I’m not normally an overly-religious person, but I’m running out of people to trust. I think it might be better if I went back and starting trusting in the Thing a bit more.
Two years ago I (mostly) believed in our institutions, our governments, our scientists, our health professionals. OK - they were far from perfect, I know - but I always thought they were, broadly speaking, trying to do the “right thing”. However imperfectly they were doing it and with whatever amount of corruption lying beneath the shiny veneer - I never thought they would do anything horribly, massively evil (although there have been one or two glaring exceptions over the years, obvious to even the most naïve - like me).
Where do I turn to today?
We tried trusting in the “science”. Lockdowns, masks, sanitizers, test, track and trace the fuck out of everything. Don’t play Scrabble. Don’t hug Granny. Sex in the missionary position? Not very safe. And all the other wonderful, wonderful things that worked sooooooo very well. They worked sooooooo well we keep having to do them -and not much has changed. Even with the holy potions of Pfizery goodness, we still need to keep on doing all this stuff that “worked” for us.
If that’s “science” - you can stick it where the sun don’t shine - and definitely NOT in my arm.
What about the politicians. Those we elect to serve us?
We only need to vaccinate the vulnerable, they said. Once the vulnerable have been vaccinated we can get rid of all the restrictions, they said. Vaccination is only for adults, they said.
The amount of lying, worthless crap that has squirted, like last night’s vindaloo, out of their noisome features over this last 20 months, could drown a small country in effluent.
Not content with merely lying, coercing, manipulating, mandating and making outrageous profits for themselves, family and friends through the awarding of lucrative contracts, they even tried to put the blame for this sordid mess on us. The pandemic still going? I’m sorry, but you didn’t bend over enough whilst we shafted you.
You might have detected a certain level of irritation in my writing by now. Too right. I’m beyond angry, beyond disgusted, at what has been done to us by our public servants.
Perhaps we should be placing our trust in Big Pharma? They’ve always been beyond reproach - free from sin - tirelessly working to maximise health, or profits, . . . or something. These corporate giants don’t even trust in their own products. They have demanded, and received, zero liability for them.
Trust us, these vaccines are so pure, so efficacious. We trust in them sooooooo much we’ve negotiated zero liability for ourselves. Thousands dead from the vaccines? Whoopsie - not our problem.
But, but, but, . . . won’t you think of the children?
They have.
Every time a child is vaccinated a bell rings. It’s the sound of that cash register filling up.
We know that children are barely at risk from serious covid19. Yet we seem to be desperate to get the vaccines injected into their precious bodies. Vaccines which we know will expose them to more risk than the disease itself. Why? I have no answers to that question. I can’t explain it. It makes no medical or ethical sense whatsoever. I can’t think of it as anything but abhorrent and despicably evil.
I mean, I get why the likes of Pfizer are pushing this - every arm is another few dollars for them. They’ve only ever acted in their own best interests - not ours. Occasionally those two things overlap a bit. But I don’t get why anyone else is pushing these - and for kids especially. The only rational explanations I can come up with make me sound like some crazy person - I simply can’t explain in any scientific or medical terms this unholy and unconscionable drive for vaccinating everything that has a pulse. All for a disease that has an overall survival rate of well over 99.7% if you’re reasonably healthy - and that survival rate is over 99.999% for kids.
And as for vaccine mandates? Well, if you think these are anything to do with health at all I have next week’s winning lottery numbers for you - for a very reasonable fee.
One of the saddest things of this whole covid pantomime for me, personally, has been the almost complete erosion of my trust in governments, media and the medical profession. I always thought vaccines (you know, the good ones that actually seem to work and don’t kill and maim thousands of people) were a jolly good thing - now, I’m even beginning to question that received wisdom.
Maybe I’ll be more prone to coming down with some ailment, but I kind of feel I need to go back to simpler times when I could put my trust in you know the, you know, . . . the Thing.
The more I've read about vaccines in general during the past 12 months, the more I realise I've never given informed consent. If I had my life over the only vaccines I would have are the ones for smallpox and cholera that I had to travel through the middle and far east as a child en route to Australia. I feel fairly certain I would have rejected the ones given to my son suh as MMR. I only hope that what has happened with current created medical crisis a lot more people will wake up to the dangers of all drugs and vaccines, though that is probably a forlorn hope judging by the numbers jabbed and numbers playing Russian roulette with their children.
It's simple. It is not a conspiracy. It is FEAR, above all, and the incompetency-networks which have established itself in the western world during the last decades. The avalanche of stupidity just needed a trigger -rona- to get rolling (Our celebrated Herr Drosten from the world famous Charite hospital deserves the credits for setting it off.)
