BAD APPLES
A lot of people have been sharing the Chris Rock meme about bad apples on social media. I shared it, too a few days ago, but nuthin quite like seein’ and hearin’ him say it, thx, Marshall and Elon:
#JusticeForFloyd
Whether suspicions are justified that George Floyd’s murder could somehow have been an intentional hit to incite racial divides, or he was plainly murdered by yet another abusive officer with emotional IQ issues, surrounded by others of similar description, the sickness that could create this reality seems about as equally rotten and blood-boiling. The undeniable remains that this was a clear act of police brutality, bullying abuse to the point of murder, accomplices to which were the other cops involved who saw Floyd pleading for his life as well as the bystanders urging conscience and did nothing.
The chronic issues experienced in western medicine are in unsettling ways like #metoo: mothers and countless individuals experiencing short and long term chronic issues, often not believed or understood, many who express dissent to the mainstream narrative or even more any who fight for aide as a result of clear cause and result pharma injury are put down, mocked, shamed (like in the old days ‘called a heretic’ essentially, much like the Salem Witch Trials, where independent thought could result in hanging or burning at the stake). The 3rd largest cause of death in this country is the treatment.
Johns Hopkins Study: Medical Error 3rd Leading Cause of Death
CNBC Article re John Hopkins Study
Flies don’t land on me because I’ve had my DDT
As a kid I had a massive exposure to DDT as one of my favorite places to play in the house I lived in from ages 4 to 8 was the Apple orchard right across the street which was sprayed frequently with what must’ve been ddt. It going into 3rd grade I missed so much school I thought I might die. At 1 point I had hives covering my body and my eyes swelled so much they were almost closed. We had to go to multiple doctors around Buffalo where we lived and then finally to Canada where someone was able to tell us that it was the pesticides to blame. we’re allowing unrigorous unscientific dollar backed propaganda to destroy our ecosystem and many people’s lives, damaging all of our and our future generations’ health in obvious and still unknown ways. we must stop this biff “science”!
Dr. Rashid A. Buttar RE VACCINES, AUTISM, DDT & TOXIC, BAD SCIENCE
SICKO
Sickness is something we’re all too familiar with, particularly after months of sheltering-in-place to flatten the curve, wearing masks, and being blasted with how much we should be very afraid. When we look to experts outside of the mainstream media, however, the narratives often don’t line up, and the outliers ends up being the more rigorous sources, like in the case of this coronavirus fiasco that is full of pseudoscience and leaps in important protocol.
Everyone’s losing their minds
It’s hard to know what to believe sometimes, of course. Chronic disease is rampant, the narrative is constantly divisive and fear-mongering, and people aren’t always sure what the ingredients are to an optimal immune system.
What is the mainstream missing?
The knee bone’s connected to the…shin bone haha you know that one….
Holistic medicine believes everything is a tightly-interconnected web.
Searching for the underlying causes of disease is preferable to treating symptoms alone… Optimal health is much more than the absence of sickness. It is the conscious pursuit of the highest qualities of the physical, environmental, mental, emotional, spiritual, and social aspects of the human experience.

So can we trace the roots of our problems? Maybe we start close.
I think so. I hypothesize that the roots of chronic abuse of minorities and children is, at its roots, created by the same rampant chronic historical oppression, manipulation and abuse that have plagued most of recorded human history. Our American society, initially founded to escape oppression, can’t actually do that until it heals the neurotic hypocrisy it was founded on, that freedom could possibly exist righteously for one group while abusing another; that’s a delusional lie. Puritans and many of our ancestors were murderous imperialists and while I feel it’s important to focus on progress, evolution and learning, it’s also important to recognize the tragic flaws and take serious actions to stop their vicious repetition.
The Puritan idea of Americans as the second Chosen People of God has played an important and lasting role in the views of Americans about their own country and the views of those abroad about the way in which the United States has employed the idea of the City on the Hill. These issues should generate much discussion about patriotism, American wars and imperialism.
http://nationalhumanitiescenter.org/tserve/eighteen/ekeyinfo/legacy.htm
The Puritans were seeking freedom, but they didn’t understand the idea of toleration. They came to America to find religious freedom — but only for themselves. They had little tolerance or even respect for the Pequot Indians, who lived in nearby Connecticut and Rhode Island. They called them heathens. As more and more Puritan settlers moved into their land, the Pequots got angry and resisted. In 1637 war broke out, and the Puritans, helped by Mohican and Narraganset Indian allies, massacred 600 Pequots in their fort, burning many alive.

So, are we creating this mess with our old, outdated, limiting systems such as beliefs++?
Belief systems have long been feeding inequality, injustice, intolerance, violence and hatred, generally products of our own neuroses or perhaps by some combination of conscious effort vs ceding choice to leaders whose genuine interest is often highly questionable with track records to prove it. The planetary destruction seems to clearly reflect that there is massive room for improvement in aligning our systems with our and our ecosystem’s highest interests. Perhaps it’s the nature of systems, like our software shows us, which gets buggy if not updated often. We are still digging in the ground, clearing forests, disrupting entire ecosystems for archaic dirty technologies with billion-dollar metaphorical octopus mafia tentacles that actively resist taking updates essential to progress. The history of ethics is quite eye-opening and disturbing.

