I am watching The Last Of The Mohicans for the 1200th time, and I have to laugh.
This movie is gay as hell, but....here we are again. Stupid British always getting their way.
“Your young white, who gathers his learning from books and can measure what he knows by the page, may conceit that his knowledge, like his legs, outruns that of his fathers’, but, where experience is the master, the scholar is made to know the value of years, and respects them accordingly.”
― James Fenimore Cooper, The Last of the Mohicans
The booster narrative is so frustrating.
So here the government says you don't need to do an antibody test before getting the booster shot, because the antibody count doesn't really yield enough information about immunity. In basically the same sentence they're saying that the booster shot is important because it raises antibody levels.
And what's the point of increasing antibody levels when those antibodies created by the vaccine and booster only partially react to the currently circulating variant? Tests show that Delta escapes one out of four antibodies, Delta+ escapes two out of four? So which antibodies does the vaccine create? What's the point of keeping antibody levels high if those are not the correct antibodies?
It's a pretty basic question in my opinion, it should be easy to explain, especially by all those "I love science" faggotrons. Of course, public discourse is driven by dumb NPCs listening to even dumber whorenalists sucking up to even more dumber politicians, and the end result is that "science" is treated as a religion now.
"Well, I don't really know, but I trust the experts and specialists that do this professionally". Ok nice, that's good, but why do you trust them religiously? In the next sentence you'll handwave away another change in narrative by accepting that science is always coming up with new knowledge, yet every current set of knowledge needs to be accepted as absolute and immutable truth?
People need to take a basic look at the presented facts and apply a tiny bit of critical thinking, you know, what science is all about.
What do the booster shots do, what's the point? If something is unclear, don't fucking accept it as divine truth, but fucking demand a proper explanation by those who should know.
But no. It's fucking religion, and by GOD I fucking hope it all collapses soon. All of society. I just don't see a way how society can recover from this. How can I go about my day knowing how absolutely dumb, ignorant, and utterly VILE the majority of the people around me are?
Ugh. I need some puppy videos.
Part of me believes that the scariest thing is that there is truly none of those things. And that ultimately...its all simply...raw human stupidity doing its thing.
Everyday I wake up hoping that this idiotic farce will collapse in on itself, those who have embraced the blind worship of science and authoritarianism draped in progressivism, will begin thinking critically about the situation again and reflect on how blind they were.
Hopefully one day we'll find our way out of this sick joke being forced upon the public, but it's not something I see happening without things getting bad first or something just straight up shattering the illusion.
Let's just hope the predictions about death due to myocarditits and ADE are wrong, that the numbers being predicted by 'experts' that are continually wrong, continue to be wrong and wildly overstated and that in seeing this people snap out of it. Hell at this point I'll even take economic collapse.
Thats why you cant argue with these people. I remember I have seen someone in a comment section on Youtube compare Anti-vaxxers negatively to annoying customers. I told him that its more pro vaxxers and the guy talked all sarcastic about the virus being deadly and how he doesnt want me to occupy the already filled hospitals. I then dropped
"Full hospitals"
"Doctors and nurses being fired for refusing the vax"
"Pick one"
He then replied "lol, what you talking about? I dont have to explain anything to you! bye bye!"
They literally cant be reasoned with. They either face your arguments with dismissal or anger...or both.
I've had this conversation more than once, but I'm polite enough not to push it to far, as I remember what it was like to argue with a true believer.
Oh well, I suppose their have to face reality one day, and I can't imagine that'll be pleasant for them. I suppose I'm lucky that I was young when I realised thinking this way got me nowhere.
"unmasking" lol it's been like two years. give it up already. most normies are done with this and it shows if you go just about anywhere. Just wear your face condom and bunker down forever to save obnoxious sanctimonious bitches like this. This makes me not want to "mask" even more, honestly.
But remember - we're the selfish ones for not continuing to kowtow to pandemic theatre in order to appease these pathetic hypochondriacs.
