“Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the leaders… and millions have been killed because of this obedience… Our problem is that people all over the world are obedient in the face of poverty, and starvation, and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is the people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves… and the grand thieves are running the country. That’s our problem.” Howard Zinn
Hey there all of you wonderfully wild, freedom loving secular apostates! Thanks for all of the free subscriptions and likes!
Today we’re going to see just how wild and wonderful you are… we’re going to push the envelope by taking a close look at the divisions that are now manifesting between the two developing plandemic camps. But, let’s first consider how we view the world.
our truth markers
We all set markers for determining what is true and what is not. When we hear something new that sounds like it might be legit, we compare it against our long held marker of truth on that topic. If we find that some new information is severely contradicting a marker, we may decide that it’s unworthy. Some may decide that it’s just too much trouble to pursue the truth and will remain with their current, albeit incorrect, marker. Others may see some kernel of truth in the new information, but may experience some cognitive dissonance because it seems believable but is at odds with a long held marker. This may lead some to investigate further and continue to challenge a long held marker. If the new information begins to take the form of truth in ones mind, the old marker slowly dissolves as the new marker takes root and grows. This seems to occur most easily in people who are open to new things. There will be some who may want to get to the absolute bottom of an issue and will pursue the truth till the cows come home. (I may be guilty of that.) At the end of the process, those in this latter group may find themselves in a place so very far removed from where they started that they have to pinch themselves to believe the new markers they’ve now adopted. (Voice of experience.) But this later group of people will be the most rewarded for their efforts because they will now have a very shiny, solid new marker that they may end up staking their lives on. Those of you who feel this way about freedom know what I’m talking about. Many of you readers have gone through this process over the past 2 years, which is why you read my pieces. And I love you all so much for having done so.
Why am I talking about this? I think its safe to say that many, if not all of us have experienced a number of episodes of cognitive dissonance over the past two years as some of our markers have been challenged by all of the information coming out about vaccines, the lockdown, masks, the mandates and so on. The past two years have definitely been a wringer.
However, among all of the topics that have caused many to reset markers, one remains a-bridge-too-far for many people because it’s been so thoroughly pounded into them for their entire life as… ‘the truth’. That topic would be germ theory, the “theory” that germs exist and are causative of disease. Some people that have long held that view are now suffering from cognitive dissonance as that view has become increasingly challenged due to the current awakening. As I’ve explained in a previous post, I was severely injured by a flu shot in 1971 and I’ve not had another vaxx since then. So I had absolutely no cognitive dissonance when I first saw the documentary Vaxxed! about 6 years ago. In fact, my position on all jabs now goes way beyond that of Del Bigtree, the producer of Vaxxed! For me, taking the red pill on the existence of viruses and their causative nature was as right as rain. Not so for others. For some very powerful reasons, the satanic propaganda campaign for “vaccines” has been going on for over 100 years. And because they’re so profitable, the forces behind them have money to burn, which means the dark propaganda has been very effective. Lest we fail to note the critical connection… if there are no viruses, then the need to make highly profitable “vaccines” becomes a moot point. For the vaxx industry to exist, viruses must exist and they must be causative of disease.
So, let’s take a look at why there are two camps and why they see this topic so differently.
the conservative camp
In the conservative plandemic camp we have those who believe that viruses are real, can cause some diseases and that vaccines can be helpful with some of them. Where the conservative camp parts ways with the status quo medical program is by believing that the lockdown, the mandates and all of the social programming is unnecessary and that the mRNA jabs (and possibly all other covid jabs) are a failure.
The conservative camp is quit large and vocal and it’s loudest voices are often people with degrees that bring them a significant income from some aspect of industry or society that depends on maintaining some semblance of an official narrative about viruses. Some of the big names in this camp are; Dr. Robert Malone (self professed inventor of mRNA vaccine technology), Joe Rogan, famous podcaster on Spotify, Alex Berensen, well known writer and blogger on Substack, Robert F. Kennedy Jr, head of Children’s Health Defense and litigator of vaccine injury cases, Dr. Joseph Mercola, owner of mercola.com, Dr. Peter McCullough, vocal critic of the plandemic, Steve Kirsch, Substack writer and a vaxxed engineer who now regrets having taken the jab, Micheal Yeadon, former chief scientific officer and vice president at Pfizer. This is but a few of the people in this camp.
