so-called covid vaccines are not really vaccines

Brands have no business pushing COVID vaccines

Whether you are looking to inform a loved one about the dangers of COVID-19 “vaccines” or you have just started to ask questions yourself, welcome. This page will be an eye-opener. Originally published on June 14, 2021, this blog post has been updated dozens of times with carefully curated news and information that every freedom-loving person needs to know. Unfortunately, most of this information has been hidden from you, censored and suppressed by corporate news outlets and Big Tech companies (Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) who are determined to push the establishment narrative.

This is your chance to see and share the truths that they don’t want you to know.

July 11, 2022 update: Wow, they actually said it. “French tennis player Jeremy Chardy remains sidelined and has now withdrawn from the French Open. Chardy, 35, hasn’t played since ending his 2021 season prematurely because of the COVID-19 vaccine complications.”

July 10, 2022 update: According to the government of Alberta, Canada, “ill-defined and unknown causes” now top the list of leading causes of death in that province. (Did you get that? They don’t know what is killing people.) That category is leading the way over dementia, which has been in the top spot since 2016, and COVID-19, which began adding to the death tally in the province in a big way in 2020.

July 9, 2022 update: Birth rates are declining and death rates are skyrocketing around the world — Norway, Sweden, Germany, and elsewhere. According to the latest government data from Taiwan, birth rates were down 27.66 percent in June 2022 compared to June 2021, and deaths increased 26.41 percent over June 2021. What’s behind this? A possible clue: Taiwan’s population is 80 percent “fully vaccinated” with approximately 90 percent of the population having received one shot.

July 8, 2022 update: England and Wales — and many other places around the world — are reporting “horrific numbers” of excess deaths not attributable to COVID. “Latest figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) show that excess deaths – the total number of deaths above the average count for a given period – reached 1,540 in the week ending 24 June. A total of 10,836 deaths were registered in England and Wales, a 16.6% increase on the five-year average.”

But only 2.6% (285) of the latest deaths involved Covid-19 – a finding that has triggered calls for ‘an urgent investigation into what is behind the excess mortality’, reported The Telegraph’s health editor Sarah Knapton.”

July 7, 2022 update:

July 5, 2022 update: A letter from 76 doctors to the Medical and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) and U.K. Government officials lays out comprehensive reasons why the recent U.S. FDA decision authorizing COVID vaccinations in infants and young children must not happen in the UK. Among these are “the increasing evidence of rapidly waning vaccine efficacy, the increasing concerns over long-term vaccine harms,” and “huge gaps” in the Pfizer documentation. Have a look. It’s a barn-burner.

June 30, 2022 update: Good Sciencing, a website that is keeping a running total of athlete deaths following C-19 shots, puts the current number of cardiac arrests at 1,174 and total deaths at 779. Several dozen more are pending confirmation that the athlete had in fact received the shot.

From Reuters: Heart inflammation after COVID-19 shots higher than expected in study of U.S. military. Of course, the article categorizes the rate of myocarditis as “rare” — but the fact that Reuters, one of the largest purveyors of corporate media propaganda, was forced to report this means it’s a lot bigger than they want you to know.

June 23, 2022 update:

June 8, 2022 update: The mainstream media are now trying to pass off vaccine injuries and deaths as a mysterious new syndrome called “Sudden Adult Death Syndrome (SADS).” Click the image below to view the article.

The Daily Mail and other mainstream media sources brazenly try to pass off vaccine injury and death as a mysterious new syndrome called Sudden Adult Death Syndrome

June 6, 2022 update: From Israel, one of the most highly-vaccinated countries in the world, comes this story reported by Israel National News: “New study links COVID vaccines to 25% increase in cardiac arrest in both males and females.” Pay special attention the subheading: “COVID infection itself not linked to significant increase in cardiovascular complications.”

June 5, 2022 update: Dr. Kenji Yamamoto, a surgeon at Okamura Memorial Hospital’s Department of Cardiovascular Surgery in Japan, has just published a paper, “Adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccines and measures to prevent them.” The abstract begins: “Recently, The Lancet published a study on the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines and the waning of immunity with time. The study showed that immune function among vaccinated individuals 8 months after the administration of two doses of COVID-19 vaccine was lower than that among the unvaccinated individuals. According to European Medicines Agency recommendations, frequent COVID-19 booster shots could adversely affect the immune response and may not be feasible. The decrease in immunity can be caused by several factors such as N1-methylpseudouridine, the spike protein, lipid nanoparticles, antibody-dependent enhancement, and the original antigenic stimulus. These clinical alterations may explain the association reported between COVID-19 vaccination and shingles. As a safety measure, further booster vaccinations should be discontinued…”

June 2, 2022 update: The media continues its gaslighting of the American public with this article from the New York Post. Click the image below to see the story.

