    If I had to do it all over again, I’d skip the shots and rely on my immune system. Something definitely wasn’t right with these shots, in my view.

    There have been sane scientific reports about impurities and traces of foreign DNA being found in samples of the vaccines from all vendors and a study implying that two shots caused cancers in mice (https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/oncology/articles/10.3389/fonc.2023.1158124) doesn’t inspire confidence either. I know all the “fact checks” around the topic, no need to link me to it. They’re all written by people with no medical expertise.

    The entire reporting about the pandemic was (in my opinion) highly unscientific, excluded critical voices (real doctors, not some snake oil salespeople) and came basically down to “just have faith in the science” and I feel terribly stupid for having participated in the sharade (not implying the entire pandemic was fake, but the way it was handled) and I hated myself for quite some time for having given into the pressure instead of listening to my intuition.

    These vaccines definitely screwed with my health. My heart didn’t perform as well for about a year (confirmed by a doctor), I felt fatigued despite having been active and fit despite the lockdowns (also confirmed by a doctor), I definitely had some issues with blood flow/clotting and my lymphatic system is definitely still trying to get rid of something.

    I’m not giving health advice here but please be aware that even if we accept the official number of 1/10000 likelihood of the vaccines having severe side effects (and I don’t think that’s true anymore based just on observations in my family and social circles, like women having screwed up periods, several miscarriages of otherwise healthy women, sudden appearances of cancer in people under 50) - if you’re the 1, it’ll fuck you up and no one will give damn. After talking to a few people who now can no longer work after having taken the shots, prepare for massive gaslighting, especially from doctors. Don’t trust in whatever is left of social security systems to care about you. They’ve all been told they’re imagining things or that they just had a genetic predisposition and would’ve had these issues even without the shots.

    My trust in the medical establishment is at an all time low. And now they’re planning on dumping mRNA into everything, like animal vaccines and crops. This doesn’t seem right. I have a real bad feeling about this.

    I’ll accept the risk if getting COVID from now on.

    I was never anti vaccines, btw. But there’s been so much suspicious shit going on around this whole topic that my trust “in (capitalist) science” is in shambles. Just the appearance of “sudden adult death syndrome” right after the vaccinations started was highly suspicious and should’ve warranted at least a pause of the vaccinations. At the very least, I’ll have to assume that it was more important for people to get back to work as quick as possible and to “return to normal” was a terrible driving force behind the way of this pandemic was handled.

    I’m sure people will come at me for all of this. I’m not (alt) right, I’m not anti science, but I worry that the rushed rollout of these shots was a big mistake. That doesn’t mean that the extreme anti vaxxers were right either.

    Edit: Not to mention how my girlfriend’s migraines have increased severely and that her Astrazeneca and Moderna batches are known for having headaches as a side effect according to VAERS.

    To the first 2 downvotes: Thanks for proving my point.

    Have you read any of it or did you just skim Wikipedia? I’m perfectly aware of people’s biases and that he’s likely to tend towards a pro-Russian spin. But after years of researching I can’t deny that a lot of his claims aren’t that unlikely.

    I’m not here to convince you. OP asked, I answered.

    From a Western perspective, you’ll have a hard time reading fringe criticism of the West without someone chanting “bUt tHiS iS RuSSian prOpAganDa” from the sides. The immediate shift in reporting about Ukrainian politics in Western media was so blatantly obvious propaganda and yet you come at me with this.

    We’ve all been fed propaganda since the 40s, from all sides, in every country, the media is either heavily centralized or state-controlled, no journalist covering socialist/anarchist topics is likely to dig deeper into this (hell, they’re likely fighting for truth in smaller areas where they can actually move the needle, more power to them), we have almost no real journalists with reach and impact left, Assange has shown that investigative journalism is as good as dead, we’re being fed Ministry of Truth crap as “fact checks” and we’ve all been programmed with our go-to responses for dissenting voices. I’ve had my share of normie “Anarchists” coming at me only to debunk their BS as centrist garbage dressed in nice patches, shirts and rhetorics.

    Have you debated a historian at a university about Fomenko (and they actually read it!) and hit them with facts until they had to admit that a lot of our history was under strict control of very few influential people of shady untrustworthy organisations and that there’s no irrefutable proof that certain documents, drawing and writings haven’t been either been manipulated or may be outright forgeries and that there’s a lot of trust involved in keeping it all together?

    Just consider it a hobby interest of mine if it makes you sleep any better. If you read at least one of Fomenko’s books, let’s debate without resorting to boring “you’re basically Putin’s right hand” rhetoric.

    Edit: To be clear, I’m not into genetics, I don’t care who belongs to which race, I don’t want to paddle to any nation state that their narrative about some race being superior is true. I can read scholars without having to adopt their entire world view.

    Two things can be true at the same time:

    • Government aligned capitalist profiteurs have been extracting value from the Earth for more than a century, causing massive damage to the ecosystem
    • Governments have some control over the weather (from 1965, National Science Foundation)

    I mean, just look at The Dimming and tell me that they’re all just stupid idiots who spent money and time on making a 2+ hour documentary, modifying planes to collect cloud samples, analyse and compare the results, etc? For what? Getting rich selling merchandise?

    Sure, I’m open to all of them being quacks but I’d really like to have some conclusive counter-evidence.

    Thanks so much attempting to bring at least some nuance into this discussion. But the cold hard truth is that no one really wants to know, because you’ll sleep a lot better if this is all just mumbojumbo.

    Unfortunately though, here is a research paper straight from a US government server that basically describes how it works in theory, with the following title:

    Weather as a Force Multiplier: Owning the Weather in 2025

    Scroll through the document. Read it. Then compare the technology to what’s being claimed about HAARP and other weather manipulation tech. I know there are insane people out there who’ll make the most insane claims but for every 100th nutjob there’s 1 person out there who actually read up on the stuff that’s available and often they’re a lot more hesitant on calling it all just a hoax.

    Unfortunately the truth is that people don’t care. Just look at the rhetoric used in these comments. Why would scientists come forward and risk being doxxed, ratted out to their employer as a lunatic conspiracy nut, claiming that is might be possible, even if just in theory?

    We had the mayor of Ankara in Turkey claiming that artificial earth quakes were used against Turkey way before 2023, though the USS Nitze docked in a Turkish port in the Black Sea just a couple of days before the February 6th earthquakes), right when Turkey was stalling for Sweden to join NATO. There’s videos out there of people filming bright blue-ish lights coming from a central source the night before the earthquakes happened.

    The longest time I thought this was all bullshit but the more I dug into it, the less I was able to convince myself that this is all just made up nonsense from idiots on the Internet. I’m not on the “it’s all HAARP!!” train but come on, let’s keep the discussion a bit more civil?
