Excellent. Covid is fake as was the pandemic and I will never change that belief. I have never had any pneumonia (age 73) and no vaccines in over 50 years. And yes, cayenne is a miracle herb. I use it daily in a hi-potency tincture for heart problems. Better than any of big pharma's wonder drugs and with no blowback.

Excellent piece. Thank you.

I must take issue with one statement though.

"Governments and the media often lie or exaggerate."

Change OFTEN to ALWAYS and it's good to go.

Since you mentioned Cannabis here are my thoughts. I have problems with they way pot is being legalized. But before I’m steamrolled by advocates I will express for crystal clarity I do not give a shit if people want to get high on marijuana. Just want them to be fking honest for a change.

1) Admit that todays pot ain’t like the pot of the 1970s. It’s been altered for sky high THC content never intended by Mother Nature. So stop acting like it’s natural. It isn’t.

2) Stop with the incessant whining that pot is safer than alcohol. There’s so much wrong with that statement it’s stunning that anyone buys it.

Like most people I typically have a beer with certain foods. My wife might have a glass of wine. No effects felt. We are not drinking to get drunk.

The sole purpose for ingesting pot is to feel its effects. Nobody is smoking weed to compliment a meal or for the refreshing taste.

So the weed to alcohol comparison is only rational in the context of doing each of them solely for the physiological and psychological effect. Drunk vs high. Weed advocates are saying they’re better off high than drunk. But let’s be honest here. Most people are doing both and you know it.

So to those using such arguments just admit, you’re using false equivalencies because you want to get high. Drunk is a bonus.

3) And for Pete’s sake stop with the medicinal benefits. While some of that may be true only a small subset of users need pot for medical reasons. You’re using that excuse like rape and incest is used to justify snuffing out the inconvenience of having a child. It’s an irrelevant statement in the context of the rationale by the vast majority who, admit it, are again, using false equivalencies to justify their position. So, just stop.

Again, I’ll point out, if you want to go through life high as a kite, more power to you!

4) Except, and I cannot emphasize this enough, I don’t want to smell your shit via your smoke wafting into my space. Nor should anyone have to explain to their child what that smell is.

If you don’t have the manners to eat your Scooby snacks and spare people from your second hand smoke then the onlookers you’re abusing should have no problem introducing their fist to your face. Just sayin.

In summation if you want to go through life high as a kite, that’s your business.

Not being subjected to your business is everyone else’s business. Got it?

I’m sure in time despite the myriad of claimed benefits studies will show the corrosive effects recreational pot bestows upon society. But by then we’ll be stuck with it.

Just be honest about why you use it, keep it to yourself and we’ll get along just fine. Until, of course your THC addled brain starts screwing up the infrastructure and it winds up hurting people. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Peace out.

Thank you.

As a Republican who strongly leaned libertarian, I was always for legalization until I moved to a state where it was fully legal, Washington State. There I was continually among the homeless camps and the wacked out street zombies, and gradually came to see that the cost of human degradation was too high. (No pun intended.)

(By the way, I never went near a homeless camp without clouds of pot smoke wafting over it.)

But there are indeed plenty of other reasons to be against it. For one thing, there's a growing body of evidence that chronic pot use and schizophrenia are linked.

Today I'm back in my home state. Ironically, while were living on the West Coast, Oklahoma legalized "medical" marijuana, which btw is a lie. Everyone who has $40 gets a marijuana card, and there are often doctors ready to prescribe it on the same property.

The stench is ever present, just as it was in Seattle. If I'm on my deck, or driving down the road, or in a Walmart parking lot - basically anywhere except sealed within my own home, I smell it.

Also, we have illegal Chinese owned pot farms here now, where they import actual slaves for the labor. A couple of years ago there was one such Chinese operation where they executed two people who presumably had been working for them.

The Chinese government is clever. They know Americans by and large have weak morals and love money but are ironically broke.

So they dangle the “business” of surveillance, marijuana, social credit in the form of ESGs as bait to attract profits and sell it to the public as harmless or beneficial.

You wanna stop crime? Then we all must be spied upon. Cannabis brings revenue, as do traffic cameras. Cannabis is harmless and has medicinal value. Cameras make us safer. ESGs will help curb the never ending bugaboo of climate change and the isms we’re all supposedly subjected to. Lots more.