As a wise friend recently paraphrased Joseph Heller, “just because I’m paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get me”.
Can we just try consistently having rigor, ethics, logic and emotional IQ running the show for a while and see how it goes?
One of the most disturbing aspects for me about the last few months SARS-COV2 pandemic besides illness, death, suffering, and shutdown-related hardship and destruction, George Floyd’s and other murderous instances of police brutality and other injustice, has been the clear moral bankruptcy in our systems and the fact that people seem to shun and try to silence each other over questioning and pointing out the clear inconsistencies and mounting instanced of “biff science and justice”. All too often rigor, ethics, logic and emotional IQ seem to come last place, causing clear epidemic-level, chronic damage that viciously feeds itself as vicious cycles do.
Are we being lied to???
Over and over our institutions and the individuals asking to run them (who say they are passionate about and capable of serving the whole) exhibit viciously-repeating cycles of extremely harmful misjudgment, continuing to consult supposed experts who often make really shocking and serious mistakes at top levels leading to the seemingly only logical conclusions that priority is being given to profiteering, abuse and worse and therefore we’re being lied to. Campaign and other promises of prosperity too often turn out to be empty lies and instead lead to chronic illness, debt and unnecessary wars. Watch a recent Adam McKay movie, ie the ‘Big Short’ or ‘Dick’.
Ticking clock
As a country and as a species we are currently stuck in gravely destructive patterns which we have rapidly decreasing time to address effectively. For many years scientists have been telling us it is a ticking clock situation and we only have so much time to move full force onto a sustainable path from our current devastatingly destructive, polluting path! “11,000 scientists warn of ‘untold suffering’.”
Please tell me we can be more scientifically rigorous than THAT
The Coronavirus shutdown procedure has been so shockingly unscientific, that many, like Italian Parliament deputy Sara Cunial are now becoming convinced that, “healthcare”- aka “big pharma” is essentially functioning like mafia — a racket.
“Hobbes reminds us that absolute power isn’t granted by divine right but by people’s choice to give up their freedom to another… With his vaccines, gates managed to sterilize millions of women in Africa. Gates caused a polio epidemic that paralyzed 500000 children in India and still to day with DTP, gates causes more deaths than the disease itself. And does the same with his sterilizing GMO’s designed by monsanto ‘generously donated’ to needy populations. All the while he is already thinking about Distributing the quantum tattoo for vaccination recognition and the MRNA vaccines as tools for reprogramming our immune system. In addition, gates also does business with several multi nationals that on 5G facilities in the USA. On this table there is the entire deep state ‘in Italian sauce’.

Amazing Polly breaks down the Global Public Health Protection Racket theory:
The mainstream media (MSM), Center for Disease Control CDC, and World Health Organization (WHO) with others fed a fear-based campaign of sensationalist, clickbait Covid19 pandemic danger hysteria, not fully researched, understood or reviewed, resulting in a draconic and devastating lockdown motivated not by rigorous science, but overnight on a whim, with clear, serious jumps in key protocol:
Kochs Postulates were not met.
Explanation of Koch’s Postulates:
https://www.virology.ws/2010/01/22/kochs-postulates-in-the-21st-century/
2. The Imperial College Paper with massively wrong infection fatality rate projections, authored by Neil Ferguson, that overnight had not been published or peer reviewed and yet changed UK’s approach to that of containment.
The Imperial College paper was not peer reviewed. The simulation and programming that it relies on has not yet been published in the public domain. Given that its recommendations were at variance with the then prevailing policy in the UK, a very low bar seems to have been set by the international scientific community on its wide acceptance. In retrospect, emergency situations like this pandemic should require a far higher — and not lower — level of scrutiny since policy responses on the basis of such papers can have huge financial and health impacts. Further, while it is not a shortcoming of the paper per se, an issue has emerged regarding the democratic political process. Apart from our political party, no party in India or elsewhere seems to have asked serious questions about this or other models. This suggests a need for democracies to strengthen their critical thinking capacity by creating an independent “Black Hat” institution whose purpose would be to question any technical (mathematical) foundations of government decisions.