On a side note I've being friendly towards complete strangers again. Well strangers also not wearing masks, strangers pointing out how this is bullshit, strangers bitching about govt and these ludicrous rules.
For people like these I'm more than happy to be friendly for once.
It seems like I’ll never be able to go to weebland in my lifetime now, unless some miracle happens. What’s the point of living if I can’t travel the world? Might as well just end it all travel the world as a ghost.
I went years ago as a teenager on a school trip. It was warm, muggy & uncomfortable, but I enjoyed myself and if I get the chance to go back I will. You'll get there too someday, just be patient. All of this will come to pass.
No, there's been no shared sacrifice. No pulling together - as always, "us" and "them". The national level of anger has never been higher, and most people have lost all faith and trust in government/media/judiciary/law enforcement at ANY level. The societal damage caused by the Chinese Flu far exceeds the medical damage, if you will. And the societal damage is not likely to ever be fully repaired.
It's not just US. If you look around you, it's a lot of the world.
Anyone who is not a Branch Covidian is I would imagine done with this shit. It can be seen everywhere and I think you're right about wider society, there are going to be fundamental trust issues and those are going to cause major societal problems.
This has ripped the mask off of a lot of people, to whom I will never be able to truly trust or actually respect again and that is personally saddening to me. People I thought had critical thinking skills, people I saw sneer at religion suddenly worshipping at the altar of science. The kind of people I can now see unironically snitching because those around them refuse to comply.
His answers were one dose unless you had Johnson and Johnson which needed a booster shot and I don't think so. It was clear though that he wasn't prepared to answer those questions as he stuttered a bit before telling me he got vaccinated to 'protect himself' and how he 'read up on the vaccine and COVID before doing so.' He did end the conversation though with 'I know everyone has their own opinions. You do what you think is best for you.' He's not a bad guy by any stretch but this 'just relaying the message' thing is unnerving. There's just this tension in the air as people walk on eggshells around the matter.
I too enjoy asking uncomfortable questions. It's good fun. I suppose he didn't try and coerce you into anything, so don't be too mean to him if things go to shit.
I'm furious, upset, and absolutely appalled. The teachers and us parents were all crying on pick up about an hour ago. The remaining teachers have no idea what is going to happen from here on out with an insufficient roster to care for the currently enrolled children. My partner was pretty cunty about it and said they all deserve to lose their jobs for not believing in science. I have one friend to talk to about this IRL and I had a good rant/cry on the phone with her because this is psychologically horrifying for me.
I don't have kids but I do have family who work for the DHB's and friends who work in Early Childhood Education, and I can't see this ending well. Especially if a number of staff are obliged to quit because they for quite logical reasons don't want any part of this experiment. It fucking sucks and is not a day I thought any of us would ever see in this country. I can only really empathise and commiserate. But if staff are going to have to walk away from the education sector and with schools being short staffed and potentially medical facilities I can see this potentially being the straw that breaks the camel's back. Especially if you piss off a number of parents and educators who are undermanned and under resourced.
I'm sorry your partner is fucking idiot though. Not much any of us can do about that.
I naively thought the worst I would see in this country would be the earthquakes or that asshole murdering those people in the mosques. I thought the pony tail fondling banker would be the worst prime minister since Muldoon, but boy was I wrong. I should not be able to compare a prime minister to Muldoon and have the current leader look worse. This should not be possible yet somehow she's managing it every single day. At least Muldoon had the balls to insult his opponents to their faces.
It's not just the prime minister, it the majority of parliament, ministries and pretty much every journalist rooting for this insanity and painting anyone who publicly wants no part of it as a fucking criminal or extremist. These morons are going to fundamentally fuck up our country even further than any of us might have imagined and when they do, they're
But hey - there is light at the end of the tunnel.
You and I know people are getting sick of her shit, and fucking up the education and health sectors for the sake of pushing experimental drugs is only going to ramp up disgust with current government. Those left working in those sectors are going to rushed off their feet and if the dark winter theory holds any water it's going to be bad, with the numbers coming out of the UK and the reports about full ER's in the US, I'd wager it holds some water.