Why do these folks refuse to follow the lead of the next camp? I don’t really know. The reasons likely vary from one person to the next. For some it may be a refusal to deny 8 years of medical training and the high salary that comes with that. For others it might be a business model they’ve invested in that brings them a significant income from upholding the idea that viruses exist and are causative. For some, taking this position offers a modicum of plausible deniability. It allows them say they’re not as radical as those in the next camp. For others I think it boils down to a psychological position that my friend Carly pointed out to me last week. “Believing that viruses are causative makes it easier for someone to adopt a victim mindset.” “I can’t deny this medical degree” or “I can’t deny this profitable business”, or “I can’t deny this esteemed position”, or “I can’t deny this large income” are all potential excuses for those with a victim mindset. So the real science is conveniently ignored in favor of science that legitimizes victimized expediency. Smart woman, that Carly.
the freedom camp
Those in the freedom camp depend more on independent science and less on bought-and-paid for university/big pharma science. They tend to think in less superficial terms and look more deeply into matters of concern, especially as they pertain to matters of causation. I’m loath to call them radicals because, 100 years ago, prior to the advent of “vaccines”, they were once all considered very conservative - which goes to show how effective the Rockefeller campaign to alter the mindset of the human population about pharmaceutical based medicine has been.
This camp has a lot of problems with the antiquated “germ theory”. As I hope to make clear, the Orwellian idea that this camp is more radical seems to be mostly based on a lack of understanding among those fully ensconced in the pro-jab camp, and even many in the conservative plandemic camp, of the deeper, unbiased science behind the causative nature of disease. By now all of you regular readers will know that I put myself in this camp.
As more people learn about the flaws in the satanically driven science behind the pharmaceutical medical model that some in the conservative camp rely on, and as more of those people then go on to delve into the more fundamental, independent science the freedom camp relies on, the freedom camp gains new adherents daily. In other words, people are changing their long held markers about the causative nature of viruses and the need for jabs, so the freedom camp is growing rapidly. If you’re not already a member of this camp, I hope to present some information here that will bring you into the freedom fold.
Who is in the freedom camp? I think it’s safe to say that before his untimely death in August of 2019, Dr. Kary Mullis was in this camp. How did he come to be there? Science. Lest we forget, he won the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1993 for inventing the PCR test. I think I’ve watched every video of him being interviewed (some multiple times) and as I’ve pointed out in several earlier posts, he clearly states numerous times that we all have every virus within us and that Fauci and his ilk are wrong about interpreting their causative nature. This is not denial of the existence of viruses, but it is denial of them being causative.
Nobel Prize candidate Dr. Stefano Scoglio (Italy) has questioned the existence of the covid virus, but not much else, relying on the phony PCR test.
Dr. Derek Knauss goes a bit further by pointing out the faulty nature of the PCR test: “I have a PhD in virology and immunology. I’m a clinical lab scientist and have tested 1,500 “supposed” positive COVID-19 samples collected here in Southern California. When my lab team and I subjected the 1,500 supposedly positive Covid-19 samples to Koch’s postulates and put them under an SEM (electron microscope), we found NO Covid in all 1,500 samples. We found that all 1,500 samples were primarily Influenza A, and some Influenza B, but no cases of Covid. We did not use the [unreliable] PCR test.”
Perhaps the three most prominent proponents of the freedom camp are Dr. Tom Cowan, Dr. Andrew Kaufman and Stefan Lanka PhD. Other notables are; Marc McDonald MD, Peggy Hall, Samantha Bailey MD, Sally Fallon, Alphonse Faggiolo, Barre Lando MD, Kelly Brogan MD, Veda Austin, Tony Roman, Sayer Ji - again, to name but a few. Unlike many in the conservative camp, no one in the freedom camp is protecting a position that makes them money. On the contrary, one of the ways we know they’re on the right path is because they’ve given up so much to speak truth to power.
the arguments
Some of the more common comments I get when I talk about the lack of proof of the causative nature of viruses are the arguments in favor of viruses being contagious. An argument often goes like this: If a group of people all get sick at the same time, doesn’t that prove contagion by virus? As I’ve pointed out in several early posts, the problem with this line of thinking is that this is what is known as epidemiological observation, which does not prove causation. Yes, epidemiological observation can be used to sound an alarm about a potential problem, but scientific studies must then be conducted to prove causation of the observation. If ALL epidemiological observations were true then we would still be thinking that beriberi, pellagra and scurvy are all caused by viruses because many people all got sick with those diseases in the same place at the same time. And yes, for a long time those diseases were believed to be caused by contagious viruses. Yet, we now know that scurvy is caused by a lack of vitamin C, pellagra is caused by a shortage of niacin and beriberi is caused by low thiamine levels. Who is to say that there are not other unknown nutritionally based causative factors at work with many other diseases?
