I'm not "Brave"; You're Just a P---y.
On courage. And on the DMs that I am sent that seek to justify cowardice, at a time when some bravery is needed from us all.

Dr Naomi Wolf

Some people who love me advised me not to write this essay, and not to use its current title. “Take the high road,” I was advised.

Usually that is a good idea, but not in this case — not at this moment. In this essay I need to talk about some people — mainly privileged people, people who could make a difference in areas where most can’t — who are trying to justify their monumental, world-changing cowardice, at a time when we all need to be at least somewhat brave.

I am done with tolerating this quietly.

Not only does that demonstrate that these “vaccines“ are not stopping the spread but it also adds credence to the theory that they weaken your natural immunity.

I haven't heard anything from that little bitch Fauci in two weeks.

So we can probably shut this thread down now, because covid must not be a problem anymore. Right?

Seeing the dims at the SOTU speech on Tuesday and how unafraid they seemed. Have any high profile political figures passed from covid? Did they have covid survivability at greater rates than the general populace?

I don't think for one NANOSECOND that ANY of those asshats took a jab. All Kabuki Theater. It's conspiracy theory on my part (sorry Para), but I think they all KNOW the side effects of the poison and went on prophylactics like Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine as preventive measures. I don't believe for one NANOSECOND the CEO of my company took the jab. But MANDATE it on everyone else?? Not a problem at all...

Where’s Fauci? Infamous Bureaucrat Now Relegated to Obscure Shows and Local TV

Fauci recently appeared on a show called “Woke AF.”

Jordan Schachtel 20 min ago

If you’re looking for the infamous Dr Anthony Fauci, you might want to check your local television stations, or some random YouTube channels, because the man has seemingly joined the primetime cable milk carton. 

COVID Mania has become deeply unpopular with the American people, and a Democratic polling firm recently convinced the Biden Administration and its allies in Congress to drop the hysteria. With midterms around the corner, and trouble raging in Eastern Europe, it was time to put the kibosh on all of it.

And with the memo came the simultaneous sidelining of Dr Fauci.

But given his love for television appearances, the NIAID chief has taken desperate measures to try to remain relevant. And by desperate, I mean DESPERATE. You’ll see what I mean in just a moment.

I had to dig pretty deep to find some of his recent media appearances, but I didn’t want to let you all down, so I persevered through the interwebs to find evidence of Fauci’s existence.

He recently appeared on an online streaming show called “Woke AF” (As F**K),  in which he expressed his disdain for the unvaccinated. In a clip featured by the show host on Twitter, Fauci rants that the unvaccinated have no respect for greater society. Fauci, who comes off as a broken man, channeled plenty of his regular pseudoscience, claiming that the unvaccinated “give the virus the opportunity to circulate among us.”

I also found a recent Fauci appearance on a D.C. local TV channel. In it, Fauci demands “money now” for his government department, seemingly trying to shake down lawmakers for his pet projects.

In another recent local TV hit, Fauci demands that people continue to adopt the COVID hysteria mindset. “I don't think people should get the impression that we’re saying that this is all over,” a visibly distraught Fauci told the host. “We’re going to be dealing with SARS-CoV-2 for quite a while.”

In late February, Fauci appeared on a YouTube comedy show to answer questions about COVID-19. No, there was no comedy involved. 

The other day, the White House COVID Task Force did a livestream social media presentation, featuring Fauci, on the steps ahead with COVID-19.

Demonstrating Americans’ clear lack of interest in COVID Mania, the stream only accumulated about 7,000 views.

And that’s pretty much it. Perhaps Fauci can now get back to doing whatever he does for his day job.

The NIAID’s “Dr Fauci In The News” website, which throughout COVID Mania, has tracked hundreds of its directors major media appearances, has not posted a new appearance since February 17.

It appears that Fauci’s time in the spotlight is over, and judging by his dejected state in recent media appearances, he knows it too.

Exactly correct. Both occurrences test verified infection in about 3 months at urgent care by PCR lab test, not rapid insta-test. Additionally, I mentioned a few pages back that a previous co-worker whose FIL was on a ventilator (likewise fully “vaccinated” and boosted) that had a poor prognosis; he passed away yesterday when the family made the decision to take him off as his condition was steadily deteriorating. He was a burly Illinois farmer in average health for his age. My fear is that stories like these are going to not only continue, but increase over time for the same reason you state- these “vaccines” compromise your ability to fight infection naturally.

BY the way, I have found a way to shut up the “vaccine” Nazis on my unvaccinated status- i challenge them to walk through any Covid ward without a mask. I tell them I’ll bet my life against their snake oil induced lack of protection. It never fails to end the conversation.

It’s not a super scientific poll or anything like that but my daughters dance studio was hella hard about wearing a mask. This is a hell of a change. They dropped the requirement and now NOBODY here is wearing a mask. Not a single damn person is masked up here. The hope this gives me is tempered a bit by an experience I had recently.