4. Bill Gates has a stronghold over Universities, in order to shape the publics opinion in regards to Covid19. “We have had major success this week forcing the government into U-Turn on mandatory vaccinations. We are proving that by signing up and joining GoVote we are standing together as one voice. We are the change.”
It’s known coronavirus vaccines have been attempted to no avail for years, are problematic and may never happen. BUT RUSH NOW because yay…science?
After a highly unscientific IC paper motivated a global shutdown, races are launched toward developing a vaccine for a coronavirus as if scientists don’t already know this has been worked on for many years without success and in fact only creating worse issues.
https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/04/will-there-be-a-coronavirus-vaccine-maybe-not.html
The FDA has never approved a vaccine for humans that is effective against any member of the coronavirus family, which includes SARS, MERS, and several that cause the common cold.
Even if researchers do develop a COVID-19 vaccine that’s effective at protecting animals, that doesn’t necessarily mean it will do the same for people. “One of the things that they say in science is that ‘mice lie, and monkeys don’t tell the truth,’” Roper says. “You can get something that works in mice, you can get something that works in monkeys, and it still might not work in humans.” So any animal tests will have to be followed by trials to demonstrate that the vaccines are safe for people to use, followed by trials to see if they protect against infection.
In a worse-case scenario, a phenomenon called “immune enhancement” can cause vaccines to make the symptoms of infections worse. Instead of preventing the virus from entering healthy cells, the antibodies actually help them to do so. In 2016, after some 800,000 Filipino schoolchildren were given a dengue-fever vaccine called Dengvaxia, officials realized that some of them had been put at increased risk of life-threatening complications. Investigators wound up looking into the deaths of some 600 children who’d taken part.
Just checking in: are we sure this isn’t a movie?
Aforementioned Imperial College received $79M from the Gates Foundation in March and paper author Neil Ferguson refuses to show the code he used to arrive at his conclusion referenced in above #3, and then resigns after breaking quarantine for an extra marital affair .
All while independent studies by many scientists, detailed a bit further below, have voiced serious, rigorously-scientific concerns against the shutdown.
Gain Of Function Studies: Is Big Pharma Playing God with Frankenstein Historically Unsafe Experiments???
NIAID, under Fauci gave a $3.7 Million grant to a Wuhan lab for a bat coronavirus study in 2014, from the dates listed as March on the studies, looks like prior to the same-year subsequent moratorium on gain-of-function studies.
Here is the study, which has notably been edited as recently as this month and has studies in the margin that seems relevant to Judy Mikovits’ concerns, particularly with the mouse viruses.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4797993/#__ffn_sectitle
The grant, first awarded in fiscal year 2014 and most recently renewed last year, went to EcoHealth Alliance, which describes itself as “a global environmental health nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting wildlife and public health from the emergence of disease.” The aims of the funded project included characterizing coronaviruses present in bat populations in southern China and conducting surveillance to detect spillover events of such viruses to people. The project has resulted in 20 publications, most recently a March report on zoonotic risk factors in rural southern China.
BANNED/3 YR MORATORIUM
Gain-of-function studies were banned/paused/put on moratorium for 3 years Oct 17, 2014:
In the wake of a handful of biosafety lapses at federal research facilities, the US government [NIH] is temporarily halting funding for new studies aiming to give novel functions to influenza, SARS, and MERS viruses…now, the government is specifically reviewing such experiments, and in the meantime is pausing funding for gain-of-function research projects ‘that may be reasonably anticipated to confer attributes to influenza, MERS, or SARS viruses such that the virus would have enhanced pathogenicity and/or transmissibility in mammals via the respiratory route.

THEEEEEY’RE BAAAACK
January 8, 2018 — Last month, the U.S. government lifted a three-year moratorium on funding risky research to genetically alter deadly viruses in ways that could make them even more lethal. Epidemiologist Marc Lipsitch of Harvard Chan School thinks the move could create an accidental pandemic.
Those who support such research think that it is necessary to develop strategies to fight rapidly evolving pathogens that pose a threat to public health, such as the flu virus, the viruses causing Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), or Ebola. For instance, some of this so-called “gain-of-function” research — which aims to make germs more contagious, more deadly, or both — has aimed to create viruses that can easily pass between ferrets, so that researchers can understand how those changes occur and potentially how viruses go from infecting animals in the wild to transmitting between humans.
But others, like myself, worry that human error could lead to the accidental release of a virus that has been enhanced in the lab so that it is more deadly or more contagious than it already is. There have already been accidents involving pathogens. For example, in 2014, dozens of workers at a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lab were accidentally exposed to anthrax that was improperly handled. Another accident like that — if it involved a virus that was both newly created and highly contagious — has the potential to jeopardize millions of people.

FORT DIETRICH ANOUNCES CLOSURE FOR UNSAFE PRACTICES
The Maryland Fort Dietrich lab was closed in August 2019.
The suspended research involves certain toxins, along with germs called select agents, which the government has determined have “the potential to pose a severe threat to public, animal or plant health or to animal or plant products.” There are 67 select agents and toxins; examples include the organisms that cause Ebola, smallpox, anthrax and plague, and the poison ricin. And this Fort Dietrich lab has since already been reopened. “The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has restored a military laboratory on Fort Detrick to full capacity, approximately eight months after shutting down research in its top laboratories.

MANY SCIENTIFIC VOICES DISSENT THE MAINSTREAM NARRATIVE
JourneymanPictures Youtube Channel is one big source of dissenting medical experts of the #shelterinplace mandates.
Stanford University Dr John P.A. Ioannidis has presented extensive research, follow ups and confirmation throughout the last few months, extensively concluding that, it’s good to keep in mind what the creator of the PCR Test warned about the uses and shortcomings. Concludes,
People <65 years old have very small risks of COVID-19 death even in pandemic epicenters and deaths for people <65 years without underlying predisposing conditions are remarkably uncommon. Strategies focusing specifically on protecting high-risk elderly individuals should be considered in managing the pandemic.