China brings in the bulk of illegal fentanyl too. Our so-called “leaders” know it but somehow are powerless to stop it.

China must’ve learned from the Mexican cartels how to be useful to our top law enforcement while simultaneously culling the herd.

What’s going on inside America are the sorts of things the American government used to export to control other countries.

Now the buzzards have come home to roost. America is being sold out and is slated to be taken apart piece by piece then absorbed into a world governing body.

At the rate it’s going in less than 25 years nobody will know what America is anymore. Unrecognizable from its Founder’s vision.

Most college graduates can barely even name the founders let alone understand their motivations and intentions.

Unless there’s a gigantic awakening/pushback at the grass roots level kiss it goodbye.

But why worry. Get high. Take your vaccines. Scary Covid variants are endless dontcha know? AI will make jobs a thing of the past. We will own nothing and like it. All for the greater good.

hey, cayenne pepper does have lots of gardening uses. and recently, NAC- which has had dual use status for decades, as an OTC supplement AND as a prescribed ER drug used to prevent liver failure in tylenol overdose cases- came under scrutiny of the FDA, which was threatening to revoke it's OTC status.

seriously? in the middle of a pandemic, they had nothing better to do than remove a useful supplement from consumers? turns out there was serious interest in using NAC to treat covid and we can't have a bunch of regular folks using it to keep themselves out of the hospital when our aim is to get people into the hospital and have them die by the thousands so we can keep the fear based money laundering scheme going.

the immediate threat seems to have passed but for a while, amazon stopped selling NAC and other sources were tapped out. personally, i hoarded as much of it as i could get my hands on.

Also Taurine has myriad benefits for the heart and nervous system. The human body is 0.1% taurine. It's not a stimulant despite the common misconception. Pycnogenol is a potent anti-oxidant with all the benefits that would entail. A reversal of 10 years of aging is a bit far-fetched, but if someone noticed a visible improvement from these supplements that would be entirely expected.

i've had large doses of taurine in IVs for flu along with high vitamin C and magnesium. you go home, fall asleep and wake up feeling better. no one would ever mistake me for 70 so i was almost willing to believe that massive doses of NAC could account for such a thing

The threat has not passed.

Laws are afoot to "regulate" natural health products both here in Canada and in the USA. Our mainline drugstores have not had NAC on the shelves for about two years but so far it is still available at the vitamin shoppes.

We have much safer and more effective drugs for whatever ails you. Why would you mess about with unproven supplements?

Mark, you are missing one key point: people these days have mostly not been taught to think for themselves. Instead - encouraged by our teachers and our governments and our media - we outsource our thinking to "experts". (I'm all for checking out experts, BTW - but we also need to be discriminating in how readily & uncritically we accept their conclusions.)

I was fortunate in growing up in a family where discussion was encouraged, and having some excellent teachers over the course of my life. But I have gradually come to realise how rare that is - and even rarer today, I think.

Two out of my four kids fell for the scam. The other two did not. So I'm at 50%. At my level, I have six elderly siblings, with me making seven total. All of my six siblings jumped all over the vaccine, making me the only one who did not. One of the six died a couple of months after her third shot. Suddenly and unexpectedly during a 45 minute window when her boyfriend left the house to run errands. She was fine when he left, dead when he returned. Spleen full of clots. My surviving five siblings won't talk to me about it. It's like I don't exist.

i wish you were right about that but i know lots of people who formerly thought for themselves. one, a PhD vet from Cornell, is a horse acupuncturist, a TCM herbalist and a homeopath. she once confessed to me that she had used an alternate schedule when it came to vaccinating her young son AND had falsified his records, so that it looked like he had received the chickenpox vaccine when in fact he had not because "that vaccine was just put on the schedule to make money for MERCK." when her father had cancer, she treated him with homeopathy and managed to keep him alive and well for a considerable period of time. she is clearly a person who thinks for herself but she bought the pandemic bullshit hook, line and sinker, and recently bemoaned that not enough people were masking in the airport.

another (former) friend was my assistant in the costume department of the Spoleto Arts Festival for 30 years (i worked there since 1980, taking over the department in 1982). after i was unceremoniously let go for lack of a covid vaccine, she cleaned out my desk (she did not ascend into my position- they hired someone from the outside), brought my stuff over without bothering to tell me that she was on her way and dumped it on our front porch. our security camera let us know that someone was out there which is the only reason we saw her.