The death toll from Chernobyl remains largely unknown - partly because people are still dying from this event. Here we have a group of people who were all in the same place at the same time and are dying from a multitude of different diseases. Is this viral contagion? Of course not. We know that all of the various diseases stem from radiation poisoning. So how can we be so sure that many other diseases are not being caused by the radiation poisoning now occurring from cell phones, 5G towers, EMF’s in the home (wifi, microwave ovens, refrigerators, digital meters etc) at the office, on a ship (many now have onboard 5G), at a concert (with tens of thousands of cell phones in use in close proximity)?
Then we have toxins. There are at least 80,000 known chemicals being used in our world today. Many are listed as known carcinogens and many others are listed as probable carcinogens. Most remain untested. There are at least 70 carcinogens in tobacco alone. We know these chemicals cause disease because numerous court cases and lab studies bear this out. I once knew a woman who worked in a lab that tested chemicals for carcinogenic properties. She told me they never tested a chemical that did not show some level of carcinogenicity. So how do we know that many of the diseases we now face are not caused by the plethora of toxins in our house, our car, our office, our water, our food, our bedding and the very air we breath?
In every scenario I’ve just presented we should ask the question: Why don’t we know more about these issues… why don’t we know how causative they are? Short answer… because no one has thoroughly studied it. Why not? Because doing so would derail the highly profitable germ theory locomotive. Right now, all of the major funding goes to programs that further prop up that very profitable agenda. This is where the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation has placed all of their chips, this is where the university systems have placed all of their chips, this where countless non-profits have placed all of their chips, this is where the WHO has placed all of its chips, this is where the CDC has placed all of its chips, this is where many investors on Wall Street have placed their chips, and most importantly, this is where big pharma has placed all of its chips. What does all of this mean? It means the medical game is most definitely rigged in favor of germ theory. As I keep pointing out, if it’s all about profit and not about saving lives, then its satanic (anti-life).
Could it be that in every case viruses (exosomes?) are the result and not the cause of disease? Our bodies way of ridding itself of an intrusive insult? A way to signal our bodies to mount a defensive immune response, the same way trees in a forest signal each other that a beetle infestation has begun?
the crux of the matter
All of this, everything I’ve said up to this point, has come to a head with a recent article published on mercola.com. As some of you know, I’m a long time subscriber and commenter on Dr. Mercola’s newsletter. I’ve also been using his products for many years. In a recent post Dr. Mercola tried to put to rest the idea that I and a few others have kept alive in his forum that the existence of the covid virus and its causative nature has never been proven. In this recent piece Dr. Mercola presented a lot of ‘official science’ funded by university studies and big pharma, to prove his point. I have to say I was a bit shocked and disappointed by the crass nature of the piece.
For those who may not know, Dr. Mercola was named as one of the “disinformation dozen” by The Center for Countering Digital Hate (in part funded by big pharma and other shady groups) for supposedly promoting false information about vaccines and alternative solutions for treating covid. (Yes, he committed the cardinal sin of recommending people get plenty of sunshine, take vitamin C and zinc and other nutrients to stave off covid.) Since those false accusations occurred he’s been hounded by the liberal media and was forced to take down his newsletter posts after 48 hours. So… this is someone who has suffered greatly at the hands of the mainstream media and its corporate owners - those who seek to censor those who are not toeing the official narrative line.
This is why I was so surprised to read in the article that, not only did Dr. Mercola come out in full support of the idea the covid virus has been isolated and that it causes covid, he also dissuaded those who disagreed from pursuing the topic any further. In other words, he was trying to censor those of us who are not in agreement with him - this after experiencing terrible censorship himself!
Of course, I had to make a comment. I said I was disappointed that Dr. Mercola deemed it necessary to dissuade those of us who disagreed from discussing the matter. I also commented on some of the hearsay arguments used in the article to prove the existence of the covid virus. Unbelievably, my comment was removed. Yup, Dr. Mercola, probably the most censored guy in the US, censored me for employing my first amendment right to free speech!
