“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
NO – I do NOT mean that Pfizer went out and bought a copy of the magazine Scientific American, or Sci-Am, as we used to call it when I was a young, foolish, chump of a science student – long before I “learned to code”.
And NO – I do NOT mean that Pfizer bought the publication, Scientific American, lock stock and barrel.
What I do mean is that Pfizer BOUGHT OFF Scientific American.
I mean that Pfizer – now an arm of CHINA – obtained a controlling leverage over the publication Scientific American. Somehow, Pfizer BOUGHT THEM OFF.
So what evidence do I have?
GATHER ROUND, KIDDIES.
I may be old as the hills, but I’m not as old as Scientific American.
The above is what “vintage” Sci-Am of my era looked like.
Long before THAT, it looked like this:
As you can see, Sci-Am has been around for a while.
Sci-Am is somewhere on the border between actual scientific literature – particularly reviews and letters – and secondary literature like the “industry rags” that Pfizer whistleblower Karen Kingston was talking about. The rags – a somewhat disrespectful name, in my opinion – include Chemical & Engineering News, that magazine which I am so fond of using as a source for quality “face value” vaccine journalism.
C&EN, as they call it, is a product of the American Chemical Society.
Sci-Am, on the other hand, is a product of a scientific publisher called Springer. Here is what is written at the bottom of the Scientific American website:
Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www.springernature.com/us). Scientific American maintains a strict policy of editorial independence in reporting developments in science to our readers.
Now, just because these publications do quality and unbiased work, when motivated and allowed to do so, does NOT mean they can’t be taken over and controlled by entities such as – LET’S SAY – China.
Springer and ACS may SAY that they’re not controlled by their CCP and/or Big Pharma “partners”, but anybody who has watched America’s own Hollywood turn anti-American and absolutely paralyzed about saying or doing anything that might “offend” China, understands who is REALLY the boss now.
Pfizer. And China.
Indeed, we did a post about this rather recently, which resulted in quite a few outages of this site.
I was just visiting a certain store of my acquaintance which sells – somewhat surprisingly – magazines, including Scientific American.
Years ago, I frequently bought Sci-Am and other magazines at that store. Sadly, as the “science” in Sci-Am became more and more “woke”, it became less and less of interest to me.
What I would find in the THINNER and THINNER issues of Sci-Am, was more and more authoritarian virtue signaling to major media-endorsed “dubious science”, and less and less robust scientific and journalistic skepticism (to say nothing of ETHICAL skepticism, rare as hen’s teeth).
As I stood in said store, looking at the latest issue’s cover (well, the latest that said local store might have), I laughed at the BULLSHIT COVER IMAGE – a literal propaganda “shop job” – which would have never even been allowed into the cheap and cheesy “back pages” of the Sci-Am of my youth.
Good GRIEF. It’s like a cross between Madison Avenue and the Nazi school science textbook that my dear mother saved all these years. Fascist propaganda, marketed as education. Not everybody could see that in Germany at the time, and not everybody can see it now. But that is precisely what this cover is. Fascist propaganda. Virtue signaling to the regime.
The “vapor storms” propaganda is obvious, and part of the fascist climate scam, so there was no reason for me to buy this issue. I dare not give a dime to Green-Hearted Greta’s Groovy Grift. If I wanted to spend my time debunking the latest scare-scam in climate grift, I would, but that’s somebody else’s job. I can barely keep up with the COVID grift as it is.
But then I saw that little blurb up in the upper right-hand corner.
“Gene Therapy Finally Works”
Really! Well, that might be interesting.
[ You will notice that I was already “chumping out” right there – ASSUMING this would be educational. ]
So I go looking for the Table of Contents page – which turned out to be two pages – the first being the “hot stuff” and the second being “everything else”. Eventually I found what I was looking for on the first page. The “gene therapy” stuff took up the last third of the listings, but comprised over 2/3 of the listed page numbers.
SPECIAL REPORT
S1 Innovations in Gene Therapy
S2 Gene Therapy Comes of Age
S3 The Gene Fix by Esther Landhuis
S6 Graphic: Editing the Book of Life
S8 Overcoming Gene Therapy’s Long Shadow by Tanya Lewis
S12 Success Stories by Jim Daley
S15 High Hopes by Marla Broadfoot
It looked like the “special report” was near the end. I found the section and thumbed though it. It looked not only readily understandable, but reasonably scientific – a lot like what I expect from C&EN.
GREAT, I thought – I can learn some more gene therapy science that I can use to understand the COVID GRIFT, since one of the mRNA vaccine platform’s primary motivations was clearly to “grease the skids” for gene therapy.
It wasn’t until I got home, that I fully realized what I had just bought.
The “special report” – 20 pages long – with only 66 magazine pages before it and 7 after it (73 total) – many of them full-page ads – was actually a kind of “infomercial advertorial“.
It was LITERALLY paid, sponsored, scientific reporting by (allegedly) free-lance scientists.
The last page explained it all. Big, blue, and in the middle, this:
This section was produced independently with support from
Pfizer
SPECIAL REPORT FROM
SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN
nature
ScientificAmerican.com/InnovationsIn/gene-therapy
Don’t bother with that URL – it doesn’t work.
BUT WAIT – THERE’S MOAR
After ALL of the 73 pages of non-Pfizer (I checked) content AND the 20 page Pfizer advertorial, was ANOTHER 5-page Pfizer spread, boosting PFIZER’S own efforts in gene therapy. Followed, at long last, by one more ad and one numbered page – 74.
So – we have basically 75 pages of non-Pfizer and 25 pages of Pfizer, for a grand total of 25% Pfizer.
Scientific American – now with 25% Pfizer content.
So – is this a new phenomenon?
As it turns out, NO.
Pfizer apparently started on this push BEFORE COVID. Conveniently before COVID.
I have no idea how many Sci-Am advertorials they do, but I know of at least one more.
THIS ONE was in January of 2019, and it’s available online.
So – the good part of one year before the COVID release from Wuhan, where Pfizer has its nice new Chinese operation, we get a gene therapy promotional in Scientific American.
Let’s do that one in text for Zoe, and to focus on something very “Event 201”, which I have emphasized in bold.
Realizing the Promise of Gene Therapy Through Collaboration and Partnering: Pfizer’s View
Gene therapy for single-gene disorders is at a pivotal period in its evolution, with continued successful development requiring tight collaboration among industry, academic, regulatory, clinical and patient communities.
Sounds about like what happened, thanks to the phony crisis, backed by Chinese PLA 4GW and our treasonous “collaborators”.
Kinda sad how media lies helped assure “patient collaboration” – right up to the death vents, murderous remdesivir, and $30K a pop for dead Deplorables – from their own tax money.
Hitler would have been proud to have pulled the COVID grift – getting the money for the gold teeth before he even got the teeth.
Now, it turns out that finding this older advertorial online, allowed me to find a URL for the new one, too.
You will notice that the non-functioning URL for this November 2021 advertorial:
ScientificAmerican.com/InnovationsIn/gene-therapy
…..is DIFFERENT from the one for the January 2019 advertorial. The printed URL does NOT work. However, this one, crafted in analogy to the older one, does:
SO – if you want to read the same gene therapy articles that I will be reading, they’re online and available for your perusal.
I could go on and add many more scandalous things about today’s Pfizer that I have in various bookmarks and tabs on my computer, but enough is enough for this post.
Ever since Trump criticized Pfizer for getting CDC to suspend the Johnson+Johnson vaccine, and ever since #PfizerLeak hit the internet…..

…..it has become very clear that Pfizer has been a key player in all that has befallen us.
Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla can call us “criminals”, but quite frankly it’s not gonna stick any more than Hitler calling innocent Jews “criminals” stuck. We are, in fact, a rather puny and broken force, a lot like those who fought fascism the last time. We are a sad collection of allies, not even sure what unites us.
But we do have one thing in common.
WE ARE NOT CRIMINALS.
Maybe Pfizer should tell their pet American president – their criminal president – to end the fucking mandates. Because if it doesn’t happen, people like me are going to die, but there will also be justice, and not all of the people brought to justice will live.

Thanks to INDIA – which gets historic Chinese duplicity – for making me see the connection between Pfizer the company, which is fast becoming a CHINESE-based multinational, and what Pfizer is doing globally.
You see, I remember hearing from the VERY FIRST PFIZER WHISTLEBLOWER – who the treasonous media tried very hard to silence, if you will recall – that Pfizer was making all kinds of outrageous demands from different nations, in the contracts for its vaccine.

One of the CRAZIEST demands was MILITARY BASES as collateral.
What in the HELL does Pfizer need with military bases? America might, but……
At the time, I was thinking “No WAY would America do that. It’s just so BLATANT.”
Well, I wasn’t thinking BIG ENOUGH.
Let’s follow this information back to the source from where I first got it.
does this sound like an American Co? No, this sound like a RED CHINESE conglomerate, so are they?
Pfizer Reserves the Right to Silence Governments – Pfizer is silencing the governments through its contracts. It has forced countries not to talk about the deals they strike for shots.
Pfizer Controls Distribution of Shots – Pfizer controls the donations of the shots, not the country that buys them. Pfizer will decide where the shots go.
Pfizer Secured an “IP Waiver” for Itself – If Pfizer is accused of intellectual property theft, governments will pay not the company.
Private Arbitrators, not Public Courts, Decide Disputes in Secret – If there are disputes, private arbitrators and not public courts will decide on them
Pfizer Can Go After State Assets – Pfizer can go after state assets to secure its compensation.
Pfizer Calls the Shots on Key Decisions – Pfizer decides delivery timeline and more.
It turns out that the Pfizer Wuhan operation was nicely exposed in an article back in July of this year.
One of the things you will note as you read the article, is that there was indeed some effort to cover up Pfizer having a huge research center at the epicenter of the outbreak of the disease that they are making so much money on, thanks to the outbreak.
[WOLF NOTE: I am just including SOME of the great research from this article to give you a taste.]
In 2010, Pfizer founded an R&D facility at China’s National Bio-industry Base in Wuhan (Biolake). By 2015, Pfizer was moving its “medicine safety business” from India to the Wuhan Biolake facility. Lan Zhanghua, the site head of Pfizer (Wuhan) Research & Development Co Ltd. stated in 2016: “Every one of Pfizer’s new drugs has indispensable contributions from the Wuhan team.“ He states that two R&D “functions run exclusively at Wuhan and nowhere else in the world… our Wuhan teams manage the clinical trial registry information and clinical trial master files for all Pfizer’s medicines”. https://archive.md/puanr Pfizer should be under investigation by the FBI-Homeland Security, but they almost certainly are not.
According to a data leak, Pfizer has employed 69 known members of the Chinese Communist Party. This sounds like a low number, considering that around 500 people work at their Wuhan site. Maybe this is members working for Pfizer outside China? See: “Huge Data Leak of 2 Million CCP Members Reveals ‘Golden Age’ of Chinese Espionage” By Daniel Y. Teng, December 14, 2020 https://archive.vn/5O49L
Pfizer is one of the major beneficiaries of SARS-CoV 2 (Covid-19), which started in Wuhan, China: “Pfizer Reaps Hundreds of Millions in Profits From Covid Vaccine: The company said its vaccine generated $3.5 billion in revenue in the first three months of this year”, New York Times, May 4, 2021: https://archive.md/l6Sy1. It accounted for almost a quarter of Pfizer’s total revenue and they will make close to an estimated $1 billion in vaccine profits for the first three months alone. (NYT estimate is $900 million pretax.)
“The Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine is an unapproved vaccine that may prevent COVID-19. There is no FDA-approved vaccine” for Covid-19. Notice that they don’t put “death” as one of the risks. They merely note that “These may not be all the possible side effects of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine. Serious and unexpected side effects may occur. Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine is still being studied in clinical trials”. This is not informed consent! https://www.fda.gov/media/144414/download
As of December 2020, Pfizer’s SEC filing still listed the following subsidiaries in Communist China, which carries the false name of “People’s Republic of China”: Pfizer (China) Research and Development Co. Ltd, Pfizer (Wuhan) Research and Development Co. Ltd., and Pfizer Biologics (Hangzhou) Co. Ltd., as well as Pfizer International Trading (Shanghai) Limited, Pfizer Investment Co. Ltd., Pfizer Pharmaceutical (Wuxi) Co., Ltd., Pfizer Pharmaceuticals Science and Technology Co., Ltd., Pfizer Finance Share Service (Dalian) Co., Ltd. https://archive.md/SMPQaFunny thing that the Wuhan R&D isn’t listed as one of their R&D locations on the Pfizer web site. Even prior to the Covid-19 outbreak, it wasn’t listed: https://web.archive.org/web/20190321054103/https://www.pfizer.com/science/research-development/centers If you do a search for Wuhan on their web site, you don’t find it, as of this writing. If you type China in the search you find some relevant things.