I imagine the protests will continue as well as they decide to further ruin people's lives and livelihoods for some absolutely insane reasons.
But remember the media in NSW was also super chummy with Gladys before she fell on her sword and whenever I speak politics with anyone these days I can't say anyone is impressed. I had a 20 minute chat yesterday on how much of roller-coaster it would be to have David Seymour in charge from a now former lifelong Labour voter. The polls don't appear to be doing her favours either.
Finally certain Canadian provinces rolled back the mandates on health care workers, and the in the US Brandon's ability to force mandates is being challenged everyday by more and more states. Plus the only way it looks like they can enforce any of this is through snitching.
There's not many Covid deaths in Kiwiland, so nightly news will tend to report on each one.
This guy was shot dead ... then tested positive posthumously ... then was added as a Covid death the following week.
Supposedly there will be a review, but I wonder if this actually occurs in countries where the death count is high (or vested interests want to pump up the recorded levels)
It's like recording the guilty verdict before the trial starts
Numbers are at all time highs, Twitter-NPCs are close to self-immolation in the streets to beg the all-loving government to just DO SOMETHING, preferably something that involves putting the nasty unvaccinated into camps and locking everyone else away until the evil virus is gone.
I think I'll improve my mental health by focusing on how these people are basically self-destructing their own psyche by their insane fear-consumption over the last year and a half. These people can't go back, and if somehow the "pandemic" is ever ended, I think then we'll see an even bigger rise in suicides. And I will enjoy that.

Of course it does. Like the vid says, the WHO recommends recording any death accompanied by a covid infection as a covid death. Most countries also record any death within a month of a positive test as a corona death, regardless of actual cause.
In the UK there have been admissions that up to a quarter of recorded covid deaths in a given week were death from other causes (accompanied by typical deboonks of the claim only being valid for the studied periods and somehow not representative of the whole pandemic, which wasn't studied, shut up and go back to being afraid). Generally speaking when such an admission occurs, it's usually a very conservative estimate, and combined with other information (such the flu disappearing entirely, other causes of death going down in official statistics and so on) it's likely that at least half the deaths recorded as covid deaths were nothing of the sort.
Remember that hypothetical person I told you about who went to the party with vaxxies and then got weird night pain? Well she's been having A HELL OF A PERIOD THIS MONTH.
...Hypothetically.
This is why all the anti-vaxxers in this thread really need to bite the bullet, unless this woman is using "party" as a euphemism for raw anal orgy then just using the same toilet seats and congregating around those people are basically making you vaxxed, beyond that i highly doubt the married people here such as @Virgo and @Mrs.addams are/have been withholding any phsycial affection from their significant others nor are planning on doing it for the next 5 years. the vax is already inside you and everyone else. Honestly that helps clear up a lot of why they keep demanding others get vaxxed and the weird logic of "my vax works when you get it too" as well as all those absurd lifespans for the virus, covid might not be able to live a week on a surface, but the shot will. but since they already showed how difficult it would be to keep up that level of clean back in 2020 now no one is really into doing it.
also is anyone checking on israel? i think that most people are already a year into their vax and somehow not a lot of vax-deaths, certainly not even 1% despite somehow vax-attacks hitting 60% of the population during previous RNA trials, so obviously people like @Drain Todger might actually be the demented idiots the average NPC claims. Obviously it was a huge risk, but unless we start hearing about israeli hospitals getting overwhelmed next year its clear the vax isn't as bad as we here made it out to be.
even beyond that "heart problems" can be anything from death to needing to eat healthier foods, so unless someone can give me some realistic hard data on what the supposed death/hospitalization rate was to be for people 1 year post-vax i'm going to presume many here have been had

About Israel, I will repeat myself: we need to wait till February to see if the vax worked. So far last wave had certainly more cases than the wave in summer 2020. The virus is seasonal and in November 2020 they also had close to zero deaths.