I can’t link to the article because 48 hours has passed so, it’s been taken down.
Here’s what I think may be going on. The reason why Dr. Mercola decided to take down all of his posts after 48 hours was never explained. Personally, I think he was facing some form of coercion from a source he could not reveal without jeopardizing his safety and/or the safety of loved ones. Stranger things have happened. Keep in mind his site is the most viewed health site in the world - he has a tremendous amount of influence. Perhaps whatever threat caused him to take down his articles after 48 hours is now threatening to do more harm if he doesn’t say something to prop up the official narrative about the existence of the covid virus. Indeed, what better way to stop those who are on the verge of changing their truth markers about the existence of the covid virus than to have someone as influential in the health and freedom movement as Dr. Mercola claim that the covid virus exists. To keep his position from being torn apart, he then took down my comment, and… I’ve since learned, the comments of others who also took my position.
Keep in mind, once the population moves away from the antiquated idea of germ theory, the need for highly profitable jabs disappears. Translated, from the perspective of big pharma, there is a lot at stake.
This article by Dr. Mercola is now being dissected by several people in the freedom camp. Perhaps the most thorough treatment has been done by Dr. Tom Cowan and Dr. Andrew Kaufman. One of the arguments used by Dr. Mercola to justify the existence of the covid virus was a video interview of Jeremy Hammond. Here is Dr. Kaufman’s response to that video. If you want to understand just how poorly conceived the argument for the existence of the covid virus is, you’ll want to watch this video.
Dr. Tom Cowan and Dr. Andrew Kaufman join forces here to further dissect Dr. Mercolas article.
As alluded earlier, these two guys are the two most informed people I know of regarding the lack of evidence for the existence of the covid virus. Given that, I’m not going to try and top them.
just say no
When we say no to the elites who have been running the show, that we no longer believe their lies, that we refuse to be slaves, we are actually saying yes to a new life, to freedom. We are saying yes, ‘we are critical thinkers and we know what’s really going on’. We are saying yes to the freedom to chose the type of medicine we use. We are saying yes to the freedom to chose how to govern ourselves without interference from big government, big banks, big corporations, big tech and big medicine. Yes to the freedom to worship as we chose, to have a small business without the threat of it being closed arbitrarily, to breath freely, to go where we want. Yes to the freedom to not be exposed to EMF’s, toxins and bad food. Yes to the freedom to get a real education, not one dictated by a small handful of elites who control the universities. Perhaps most of all, we are saying yes to the need to enjoy the full glory of nature as God intended, not as a small handful of elites dictate.
Be free.
I could not agree with you more on this issue as I am also in the Freedom Camp. I was in doubt about viruses myself and about twelve years ago I bought a book by Janine Roberts called Fear of the Invisible. It is still in print. There is an excellent synopsis here: https://www.davidpratt.info/roberts.htm
Roberts started off believing in viruses but her research changed her mind. They do not exist. They are only exosomes, or cell messengers. She did a thorough deep dive, and I became a convert. Since the publication, more has come out and that includes Suzanne Humphries and Roman Bystrianyk's book Dissolving Illusions. I tried to find the Youtube video of her visit to Leicester where the world's first anti-vax protests took place but they were taken down.
I strongly believe we can get rid of germ theory altogether after this plandemic has run its course. The signs are there that the narrative is crumbling. In the meantime, we need to stay united as divided we fall.
When the current crop of conservative virus believing gurus say they are not anti-vaxxers, I sigh and move on. This is not the time to go to war with them. I have to remember that is hard for a man to see the truth if not seeing the truth pays his salary. The truth will eventually come out, but until then we have a bigger battle to fight.
The truth is difficult to find sometimes because we put layers upon layers of lies upon it. It is sometimes best to remove one protective layer at a time.
I look forward to your blogs every week. You do not disappoint.
This makes me think of Dr. Chris Knobbe's video outling the primary cause of death and how and why they have changed since the Civil War era. After air and water, what we eat has largest impact on our health and well being. Four years ago I changed my diet to single ingredient whole foods, eliminating sugar, factory oils and processed foods while getting blood work baseline numbers then suplementing vitamins, minerals and hormones as needed under a endocrinologist's supervison. My reason for this was weight loss, sleep management, immune function and overall health. I agree with your assessment and believe we can do better with eliminating environmental toxins while improving quality of nutrition rather than relying on small molecule pharmaceuticals.
Thank you for the great article.
