “the 1%” is much better than “elites.” “1%” doesn’t automatically insinuate control or elevation.
Got in an elevator, headed to visit a client at the local retirement community. A lady was entering the elevator just before me, she was unmasked, I was masked. “Is it okay if I share the elevator with you?” I asked.
“Are you vaccinated?” She replied.
“No,” I said — her body stiffened and she looked stressed, “I already had Covid and I recovered. I am immune.”
Her posture softened a little. “Well, you should still get the vaccine.” She paused, then continued, “For added protection.”
“I know that is what has been said, but I have researched this extensively, and I disagree.”
I could tell that she was very uncomfortable with my response. And then her level came up and she exited.
~~~~~
Yet, if those who have done the research, seen the patients with adverse vaccine reactions, mined through the VAERs data, and/or followed the work of those doing these things are not willing to stand up and be counted as dissidents, who is going to stand up? I’m sure there are many who are uncomfortable about the vaccines but haven’t done the research and aren’t sure of which choice to make. If we stand up, then it becomes so much easier for those who are less confident to also stand with us, and learn from us.
(Oh, and it is amusing when I realize I have such strong convictions about “standing for what I believe in,” recognizing that I was trained in Sunday School to be this way, the learning stuck, but the dogma it was attached to originally didn’t survive life’s vicissitudes.)
Moderna speedy mRNA vaccine…
You know all of the movies that have evil, mad scientists.
Yeah.
That’s the fictionalized version of today’s Covid vaccine reality.I like to listen to the Prof. Richard Wolff of Democracy at Work. I have found over the years that he has a shrewd sense when it comes to economics. It has been frustrating to me when people that I genuinely respect can’t see through the Covid narrative…he has been one of those people.
But…his perspicacity is beginning to shine through. His podcast/radio program is available on Youtube, among other locations. He has begun pointing out the shower of wealth that has begun to rain down upon the pharmaceutical companies producing the vaccines with the EUAs. Oh, he says that he believes that we should have contained the virus with lockdowns, and he is convinced that many, many “frontline workers” have died. (I’m sure some quantity have…but the nice, young morbidly obese employee at the local grocery store is still doing just fine.)
However, the program from two weeks ago pointed out that vaccine making companies are talking about boosters, and that current science is not suggesting boosters are necessary — but, oh, how lucrative the boosters would be for the vaccine companies. Last week he pointed out that in the past year there have been 8 newly minted billionaires — and all 8 are associated with companies producing the vaccines. The two wealthiest of these 8 are at the heads of — you guessed it! — Moderna and BionTech (partnered with Pfizer on that vaccine,) with more than 4 billion each.
And there you have it: why are vaccines being shoved in our arms, at first by invitation, then by bribes, and later with the stick? Because it vaccums up billions of dollars and deposits them in the accounts of those who are already extraordinarily more wealthy than I (and probably more wealthy than you, too.)
Thanks to Doc Robinson for answering my question regarding the T-Detect test yesterday and clarifying my understanding of the innate vs. adaptive immune system.

“ Unvaccinated people do more than merely risk their own health. They’re also a risk to everyone if they become infected with coronavirus, infectious disease specialists say”
So, basically what CNN is saying is
Unvaccinated people are unclean!! (Biblical term)
Unvaccinated people have cooties!! (School playground term)@ doctors (or those who have run across this bit of information)
Yesterday there was an article about how in some people T-cells that are a part of the innate immune system attack and clear Covid so quickly from the body that Covid-specific antibodies are never produced. I am conjecturing that this might be the case for my kids — who were around my mother hours before she showed symptoms, and were around me as well hours before I showed symptoms, as well as sharing a home with me while I was symptomatic, and yet never had any symptoms, never tested positve (PCR), and my daughter tested negative months later for antibodies. So I have a question:
Would the T-detect test come up as positive (immune to Covid from past infection) in someone who never developed antibodies because their innate immune system dispatched Covid quickly?
