A funny thing happened to me the other day. I was talking to a former coworker about why I think mass immigration into the country is harmful in many ways. We had a friendly exchange, and I thought the conversation was going well. Eventually, she said she enjoys talking about politics, which shocked me. To me, how is that political? It's not like anyone voted on it, and nobody knew about it until far too late. But somehow, even expressing concern about it is a Republican thing to do?
I find the same line of logic when it comes to being injected with chemicals. Most people I know frame it as a political position, not as a question of personal health and safety in the least (never mind concepts like informed consent and bodily autonomy, which many of them are passionate about when it comes to reproductive rights).
I really take offense at being called an anti-vaxxer, even though that's exactly how most people I know would describe me. I've taken more injections than most people I know, especially during my time in the military. It wasn't until I kept getting incredibly sick from the mRNA injections that I stopped taking them and started talking about what I'd learned, including how I nearly died and the thousands of dollars in medical bills I had to pay out of pocket (I don't make much money). Once again, the people I tried to share this with think I'm taking a political stance, and once again I'm stunned. It's the same discussion I had with my friend about immigration, as if somehow these things were voted on and represent a democratic consensus (never mind how unconstitutional it is :-P).
The funny thing is, my friends are meticulous about organic food and clean water. They invest heavily in air filters for their homes and make sure they get good exercise. They're obsessed with their health and their food, yet something like vaccines is completely off limits, and bringing it up can instantly get you cut from the invite list for the next cocktail party.
I was hanging out with my friends at a campout (I'm the token anti-vax friend in the group), and they were talking about the weirdos who don't like fluoride in the water. Being one of those people, I mentioned, nonchalantly, that the fluoride in their drinking water is an industrial byproduct of fertilizer production. I quickly realized they had no idea where the fluoride came from, never mind the history behind it or the studies showing neurological effects, especially in children.
The same is true with vaccines. They have no idea what's in them. When I used to get pushback about my views (I keep quiet about the topic now, but I used to be more vocal), I would ask if they knew any of the ingredients, or the difference between mRNA and traditional vaccines. Never mind the CDC changing the definition of "vaccine" in 2021 :-P
What I find surprising is that I'm still running into this same line of logic in 2026. If I hung out with my friends and talked about how horrible Russell Brand is for whatever it was he did two decades ago, I could spend hours in their good graces. If I mentioned how a few scientists doing gain-of-function research wiped out a small percentage of the human population, then got a presidential pardon and now live nice, comfy lives, I would get walked out on. If I mentioned how society locked down and lives were destroyed over mask mandates and social distancing rules that were admittedly "made up," never mind that it went against every protocol in history on how to handle such events, I am once again taking a political stance.
So, how did we get to this place? How did we become so blindly adherent to a technology like vaccines? I'd argue it's the same reason we don't fear flying. If you ever go on a flight, you'll often see little kids on the plane who have never flown before. Do they scream in terror as the plane takes off? No, because everyone around them is perfectly calm. In fact, if a grown adult started freaking out, he would be considered a liability and probably restrained or kicked off. It's the same logic when it comes to vaccines, except it's all marketing. We are told they are safe and effective, backed by research done by the very companies that make billions off the product. That's what I consider the revolving door of all revolving doors. It's one revolving door to rule them all.
Someone I've come to really appreciate over the last year is Michael Yon. He recently had his first child, he's over in Substack land, and he often talks about Amanita muscaria (fly agaric) and how there are subliminal messages in children's shows and video games (e.g., Mario) that cause kids to see psychedelics as normal. I think the same thing is happening when it comes to other drugs, such as pharmaceuticals and injections. Next time you watch a TV show on Netflix, HBO, hulu, whatever, and count how many times they smoke, drink, take pills, and get injections, I bet you will hit double digits within a half hour.
I think it's because of a life time of conditioning and subliminal messaging is the reason why I was so vehemently rejected by my friend groups for even mentioning how damaging the mRNA shots were to me. Like a panicked person on a plane, they saw my message as a risk to the wider society. It's why sane people who care deeply about their health, behave in such a way where body autonmy stops being a consideration. That it's a moral good to listen to the guy in the lab coat, to always unquestioningly inject what you are told.
