Thanks, Taco.

People are so detached from reality.

I concur with Edo. Once large numbers of people get scared, they'll grasp at anything. Any lifeguard trying to save a drowning person that thrashes hysterically in the water, knows how dangerous they can be. Fauci has waited his entire career for this kind of power and influence. And pharma is having the biggest payday since the invention of capitalism. Neither will let go unless forced to do so. Keep up the great work.

Ain’t that the truth. It’s like we are living in multiple realities.

They are aggressively self-removed from rationality. They think in primitive terms of factions, rather than facts, and they are the good guys.

I have been referring to the "believers" as Branch Covidians for a while now, and only in part because I thought it was funny. It really is like they have joined a cult. Facts and evidence have no effect because they have faith. You article really does a good job of breaking this down to specifics. Keep it up.

To say I agree with you, would be an understatement!

The lines between science and religion are blurring, which is a very dangerous thing. Constitutional protections that separate Church and State are being erased.

Thank you, Mark, for articulating so well what I have been desperately trying to convey to those who blindly repeat mantras such as Trust The Science™, Listen To The Experts™, and Pandemic Of The Unvaccinated™. I think your spin of calling it a state religion is brilliant—although, since it’s global, I would be tempted to call it a OneState Religion, perhaps because I’m in the midst of listening to the audiobook of Yevgeny Zamyatin’s “We” (a prescient progenitor of and inspiration for 1984, Brave New World, Fahrenheit 451, Anthem, and nearly every dystopian novel you can think of).

My own efforts to deprogram members of the Covidian cult (as CJ Hopkins calls it) inspired my Letter to a Covidian: A Time-Travel Experiment (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/letter-to-a-covidian-a-time-travel), which I just followed up with Letter to a Colluder: Stop Enabling Tyranny (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/letter-to-a-colluder-stop-enabling).

The sooner we get people to realize they have been hypnotized into a religion/cult and that it couldn’t be further from actual scientific inquiry, the sooner we may be able to shatter the tyrannical spell that has been cast over the planet.

Thanks, Margaret. Keep speaking out.

It's been painful to experience. And the faith of the injectors is truly child-like.

Indeed—it astounds me to see how few people can see through the flagrantly farcical propaganda. Mass hypnosis is terrifyingly effective.

I am grateful to be fighting beside people like you as together we work to unmask tyranny and awaken the sleeping before tyranny triumphs.

I’m on the other side of the country in one of the most fascistic states, Oregon, helmed by Governor Kate Brownshirt.

I have an Oregon friend who is currently traveling with her husband to find a more free state to live in. A sad thing that things are so bad they would leave their home of decades.

Expand full comment

MountainBlues, I wish your friends well and hope they find a new home state where they can be free. I’d be curious to see where they land. My husband and I are deeply rooted here and love everything about Oregon except for the totalitarianism and wildfires (admittedly, pretty big deals ;-) We are committed to staying here and fighting it out to the last, however things come down.

Their faith is so intense that if I sent them your essay, the title of your substack (scamdemic) would immediately turn them off and they probably wouldn't even read it. 🤦🏻‍♀️😞

Thanks, Margaret, for that myth buster article. It's a good summary.

Fleshing out the idea from CJ Hopkins article "The Covidian Cult (Part III)"

asymptomatic transmission = "Body Thetans"

PCR test = "Holding the Cans" autiting

"The Science" = "Acceptable Truth"

Unvaccinated = "Pre-Clear"

Triple Vaccinated = "Clear/Operating Thetan"

Vaccine = "Tech"

Vaccine Refuser = "Degraded Beings"

Media = "Ethics Officer"

Bill Gates = "The Commodore"

Dr. Fauci = "Commodore’s Messenger"

Disinformation Dozen = "Suppressive Person"

GAVI = "G.O.: Guardian’s Office"

COVID rules = "Condition formulas"

Cancellation = "Fair Game"

0% COVID = "OT IX"

Transhumanism = "The Bridge"

"COVID-19" = Xenu

Tony Fauci* = Tom Cruse

Klaus Schwab =David Miscavige

Rothschild/Rockafeller = L. Ron Hubbard

(I've got Fauci listed twice, but I'm certain that a Rockafeller fits into this hierarchy somewhere)

*lol* Brilliant glossary! CJ Hopkins is my favorite contemporary satirist and a marvelous ally to have in the resistance to tyranny!

Thanks, heh. Your substack is what's brilliant. Isn't it amazing? We've always been ruled by deception, but it's out in the open now. Behavioral psychologists set policy.

Have you ever seen the documentary "Human Resources"? https://youtu.be/bIfGA9YzkEo

Aww, thank you, Gigolo Joe, and it is indeed the most astonishing feat of mass hypnosis in human history!

I haven’t seen “Human Resources,” but thanks for the link! I’ll add to my queue for later.