I’m unsure because I don’t understand the exact mechanisms of the T-detect test. Does it detect *any* T-cell that attacks Covid? Or does it only detect T-cells that have been specifically primed to attack Covid?
I can see easily how the narrative of kids dispatching Covid easily with their innate immune system, and thereby not acquiring lifetime immunity might be used to argue that kids should be vaccinated, to ensure that they have Covid-specific antibodies.
“How many deaths will it take ’til he knows/that too many people have died?”
Will be singing Blowin’ in the Wind later this afternoon at the local retirement community. Was reviewing the lyrics, making sure that they are solid. My emotions caught me a bit on that line. How many indeed?
My friend from there asked me this last night after we had reviewed our plan for today’s performance, “Now that you see that there are practically zero problems from these vaccines will you change your position on getting the [covid] vaccine?”
So I briefly educated him — nearly 6,000 dead according to VAERS.
“But that is not very many when compared to all of the vaccinations?”
I countered with: “The covid vaccines have been given out to roughly as many people as usually take the annual flu vaccine. Usually, about 40 people die each year from the flu vaccine. 40 versus 6,000 — that seems like a lot.”
He replied: “I haven’t seen that data.”
“No,” I said, “But I’ve seen the data. There is a lot of censorship going on.”
@ absolute galore
<< Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?
They could at least put it at the top. That way I would not waste my time reading the damn thing looking for a smidgen of truth that might have gotten through. Crazy.>>LMAO
Thanks for my first good laugh of the day. 😉Well, this past year I added “teaching classes via Zoom on how to use Zoom” for folks at the retirement community to the repertoire of “things that I do to make a living.” If the Delta variant is so catchable and contagious to the vaccinated, there may still be a need to teach the classes this next fall. Gotta find the silver linings.
Germ:
<<T he results indicate that in some people, exposure to SARSCoV2 elicits an innate and T-cell immune response, leading to an abortive infection, without development of antibodies (seroconversion).>>I suspect that may be the status of my kids who quarantined with me, with repeated negative PCR tests. The frustrating part is that this information will be used (twisted) to tell us that those who already had Covid need to be vaccinated, that all should be vaccinated…when that just isn’t the case.
So…
The spike protein can cause something in the brain that looks like Alzheimer’s??
Could someone be subsequently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s that didn’t have it previously, just because of the Covid vaccine?
(I have an elderly friend, recently diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, but with no noticeable signs of dementia as yet. And she has been put into a study for a new Alzheimer’s drug.)Well…for young people contemplating a career in medicine, cardiology and neurology may be some very in-demand specialties for the next few decades. (Probably some other specialties that deal with Covid vaccine side effects…these were just the two that immediately came to mind. Oh, and the heart problem my friend is facing is, naturally, inflammation.)
Well, I was wondering if this would happen, and this may be the start.
I know a lot of people at the local retirement community. One woman has been my client for over a decade — in that time she has also become a friend. (She comes to see me when I sing.) I just got off of the phone with her. She has just begun to have heart problems. She has undergone her first battery of tests. She leans right politically, and is more aware of the problems regarding the covid vaccine than my left leaning friends. She suspects the vaccine. She had a terrible time of it after the second dose — she was feverish, had a migrane, and pressure/pain in her chest for three days. The heart problems are surfacing 4 months after her second vaccine dose, so there is no obvious link at this point. She asked her cardiologist if the vaccine could have caused this — she says that he got very quiet and said that he would find out what is going on.
My aunt is schizophrenic and has been institutionalized the past few years after she could no longer manager herself in a subsidized “independent living” situation. Two Sundays past my mom mentioned that my aunt has had a problem with very bad tremors in her hands. (My aunt already had some minor “parkinson-like” tremors brought on by meds for schizophrenia, so this is a sudden worsening.) The insitution believes that her meds must be causing this, and are thinking about changing her meds again. I asked, Mom, was she vaccinated? And my mom realized that the vaccine could be the cause. Now my mom will be inquiring, when did the increased tremors start? And, what were the dates of her vaccinations?