The New York Post continues gaslighting the American public with this story warning about a sharp increase in blood clots in women under 40

May 20, 2022 update: Retired neurosurgeon Russel L. Blaylock lays bare the lies and corruption of government bureaucracies, medical associations, medical boards, the media, and international agencies in a scorching editorial published by the National Institutes of Health — that’s Anthony Fauci’s employer. “It is time to stop this insanity and bring these people to justice.” This one article provides a more complete detailing of the corruption around COVID-19 vaccines and mandates than some entire websites.

December 29 update: Using Pfizer’s own vaccine trial data, a collection of more than 500 Canadian doctors finds greater illness and death among jab recipients than the placebo group. Plus, poor trial design, missing data, passive surveillance, and more. Video below:

December 17 update: Cardiologist Dr. Peter McCollough appears on Bret Weinstein’s Dark Horse Podcast to discuss why the medical community’s response to this virus has been unscientific and irresponsible.

December 17 update: Reuters reports that “Tens of millions of migrants may be denied COVID-19 vaccines from a global programme because some major manufacturers are worried about legal risks from harmful side effects, according to officials and internal documents.”

So, migrants can sue the drug manufacturers if the shots harm them, but you can’t.

refugees-lack-covid-shots-because-drugmakers-fear-lawsuits

December 6 update: Have you noticed all the sports players who have collapsed on field, on live TV, with heart attacks and seizures this year? Of course, the news channels cut the feed when an announcer rubs two brain cells together to wonder aloud if it’s due to the vaccines. Of course.

Below: The world’s athletes have suffered a horrifying wave of cardiac carnage in 2021.

Why does the FDA want to delay the full release of its vaccine trials data for 55 years? (Oops, now they want 75 years.) Maybe because the first 30 pages of data show more than 1,223 deaths, 48,000 adverse events, and 9 percent “spontaneous abortions” in just the first three months?

November 1 update: In this Newsweek op-ed titled “How Dr. Fauci fooled America,” two prominent doctors discuss the ways Dr. Fauci misled America on how to deal with the COVID pandemic, and why so many of the authors’ scientific colleagues are afraid to speak out — from being slandered and smeared in the media to being banned by Big Tech to losing positions or research grants.

October 15 update: If you watch just one video on this page, make it this one. Pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole explains the catastrophic damage that COVID vaccines are doing to people’s vital organs at the American Frontline Doctors White Coat Summit in July 2021.

September 17 update: Another great, comprehensive video from an ICU nurse who brings the stats and facts the media won’t tell you. A point she makes early on: Ivermectin prevents COVID. It treats COVID. It’s safe, cheap and easy. But doctors cannot prescribe it because THAT WOULD VOID THE EMERGENCY USE AUTHORIZATION that allows pharmaceutical companies to sell their vaccines.

(Right on cue, YouTube banned this video. Big Tech gonna Big Tech. I have uploaded it using my own server space so you can watch it here.)

August 26 update: Fooled again? Language chicanery in the FDA “approval” creates confusion about whether or not the Pfizer-BioNTech shot actually has been fully approved. Close inspection shows that the FDA has approved a future vaccine product named Comirnaty, and not the Pfizer-BioNTech product currently in use. The current product has had its authorization extended for emergency use. So, it would seem that there is STILL no available FDA-approved, licensed vaccine; only the experimental shot for which the manufacturer cannot be held liable.

August 23 update: The MSM is reporting that FDA has just approved the Pfizer shot with absolutely no public discussion of available health data. This is unprecedented.

August 19 update: This has been called a “pandemic” due to the number of cases. And how have we arrived at the number of cases? With the PCR test — a test that was never meant to be a diagnostic test, never meant to tell anyone that they’re sick. As Kary Mullis, inventor of the PCR test, explains below, the intended purpose of PCR is to “make a whole lot of something out of [very little] something.” It can find virtually anything in anyone. So, if we have been using this “test” to “find” COVID-19 in people, then what we have really found is an enormous number of false positives. (Yes, including the can of Coca-Cola that tested positive for COVID live in Austrian parliament.) Which begs the question: If the numbers are not real, how real is the pandemic?

