Thanks. I’m on his substack. I go to conclusions as well. 😁👍🏻 The science is often way over my head—that’s why the football play Del illustrated worked so well on me. 🤔😂 Yes.

The new/not new battlefronts of the planetwide attacks on civilization is the biggest threat now and maybe the hardest to convey to the masses who are still in the mode of saving their personal butts from a “big bad virus” and not seeing the evil termites nibbling away at the foundations of their very ability to live a full life. That’s what tptb want. Your whole life.
Same with el gato malo. His technical posts are over my head as well. I will read and re-read and try to follow but my statistical analysis skills ended at Statistics 101 in college. Think he is at the PhD level, lol.
Yes, one of the few silver linings of this whole mess is that my knowledge and understanding (and skepticism) of the medical establishment and basic science has grown exponentially in the last 3 years. I've done business research for business and strategic planning for a living for 20+ years, and have had biotech clients but never really dug into the actual science. Always just approached from the business angle. Now see the whole business model for a lot of these companies is built on a house of cards.
By late summer of 2021 my ENTIRE worldview was blown to smithereens. I had some sleepless nights for sure. Nothing was what I had believed and counted on—including some family members. I was in tatters for some time.
Yes, lots of convos on the C&C comment threads over this very thing. Grateful for this blog and the comment family as we all have similar stories. For me it was Spring of 2020 as I had lots of fights with family and friends over the holes in the narrative. Lost my best friend of over 30 years over all this and had no income for months (self employed) so lots of time for self-introspection and finding a new way forward. New tribe, better vision, and better action plans today but it was painful at the time.
So many lost so much from the very beginning. I’m a senior and as my Bible group sat outside nobody seemed to recognize the sacrifices being made. We seniors weren’t really dealing with the same economic damage. I and my hubby made more $ in our investments. (Until Biden. ) The businesses closed. The struggles. The damage to children. Thrown out of our church building FGS. The shattering of relationships. So much. The lies became clear to me by the autumn. They didn’t seem to care. I was shamed eventually and now they prattle on about getting Covid again and getting their boosters. Something has disappeared between their ears. Your last sentence says it all. I have a new community.
Yes, the fact that so many churches caved to this, mine included, was perhaps the greatest disappointment of all of this. Especially when the pastor preached 'fear not' sermons while complying with county mask mandates and distance protocols.

Same for me with el 🐈⬛ Igor’s I can understand a bit better. But my knowledge of immunology has grown quite a bit.