The infection fatality rate for this new coronavirus is likely to be in the same ballpark as seasonal influenza…
JK: Is there even an epidemiological way to count the devastation that has been wrought by the lockdown?
DI: I think that the devastation can be extreme, and it can be far worse than anything that coronavirus can do. I have to qualify that statement with the fact that we have never seen that before…
We know that suicides go up by 1% for each 1% increase in unemployment, and as you know, as of now, we are talking about 25 million people filing for unemployment in this country, and probably almost 10 times that many around the world, becoming unemployed. And the number is rapidly increasing as we speak. We know that there’s huge problems with other problems of common diseases, like cancer and heart attacks. They can go up, or actually, the trajectories of decrease that we have seen for many of these conditions are reversed, and they’re not decreasing at the same slope, or actually even increase in situations of meltdown. Less people will die because of car accidents, but is that really a benefit to be proud of? And then there’s other problems. There’s all that meltdown of mental health. There’s child abuse. There’s domestic violence. We already see hints that these problems are escalating. Violence in general — we see that gun sales are escalating, and I do really worry about people who are locked down and desperate and losing their jobs and just feeling completely lost in a world that they cannot understand how it is evolving and why…
Nosocomial infection is infection that happens in the hospital. It’s
probably one mechanism that has contributed to the substantial number of deaths with coronavirus, with COVID-19, that we have seen in some epicenters of the pandemic, like some cities in Italy, some cities in Spain, and several locations in the US, prominently New York City and the New York metropolitan area. If you think that COVID-19 has pretty much the same infection fatality rate as, let’s say, seasonal influenza, one immediately would argue, “Well, do we really see this type of disaster as we have seen in these particular cities with seasonal influenza?” And the answer is that, even with seasonal influenza, we do see, occasionally, some excess in specific locations. It’s not that all locations are evenly hit. We do see hospitals crash occasionally, especially hospitals that tend to run close to full capacity, and have high numbers of susceptible populations like elderly, like in the case of Italy, or disadvantaged populations, like in the case of Queens, or other locations in New York City….Coronavirus is not influenza. It’s a different virus, it has a different propensity to spread, but it also has the ability to infect elderly and debilitated people, frail people, people who have underlying diseases, and the best location for the virus to find its victims is the hospitals, both acute care and chronic care facilities, and nursing homes. And this is really where we get massive infections and a very large number of deaths that goes beyond what we have seen in the large majority of locations around the world…A major concern about healthcare providers is that the early data that we had suggested that SARS-CoV-2 has a very high infection fatality rate. You remember the early quote by the WHO of 3.4% of people who get infected will die. You remember the estimates that were built in the early mathematical models by Imperial College, suggesting that 1% or .9% of people who get infected will die. And also, very high rates of hospitalization, even among those who do not die. You can imagine what that means to our heroes who are fighting on the front line in hospitals, physicians, nurses, and staff, thinking that if they get infected, they have 1 out of 30 chances of dying. Based on what we see now, it seems that the infection fatality is much, much lower…both PCR and even more antibody tests need to be very carefully validated. We need to check them against samples that we know for sure that correspond to people who have been infected, and we need to test them, also, very carefully, against samples that we know for sure that they do not have SARS-CoV-2. For example, they are samples that were collected 2 or 3 years ago, and therefore, SARS-CoV-2 would not have been around at that time. This is pretty much what we did in our study….
https://www.thepressandthepublic.com/post/perspectives-on-the-pandemic-iv
Dr Knutt Wittkowski
With all respiratory diseases, the only thing that stops the disease is herd immunity. About 80% of the people need to have had contact with the virus, and the majority of them won’t even have recognized that they were infected, or they had very, very mild symptoms, especially if they are children. So, it’s very important to keep the schools open and kids mingling to spread the virus to get herd immunity as fast as possible, and then the elderly people, who should be separated, and the nursing homes should be closed during that time, can come back and meet their children and grandchildren after about 4 weeks when the virus has been exterminated…. we will see more death because of this social distancing….cost the US taxpayer $2 trillion, in addition to everything else that it costs, but it also has severe consequences for our social life, and depression… We should be resisting, and we should, at least, hold our politicians responsible. We should have a discussion with our politicians…

Dr David L Katz
We routinely differentiate between two kinds of military action: the inevitable carnage and collateral damage of diffuse hostilities, and the precision of a “surgical strike,” methodically targeted to the sources of our particular peril. The latter, when executed well, minimizes resources and unintended consequences alike.
As we battle the coronavirus pandemic, and heads of state declare that we are “at war” with this contagion, the same dichotomy applies. This can be open war, with all the fallout that portends, or it could be something more surgical. The United States and much of the world so far have gone in for the former. I write now with a sense of urgency to make sure we consider the surgical approach, while there is still time… What we know so far about the coronavirus makes it a unique case for the potential application of a “herd immunity” approach, a strategy viewed as a desirable side effect in the Netherlands, and briefly considered in the United Kingdom.
The data from South Korea, where tracking the coronavirus has been by far the best to date, indicate that as much as 99 percent of active cases in the general population are “mild” and do not require specific medical treatment. The small percentage of cases that do require such services are highly concentrated among those age 60 and older…

The big issue is people suffering. I have patients texting me bout, you know, anxiety medications, “I’m out of work, we don’t have any money.” The collateral damage of the COVID is causing increasing pain in our Kern County area. So, that’s really what we want to speak about, is the collateral damage. Because in Kern County, the collateral damage appears more significant than the damage being caused by the actual disease of COVID, which is a viral illness, causing similar to a flu-type outbreak in Kern County….So, you initially shelter in place, you social distance, you get PPE going, and then you watch how the disease develops. And we’re, of course, comparing it to seasonal flu and we’re seeing is it a lot different: how is the death rate? It seems to have spread more rapidly; it has a little bit more of a respiratory component to it. And then, at this point, we’ve — so we released that press conference, and now, we are consulting with epidemiologists, specifically in Sweden, and Dr. Wittkowski, and Dr. Anders, and Dr. Giesecke. We are talking to the epidemiologists, who have spent 35 years of their life to understand this process, and we’re saying, “What is the best approach to take?” Sweden has taken a different approach than we have: Sweden has said kids under 16, “You can go to school;” people can come out of their house; the restaurants are doing some social distancing; and when they asked Dr. Anders Tegnell, “Would you do anything different, now that you’ve watched the disease process for a few weeks?” he said, “Not really…The only thing he would chose to change was, he wanted to protect the elderly, and they would have done a little more in that sector. Everything else he said, “Our infection rate, our hospitals, our death rate, are tracking similar to societies like the United States, that have done a lockdown.