I went biking with my daughter yesterday and while riding in a park we saw kids skateboarding by themselves whilst wearing masks. The tricks they were attempting to do on benches was more dangerous than this virus. I honestly wonder if it’s more hazardous to your health to wear a mask as a young kid? I wouldn’t put it past China to put cancer causing material in masks bound for the USA intentionally.

Remember when we heard continually Don't question the science.

Walensky just said: “I have frequently said, ‘We’re going to lead with the science, the science is going to be the foundation of everything we do.’ That is entirely true,” she said. “I think the public heard that science is foolproof, science is black and white, science is immediate, and we get the answer and then we make the decision based on the answer. And the truth is science is gray, and science is not always immediate, and sometimes it takes months and years to actually find out the answer. But you have to make decisions in a pandemic before you have that answer.”


CDC Director: Nobody Said COVID-19 Vaccine Effectiveness Might Wane

https://www.theepochtimes.com/..._campaign=2022-03-05

When COVID-19 vaccines were first authorized in late 2020, the public wasn’t informed that the touted effectiveness might decline, a top U.S. health official said on March 3.

Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, recalled watching coverage of clinical trial results that indicated the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine was 95 percent effective.

“So many of us wanted to be helpful. So many of us wanted to say, ‘Okay, this is our ticket out, right, ‘now we’re done.’ So I think we have perhaps too little caution and too much optimism for some good things that came our way. I really do. I think all of us wanted this to be done,” Walensky said.

“Nobody said ‘waning’; ‘Oh this vaccine is going to work, oh well, maybe it’ll wear off.’ Nobody said, ‘Well, what if the next variant, it’s not as [effective] against the next variant,” she added.

Walensky, who was speaking at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, was tapped to head the CDC on Dec. 8, 2020, by then-president-elect Joe Biden. Three days later, U.S. regulators authorized the Pfizer jab. That same month, they cleared Moderna’s shot.

Both those vaccines and the only other COVID-19 vaccine available in the United States, made by Johnson & Johnson, were initially promoted as highly effective in preventing infection from the virus that causes COVID-19. Pfizer’s was said to be 95 percent effective in preventing infection.

“Vaccination is a critical tool in bringing this unprecedented pandemic to an end,” Dr. Robert Redfield, Walensky’s predeceessor, said in a statement before leaving office.

“We know for sure that the vaccine is highly efficacious in preventing the clinical disease,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said on CNBC around the same time.

While authorizing the shots, the Food and Drug Administration acknowledged it could not determine how long the vaccines would provide protection.

The vaccine effectiveness has dropped over time, and provides little protection against infection, according to data released after the Omicron virus variant became dominant in the country in late 2021.

“Just about everybody” will get COVID-19 because of Omicron, according to Fauci.

Still, Fauci, Walensky, and other U.S. officials continue to recommend virtually all Americans aged 5 years or older get a vaccine and get a booster, asserting the protection against severe disease, which is also waning, is reason enough.

On Thursday, Walensky also said that she was not sure if a second booster of the vaccines will be required while alleging some people have drawn the wrong conclusions about public health guidance during the pandemic.

“I have frequently said, ‘We’re going to lead with the science, the science is going to be the foundation of everything we do.’ That is entirely true,” she said. “I think the public heard that science is foolproof, science is black and white, science is immediate, and we get the answer and then we make the decision based on the answer. And the truth is science is gray, and science is not always immediate, and sometimes it takes months and years to actually find out the answer. But you have to make decisions in a pandemic before you have that answer.”

Is he doing ShamWow commercials yet??

The only place I want to see that Hobbit Fauci's face, is on a wanted poster. For crimes against humanity. Regards 18DAI

I would rather his face be in a Wiki article that leads off with:

"Anthony Fauci, was a...."

This afternoon would be fine.

It could be entertaining to watch the bidding for the box of matches to light the tinder under the massive pile of lumber around the stake to which he is tied. (After he is tried, convicted, and sentenced of course.)

Yeah, never happen. Probably never even be sentenced to prison, though he should be. Oh well…

Sooner or later the political scrum will die down and the American people, and humans around the globe, will be left picking up the pieces. I get that politics are going to be a thing around COVID for a long time, but many of us just want to cut through the bullshit and get more data on what our loved ones can expect in the coming months and years.

Is the stethoscope necessary in the making of the video?

Lends credibility.

When I was a yoof, a long time ago, doctors made house calls. A stethoscope left on the dashboard pretty much guaranteed immunity from parking tickets. Many people went to pawn shops to buy stethoscopes.

Yeah... and so cliche.

It makes him look cool.

And then there's the, "Dang, he must know what he's talking about, he's got a stethoscope!".