On a separate Pfizer (China) site (last updated in 2011) one can find regarding Pfizer’s China Research and Development Center (Shanghai and Wuhan): “CRDC supports Pfizer’s global biological and chemical pharmaceutical R&D programs across our clinical development pipeline, and serves as an important hub of Pfizer global and Asia-Pacific R&D activities. As such, CRDC is an integral part of Pfizer’s global R&D site network, providing support across many R&D disciplines, including clinical drug development, medical, regulatory and safety.” See this and more here: https://archive.md/IQBZy
Pfizer founded an R&D facility in Wuhan (October 8, 2010) at China’s National Bio-industry Base in Wuhan (Biolake). It was the first Fortune 500 company to located at Wuhan’s Biolake facility. By 2015, Pfizer was moving its “medicine safety business” (whatever that means) from India to the Wuhan Biolake facility.
Lan Zhanghua site head of Pfizer (Wuhan) Research & Development Co Ltd. stated: “We developed beyond expectation. Now the Wuhan team has comprehensive coverage in Pfizer’s medicine development. Every one of Pfizer’s new drugs has indispensable contributions from the Wuhan team.“
Whereas, Pfizer’s Wuhan team started “performing only one function to 12 functions in the R&D system. Two functions run exclusively at Wuhan and nowhere else in the world: ‘No other but our Wuhan teams manage the clinical trial registry information and clinical trial master files for all Pfizer’s medicines. These are of utmost importance – making any mistake or losing documents could mean the medicine would never go to market,’ Lan said.”
As of 2016, Pfizer employed almost 500 people at the Wuhan site.
It is now VERY clear that the spike protein vaccines were a case of “designed obsolescence”. They were designed to peter out with spike variation, and to not give the same superior, robust “natural” immunity that the disease gives, through nucleocapsid antibodies.
THAT enables MORE CLOT SHOTS. More “abortion vaccines”. MORE population control.
At the same time the “vaccines” enforce inferior immunity, the spike was the first step toward cutting back human longevity. Population reduction through incrementally distributed disease.
It’s a SELF-FUNDING DEPOPULATION PROGRAM.
The most diabolical form of “smallpox blankets” ever devised. Distributed to all of humanity.
The murderous LancetGate Effect is back, and this time it killed thousands before bureaucrats relented and allowed doctors to save patients.
[ Hat Tip to barkerjim for alerting me to this Indonesian case. ]
Part 1 – LancetGate Effect 1.0 and 1.1
Ah, the memories of LancetGate! That moment when “they” “finally” “proved” that hydroxychloroquine didn’t work.
Until – it turned out – they had proved nothing. For when honest people looked at the bogus Surgisphere study, embarrassingly published in The Lancet, they realized that it was absolute horseshit, built on bad data, by people who had no idea what they were doing, other than trying to KILL hydroxychloroquine. Presumably on behalf of Mysterious Unknown Bill Gateses and Nations That Might Be China.
The trouble is, by the time the study was proven to be a bunch of happy horseshit, bureaucrats had eagerly and enthusiastically banned hydroxychloroquine for treatment of COVID-19 in several countries, and tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people worldwide were denied hydroxychloroquine, many of them dying within that typical 14-day window in which COVID-19 kills people.
However, something interesting happened when hydroxychloroquine was banned in Switzerland.
Because the bans of HCQ were all planned and coordinated around the release of the false study, they went into effect almost immediately, with relentless efficiency. It was in some cases immediately impossible for doctors to get hydroxychloroquine.
THAT created a sharpness in the curves.
Fourteen days later, the deaths from COVID-19 began spiking – HARD. Now, people were criticizing the study almost immediately, and within a few weeks, the study was already looking very shaky, as The Lancet started backing down, ultimately leading to retraction.
The Swiss didn’t wait that long to correct their error. They saw the deaths, allowed HCQ back into the hands of doctors, saving the lives of patients, again with GREAT SUDDENNESS, despite the “best wishes” of neo-Nazi KlauSS Schwab and the WEFFEN SS Great Resetters, who needed more dead people – even their own pitiful Davos plebes.
And THIS was the result.
It was a STUNNING little blip in the data.
The result was even more interesting when compared to France, where HCQ was immediately suppressed, thanks to communist bureaucrat Agnes Buzyn, who swiftly made the OTC drug almost unobtainable.
Allow me to explain these graphs.
France starts off worse than Switzerland due to suppression of hydroxychloroquine, and gets even worse as supplies dry up, while Switzerland gets better immediately, with doctors experimenting with treatments based on the earlier research and cutting-edge studies, including both chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine. A stunning indictment of post-Soviet bureaucracy.
So why does France start getting better (going down)? That is the result of research by Prof. Didier Raoult in Marseilles, in the South of France, who quickly got extremely positive results by semi-prophylactic “early treatment” of both the virus and subsequent pneumonia, using a combination of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and azithromycin (AZM), without waiting for positive test results for bacterial infection. This idea of prophylactic antibiotics is KEY to saving lives, and later influenced Dr. Zelenko in America to try a combination of HCQ, AZM, and zinc, given at the first sign of the disease, as an outpatient treatment. Zelenko gets wildly good results, preventing hospitalizations and deaths at nearly 100% level, yet is unable to get organizations like the AMA to acknowledge the treatment.
The problem for Prof. Raoult was that he was immediately vilified by the forces of Big Pharma. Some of it was absolutely stunning. Nevertheless, there was a strong group of “populist” doctors and scientists in France, and also internationally, who supported Raoult, even though the MONEY was clearly against him.
Nonetheless, Raoult was winning the hearts and minds of practitioners in France – particularly in the South of the country, and admirers around the world. And THAT is why the numbers kept getting better.
One of my favorite French memes…..
And then LANCETGATE happened, as you can see in the graph.
And then the LancetGate Effect, fully visible when LancetGate was exposed, and HCQ was allowed back into the physician’s arsenal of salvation.
France was already operating under a “ban” on hydroxychloroquine, and there was considerable pressure on Prof. Raoult, but it did not really get worse for him, or for other doctors using HCQ in spite of the ban, until a few weeks into the LancetGate Effect, where you can see a lesser effect than in Switzerland starting to happen in France, but an upward trend in deaths just the same. But the main point THERE is that the Swiss results ALMOST joined the French results.
Now, one of the confirmations of this was a SIMILAR effect in America.
The scale below is upside-down from above. In this case, UP is GOOD, DOWN is BAD.
Thanks to the WUWT weather and climate guys for finding this little nugget.
If you want to read more about these cases, please click on two old blog posts here which talk about the LancetGate Effect.
The first one talks about the effect itself.
The second involves a huge counteroffensive against all the people who had maligned hydroxychloroquine, in which Dr. Zelenko began collecting all the evidence, before it could be deleted.

You will notice in these old articles that Twitter has now BLOCKED all my tweet threads on the LancetGate Effect, by “suspending” my account. Someday Jack Dorsey will answer for this!
Part 2 – LancetGate Effect 2.0
The following information was nicely captured in TWO articles in The Gateway Pundit.
Note that time has passed between LancetGate Effects 1.0 and 2.0 – the drug of choice for treating COVID-19 is now IVERMECTIN – at high enough doses that it shows a pronounced ANTIVIRAL effect. Fortunately, the antiparasitic drug has such an incredibly high therapeutic margin, it actually has a usable secondary antiviral activity.
Who would have known? THAT is science – and science in service of humanity.
The graph that really explains things is this one.
Now I will immediately tell you that the labeling of the graph is “true but misleading”. It LOOKS like the graph is saying:
“They banned ivermectin on 06/12/21 and the number of cases took off. Then it was approved on 07/15/21 and it dropped again.”
That is NOT the case. That “Ivermectin banned” arrow could just as easily point at the whole line to the left of the July 15th arrow.
The REAL reason for the huge spike is the arrival of the DELTA VARIANT in Indonesia. That hit the previously isolated island country, and the cases took off. AT THAT TIME, ivermectin was still banned, because the Indonesian health ministry was following the advice of WHO, CDC, FDA, and the EU.
BIG MISTAKE.
Here is another look at the data.
You can see how deaths track cases in time. After ivermectin was approved and made widely available, due to the desperation of the authorities, no longer willing to listen to Western Bolshevik and Globalist media propaganda, both reported cases and deaths dropped like a rock.
This is not hard.
Namibia did the same thing, and got great results.
What education are you talking about. In Namibia, Africa we used ivermectin in my hometown. Cases dropped like a rock, same as in india and indonesia. It's clear who the ignorant one is. For god's sake you hold a Phd, act like it!
People in America were simply not prepared to see just how mercenary Big Pharma really is, particularly now that it operates hand-in-glove with the Wokester Bolshevik and Globalist Scum. People in the “third world” are quite familiar with the concept, however. They know that they are barely even numbers to the elite globalists who run the planet – who operate with far more concern for imperial politics than for the people themselves.
Part 3 – Accountability
India has had its own experiences with ivermectin, and as far as India is concerned, ivermectin saved the day there, too.
A different state was not so lucky. They listened to the wrong woman, thereby dropping ivermectin for a while, and many people died.
The problem is, India has its own problem with UN-loving idiot wokesters who value globalist conformity over truth, and it resulted in THOUSANDS OF DEAD.
However, there is also accountability.
Although this has largely been covered up by the globalist media, Indian authorities have decided to prosecute their own “Fauci” for misleading the public on ivermectin, which led to thousands of people dying.
India charges WHO Scientist Soumya Swaminathan: India is a forefront nation in demanding accountability from the WHO, the Indian Bar Association (IBA) now suing WHO Chief Scientist Dr. Soumya Swaminathan.
They are accusing her of causing the deaths of many Indian citizens by misleading them about the effect of Ivermectin, which she stated did not work against Covid-19.
As a result, the use of Ivermectin to cure Covid-19 was stopped and Covid cases exploded with deaths increasing ten-fold.
Point 56 states: “That your misleading tweet on May 10, 2021, against the use of Ivermectin had the effect of the State of Tamil Nadu withdrawing Ivermectin from the protocol on May 11, 2021, just a day after the Tamil Nadu government had indicated the same for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. (Feature photo: WHO Scientist Dr. Soumya Swaminathan)
Specific charges included the running of a disinformation campaign against Ivermectin and issuing statements in social and mainstream media to wrongfully influence the public against the use of Ivermectin despite the existence of large amounts of clinical data showing its profound effectiveness in both prevention and treatment of COVID-19.
In particular, the Indian Bar brief referenced the peer-reviewed publications and evidence compiled by the ten-member Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance (FLCCC) group and the 65-member British Ivermectin Recommendation Development (BIRD) panel headed by WHO consultant and meta-analysis expert Dr. Tess Lawrie.”
Will Fauci, Walensky, and “Thalidomide Janet” Woodcock see justice?
Thanks to Grandmaintexas for finding this amazing video, which I am promoting to a post, so that other bloggers and websites might see it and pick it up.
Most of us are familiar with all the elite names, but we really don’t understand even a tiny fraction of how, precisely, they relate to each other.
We don’t understand how their NETWORK operates. Not really.
What’s truly surprising is how simple it all is, when presented clearly.
While the information in this 1-hour video is skeletal, it is essential, core-cutting, and brilliantly presented. It provides a FRAMEWORK that PROVES how the different players in the elite relate to each other.
It’s both FASCINATING and EMPOWERING.
And it’s EXTREMELY Q and “Great Awakening”, and you WILL see why.
Somebody wants you to see this and STAND THE FUCK UP.
You will NEVER, EVER back down when confronted about the Rothschilds or George Soros as “conspiracy theories” after you watch this. You will LAUGH at anybody who tries to pretend these elite scumbags are not key players in the problems we face. You will know HOW they are affecting us, and that it is NOT good.
You will understand WHY they’re doing what they’re doing.
WHY they did what they did on January Sixth.
To call somebody a “Soros D.A.” will mean something – that she’s a SHOE-SHINE GIRL of the elite.
Why would we mass treat a virus with a drug which forces the virus to mutate, when mutation is how the virus creates new variants that reinfect the vaccinated?
Before I explain the title contradiction, let me start with an admission.
Most of my life, I have been very friendly with the pharmaceutical industry. I have eloquently defended Big Pharma, the FDA, “government and corporate medical science”, and all those things that the Biden administration so earnestly defends now.
I even got an award sponsored by one of those Big Pharma companies – which is not to say much, because they give out a LOT of them. In fact, the grooming of young scientists to revere Big Pharma, is no different from the grooming of doctors (and now medical bureaucrats, who know less “talk-back” science) to promote and prescribe their products.
If you go back and look through my posts here, you will see that my thinking about Big Pharma has only evolved slowly from starry-eyed hope and blissful faith. I was quite earnest in my wishes that some of their new products might be better than doctor-discovered, repurposed, off-label drugs like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.
What I would NOT do, was deny the obvious effectiveness of those cheap, plentiful, and SAFE doctor-discovered drugs.
If the world was against HCQ, then “Lupus contra mundum” (Wolf against the world).
Why so? Because the DATA on these two drugs killing virus and preventing death was so alarmingly GOOD. You just have to be HONEST and INDEPENDENT to see it. Then, you just ask WHY. And the answers came.
It was BEAUTIFUL. It was SCIENCE.
Even when it was ugly. Like the Lancetgate Effect.
