Who Says I'm a Pessimist?
I am not a doctor, scientist, or expert in anything. This content should not be construed as advice or recommendation, but is intended for entertainment and informational purposes only.
I haven’t had a chance to write as much the last couple of months due to other obligations, but I have been spending a great deal of time thinking about this blog. Hopefully things clear up in the next couple of months so I can crank out more of the articles I’ve started but haven’t had an opportunity to finish.
After I publish every piece though, I can’t help but wonder how an article will land with you, my valued readers. I’ve been accused more than once of being a pessimist to which I normally reply that I’m not a pessimist, I’m a pragmatist. But in deeper reflection, I think I’m actually an optimist, at least as it pertains to the content of this blog.
No doubt I express outrage in many of my articles, and I believe that outrage is well placed. As a nation, and really as a global populace, we have been egregiously lied to by political leaders, bureaucrats, “intelligence” agencies, and corporations that currently control or influence many aspects of our lives, and it royally pisses me off.
I realize that a great many people are so anesthetized by modern life that they cannot comprehend, nor do they care, about what are truly incredible injustices against them. These people are content with the next hit of Brawndo, junk food, and entertainment, and do not want to upset the perceived comfort in which they’ve wrapped themselves.
For those unfamiliar with the Brawndo reference, the following short 2 minute video will tell you all you need to know, and gives a bit of a prediction on where we’re headed not to mention is funny as hell.
But for those who are awake (not to be confused with Woke), or who are in the early stages of waking up, my intent with this blog is to provide a different perspective by shining light on the uncomfortable truths and facts which lie thinly veiled in the corners where the power structures don’t want us to look. At bare minimum, I hope you at least find what I write mildly entertaining on occasion if not informative.
As an aside, I try to sanitize my language as much as possible in these articles. If we were to have such a discussion in person, many more shits, fucks, and other crude statements would likely work themselves in. I can hear my wife rolling her eyes now lol, but thankfully she puts up with me. Count yourself lucky I edit these posts heavily.
Enjoy my 5 optimistic messages for Christmas (seriously).
Optimistic Statement #1 - We have no idea if vaccines are safe or effective.
When I point out that Pfizer’s new RSV “vaccine” appears to be wildly ineffective based on their own data not too mention has no real safety profile since they never tested it against a true placebo, some people view my statements as negative. I’m simply pointing out the truth about the data.
Unfortunately, most vaccines, including those on the childhood immunization schedule, have never been tested against a true saline placebo, and medications in general kill well over 100,000 people each year in just this country alone due to adverse effects. There is also a lack of compelling evidence that vaccines have had the impacts on health for which we have given them credit.
When it comes to something that could have a significant impact on your health, would you rather be informed and know how the sausage is made, or do you want to just blindly accept a narrative and the inherent potential risks?
The fact that medications and vaccines may not be tested the way I thought they were, and are certainly not being truthfully marketed to the public is critical in my decision making process.
Armed with this knowledge, I can make the conscious decision to learn as much as possible about a particular intervention to understand whether or not the potential benefit is going to outweigh the risks, or if risks are even known. That’s a positive in my book.
Optimistic statement #2: You can't trust government data on the economy.
Knowing that most of the economic figures released by the BLS are highly manipulated, and do not begin to reflect the reality that our economy is far weaker than we want to admit likely resulting in a significant recession may cause many people to accuse me of being a chicken little.
It would be nice if we could blindly trust our government agencies, but that is incredibly naive and our forefathers warned us to remain vigilant when it comes to our government.
By acknowledging this reality instead of accepting a narrative, I can make different, and hopefully smarter, financial decisions in advance protecting myself and possibly take advantage of a downturn should it occur. I can do this without having to hit the pause button on life, or miss out on opportunities should such a downturn not occur.
Optimistic statement #3: It’s our own fault we're sick and fat.
When I point out that it’s our individual actions that make us fat and sick, I know that the initial reaction from many is to get defensive. I may even be accused of fat shaming. On the one hand we know we need to eat better, but on the other hand we don’t want to believe that is what is causing our problems.
Maybe the way we eat causes us to gain weight, but surely can’t cause my cancer, diabetes, infertility, autoimmune disorder, heart disease, anxiety, ADHD, depression, back pain, Alzheimer's, etc.
But most, if not all of our chronic ills, can be traced back to what we decide, or don’t decide, to stuff in our mouths on a regular basis. Why do we refuse to take the steps that will actually improve our health?
Obviously, we’re lazy, comfortable, and addicted. But I think it goes much deeper.
If it was the choices I was making that caused my poor health, then it has been my fault all along and not some outside, uncontrollable force, or my genes. I have to admit that I’ve been wrong, and I’m my own worst enemy.
Most people will go to great lengths to not have to admit how wrong they have been. Or they might grudgingly acknowledge reality, but cite lame excuses (family traditions, it’s too late now, this is what I’ve always done) as the rationale for their reasons not to change.
For me, this realization was incredibly freeing and allowed me to make very fast and radical changes that led to massive improvements in my health in a relatively short period of time. I’m okay with being wrong because I like to think I learn from my mistakes. I’m also not married to any ideas, concepts, or traditions.
