The far left city of Burbank, California, where Biden beat Trump by 40-60 points, banned “To Kill a Mockingbird,” “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” “Of Mice and Men” and other books because they said they were racist

All governments, left, right, and center, are always trying to ban history, overwhelm you to try to distract you from your own history, and make it easier to steer you away from your traditions, religion, culture, language, food, or otherwise.  It's been claimed that The Odyssey by Homer was passed down through history by oral recitation.  And certainly, speech among friends, colleagues, neighbors, and acquaintances helps keep memories of the past alive.  But in politics, in that spiritual battle of good versus evil, speech is weaponized.  Weaponized speech is often used by people with no power.  People use it to go after, to hunt their neighbors. because their own lives are so petty.  It's like they're masters of the universe of Yelp.  With COVID, the government was telling you how to maintain hygiene during a fake outbreak by washing your hand.  You knew that.  You didn't need to be told.  You knew that if you were sick, you wash your hands.  But in the absence of being sick, the government had to become its full nanny and tell you to wash your hands even though you weren't dirty or sick.  Stay 6' apart they said.  Wear a mask, they said.  They tried to convince you that you had no proper functioning immune system, and instead rely on these external "immune suppressors," like a mask, like 6' apart, like a vaccine.  Ah, last time I checked, health does not come from a needle.  The government worked to make you forget about what works for you.  And they created mass formation to put that added pressure on your thinking that made their messages more persuasive and throw your good sense into question.  This is what they do in war.  This is war.

AFTER February 24th, 2022, Piers Morgan Stands with Ukraine!! Deeply committed. But Piers' care for Ukrainian children only began after 2022?

Thanks to Gail Appel and Lew Rockwell @ Lew Rockwell.  

Terrific.  Love Roseanne all the more.  Saw her once in Beverly Hills back in the late 90s.  She smiled.  I felt like waiving because her demeanor was so friendly.

3:50  I wanted to do a quick look at Piers Morgan's Twitter account when I saw I was going to be debating about Ukraine. And you know what I saw on his Twitter account virtually no tweets about Ukraine prior to 2019.  Nothing.  Nothing.  In 2019, he made fun of Zelenskyy, a comedian, and actor, with no political experience, becoming president.  And there were no tweets about Ukraine until February 24th, 2022.  And then it's all, "My God, I stand with Ukraine!!" But why couldn't you stand with Ukraine back between 2014 and 2022?  You didn't stand with them back then?  You don't care so you care for the Ukrainian children only began after 2022?  Interesting. 

"for a long period of time, high-prescribing doctors would be invited to trips or annual conferences, that sort of thing"

one of the problems with medical training is that they're not actually training doctors to be critical thinkers but to sort of accept whatever is the wisdom of the day

you think, "Oh, the doctors are probably reading medical journals and looking at the methodology section and the data."  That doesn't happen.  They are lucky if they glanced at the abstracts.  So often the abstracts are spun; they're not actually consistent with what's in the data.

for the longest period of time what they did is they would bring in breakfast, they'd bring in lunches, they'd bring in, you know, some sort of food to eat in the afternoon, and what would happen is you . . . you bring this food in, okay, by the drug reps, who were often are pretty young women. 

what you really see at every step of the way from the beginning of the generation of the evidence base is a story of commerce, a story of creating a story and then disseminating that story that will support a market, support a product, and that's what you see at every step of the way 

The Invasion of False Science Into Medical Schools and Medical Journals.  Thanks to Barbara Loe Fisher for this clip and information.  The speaker's name is Robert Whitaker, author of Anatomy of an Epidemic, 2010.

This is a clip from the movie, Medicating Normal, 2022.

So, unfortunately, I think one of the problems with medical training is that they're not actually training doctors to be critical thinkers but to sort of accept whatever is the wisdom of the day.  So then you want to look at where does the wisdom of the day come from?  And you think, "Oh, the doctors are probably reading medical journals and looking at the methodology section and the data."  That doesn't happen.  They are lucky if they glanced at the abstracts.  So often the abstracts are spun; they're not actually consistent with what's in the data.  But then really, you know, especially for a long time, you ha[d] these free dinners, continuing medical education dinners.  They go out to a nice restaurant, the doctors, or, say, psychiatrists, and there you'd have a famous person, or a fairly famous person, giving a talk about the wonders of the latest drug.  So one thing is freebies, basically free dinners, etc.  That was really big in the '90s and the first parts of the 2000s.  

Then next you have the drug reps they come around and they come to doctors offices and at least for the longest period of time what they did is they would bring in breakfast, they'd bring in lunches, they'd bring in, you know, some sort of food to eat in the afternoon, and what would happen is you . . . you bring this food in, okay, by the drug reps, who were often are pretty young women.  And then they might bring in a speaker to give the talk to the doctor to give but what you have there for is a method of disseminating information to prescribing doctors that involves you know that's where they're getting their information from is from pharmaceutical companies basically, you know, pitching their product, and often they'll leave brief samples.   That sort of thing.  And at least for a long period of time, high-prescribing doctors would be invited to trips or annual conferences, that sort of thing.  So you see money really governing medical education, continuing medical education, what doctors learn at their offices, what young residents learn.  

Money is greasing the story-telling at every step of the way from money greasing what academic psychiatrists say to what the ordinary doctor in his office learns about.  So everywhere what you're seeing is a commercialized presentation of supposed scientific information.  

MEDICAL JOURNALS

And then the other problem you do see of course is where you think "The medical journals!"  Well, the former editors of medical journals like JAMA, and New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), and the British Medical Journal they've all said that like basically we became vehicles for a sort of story laundering.  In other words, they began where they couldn't even trust what was being published and their own journals because of this corrupt process.  And then you also have the problem that advertisements are going to the medical journals, that's what they rely on to fund their operations.  So if we deconstruct this storytelling process in our society, this information that gets out to the public to prescribing doctors what you really see at every step of the way from the beginning of the generation of the evidence base is a story of commerce, a story of creating a story and then disseminating that story that will support a market, support a product, and that's what you see at every step of the way.  Now supposedly it's getting cleaned up some because it got so out of hand, you know, by 2008 and 2009, but I don't really know how much it's getting cleaned up.  That's sort of still we need you know we need to see.  What we do know is from the mid-1980s to 2010 roughly, in psychiatry, it was the wild wild West with money greasing this storytelling process from A to Z. 

Edward Jenner promised that his smallpox vaccine would deliver lifetime immunity . . . then revised to 14 Years . . . then to 7 Years . . . then to 5 . . . then to 2

Does that sound familiar?  It should.  

Whoever did this deserves an award.

Fauci, Walensky, Rachel Maddow (not a scientist or a doctor or anything really), and Bill Gates said you have "long-lasting immunity."  But they all lied.  They knew they lied.  This vaccine, nor any before it, is not the first rodeo, nor will it be the last.  Time will lapse.  People will forget or diminish the death and devastation the vaccines wrought.

The speaker's name is Barbara Loe Fisher.  Find her Twitter page here.

U.S. industrialist and philanthropist John Pitcairn pointed that out when he testified before the Pennsylvania legislature in 1907 against mandatory smallpox vaccination. He said: “Jenner began by claiming that vaccination made a person immune for life, but the facts of observation soon resulted in the term being shortened to 14 years; then it was made seven; then five; then two; and in the Spanish-American War, six months was the limit of immunity.” Not only did smallpox vaccination not provide lifelong immunity, but live vaccinia virus vaccination could spread vaccine strain infection to other people.