I’m a DATA GUY. I know WHICH data matters and WHICH data doesn’t. I can SEE THROUGH CURVES like a horny guy next to a woman in bed in the dark, seeing her under the sheets. With DATA, I can see through walls. I can see around corners. I have escaped death many times by seeing what nobody else saw.
It’s a gift from GOD, and I don’t waste it.
I really WANTED remdesivir to work, but then I saw the numbers. I could not unsee them. I was forced to admit that the drug DID not work, and COULD not work, in large part because it was being administered too late.
Antivirals work best EARLY, when they have an overwhelming numerical advantage – which is very hard to obtain over an EXPONENTIAL ENEMY. But if you administer early, even ATYPICAL antivirals like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, in proper ANTIVIRAL doses, have a chance.
Remdesivir is fairly toxic stuff, and when administered too late, when the virus is long gone, it kills its victims in a way surprisingly similar to what late-stage COVID does, by kidney failure, and then pulmonary dysfunction which looks like pneumonia. So if you administer remdesivir to dying COVID patients, it may not do THEM any good, but it will make YOU a whole lot of money on their deaths, which are thus ENSURED. And YOU won’t get caught doing it, because it all looks like COVID.
There will be justice for Veronica Wolski, because we will DEMAND IT. And until there IS justice, we will drag the CRIMES of Anthony Fauci and Gilead “Pharmaceuticals” and their SLEAZY ASSOCIATES thorough the headlines, over and over, until people SPIT IN THEIR PATH as they walk down the streets. So where do we begin? …
Remdesivir goes really well with murderous vents and no prior therapeutics, and NO, NO, NO ivermectin allowed, which – DO TELL – is exactly how the Stalinist Biden-Obama-Harris administration and its CHINAZI allies kill off us pesky American seniors.
But that’s getting a little ahead of things. We’ll come back to remdesivir.
First – molnupiravir.
Molnupiravir was once called EIDD-2801, back when it was more of a hope and a dream.
I had high hopes for molnupiravir back then. I had hoped it would be a significantly better antiviral than hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, both of which are antiparasitics first, and antivirals second – and at that, only by a bit of luck. But that LUCK can SAVE YOUR LIFE.
That was back when I didn’t realize how diabolical the people who CONTROL Big Pharma really are – that they would SHIT on a lucky, life-saving break, just for money.
As it turns out, molnupiravir is roughly as good as the cheaper drugs, but definitely not as safe.
Nevertheless, molnupiravir is NEW, it’s PATENTABLE, and it’s a MONEYMAKER. The system is RIGGED, and thus we are DENIED the cheaper, safer drugs, so that our money will fund expensive drug research.
Whatever. That is just the way things are. I didn’t know that, when I was a student. I didn’t realize that the system was actually corrupt. Although the system probably wasn’t as bad back then, either.
Chinese communist ethics have filtered into America, and they have not done Big Pharma any good.
Would I take molnupiravir? Maybe. If I had to pick ONE, it would probably be ivermectin. Second choice, hydroxychloroquine. Third, molnupiravir. I don’t think I would take remdesivir next – I’d probably try acyclovir. That stuff really WORKED for my shingles – TWICE. It might not work on a coronavirus, but at least it wouldn’t kill my kidneys.
Now that you know how I feel about the drugs, let’s talk about WHY I feel that way. But in a roundabout and very telling manner.
Here is a synthesis of molnupiravir from cytidine – the molecule that it mimics in order to kill RNA viruses, including SARS-CoV-2.
If you look at the molecular structure of molnupiravir above, on the right, you will see two rings. The pentagonal ring with an “O” (oxygen) is a SUGAR ring, and the hexagonal ring with two “N” (nitrogen) atoms is a BASE ring.
Together, those two rings are ALMOST a nucleoside – a component of RNA – called cytidine, shown above on the LEFT, or below.
The only real differences between molnupiravir and cytidine, as shown, are the tail on the left of molnupiravir, hanging off the left-hand O group (and which really only helps the delivery of the drug), and more importantly, that extra “OH” group, hanging off the right-hand NH group of the molnupiravir molecule, in the diagram above.
Add that OH group to cytidine, and you have N4-hydroxycytidine (NHC) – the “real” drug being administered, also known as EIDD-1931. Add that little ester tail on the left, to make a nice orally active and bioavailable “prodrug” of NHC, and you have molnupiravir, or EIDD-2801.
That OH group totally screws things up. It’s absolutely AMAZING what that does to the genetic machinery of the virus, inside YOU.
FAKE cytidine, like FAKE NEWS, kills.
There is a great but still fairly technical explanation of how molnupiravir works that was published in Nature, called “Molnupiravir: Coding for Catastrophe“. You can download a PDF of the article HERE.
The abstract is very useful:
Molnupiravir, a wide-spectrum antiviral that is currently in phase 2/3 clinical trials for the treatment of COVID-19, is proposed to inhibit viral replication by a mechanism known as ‘lethal mutagenesis’. Two recently published studies reveal the biochemical and structural bases of how molnupiravir disrupts the fidelity of SARS-CoV-2 genome replication and prevents viral propagation by fostering error accumulation in a process referred to as ‘error catastrophe’.
I used part of one graphic from the paper for the feature image of this article. That graphic shows crude, flattened structures of both molnupiravir, and the fully phosphorylated fake nucleotide that gets incorporated into the virus RNA, which is called molnupiravir triphosphate, or MTP.
Technically, it’s really not molnupiravir any more, after that prodrug ester gets replaced by a triphosphate unit – it should really be called N4-hydroxycytidine triphosphate. But that pickiness is confusing – MTP is still very true in spirit, and that’s FINE with us big picture types.
Now – THIS is where it all happens. This is where THINGS GO WRONG, and the drug starts to work.
That OH group hanging off the NH of molnupiravir CHANGES the nature of the nitrogen atom to which it is attached, and in a BIG way. Suddenly, the little hydrogen atom that is attached to that nitrogen, would almost rather be located on the OTHER nitrogen in the ring, instead of staying where it is, on the sideshain nitrogen, next to OH. In fact, that hydrogen atom almost stops caring which place it stays. This is a phenomenon called tautomerism. It’s a molecule that can exist in two forms.
One little proton. It’s now happy either way.
But RNA? It ain’t happy.
So what happens, is MTP goes into RNA where CTP should go. And once M is in there where C should be, M can’t make up its mind where that little proton should go. If the machinery sees M with the hydrogen where C would keep it, the machinery does the right thing, and M just gets treated like C. No mutation. But if the hydrogen is in the other place, the machinery thinks M is actually U, and a mutation occurs.
You can see that in this next diagram, where the “hydroxylamine” (-NHOH) form binds correctly with GTP, but the “oxime” form (=NOH) binds INCORRECTLY with ATP.
In the next graphic, you can see how M gets incorporated for C, and starts to cause problems by leading to U instead of C. The events shown in the graphic follow a sequence I’ll try to describe.
If you can’t follow it, don’t worry. This stuff is always confusing when you track the changes.
Starting from the top, below……
one ringer M is already present (top strand), while M competes with C to match the next G (two choices shown waiting)
the second ringer M goes in on the bottom strand, to match the G, where C should have gone
the second ringer M (now on top, follow UACGM from left) is then matched with a new A (WRONG) on the bottom, instead of a G (two choices shown). You can also see (and this is very complicated) that the first ringer M was matched with a G (now shown on top), and that G has already matched up to ANOTHER (third) ringer M, now on the bottom strand in the third subgraphic.
the strand with incorrect A (follow UMAA from right to left on bottom, now on TOP, right to left) is then matched with a U on the second A, completing the screw-up from C to U
the net effect, bottom strand, is that UACG[C] (top of diagram, what should have happened) became UACG[U] (bottom of diagram, what did happen)
One can look at this whole process as N4-Hydroxycytidine (M) cutting in line where C was supposed to go, and then handing things off to the WRONG base, so that C gets replaced by U.
Complicated, isn’t it? But THAT is how mutations are PROMOTED by this drug, and they are KEY to how it works. There is an AVALANCHE of mutations that kills the virus. The whole idea is that the DRUG makes the virus mutate too much, too fast, into non-viable forms, and it just dies – or at least enough for your immune system to take over and WIN the fight. The virus CRASHES because of the drug. Meanwhile, the body mounts a defense.
You can read the rest of the article if you want, and get some sense of the complexity of considerations as to whether this makes a good drug or not for the individual.
There IS a legitimate question of whether screwing up the RNA of the virus, might also lead to screw ups in the host – either in RNA or DNA, leading to things like birth defects, cancer, adverse events during therapy, etc.
That concern is nicely summarized in a Zero Hedge article:
“Proceed With Caution At Your Own Peril” – Merck’s COVID ‘Super Drug’ Poses Serious Health Risks, Scientists Warn
Now, I’m not really interested – for the purposes of this article – in the question of whether or not there are INDIVIDUAL dangers posed by molnupiravir, due to either mutations of the host, OR the forcing of mutation of the virus in that host.
There are excellent reasons to believe, that just like vaccines don’t really pose INDIVIDUAL risks through mutation of the virus in any particular victim, there is no significant individual risk from mutations of the virus due to a mutagenic drug.
HOWEVER, that’s not my concern.
My concern is related to Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche’s concern about mass vaccination during a pandemic. He differentiates between the idea of a vaccine being good for an individual, and that vaccine being good public policy for humanity as a whole, ultimately including that individual.
Geert’s concern is that a virus AS A WHOLE – as a global population – as almost an ecosystem – will evolve due to pressure from a non-sterilizing vaccine, to create new strains that will resist the vaccine. Thus, while the vaccine may benefit an individual in the short term, it ultimately does NOT benefit the sum of all individuals, who will ALL suffer from the mutated virus, which would not have happened, absent the specific evolutionary pressure of the vaccine.
If Geert is right, it’s not just stupid to “vaccinate ourselves into trouble” – it’s downright EVIL.
We have already seen Geert’s prediction apparently (wait for it) fulfilled with the delta strain of SARS-CoV-2, which basically ignores vaccines against “wild type” Wuhan coronavirus.
But again, that is not STRICTLY my concern.
Then what IS my concern?
Original predictions, based on the mutation of the original Wuhan coronavirus, were that the virus was genetically contained – that it was not mutating into significantly different forms requiring changes in the vaccine. And yet, something seems to have CHANGED that. The early predictions could have been WRONG, but they could also have been UNDERMINED. And they could have been undermined by the same terrible logic of “we have to pass it to see what’s in it”, or “we have to try to MAKE the virus catch in human cells, to see if it CAN catch in human cells”.
You see what I mean? There could be “dishonest science” and other such “skulduggery” here, just like we have seen with LIARS like Fauci, Baric, Tedros, and China.
My concern is that in Geert Vanden Bossche’s scenario, which I have described as “coronavirus variant whack-a-mole”, it will only be made WORSE by drugs which encourage the mutation of the virus.
In other words, mass vaccination into a pandemic with “leaky” vaccines is bad, but to do so while chemically promoting the mutation of the virus is even worse.
Thus, not only is it CONTRADICTORY to vaccinate in such a scenario – it is EVEN MORE contradictory to promote mutation in such a scenario.
And – worse than THAT – it appears that we have ALREADY BEEN DOING IT – with remdesivir.
Remdesivir is notable as being an antiviral which is generally being given to patients, with no hope of it actually working, long after the SARS-CoV-2 virus has done its dirty work, and those patients are ACTUALLY dying of a cytokine storm. These patients may still be producing and shedding some virus, but the sum of all studies is rather definitive at this point – remdesivir does little except LENGTHEN the stay of patients in the hospital.
Well, what are those patients doing there, staying too long in the hospital?
One strong possibility is that these dying patients are creating mutants and variants. The following paper shows what happens to SARS-CoV-2 virus when confronted in vitro with remdesivir – and it is basically what I am predicting will happen with molnupiravir.
In vitro evolution of Remdesivir resistance reveals genome plasticity of SARS-CoV-2
Remdesivir (RDV) is used widely for COVID-19 patients despite varying results in recent clinical trials. Here, we show how serially passaging SARS-CoV-2 in vitro in the presence of RDV selected for drug-resistant viral populations. We determined that the E802D mutation in the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase was sufficient to confer decreased RDV sensitivity without affecting viral fitness. Analysis of more than 200,000 sequences of globally circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants show no evidence of widespread transmission of RDV-resistant mutants. Surprisingly, we also observed changes in the Spike (i.e., H69 E484, N501, H655) corresponding to mutations identified in emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants indicating that they can arise in vitro in the absence of immune selection. This study illustrates SARS-CoV-2 genome plasticity and offers new perspectives on surveillance of viral variants.
Now this is moderately straightforward, but the big picture is not apparent, because the authors know they are playing with dynamite, so I’m going to restate what they found in more direct language.
Bottom line up front, they basically found evidence that remdesivir does exactly what I’m thinking molnupiravir will do – which is to promote mutation per se, including into “variants of concern”, independently of drug resistance evolutionary considerations, which makes tons of sense.
A mutagenic drug (or rather a drug which works on the principle of mutagenesis) creates mutations with high frequency on a large scale, without the need for evolution to strongly amplify rare beneficial mutations. But at the same time we don’t see – in the wild – any evolution of resistance to remdesivir (RDV). The paper spells this out.