Noirette:
<< Peskov (Kremlin spokesman) was on air shortly thereafter, saying no, that couldn’t be, no way vax > obligatory. 2/3 days later he says he personally (not his remit btw!) is in favor of the Moscow measures, and 2/3 days-
later he says free choice holds as ppl can refuse the vax and quit their jobs.>>
Reminds me of what I heard in Mormon church as a child. They emphasized that we were all free to make our choices, that we had free will. But, oh, watch it! We weren’t free to choose our consequences! And if we did anything contrary to god’s will (as interpreted by out priesthood leaders, laid out in church doctrine,) those consequences were going to make us very sorry.
I was always a rule follower. Made my parents proud (they weren’t the super strict type anyway.) But I’ve learned a lot since then, and am a parent. I understand about authorities “engineering consequences” in an attempt to control behavior. And that is what is going on with this vaccine campaign. Lots of threats of consequences. Some of the threats are foolish for the “authorities” to make — they have no real control over the virus or its variants, and can’t materially concoct death waves when mask mandates are dropped or individuals don’t bother with a vaccine. Other are truly “engineered” consequences — like vax passes in order to access entertainments — that authorities potentially have power over. But the innate problem with engineered consequences is that they are very often countered or negated by lived experience.
(I’m still a rule follower. I just happen to write my own rules.)
“So I wonder, why is the immunity resulting from a Covid infection being downplayed, and the lesser protection resulting from the vaccines being hyped up?“
Because, TPTB want everyone vaccinated at least once.
We can speculate as to the reason.
Perhaps the delta variant is a “blessing in disguise.” For those of the “unvaccinated” who are Covid naive, and also naive to ivermectin prophylaxis, this variant is more contagious, plus the lockdowns are not happening so much. It sounds like iinfection-with-delta could be a very quick way to lead the unvaccinated at least to “herd immunity.” Let delta storm it’s way through…then the unvaccinated survivors will be able to shrug off vestiges of fear, the urges from others to vaccinate. Pretty soon, the only people coming down with and contracting Covid will be the recipients of the “leaky” vaccines. That reality would be difficult to spin. Then we can use ivermectin, et altri, and “save” the vaccinated from delta and her cousins, and assuage many (sadly, not all,) of their adverse vax reactions.
Sounds to good to be true. But here’s to dreaming peaceful dreams. I eventually left a bad marriage and subsequently found a man who feels safe and who feels “right.” Storms do have eyes and deserts do have oases.
I find myself frustrated by the words of the financiers, both politic and private, those who study them, and the cryptocurrency discussions. Bitcoin is “created” by supercomputers that only those who are already generously endowed by the current system will ever be able to possess. How is this dramatically different from any other financial instrument that I am priced out of? I have been raising 3 children “on a shoestring” for 9 years. I have no influence or control over the financiers nor over crypto. That realm is unreal. I can’t “buy in” to any of it. The rapidly rising housing market is jeopardizing my opportunity to declare bankruptcy to offset the debt I incurred to prevent my ex from using lies to remove the children from me. Whatever increases in prices that come my way, I’ll deal with them just as I’ve dealt with every other impossible economic mountain I’ve had to climb in the past decade.
And my left leaning neighbor is upset because construction is finally starting on the low-income housing project in a vacant lot a few blocks away. He is worried about the value of his house. I am thinking: hooray! That vacant lot is FINALLY going to be developed! The elementary aged kids at the bus stop in front of the lot will no longer be tempted to skirt under the fence. If what is being built is what has been planned for more than a decade (maybe 2?) it will be condos that will be priced so that low-income folks can BUY them. Buyers tend to be more community minded than renters — and this neighborhood has been about half renters since the aftermath of the 2008 crash. (Some renters are great — like the Hispanic neighbors to the south, were there nearly 7 years, their daughter was besties with mine for years. Others are, well, amusing…late night parties with loud recorded mariachi music behind us, or like the druggies across the street who would get angry and yell at each other in the front yard. Kind of entertaining, in a way….didn’t mind so much when they left.)