Sam Huesseini
On February 11th, the CDC had a news conference, or the Press Club had a news conference, with a CDC official and I try to go to these things and try to ask, as best I can, a tough question. Sort of the question that’s the elephant in the room that no one wants to talk about. And I asked about the lab in Wuhan.
FOOTAGE AT PRESS CLUB:
SAM HUSSEINI: Sam Husseini from Consortium News. Obviously, the main concern is how to stop the virus and death and so on, but I think that we should look into the origins of this. Is it the CDC’s contention that there’s absolutely no relation to the BSL4 lab in Wuhan? The temp? It’s my understanding this is the only place in China with a BSL4 lab. BSL4, that’s the highest-level lab with the deadliest pathogens and allegedly the most stringent safety requirements. We in the United States have, I think, two dozen or so, and there have been problems and incidents. Some of them have been shut down out of concerns of leakage of potential pathogens and it’s an ethical struggle in the United States of how to [conduct] gain function research, that is, research that actually attempts to make pathogens more lethal. And China is a very opaque society with a totalitarian regime. We have no idea — or, I don’t know, you tell me — Do you have any idea what kind of research could potentially be done? I’m not contending that this was intentional in any way. I’m just asking, is it a complete coincidence that this outbreak happened in the one city in China with a BSL4 lab? And shouldn’t we be having at least some of the discussion about the ethics of some of the research that happens here?…“Being of ‘natural origin’ doesn’t necessarily preclude that it didn’t come from a lab. That is, they could have collected it in nature, the caves, the bat caves that people point to, are over a thousand miles away from Wuhan… Gain-of-function research is something of a technical euphemism. It means that you are trying to make it more deadly. So, you take a virus, for example, that is deadly but isn’t airborne, and you make it so that it becomes airborne. So, you have increased its functionality, you have increased its deadliness, and this is presumably a scientific accomplishment. The person who wrote the US implementing legislation for the Biological Weapons Convention, Francis Boyle, calls this “criminal,” a “criminal enterprise.” It’s similarly derided by an imminent scientist, Richard Ebright, at Rutgers University…they’ve, as we’ve seen, totally failed in their ostensible purpose. [Fauci’s NIAID] granted the exemption for the funding, but the actual money was through USAID, which is basically the State Department as well as a group called Eco Health Alliance. And this work was that kind of work, gain-of-function work, so they worked with viruses, with the labs in Wuhan, with US universities, in order to make deadly pathogens potentially more deadly…They’ve succeeded in creating more deadly pathogens, but they haven’t succeeded in protecting us….they go to these bat caves, collect pathogens, collect deadly things, and then take them to study them, and then they tinker with them. Again, this is ostensibly to prevent a pandemic, but if the labs themselves become transmission sites through which they enter the human population, then they become an accelerant, they become the source of the problem.

I will additionally include many other similar expert opinions I’ve been sharing over the months voicing concerns about the shutdown being unscientific and counterproductive, on top of the collateral damage likely being worse.
Q: So what do the shutdown issues have to with the protests again?
A: Everything, many people are on their last straw
After having been locked up, many of them, for months, most of whom are fed up with some aspect of it be it restless, stressed financially, doing the research and feeling tyrannically imposed upon by draconic unscientific measures…there are all sorts of viewpoints…the current protesters seem to have ignited “a tinderbox” as Michelle Goldberg of the NY Times called it a few days ago…
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/29/opinion/george-floyd-protests-minneapolis.html
I’d say multiple, serious, extremely legitimate issues expressed by protestors of various potential main viewpoints I’d hypothesize as:
So fed up of still the same patterns of abuse and denial after millennia of protests come to frustratingly unsatisfactory change
Don’t care/don’t care very much about injustice but are there mainly to opportunistically profit in some way knowing they’re more likely to get away with it, (again, could include some individuals who could have been really hurt by shutdown or were already struggling and desperate for cash etc, and possibly, as speculations fly, some theories suspect certain numbers of individuals have come in from out-of-town somehow hired by someone to instigate violence, but this is so far purely hypothesis as far as I know)
People who are furious overall at capitalism and will take any chance they get to burn it down to make a point, Floyd injustice being the exacerbator and prior looting giving permission.
Malnourished
Many people are understandably confused and traumatized, regularly fed low-nutrient ‘dead food.
Alive food grows in the dirt, or on trees, or at one time ate grass and walked on legs or swam in water. Dead foods on the other hand, “is a series of synthetically derived ingredients that are mixed together into something that tastes okay, has a long shelf life and actually does more harm than good to our health… Over the past few decades, these dead foods have become the staple of many American’s diets. “As such, we have seen an incredible rise in modern diseases like diabetes, obesity, autoimmune diseases, infertility, cancer, and more (Raupp),

Animal products are raised in highly questionable ways:
On today’s American farms, 99 percent of which are considered “factory farms,” animals are crammed by the thousands into filthy, windowless sheds and stuffed into wire cages, metal crates, and other torturous devices. These animals will never raise their families, root around in the soil, build nests, or do anything that is natural and important to them. Most won’t even feel the warmth of the sun on their backs or breathe fresh air until the day they’re loaded onto trucks headed for slaughterhouses.
The factory farming industry strives to maximize output while minimizing costs — always at the animals’ expense. The giant corporations that run most factory farms have found that they can make more money by squeezing as many animals as possible into tiny spaces, even though many of the animals die from disease or infection.