So let’s look at what the study found:
“in vitro with omnipresent RDV” – we see both appearance of variants of concern AND resistance to RDV
“in vivo with late-stage RDV” – we see appearance of variants of concern but NO resistance to RDV
[ The second is a bit of a joke – I’m talking about what we see in the wild globally – no RDV resistance. ]
How can this be rationalized?
In the in vitro case, resistance to RDV is a NECESSITY forced upon the virus. All mutations must persist under omnipresent high concentrations of RDV, so this is a pressure that cannot be worked around or escaped from. Yes, RDV benefits the virus by assisting mutation, despite doing it “too much”, which forces resistance to occur. And what IS the resistance? It is for the virus to continue propagating, both unhindered by RDV yet also assisted by RDV. So, essentially, SARS-CoV-2 and RDV negotiate to the point where the “benefits” of RDV to speed up mutation don’t diminish the viability of the virus. The virus learns to USE the ringer nucleoside M to mutate faster, without dying from it. Thus, we see evolution of traits that have benefited SARS-CoV-2 in the wild, plus evolution of a trait of adaptation to RDV.
In the in vivo case, in a Petri dish called “planet Earth”, resistance to RDV is NOT a necessity. The virus has plenty of hosts who are not using it, so it negotiates more strongly to a better deal. It takes all the mutations it can get from RDV, but it does NOT accept the need to mutate to adapt to RDV. THAT particular mutation is unnecessary for most of the virus, so it is not forced to cut that deal.
Bottom line question: Does RDV in the wild speed up mutation?
My answer: I would bet money on it. It appears to do so in the lab.
And if I’m right, enhancement of mutation should happen even more strongly for molnupiravir, which has a more clearly mutagenic mechanism of action than remdesivir.
The authors simply refer to the plasticity of the VIRUS, because woe unto them if they talked about a Big Pharma drug being a promoter of viral plasticity-COUGH-mutation. But that is exactly what the in vitro results mean here. They were able to generate the “variants of concern” in the lab, using exposure to remdesivir.
They went looking for mutations for resistance to remdesivir, and they not only found one of those – they found MORE mutations, including ones matching “variants of concern”.
WHY?
Well, let’s go back to the original point:
Why would we mass treat a virus with a drug which forces the virus to mutate, when mutation is how the virus creates new variants that reinfect the vaccinated?
In my opinion, it is REASONABLE to expect that any drug which operates as a “ringer” nucleoside – as BOTH remdesivir AND molnupiravir do – is going to cause SOME level of genetic errors – a.k.a. mutations – as a consequence. You can dress up pro and con arguments in fancy language, but scientific common sense points one to the likelihood that a fake nucleoside will operate to some extent, if not to its main extent, as BAD DATA in the tape of life. And THAT means MUTATIONS.
And if remdesivir was doing it, then molnupiravir should do it on STEROIDS.
And I am NOT going to let Fauci explain his way out of this one by any kind of hand-waving, or Shifty-Schiff experiments like Lancetgate.
So where does this go?
I was having a lot of trouble figuring out why the push for remdesivir made sense to a particular PART of the corrupt forces behind the Plandemic.
Remember – AND logic.
In any rally of a giant societal “conspiracy”, which can be as big as:
“Let’s all go to the New World for each of our own reasons! It’s OURS!”
“The Islamic world attacked our towers! Let’s DO SOMETHING!”
“The other people are INSURRECTIONISTS! Arrest them!”
“White supremacists! Take away their rights!”
“It’s airborne Ebola! Civil rights out the window! We’re all gonna die!”
…..there is always a REASON for every aspect and for every beneficiary, but they’re usually quite different reasons, specific to the individual or group, and thus profoundly motivating.
In other words, these are “conspiracies of fortune”, in which MOST buy in not in an illegal way, but in either an immoral, amoral, or self-deceiving way. Some truly guilty ones secretly initiate the money-grab, and everybody else goes along, making true justice impossible.
It’s a great scam. It happens for ALL of the reasons – not just any one of them.
Still, in that context, things tend to make sense, but generally after the fact.
The advancement of remdesivir just didn’t make SENSE. More than that, its whole terrible history was wrapped up with the liar Anthony Fauci.
But if you back up even further – a useful tactic when things don’t make sense – one comes to the realization that many things about antivirals just don’t make sense.
we have good safe ones that “they” seem to hate now, upon their “discovery”
those drugs were never promoted or studied properly, IMO
the excuses for not vigorously pursuing the class of drugs BEFORE, ring VERY hollow NOW
the main class of “allowed” antivirals (ringer nucleosides) seems fundamentally flawed
the fundamental flaw (that we are using genetic error as a “cure”) is never acknowledged
the fact that we have to cure diseases that never had to exist, like SARS-CoV-2, fails to outrage any of the people in charge, who pushed these Frankenstein gain-of-function experiments to begin with
there is a bizarre fixation of vaccines as the only allowed solution to viral disease
genetic vaccines are pushed, when antigen vaccines are obviously fundamentally safer
genetic antivirals are pushed, when other categories are obviously both safer AND more effective
The LAST points seem to show some commonality, both in leading toward the massive money pit of gene therapy, and in relating to Anthony Fauci.
And THAT is where things start to make sense. The POLITICAL aspects of this. The installation of World Government, their holy grail.
Fauci, Baric, Daszak, Rick Bright, and Hillary Clinton all know what is actually going on – I am convinced of that. They are all knowledgeable, more than others, in the true agenda and schedule of the “Plandemic”, including the POLITICAL GOALS. They understand both the SCAM and the NOBLE (lying) PURPOSE.
I am convinced that VARIANTS are a key construct in the giant grift of COVID. The whole plan has to keep going, by ginning up more COVID as needed, but it also has to look NATURAL, so that nobody finally decides to send about 100 cruise missiles into Wuhan and a spare 20 into various Swiss cities, which would end this entire Globonazi / Chinazi farce once and for all.
OK. Save some for North Carolina and Canada, too. It’s complicated.
They COULD make more variants and release them, but nobody wants to screw up and get caught, like they already have been caught, time and time again, to the point that the whole Globonazi plan might finally get run down like a rabid dog in the middle of the road.
The fact of the matter, however, is that even with DRASTIC homing in on Baric, Daszak and Wuhan from the left, with Fauci finally treed by BEAGLES, of all things, and the rest of us bearing down on them from the right and center, they keep pushing on. They are NOT going to stop.
Variants have now died down due to the mechanics of immunity, largely due to refusal of so many people to take the immunosuppressing phony vaccines. But THAT can be worked around. Don’t think that variants are gone. They’re TOO DAMNED USEFUL.
So how do you get MORE of them, without a ChiCom release operation, to convince all the CHUMPS in science, who will swear on their various manuals and codexes that it’s all real?
Just give a CURE that makes sure there are MORE variants.
Remdesivir doesn’t WORK well enough. It makes money, because ALL modern operations have to make their own money, but it doesn’t promote mutation fast enough. Nor is it administered during the viral maximum, when maximum mutation is possible.
Enter molnupiravir.
Move variants needed? Sure! And in time for their NEXT political operation, a.k.a. the 2022 election!
The way this scam of vaccines and drugs works is really smart.
The narrow vaccines NARROW humanity’s pool of immunity coverage of the spike protein, while decreasing overall immunity, both broad-based immunity to COVID and to other diseases. Meanwhile, the drugs WIDEN the shotgun pattern of the spike to find new variants that evade the vaccines.
This is such an incredibly slick grift, I almost have to applaud it. BRAVO! Satan himself has to be IMPRESSED. New diseases hidden in cures for old ones. And all of it helping to achieve the socialist goal of transforming mankind PER SE.
Before this is over, as they begin to move the increasingly narrow coverage genetically, even the original Wuhan strain will become a “variant of concern” for vaxxies! Ah, what a beautiful SCAM. The irony!
Note that this explains why HCQ and ivermectin cannot be used. They dead-end the scam. One has to have something that completes the “scam cycle” of increasing the problem while pretending to fix it.
This is their modus operandi. They find something that looks like solving a problem, that actually perpetuates the problem, or creates a new and similar one.
Just like “pursue gain of function to prevent gain of function” – which scam was revealed by Judy Mikovits.
If you find Democrats like Fauci anywhere NEAR one of these cyclic grifts, you know you’ve identified a scam correctly.
OK, to be honest I had Zero plans to write this post when I woke up “today”. In fact I’d been hoping to take advantage of my solo weekend to wrap up a post or two I’ve had in draft mode for months, but it appears that they’ll have to still wait. My hunters will be home soon…
This journey started out by reading Carl’s beautiful Sunday post.
Being very moved by the teaching he shared I wanted to look up the source material by John Piper AND finally came to a page that appears to contain much, or even all, that Carl shared, here:
In the course of searching for the actual message, & not just other people’s blog posts about Piper’s teaching that was apparently given at some type of conference, a few interesting links popped up. One looked to be addressing how seemingly Piper weighed in on the 2020 election & from the couple lines of text visible at the search may have spoken against Trump. I was curious so went to read that article too.
What a surprise to discover that the article was more about promoting the vax from the pulpit rather than steering people away from Trump during the stolen election. Hmmm
OK, so this post is NOT trying to attack John Piper as a man, a Christian, nor as a theologian. I’m trying to steer clear of my own biases, which is obviously impossible. In reading the search engine thumbnail descriptions it appears that Piper is affiliated with the Baptist church, which makes my “legalism radar” perk up. I’m just being honest, I have issues with legalism that go way back & have a (possibly misplaced) perception that Baptist takes might hover in the legalism domain…so grain of salt going forward here…
Here are a couple places where I’ve addressed legalism, & the other end of the spectrum, the prosperity gospel, for context on some of my thinking in these arenas…
So, back to the issue at hand. I like to think of myself as a Truth-seeker AND a Truth-teller. So let’s see if we can unearth some Truth in the controversy before us, namely shilling for the vax from the pulpit. Whom the Son sets free is Free indeed!
Let’s look into John Knox’s Not The Bee article a bit first. Per his opening remarks he appears to be a Conservative Christian, who is perhaps comfortable with MAGA & Trump’s leadership.
“I’m not here to slander John Piper. He’s a brother-in-Christ and a man who has, by all accounts, picked up his cross daily to preach the hope of Christ and Christ crucified to a broken world.
With that being said, Piper has come to some odd conclusions in recent years, starting most notably with the idea that voting for the worldly bravado of Donald Trump was just a [sic] morally wrong as the utter institutional corruption, unfettered support of abortion, and woke totalitarianism of Joe Biden.”
Let’s dive into Piper’s perspective without immediately referring to Knox’s take & see what might jump out…
Here is his opening & yikes he’s seeming like a Pro-vaxer from the outset, not just pro-freedom (in Christ).
“My aim in this article is to encourage Christians to be vaccinated, if they can do so with a good conscience and judicious medical warrant.
The people I have especially in view are those who are not vaccinated because of fear of being out of step withpeople they respect, and in step with people they don’t admire. My message to them is simple: You are free.
So, I am not talking directly to everybody. If the shoe fits, put it on, check your conscience, consult your doctor, and go get vaccinated. If it doesn’t, go tearfully and cheerfully on your way. Tearfully, because over 4.5 million people have died from COVID-19 worldwide (including over 700,000 Americans). And cheerfully, because Christ makes it miraculously possible to love people by being “sorrowful yet always rejoicing” (2 Corinthians 6:10).”
So I’m pretty close to an anti-vaxer for numerous reasons now. It would be nearly impossible to read consistently here at The Q Tree & not be Extremely Concerned about the many & manifold dangers of the so-called Covid vaccine. Obviously Piper is coming from a very different worldview, though we Might be somewhat similar in our Christian biblical foundational viewpoints. Some of what he said above strikes me as manipulative, which is a big red flag to me!
Below is a comment written before the Plannedemic was on the scene with some vaccine concerns I expressed elsewhere, for perspective, but we’ll just stick with the Covid “vax” concerns today:
So Piper cites a number of sources that all seem to show that being unvax’d is Way more dangerous than being vax’d. Obviously here at the Q-Tree we consider material much more wider afield & also take into account the numerous reports, medical, scientific, & anecdotal that expose Much of the danger of the clot shots. It appears that Piper is unaware of this alternative & alarming material. Here’s his take, shudder:
When people respond to this increasingly clear reality by pointing to untrustworthy and disreputable government and medical leaders, I respond, “That’s a non sequitur.” The team called “vaccination” just made a first down, even if monkeys are holding the chains. For friends around the world who don’t know American football, that means a win is a win even if all the coaches and referees are incompetent.
Piper’s take on freedom is interesting & I encourage you to read it for yourself. He then lists a series of considerations to ponder as one decides for the shot or not. He doesn’t elaborate on those issues, even the implications of fetal cell lines, though he does link to a YouTube video on the topic. I have no idea if Piper is a pro-lifer or not, but at least he brings up that fetal tissue issue, though by implication doesn’t apparently consider it an impediment to Christians taking the “vax”. He appears to have made up his mind to take the shot & seems to be freeing, or even persuading, his parishioners to do the same–concerning!