August 13 update: If you pray, please say a prayer for the young woman below.

“The same doctors who told us this is safe are the same doctors brushing us off,” she says. “It is now time that we are heard, seen, and believed.”

Previous updates:

I am updating this page to shine a light on some of the suppressed information that people are NOT hearing from the talking heads on TV.

But first, let’s all remind ourselves that we need to be listening to what the REAL DOCTORS AND SCIENTISTS have to say — not “fact checkers” or journalists.

Unfortunately, the top doctors and scientists who’ve dared to speak out about the safety concerns associated with COVID-19 shots (note that they are not actually “vaccines,” nor are they FDA approved — more on that below) are being censored and suppressed, their careers threatened.



Take Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of the mRNA vaccine technology used in the Pfizer and Moderna shots. If anyone knows about this technology, it’s this man — yet Big Tech continues to ban him from social media. Why? Malone’s only “crime” is studying the evidence and asking valid questions about the vaccines’ safety. Most recently, he is seeing evidence that suggests vaccinated people are MORE vulnerable to serious illness from subsequent coronavirus infections than unvaccinated people.

Or how about Dr. Peter McCollough, who has unimpeachable credentials as vice chief of internal medicine at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas and senior professor of internal medicine at Texas A&M University. He’s had to go to platforms such as Brighteon to get the word out because Big Tech platforms such as YouTube won’t allow his voice to be heard. In particular, they don’t want you to know about inexpensive and readily-available treatments such as ivermectin (60+ studies supporting effectiveness against COVID-19) and hydroxychloroquine (200+ studies supporting effectiveness against COVID-19). One has to ask, why are these life-saving solutions being suppressed by government and the media?


Below is an interview with Dr. Roger Hodkinson discussing the shocking censorship against Dr. McCollough, the effectiveness of early intervention with low-cost drugs such as ivermectin, and the “horror-show” scenarios these shots may cause in the coming years. Be sure to watch to the end when Dr. Hodkinson says “there will be blood in the gutter” when the public finds out how badly we’ve been manipulated.

Something is wrong here. And growing evidence suggests that the consequences may be devastating.

Here is Dr. Byram Bridle explaining that the spike proteins (the antigens these mRNA shots tell our bodies to produce) are dangerous. On their own, he says, they are “almost entirely responsible for the damage to the cardiovascular system . . . Indeed, if you inject the purified spike protein into the blood of research animals, they get all kinds of damage to the cardiovascular system, it can cross the blood-brain barrier and cause damage to the brain…”

(Quick detour: Listen to this short clip of the Texas Senate testimony below, which references animal tests that had to be stopped because the animals kept dying.)

Bridle says the spike proteins are responsible for the heart problems, blood clotting, and cognitive issues that doctors are seeing in vaccine recipients. Chillingly, he suggests this may have severe implications for breastfeeding, blood donations, and fertility.

Bridle concludes:

“We made a big mistake, we didn’t realize it until now… By vaccinating people, we are inadvertently inoculating them with a toxin.”

Now stop and ask: Do we really need these experimental shots when the survival rate for COVID-19 patients is 98.3 percent (based on CDC’s own numbers as of August 5, 2021)?

Oh, and this is rich:

Below: I’m sure you’ve heard that it’s the unvaccinated whose “irresponsible” actions are making them sick and putting everyone else at risk. But is it true? Here is a hospital spokesperson in Britain telling the press that “ALL BUT ONE” of its 141 very sick COVID patients have been vaccinated — and that the remaining patient had received the first dose. As it happens, this astronomical rate of sickness among the vaccinated points to the antigen-dependent enhancement (ADE) response that Dr. Malone has called “our worst-case scenario.” It means that vaccinated people who later encounter COVID in nature may become dangerously ill as their immune systems go into overdrive and attack their own bodies. (As the earlier animal studies showed.)

The doctor below explains viral escape and warns that the variants bred within the vaccinated may produce a super variant: “If we do not immediately stop mass vaccination campaigns all around the world, the world will experience an international catastrophe of mass mortality … The vaccinated are a threat to us all.”


August 5 from Israel — more evidence of ADE:

But you see, the National Institute for Health (NIH) already knew about ADE. Here is a link to a study, published December 4, 2020, in which the researchers note that these vaccines “may worsen COVID‐19 disease via antibody‐dependent enhancement (ADE)” — and further, that this risk is not adequately disclosed to the patient.