I helped with a musical performance at retirement community yesterday. Had a nice conversation with a friend. I am cautious telling people too much about Covid and vaccination…I have learned so much through TAE that my knowledge can overwhelm short conversations…not to mention the potential for cognitive dissonance in the other conversant. So I just touch on the edges. And told my friend — if you get Covid despite your vaccination, or this happens to those close to you — let me know, I know what can help. Maybe that is all I’ll emphasize in short conversations. I also know of one local doctor willing to prescribe HCQ back in October 2020….
Ironic, all the retirement community folks with their proud vaccination ribbons, with their non-sterilizing, leaky Covid immunity…insisting on masking me, who has sterilizing immunity. I passed a damn PCR test 11 days post symptom onset. I passed Covid onto no one. I was a viral dead end. My immune system rocks! (Of course, my father, in his early seventies, weathered Covid with no symptoms and has shown antibodies to Covid twice now…since he quarantined with my symptomatic mother, he also did not pass Covid on…he must be a rock god.)
I get food from from a food bank once a month…in Arizona.
Fortunately, most of the food received was not purchased by the food bank. Most of the food handed out is “reclaimed food” donated by grocery stores and wholesale or restaurant sources. (The non-reclaimed food is mostly all in the food box. Food box contains non-perishables, for example: spaghetti, tomato sauce, dried fruit, canned fruit, canned vegetables, dry beans, rice, half gallon of fruit juice, canned meat.)
Reclaimed food is wonderful. Sometimes, it is close to the expiration, and must be eaten or preserved immediately. Or given away. Some may already be too far gone for human enjoyment — but not so far gone that a hen doesn’t enjoy it. Often, the food isn’t close to expiration, and I wonder if it is from accidental restaurant over-orders, etc. If food-insecure families are willing to wait a few days for a Thanksgiving feast, stopping by the food bank shortly after Thanksgiving will yield bags of stuffing mix, premade traditional favorites (stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, turkey breast) that just need to be heated, bags of potatoes, bunches of celery, tons of onions, etc.I don’t know if other states have food bank systems that work this well, “rescuing” food that would otherwise head to a landfill. And I don’t know how much the food that is a part of the federal and other programs that they participate in is funded by government sources, (government funds may be a fixed amount,) and how much rising prices affect them. (I also know that the food bank “meat box” prices for a few pounds of meat can be beat by the price of nearly any grocery store’s current week’s specials in the meat department.) Certainly the food banks would be affected by rising energy prices as they try to keep donated food preserved long enough to get it into people’s hands.
Regarding beforeitsnews article…
Seems heavy on fear tactics, light on facts.
Um…PCR testing doesn’t require the long swab up the nose. And not all PCR testing sites use that method. I never subjected my teens to that method…I’m not sure I could induce them to endure it, certainly not more than once.
The long lived macrophage reprogramming is very thick with medical jargon and concepts that are not easy to follow. If anyone here is adept at this jargon a simple lay-person explanation would be appreciated.
From what I gather..
The Covid spike protein can act as a very powerful allergen.
The vaccines that cause the body to produce the spike protein are super-sensitizing individuals to the s protein.What I’m not certain about..
Covid infection also causes super-sensitization to S protein?
Is there a difference between the macrophages that develop whether they are from infection or vaccine?
“T he host will have a devastating NLRP3 inflammasome activation” – are we talking about a vaccinated host subsequently getting Covid infection? A Covid survivor getting reinfected with variant? Covid naive getting infected with variant?