Now let’s consider Knox’s other cited material that is opposed to Piper’s take before returning to Knox.
James White, the author of the above, pulls no punches & calls Piper out for his writings AND remarks on the election & the shot! Here is White pointing out what many Q-Treepers might consider to be quite obvious.
God’s ownership of our bodies implies our own stewardship thereof, which is why many of us take serious issue with experimental genetic therapies with record-breaking reports of adverse reactions, including death, with no long-term studies relating to safety (cancers, fertility), for a disease with an average mortality age above life expectancy and a mortality rate of less than 0.5%.
Further from White, bold is my take:
…there is the arrogance of the secular worldview that actually leads man to believe he is wise enough, while remaining in rebellion against his Creator, to meddle with the very essence of his being (genetics). When such arrogance is joined with a lust for power and dominion, it becomes deadly.
So the bulk of the article, comprising numerous biblical citations about freedom, is not the issue. Instead, the problem is found in the section that reads like a Pfizer promotional advertisement, and then the application portion at the end.
White’s wisdom & Piper’s naivety are on display in this next quote from White (not italicised to preserve his presentation):
“From late October of 2020, as word about the technology that is behind the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines came out, I have stated that I would consider use of these vaccine [sic] once three and five year safety studies had been completed. Prior to 2020, this would have been considered a sober, even mundane position to take. You do not do genetic manipulation at “warp speed,” especially when the threat you are seeking to counteract is one that almost always requires multiple co-morbidities and results in an age of death equal to or above life expectancy. But we do not have such data, and with how this one particular disease has been handled, we have good grounds to wonder if we will ever have geniune [sic] data in the future. The VAERS database, maintained by the CDC, has catalogued record numbers of negative results from the vaccines, so it is now regularly dismissed as “untested” (the irony is palpable) by the media. The amazing reality that we are now counting deaths with the Covid-19 as the same as deaths from Covid-19 has resulted in massively inflated numbers, numbers Dr. Piper repeats without comment, and uses in his final argumentation as well. The fact is we are playing with dangerous and unknown long-term impacts with these types of experimental1 therapies. Dr. Piper does not even acknowledge this reality.”
Here is the material for the footnote #1 above & a reference to further work by White (an 8 page pdf). This appears to be a level of truth AND integrity to be much admired & emulated, yet too rarely seen!
1 Yes, they remain experimental. The FDA approved the Pfizer jab without public comment, fundamentally altering the entire process. Video exists of Anthony Fauci in 2019 (Milken Institute found on CSPAN2) lamenting how long it would take to get these kinds of vaccines approved. Given his own role in the Wuhan lab, gain-of-function funding, etc., the reality of the situation is clear.
“Many studies are now showing efficacy rates below 50% and dropping for these vaccines. But the UK report is even more dangerous. We are now seeing that the vaccines are inhibiting the natural ability to produce antibodies against not just the well-known “spike protein,” but against the shell of the virus as well. Our bodies provide not only a much more robust immunity (as all studies are showing, and which Dr. Piper misrepresented when he said natural immunity is “as effective as vaccination immunity” when it is actually 13 to 27 times greater), but it is a much wider immunity, responding to more of the structure of the virus. This study is telling us that vaccination degrades our natural immunity, leaving us even more exposed to future infection.”
And this treat from White on Piper!
“He then provides one of the most disappointing lines in the article: “You have pondered the likelihood and unlikelihood of conspiratorial conjectures.” Without defining his meaning, or providing examples, Piper does us no favors. Is the recognition of the cooperation of Big Tech and Big Pharma with the extreme leftists in political power resulting in the transfer of literally trillions of dollars of wealth a “conspiratorial conjecture”? Are the banishments from social media of medical experts who are warning about dangers fictional? We are not told.”
Winding down toward his conclusion White displays both insight AND wisdom:
“It is undeniable that the vaccines are not a solo issue. They are coming to us after mask mandates and church closures and pastoral imprisonments and before the next onerous demands from governments drunk on the power that inevitably comes from the rise of secularism. The secular state is far worse than the ancient pagan context of Rome (which was bad enough), for by its very definition it must be ultimate in all things as there is no Creator. Why Piper does not see the role the vaccines play in the overall demands of the newly empowered totalitarianism I cannot say, but it is not the first time he has missed the role a particular element plays in the whole. Mean, arrogant tweets are, in the overall scheme of things, significantly less important than the fact that the Biden regime is intent upon forcing your children to celebrate drag queens and likewise just as intent upon taking control of every aspect of your life to force you to live in denial of the lordship of Christ. What Piper has missed, badly, is the role these vaccinations play in a much bigger, much more basic movement into a technologically based, chemically and medically controlled secular totalitarianism.”
Obviously it is easier to resonate with White, at least for me. So let’s return to Knox. Piper is presented as
“…either unable or unwilling to see past the veneer of Everything is Fine™ that’s been peddled by the leftist politicians, the woke media, the “progressive” academy, and the neo-Marxist Big Tech offices.”
Knox reminds us to consider the source AND question conclusions drawn from faulty data & assumptions:
“As a math professor once told me, even if your calculations are 100% correct, your solution will be insanely wrong if your starting premises are off!”
Honestly I did enjoy reading all three pieces. Knox was my intro to the other two & his framing & take is invaluable. Piper was who I’d been searching for in appreciation of the Wonderful Teaching Carl shared with us today (now yesterday). Piper was shallow on facts but deeper on scripture in his writing compared to what the other two shared, but both Knox & White were addressing Piper’s factual fallacies more than his biblical prowess. Because I was reading Piper’s article as more of a vax skeptic, I found some of his scriptural insights to work on me in the opposite way than where he was going in his applications. White was factual, truthful, & masterfully insightful on both human nature & the creeping totalitarianism in our societies. I resonated with his take & hope to read further of how he also might “rightly divide the Word of Truth”!
I guess I would prefer to just hear from Piper on scripture, not social issues. Because White & Knox are seemingly aligned with my worldview they are more comfortable reads to me when addressing social &/or cultural concerns. Knox is an easier, quicker read, so he’s a good place to start. White dives in deep & dispenses truth, wisdom, & integrity quite liberally. Piper would do well to stick to biblical truth & could expand his sources of information so he has a better grasp of what is Really happening in the world today.
Now let’s turn to the reason for this post’s title, since many Shepherds (pastors & other leaders) are seemingly leading their flocks of Sheep to the metaphorical, if not literal, slaughter.
I’m going to share Ezekiel 34 in a moment, but this is how thinking along those lines developed, in the comments section on this excellent post by Wolfmoon:
There are markers in the vaccine, AND they are testing (using useless PCR) for infection, AND they are taking DNA.
All bases are covered. The sheep will see the “testing for viruses” part and be satisfied. The lions will see the markers and the DNA theft and walk majestically away.
They are flailing around trying anything they can think of to trick the lions into submission.
But I am a lion, and not subject to such gaslighting trickery.11 Reply
EXACTLY! That’s what I’m thinking. The small cheese was the vaccine in as many as possible. The BIG CHEESE was “everybody gives their DNA to the globonazis just to travel”. The really big cheese behind the scenes is “now we can modify and study every single person like a lab animal”. When we talked about being “controls”, they rubbed their hands in glee. “We can use that! We can surely use that!” The trick THERE is to foil that plan – to say “No, KlauSS. No DNA for you!”
One of the things they would surely be testing for would be immune function. Shedding. OMG. There is so much modification and study of us possible.
cleverly disguised as “peace and safety” for all !
and coming soon…
marker
sounds like mark.
but we’re not quite there just yet.
the UN’s Sustainablity crap + the 2030 Agenda + the WEF + the Vatican + the Covid/Climate Change tyranny…and the global compliance to all of that…is creating Alinsky style chaos.
they will need all the chaos they can manufacture…so that…
the machiavellian psychopath man of universal “peace” can show up, and quell all the chaos…
by then, ppl of the global village will have become rendered compliant enough so as to readily take the mark which will require, not just relinquishing our privacy, but something much worse : our souls.
to worship that man of lawlessness, perversion & lies.Last edited 7 days ago by smiley29 Reply
We would be stronger if the Church leaders around the globe including Pop would stand with God’s people. They are not for a second time in history the past 80 years. They failed God and humanity and will be judged more harshly for selling out God and Christ for a lousy bag of silver.4 Reply
The whole 34th chapter of Ezekiel is profoundly applicable Right Now!
Ezekiel 34 New International Version The Lord Will Be Israel’s Shepherd 34 The word of the Lord came to me: 2 “Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Woe to you shepherds of Israel who only take care of yourselves! Should not shepherds take care of the flock? 3 You eat the curds, clothe yourselves with the wool and slaughter the choice animals, but you do not take care of the flock. 4 You have not strengthened the weak or healed the sick or bound up the injured. You have not brought back the strays or searched for the lost. You have ruled them harshly and brutally. 5 So they were scattered because there was no shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild animals. 6 My sheep wandered over all the mountains and on every high hill. They were scattered over the whole earth, and no one searched or looked for them.
7 “‘Therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: 8 As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, because my flock lacks a shepherd and so has been plundered and has become food for all the wild animals, and because my shepherds did not search for my flock but cared for themselves rather than for my flock, 9 therefore, you shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: 10 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: I am against the shepherds and will hold them accountable for my flock. I will remove them from tending the flock so that the shepherds can no longer feed themselves. I will rescue my flock from their mouths, and it will no longer be food for them.
Let’s add the rest of Ezekiel 34 (that wasn’t included in my original comment above) for perspective:
11 “‘For this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I myself will search for my sheep and look after them. 12 As a shepherd looks after his scattered flock when he is with them, so will I look after my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness. 13 I will bring them out from the nations and gather them from the countries, and I will bring them into their own land. I will pasture them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines and in all the settlements in the land. 14 I will tend them in a good pasture, and the mountain heights of Israel will be their grazing land. There they will lie down in good grazing land, and there they will feed in a rich pasture on the mountains of Israel. 15 I myself will tend my sheep and have them lie down, declares the Sovereign Lord. 16 I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak, but the sleek and the strong I will destroy. I will shepherd the flock with justice.
17 “‘As for you, my flock, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: I will judge between one sheep and another, and between rams and goats. 18 Is it not enough for you to feed on the good pasture? Must you also trample the rest of your pasture with your feet? Is it not enough for you to drink clear water? Must you also muddy the rest with your feet? 19 Must my flock feed on what you have trampled and drink what you have muddied with your feet?
20 “‘Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says to them: See, I myself will judge between the fat sheep and the lean sheep. 21 Because you shove with flank and shoulder, butting all the weak sheep with your horns until you have driven them away, 22 I will save my flock, and they will no longer be plundered. I will judge between one sheep and another. 23 I will place over them one shepherd, my servant David, and he will tend them; he will tend them and be their shepherd. 24 I the Lord will be their God, and my servant David will be prince among them. I the Lord have spoken.
25 “‘I will make a covenant of peace with them and rid the land of savage beasts so that they may live in the wilderness and sleep in the forests in safety. 26 I will make them and the places surrounding my hill a blessing.[a] I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing. 27 The trees will yield their fruit and the ground will yield its crops; the people will be secure in their land. They will know that I am the Lord, when I break the bars of their yoke and rescue them from the hands of those who enslaved them. 28 They will no longer be plundered by the nations, nor will wild animals devour them. They will live in safety, and no one will make them afraid. 29 I will provide for them a land renowned for its crops, and they will no longer be victims of famine in the land or bear the scorn of the nations. 30 Then they will know that I, the Lord their God, am with them and that they, the Israelites, are my people, declares the Sovereign Lord. 31 You are my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, and I am your God, declares the Sovereign Lord.’”

I was going to expound on that passage but I think at this point it might be best for the Word of God to speak to your own heart as He wills…
Here is an example of a church that has gone overboard in the wrong direction, way beyond Piper’s vax persuasion. They wouldn’t allow the unvax’d to enter nor apparently work there, even those with medical or religious exemptions. I really hope the majority of the remaining flock got saline instead of the real clot shot!
Closer to home there have been disturbing trends. Our old home church seemed to go pretty overboard on Covid craziness. Earlier we visited to support a family member’s music ministry. At that time masks were strictly & personally enforced by deacons or elders, significantly impeding worship AND fellowship. They had Covid stations w/ hand sanitizer & masks positioned by entrances & strategically elsewhere in the building. Thankfully, over the summer the restrictions were relaxed as in people were encouraged to wear masks rather than “required”. At our daughter’s wedding there in August only a very small minority, like 2% of attendees, were pretty consistently masking.
My parents’ very large & prosperous church went through a season of only having online services. They spent exorbitant amounts of money to install various health measures including outfitting multiple gathering rooms w/ microbe killing lights, I believe. Since they also operate a Christian School they may have been proceeding with an abundance of caution. The online services were a blessing to my parents who may continue to do church that way when health or weather issues make attendance an hour away from home much more challenging. More churches having an online presence AND broadcasting services can be one of the seeming few positive changes since Covidiocy has mesmerized global sheep & tantalized totalitarians!