I quote from the report:

“This risk is sufficiently obscured in clinical trial protocols and consent forms for ongoing COVID‐19 vaccine trials that adequate patient comprehension of this risk is unlikely to occur, obviating truly informed consent by subjects in these trials.”

The report concludes: “The specific and significant COVID‐19 risk of ADE should have been and should be prominently and independently disclosed to research subjects currently in vaccine trials, as well as those being recruited for the trials and future patients after vaccine approval, in order to meet the medical ethics standard of patient comprehension for informed consent.”

So now we are encouraging, and in many cases, mandating, people to receive experimental shots without giving them a chance to understand the risks. This is criminal.

Want more from real doctors? Here is a video from American Frontline Doctors (July 2021). You’ll find TONS of expert info here, but skip to the four-hour-and-three-minute mark (4:03:00) to hear Dr. Ryan Cole explain the catastrophic damage that COVID vaccines are doing to people’s vital organs.

(Spoiler: The spike proteins damage blood vessels, causing blood clots; they damage all major organs — heart, brain, lungs, liver, testes and ovaries, to name a few; they lower the resistance to existing dormant viruses already in the body — shingles, etc.; they kill off natural cancer inhibitors; and more.)

dr. ryan cole discusses vaccine dangers at frontline doctors summit

You may wonder, did they (the CDC, FDA, WHO, pharmaceutical companies, etc.) KNOW about all these potential side effects before sticking needles in millions of arms?

Yes, yes they did.

Below is a slide from an FDA presentation dated October 2020 showing “possible adverse event outcomes.” Note myocarditis, the heart inflammation — the FDA and CDC claim not to have known about that until recently — and in the lower right corner, “vaccine enhanced disease.” That’s ADE.

How many of these potential side effects did they share with YOU when you got the shot?

potential adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccines

And remember, these injections are still in Stage Three clinical trials — and WE are the test subjects.

You can see a video of the full FDA presentation below. This slide appears — for a split second — at 2:33:40. Don’t blink or you’ll miss it!

Original blog post, published June 14, 2021:

As COVID-19 vaccines become widely available, an increasing number of brands are encouraging their customers to take the jab. But is that a good thing? Do you really trust the likes of McDonald’s to tell you what is best for your health? And what business is it of theirs anyway? Here’s why I think brands should butt out — and why consumers need to take responsibility for making their own well-researched and informed decisions.

Lately I’ve been seeing more and more brands offering freebies and discounts to customers who can prove they’ve been vaccinated:

  • Krispy Kreme is giving away free donuts.
  • Budweiser and Sam Adams are offering free beer.
  • McDonald’s has redesigned its coffee cups to promote the vaccines, and Office Depot will laminate your shiny new vaccine passport card for free.

Besides making me wonder how long it will be before once-free Americans are forced to “show their papers” in order to get a job, go to college, attend a music festival, or travel across state lines, this meddlesome meddling by advertisers has triggered my gag reflex yet again.

Hey, marketing peeps! Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to shamelessly jump on another “brand-purpose” bandwagon to make your company seem more caring and socially relevant than it really is!

I’ve been meaning to write a blog post about why “brand purpose” is bullshit and why most companies aside from Greenpeace and Amnesty International have no business whatsoever inserting themselves into political and social issues, but suffice it to say that I believe brands are overstepping bigtime here.

But, because we live in Clown World, I seem to be in the minority.

According to a new Harris Poll/Adweek survey, 60 percent of consumers say brands have an obligation to encourage people to get vaccinated.

I say these brands and consumers have no idea what they’re talking about.

First of all, these are NOT vaccines

What the government and mockingbird media won’t tell you is that mRNA “vaccines” are not vaccines at all. Not by traditional medical or legal definitions, they’re not.

  • These shots do not provide immunity.
  • They don’t prevent infection.
  • They don’t prevent transmission.

They don’t work like the protein-based vaccines most of us are familiar with, the ones that insert a weakened or inactivated pathogen, or protein, into our bodies to trigger an immune response.

What these “vaccines” do instead is program our cells to produce an antigen, called a spike protein, which binds and fuses with our cells to trigger an antibody response.

See the difference? mRNA shots actually tell our bodies to produce poisons, and then ask our bodies to attack those poisons.

Seems like kind of a big deal to fight a flu with a nearly 99-percent survival rate.