Are the pictures of the red and blue people just illustrating that if you have neither been infected with Covid nor had the vaccine and your cells are cultured that they will show that you are not primed to allergically to the Covid spike protein, and that if you have been Covid infected that you have also been primed to allergically react to Covid spike protein? If so, wouldn’t that mean that Covid survivors injected with the vaccine would be having allergic reactions constantly? Or does this inflammosome reaction only occur with future Covid infection?I have so many questions that I don’t know where to begin.
Superhero vaccine…
I’m not going to suppose that this sort of research *shouldn’t* be pursued (I enjoy the Star Trek universe, after all.). However, from watching this Covid vaccine rollout it is very clear that Big Pharma’s zeal to put profit making above all else is counter productive to long-term safety testing of new technologies and to a sane pace of development.@ John Day — I love the look of having the garden photo as the back drop for your website. I’m going to borrow that idea for one of my websites.
It RAINED in Phoenix yesterday. Steady rain on and off for hours, not heavy, nor just a few drops. It was like a large sigh of relief, a break from temps over 110 degrees. I had a service call for a client about a half mile away, and watched the car’s thermometer of the outside temperature start at 78 and lower over the course of 30 minutes to 71 degrees. I turned off the air conditioning and rolled down the window, windshield wipers in use, steady raindrops could not diminish the delight of such balmy temperatures. It looks like we’ll be below 110 degrees for the next 10 days. Hopefully many of my garden plants will recover a bit. I’ve been watching leaves curl and dry on my tomato vine, as green, yellow, and orange-y tomatoes stay at their color, with no change, despite shade cloth on two sides and mesquite branches overhead for filtered sun much of the day.
I’ve spoken about Covid vaccination with each of my 3 teens. I told them — I’m fine with vaccines, I got you all of the typical childhood vaccinations. (13yo daughter: “I *know* mom, the vaccination record is in my studentvue account. I’ve seen it, even though I don’t remember getting most of them.”). But I’m not okay with this vaccine. It hasn’t been adequately tested. There are a lot of terrible adverse reactions to it. And, besides, you are young and healthy, if you got Covid it wouldn’t be a big deal. You even quarantined with me when I had Covid and didn’t get sick — you may already be immune.
My kids trust me. Ice cream and social expectations won’t get them to accept vaccination. And if their father tries it behind my back, the kids will object and let me know.
Madamski: Meanwhile, now that the DNC/liberal zeitgeist have trashed themselves, we can look forward to a resumption of GOP/conservative stupidity also. Someone has to fill the void.
I’ve been thinking the same.
Partner and I flirted with the new AZ flavor of The People’s Party a few months back. Most of them were Bernie Buds who simply wanted to adopt Bernie’s platform rather than go to the trouble of building a platform from the ground up. Or they wanted to see what the national party was saying, and adopt the national platform. With some noted exceptions, it was a small leaderless mob, trying to find a leader, a strong man to align with. Most of them were frightened by the idea of going to the roots (the people)…it was stated as “too difficult” and “too long a process.” I think they were deceiving themselves. They really didn’t want to risk their pet ideas not being in the majority once the majority opinions were discovered. The second objective so many of them were promoting was of making a flashy difference on the national level — they wanted to make demands for Biden’s first 100 days in office. Partner and I shook our heads. Don’t care if some do that — I’m not going to dissuade them, *might* accomplish some good. But, seriously, nobody making decisions in the Biden admin cares one whit about the demands of the upstart AZ People’s Party. You want to make a difference?? DO something different. Create a political party that responds to the will and opinions of its members and that creates pressure to effect change on the local and state level — where you have a better chance of electing someone to office. The major political parties follow the bidding of their big donors, not the will of their members. If you want to be significant, BE different — do the hard work to find out what your members want, and champion that.Regarding…

Thermostats in Texas Homes Are Being Accessed Remotely and Turned Up Due to an Energy Shortage”
APS has been doing this for a few years, however, it is an opt-in program, and those who opt-in get small credits on their bill for opting in. I have very little money and opted in the past 3 summers. It is a pilot program. Is it terrible if it is not coerced and is not stealth? There are advance email notices when it occurs. The thermostat is at first set a few degrees lower for a few hours to lower the home temperature, then it is set a few degrees higher during the peak time period. If for some reason you don’t like the temperature change, the user can at any time override it by adjusting their thermostat. I don’t think it is a bad thing, in and of itself, however, like so many centralized things, it could be used to wrest control from the user. (Of course, I can just remove the thermostat from my wireless network. Or, if that were disabled, I could just change the passcode on my wireless network, etc. However, increasingly, people’s wireless networks are being managed from the outside, rather than on the inside, so this could eventually be problematic for those not savvy enough to set up and control their own network.)
