"People are infected and do not know it"

I remember hearing this statement in 2020 and realizing what it meant. We locked down the world - put citizens in home arrest - in order to protect people from a thing that was not even a danger to them!

By this logic there is no need for real threats and dangers. Government only need claim a ubiquitous, invisible thing (doesn't even need to be real) might be a danger to someone and they can justify acts of tyranny.

Absolutely correct. I have said it before, but it bears repeating.

All that is needed to trigger a rerun is some propaganda, a planted rumor of something escaping from somewhere, anywhere, it doesn’t really matter, and some hypersensitive and nonspecific testing which picks up the common cold.

In other words, just like last time.

Yes, I agree, and would even add that those nonspecific tests detect “asymptomatic infections” of the “common cold.” Which of course begs the question of what the hell is “it” those tests are detecting? And is “it” the cause the common cold…asymptomatic included?

I’m looking forward to reading your article mentioned and linked to this one. Thank you Jonathan and Jessica - I appreciate you sharing all your great work and thoughts.

Bears repeating and cannot be restated too many times.

At least in the movies "Andromeda Strain" and "Outbreak" there *appeared* to be actual people getting sick, i.e., bleeding from the eyes and whatnot. Developing a cough and verifying "the virus" from a drive-through test via a cotton swab jammed up your nose plus magic, well, that seems a distant cry.

Hey, if it sells more shots, it's all good!

Agree and my argument is the ONLY way available to stop that rerun would be to expose the 'COVID pandemic' lie in it's entirely using the mountains of world leading official Scottish evidence to reach ordinary people yet you and HART and others 'speaking out' have never prioritised that pitch. This is the real tragedy of the 'COVID' era that popular 'dissidents' capable of reaching millions between them when handed the keys to unlock the cell door they've been complaining about for >5 years chose to throw them away? eg-If this is not good enough nothing will ever be good enough and therefore i shudder to think what may happen to populations during the next advertised public health threat.

Precisely. Which is exactly what they did in 2020 -- and successfully so.

MUCH easier than a conventional world war, was it not?

Except this time, the war was at home everywhere.

I suspect this is why it didn't last long. Had they been able to create a deadly "virus", it might have ended up like what Michael Nehls explained here.

https://robc137.substack.com/p/covid

It's also funny how those who see the East as "good" competing with the west ignore the fact that con-vid and dangerous shots had unified following among Russia and China. To this day, they speak like our side does, that COVID was deadly etc.

BTW, why would China let Western interests use their Wuhan lab which is in a big city? We wouldn't let them use ours. We have labs all over the place anyway, why China?

Another fun fact about the East: BRICS was having new members added and somehow a single nation, Brazil, was able to block Venezuela from entering. Sounds like the UN and the single veto power they give the few nations of the security council. In both cases it's not a democracy.

Do you still feel this way (from that piece):

"I'm not worried anymore.

They underestimated humanity.

What they tried to do with COVID showed how naturally resilient we are, even if delayed and not conscious."

To me it looks like we've barely dented the belief system.

Rob (c137)'s avatar

Yes, I still think they screwed up.

They intended us to follow it indefinitely.

People got the shots but stopped taking the boosters.

They might not be conscious of why yet, but they sense bullshit 😂

It seems to me that the ability of the ruling class to hoax the population has been seriously dented. They overplayed their hand and underestimated humanity. Friends & family are now questioning the climate change agenda as well. I would agree with Rob that "We are witnessing evolutionary psychology in motion." albeit slowly. Thanks for your work.

Yes, great comment.

As you say: “By this logic there is no need for real threats and dangers. Government only need claim a ubiquitous, invisible thing (doesn't even need to be real) might be a danger to someone and they can justify acts of tyranny.”

And the horrible realisation is…we are dominated by tyrannical governments, when we thought we were living in ‘free countries’.

The treachery…

''Now…how do we get accountability…get justice? ''

Elizabeth, if this is not good enough to facilitate those changes nothing will ever be good enough and so with all this and more being dismissed or ignored, populations are very likely going to be a real word of hurt with whatever comes in any post 'COVID' pandemc-2 event.

You can also have "asymptomatic polio", "asymptomatic syphilis", "asymptomatic AIDS", etc. I remember thinking "wow COVID is so dumb, how can you say someone can have a disease and is completely healthy, this is such a scam", whilst assuming that the other *REAL* diseases from the past had sensible case definitions, diagnostics, and so on.