Let me be clear. I am no virologist. But in my research, I have seen many reputable doctors voice concerns about these spike proteins. Such as, how can we be sure our bodies know when to stop producing them? Are spike proteins responsible for the harmful side effects reported by some vaccine recipients, such as blood clots, strokes, menstrual problems, and the higher-than-expected reports of heart inflammation in young males who received their second dose of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines? (Update: Following an emergency CDC meeting, the FDA has updated its fact sheets with warnings about the risks of heart inflammation after taking the Moderna and Pfizer shots.)

And what might happen to vaccinated people later when they encounter the virus in the wild? In a 2005 animal study of mRNA vaccines to combat SARS-CoV-1, when test subjects were introduced to a similar virus through natural means, the body’s immune system went into overdrive, killing itself in a cytokine storm.

What reason do we have to believe that this won’t happen in human mRNA vaccine recipients?

What other possible side effects might we see in a year, or three years, or five? And what about health effects that might be passed down from vaccinated parents to their children?

No one knows.

These vaccines are not FDA-approved

Did you know that NO coronavirus “vaccine” currently has FDA approval? That’s right. The Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson shots are “authorized” for emergency use only.

From Pfizer’s own fact sheet (link since deleted) dated May 10, 2021:

pfizer fact sheet says the pfizer-biontech covid-19 vaccine is unapproved

From the same fact sheet, top of page 3:
pfizer fact sheet says the pfizer-biontech covid-19 vaccine is unapprovedIn case you didn’t catch it, clinical trials are ongoing, and HUMAN BEINGS are the test subjects.

By the way, did you know that you cannot hold these vaccine companies liable if you suffer an allergic reaction or injury after being vaccinated? The federal government has granted companies like Pfizer and Moderna total immunity from liability in the event that we are harmed by their vaccines.

Vaccine-related deaths and adverse reactions are skyrocketing

Are you aware that according to the CDC’s own data, more vaccine-related deaths have occurred in the first five months of 2021 than in the entire history of the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) started in 1990?CDC VAERS data show more vaccine-related deaths in 2021 than entire history of reporting since 1990

Don’t take my word for it. I’ve looked at the data and you can, too. Look at the number of reported deaths, the number of hospitalizations. The number of heart attacks, miscarriages, and reports of Bell’s palsy.

And these are just the problems we know about. You see, VAERS data is historically underreported. Why? Because doctors are not required by law to report adverse effects. Yes, patients can self-report — but how many even know the VAERS website exists? Did you before reading this page?

The fact is, the actual numbers of vaccine-related deaths and adverse effects are almost certainly many times higher than VAERS reports. In my own research, I have seen it recommended to multiply the VAERS numbers by at least 10, or even up to 100, to get an idea of the actual numbers.

More suppressed facts

For months, corporate media and Big Tech companies Google, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube (I’m sure there are more) have been suppressing critical information about the virus and vaccines.

In April, Facebook deleted a 120,000-member group where people shared posts about alleged adverse vaccine reactions. Yes, I know my link goes to a source you’ve never heard of, but the censorship and suppression is so pervasive now that these little nooks and crannies around the net are the only places where engaged citizens can find some truth anymore.

Sadly, deleted Facebook groups are the least of our problems.

Did you know that the PCR test, the “gold standard” for COVID diagnosis, is useless as a diagnostic test and was never intended to be one at all? Maybe that explains why a can of Coke tested positive for COVID during a PCR test administered live in front of Austrian parliament.

Most importantly, why haven’t we been told about low-cost, readily available treatments that are already proven to be highly effective?

Below is a video of the former head of medicine at the University of Wisconsin testifying before the Senate that Ivermectin, an anti-parasite medication, is “100% effective” against COVID. Big Tech likes to delete this video and YouTube even suspended Senator Ron Johnson for posting it.

Want more? This email from within the COVID Task Force (dated February 29, 2020; Anthony Fauci was one of the recipients) talks about the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). The sender (name redacted) says HCQ is “cheap” and “had very potent activity against COVID-19 infection and pneumonia.”

But, there was a problem. “Pharmaceutical companies have no incentive to do studies or research on its effectiveness” because it is an existing, generic drug that they can’t make money from.

Ahhh. There it is.

Below: 26 BILLION reasons why competition from Ivermectin & HCQ (two effective treatments for COVID) had to be squashed.pfizer reaps hundreds of millions in profits from covid vaccine

As always, follow the money

I could go on and on about these so-called vaccines and their potential dangers, from seizures to dementia to infertility (link goes to audio; you can read a transcript here.)