Have you watched the Academy of Ideas series on mass psychosis? They’re all at the end of my piece, “Primer for the Propagandized: Fear Is the Mind-Killer” (https://margaretannaalice.substack.com/p/a-primer-for-the-propagandized).

Cheers, and I look forward to seeing you at my blog!

P.S. You’ve probably seen this because it’s been making the rounds, but just in case, here’s Reiner and the Berlin Corona Investigative Committee's interview with Professor Mattias Desmet on mass formation:

I agree with the commentariat here that this was a jolly good show Mark. Isn't it funny how substack comes along and suddenly I have four times as much reading to do. All these indispensable writers that I hadn't even heard of before.

I can't see how it will last. I haven't seen anything about who is behind substack, but I did hear that they resisted a twitter buyout.

I can’t seem to find it now, but I recently saw Substack CEO Chris Best on a mainstream news interview where they were trying to push him into agreeing to the need for censorship, and he gave an eloquent pushback in favor of free speech, which I found both refreshing and encouraging.

Substack really has been a godsend.

I urge you to be skeptical of Substack, since we've seen over the past few years a trajectory of similar alt-tech services that have started up with promises of free speech, and later moved towards censorship.

Nooooooo hope never! I just found sane people.

Take it to the next step: The authorized vaccines are all gene therapy drugs, per FDA definition, their active ingredients are nucleic acids. That class of drugs is known to carry a risk of cancer. The new treatment drug, Molnupiravir is mutagenic, which also carries a cancer risk. If these drugs cause an epidemic of cancer, it will take several years and you won't be able to sue the drug companies for giving you cancer. But you will have to pay the drug companies for the cancer drugs, which are patented and expensive. Leukemia meds cost $300k per course. It'll be astronomically profitable for the drug companies. Nobody can prove that the drug firms are doing this, but the incentives are all aligned to produce that result. And the behavior of the drug companies and government regulators all align with those incentives as well.

Super observations, agree completely. Another element of cognitive dissonance is that it’s often the same Whole Foods-shopping anti-GMO crusaders (who wouldn’t be caught dead eating one serving of “frankenfoods”) who are now insisting OTHERS inject substances to inflict permanent changes to their DNA/RNA.

No question it's a cult. It's fanatical. It's one thing to 'believe' and another to force people to accept what you believe indeed. How is this any different than what we see with organized religion? The problem is people are so deluded with fear, they think vaccines are a means to a medical end and that no one who agrees is 'anti-science' even though the literature is showing, on the balance, the 'experimental' vaccines are really of low quality. It's like Hotel California. You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave. Vaccines and boosters are a vicious circle that only the pharma drug cartel profits.

Mark, have you noticed how they are following the script of the movie "Contagion"? We will all be saved by the "Vaccine".

I totally agree with you. When I read this its like you are reading my mind!

As a physician, its been hard to watch. Painful in fact.

Right?! that little song and dance was disturbing to say the least. Everyone knows about the shot and by now, everyone who wants it, has had it. Some who are sitting on the fence about it will take it once C19 affects someone they know. Others will not get it no matter what. I believe that there is room for all people to make their own decision and not get coerced by the threat of losing their income for non-compliance

That movie, or that awful movie, Outbreak with Dustin Hoffman. They isolated the virus once they found the host and produced litres of "cure" in a matter of hours.

Pharma to the rescue! Pharma is God-like.

What's funny / disturbing is that true believers can't admit that what's happening isn't anything like Contagion. They should all go watch that movie ... that is what a true pandemic would look like.

I totally agree. The term vaccine is a lie. Someone needs to learn English. Those who choose to mislead by using language such as fully vaccinated should be incarcerated. They are definitively frauds.

Mark, I like the term “injectors”. I think of someone who does something automatically; without thinking.

What's going on is we are gauging the extent of stupidity within the human mass. And it is turning out to be far beyond anything we could have imagined. It is beyond critical. It spells our doom.

Excellent article. Brilliantly written and factually spot on. I was blessed to have read it as it confirms the decision the five in my immediate family made to never get the vax - no matter the consequences that might befall us.

You'll be fine. So will nearly every reasonably healthy person.

I came down very sick with the virus at age 71. While mostly healthy, I am being treated for aplastic anemia - my body doesn't make enough blood cells to keep me alive so I rely on medications to keep my bone marrow stimulated. I recovered along with my husband who had pancreatic cancer and recovered from the virus.....but not the cancer. Three of my grown children got it, two are a tad overweight, and they all recovered.

I state this to just point out that even the sick can recover. We did so without any doctor's care. I think that was the key for us - staying away from traditional doctors and hospitals. Others that I know believe that the Ivermectin regimen they were able to get helped them get over it faster. I am glad that the information about alternative treatments is getting out into the public through the internet.

Best regards.

I am not a doctor, but you might want to look into fenbendazole as a cure for cancer.