Eating animals products also associated with disease:
Research studies have found potential links between the intake of animal products and risks of the following diseases and conditions:
Allergic, autoimmune, and inflammatory disorders
Cancer
Cataracts
Cellulite
Dementia
Diabetes: Type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, and gestational diabetes
Life-threatening reactions to E. coli toxins
Gallstones
Recurrent gout attacks
Neurological diseases
Prepuberty
Prostatic hyperplasia
Rheumatoid arthritis
Declining sperm counts
Reducing animal product consumption while also increasing whole plant food intake has many potential benefits, based on research studies, including:
Helps treat acne
Slows the aging process
Slows body cell death rates
Increases the chances for breast cancer survival
Increases antioxidant intake
Slows the growth of certain cancers
Increases the intake of fiber
Helps improve mood
Avoids inflammation caused by endotoxemia
Helps lower LDL cholesterol levels
Helps manage mental health conditions
Slows the shrinking of muscle mass as a person ages
Decreases oxidative stress
Increases the intake of phytate, an anticarcinogen
Slows the progression of rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, and heart disease
Boosts levels of serotonin
Helps with weight control
There are a number of unhealthy substances (naturally occurring, added, or accumulated from feed and the environment) contained in some animal products, including:

It further demonstrates that using Glyphosate could increase the risk of fires, erosion, and herbicide-resistant super weeds.
Fluoride-Poisoned Water
Although the U.S. Centers for Disease Control hails water fluoridation as one of the “top ten public health achievements of the twentieth century,” most of the western world
, including the vast majority of western Europe, does not fluoridate its water supply. At present, 97% of the western European population drinks non-fluoridated water…. Despite foregoing “one of the top ten public health achievements of the twentieth century,” tooth decay rateshave declined in Europe as precipitously over the past 50 years as they have in the United States. This raises serious questions about the CDC’s assertion that the decline of tooth decay in the United States since the 1950s is largely attributable to the advent of water fluoridation.

Vaccines have been linked to many serious and more minor chronic illnesses such as allergies
…injected with vaccines that have for many people caused serious issues and chronic illness and allergies, etc. RFK Jr and many others have studied, tracked and fought against the injurious flawed science firewalled by corruption for years. A recent talk I shared sums up how there is a lot of hidden damage we aren’t noticing happening as a result of unsafe vaccines, and the medical industry denies, fights and suppresses the injuries, so many people have no idea of the real danger. Chronic illness is rampant unexplained conditions. They don’t manage to connect the dots with the long-term injuries and diet choices to chronic immune issues.

Refined Sugar & Candida Overgrowth
Well neither do the top experts very often. Studies suggest taxing SODA rather than addressing the root issue: refined cane sugar. How unscientific. Obviously, the root problem is not the carbonation, but the sugar. Sugar is, in fact, in unbelievably exorbitant quantities in so many middle aisles foods, it’s really hard to avoid an excess and especially hard to completely avoid. Very little cereal exists without cane sugar. Refined cane sugar is, in my experience a huge root cause of chronic illness. I haven’t had a symptom of any kind since I stopped eating refined sugar 2 years ago and did a cleanse to regulate likely very excess candida levels that are said to overgrow easily in high sugar and artificial substances environments, even can easily overfeed causing a sort of parasitic condition, some say maybe an undiscovered, healable root of a lot of serious issues like cancer and auto-immune disease.

Suicide, PTSD, Nutritional Deficiencies
Suicide is already and epidemic and rates have skyrocketed since the shutdown, ptsd is rampant from many causes including childhood trauma, so many are deficient in vitamins and minerals (ie iron, iodine, D, b12, calcium, A, magnesium) and loaded down with toxins:
In the last 50 years, we have seen a dramatic increase in chemical production in the United States,” Woodruff explains. Concurrently, there’s been an increase in the incidence of conditions like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism, childhood cancers, diabetes and obesity. “It’s not just genetic drift,” [PhD, MPH Senior EPA Scientist Tracey] Woodruff maintains.”

80% of serotonin production is in the gut
The human gut is an amazing piece of work. Often referred to as the “second brain,” it is the only organ to boast its own independent nervous system, an intricate network of 100 million neurons embedded in the gut wall. So sophisticated is this neural network that the gut continues to function even when the primary neural conduit between it and the brain, the vagus nerve, is severed… Gut bacteria also produce hundreds of neurochemicals that the brain uses to regulate basic physiological processes as well as mental processes such as learning, memory and mood. For example, gut bacteria manufacture about 95 percent of the body’s supply of serotonin, which influences both mood and GI activity.
When you consider the gut’s multifaceted ability to communicate with the brain, along with its crucial role in defending the body against the perils of the outside world, “it’s almost unthinkable that the gut is not playing a critical role in mind states,” says gastroenterologist Emeran Mayer, MD, director of the Center for Neurobiology of Stress at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Indeed, a flurry of studies in the past several years indicates that the gut microbiome’s importance goes beyond physical health: It is also a key player in the gut-brain connection. In one striking demonstration of the potency of the so-called “microbiome-gut-brain axis,” published in Gastroenterology in 2011, Bercik and colleagues gave BALB/c mice, a strain of mice that are typically timid and shy, a cocktail of antibiotics, dramatically changing the composition of their gut bacteria.
“Their behavior completely changed,” Bercik says. “They became bold and adventurous.”