My husband has been very activie in music & leadership in a local church that might best be described as “seeker-friendly” & more youth oriented. This church is part of an extended church plant ministry in Michigan & most of the leadership are on the young side too. Michael, my husband, got one of our sons involved in music ministry there & our daughter-in-law was active in the children’s ministry. M & son got quite close to a Conservative Christian church employee who grew increasingly frustrated with various “woke” aspects of leadership that he was unable to sway whatsoever, even though he was on the church board. He finally moved out of state, largely to escape what was becoming toxic church culture.
Our son chose to leave because he couldn’t stand the mask mandates that were pretty heavy-handed for many months. Our daughter-in-law lost her motivation when they shut down all of the children’s ministry areas due to Covid lies. This church has had an extensive youth & children’s ministry & much outreach to the community. What had been a welcoming atmosphere, complete w/ complementary coffee & treats, turned into a desert of fear, in so many ways. Talk about serious mixed messaging…
My husband’s experiences with music there were becoming so frustrating compared to pre-covid freedoms. Significant enforced masking. No access to normal musician hang out rooms before or between services–much interpersonal ministry had occurred spontaneously in that environment previously. No longer were refreshments provided for the worship team (nor the church at large, for that matter). In fact they often had to wait in their cars when they weren’t on stage or in the service. Michael would hit a nearby drive-through & pick up cheap breakfast food to share with his team but it wasn’t even close to the same.
I attended service there at Easter & M had to RSVP so the church would have a head count & not get overcrowded. I’m not sure if they were attempting to limit numbers due to “social distancing” or what. Our son wasn’t able to make the RSVP cut so he stayed home on Easter, again. I refused to wear a mask & nobody called me on it, which was a relief. There were Many empty chairs so our son could likely have come too but the “restrictions” made the concept of joyfully coming into the House of the Lord pretty foreign–Tragic! Compared to the previous Easter, when virtually All Michigan churches were closed, this was an “improvement”. What a very twisted way to disrupt the celebration of Jesus’ Resurrection, the very lynchpin of the Church’s existence. Surely just accidental tyranny–NOT!
Although my husband Loves being a part of that music ministry AND has developed a number of quality relationships that have extended beyond just fellowship within the church walls, he has stated on numerous occasions that if that church ramps up the Covid crap again he is going to have to leave.
Churches bowing to government lies, tyranny, AND deception is transforming the natural areas of ministry that should be unfettered and subject to the leading of the Holy Spirit, Not the permission of The State! To see a pastor, like Piper, shilling for the death shots is beyond horrifying to me. Having ubiquitous masking & promoting fears & isolation & a lack of human contact (touch, hugging, holding hands to pray, shaking hands to greet others, laying hands on others in prayer &/or fellowship, facial expressions, etc.) are all destructive of the church & in effect are putting the Light of Christ under a metaphorical bushel.
Early in the Scamdemic when our dictator in the Governor’s mansion (Gretchen Half-Whitmer, to quote Trump) banned churches from being opened, or even people leaving their own households, we had a House Church service in our home. People from Four different households attended (family & pending family) and we were technically in violation of some illegitimate “mandate”. It was joyful, liberating, moving, godly, AND surreal. I wondered if we were, as a society, on the cusp of seeing the church driven underground, like in China or ancient Rome. Honestly our home church service was more meaningful & powerful with God’s presence than Any church building service I’d experienced in Many Years (my issues, not necessarily the church’s “fault”).
If driven underground The Church, The True Bride of Christ, will survive AND thrive…& suffer significantly…
In contrast to some of the above, other family members have been blessed to discover a vibrant & growing church about an hour away that did not bow the knee at Any level to the “pandemic” paralysis. Apparently this church has been on the front lines in fighting against illegitimate powers & even has some legal eagles in the congregation that have contributed significantly to clipping the Nazgul’s wings (Gretchen Whitmer). Standing up to tyranny may be One of the key factors why this church is growing so much right now.
I went to the church’s website to see if any of their Covid “activism” featured prominently, and it did not. Here is a link to an article from earlier in the scamdemic that quotes the pastor & gives context to his decision to keep their church open against manifest pressure from the system. It’s interesting given our hindsight view on much of what was happening then.
Another distant family member, on the other side of the state, has recounted how her small community church has fared during the Covid manufactured “crisis”. Her church stayed mostly open, didn’t mask, & didn’t do social distancing. Many people got sick AND now have natural immunity. Many congregants are well-versed in alternative healing approaches to Covid & have been helping to bring healing to their community whenever the illness kicks in. I’ve shared some of her approaches here before & hope to do so more fully in another post…eventually.
Alarmingly on Detroit area TV there are a number of pastors featured prominently in Michigan propaganda pieces trying to still convince the masses of the importance of taking the clot shot. Every time I see one I think of Margaret Sanger’s desire to keep the “uppity” “undesirables” from thinking for themselves & not getting abortions. Basically the de-population agenda is still finding “spiritual shills” to sell their snake oil!
OK I went looking at Michigan.gov to see if I could find an example commercial featuring a faith leader & found this document on fetal cells & the “vax”. At the bottom are links to various faith organizations statements on the topic. I would guess the state isn’t linking to anyone who objects to the “vax” but am not taking the time to check. All of the links say Catholic or Vatican except the Charlotte Lozier Institute.
It looks like in order to view one needs to download the file. The top one tries to convince pregnant women the shot is safe. The seventh video features one of the pastors lamenting people dying alone. From the second from the bottom on page 2, link below, there is a spot on “keeping the faith”.
Just even considering this material makes me feel like I need to take a shower. This is like the PR campaign to convince people to willingly enter the Nazi cattle cars & showers, bringing about their own destruction!
Here’s an example of the kind of pastoral leadership I would much rather see!
Here’s the larger scene preceding that one:
I’ve spoken/written numerous times about movie-quoting as a language in our family, including at my inaugural Q-Tree post immediately below. Comments are closed now, but well worth reading. If someone might care to comment there is a copy of that post on my main blog, Special Connections, also below.
Oh for a protective, patriotic pastor’s heart to arise in these dark days! Here is a possibility. I haven’t watched this video in full just share it for your consideration…It’s almost 2 hours & from earlier this month. Interestingly You Tube won’t allow that video to embed…hmm…just a glitch in the matrix surely!
Here is an appropriate warning from scripture for those who presume to teach others.
James 3:1 Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly
I went looking for some scriptures that might be applicable & encouraging in these dark days, here is truth!
2 Samuel 22 New International Version
David’s Song of Praise
22 David sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. 2 He said:
“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; 3 my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield[a] and the horn[b] of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior— from violent people you save me.
4 “I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and have been saved from my enemies. 5 The waves of death swirled about me; the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me. 6 The cords of the grave coiled around me; the snares of death confronted me.
7 “In my distress I called to the Lord; I called out to my God. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came to his ears. 8 The earth trembled and quaked, the foundations of the heavens[c] shook; they trembled because he was angry. 9 Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it. 10 He parted the heavens and came down; dark clouds were under his feet. 11 He mounted the cherubim and flew; he soared[d] on the wings of the wind. 12 He made darkness his canopy around him— the dark[e] rain clouds of the sky. 13 Out of the brightness of his presence bolts of lightning blazed forth. 14 The Lord thundered from heaven; the voice of the Most High resounded. 15 He shot his arrows and scattered the enemy, with great bolts of lightning he routed them. 16 The valleys of the sea were exposed and the foundations of the earth laid bare at the rebuke of the Lord, at the blast of breath from his nostrils.
17 “He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters. 18 He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me. 19 They confronted me in the day of my disaster, but the Lord was my support. 20 He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.
21 “The Lord has dealt with me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands he has rewarded me. 22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord; I am not guilty of turning from my God. 23 All his laws are before me; I have not turned away from his decrees. 24 I have been blameless before him and have kept myself from sin. 25 The Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness[f] in his sight.
26 “To the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless, 27 to the pure you show yourself pure, but to the devious you show yourself shrewd. 28 You save the humble, but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them low. 29 You, Lord, are my lamp; the Lord turns my darkness into light. 30 With your help I can advance against a troop[g]; with my God I can scale a wall.
31 “As for God, his way is perfect: The Lord’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him. 32 For who is God besides the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God? 33 It is God who arms me with strength[h] and keeps my way secure. 34 He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he causes me to stand on the heights. 35 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze. 36 You make your saving help my shield; your help has made[i] me great. 37 You provide a broad path for my feet, so that my ankles do not give way.
38 “I pursued my enemies and crushed them; I did not turn back till they were destroyed. 39 I crushed them completely, and they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet. 40 You armed me with strength for battle; you humbled my adversaries before me. 41 You made my enemies turn their backs in flight, and I destroyed my foes. 42 They cried for help, but there was no one to save them— to the Lord, but he did not answer. 43 I beat them as fine as the dust of the earth; I pounded and trampled them like mud in the streets.
44 “You have delivered me from the attacks of the peoples; you have preserved me as the head of nations. People I did not know now serve me, 45 foreigners cower before me; as soon as they hear of me, they obey me. 46 They all lose heart; they come trembling[j] from their strongholds.
47 “The Lord lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be my God, the Rock, my Savior! 48 He is the God who avenges me, who puts the nations under me, 49 who sets me free from my enemies. You exalted me above my foes; from a violent man you rescued me. 50 Therefore I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will sing the praises of your name.
51 “He gives his king great victories; he shows unfailing kindness to his anointed, to David and his descendants forever.”
8 “But if I were you, I would appeal to God; I would lay my cause before him. 9 He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. 10 He provides rain for the earth; he sends water on the countryside. 11 The lowly he sets on high, and those who mourn are lifted to safety. 12 He thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success. 13 He catches the wise in their craftiness, and the schemes of the wily are swept away. 14 Darkness comes upon them in the daytime; at noon they grope as in the night. 15 He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth; he saves them from the clutches of the powerful. 16 So the poor have hope, and injustice shuts its mouth.
17 “Blessed is the one whom God corrects; so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.[a] 18 For he wounds, but he also binds up; he injures, but his hands also heal. 19 From six calamities he will rescue you; in seven no harm will touch you. 20 In famine he will deliver you from death, and in battle from the stroke of the sword. 21 You will be protected from the lash of the tongue, and need not fear when destruction comes. 22 You will laugh at destruction and famine, and need not fear the wild animals. 23 For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you. 24 You will know that your tent is secure; you will take stock of your property and find nothing missing. 25 You will know that your children will be many, and your descendants like the grass of the earth. 26 You will come to the grave in full vigor, like sheaves gathered in season.
27 “We have examined this, and it is true. So hear it and apply it to yourself.”

As you can see from the numerous scriptures shared above God’s Word is full of hope for us all! Please dive in for yourself & see how God might speak directly to you in your hour of need from His Word!!!
Here is the passage I was originally searching for, Absolutely Applicable to pastors, leaders, AND to us all!
Proverbs 24:10-12 New International Version
Saying 25
10 If you falter in a time of trouble, how small is your strength! 11 Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter. 12 If you say, “But we knew nothing about this,” does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who guards your life know it? Will he not repay everyone according to what they have done?
God grant us the wisdom, grace, AND strength to speak the truth in love AND to rescue those who are “staggering toward slaughter”.
Well God Bless you AND thank you for reading along with these thoughts today. I hope you are encouraged, inspired, AND challenged to go forth boldly proclaiming grace And truth. In Jesus Love, Valerie
VC note on use of AND throughout. This is a bit of an inside joke at The Q-Tree as Wolfmoon is fond of using the term “AND logic”, as in many times things aren’t either or but more like both AND…

Please find more and better copies of this street-corner speech!!!
I will add them here.
Yeah, we know this stuff, but this is like the “check-mark red pill” that seals the deal and shows the URGENCY of turning this shit over. This old boy puts it all together in a way that simply cannot be denied.
We have to stop it COLD.
What I want people to do is to IDENTIFY all things we need to do RIGOROUSLY in order to save businesses and stop this process.
We have to begin IMMEDIATELY.
I want TWO classes of actions / inactions.
(1) What must WE as individuals do or not do.
(2) What must politicians do or not do.
The LATTER (and how it affects the FORMER) is how we will TEST the WHEAT from the CHAFF.
Better hope that TEAM TRUMP is paying attention. Because WE ARE.
….interest on any loan of fiat money (meaning money made out of nothing)…. [is a] dead short across the productive element of society. Money being taken from people who are working hard providing the material and the labor. They don’t even know that this is being taken from them and it’s in this huge river of wealth flowing into the banking cartel…. You are led to the question of where is this river flowing? Where’s it going? Get a picture of this that it’s all going into a lake somewhere and maybe there’s a dam and the wealth is building up and somewhere they’re getting it all. Getting it no, they’re spending it. They’re not accumulating it at all. What are they spending it for? The answer may surprise you. They’re not buying more yachts and mansions with this money, they’ve already got all of those they possibly want…. When a person has all the wealth that you could possibly want for the material pleasures of life, what is left? Power. They are using this river of wealth to acquire power over you and me and our children. They are spending it to acquire control over the power centers of society…
And they did so. In 1913, they passed the Federal Reserve Act and the 16th Amendment. The 16th was passed by Congress on July 2, 1909, and ratified February 3, 1913, the 16th amendment established Congress’s right to impose a Federal income tax. ”…the income tax amendment became part of the Constitution by a curious series of events culminating in a bit of political maneuvering that went awry.….”