this is a woman who 25 years ago had terminal bladder cancer and no insurance. she had experimental surgery to remove her bladder and reroute her urine through an incision in her naval, no chemo or radiation. the doctors all volunteered their services but the bill was still $100,000 something. she negotiated a very protracted payment plan with the hospital which they fought because they didn't think she would last that long. for all i know she's still paying them back. she drinks raw milk and essiac tea and is strong as an ox, especially considering her lifelong eating disorder; she is cadaverously thin.

she was always fiercely loyal to me as i was to her.

we had dinner with her during the pandemic (by dinner i mean that we ate while she watched) in a restaurant in virginia, where we had to go because unvaccinated people weren't allowed in restaurants in DC; we were there for the March Against the Mandates and she was in full support of our cause.

during our last exchange on my front porch, she said that i had made my free choice to not get vaccinated and the Festival had honored my choice but that i had given them no choice but to fire me and move on; there was no discrimination. she also said that she worked with the "most wonderful, extraordinary, talented great people" as if working with me for 30 years had been chopped liver. it was not how a friend talks to another friend.

in fact there was discrimination. the governor of SC signed into law that april a bill making medical discrimination a crime and the Festival had to change their draconian attendance policies (full vaccination plus booster after 5 months, mask, photo ID, no children under 5- you can imagine what that did for ticket sales which were hurt even further by the reversal of the policies when the terrified asked for refunds once ticket sales were opened to include "them").

so here's a woman who faced a terminal cancer diagnosis, had the bravery to deal with it in her own way and lived to tell the tale, took the vaccine not out of any strong conviction but really just to keep her regular job, was happy to sit down with her unvaccinated friends and supported their anti-mandate position, and yet she turned on me and even lied about the quality of the costume department without me when i asked how it went.

i know this because one day the theater called, desperately asking if i'd help out in a crisis and i told them i'd rather eat ground glass. i also had friends backstage reporting to me and the woman who replaced me was not rehired the following year.

i wish you were right. it might be easier to teach people to think for themselves than to teach people who already think for themselves to avoid carefully orchestrated programs of mass hypnosis.

So many stories like this! And I feel for your pain, especially at this betrayal from someone you considered a friend.

I don't know what else to say, because it is truly mind-boggling to realise just how badly people can behave. And all the while, justifying it to themselves (& others too) & being self-righteous about it.

It really is a "mind virus" that has taken hold, and the rest of us are left to deal with the ramifications, somehow. (If only we could find a vaccine that was effective against THIS virus!)

There were never any deadly pandemics caused by a pathogen. There were always other causes, like Wuhan's pollution, etc.

https://denisrancourt.substack.com/p/there-was-no-pandemic

Anyway we know it was a sham.

Let's say there was a deadly virus. How would it spread far if it incapacitates people? Sasha Latypova wrote a good one on that sham.

Spanish flu was caused by many factors: the war conditions, overuse of aspirin, shots being used...

Smallpox: sanitation issues, dirty water supplies, crowded housing

Polio: pesticides like DDT and arsenic based ones.

Covid: ventilators, remdesevir, and panic.

Ebola: remember the Americans that got it and were flown back? Out of 4, 2 of them got better before treatment. The other 2 got better quickly. Gotta wonder if the outbreaks happen in Africa in areas that have toxic dumps, like the places where we send our electronic junk full of heavy metals to!?

Everything about the official Ebola story is fraud. It's used mainly to cover up the consequences of colonialism and the current actions of vicious multinational corporations in Africa which create the conditions that create the diseases.

The real reasons for “Ebola” are industrial pollution; organophosphate pesticides (causes bleeding); vast overuse of antibiotics (causes bleeding); severe and debilitating nutritional deficiencies (which can cause bleeding); starvation; drastic electrolyte loss; chronic diarrhea; grinding poverty; war; stolen farm land; vaccination campaigns (in people whose immune systems are compromised, vaccines can easily wipe out their last shreds of health) and so forth.