Hrm…
I don’t see why we couldn’t maintain a more low-key, peer-to-peer internet despite lower energy.Desktop and laptop computers for most users have not needed to increase in computing power much at all in the last decade. It only takes so many resources to check email, browse the web, view and print PDFs and write a letter. Efficiency is up. Despite “planned obsolescence” my observation over the last 15 years doing break/fix work in IT is that our personal computing devices are actually more stable and lasting longer than they used to do. Most replacements happen because of envy for a new item, fear that something is breaking because it is old (when there is no indication of that happening,) new programs that are not backwards compatible (common with Android/iOS,) or frustration with slowness caused by junk programs that could be removed — the user believing that the slowness is caused by age, not junk software.
IMHO, the IoT is (mostly) a ridiculous waste of time and resources. I don’t want my appliances spying on me, and in most cases I prefer to simply get up and flip a light switch rather than using my phone or voice activated house computer to do it for me. (Perhaps I would change my tune if I didn’t know that house computer was also serving as a permanent “bug” spying on me 24/7.). Is WiFi radio frequency less detrimental than having wires around me creating low level magnetic fields? I have no idea. But all these devices with built in WiFi certainly require more power than those not utilizing WiFi. (My brother gave my mom WiFi controlled light bulbs for Mother’s Day. They require WPA3 encryption. I’m going to have to reset up their wireless network from scratch, just so she can use the gift my brother gave her.,,of something she had no interest in getting for herself. Ridiculous.)
I have been wondering about this magnetic thing with vaccinated folks. Is it the manifestation of an attempt by the vaccine manufacturers to keep the vaccine near the injection site? Is there any correlation between incidence/severity of vaccine reactions and whether or not a vaccinee has a magnetic spot near the injection site? Is this magnetofaction stuff a part of the vaccine cocktail that is proprietary company knowledge, and therefore not shared publicly? Is there any health related significance to having a magnetic spot in one’s body?
Maybe if I buy a couple of neodymium magnets and give them to my kids they’ll try this experiment out on their vaccinated step-siblings at their dad’s house. I can’t quite bring myself to ask to try it out on vaccinated clients or friends at the nearby retirement community…they already find my vaccine refusal a little odd.
Regarding Van der Bossche, I suppose if the second vaccine really isn’t necessary, that vaccinees develop mature Abs faster than he is hypothesizing. (Which doesn’t disprove what he is saying, it merely affects the timeline.). Also, he appears flummoxed as to why so many public health experts are pushing mass vaccination and flirting with boosters against variants…I have a simple explanation. Public officials’ means to wealth is by following the bidding of the industries they regulate. The corporate charters of these industries declare that their “prime directive’ is to increase shareholder profit. From the perspective of Big Pharma, the goal is not to stop or wipe out the pandemic, the goal is to milk the pandemic for as much profit as they can cram into their coffers before it fizzles out. Delaying the end of the pandemic, or vaccines that ultimately prolong the pandemic, (or suppressing treatments that do not generate shareholder profit,) serves to increase the profits of Big Pharma.
(Occam’s razor is a beautiful thing.)