After that, it didn’t take long for the Elite to jump into action. In 1915, they grabbed control of the leading newspapers. It was even reported in the Congressional Record two years later:
This classic 1911 cartoon by the internationally acclaimed Communist cartoonist Robert Minor needs to be resurrected and posted on the front pages of every regime Establishment newspaper, beginning with the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and the Washington Post… Sadly, the cartoon desperately needs to be updated for 2021 with the knelling, decrepit usurper Joe Biden surrounded by the leading honchos of Big Tech, Big Pharma, Wall Street banksters, and top CEOs of the Woke Fortune Five Hundred, eagerly lined up to French kiss the ass of Chinese Communist Party Chairman Xi Jinping.
When you look at it Communism, is nothing more than feudalism in a new dress and fresh lipstick.
Karl Marx does not even hide this.
“The bourgeoisie, wherever it has got the upper hand, has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, idyllic relations. It has pitilessly torn asunder the motley feudal ties that bound man to his ‘natural superiors,’ and has left remaining no other nexus between man and man than naked self-interest, callous ‘cash payment….” – The Communist Manifesto
I am pretty sure the City of London and US Federal Reserve are also tied to the Chinese Communist party but that Deep Dive is for another day.

I read the Obama ‘Health’ ‘Care’ bill (HCA) and here are some of the goodies I found:
Pg 30 Sec 123 of HC bill a Government committee (good luck with that!) will decide what treatments/benefits a person may receive.
Pg 42 of HC Bill The Health Choices Commissioner will choose your HC Benefits for you.
Pg 239 Line 14-24 HC Bill Government will reduce physician services for Medicaid. Seniors, low income, poor affected.
PG 50 Section 152 in HC bill HC will be provided to ALL non US citizens, illegal or otherwise.
Pg 170 Lines 1-3 HC Bill Any NONRESIDENT Alien is exempt from individual taxes. (Americans will pay.)
Pg 58 HC Bill Government will have real-time access to individual’s finances and a National ID Healthcard will be issued!
Pg 195 HC Bill -officers & employees of HC Admin (the GOVERNMENT) will have access to ALL Americans’ finances and personal records.
Pg 59 HC Bill lines 21-24 Government will have direct access to your bank accts for funds transfer.
However there was another goody buried in the bill that had NOTHING to do with healthcare and is now coming back in a different version… ON STEROIDS!
Section 9006 of the health care bill — just a few lines buried in the 2,409-page document — mandates that beginning in 2012 all companies will have to issue 1099 tax forms not just to contract workers but to any individual or corporation from which they buy more than $600 in goods or services in a tax year. The stealth change radically alters the nature of 1099s and means businesses will have to issue millions of new tax documents each year. Right now, the IRS Form 1099 is used to document income for individual workers other than wages and salaries… The bill makes two key changes to how 1099s are used. First, it expands their scope by using them to track payments not only for services but also for tangible goods. Plus, it requires that 1099s be issued not just to individuals, but also to corporations…. http://money.cnn.com/2010/05/05/smallbusiness/1099_health_care_tax_change/
(This section got repealed ASAP after Sam’s Club et al realized the amount of paperwork they were in for.)
However the interesting tidbit was this:
”…the IRS has stated that even for transactions covered by the law, they intend to exempt purchases made with credit cards….”
Can you say DRIVE PEOPLE TO DIGITAL CURRENCY???
CLEARING UP 1099 CONFUSION
The NEW 1099 Law – IRS Form 1099-MISC
This 1099 law (Section 9006 of the health care bill passed earlier this year) is scheduled to go into effect January, 2012. Under this law you will have to report ALL purchases of goods and services over $600 (including smaller purchases aggregated over the full year.) Yes, that includes your retail clients, your fellow dealers (no more corporate exemption), office supply stores, show travel providers (hotels & airlines), etc.
Small businesses and associations (including ICTA) have protested this provision so fervently that Congress – and even President Obama – have acknowledged that it is a problem. Potential fixes include repeal of Section 9006 (ICTA’s strongly preferred solution), raising the dollar amount threshold to $5,000, exempting businesses with fewer than 25 employees, and exempting transactions paid for via credit or debit cards. However, the administration is extremely sensitive to the word “repeal” as applied to any part of the health care bill.

April 2, 2021 – War Room Previews ‘Unholy Saturday of Transhumanism’ Special (7 min.)
Includes TWO 48 minute War Rooms ON TRANSHUMANISM PLUS AN ESSAY By JASON JONES & JOHN ZMIRAK AUTHORS OF ‘The Race to Save Our Century [a book that ] pointed to the causes of the genocides in that epoch in various forms of “Subhumanism.”
Transhumanism and the connecting of the serfs to computer Will-he Nil-he certainly would explain Graphene Oxide in the Clot Shot and the MASSIVE PUSH to get everyone vaccinated wether it kills you or not.
It also explains the Magnetic Shot Hoax used to discredit the addition of graphene to the shots.
…Since graphene oxide “is considered to be the world’s thinnest, strongest and most conductive material”, how would this function in the body? Could it transmit frequency into and out of our bodies? Well according to other studies, graphene oxide is a “high-efficient interconnector in radio-frequency range”, in other words, it “has high potential for transmitting signals at gigahertz ranges” … “0.5–40 GHz. Radio- frequency transmission”. This would include 4G, 5G, and other wifi and microwave frequencies. So now we have many more questions than answers….
Nobody would be calling ALL of the various full-length stabilized SARS-CoV-2 S1 subunit spike protein vaccines “the clot shot” if there weren’t some clear and obvious problems with the full-length stabilized SARS-CoV-2 S1 subunit spike proteinITSELF.
We already know that clotting dysfunction is key to COVID-19 pathogenicity. SO – it’s not exactly a surprise that the spike protein itself, and likewise the S1 subunit of that protein – a.k.a. THE BUSINESS END – are themselves pathogenic.
In the above example, the S1 subunit of the spike protein was basically 100% lethal to humanized mice when applied to their lungs.
And when they looked at the mice, the damage was basically the same as the damage from COVID-19.
Just sayin’.
So let me now TEST you, and see if you’re more of a scientist than Fauci’s protege Rochelle Alinsky – WHOOPS – I mean Rochelle Walensky – who heads the CDC for Fauci to maintain control of it.
If you give a SPIKE PROTEIN VACCINE to somebody, and they have symptoms of COVID-19 during the next few days, or even during the next two weeks, which scenario is more likely?
(A) – The person just happened to get real COVID-19, and THAT spike protein did BAD THINGS.
(B) – The spike protein you put inside the person did BAD THINGS.
Do you see how science works?
It’s a lot like common sense, only it’s applied to fancy stuff.
I want you to meet some great scientists here. These are people with very little scientific authority, but they simply practiced science, instead of repeating what authorities told them.
(1) – The CNA who would not accept “super-spreader” myths
This guy was one of the first people to administer the Pfizer vaccine to nursing home residents.
He was shocked that his nursing home residents would die shortly after being vaccinated – after having survived for months BEFORE the vaccine – in a way that was clearly related to their being vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine.
Nursing home management would NOT admit to the obvious connection – and created a mythical “super-spreader” to explain the deaths.
This man is a HERO.
The first 10 minutes of the video is this man working up the courage of conscience – to SPEAK THE TRUTH. If you just want to hear what he needed to say, you can jump to 10 minutes and you will hear the SCIENCE.
(2) – From Physician’s Assistant to VAERS Whistleblower
This lady, a hospital physician’s assistant, started out as a “COVID training true believer”, but she began observing what the shots were doing in her hospital. From there, she began encountering resistance to “doing the right thing”.
Now, in retrospect, you can see everybody in the system avoiding responsibility – not just for the problem, but for even reporting it.
A fantastic interview by Del Bigtree’s Highwire show.
This doctor discovered not only that “the jab” was leading to loss of wind (reduced effort tolerance) in too many of his patients – a whopping 62% of all his patients were showing signs of microscopic clotting – similar to COVID-19 – after vaccination.
Thus, you will see that we were READY when a good explanation of the clot shot arose.
II. The Explanation
I want to start by thanking barkerjim for posting a comment with a link that leads to a very recent paper (pre-peer-review, of course) that explains the clot shot. He found the link HERE on Denninger’s Market Ticker site.
“Here we report that the Spike protein from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) binds to the blood coagulation factor fibrinogen and induces structurally abnormal blood clots with heightened proinflammatory activity. SARS-CoV-2 Spike virions enhanced fibrin-mediated microglia activation and induced fibrinogen-dependent lung pathology. COVID-19 patients had fibrin autoantibodies that persisted long after acute infection.”
“The central structural component of blood clots, and a key regulator of inflammation in disease, is insoluble fibrin, which is derived from the blood coagulation factor fibrinogen and is deposited in tissues at sites of vascular damage (10, 11). Hypercoagulability in COVID-19 is associated with inflammation and the formation of fibrin clots resistant to degradation despite adequate anticoagulation (3-5). Extensive fibrin deposits are detected locally in inflamed lung and brain tissues from COVID-19 patients, sometimes without evidence of direct viral infection at autopsy (1, 8, 12-14). The high prevalence of thrombotic events with these unique hypercoagulability features suggests an as yet unknown mechanism of abnormal blood clot formation in COVID-19. We set out to determine how blood clots form in COVID-19 and to identify therapies to combat the deleterious effects of abnormal coagulation occurring in acute and convalescent stages of disease.”
“Since hypercoagulability in COVID-19 patients has features distinct from those of other inflammatory diseases, we hypothesized that SARS-CoV-2 directly affects the structural and functional properties of blood clots. Incubation of SARS-CoV-2 recombinant trimeric spike protein (Spike) with healthy donor plasma increased fibrin polymerization (Fig. 1A). Spike strikingly altered the fibrin clot structure resulting in thinner fibers with a rough appearance and increased clot density as shown by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) (Fig. 1B, fig. S1), identifying direct effects of SARS-CoV-2 Spike on fibrin clot architecture. Consistent with these structural changes, a solid-phase binding assay revealed binding of Spike to both fibrinogen and fibrin (Kd 5.3 μM and 0.4 μM, respectively) (Fig. 1C). Fibrinogen immunoprecipitated with full-length recombinant trimeric Spike, and studies with deletion mutants identified an interaction with the S2 domain of Spike (Fig. 1D, fig. S2).”
“Intravenous administration of Spike PVs in wild-type (WT) mice induced extensive fibrin deposition in the lung (Fig. 2A). (…) Fibrin deposition was associated with activated endothelium in the lung, and gene expression analysis revealed increased expression of endothelial and inflammatory markers in Spike PV-injected mice (…) consistent with findings of SARS-CoV-2 toxicity to endothelial cells (19). (…) Mice genetically-deficient in fibrinogen (Fgα–/– mice), which express all other blood proteins except fibrinogen and are protected from autoimmune and inflammatory conditions (11), did not exhibit lung pathology following Spike PV challenge (Fig. 2E, fig. S5).”
“Fibrinogen is causally linked to the activation of macrophages and microglia in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases in the brain and periphery (11, 21). Fibrin is a driver of microglia-induced cognitive dysfunction (22) and is associated with perivascular-activated microglia and macrophages in brains of COVID-19 patients even without signs of infection (12).”
“A surge of autoantibody production against diverse immune targets have been detected in COVID-19 patients (25). To determine whether COVID-19 patients develop autoantibodies against abnormal blood clots, we tested autoantibody responses to fibrin. (…) We tested longitudinally collected serum samples ranging from acute to convalescent disease stages from 54 COVID-19 asymptomatic, mild, and severe disease patients requiring admission to the intensive care units (table S3). Fibrin autoantibodies were abundant in all three groups of COVID-19 patients and persisted during the convalescent stage, but were scarce in healthy donor controls or in subjects with non-COVID respiratory illnesses (Fig. 4A, B).”
“In summary, we find that SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein enhances the formation of highly inflammatory clots that are neutralized by a fibrin-targeting monoclonal antibody. Our data shed new light on the enigmatic coagulopathy found in COVID-19 revealing a causal role for fibrinogen in thromboinflammation – even independent of active viral replication. The high incidence of clotting complications in COVID-19 has been attributed to systemic inflammation (3), vascular damage including abnormal levels of circulating coagulation proteins (1, 26), genetic susceptibility to tissue factor and complement genes (27), and prothrombotic autoantibodies (28). Our findings now show that coagulopathy is not merely a consequence of inflammation. Rather, the interaction of SARS-CoV-2 Spike with fibrinogen and fibrin results in abnormal blood clot formation that in turn drives inflammation.”
[ THIS HERE IS THE PART TO READ ]
Assuming the results are correct – and I can see little reason to doubt them though replication is always important – this really starts to put the puzzle pieces together. I’m frankly amazed that it took so long to figure this out.
