I am still unable to discuss the whole COVID fiasco with my family. They bought it hook line and sinker. My “spider” instincts kept me from getting the vaccine even though I was in the high risk group. Turns out that more research on it proved me rightly hesitant. I have always believed that if something doesn’t seem right, it probably isn’t.
I sometimes feel the weight of human suffering all over the world and it makes me sad, occasionally angry too.
Here is why the US is not following the science. So it turns out that the (US) Department of Defense (DoD) is a Municipal corporation (owned and controlled by the Pope).
Here is just a partial analysis of "Department of Defense" aka, "DOD", as a foreign commercial
corporation controlling among other things:
NIH, CDC and FDA, Social Security, Health and Human Services including Indian Health,
Railroads, National Transportation Safety, Bonneville Power, Nuclear Regulation Agency, DOE
Petroleum Reserves, BLM, Bureau of Reclamation, DOEducation, FBI, DEA, DOJ, US
Attorneys Army, Army Reserves, Corps of Engineers, Navy Exchange Service Command, Air
I especially appreciate how you are inviting the reader with questions, rather than bashing them over the head with statements. I’m also trying to do that in my work.
In fact, as a student of astrology, this lesson of “Be curious, ask questions, Beginner’s Mind” (Gemini) was the invitation of May 2020 to January 2022, and the challenge was not to go up on Mt. Pious and proclaim you alone have THE TRUTH! (Sagittarius) (This is because the north node of the moon, or our evolutionary direction forward, was in Gemini, and the south node, our karmic debts, reckoning and release, was In Sagittarius.)
How many people spent their time on Mt. Pious? I know I had my moments but because I knew about this astrology, I did my best to ask lots of questions as a small child would. Of course, even asking questions got some of us in trouble! Still, at least I didn’t lose myself much in useless arguments.
Anyway, the questions about freedom at the end were really useful. I have told people I’m much freer in Japan than in the US because there aren’t security cameras, guards and police everywhere like in my native Seattle area, there’s more of a sense of people trusting each other and being willing to help out so people can feel more relaxed here. Now, that’s not to say there aren’t problems---I’m going to blog about “Japan During Covid” soon!
Psychotropic drugs don't heal trauma, yet that is the most common intervention. In bygone days when people lived in groups, there was huge emphasis put on character building, it kept the tribe in harmony and intact. Today, a con man can easily move on to new unsuspecting individuals. So often predatory behaviour is rationalized under the slogan 'business is business' or 'It is just business.' It is so expensive to survive, that decency has gone by the wayside. The nuclear family is under massive pressure. Too many divorces erode the stability of life for children, the most important resource and antidote to trauma, 'love' takes a hit. We need to both compete and cooperate; the scales have tipped to competition only, that results in war, and large-scale human misery. Solutions?
COVID was yet another self-inflicted trauma. Add it to the list.
It's several years I've felt the West suffers from various forms of mental illness. We're also self-entitled and pampered ignoramuses. Look at those comments about Novak. A close friend of mine expressed the same feelings "F him. He thinks he's above the rules." It left me shocked. Then again, he also swallowed whole every possible government propaganda to the point of calling me a 'granny killer'. We've known each other 45 years. That's what stunned me about all this. People who know you - or you thought knew you - were ready to think the worst of you they were so given to the hysteria. The lack of common sense, courage and humanity left a mark.
I've got nothing to say to such people anymore. Our value system - if we ever had one (so much for ethics, eh?) - is fractured and can no longer be bridged. The civil order is ruptured and I don't see how we can repair it.
As always, Joe, you provoke thought, not enmity.
Thank you.

You guys up in Canada have been hoodwinked the same way. Australia and most of the planet as well.
Great, thought-provoking article, Joe!

Bah. I'm going back to my Cinzano.
They are letting unvaccinated in through the southern border and hang glider with a motor appears to be a new way.
