Keep notes for how the invisible adversary is going after Joe Rogan. First it was "horse dewormer", then "misinformation". After that it was "racism". These things are not happening at random. The adversary is treating this as a deathmatch. Now remember others similarly smeared.

Given the amount of fact checking Joe Rogan gets by the mainstream press, vs what the CDC gets, as well what each has to gain/lose by propagating falsehoods, you should expect what Joe Rogan says to be a lot more accurate than what the CDC says. Just the world we live in. ๐Ÿคท

Here's why they're having a hard time articulating the reason why vaccines cause myo/pericarditis. It's a catch 22. If they blame it on the spike protein, as Paul Offit recently did, then the question of lab leak becomes incredibly important. We need to understand why the spike

Let's clear this up: The myocarditis and spike toxicity data means those who were hesitant were justified. The "safe and effective" crowd was wrong. Admitting this is table stakes to entering the conversation. To say "well, we spaced out the doses, now STFU and take it" is.. ๐Ÿ™„

Control promises efficiency, safety, while building an ever greater risk of inescapable systemic failure. Like picking up pennies on train tracks, hoping this is not your unlucky day. Seeing them fail with COVID, are these the people we will entrust with control of our future?

Who killed the lab leak hypothesis? Jeremy Farrar got news of the outbreak early, he hand-picked experts to advise world leaders, and made sure institutions spoke as one: "There was no leak, the virus emerged naturally". On 2019's last day, the head of China's CDC called him...

To coin a term, this FDA tweet was a "narrative scaffold". After the narrative solidifies, it doesn't matter if the scaffold is taken down. Nobody will remember how things started anyway. It's a synchronization signal for the elites to line up and promote the approved

Taking a screenshot of the tweet FDA now has to delete after being taken to court. Not much consolation, the damage is already done, but a symbolic win nonetheless. FDA is not allowed to give medical advice and never was. They're not allowed to substitute your doctor.

If Elon had just released an experimental vaccine on a few billion people and made up the justification as he went along, the bluecheck crowd would have found a way to justify it. Instead, he had to mess with Twitter, and that is so irresponsible they will never forgive him.

The way Sam talks about institutions and expert opinion confirms my sense that the true split of the heterodox world was between those defending the institutions and those who defend the truth. When the institutions separated from the truth, we saw who was who.

I'm coming to the conclusion that our civilization would greatly benefit if the predictive statements our experts and regulators were being recorded so their track record can be evaluated as needed. Right now they act as if predicting wrong costs nothing, because it does.
