In effect, what we have is natural selection in process on a massive, human-initiated scale. "They" can try all they want to force individuals to get injected here in the US, but the initial pushback in the US has been strong, though not violent and court systems seem to be keeping the fascist corrupt government/corrupt business in check. At a higher level, it would seem that this entire experiment is also forcing us into two camps: those who wish to close their eyes, be part of a collective and be told what to do ... even if it means injury or death and those of us who understand history. Those who understand history will not back down, will not compromise and the US Constitution will shield us from the sociopaths, while we vigorously work to vote them out of all but 10% of the nations seats of power. They have made the biggest miscalculation in the history of being a stupid moron.

It seems nowadays, no truth at all, or a complete boldfaced lie, is still the same as the truth. I question everything.

I used to live by the old adage of "Trust, but verify", but Trust is gone now. All that remains is "Verify".

There is no longer any question about COVID for which the answer is not "more vaccines."

Julius I believe everything you have written in this article I'm not a scientist and probably not even very clever but what you have written just feels right. I have unfortunately had to be vaccinated to be able to continue to fly which I do often. Unfortunately here in NZ you cannot board a domestic flight now unless you have a vaccine pass and I am guessing in a few months time I will need to get a booster to continue to be able to travel. I did not want to get vaccinated I do not want any booster shots and are angry as hell about being forced into it and after reading your article are even more pissed off with it.

The coercion and segregation based on vaccine status is truly grotesque. I am hopeful at the number of people who are starting to speak out against this - fingers crossed this leads to real change... and soon!

Absolutely brilliant article and analysis. You have ruined my work day, but I couldn’t be happier and I will spread the word to all that I can. Thank you

except that Omicron may be older than 2020's viral version. Check out Ethical Skeptic:

Yes. No Furin cleavage site, perhaps a retained lot sample from the wild from before vaxx mutation/selection got serious. Add to this that Pfizer recently announced success(!) at managing Omicron in the lab with a vaxx that is based on a sequence that is 2 years old should raise an eyebrow. See Weinstein talking about phylogenetics of Omicron. It isn't a "variant" in the derivative-from-other-variants sense. It is like a superclade(?), or suchlike. Probably a zoonotic that would have passed unnoticed through the population as a simple cold if the planet wasn't being super neurotic about PCRing every sniffle. https://youtu.be/-hjFT8XCsH0?t=293

That article is incredible. I read it last month.

The frustrating thing is that I fear all evidence of unnatural spread/controlled variants has all been long deleted/shredded/buried by now.

(Totally unrelated question, GM - how is your dad? I have been concerned and thinking about you both. No need to reply if you don't want to.)

Thanks for asking. The truth is not great. His failed valves have been stabilized with medication for several weeks now, but the much bigger issue has become some kind of incredibly severe cognitive degeneration- he's violent, delusional, and completely confused. He's recently needed lots of restraints and sedation, something that as his health care proxy makes me sick to my stomach every time I find myself with no choice but to authorize it.

The optimistic people on his care team remain convinced that this is still acute alcohol withdrawal syndrome and that his cognitive abilities will return and it's just a matter of time- we've literally ruled out every other testable condition. The less optimistic think this is some kind of rapid-onset dementia which, at the rate he has been going downward, will mean incapacitation and death (dad has explicitly refused any and all life preservation in the event of permanent unconsciousness and other such). We have been reviewing living wills and such on his bad days.

Last night was unusually good- I had a sustained conversation with him that was sensible (he used sentences and his speech was logical) even if quite a bit of it was confused- he told me about people that weren't really there and so forth. But it was a major improvement in coherency and calmness. So who knows? Maybe he peaked and the cognitive shit is all withdrawal.

And crazily, this began as a sane man walking himself into the hospital for sudden-onset congestive heart failure as his biggest problem in life.

Oh, and I haven't forgotten that the sudden-onset CHF happened the day after a booster shot.

My thoughts remain with you both. I pray that there will be more moments of lucidity and calm in the days ahead. There is always room for hope. Much love and positive energy.

Thank you again for such a well-written piece. This, and your Snake-oil article, has been extremely helpful to me to understand much of what has been niggling me. I have been wondering when the matter of annual re-exposure, much like we have with influenza, would be addressed. And how that fitted in with the natural immunity narrative. I had an instinctive grasp of this - that we are constantly being exposed to slightly shifting variants, most of which we had some sort of "carry-over" immunity from previous exposures, but was wondering how this was explained in technical terms. And thus, if I understand correctly, our natural immunity is still neutralising for the exact replica of what we have already overcome, and is also a strong adversary for any subsequent "offspring" of the vanquished variant, correct? And these variants ordinarily (for their own endemic survival) would undergo a type of entropy towards "infectious enough to spread, but not deadly enough to eradicate its hosts". It therefore would make sense that we constantly hone our skills against these shifting variants by being exposed to them, and to utilise our "down time" to keep our bodies healthy and primed for battle. Vaccinations become somewhat redundant in this whole scenario, as they are always going to be a step behind what we are already doing. The fact that we are still being pushed to take a vaccine that's tailored only for the original strain and we're a whole bunch of greek letter variants down the road already, and the fact that the world will never be able to roll any "updates" out on time and simultaneously inject everyone makes this all so obvious, if you really think about it. And why even bother with Omicron? It appears to be the very thing that both the virus and the humans want, really - not too hot, and zipping through fast. If they want to make an old-fashioned flu jab for the latest variant, and offer that to the vulnerable and worried, like we always have, we could all just go back to normal.

What an article! Why do you not have more followers, Julius? This was one of the best reads I've had for a while.

Here is another substack writer who claims it is a no brainer to vaccinate your kids because the risks of myocarditis from the virus are reduced after vaccination: https://unchartedterritories.tomaspueyo.com/p/should-you-vaccinate-your-child

He claims to have looked at the literature from "anti-vaxxers". Can you provide a rebuffal to this?

Interesting about the singing exemption- the most litigiously cruel biofascists here in the US have explicitly called out singing as a no-no, especially in churches (the COVID state has particular relish in going after churches).

Babylon Bee has been right about so many other things, I wouldn't rule it out! Imagine how cheated the early vax adopters would feel if they actually did roll out a loyalty card now and didn't allow backdating.😉