PHARMA
… many pharma side effects, of which one in particular, Ritalin,
This amphetamine-like substance causes the same types of effects on the body as other forms of speed — loss of appetite, insomnia, increased heart rate. The abuse of this drug in larger doses, especially through injection or snorting, puts an even greater strain on the body. The stress on the heart can be fatal.
Take the case of a teenager — a long-term user of Ritalin — who collapsed one day while skateboarding. Dead of a heart attack.

HEAVY METALS
…and studies show,
While our bodies need small amounts of some heavy metals — such as zinc, copper, chromium, iron, and manganese — toxic amounts are harmful. If your body’s soft tissues accumulate too much of heavy metals, the resulting poisoning can cause serious damage. Lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium are the metals most commonly associated with heavy metal poisoning in the United States.
Heavy metal poisoning can be caused by:
· Industrial exposure
· Air or water pollution
· Foods
· Medicines
· Improperly coated food containers, plates, and cookware
· Ingestion of lead-based paints

VETERAN SUICIDES
Veterans have myriad devastating issues including high ptsd and even more deeply alarming suicide rates.
And we are subject to constant slant in the media

How do we continue to look to the same sources as authority after they show clear abuse and dishonor? With a fragmented conscience maybe, delving ever-deeper into a dysfunctional, angry, toxic, hurt, traumatized, oppressed, repressed, stuck, hopeless joker monster society. What we should do is investigate, demote, move on, evolve, progress, strive always for our best greatness, highest rigor.
I thought that Todd Phillips’ and Warner Bros’ Joker was a really haunting portrayal of what our dysfuctional systems are producing at their worst: monsters.
DEEP CONCERNS FOR THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY
As evidenced in the rampant censorship, trolling, mockery and shaming of dissent from unauthorized non-expert or ‘not authorized to be consulted’ (according to CDC/Facebook/Youtube/Vimeo/Google/MSM/deeply offended fellow humans anywhere) seen a lot during the shutdown, our society seems to be valuing researching and independent critical thought a lot less these days.
TERRENCE MCKENNA
You can stand back and look at this planet and see that we have the money, the power, the medical understanding, the scientific know-how, the love and the community to produce a kind of human paradise. But we are led by the least among us — the least intelligent, the least noble, the least visionary. We are led by the least among us and we do not fight back against the dehumanizing values that are handed down as control icons.
http://young-perspective.net/are-we-led-by-the-least-among-us/
… it was Ludwig von Bertalanffy who said in his book General Systems Theory: “People are not machines, but in every opportunity where they are allowed to behave like machines, they will so behave.” In other words, we tend to fall into the well of habit. Though the glory of our humanness is our spontaneous creativity, we too as creatures of physics and chemistry, of memory and hope, tend to fall into repetitious patterns. These repetitious patterns are the death of creativity. They diminish our humanness. They diminish our individuality, and make each of us somehow like cogs in some larger system.
… Marshall McLuhan said: “We navigate our way into the future like someone driving who uses only the rearview mirror to tell them where they’re going.” It’s not a very successful strategy for navigating into the future.
… continuing to run Western civilization on the operating system inherited from print produces various form of political and cultural schizophrenia which, allowed to to run unchecked, would become fatal, would create cascades of chaos and political destabilization that would become uncontrollable.