In less-scientific language:
1. The spike protein binds directly to fibrinogen, the protein precursor of fibrin which forms blood clots.
2. This binding causes the fibrinogen to polymerize to form fibrin strands, thus forming clots.
3. Spike binding to fibrin in clots also changes the clot structure and renders it resistant to degradation.
4. Fibrin induces immune inflammation. This is usually adaptive because clotting occurs at sites of injury. It is dangerous when it occurs in response to diffuse and extensive spike-mediated micro-clotting. This helps to explain the runaway immune-mediated inflammatory response characteristic of severe Covid-19.
5. Spike *alone* (in the absence of an infectious virus) induces fibrin deposition and inflammation in the lungs of mice. However, mice lacking the gene for fibrinogen exhibited no pathology upon spike exposure, demonstrating that the fibrinogen-spike interaction is necessary and sufficient for spike-induced pathology.
6. Fibrin induces cognitive dysfunction via immune inflammation in the brain.
7. Many recovered Covid-19 patients have abundant autoantibodies against fibrin – independent of disease severity – while these autoantibodies are rare in unexposed people. This indicates both that spike-mediated fibrin formation is occurring in the course of actual human infection, and that autoreactive antibodies are formed which may play a role in chronic/long-haul symptoms or prolonged clotting problems.
8. A fibrin-targeting monoclonal antibody greatly reduced inflammation, suggesting a potential new route for disease treatment.
The paper never uses the word “vaccine” – a glaring and clearly intentional omission – but it should be obvious based on these findings that instructing the body to produce large amounts of spike protein on multiple occasions is a dangerous prospect, and it also explains those autopsy revelations of bodies full of clots.
One caveat: The coordinating author is working with a start-up company to develop treatments based on reducing fibrin-mediated inflammation, so there is clearly some commercial interest here that could be influencing objectivity. On the other hand, it is often the entrepreneurial think-outside-the-box types who end up making groundbreaking discoveries.
Mark L
[ BOOM!!! ]
This is AMAZING and powerful work.
Remember that scientific paper that we started this article with?
NOW we know exactly how that happens. See how the SCIENCE is all connecting together?
The commenter on Ecosophia makes TWO critical points.
POINT ONE is that vaccines are never mentioned. That is how this work will eventually be published. The Rochelle Alinsky CDC could STOP the paper as potentially causing “vaccine hesitancy” if the authors mentioned vaccines, but by throwing no stones, none bounce back.
The CDC will still likely DELAY this from being published for as long as they can. But by avoiding mention of vaccines, the paper cannot be scuttled on the grounds that it “might cause vaccine hesitancy”, which is the FALSE IMPERATIVE that the CDC socialists use to control science and force vaccines on us as a social sabotage. Instead, the READER can make the connections and understand the implications for vaccines.
Do you see why PREPUBLICATION COMMUNICATIONS (like this one) are now so important?
POINT TWO is that it’s JUST THE SPIKE PROTEIN – NOT THE VIRUS AS A WHOLE – that causes the problems. And it’s been PROVEN. And it’s been PROVEN that THIS is the mechanism of the problems induced by the spike protein.
The moniker of “CLOT SHOT” is literally proven to be correct.
This is a BOMBSHELL because it indicts the entire concept of full-length spike protein vaccines as fundamentally flawed. It indicts mRNA vaccines as even more flawed than antigen, because the amount of toxic spike protein is unregulated. (Notice that I’ve been saying this all along.) It doesn’t necessarily say that other types of vaccines (like RBD subunit antigen vaccines) are any safer than spike protein antigen vaccines, but they MIGHT BE.
Something even BETTER here, than just the fibrinogen mechanism, is the way that this EXPLAINS (point 4 above) what one nurse practitioner observed – that COVID strikes PRE-EXISTING INFLAMMATION. Both the WHY of some people having severe COVID and others not, and the LOCATION of those issues, is explained by fibrin’s ties to pre-existing inflammation. We now have a mechanism which we already know follows that rule, because that’s how fibrin works.
This also explains why antihistamines work to save people from severe COVID. Antihistamines are generally useful against severe inflammation by pathogenic substances which cause inflammatory reactions. It’s why they administer benadryl as a general emergency antiinflammatory for purposes like anaphylaxis prevention.
Everybody underestimates Spain. The last letter in “PIGS” is far less of an insult than an error. Years ago, when I was at a conference, and Japanese industrial spies were getting me drunk (it was a great red wine), I decided that I had to give them SOMETHING for their time and effort, if only …
And yet the CDC has WARNED people against taking antihistamines with the vaccine – when this work LITERALLY PROVES WHY THAT IS A GOOD STRATEGY – just as it is a good strategy to take antihistamines to protect against severe COVID.
Like I said, this study proves THAT we were right, and WHY we were right.
And why is CDC so WRONG – time and time again?
This is a breaker of logjams. The insistence on the use of a fundamentally flawed vaccine is CRIMINAL.
Mandates are bad enough, but over a vaccine, the very principle of which is scientifically proven as DANGEROUS?
If mandates continue, these people need to be in JAIL. If they RESIST, they need to be OVERTHROWN.
Mandating this fundamentally dangerous vaccine is so wrong on so many levels.
This is a EUGENIC VACCINE if there ever was one. It’s almost DESIGNED to finish off people who are not 100% healthy.
How can this be right? Seriously. How can this be right?
We can no longer tolerate these people who pretend not to know.
III. The Faucist-Lysenkoist CDC That Pretends Not To Understand
I start this section by thanking three people – Sundance, Aubergine, and Trumpismine – who helped me to see what is going on here.
SUNDANCE informed me of the “Mamet Principle” – that liberals pretend not to know things
AUBERGINE formulated her wonderful Razor – that it is dangerous to dismiss such pretense as mere stupidity, when it might be the product of malice or guile.
TRUMPISMINE turned me on to the Wikipedia definition of Lysenkoism, which contained enough detail that I was able to connect the goals of old Lysenkoism to the actions of the left today.
The so-called Mamet Principle is a paraphrase of a repeated point by David Mamet, which Sundance encapsulated as a principle. This has been discussed and exemplified many times, both here and on CTH.
In asking WHY liberals “pretend not to know things”, we now understand that Hanlon’s Razor is an EXCUSE – that it’s COVER – and that it’s NOT because they’re STUPID, but rather because they’re smart and evil.
The best and most concise description is a reworking of Hanlon’s Razor by our own Aubergine.
So what if we apply this to Saint Fauci of Antibodies?
Anthony Fauci has a literal MAGICIAN’S POWER to make people focus on the WRONG THING. His skills of EVASION are absolutely outstanding. I love to call it “antibody hypnosis”, because that is exactly what it seems like.
“YOU WILL LOOK AT THE ANTIBODIES. THE ANTIBODIES WILL SAVE YOU. LOOK ONLY AT THE ANTIBODIES. YOU ARE FEELING WARM. YOU ARE FEELING SAFE. YOU ARE HAPPY ABOUT THE ANTIBODIES. THE MORE ANTIBODIES YOU SEE, THE WARMER YOU FEEL – LIKE THE SUN ON YOUR FACE ON A BEACH.”
You even hear his voice when you read that – don’t you? That gravelly, reassuring voice.
It’s VERY intentional.
Focusing on ONE WRONG THING – or even ONE RIGHT THING – is a technique of misdirection, but it is one of the BEST ways of pretending not to know things.
“Let’s only talk about this.”
Rand Paul knows all about it. He has gone many rounds with the Fauci critter.
But it’s not just Fauci.
His protege in CDC, who gives Fauci effective control of medical science, is every bit as bad.
It even includes Rand Paul’s colleagues in Congress.
The man behind the launch of censorship. Is this guy even AMERICAN?
What a PUTZ.
ANYWAY, this is where I started to figure things out.
This WEIRD LOVE of the radical left for brutal, aggressive, stupid, uncaring science – where does it come from?
I did not expect the answer that I found, with the help of Trumpismine and Wikipedia.
It’s very helpful to read this, including this part:
Marxism–Leninism postulated “universal and immutable laws of history” (historical materialism and dialectical materialism), which assumed unavoidable large-scale change at the collective level of societies.[5]Collectivism was a key feature of Marxism; Darwin’s concept of a random mutation in an individual being able to propagate and transform subsequent generations was at odds with the ideology, and was perceived as having a strong liberal inclination.[6] Marxist–Leninist theorists presented Lysenkoism as a new branch of biology, arguing that “dialectic method shows that development is carried out in a dual form: evolutionary and revolutionary.” Darwin was attributed with discovering “only the evolutionary” path, while Michurin and Lysenko were presented as making a “great step forward” toward the discovery of a “revolutionary” path of biologic development.[7]
Most people brought up in mainstream, establishment, Western science use the term Lysenkoism without really understanding the political angle of it. We understand it merely as “politics being imposed on scientists in the Soviet Union, which set back Soviet biological science by decades.”
Yes, that’s true, but it’s not ALL of the truth. The more you know about it, the more it looks EXACTLY like “Woke Science”.
As an aside, clearly it makes sense WHY China (and to a lesser extent Russia) would want to promote Lysenkoism in the United States, as part of their own interests. “China First” and “Russia First” by socialist and ex-socialist means are unlikely to be pretty. “Fuck the other guy up so he can’t win” is a valid technique in a corrupt world.
But it goes deeper.
Lysenkoism is far less about being STUPID, than about being REVOLUTIONARY. That is a critical idea. That quality of being revolutionary makes mistakes, and when it does, it’s generally STUPID. But when it does NOT make mistakes, it’s generally EVIL.
Let me repeat what I said, earlier about Lysenkoism.
You know what? This is actually really interesting reading.
In a WEIRD WAY – Lysenko was “right”, in that he maniacally predicted EXACTLY what the communists are doing NOW with gene therapy. His assertion of a “genetic dialectic” – of the “evolutionary” in conflict with the “revolutionary” – is actually what we’re seeing RIGHT NOW with the “natural evolution” crowd (US) versus the commie-forced gene therapy crowd (THEM).
Marxist–Leninist theorists presented Lysenkoism as a new branch of biology, arguing that “dialectic method shows that development is carried out in a dual form: evolutionary and revolutionary.” Darwin was attributed with discovering “only the evolutionary” path, while Michurin and Lysenko were presented as making a “great step forward” toward the discovery of a “revolutionary” path of biologic development.[7]
It was just total hubris and pathological commie science – a lot like what we see from Fauci, Gates and Walensky – but it “anticipated” what WOULD come eventually through science – that someday WE would have the power to do the things – and make the mistakes – that we are making now.
So in many ways these people ARE the intellectual inheritors of Lysenkoism!!!
Lysenko’s mistake was claiming that things WERE what they merely COULD BE through greater understanding.
Imagine some person coming BEFORE Galileo and trying to FORCE heliocentrism in their country – killing, jailing, ousting, and attacking the geocentrists.
In a sense, that was Lysenko, who attacked natural evolution.
Natural processes are “evolution”.
Genetic modification is “revolution”.
The dude was a NUT, trying to assert that the NATURAL was both, when it’s almost all ONE. But if he would have simply said “We must become revolutionary in genetics, which is merely evolutionary now”, then he would have been like the Lenin of biology, and he would likely be admired today by all these crazy leftists and depoppers, instead of an old Soviet embarrassment.
But ALL OF THAT comes back and tells me that these people are the modern recapitulation of Lysenkoist THOUGHT, but using the GAINS of actual evolutionary understanding.
The nutbaggery we see NOW with the communist jab-maniacs, is just like Lysenko’s assertions, only MORE REAL because they have MORE TECH.
[END QUOTE]
Soviet science, and Lysenko in particular, were characterized by a kind of VIRTUE SIGNALING, and that is what we are seeing now on universities, only it tends to be about peripheral things, like race, diversity, gender – whatever is in leftist vogue.
But NOW, in our phony socialist “pandemic”, we are seeing the virtue signals rise to levels that affect the practice of science itself. It’s starting at GOALS, but very soon, it will get a bit like CLIMATE LYSENKOISM, where people CHANGE DATA, HIDE DATA, DROP EVIDENCE, and basically act like MAINSTREAM MEDIA JOURNALISTS, who are in a continuous state of covering things up by omission, distraction, and promotion of contradicting narratives.
That is NOT GOOD.
I think that we are now seeing with publications like the one featured in this article, is some PUSH-BACK by scientists who realize where things are headed – a VERY BAD place. They are GETTING THE TRUTH OUT.
We need to help promote awareness of science that CDC and the communist infiltration are going to hide.

On August 7, 1948, at the end of a week-long session organised by Lysenko and approved by Stalin,[14] the V.I. Lenin Academy of Agricultural Sciences announced that from that point on Lysenkoism would be taught as “the only correct theory.” Soviet scientists were forced to denounce any work that contradicted Lysenko.[19] Criticism of Lysenko was denounced as “bourgeois” or “fascist,” and analogous “non-bourgeois” theories also flourished in other fields such as linguistics and art in the Soviet academy at this time. Perhaps the only opponents of Lysenkoism during Stalin’s lifetime to escape liquidation were from the small community of Soviet nuclear physicists: as Tony Judt has observed, “It is significant that Stalin left his nuclear physicists alone and never presumed to second guess their calculations. Stalin may well have been mad but he was not stupid.”[20]