On another topic:
Someone mentioned previously how the situation makes him lose trust in doctors. I don't respect doctors since my prep school where I saw what type of personality wants to become a doctor. It's a type of a person who is status hungry, loves rote learning, and doing what they are told to do. Above average intelligence, but not at the gifted level. Not exactly midwits, but definitely not creative geniuses. And most of the time it's fine, because we don't need creative geniuses losing their gifts for this vocation. However, in the face of pharmacracy they are absolutely helpless, because the same set of traits makes it impossible to resist insane pharmakrats, and some of them (the smartest and the most honest) end up being tormented by internal conflict.

Also add the ones who might do self-immolation if and when the jury said then Kyle Rittenhouse is not guilty. Still, the way they beg the all-loving government, we could said then government might be a drug as bad as crack, cocaine and LSD.

This is one area where nationalised healthcare wins hands down. The budget-consciousness of government-appointed accountants massively outpaces the abilities of pharmaceuticals salesmen. There are weak points and there are ways to sidestep (as is obvious from the current insanity), but you don't generally get things like the opiates crisis in a system where pharma isn't able to do direct sales pitches to GPs and where prescription medicines can't be directly advertised to the public.

We dont actually know what was injected into people in different countries. Israelis may well have received entirely different and safer batches from the rest of the world. Considering most of the top pharma guys are Jewish, it would make sense that, if they know the clot shots are bad, they would make sure their safest or at least some inert batches head toward Israel. Pretty sure a lot of folks are gonna be rightly skeptical of Israeli data.
Reminder these tables list infection, hospitalisation and deaths per 100,000 of population. "Unadjusted" simply means we should think about other factors (such as the vaccinated being more likely to get tested or not having natural immunity) which are not collated in the report.
For the majority of the adult population the vaccinated are now 2.5 times MORE likely to catch Covid than the unvaxxed. Is this normal for vaccines? I'm no medical historian but I wouldn't have thought so.
The vaccinated being more prone to infection has been showing up in the numbers for months now.
Here are the actual unadjusted mortality numbers. 3430 people died in the 4 week reporting period. 3089 of the deaths were among the over 60's. that's 90%. Remember how they keep telling us that Delta Covid is targeting the young, pregnant women and children? Yes they're lying about that as well. Delta Covid is exactly the same as all the other Covids, it knocks off the old and deathfats, end of story.
2662 of the dead boomers have had the vaxx which is 86% of all deaths among the over 60's and 78% of all deaths in the entire population. Is this normal for vaccines?
Prevalence of N-antibodies (the red line) in the population has completely flat-lined for the past 8 weeks in the face of the largest outbreak of Covid since the pandemic was declared last year. N-antibodies are produced as part of the normal immune response to an actual infection. It can now be confirmed that the vaccinated cannot mount a proper immune response when challenged by the virus.
Note that there is rampant transmission and spread among the vaccinated so this can in no way be explained by the vaccines protecting them from infection
The under 30 demographic can and should be disregarded in terms of infection risk as the rates of hospitlalisation and death among younger people is so low that Covid doesn't even meet the criteria of a bad flu for this age group.
513,019 people over the age of 30 reported a positive Covid test in the 4 week reporting period of which 429.214 had received the vaccine, 84% of all cases in the over 30's.
In the context of very high vaccine coverage in the population, even with a highly effective vaccine, it is expected that a large proportion of cases, hospitalisations and deaths would occur in vaccinated individuals, simply because a larger proportion of the population are vaccinated than unvaccinated and no vaccine is 100% effective.
A "highly effective" vaccine does not make the vaccinated more prone to infection from a virus. Am I taking crazy pills here?
This is especially true because vaccination has been prioritised in individuals who are more susceptible or more at risk of severe disease. Individuals in risk groups may also be more at risk of hospitalisation or death due to non-COVID-19 causes, and thus may be hospitalised or die with COVID-19 rather than because of COVID-19.
