Excellent . And gets even better as it goes along, if I may say so.

In discussion today, I asked a woman I met----does she research when buying a house?, does she research when buying a car?, does she research when going on holiday? She answered yes to all three. So I said, so you research these issues, but when something allegedly threatens the life of you and your family-you pass the responsibility to someone else.!! I too said the evidence was there from May 2020 for those that looked (if you needed evidence and didn't just feel intuitively it was wrong.

I will cross post your post once my one today has run its course. No holiday was worth it.

Much agreed.

Everyone was lied to, but not everyone was deceived.

It comes down to personal responsibility for me. There were so many red flags to this, right at the beginning, but so few were prepared to listen. I tried to warn friends, family, and was so often ridiculed, but it only made me dig deeper. Massively affected my mental health that I had to step back from it for a while. So many of the online truth tellers kept me sane, and I will always be thankful to them. But there has to be a reckoning, and each has to play their part.

Apart from a few isolated examples, a famous person here or there, I haven't seen any real acknowledgement that what's been done was even wrong, let alone heard an apology. In fact we've had "requests" for forgiveness or "anmesty" without being told what they think they deserve forgiveness for. So no, no forgiveness, no anmesty, first they should try to put right what's been done wrong and only then can we see where we can move forward. But we will never forget

Hi, My husband and I chose not to take the jab because he had a reaction to the swine flu ten years earlier. We we clued in. I have had many conversations with people who took the vaccine and I agree it was so much easier just to go with the flow and take it. We felt ostracised and othered by our choice and there was much angst in the conversations we had with people. I however feel you are a little tough on those who made this choice. With hindsight it all feels much clearer that it was then. We are retired so job security was not an issue for us, we were healthy and into alternative health,.... It was an unpleasant time as we were not welcome at some family gatherings, no options for holidays abroad, no longer welcome for a cuppa with neighbours. My heart does go out to the injured and bereaved, I don't think it was quite as easy to be clued in as you indicate. What I do so appreciate is the awakening to the manipulation and downright dishonesty of politicians, policy advisors, ....... There are so many more of us aware and not to taking anything at face value. I just wish the learning and longterm impact of on those harmed by the injections was not so profound and life changing.

People are still railing against those who speak out about harms or lack of efficacy. They want PROOF! Why don’t they cry out for proof of safety and efficacy instead? It’s all backwards... the onus is on the new product to prove it’s safe, not the user to prove it’s not.

I was pro vaccine at the start, before it was available. I thought it was going to be the best thing since sliced bread and I was ready to get in line to get it. I was convinced, I didn't need any more convincing. But then they kept talking, like a used car salesman that doesn't get that you are ready to hand over the money. And they weren't just dishonest, they were flat out lying.

The moment I became unconvinced was when fraudci said, "The immunity provided by vaccination is superior to the immunity provided by infection". In what world could that possibly be true because it wasn't this one. There has never been a vaccine that works better than natural immunity, NEVER. Some of them are highly effective, but not a one of them is better than natural immunity. What makes vaccines preferable to natural immunity isn't that they work better, it is that the virus they work to prevent has the very real possibility of killing you.

Smallpox had a 30% chance of killing you if you became infected so even a vaccine that gave protection to 90% of those who received it and had very low side effects was a no brainer and it allowed the virtual extinction of the virus. But that isn't the covid virus or the vaccine. It didn't kill 30%, it didn't even kill 0.3% so the idea of the vaccine giving better immunity than the virus was ridiculous.

Yet, there was the constant hard sell. To protect you, to protect grandma. Sounded a bit to much like the used car salesman saying the '74 Pinto was a great car and would protect grandma just fine as long as you didn't put her in the back seat and didn't drive in front of anyone.

"Becoming vaccinated was the easy choice, not the hard one. There was never any evidence it was the sensible choice and it could be argued - and this may seem harsh - that if you were determined to be part of the group, willfully and determinedly deaf to any counter-argument or even call for caution, absolutist in your own belief in your virtue and knowledge, irrationally frightened of death, unthinking, superficial and glib, fearful of other people’s opinion of you, filled with desire/fear to comply with the powerful for safety or favour, then becoming vaccinated was the only choice. But these are not exactly admirable qualities."

Simply outstanding! Logical. Flat. Factual. And should be damning for those who fell into the trap. (They won't get it, but I can hope!)

My wife and I were aware of the WEF agenda of depopulation long before the so-called pandemic. We knew of the pedophiles running the world, the Queens family's immoral acts though out the ages and other so-called royalty. We knew of the human trafficking of women and children and fact the governments knew about it and they know who is behind it as some of them are working with these criminals. We knew about the lie of so-called vaccines as I ended up with MS after having flu shots two years in a row fifteen or so years ago, she is deaf in one ear and we believe it was from the flu shots and a H1N1 shot. So we did not need any convincing that the experemental gene jab was dangerous especially because of the time frame in which it was developed and the fact that they had to use a emergency narrative to force it on the people. We tried to warn our family's to no avail. We have lost two family members to the jabs so far, know two men who got strokes after the second Moderna shot and are permanently crippled, one niece ended up with seizures so bad they put her into induced coma and now is recovering, she is not fully back to normal. While in hospital I met a man fully jabbed who nearly died even though he was fully jabbed. Because their is so much corruption in most if not all governments through out the world how can anyone trust any thing they say. There are so many people who seem blind even when the government policies do more harm than good through out most of their terms or do nothing other than enrich themselves and to steal tax money for the government to play with by incompetent politicians, they still trust them. I met my wife twenty years ago and woke her up to the fact of corruption in government, the medical system, how doctors today are big pharma drug pushers and the food industry is controlled by big tech and the afore mentioned industries. Because she is the type not to just take anyone's word for something she began to investigate the situation of world corruption and found things out I did not know such as how evil people used babies' from the time of the Egyptian Rulers when they were told the blood of children will heal you, and what they did with them after they were done with them and they still do this today, made me sick. She went down the rabbit hole and is now fully awake. Still with what we know we could not get many to see the truth and now are praying we don't lose our children to the evil in control as they fell for the fear or were forced by their employers to get the experimental gene jab, they could not believe anyone could be that evil. My son told me he would never buy into that idea. So-called vaccines are the reason his daughter is autistic. We pray there will be full exposure soon and the people responsible for this insanity are put behind bars or executed if the state they are in still have the death sentence. Also people must stop calling the experemental gene therapy a vaccine call it what it is, I have been trying to get those I know to understand that fact. It never was a vaccine and in the near future the truth about so-called vaccines will be exposed as well. This is nothing more than a way evil, murdering, greedy people with no human feeling or decency came up with to make mountains of money. The truth must be exposed.