There is a more and more-understood possible better way, perhaps a hybrid of sorts…
Based on years now of personal holistic experience compared with other personal experience with several adverse reactions to vaccines and other pharma, Thomas Cowan’s explanations of Koch’s Postulates I cited above and more, I’m inclined to hypothesize that Pasteur’s attempt to recant germ theory on his death bed was really enlightened, and perhaps we’ve been denying Terrain Theory or some potential combination of both to our own demise. “Louis Pasteur Recants His Germ Theory on his deathbed and sides with Claude Bernard’s Terrain Theory, which was inspired by AntoineBéchamp’s microzymian theory.
I’D REALLY LIKE TO GIVE MIKOVITS’ THEORY A FAIR HEARING:
Judy Mikovits’ perspective shared partly in Mikki Willis’ Elevate Films’ “Plandemic”, is elaborated to on Londond Real 5/8:
Half hour edit I boiled down of her May 8th London Real video….
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10223684213398181&id=1377667731
…and followed up with retorts to attacks on their documentary on 5/20:
Her understandings seems in line with Dr Thomas Cowan’s supported exosome theory (sourced above in reference to Koch’s Postulates) and supports the possibility there could be multiple factors at play including material used in flu vaccines which she and JFK Jr and others retain have not been tested adequately and may be hurting immunity, and possibly directing causing Coronaviruses and other outbreaks, possibly with the help of other environmental toxins such as the newer 5G frequency, supporting possible exosome theory involvement. I’ve truly discounted all concerns about emF until a couple of weeks ago a childhood friend called and said one of the businesses he started is dedicated to shielding people’s spaces from EMF, ‘Clear EMF’ in Buffalo, NY. Evidently the military has known and used EMF.
Paraphrasing Judy:
‘Covid-19 presentations coincide with the declared Covid19 presentations:
Mitochondrial dysfunction
Cytokine storm
Depletion of glutathione (an antioxidant capable of preventing damage to important cellular components caused by reactive oxygen species such as free radicals, peroxides, lipid peroxides, and heavy metals.)
oxidative stress
levels of ferritin in the blood
These are exactly the same presentations as they’ve been seeing from vaccine injury for the last 5 years. RobertFKennedyJr asked her what she thought caused this pandemic. Judy’s hypothesis: SarsCov2 + XMRVs + HIVs + many other adventicious agents in the vaccines depending on the vaccine (cow blood, pig blood — pigs have coronaviruses) + 5G 160ghz will separate hemoglobin from iron (ferritin), the ferritin is released into the blood and if it’s over 3000 it will produce a cytokine storm. It’s a coverup. And if people are potentially already immune why would we give a shot that could possible drive the toxicity as the data have shown? There are natural products that could be helping the vulnerable, shutting everything down doesn’t make sense. If 0.1–0.3% are the only ones we’re protecting and the immunity might already be here??? PLUS vaccines contain nanoparticles that can’t just enter certain cells like wild viruses but can enter every cell??? She goes on to explain that the wild virus of measles actually has beneficial properties that the vaccine doesn’t provide such as lifelong immunity (ie to breast cancer) and possibly blocks. Medical freedom should be a right. End the healthcare system how it is, pay to keep yourself healthy (this is what I’ve said if I understood her correctly, what I’ve been doing for many years, obviously I guess emergency accident injuries might be a covered taxed system or something like in Europe…?) We could see a “golden age of health.” They quote RFK Jr In a non-election year 70% of advertising revenues are from pharma advertising companies and the program is also pro Pharma, dissent is censored, many don’t know of the injuries. We are only 1 of 2 western world nations that allows direct-to-consumer advertising. People don’t understand the clinical trials of these drugs. The commercials paint these fantasy pictures…and yet they’re denied the natural treatments that can actually heal them like medical cannabis. It really is acting like a medical cabal/mafia/racket…
HER ADVICE
In general:
1. 5 year moratorium on all vaccines
2. End the 1986 National Vaccine Injury Compensation Act
3. Repeal the Bayh-Dole Act
4. Close the FDA, CDC, reorganize so that they are indeed providing honest public health services, take patent royalties and pay the vaccine injury victims
ON THE PANDEMIC
End it, let everyone go back to work, tell everyone we’re sorry, we made a mistake, it’s clear coronaviruses are not causing the type of damage & death that was predicted, we clearly know the data of 0.1–0.3%, let everybody go back to work and their lives, restore faith in the promise of science. Let the honest scientists conduct tests to make sure vaccines are truly safe for future. ONE THIRD OF THE GDP IS HHS (HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES! We will balance the budget and take advantage of American and worldwide ingenuity and see an age of health like we haven’t known before.”
THIS DISEASE OF MORAL BANKRUPTCY HAS INFILTRATED EVERY LEVEL, NOT JUST PHARMA
Our ‘civilization’ as Gandhi said needs some civilization! Leaders often put greed & self-interest (ie just above the surface alone we have the legal phenomenon of lobbying which we can see, imagine how much we do not), unsafe practices and crime before integrity, we are destroying our bodies, our ecosystem, our trustworthiness/reputations across the globe, other creatures, and much of it we can not get back (extinctions, ravaged, toxified, stripped land of ecosystems that took more than millennia to develop), deaths, businesses damaged and irreparably closed, unemployment, homelessness, trauma, suicides, neuroses which get passed down if not healed, so many ricocheting effects. We need a unifying leader to bring a coherence to the movement so that civil disobedience is civil, peaceful and once and for all effective in re-instilling truth, ethics and rigor into all of our institutions.
We feed a system continually grinding forward without enough care for our shortcomings. An upside to the shutdown is the clarity that comes from coming to a grinding halt: while I personally continued driving Uber long hours, seeing Los Angeles and surrounding areas like ghost towns has been truly impactful. Our system has chronically abused its citizen like bullies of ‘tyrannical authority’ but under the guise of due process and law but all-too-often with no apparent prioritizing of emotional IQ, logic, and rigorous care for the greatest good.

Polymath poet artist teacher author molecular biologist genius philosopher, Steven Friedman answers what is philosophy, its application to the current covid19 pandemic!?
Philosophy is the one thing that’s always present, is incontrovertible, and so is stronger than anything we have to face, anything we have to deal with…i encourage more exploration of philosophy. It’s not a system of belief, it’s not a matter of faith, it’s not a matter of opinion; it’s a matter of incontrovertible rigor — incontrovertible results about our essential circumstances. The recognition of those circumstances is enough to liberate us from anything we might be fearing, anything we might be despairing. I see philosophy as the ultimate path out of any set of oppressive circumstances, the most powerful tool that human beings have.
Injustice is violent, tyrannical, toxic, anti-evolution, anti-progress and anti everything it should mean to be American! So many awe-inspiring humans are achieving great things in massive and subtle ways. Spacex just brought 2 humans, Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley, to orbit (the International Space Station) together with NASA on Saturday on the first commercial rocket! More and more realize love is the answer
Perhaps someone should lead a sit-in movement like Gandhi did. The deepest issue is a thread that connects us all: a survival level need to weed out the clear and chronic dysfunction and injustice in order genuinely nurture evolution & progress.