Heart inflammation condition looked like heart attack in kids, pediatrician says
Is a psyop. It is a persuasive piece masquerading as an informative news article. It is designed to capture the eyes of parents who have heard of the myocarditis risk and allay their fears. It emphasizes that although it seems like a heart attack, it isn’t, it’s just a little bit of heart inflammation, is treatable, and your child will be just fine.
“The big question is whether the risk of myocarditis can be linked to vaccines and if so, whether the risk to children and youths is greater than the risk of catching the virus.”
NO! That IS NOT the “big question.” The “big question” is, in light of how harmless Covid is to children (MISC-C notwithstanding,) whether or not the vaccines are more dangerous to children than the disease they are supposed to prevent. (Is myocarditis more or less dangerous to children than MISC-C? They are both usually treatable in a modern hospital. What is the incidence of each? Parents need this information in order to do a risk/benefit analysis and make a wise decision.)
It was sh*tty articles like these that pushed me to keep sifting through the web last year until I found the goldmine that is TAE. When I read articles like that, all these questions arise in my mind, and I feel uneasy. And then I wonder…do most folks not see this? Do they simply lack that insatiable urge to know and understand? Are they too busy to care?
Every time I read that 40 ct PCR yields 50-75% false positive, I shake my head. With rates that high, they should be viewable anecdotally.
I had 4 PCR tests: 1 with “maybe symptoms—probably allergies,” 1 with no symptoms but known Covid exposure, 1 with Covid symptoms, 1 with no Covid symptoms, about a week after resolution of Covid. *Only* the test when I had full Covid symptoms came back positive for Covid.
My domestic partner had 3 PCR tests: 1 with no symptoms but known Covid exposure, 1 with Covid symptoms, 1 with no Covid symptoms, about a week after resolution of Covid. *Only* the test with full Covid symptoms came back positive for Covid.
My mother had 2 PCR tests: 1 with no symptoms prior to knee surgery, 1 with Covid symptoms. The test when she had Covid symptoms came back positive.
My father had 1 PCR tests: 1 with no symptom but at the same time as my mother’s test — he had the same exposure she had. The test was negative. Later, he has tested positive for antibodies to Covid. (As has my mother as well.)
Two of my children were tested via PCR 4 times, the third child was tested 5 times over the course of about a month, after they had been exposed to my mother, and during this time they quarantined with myself and my partner, who had positive tests with classic symptoms. All of my children’s tests came back negative.
This is a small sample size (20 PCR tests on people without Covid symptoms), granted, but it is large enough that a “50-75%” false positive rate should reveal itself with at least ONE false positive, or questioned positive.
@ Dr. D
<< Have you tried competition, with a free market, unrigged prices, and bankruptcy? A: Neither has anybody else.>>I both enjoy and cringe at your diatribes. You have an acerbic tone, a mixture of bitterness and sarcasm. Often, your analyses are spot on.
However…
I find the solution that you pose: “Laissez-faire capitalism! No government interference in the economy! Free markets!”
…to be unimaginative compared to the brilliance of your analysis.“really existing capitalism” : “Laissez-faire, free-market capitalism” :: “really existing communism” : “Marxist ideals.”
We’ve had great thinkers preaching laissez-fair, no government interference, free market capitalism for over 300 years. We’ve never reached it. When we’ve gotten close, it has driven itself to monopolies and poverty and child labor – this was why the “labor movement” was birthed. The drive of capitalism towards monopoly and most resources being controlled by a small segment of the population was studied in great deal by Thomas Picketty.
You can accurately make a similar analysis of Marxism – Lenin’s Marxism led to Stalin’s “communism” which was a brutal, totalitarian regime. The USSR ultimately became a failed communist state. Mao’s “communism” has led to the repressive Chinese state – which, although its economic gains in the past 40 years has been impressive – the freedom of its people is problematic. And China still has super-wealthy along with great poverty.
If I were to tell you that the “solution” is simply to be purist about Marx’s ideals, you would scoff at me and excoriate me.
