Shining Light into Darkness

Championing the return of critical thinking.

In my last post, I carefully waded into the troubled world of fractured health care and fraudulent finances. Thank you for the many encouraging comments. It seems I struck a positive chord. It’s delicate territory. I just talked to a neighbor here… or tried to. The door slammed shut the moment we ventured 2 degrees away from the official narrative. I quickly changed the subject.

Why am I writing about this now? Because my interest is mental health and I’ve come to understand that the problem is not primarily with individuals exhibiting symptoms like bipolar disorder, depression, etc. but with society itself. We’re living in a madhouse. This has been enabled by our own malaise, mutely allowing those in leadership positions we trust to use their positions to enrich themselves and increase their power over us. Their failure and our failure to hold them accountable has created a culture of confusion.

When I realized this years ago, I had to face that I just didn’t want to focus on that kind of stuff. My dad used to rail against evil doers and I remember how impotent he obviously felt. I didn’t want to be like him. So I chose the path of love, putting my attention on the positive. I eventually joined an organization called the Emissaries of Divine Light. But what I and my well meaning friends failed to fully grasp was that darkness doesn’t go away until you shine a light into it, inform yourself, and take a stand for light. Just “being the light” is not enough if that means mutely obeying dark manipulators in ways that harm us and our children.

Before we wade into the shadows here, let’s celebrate one bright spot on the horizon, someone who seems to model an inspirational example of light-dark balance.

Robert Kennedy Jr, an attorney who is running for president as an Independent, worked for 33 years with the Hudson Riverkeeper project, helping to restore it from generations of industrial degradation and civic neglect. He helped grow 350 organizations around the world protecting the health of rivers. He is well respected internationally for that work, but this (curiously) changed when he took a stand for children. He founded The Children’s Defense Fund in response to mothers who petitioned him about harm that had come to their children from pharmaceutical drug side effects.

In 2021 he wrote and published The Real Anthony Fauci, exposing what I believe will come to be known as the greatest medical fraud and catastrophe in American history. Despite a total black out of the book and radical condemnation of both the author and his work, with zero reviews in the usual publications, the book has sold over a million copies, spent 20 weeks on the New York Times best seller list, and has over 25,000 positive reviews on Amazon, achieving an unheard of perfect 5 rating. While authorities have scorned the work and ridiculed Kennedy’s research, and some in his family have virtually disowned him, not a single law suit has been filed. In other words, what he wrote is, apparently, true. You can buy the book here. I’ve read it and it woke me up.

What woke me up more recently was this piece (edited for brevity), reporting on a young girl whose mother registered her for Pfizer’s COVID-19 clinical trial for 12 to 15-year-olds. “A healthy 12-year-old girl prior to the trial, Maddie loved to dance, play soccer and spend time with her friends.

“Maddie received her second dose January 20, 2021. Within 12 hours, frightful symptoms set in. Electric shocks were shooting up her spine and it felt like her heart was being “ripped out.”

“She suffered chest and abdominal pains. Her toes and fingers turned white and ice cold. In short order, she lost feeling in her legs and could no longer walk. She started passing out and lost her swallow reflex.

“Despite what happened to Maddie, Pfizer announced the children’s trial had been a success, and that their COVID shot had a “favorable safety profile.” Pfizer described Maddie’s side effects as “functional abdominal pain,”³ even though she was wheelchair bound and couldn’t even swallow food.

“Maddie has now been diagnosed with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) — a rare autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks and destroys the myelin sheaths around nerve cells. Maddie has not received any help — financial or medical — from Pfizer, the FDA or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

“When asked what her daughter’s ordeal has taught her, her mother says it has opened her eyes. She used to trust government officials, doctors and hospitals, but “What I thought they were is not what they are,” she says.”

Many of us no longer trust those in charge. We’ve witnessed first hand how the heads of medical agencies and government officials lie straight into the camera without blinking. Pharmaceutical companies continue to reap landfall profits while harming the very people they promise to protect. And mainstream media hides truth and demonizes truth-tellers.

When we hear the term “safe and effective” applied to a new medicine, we might remember that this is the same term that was applied to many other medicines for decades.

Remember the Thalidomide scandal? That drug, also promoted as safe and effective, caused deformities in thousands of babies born to mothers who took the drug. The 6,000 survivors today do remember, especially that the manufacturer waited two years after knowing about the damage before withdrawing the drug, under pressure, and have offered only weak apologies without an admission of wrong doing and they haven’t written big checks. See a few of the old ads here for Thalidomide, branded as Distaval.