My point is, we just don’t yet know enough about the COVID shots to say for sure that they are safe.

The medical community doesn’t know. The pharmaceutical companies don’t know. The masked Karens at the grocery store don’t know, and I can guaran-damn-tee you that the pointy-headed opportunists who shill for these brands and advertising agencies don’t know, either.

Our personal and private health decisions are absolutely no one’s business but our own, and yet brands are making it their business for no other reason than it’s a free idea for an advertising campaign and it gives them another opportunity to virtue signal to the public while moving a few more widgets or whatchamafuckits.

Enough is enough. To advertisers I say: sit down, shut up, and stop inserting yourselves where you don’t belong. It’s long past time for you to get out of the social awareness business and go back to doing the job you were always supposed to be doing, which is working hard to create good, honest, effective advertising for once in your miserable lives.

And consumers, you need to stop letting brands lead you around like blind and helpless sheep. Start taking responsibility for your lives and make your own informed decisions.

What you don’t know could hurt you, or someone you love.

(Pro tip: Do your research using DuckDuckGo, a search engine that respects your privacy. Google, unfortunately, is one of the worst offenders of suppression and censorship.)

***July 3 update: a MUST-WATCH — Dr. Peter McCollough (Professor of Medicine at Texas A&M University) bypasses Big Tech censorship to discuss inexpensive and readily-available treatments for COVID-19, and why these life-saving solutions are being suppressed by government and the media. This interview covers LOTS of ground, including the reasons Dr. McCollough calls COVID-19 vaccinations for pregnant women “an atrocity.”

June 28 update #1: The FDA has FINALLY added a warning about the risks of developing myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) and pericarditis (inflammation of the tissue surrounding the heart) following the Moderna and Pfizer shots.

June 28 update #2: The Indian Bar Association (IBA) has sued WHO Chief Scientist Dr. Soumya
Swaminathan, accusing her of causing the deaths of Indian citizens by misleading them about the effectiveness of Ivermectin. From the press release: “Advocate Dipali Ojha, lead attorney for the Indian Bar Association, threatened criminal prosecution against Dr. Swaminathan ‘for each death’ caused by her acts of commission and omission. The brief accused Swaminathan of misconduct by using her position as a health authority to further the agenda of special interests to maintain an EUA for the lucrative vaccine industry.”

***June 15 update: Entrepreneur Steve Kirsch is also sounding the alarm about COVID vaccines. The “Should you get vaccinated?” page of his website, TrialSiteNews, offers copious information about COVID vaccine risks, and is updated continually with new developments. (Sadly, in a move of which I am highly critical, Steve has placed this information behind a [free] membership wall. It’s such good information, and so vitally important to saving lives, that I think he has a responsibility to remove any and all barriers so that everyone has easy access.)

  1. This past week, big pharma and media tech giants have gone after family owned Daystar Television for exposing the truth about COVID 19 and the stab Big Pharma and the Deep State want you to take. Daystar is owned by Marcus and Joni Lamb, with no financial interests in pharmaceuticals or any other corporate interests. They’re getting censored and sued by big tech giants and Big Pharma for spreading the truth about the COVID 19 Scandals.

    1. So sorry for the late reply, friend! Thank you for this update. Yes, the censorship and suppression of ANY information that goes against the establishment narrative is not only ongoing, but intensifying. But they can’t keep a lid on it forever, as witnessed by this op-ed in Newsweek, titled “How Fauci fooled America,” by doctors Martin Kulldorff and Jay Bhattacharya:
      https://www.newsweek.com/how-fauci-fooled-america-opinion-1643839

      The scariest thing for me is that it seems many of the conclusions and dire predictions above are coming to fruition now. Hospitals *are* being overwhelmed — not by the unvaccinated, but by the vaccinated who are having “breakthrough” cases (ADE?) or falling ill to side-effects of the shots. Since writing this article, several members of my own family have gotten sick, some critically, from issues we strongly suspect are a direct result of the shots.

      All we can do is try to stay safe, and go that extra mile to stay informed with the truth our corporate media sources do not want us to hear.

      Thanks for writing.