Being able to take direct control of our health just by changing the actions we take every day is a positive in my book, but in a culture that shirks personal accountability and responsibility more and more this can be viewed as a negative.
Optimistic statement #4: The sicker you get, the stronger and richer the conventional medical system becomes.
Our conventional “health” system is financially incentivized to discourage healthy actions which is why most doctors will tell you that no matter what you eat it won’t really help. Doctors don’t know any better because they were taught to prescribe surgeries or pills, and critical or independent thinking is largely discouraged at all levels of education. Rote memorization and dutifully repeating what were told in the classroom is what is rewarded.
The health of the conventional medical system improves the more your health suffers. Some may view this as a pessimistic statement, but it's the truth. Sickness and suffering is profitable, good health is not.
However, we’re not broken creatures who are captives of our genes, and destined for a life of constant medical intervention. Our bodies are designed to be healthy and are quite resilient if we give them what they need.
Once you understand the perverse motivations in the processed food and medical industries, it’s easier to see through the lies and marketing gimmicks, and make the necessary changes that starve these demonic beasts.
Optimistic statement #5: The system is failing!
I’m specifically highlighting the current medical system, but this could just as easily apply to our monetary system, economy, government and social structure. This is what happens when we go through a Fourth Turning.
For those who have been inculcated in the system, the idea that it’s failing is scary shit. It’s likely that their careers and livelihoods depend on the system remaining in place although it’s ultimately destructive in the long run.
When the system finally collapses, everybody will experience some pain, including me. But the short term pain will be more than worth the long term gains for individuals and society as a whole.
The system has actually been failing for quite some time, but now more and more people recognize that the system is on the verge of collapse. It’s why we see government agencies around the world taking the same actions in order to prop up this dying system. These actions include shutting down the speech from once celebrated doctors and scientists who are now being labeled as misinformation disseminators.
Ironically, one of the biggest things contributing to the rotting our society is also allowing dissent from these “mis-informationists” to spread. Social media and other like technologies, for all of their downsides, can bring light to the darkness and is the real reason why politicians want to curb free speech on these platforms.
And we do indeed live in dark times not too dissimilar to the Dark Ages when the Church was desperate to maintain control over the masses and limited access to information. Instead of being directed to listen to the high priests who have a direct channel to God, we now have people like Neil deGrasse Tyson and Bill Gates who try to convince us that we are supposed to trust the experts who will consult with The Science and then tell us what to believe.
We must ignore our own eyes, ears, and experiences. We’re too dumb and lowly to communicate with The Almighty Science ourselves so we must rely on them.
But the collapse is happening and we see it in the rise of a parallel system. More people are looking for alternatives to a conventional medical system that offers incredibly expensive yet poor returns. More doctors, such as Drs. Peter McCullogh, Robert Malone, and Aseem Malhotra are now questioning the very basis upon which their professions are built.
The COVID shenanigans has them looking into other vaccines and beginning to realize that what they were taught and believed for years was based on lies. This is particularly interesting when you consider that Robert Malone was one of the inventors of some of the basic mRNA technology upon which the failed COVID shots were built.
Don’t get me wrong there are some amazing things about conventional medicine from which we benefit. Antibiotics for example, as well as surgeries that can put people back together after devastating accidents.
But these were developed from battlefield applications for acute conditions. Pills and surgery are the hammer looking for a nail. When all you have is a hammer, all you see are nails.
Chronic conditions are a whole different ball game. Surgeries and pills do not correct the underlying conditions, they only mask the symptoms.
Dr. Zach Bush was on a recent episode of Dr. Paul Saladino’s podcast. During the discussion, Dr. Bush, who is a triple board certified physician in internal medicine, endocrinology, and hospice care, shared a story from his conventional medical career that ultimately changed his career trajectory.
While he was doing chemotherapy development, he had a female patient who asked him how the pills he was trying to get her to take had anything to do with the reason why she got cancer. In that moment, he realized that these treatments have absolutely nothing to do with why people get cancer.
Cancer is simply a symptom of disease, and cancer treatments only treat the symptom, not the cause. Dr. Bush changed his focus to trying to identify the root causes of cancer and how to prevent or reverse it.
Dr. Shawn Baker is another doctor who has turned his back on conventional medical approaches. As an orthopedic surgeon, he realized that many of the issues his patients had were the result of their poor diet. He decided that he wanted to focus more on prevention, but the hospital system he was with at the time tried to take away his career as a result. Prevention is not profitable, surgeries are very profitable.
He fought the hospital and got his license reinstated, but no longer practices instead focusing on lifestyle solutions that pay far greater dividends for his customers. Why do doctors such as these give up incredibly lucrative careers? Because they know the difference between right and wrong and that is more important to them than money or some ego-driven career.
As time goes, we’ll see more people and medical professionals waking up and turning their backs on a broken and irreparable system. Something else will rise in its place, and we as individuals can have massive influence on what that is exactly.
What that new system will ultimately be I do not know, but I do know that the current system will die. How exciting is that?!