- Pharmacies and hospital drug dispensaries in Sierra Leone discovered the widely using highly toxic beta-lactam antibiotics;

- Pesticide companies shipping banned toxic pesticides to Africa;

- Adenovirus vaccines being used in Liberia, Guinea, and Liberia (the epicenter of "Ebola") with the following adverse effects: blood in the urine or stool, and diarrhea;

- Firestone Rubber Plantation in Liberia caught dumping poisons in water;

- Liberia Coca Cola bottling plant dumping foul black liquid seeping into the environment.

On and on it goes.

Haven't even gotten into the mass poisoning in Africa due to mining for rare earth minerals.

The many reasons they perpetrated the Plandemonium are varied but generally relate, in this humble caveman's mind, to wresting personal and national sovereignty away.

The wet market (zoonosis) / lab leak canard was always an obfuscation to heighten the fear and cloud the obvious fact that they simply gave a scary aura to the same constellation of respiratory distress that has always plagued humanity to control elections and foist digital biosecurity on the populace.

Maybe the virus story helped people deny the inevitability of death. "If I don't get Covid I'll never die." No one said this out loud because it's obviously insane. But left unstated as an unexamined fallacy in the subconscious it could motivate Boomers and others to focus on the alleged virus as the exclusive cause of death. This would explain why they agreed to neglect their health and allow other life threatening conditions to go untreated for this prolonged time.

There is no such thing as "COVID" as a biological phenomenon. SARS-CoV-2 is an in silico computer generated simulacrum with an immense marketing budget, government mandates and restrictions whose purpose was to convince the public that a "deadly" submicroscopic particle landed from outer space.

The operation was set in motion in the summer of 2019 and launched in March 2020 in order to change the entire financial and social order of The West due a confluence of existential crises that were facing the ruling class parasites that could no longer be kicked down the road.

The COVID phenomenon cannot be understood without understanding the un-televised 2019-2020 unprecedented financial collapse threatening the entire global financial system.

The "timely" arrival of the Covid-19 “emergency” provided the rationale and the opportunity to freeze the US banking collapse with massive injections of cash. Somewhere in the neighborhood of $8-10 trillion was paid to US banks up until March 2020 with an additional $5 trillion in economic stimulus promised by the Fed.

The Covid-19 Pandemic story makes little sense when viewed through the lens of health, safety and science. Viewed through the lens of money, power, control, and wealth transfer, however, then all of it makes perfect sense.

Manufactured pandemics are now mammoth investment opportunities that increase the wealth of billionaires and further consolidate their power.

As the “War on Terror” illustrated, these deep events are constructed to exploit as many different lines of acquisition as possible. With the “Covid Pandemic” replacing the phony “War on Terror” yet another revamped “worldwide crisis” miraculously morphs into a ruling class multi-purpose golden opportunity.

Covid-19, the disease, is nothing more than a disease of FALSE ATTRIBUTION.

Covid-19, the media event, was the Trojan Horse constructed to usher in a complete transformation of our society.

Covid-19, the operation, was never an epidemiological event, it is a business model meant to increase the portfolios of the super-wealthy.

There is no such thing as “Covid 19” except as a criminal conspiracy.

Allen, I think you're the same "Allen" that I've exchanged comments with since we both saw this as a financial crime. You obviously have more knowledge/understanding of this than I do, but having been keeping a bit of an eye on the repo market in 2019, I knew the banks were in deep, deep doo-doo. In the fall of 2019, it was so bad as I remember it that I'd thought that the "crash" we'd been warned about for decades was about to strike.

In early 2020, when news of the operation disguised as a severe respiratory infection crisis was unfolding before us, I called it. Aside from my husband, I told one person on my team that this "whole thing is an operation -- coming out of the financial system." She looked at me like I had two heads. She had no idea what I was talking about even as I tried to explain...

Thank you for your very insightful, knowledgeable comments.

Well said Allen. About 2 years ago I heard Dr Shiva and others discuss the 2019 sovereign debt crisis that essentially required a worldwide halt to biz activity and massive liquidity creation to prevent a cataclysmic collapse of the worldwide financial system. Along with that, the super wealthy have been buying up hard assets like crazy...especially land, other real estate, etc.

The one confounding concern I have with this fictitious virus theory is that for most of us, the symptoms were “different” than any previous illness. So in that respect it seems like a “real” pathogen was involved. Lab created for just this purpose.

