Spot on with your analysis of Scott Adams' "vaccine regret" message. However, my heart is constantly saddened by the fact my precious, once healthy sons and grands have ALL been JABBED--multiple times--and my youngest son was BOOSTED - I raised them to be critical thinkers--and then they married women who "follow the science" (which means the mindless boobs who parrot the official narrative). I just pray for them constantly - and for our world - that they would become "COMMON SENSE ADVOCATES" as opposed to MINDLESS SHEEPLE!!

I’m so sorry, Sharon, and I completely empathize. My mom was coerced by her doctors into getting the first two Moderna shots—despite her reluctance and my providing her with counter-narrative research (this was during the first month of the rollout, so there was minimal data available but enough to give one pause). Fortunately, she refused to get the booster and they have stopped pressuring her, but I now have a perpetual dark cloud hanging over me and can only hope she has escaped serious repercussions.

I was so sick of hearing the perpetual " have you had the covid vaccine" question by every nurse and doctor me and my then 86 year old mother saw. ( We did not). At one point I remember that when my mom answered "no" to the male nurse when being checked into the ER for something unrelated, he responded "good" while typing away on his computer! I was bowled over and I told him. He said he had to get it because he worked for the hospital. 😢

My 93 year old healthy mom has never had a vax in her entire life but my sister, who lives in the same city, accompanies her to all her appointments and has told the office manager of the clinic that she will not be taking any vaxxes nor should they ask her. In addition, she has told them she will not wear a mask for her appointments as it’s distracting to her, uncomfortable and with age-related hearing loss, does not allow her to focus on instructions. It hasn’t been an issue since my sister set the boundaries and I urge others to be bold and stand up for your elderly parents who could be easily manipulated.

You are SO fortunate!

My sister, geographically closer, made early jab appointments for my 90 year old manipulable mother. I pray a lot. Fantasize about raking my sister over the coals but it will likely have to stay in that realm. Won’t do any good. So so much anger and, underneath, unspeakable sadness.

Yep, lots o’ prayer. Treasure your like minded sister!!!!!!

Yes I know I am very fortunate. Prior to moving away from my hometown where my mom lives I handled all her healthcare needs after my dad passed away 24 years ago. My siblings all agreed because I was the only person in the family who had a career in healthcare. But my sister took over after I moved and has been proactive and very diligent in helping my mom get what she needs and not coerced into something she doesn’t need or want. I will pray for all those out there who aren’t as fortunate as our family to be on the same page in these trying times.

My situation is the same Heterodox. Vigilant prayers for my 92 yo MIL. Jabbed at least 2x, probably more. Her health has declined fast, but without a doubt, her impending death will be attributed to "old age" only.

I’m hoping either you, Matthew Crawford or Jeff from Covid and Covid will do a video response back to that worthless excuse of an excuse. I would do it but I have no following and am not eloquent. But, seriously one of you might want to consider it. What a blessing that would be. And, we can’t let him get away with saying we didn’t take the clot shot cause we mistrusted Uncle Sam. It had little to do with that. Moving forward though, never doing/believing anything the government or public health says!!! EVER. I will continue to try to be my own health advocate. There’s plenty of info out there on how to be healthy, cure/reverse disease. Unless of course one had been triple vaccinated. And, in that case, (and this is probably the case with Mr. Adams) I have pity on those people and cannot imagine what it must be like wondering every day if you can do things like play pickelball with the grandkids without dropping dead.

I can so relate. Two of my four stood strong against the manipulation and coercion, but two succumbed to the pressure and I can only pray for their protection. I have several vaccine injured friends who regret their decision but, for various reasons (jobs, travel, family pressure) accepted the “science.” It’s heartbreaking and not a competition but the sad reality of how badly people were deceived

I never truly appreciated the gift of "common sense" that I was given from birth--until NOW! My family was poor financially--but WEALTHY in the spiritual gifts mentioned in Scripture. We had our frailties, of course, but our love of TRUTH and JUSTICE has stood the test of time for me and those I love!

My daughter owns a small but busy business with many customers of her own millenial age. She did all the research very early on and told us not to get it. She has always been a sceptical individual. Anyway, since the covid vaccine seems to be the only thing so many wanted to discuss, and often boast about, early on, she said that many of her customers said that their grandparents died very shortly *after* the shot!

I know - too many stories just like this one. You have seen that video of Bill Gates speaking at a TEDS conference in 2010, haven't you, Angela? He clearly says, "With our vaccines and healthcare system we can achieve "net zero carbon emissions" by 2030". This guy is truly a SOCIOPATH and his BILLIONS have been spent to implement his "pet project" of EUGENICS (his father ran Planned Parenthood under that doctrine for many years). I saw the video about 2 years ago with my own eyes!! I don't know if it's still "up" on YouTube or not--my friend, Lenna (my true LIGHTHOUSE of information on the PLANdemic) shared it with me.

Thanks for this.

