At some point I expect a person who knows he or she has been poisoned, is dying, and decides to find the people responsible, and beat them or something, and it'll make the news.

Or 'right-wing' and/or 'white supremacist' extremists. Or whatever, I suppose.

If one is sick thinking they will die of this experiment on a hospital bed one won't care what they are being called. The spells are cast to keep people from acting out, once the spell is broken the experiment will be over.

I suspect that many people will also get very angry, with perhaps the inner-city hipster folks in the vanguard: they try to live 'right', as in, be vegan, bike, scold everyone who drives a car etc.--only to figure out that they received gene therapy products.

Oh, the irony…

Sadly, those categories are more likely to demand /more/ of the same instead. Not only sunk cost fallacy but the vindicitiveness of their basic underlying personality profile: if they can't get their way and reality doesn't comply?

Burn everything for everyone! A certain scene in 'Der Untergang' with actor Bruno Ranz ranting and believing his own lies and propaganda comes to mind - 'Gröfaz' exemplifies the modern woke hipster perfectly, personality wise.

Magical thinking cannot be combatted with rationale from outside the magical paradigm after all.

No one knows how it ends, the odds are it'll be traumatic.

Brand them what they want. The trend kicks off at that point.

Branding sounds good…as in: with hot iron bars, preferably, I suggest.

Very good piece!

I also caught the Plusminus report (featuring an impressive old school doctor 74 refusing to kowtow to official takking points) and the Focus article (in the same week?)

Those links were widely shared but I don't think it makes much of a difference to most who either don't want to know or are already content with vaccine safety reports.

Another interesting data point is Berlin Fire Fighter deployments because of cardiac issues. There has been a considerable rise in such callouts over the past year and now even a fire fighter union has asked the PEI to investigate a possible vaccine connection . (There had already been an enquiry made by a city council politician but it resulted in an obfuscatory response).

Ah, interesting--I didn't spot the Berlin FF brigade issue, thanks for bringing it up.

Over here, two weeks ago, the national healthcare services changed their policy: no more direct GP access without calling a hotline first.

You never guess what happened next…being 'denied' access to their GP, Norwegians now flood (storm) the ERs…

When will we ever learn…?

Nein.

The media are their tools. So they will use them to manipulate the masses "on the way up and on the way down." Like controlling the share markets and political parties. No pros would leave 50% to chance!

My tinfoil-sense is tingling re: media acting. If my guess is right, the top brass in German politics are people of Merkel's generation or one generation younger, and in no particular hurry to move.

So some of the "Young Turks" (meaning 45-55 years of age approx.) both in parties, agencies and civil services are in conscious concert or just as a general expression of zeitgeist talking to media about what a complete shambles the entire response has been in the reality behind the closed doors of cabinet meetings etc.

So that the media can generate enough popular badwill towards the older figureheads/leaders, making the parties ask them t step down as to take the blame with them, leaving vacancies up top for the new guard to fill.

Could be, this is actually happening in the media too - there's no shortage of dinosaurs there, pulling strings and annointing successors behind the scenes both in the business end of the pool as well as in actual reporting and writing.

Speculating of cours, but what else is there to do but that and hope?

Aloha PolarNinja,

thanks for your kind words: I'm very certain to be enjoying the area.

As to your comment: I suspect that the MSM will try t deflect their share of the blame by shrieking ever more loudly about, well, virtually everyone involved (but themselves). It's self-preservation at its worst.