  2. Great job on doing some additional digging. Problems associated with writing an opinion piece about science have everything to do with the writer’s philosophical, religious, political ( etc.) bent. Your blog is an opinion piece, but you have strayed into an issue that is concerned with worldwide health. The onus for anyone doing this sort of writing for the general public is to do research that is based on current knowledge and fact–not on opinions of others who share our fundamental biases. The articles you use to shore up your perspective on Covid 19 vaccines is neither clean nor accurate, because you search for sources to substantiate your initial post on this subject. 1) Writing a supposed “gotcha” saying the FDA is updating info on the Covid vaccine ignores the fact that historically, the FDA updates its information. 2) Steve Kirsch, who is as you say a respected entrepreneur, also has strong biases which lead him. That pesky 25,800 vaccine-related deaths number seems to trace to someone named Austin G. Walters, and his graphs show trends from 2013. Read about him, check his blog interests and previous posts, and determine whether his research is clean and sound. https://austingwalters.com/articles/

    Statistics are neutral. None of the current updates to your initial research substantiate your position.

    My deepest sadness about the times we are in has to do with a sort of consciousness that says, “I’m right because I’m on the same side as the people I agree with are on. And it doesn’t seem to matter whether there is any such thing as objective truth or reality. True for both sides of the political aisle.

    What I have enjoyed about your blog has been your ability to call “foul” on advertisers who blatantly violate cultural norms of decency. Your posts have been based on the notion of decency…that’s fundamental to whether or not we will emerge from these political times with better sensibilities about how we interact with each other and with our world.

    My personal opinion is that that ability is your charism–and it is tremendously valuable.

    But it seems (note: seems) to me that your decision to take on “to vaccinate or not to vaccinate” is tied to something else…not decency…maybe personal freedoms. But is it possible that this sort of article is not appropriate for your blog? I don’t know…I noted a couple of “Let’s trash John Legend” comments. When your forum becomes something where we are trashing individual artists as as opposed to bad ideas in advertising…is that your intent?

    I was a little disappointed that you did not post my initial response to the blob topic. On the other hand, it may not have been helpful in any real way.

    All the best.

    1. Thanks for writing, Holly.

      Yes, I removed your earlier comment for a number of reasons. It was posted anonymously, it meandered into other politically-charged topics such as gun control, and it accused me of dishonesty — of trying “to convince others to follow a personal preference as opposed to best practices in available science.” (And somehow, it magically appeared on a day when no one had visited this page, leading me to think it was some sort of spam.)

      Clearly, you believe the scientists you see on TV, such as Dr. Fauci (who has seen his own controversies dating back to HIV and AZT). I think that we should also listen to the scientists that no one sees on TV, the ones who are being censored and silenced, the ones whose careers are being threatened and destroyed because they have dared to step out of line, to suggest that the shots might not be so safe, that in the rush to get to market, the people behind these injections may have missed something of critical importance.

      I have to ask, what part of “authorized for experimental use only” do you not understand? There are no FDA-approved vaccines for COVID-19. The clinical trials are happening now on people around the world. And serious reactions are being reported. Swept under the rug and hidden from view, yes (like that Facebook group of 120,000+ members that got deleted for talking about adverse effects), but they are there and they are growing in number.

      Did you watch that podcast with Steve Kirsch? The other guest was Dr. Robert Malone, inventor of mRNA vaccine technology. Would you not consider him a reliable source? Just so you know, Dr. Malone was recently suspended from Twitter and YouTube and other social media platforms simply for telling truths that don’t fit the narrative Big Tech wants you to hear.

      You accused me of playing “gotcha” with the FDA over its recent admission that the Moderna and Pfizer shots may cause myocarditis and pericarditis. Are you familiar with the term “informed consent”? The FDA knew about potential heart-inflammation problems (and many other adverse reactions) at least as far back as October 2020. (I will post a slide below to prove it.) Yet, how many people receiving these shots have been adequately informed about these possibly life-threatening risks? Were you? I think very few were.

      In any case, any problems with these “vaccines” would not be unprecedented. History shows many examples of supposedly “safe” medical treatments that turned out to have serious consequences later.

      What is unprecedented is the speed with which these injections were brought to market. What corners had to be cut to achieve this?

      I am not sure where you got the idea that my stance on these experimental shots is based on politics. You want to know my politics? I think Right and Left are the same. Neither side represents The People. Government is filled with liars and grifters, with precious few honest men and women interested in serving our best interests.

      So, no, this is not political. This is about trying to find and tell the truth.

      There is only one reason why I posted about Coronavirus in March of last year, back before it became the worldwide nightmare that it did. I had been paying attention to the outbreak since late January — well before most Americans had any clue — and I was becoming worried for my family and friends.