After Murderna killed my mom, I was terrified of my husband getting jab’d. He finally caved in to pressure at his job, against my wishes. I would have preferred that he quit and I told him so. I struggle with the belief that he did in fact have the right to make his own choice, but his choice did have a direct negative impact on me. We haven’t been the same since. I am an unjab’d outcast in a big blue city, dealing with that on my own now. I am disappointed that he did something he really didn’t want to do. I’ve lost respect for him, and I feel alone. I don’t know how to fix it. I have no confidence that things will go better NEXT TIME. I am terrified of next time.

Thank you, thank you! Especially for this: "People can rightly claim, ‘I was lied to’, but even from the very beginning there was enough information available and obvious aspects of personal experience for people to question what they were being told."

This is what drove me crazy right from the beginning--the lunatic willingness to ignore all the blindingly obvious evidence that faced everyone, every day. It's as if they considered the hysterical nonsense on the TV as reality and the real world, not to mention simple reason and logic, pure illusion and fiction. Even when forced to admit that they knew no one who even got seriously ill, much less died, from this magical "virus", they still considered denying the science showing the uselessness of masks, accepting the unscientific idiocy of distancing, and the willingness to have injected into themselves a barely tested, experimental substance, with unknown ingredients that promised to turn them into a factory to produce a possibly endless supply of what was understood to be the most toxic part of the so-called "virus" a hill worth dying on (quite literally in the case of my brother).

I never realized before 2020 how utterly enraging stubborn stupidity and willful blindness could be.

Honestly, what did we expect? These are scenarios and lessons from the schoolyard. The bully gets away with it, but when the bully falls, none of the toadies or enablers admit complicity or responsibility. They are the way they are because they wanted to be on the winning side. If their chosen side is no longer the winning side, they will not align with the loser, but instead with the winner. The most honest will admit that they were afraid of the consequences of going up against the bully. But the rest? Toadying and turning a blind eye, going along to get along... that's their NATURE.

Very well written!!! I agree so much with your sentiment. It's not about victim blaming, but looking deeper into what motivates our choices and behavior.

My husband and I knew something was "off" from the early days of COVID. As our hospital closed to anything elective and clinics shut down, we were both sitting at home, out of work, while no rush of patients materialized. We lost almost half of our income in 2020 due to state policies that were never justified. (And I consider us lucky! So many lost EVERYTHING. The financial harm is yet another tragedy from this.) Our children suffered greatly from state and county policies, even though pediatric hospitalizations remained exceedingly low.

By the time the vaccine rolled out, any faith we had in "the system" was gone. As a pediatrician who had believed in all the letter agencies, (CDC, FDA, NIH, etc.), I now found myself skeptical of every guideline.

It didn't take long to see very worrisome adverse effects of the vaccines. I checked VAERS every night. I was alarmed that NO ONE was discussing what I was reading. My colleagues all wrote it off as "no evidence of causation."

Choosing not to get vaxxed cost me my practice and so many relationships--personal and professional. My husband and I were hit with tremendous vitriol, and some hurtful statements, ("you deserve to die if you get Covid"), can never be forgotten.

The irony, of course, is that I'm starting to get the quiet acknowledgments that perhaps we were right. The path forward isn't easy. Sometimes I just want to forgive and pretend it didn't happen. Other days, I'm so angry, and vow to fight tyranny with everything I have. I suspect the right approach is a little of both? Forgive people, not the government? Fight institutions, while aligning with like-minded people in your personal life. Always pursue truth, wherever that leads.

I'll never forget the anger I encountered in 2021 from those who did follow health advice and got jabbed upon learning I wasn't jabbed. I asked them all one simple question that shut them right up. "Do you have any idea what these genetic "vaccines" do to your immune system?" (Cue bewildered looks.)

By mid 2021 we knew that the vaccines were negatively impacting the innate immune systems as we saw rising breakthrough cases of vaccinated getting covid. It could only mean one thing - that first line immune defenders like NK (natural killer) and M1 macrophages that kill unknown pathogens were being disabled. We also knew based on IgG antibodies in the vaccine (in muscle tissue and blood post jab) did little to stop viral infections in the airways which is accomplished by IgA antibodies in mucusal membranes produced by your immune system.

We have recently learned since that the more times you get jabbed, the higher the IgG4/IgG1 ratio which is not good and increases the chances of getting cancer and a host of other diseases.

Here is just one paper on the subject...

"This paper reveals that not only is there a link between tumor progression and the presence of IgG4 due to class switching, but that this link might even be necessary for tumor promotion and progression."

I found out early on that the vaccines are deadly. This only by cruising the internet and the information was there.