The NIH National Library of medicine has “identified 462 medicinal products that were withdrawn from the market between 1953 and 2013, the most common reason being hepatotoxicity.” In many cases, dangerous side effects were well known to manufacturers early on and pharmaceutical companies have been fined over 31 billion dollars over an 11 year stretch for deceitful business practices.

Yet, somehow, we were shamed and ridiculed for “hesitancy.”

Remember “critical thinking?” This used to be normal in the land of free speech. Now we’re told “Don’t do your own research.” That’s like telling a friend you’re buying a used car and hearing, “Well, don’t check it out, just buy it.”

What happens the next time we’re ordered to do something without our full consent, especially when we believe it might be unsafe for us and our children? Do we take a stand, or not?

Will we take a stand when there are potentially serious repercussions to our personal lives? Some doctors who reminded us that Vitamin D helps our immune systems resist C lost their licenses. What’s truly shameful is the millions of other doctors who knew this was wrong stood by and said nothing. I fired my own MD when he failed to speak up. Those truth telling doctors weren’t anti-V’s, they were simply repeating common knowledge. Vitamin D is hardly controversial but it was virtually outlawed. Remember? Meanwhile, “… researchers at the University of Chicago Medicine recently found a link between vitamin D deficiency and the likelihood of being infected with Covid-19.”

Likewise, millions of us said nothing when churches were closed while liquor stores and strip clubs remained open, as did big box stores while local businesses were shuttered. I just heard that 70% of restaurants in LA that closed have never re-opened.

Some people reluctantly got a shot, just to keep jobs or visit a relative or travel. And some celebrity’s used their platforms to ridicule those who refused to comply. Remember talk show host Jimmy Kimmel’s infamous comment? Here’s the original video, zip forward to 2:33.

In case you don’t watch the 10 second clip, here’s what he said about hospitals treating sick people: “Vaccinated person having a heart attack? Yes, come right in. We'll take care of you. Unvaccinated guy who gobbled horse goo? Rest in peace, wheezy."

This after he recently wept while describing his son getting hospital treatment for a heart condition (which Kimmel could afford because he is rich ) and begging that affordable health care be available for all. What happened to that guy?

More important, what happened to you? What happened to me? What happened to all of us starry eyed “liberals” who used to think for ourselves? I remember driving past a protest in Ashland, Oregon where women carried signs declaring My Body My Choice, advocating for legal and unrestricted access to abortions. Amongst them were many who simultaneously called those who chose not to get an untested medicine horrible names and, in one case, suggested they be sent to prison for life.

How is honoring the Nuremberg code a behavior to punish? Over 70 years old now, here’s how it began: “The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.

“This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, overreaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision.

So much for enforcing the Nuremberg Code in the 21st century.

Now, as the mainstream news is forced to admit that many of the “conspiracy theories” have proven true and society has been wrecked, where’s the apologies? Dead silence. Where’s the resolve to never let this happen again? Not only is that absent, we have instead the methodical drip feeding of yet more fear porn about the next “inevitable” pandemic and propaganda urging countries to surrender their sovereignty to the WHO (unelected rich people) so they can declare a global emergency whenever they want and enforce their draconian agenda on all of us, including mandatory medical intervention, without our informed consent. They get to decide what’s best for us? Why? Read the propaganda preparing the way here.

Sigh.

So, are we able to face this darkness, to wake up to how dangerous this is, to do more than nod and turn our heads… and still choose light? Clue: light becomes visible when it shines in darkness.

Despite our historic failings, we can learn from the recent past and prepare for what’s probably coming - more oppression. But that’s not all that’s coming. “We” are not a fringe minority anymore and we are not crazies. We are responsible, critical thinkers, daring to take a stand for common sense. We are many, many more than is believed by those who are blithely trampling our right to choose. They are not as smart as they think and we are more powerful than they believe. Because, as the Blues Brothers said, “We’re on a mission from God!”

“We” will not mutely comply and obey again. Those days are over, right? Critical thinking is normal and settled science is propaganda. Questioning, skepticism, doubt, research - ideally without bias - these are principles that live at the heart of true science. Otherwise, the earth would still be flat. That was once settled science too and those who dared suggest that the earth was round were punished.

We can take our stand peacefully, lovingly. This isn’t about fighting, it’s about standing in our sovereignty and being OK with what happens as a result of our stand. When enough of us do this, I wonder what happens? Perhaps there’s a positive tipping point in our future. I believe so. I believe in us, in humans, an essentially good species, despite the mentally ill outliers.

Let’s prove the power of Love.

Spread the word.