      I wrote that post because I wanted to help people, to share information that might help them prepare. Yes, it was off topic for an advertising blog, but no matter. I had a platform to reach people and I felt it was my responsibility to use it.

      To be honest, I hadn’t planned on writing an “anti-vax” post about these experimental injections. But when brands like McDonald’s and Budweiser got involved and started pushing people with their advertising to put these unproven chemicals into their bodies — well, they’d stepped right into my wheelhouse.

      My hands are getting tired from typing, so I will end with this. You have chosen to put your trust in “The Establishment.” You are certainly not alone. Far from it. But conventional wisdom is often wrong. Conventional wisdom can and does change. And here, I think the stakes are too high for the public to risk taking these experimental injections at this point in time.

      I wish you no hard feelings, Holly. Time will tell whether these shots are good, bad, or something in between. For all of our sakes, I hope that you are right.

      P.S. I could give a shit about John Legend. This is not a forum, this is my blog. People seemed to be playing and having fun, and I’m OK with that. Sorry, John, if your feelings were hurt.

      1. You are spreading dis-information. People who are dying have not got a vaccine. So they should get one.
        And who cares if McDonald’s is promoting it. I prefer my food without covid droplets.

        1. Wrong, Glenda. I’m the guy who’s trying to help wake up people like you who are fast asleep and dreaming of pretty lies while your damn house is on fire.

          As I’m sure you couldn’t be bothered to read my post above, here is a hospital spokesperson in Britain telling the press that “ALL BUT ONE” of its 141 very sick COVID patients have been vaxxed — and that the one not fully vaxxed actually did receive the first dose.

          Have you heard of antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) or super-spreading? Dr. Robert Malone, inventer of mRNA vaccine technology, is very concerned that the vaccines are causing recipients to get EVEN SICKER when they encounter the virus down the line.

          Or, you could read the horrors of the vax-harmed for yourself at sites such as http://www.c19vaxreactions.com/ and Medscape, the latter of which shows firsthand reports from actual medical professionals.

          Finally, from yesterday:

          My advice to you is to wake up, turn off the TV, and do your own research using a less truth-surpressing search engine such as Duck Duck Go.

          Your time to wise up may be running short.

    2. Here is the FDA slide showing “possible adverse event outcomes” from a presentation made in October 2020.

      Many of these side effects are exactly what we are seeing reported now (but not by the news). Note myocarditis, the heart inflammation. FDA and CDC claim not to have known about that until recently.

      potential adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccines

      You can see a video of the full presentation at the link below. This slide appears — for a split second — at 2:33:40. Look fast or you’ll miss it!

  3. I said Amen to all you said. And if I hear John Legend tell me one more time, “that it’s our time… get the “vaccine” for all of us,” I’m going to stomp and scratch every CD of his. It’s none of his or anyone else’s business. I’m waiting for the commercials seen on late night tv, now often shown during the day about litigation generally reserved for talcum powder, mesothelioma, and weed killers but soon about these, “vaccines.” Fun times ahead.

    1. I hope that’s not our future, CinziaV. But as I’ve been reading more about these spike proteins, I have begun to worry.

      Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.

      1. Lol nope it doesn’t. I personally don’t own any but if I ever see one… Look out!

  4. Thanks.

    Changing gears, what’s chafing my buns more often in ads are elaborate-sounding buzz-phrases that sound fancier than the reality: “certified pre-owned” and “responsibly sourced” come to mind.

    But that’s a topic for another day….

  5. Agree to the extent that it’s a fairly shameless way to market their own crap.

    Yet it’s not all that different that any given booze or beer ad closing with “please drink responsibly.” A public service message of sorts.

    Working in the health care field, I think the shots are a good idea. And having an uncle die a slow painful death (with no visitors) due to covid complications brings a different perspective for me. And to those who presumed to say “how do they know it was covid?”, I say they’re rude as hell and show disrespect to my uncle’s memory. To paraphrase his MD, Uncle Tony was otherwise on track for a peaceful passing, but adding covid created an awful “drowning aspect” that could not be alleviated. A decent person responds with “my condolences” rather than injecting their ignorance.

    If folks don’t wanna get a shot, so be it. Trotting out shit like Bud and McGarbage ain’t gonna make much of a difference despite the fact that it’s free shit.

    1. Always good to hear from you, Joe. I’m sorry about your Uncle Tony. I can’t imagine what it’s like to have a loved one pass in the hospital and not be allowed to be there for them.
