Nothing going on here – episode 8 – Doublethink


Nothing going on here – EPISODE 8

We have adopted government policies with a moral fervour that conflates un-skeptical compliance with civic duty. This means that when new information comes along that suggests we should start doing things differently, it becomes difficult, and even personally dangerous, to change our behaviour. Governments have become so invested in the Covid narrative that continues to repeat things that are simply not true and fall apart under even the most cursory analysis.

We are now deep into ‘double-think’ a term coined by George Orwell in his dystopian novel 1984. Double a process of indoctrination whereby the subject is expected to simultaneously accept two mutually contradictory beliefs as correct, often in contravention to one’s own memories or sense of reality. Double-think is perpetuated by ‘double-speak’ – language that deliberately obscures, disguises, distorts, or even reverses the meaning of words. Writer Edward S. Herman describes double-speak as follows:

What is really important in the world of doublespeak is the ability to lie, whether knowingly or unconsciously, and to get away with it; and the ability to use lies and choose and shape facts selectively, blocking out those that don’t fit an agenda or program.

This is why a vaccine that has been proven to not do what it was meant to do – end the pandemic – and by all the evolving science seems to actually be making things worse – is still touted as the only solution.

As studies emerge revealing that in the most highly vaxxed countries, the virus numbers are actually higher than in those with very limited vaccine uptake as a recent study from Harvard no discernable relationship between percentage of population fully vaccinated and new COVID-19 cases in the last 7 days (Fig. 1). In fact, the trend line suggests a marginally positive association such that countries with higher percentage of population fully vaccinated have higher COVID-19 cases per 1 million people.

We are told to get boosted as much as possible.

We were told that the vaccine would protect us from the virus, no it turns out it does not. We were told that the vaccine would stop the transmission of the virus and no it turns out it does not.

But we are told don’t ask questions just go get your booster.

We were told that the vaccine would protect people from hospitalization and now we see that the majority of those hospitalized with Covid are double jabbed.

And then we are told – go get your booster.

And now there is a new variant that the WHO has announced has killed a whopping 0 number of people and causes symptoms that are exactly the same as the common cold.. And yet the Guardian runs a story saying the ‘government experts’ are prediction up to 75000 people will be dead by April if – what for it, people don’t get their boosters.

So there’s this experimental vaccine that doesn’t protect you, doesn’t protect anyone else, doesn’t keep you out of hospital – and everyone should get it. In fact, it is their civic duty to get it. And if you don’t take it, we will take away your ability to live in normal society.

How can this be anything to do with the common good? Governments have hijacked the good intentions of people through fear-mongering and scapegoating.

More double think – the unvaccinated are the problem.

Now millions of people are going to find themselves suddenly among the numbers of the ‘unvaxxed’ if they don’t get their booster. What is more terrifying to people I wonder? The fear of getting Covid or the fear of becoming one of the untouchables?

More double think – vaccine immunity is better than natural immunity. This is not what the science is telling us. Natural immunity lasts for years, possibly a lifetime – vaccine immunity lasts 5 months, no 3 months. So what should we do? Go get your booster.

Children have no threat from Covid and there are clear safety signals that suggest the vaccine is dangerous to them and yet they should all also get vaccinated.

And the double think of all double thinks

The vaccinated can get and spread the virus. The problem is the unvaccinated. How has the failure of a medical intervention become the fault of the people who didn’t take it?

Because it is not about whether the vaccine works or not at this point. It is whether you subscribe to the social project or not, and the social project has become identified with taking the vaccine. It’s what the responsible people do. If you don’t take the vaccine, you are irresponsible and need to be punished and excluded from society.

What we need to understand now is that this is not about facts or reality. No amount of data or studies is going to convince the percentage of people who have become emotionally identified with the Covid narrative as an almost religious tenet. Because their conviction has nothing to do with science or logical or reality. It is the conviction of a zealot. A true believer. It doesn’t need to make sense. It needs only to inspire a sense of doing one’s part. However meaningless that might be.

Take your booster to be a good citizen. Boosters are now a social credit score. How many you have determines how good of a citizen you are. How eagerly you get it, how public you make it, how proudly you proclaim it.

Meanwhile the profits being made on the backs of these ‘good citizens’ is grotesque. New figures from the Peoples Vaccine Alliance reveal that the companies behind two of the most successful COVID-19 vaccines —Pfizer, BioNTech and Moderna— are making combined profits of $65,000 every minute. But we are led to believe that this is all for common good.

The vaccines are safe, we are told and yet when a group of scientists asked the US federal government to share the data it relied upon in licensing Pfizer’s Covid19 vaccine via the Freedom of Information Act, they were told, sure – in 55 years. 2076. To be precise.

The vaccines are safe, we are told, and people skeptical of them are conspiracy theorists.

But in Pfizer’s own report on adverse events from their Covid19 vaccine from April 30th 2021, in a 3 month period up to February 2021, out of 42,096 recipients there were 11,361 people who had serious adverse events from which they had not recovered – the report it says ‘unrecovered’. That is 27% of the recipients had no recovery.

Fatal were 1,223 – this is in Pfizer’s own report that I’ll link to in the show notes. You can read it for yourself. 1,223 fatal. And governments have known about this since April.

Why were we not told about this? Why was this not made public?

Don’t ask questions. Just get your booster.

Well, I submit that un-skeptical compliance is the opposite of civic duty and that now it is the civic duty of us all to hold governments to account and demand answers to these questions and not allow ourselves to get fobbed off with double-think. Our moral obligation is challenge the single narrative. If our media won’t do it then it is down to us. Raise questions, keep speaking out. Don’t be afraid of the difficult conversation. It must be had. Because there is no one who is going to do it for us. We are it. We are the line between unquestioning compliance of policies that are putting everyone in danger and a sane, rational, science-based and yes, compassionate response.
