This really happened. While out for a walk I was joined by a neighbor with opposing views on just about everything. He is vaccinated. I am not. He was making the point that I am endangering myself and others. However, he segued into this idea that if I catch COVID I would get very sick where he could be walking around with COVID right now and not even know it. In that case, who is a greater danger to others???
Thank you again for the crucial support you are providing.
The greater danger depends on whatever CNN tells him it is, I guess 😅
For some reason, that reminded me of this article where this person basically says "yeah, my dad got the vaccine and still died of covid.. but it could have been worse if he hadnt gotten the vaccine.." 😐
Makes perfect sense to me. The hysteria over the “plandemic” is an orchestrated distraction so people don’t see what’s really happening. Wake up people! Australia is setting up camps to confine people they deem unsafe! Sound familiar? New Zealand locking down the whole country after ONE Covid case. There are some seriously dark forces at play here, I.e. The Great Reset. It’s not theory, it’s happening. Read their agenda for yourself. Resist and stand up for our rights. They can’t do it if we don’t let them. If you value your freedom, do not be intellectually lazy or complacent. We can unite and resist.
Totally agree with this common sense seems to be no longer present in most. But how do you have a rational discussion with the opposing views when they have contradictory evidence? This is from a man I greatly respect.
Delta Variant and the Question "Is Everything Falling Apart?" “
For several weeks, various memes of two pictures, "My Fall Plans vs. the Delta Variant," (riffing on the "How It Started vs. How It’s Going" memes) have become almost ubiquitous on social media. Some are darker than others, but they run the gamut from a picture of Socrates teaching next to a picture of Socrates poisoned to a picture of "Scott’s Tots" next to a picture of Steve Carell. The memes seem to fit the mood, and they seem to fit more and more every day.
*****A friend called me the other day after talking with an emergency room doctor at a major metropolitan hospital in the South. The doctor, a deacon at a conservative evangelical church, said this to my friend:
ALL of my hospitalized patients are unvaccinated.
These unvaccinated patients are demanding treatments that they’ve heard about on spurious Facebook and Twitter posts. When we say those are faulty or unproven, they say they are going to sue us.
This is worse than what we faced last January and February because these people had a way to avoid all this.
Ironically, when things get dire, these patients demand treatments to save their lives from the very same companies that have produced the COVID-19 vaccines.
The doctor is discouraged, and so was my friend. He said, "Honestly, it offered a moment of reflection for me: Here I am lamenting this disaster in Afghanistan and frustrated that we haven’t done more as a nation to spur that country along, and yet, here in my backyard, we can’t get something so relatively simple right (getting safe vaccines into arms in a deadly pandemic). We are such a self-centered, all-consumed culture that we can’t even avoid our disasters of our own making."
YES! I have said these same things! There is NO common sense. I truly don't know how so many turn a blind eye to the evidence out there that the shot is not the be all end all!
This is logical to many but we are speeding down the road to mandates as evidenced in New York City. I received a possible explanation this week by listening to Catherine Austin Fitts, who appeared on Episode 228 of the HighWire. Her discussion points to a bigger financial plan. Ms. Fitts is the former Assistant Secretary of HUD. I would recommend listening if you have the time.
But with the rate of the covid test false positives.. how do we know that's even what they really died from? We already know we can't trust the numbers, or the ventilator-happy hospitals 'just following protocol'..
I agree about everything except for the idea of pacifying the fears of the vaccinated. They may have nothing to fear from other vaccinated or non-injected individuals...but it's getting to be less and less of a mystery as to what the longterm side effects of those shots they took will be, and that much sounds like it's worth being wary of.
Example of NO common sense

Wow. Crazy.

Thank you! It’s all common sense to me!!!
Do we really know yet if the vaccinated are shedding spike proteins? There are so many unknowns with the vaccines.

Thanks, Doc. You must be reading my mind.
Just to complicate the discussion, now the talk is for everyone to get a booster injection.