It's actually a genius psychological trick, in my humble opinion. Just like I think the mRNA shots, with lipid nanoparticles that turn your body into a spike protein factory, are genius too, in a very dark, evil way. Where's the off switch to said factory? If it stays in the arm, then why is myocarditis a known side effect (among the many hundreds of others)?
The funny thing is, I am kinda curious how many of those I hung out with at the camping trip will start buying their water double distilled, like I do, while never mentioning it to anyone. I bet a lot of them never got boosters but said they did and probably even lie today about getting them. No, never mind, I wouldn't go that far :-P
We have "cartesian blinders being put on us so that we are trying to make sense out of scraps of information and hints." - @bretweinstein
WEINSTEIN: I mean, even if you have your villains who are engaged in the behavior that motivated this war in Iran, even if that's the story, presumably most of the people in the path of these ferocious bombings that he is describing are not deserving of going back to the Stone Age.
In fact, I distinctly remember him telling us that part of what we were up to was liberating the people of Iran from their tyrannical regime.
So if it's the tyrannical regime that justifies the ferocious bombing, then it's a tragedy that other people are going to be sent back to the Stone Ages with them. Right?
HEYING: It's it's not a narrative. It's an incoherent set of talking points.
WEINSTEIN: Yeah, it's a kind of cheerleading that is completely inappropriate from the perspective of the president.
Bret Weinstein discusses the Trump administrations "back to the stone age" recent remarks in the latest episode of The Evolutionary Lens, Episode 320 "Are we back in the stone age?" on DarkHorse.
Bret Weinstein explains, "If you stop businesses from starting here, and if you drive people so that they move elsewhere—even though it's difficult to do—then the point is the tax base dries up, which then forces you to become even more predatory for the people who stayed.
And that's really the thing, right? They're setting themselves up so that they have to go after more and more people, because the people who are starting new businesses are not going to do it here."
I’ll admit it. I was one of those dirty Candace Owens fans. Kinda still am, maybe? Still making sense of what is happening.
What hooked me was her series on French President Macron’s wife, and specifically her penis, built on the reporting of Xavier Poussard. An American podcaster taking on the president of France over his wife’s anatomy. I thought it was the most American gangster thing I’d ever seen. I was in.
For a while, watching Candace felt like watching Jordan Peterson in the early days, or Joe Rogan before he got involved with the gambling industry, or DarkHorse, of course, of course. You know, a dissident speaking truth.
Then, almost overnight, it all fell apart.
The fight that made no sense
Here’s the setup. Candace was heading into maternity leave pregnant with her fifth child, a boy she announced back in June. Meanwhile, a fight was brewing that seemingly had nothing to do with her....
@bretweinstein & @heatherheying it's with much respect that I am reaching out in not-so-quiet desperation.
Our country is going to heck in a handbasket, you know this...
I most generically identify as a libertarian, an artist, an inventor, and perhaps a philosopher if I'm feeling particularly vain.
I've been building the infrastructure for what i believe the founding fathers would have given us if they had access to blockchain technology.
It is my E=MC2 of governance. there are only 3 laws, no taxes, incentives where they belong, radical transparency, and data driven justice.
I think it would be best for you to just go see it for yourself (note: rome wasnt built in a day)
I'll answer any questions pending a reply
Go to :
I'm all in on saving this place, we might just have to give up on the name "America", or get enough motivation to commandeer it (allegedly). I really don't care either way...
Anyway, get back to me!
Stay safe
I am trying to pass the Arizona Aviation Reporting and Scientific Inquiry Protection Act
And looking for supporters. The mission is simple: ensure that individuals can lawfully report unidentified aerial phenomena or pursue legitimate scientific research without risking their employment, professional credentials, or employer-controlled retirement benefits solely for doing so.
Starting at the state level offers a more tactical and achievable path than attempting to establish comprehensive federal protections. Arizona could serve as a starting point, with the potential for similar legislation to be introduced in other states.
Arizona is my home. I know the state, its communities, and its petitioning landscape well. It also has a long history of aerospace development, aviation operations, astronomical research, and scientific discovery.
The institutions and communities that could potentially benefit from such protections include:
Luke Air Force Base, its personnel, and surrounding aviation operations