Did you know that the woman Vincent supposedly lost his mind over (he was already suffering from paroxysms of mental illness, we can’t know for sure what) was a prostitute? His aim was to save her. Set up house. She apparently had a more grounded view of reality. He was penniless, supported for most of his adult life by his brother, Theo. Tragedy, family and just plain human.

And yet, the art. Clouds, shadows, of mind, in life, and still bursts of brilliance marked by the same edges or depths of... psychosis? Then again, sometimes I wonder if some forms of mental illness are as “straightforward” as the piercing of the veil; they see beyond 5 sensory illusion, the real truth, to which the sane are insulated and blind. What do I know? (Not much! Practically nothing in fact!!)

Except perhaps that psychopathy when you have more money than you can spend is a very dangerous thing.

Sigh.

My son is in medical school and got the jab. Him and his girlfriend who works in Telehealth at a hospital. She is also in school to be a hospital administrator. You know the people that took money to kill your love ones for the betterment of the bottom line. My daughter she is in vet school, took the jabs and neither one of my kids thought to run this by me first. My oldest is a stay at home unjabbed mom. Her husband has been tripled jabbed. I think I’ve reached her. But I wonder about my 2 grandchildren living around a shedding father. Then my last child is still in college. Still unjabbed and promised me she wouldn’t get the clot shot. However.......... she wants to go to medical school too!!!!!! Talk about worries...... 4 kids, 2 were captured by the industry. 1 sees the message now, but doesn’t see the down the road effects this could have on her husband. 1 not captured but wanting to dive into the pool....... I feel like mothers of adult children need a support group. 🤣 I always look for comments from other moms of adult children in my position. Thanks for putting your comment out there. It’s good to not feel alone.

Van...do you recall in Scripture in one of the prophetic books (is it in Revelations?) it mentioned that God will send a "strong delusion" upon the world population--and if it were NOT for the "elect" (which I understood to be the 144,000 saved Jewish people) ALL humanity would be slain and damned to hell forever and ever. Perhaps this is a "trial run" of the "strong delusion"??? I cannot make ANY sense out of what the "younger people" refuse to SEE. Is it because of their brains being NUMBED by staring at a COMPUTER/DEVICE SCREEN almost 24/7? That might be it???

I can’t say I know exactly what you’re going through but I have four adult children. My oldest is in the military and married with kids so he took the shots. My second was in the national guard beat but he got a quote on quote shots. My third was in college in ROTC, and she told her commander that he was giving her an all unlawful order. And my fourth was in the National Guard and after two years still hasn’t shipped.  I come from a very long line of military and it’s just heartbreaking to see what they’ve done to the military.

'women who "follow the science" (which means the mindless boobs who parrot the official narrative)'

Yes, they parrot the official narrative because their social circle demands it of them. They fear most of all becoming a social outcast. They would literally rather die than become an outcast. And they probably will. But it's horrible that they would take their loved ones with them down the social acceptance rabbit hole.

I hope this isn't why my loved ones took that horrid jab--to be "socially acceptable". Because...and this is Scripture--this world is NOT our "home" when we have been saved by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. So everything that is "preached" by the "world power potentates" is NOT "gospel"--merely "propaganda". And the Holy Spirit guides the saved into ALL TRUTH!

Sorry to hear about your reality, Sharon. It seems a lonely place to be, doesn’t it. I think about all of my relatives (except my immediate family) and most close friends have had the shots. I wonder sometimes if I’ll start losing them one by one. What a maudlin thought!! My childhood friend has a terrible autoimmune problem, a friend’s daughter the same, my great nephew, 15, autistic, was just diagnosed with EOE - a long and unpronounceable disease which is in the autoimmune category. Several friends have Tinnitus and even after having experienced the symptom from the first shot, got the second. SMH. We are going to be very busy with our prayers.

All of these DISorders are attributable to the bioweapon "jab" - I read the daily newsletters of Dr. Robert Malone - one of the inventors of the mRNA platform (which he abandoned because it did NOT work as it was hoped it would--and this was over TWENTY YEARS ago. He has been vilified and discredited repeatedly in the MSM worldwide--and yet he and other courageous virologists, doctors and TRUE scientists keep PUSHING BACK.

My father, mother, sister, brother, sister-in-law, nephews, niece. All jabbed multiple times. Because I've been diagnosed with bipolar years ago (SSRI reaction) I have no credibility with any of my family. My brother is the smart, capable successful one who has a long work history with the pharmaceutical industry has been telling us all what to do since lockdown began in March. He made fun of me when I texted him about how we would never get our freedoms back and how strange things were going on all over the world in different places at the same time as if orchestrated. He said I was imagining things. I got mad and blocked him. (I needed time away. I was already on the verge of a breakdown and his mockery and accusations of "selfishness" made it worse.)

He's trying to get Mom to convince me to go on "meds" again--though they clouded my judgement and hampered my social skills. He said the way I quit talking to him for a time proves I need them. Mom mentioned this but knows not to press the issue. And she has seen what tardive dyskinesia looks like. He prefers not to because that might force him to leave his lucrative career.