Why do you expect anyone to do any differently when you claim that “free markets” are going to cure us of our current woeful version of “really existing capitalism?”
Look, neither really-existing capitalism nor really-existing socialism/communism are going to bring us into an improved economic system. If we are going to improve upon what we have, we are going to have to think outside the box and find a new paradigm.
What are the common threads between both “really-existing” capitalism and communism? What are the successes of each type of system? (Because both systems *do* have successes as well as failures.)
I don’t propose that I know all of the common threads. However…
• Both systems devolve into corruption caused by too much political/economic power being wielded by a small group of people who then warp the system to perpetuate their own wealth and power.
• Therefore, a better system would need to, by default, prevent the aggregation of wealth/power into few hands.
• Or, another way of stating it, power/wealth needs to tend away from aggregation.
• Or, another way of viewing — local power needs to exceed power from far away: i.e. local rule is stronger than federal rule. Confederacy rather than federalism. If local power is the strongest, but it can only exert itself locally, then it is more difficult for small numbers of people to exert influence over larger numbers.
• One proposal I’m aware of to prevent the few from ruling the many is “worker cooperatives” – each member gets one vote in decisions. This is very democratic, and while it won’t prevent every possibly excess of business, it will create an environment that is less likely to produce many of the problems that we see now. It is less likely that a democratic process will force some of its members to lose their jobs, or to relocate their jobs to a foreign country, or to pollute the land above the aquafer used for the water that runs through their own homes.Any other common threads?
@ Dark Matter
I haven’t the time at the moment to go through prior TAE posts or to go through my (now voluminous) bookmarks regarding Covid & vaccines at the moment, however, this may help you find what you are looking for…Spike protein throughout body:
* study that collected blood samples at intervals post vaccination and found spike protein the the blood samples up to 30 days post vaccination. If it is in the blood, it is well-dispersed in the body.
* the report on the (Pfizer, I think) study about their lipid nanoparticles “biodistribution.” The report came by means of Japanese authorities. The study was of just the nanoparticles, without the mRNA inside of them. (As far as I remember, there was no animal or human study done on mRNA vaccine biodistribution prior to EUA.). The lipid nanoparticles did not stay at the injection site, but rather were found to have collected in various organs throughout the body: ovaries, bone marrow, testes, spleen, etc. A basic understanding of the mRNA vaccine suggests that wherever the mRNA encased in lipid nanoparticles ends up is where it is going to invade a cell and hijack it to become a spike protein factory.Regarding danger of the spike protein…there is literature/studies about the Covid pathogen that have found that the severe form of Covid disease appears to be a circulatory disease, with the spike protein being a driver of the circulatory issues, leading to clots (thrombosis), possibly contributing to Covid brain fog, etc. However, there seemed to be some hedging by experts who wanted to distance the spike protein of the Covid virus from the spike protein encoded by the mRNA/DNA (adenovector) vaccines. Personally, I found that the hedging “smelled like a rat,” and distrusted it. The question ends up being: is the spike protein that is encoded by the vaccine mRNA/DNA disabled? (If it is not disabled, than it can cause the same harm as the Covid spike protein.)
My hunch is this:
The spike protein encoded by the mRNA/DNA vaccines is not “disabled.”
Why?
Because if it had been disabled, this would have been explained to the public when the vaccines were rolled out. The narrative surrounding vaccine roll out was careful constructed, with “safety” being the all important by-word. We received all sorts of explanations of how mRNA vaccine technology works. We became super familiarized with the concept of the spike protein and how its production was going to spur the immune system to create antibodies. If TPTB had anticipated that the public would be concerned about the pathogenicity of the spike protein, then they would have assured us in advance that it had been disabled. This was not done. Therefore, it was not disabled. Attempts to distance the Covid spike protein from the vaccine inspired spike protein is, at this stage in the game, sleight of hand and nothing more. It is TPTB controlling information in order to control the thoughts and behavior of the public. It’s a psyop.