Interested in your take on the vax. Placebo? designed to kill? In between? Usher in vax passports and CBDC?

Nov 9, 2023Liked by Mark Oshinskie

I would say to this a few things- one being that "different" symptoms are always occuring in people. That doesn't really mean too much biologically. I would add to that that our environments have been radically altered over the past ten to fifteen years particularly as relates to EMF poisoning but also what is in food is completely different than what it was a few decades ago- particularly GMO's.

People's biological exposures have been radically altered with the advent of computers, iPhones, 5G and on and on. There is also much more crap in the soil and air including glyphodsate and heavy metals.

In 2020-present there were also massive additional stressors WITH and VIA an unprecedented social event- lockdowns. This will have all sorts of unforeseen biological responses. It would be peculiar if people did not have unique symptoms from such an unprecedented event of this magnitude and duration.

On the vax- 100% not a placebo. I watched very healthy university students get these injections over a two year period and nearly every single one of them was getting quite ill from the shots though for a short time for most.

I don't think it is a depopulation as some do but think it imprudent to wholly rule that out. If it is a bioweapon it is not a very good one.

It's purpose in my view was to mass introduce and normalize the mRNA platform and legitimize "gene therapy" as a "vaccine." This will become Biopharma's new cash cow and receive indemnity under the vaxx umbrella. As well it will wipe out lengthy and costly safety trials via emergency measures thusly increasing the ROI for pharma investors which had tanked to nearly 0% by 2019.

Yes as mechanism to trial vaxx passports (failed) but no to vaxx as a route to CBDC's they are doing that through other means.

My 2 cents.

Here's what I believe about The Covid Operation itself which covers many objectives:

Pre-emption of and disguising the reasons for the 2019 economic collapse of Western financial systems;

Acceleration of the largest upwards transfer of wealth in human history;

Justification for and entrenchment of the Bio-Security State, including AI surveillance across multiple sectors of society;

Empowering and enriching the Security State’s counterpart the Big Tech Cartel via tracking apps, proliferating and normalizing social media and communication platforms as “the middle man” in all walks of life;

The creation of “The Pandemic” as a financial mechanism. Manufactured pandemics have become mammoth investment opportunities that increase the wealth of billionaires and further consolidate their power;

Expansion of the public health industry itself into all walks of public and economic life. The public health industry is now directly tied to global markets and financial conglomerates and has become one of the most critical financial instruments for investors;

Creation of an entirely new and lucrative Bio-Medical “health management” system in order to introduce and codify an entirely new Bio-Tech medical model for the Pharmaceutical Industry with a focus on “revolutionary” uploadable mRNA “vaccines”;

Expansion of and normalizing the use of digital IDs, including vaccine passports, connecting these to a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC); a Universal Basic Income (UBI) scrip, allowing for the tracking of purchases; medical interventions, “lifestyle choices”, etc. “nudging” us towards ‘desired’ behaviors or shutting us out of the system altogether as they wish;

A re-organisation, privatization and reduction of public services under the pretense of making them “more nimble” for “public emergencies”;

Everything about CoVid was illogical. The tenets of virology claim that natural immunity is what vaccines try to copy yet jabs are necessary in spite of previous infection. Viral particles are unimaginably small but crude masks could “filter” out these submicroscopic particles. A molecular analytical detection test (PCR) with no diagnostic clinical validation studies could test for this virus. Asymptomatic infection was promoted to account for much of the positive test results in seemingly healthy people. Any science with this many glaring contradictions is a pseudoscience.

If I had a £ for every person I told back at the beginning that, if it was really *that* deadly and transmissible, the whole of China would have died and that viruses mutate so as not to kill the host because then they would die too, I'd be as rich as Bill Gates by now.

I'm a nobody with no qualifications but even I understood that it was just a coronavirus and everybody and his dog has had at least one of them in their lives so had a record in the immune system on how to deal with it. Likewise, why would anyone take an injection of something that a mere 5 minutes of research would show had never worked before and was for something which mutated constantly?

I think an awful lot of western humanity was just waiting for something "exciting" to happen and a harmless pandemic fitted the bill nicely. They could all be terrified and they could all manfully and nobly strive to save all the grannies with very little risk to themselves. The ones who really were terrified have been damaged beyond repair but that's called collateral damage isn't it?