Turns out this idea of "diseases so insidious you don't even know if you're sick" is the bedrock foundation of most (all?) infectious/contagious disease.

You’d think by now it would be glaringly obvious the emperor’s wearing no clothes and that the only pandemic to be feared is not coming from barnyard animals but one of snake oil salesmen.

Hey, gas millions of birds with foam depopulation methods designed to suffocate them and roll out the faithful Lie Machine, aka MSM, to tell the unwitting public- "It's a deadly virus!"

The pattern of problem-reaction-solution is a never-ending rerun that plays out in reality in the universe of the Pharmaceutical Industry Fantasy Cinema Theater- a well-seasoned and time honored strategy.

In the theatrical production of Avian Flu 2025™, the media-manufactured fowl-based fear factor was founded on a mere four “confirmed” cases “discovered” in dairy workers. The primary symptom that sounded the alarms for the Pharma friendly bureaucrats at CDC Inc. was conjunctivitis (pink eye), a catch-all term for inflammation of the eye.

Eliminated from consideration were more reasonable explanations for why farm workers might have eye irritations such as, ever-present dust and dander found on farms, the boatload of chemical residues (from Roundup e.g.) that circulate throughout factory farms, or the ubiquitous dairy farm mountains of manure which release toxic ammonia.

To kick start the next pandemic bonanza the virus hunters, who dutifully serve the pharmaceutical syndicate, call upon the tried and true PCR illusion to hornswoggle the public into believing that another sinister, free-floating microbe is ready to strike.

Known for its ability to be manipulated in order to obtain the desired results, the decidedly non-diagnostic PCR process has proven to be the perfect tool for the art of medical deception and for casting a spell on an ill-informed public.

Truth to be told, identifying The Virus™ is superfluous, as all they need to do is create the perception of a pandemic, manufacture mass panic with staged Hollywood productions, and doomsday models and use the fraudulent PCR tests to manufacture the perception of an incoming alien invasion.

Voila! Another boondoggle to funnel billions of tax dollars to Pharma executives and shareholders.

Any perceived threat to health, if believed, will deeply affect an individual's behaviour. I myself have fallen foul of this kind of racketeering in the past before I understood what is going on here. They know this of course and exploit it to the maximum in a carefully curated way. It's an insidious kind of cancer which permeates deeply into society and affects everyone, even the ones who don't fall for it. I just recently lost a good friend here who just had to travel to pursue his international golfing activities through Convid and there was only one way to do that. So he paid the ultimate price.

Thanks to you and Jessica for continuing to oppose the virus fraud. Like a weed, this needs to be pulled out at the root. The root here is acceptance of the existence and pathogenicity of viruses. Hopefully, more people will begin to question the underlying deceptions of virology as more and more phantoms are brought out to frighten them.

"In other words, it’s a phenomenon caused by looking for - and finding things - which are already there, and then reacting to them". Exactly. That says it all.

I have an example from today of how illogical people are about this: I was at a new dental appointment and went to give my cc to pay. The woman handed me a slip of paper and a pen to write down my cc information. When I asked why, she told me since “covid” they stopped handling people’s credit cards. I guess that pen and paper passed back and forth is safe but a cc passed back and forth is not.

A PhD scientist is losing sleep over another virus that produces cold symptoms: She's either lying or she has the sophistication of an 8 year-old that panics over seasonal ice melts and drowned polar bears. What kind of "scientist" wants to waste time and money "looking for people who might get it"? "Might"? "We're going to miss it" if we don't go looking for it? Gee, maybe if "we" don't notice "it" exists then the danger's 100% manufactured.

I remember a time in the distant past when people understood that the more dangerous a virus is, the less it spreads, and the more it spreads the less dangerous it is. Bird flu's alleged ubiquity implies that it's benign. How did Rasmussen get a PhD without ever learning that in evolutionary terms it's not in any organism's interest to kill off its hosts? There's nothing in nature that evolves with that goal, and the prey doesn't just sit there without evolving defenses, either. There's a reason why after millions of years lions still suck at hunting gazelles.

Rasmussen is part of the NIH Fauci cabal. Her livelihood, career, reputation is completely entrenched in "pandemic preparedness" , and responses to it, such as vaccines. Expect more and more desperation as their house of cards comes tumbling down.

