A very thought provoking article. I certainly do look at these good doctors and wonder what else they - and the whole profession - is getting wrong.

However, we also have to bare in mind a couple of things: that the degree of brainwashing in medics re drugs and especially vaccines is very high; and that the stakes for stepping out of the closet is therefore also very high. Most medics that are now speaking against the vaccine have had to come to terms with this latter point - quite bravely in my opinion.

I must say that I do not personally know any medics who have not learnt about the vaccine adverse events either through experiences of this or prior vaccines. Even beyond medics, it seems most have learnt to question either through their own or other people's experimentations. Hence, even though I am one of the people who never trusted the vaccine, it was only due to a previous experiences that I was sceptical. I think it is fair to say that there are not many who can claim wisdom through reasoned scepticism alone. After all, there are many drugs that do work, and we cannot read the papers for every drug that comes out on the market.

So having said all that, imo, what one does with the findings once one becomes aware, and what one is willing to sacrifice in order to act on it, is the true test of one's character. One hopes that everyone also learns to become humbler through the experience.

Thanking you too for the thoughtful comments Maryam. Many of the themes of your feedback are covered in the article. I’m exploring the cultural, political and psychological problems beneath the surface question of whether covid jabs are/are not safe. For those keen on having the jabs banned, they might succeed only to remedy none of the deeper causes that brought us to this time. Bravery in the adult world is taking a stand on pain of death, not simply when losing friends or when the world might say mean things about someone. Saying someone is brainwashed is, with respect, excuse making. Some are easily brainwashed and some are resistant. This last few years has resolved who and who. I’m all for forgiveness, but no one who has failed moral and intellectual tests of merit deserves to lead simply because we forgive them. And it ought to raise red flags when so called experts feel entitled to lead despite making grave mistakes this past few years. Collectively we have children who have a future and they depend on us to fight to make it a better one. If we don’t toughen up and exercise a more justice orientated approach now, making major structural improvements, they will suffer from the excesses of our compassion (which is a weakness to be exploited)

Completely agree with everything here. I also believe they targeted our compassion or what they framed as our compassion (save Granny messaging vs starve scared Granny surrounded by scared clowns in bubble-wrap reality). You ended up quoting Sun Tzu after all "Attack their weaknesses". I wonder what he'd make of smartphones if he was ever even real and alive today?

Very insightful and I understand what you are arguing however I think there is a place for correctly recognising people’s standing (as you have done) and still welcoming them anyway.

When we are looking for significant public policy change, keeping our friends and lesser friends closer is important to achieving what should be our paramount goal; the welfare of all individuals within our society. This ultimately requires a unity amongst professionals towards a common goal and may require relaxing some standard to get there.

PS Anthony Fauci was coming in person to the AMA conference in Sydney 2022 but had to cancel at the last moment due to catching Covid-19 ;)

Ah Yes Billy, but what forms the basis of standing, this is the question. Is it credentials or titles or is it (as I argue) what the individual said and did when the rubber hit the road this past few years, pre 2020 accolades being almost irrelevant. Who on our side could argue you have not demonstrated greater merit as a potential AMA executive. Yet how many on our side would still think such an idea is crazy because you just aren’t credentialed enough, not of the correct class and haven’t accumulated enough elite points. What standards will be relaxed towards a better future, those that ought to be relaxed or those that play into the hands of the current machine that created this mess.

I have an alternate view on lung physiology that dismisses the notion of oxygen and carbon dioxide gaseous exchange

The article is titled

We breathe air not oxygen

I take you though all the steps that lead to this statement

Including how oxygen is manufactured

How oxygen is calibrated

Eg medical oxygen has 67parts per million of water contamination

Why oxygen is toxic, dehydrates and damages the alveoli

Lung physiology requires the air at the alveoli to reach 100% humidity

Can you see the problem?

The new take on lung physiology:

The lungs rehydrate the passing RBCs with iso tonic saline solution as they pass through the alveoli capillary beds

RBCs change from dark contracted dehydrated to plump bright hydrated form as they soak up the iso tonic saline solution the bursting alveoli bubbles throw upon the capillary sac

The airway mucosa conditions the breathe with salt and moisture

Seasonality of colds/flu is related to cold dry air and dehydration

Dehydration is the point of susceptibility

Excellent article. I regret I just sent you a lengthy Slack message touching on much of what I've just read in this article, should have read this first! I absolutely agree we should be paying attention to those who, let's say in Apr-May2020, threw up a hand and said "I have many serious questions before we proceed with this". Whether they're credentialed or not, the fact remains they were right and never pushed it. A question I have still is over those that were already there in Mar 2020 that said "something's up" and brought major revelations and compelling charts to the table; but have since gone on to parrot establishment narratives and shy away from any of the glaring & foundational plot holes in modern day reality/clown world. Were they there to be found (like many of the resistance gps) or were they savants somehow to this day still oblivious to many other screamingly obvious inconsistencies in this shared narrative of official reality?