Back in November 2020 when I still naively thought that I could use my Facebook page to 'wake up' some of my friends, I wrote the following allegorical tale to try an illustrate what I could see was going on:

Imagine it is twelve months ago and you are going about your everyday life as it once was before everything changed. One day you are shocked when someone dressed in full PPE gear turns up at your workplace.

They say; “I’ve been instructed by the government to test you for influenza”

You say; “Are you nuts? I don’t have flu! I don’t even have a cold. I know people who have had flu and they couldn’t get out of bed for days”

They say; “Ah, but this test is extremely sensitive, it can show us if you might have even the tiniest fragment of material that we think might have come from an influenza virus.”

You say; “But I’m not ill, I don’t have a sore throat, I don’t have a runny nose, I don’t have a temperature, I feel absolutely fine.”

They say; “Yes, we have found that around 80% of people who have a positive result with this test never have any symptoms at all. But even though we don’t yet have any proof, we think that it might be theoretically possible for someone who has no visible signs of illness to inadvertently make a vulnerable person very ill.”

You say; “Are you trying to tell me that all these years I could have been spreading disease to other people even when I’ve felt perfectly healthy?”

They say; “We don’t really know that but it’s an evolving science and haven’t you heard of the precautionary principle? Anyway, it is now a condition of your employment that you submit to testing on an annual basis.”

You say; “Well I’m not at all happy about this but I guess I don’t have a choice because I love my job and I can’t afford not to work.”

Two days later you receive a telephone call.

They say; “The test results are positive, you must immediately isolate yourself for 14 days.”

You say; “But that’s insane, I feel perfectly ok. It’s my birthday at the weekend, I’ve got a party organised for all my friends and next week we’ve got a holiday booked.”

They say; “I’m afraid you will have to cancel all that, you must isolate yourself from everybody in case you are infectious. Imagine how you would feel if you made someone really ill by having contact with them.”

You say; “But I had this test on Wednesday, what’s to say it wouldn’t have been positive if you’d tested me on Monday when I was still interacting with people, or a fortnight ago, or in August?”

They say; “Oh but we wouldn’t test people for influenza in the summer because everyone knows that flu is a winter disease.”

You say; “But have you ever tried using this test in the summer and seeing if you get any positive results as that might be a good way of finding out if the test results have any validity?”

They say; “Don’t worry about that, there are plenty more tests in development. In fact next summer we will be rolling out a nationwide screening programme to look for asymptomatic polio.”

You say; “WTAF and put the phone down.”

First of all, I LOVE the use of NotebookLM for developing "podcasts" like this. I have found it a wonderful tool, along with its ability to distill massive sources into bite-sized chunks more suitable for my little brain.

As for the main point you raise, someone long ago said something about how one finds whatever one looks for the hardest, or words to that effect. When loot is at the end of the find-what-we-seek rainbow, well, you know the answer.

I used to be a paid subscriber to ‘Redacted’ but stopped when I realised that they were never going to accept that there was no virus. You’d think that they were getting there, on the cusp of seeing the truth but then they would miss the mark. I can’t be sure, of course, but they seem too smart, too well-informed to be so gullible, so is it deliberate?

I’ve come to the conclusion that whether something is or isn’t “deliberate” is a complex and nuanced question.

It’s not black and white.

The forces which propel people to take certain positions, seek approval, maintain or advance status, avoid conflict, shirk from castigation etc are more powerful (and complex) than hitherto understood.

Also, the susceptibilities of individuals to different aspects of this vary enormously, according to their own circumstances.

“ Every new spillover gives the virus another chance to evolve and potentially spread person to person.”

The whole narrative is based on one assumption: dead particles called viruses (if they exist) will inevitably evolve new functions they could not have evolve with the host when eventually the spillover happens and they will become increasingly complex more infections and in the end more deadly…Because evolution is just like a magician who can pull out magical tricks of beneficial mutations rather than the usual ones mainly deleterious or neutral mutations…

Despite the fact that for few decades population genetics clearly has proven that beneficial mutations (viral escape) especially two simultaneous ones are extremely rare if not impossible, virologists and geneticists make claims as if beneficial mutations where happening every few generations…

That’s how they cooked the SARS CoV-2 variants scam every few months purely on evolutionary assumptions and not on facts…
