Here is an article by Steve Kirsch, which provides the context for the post above, in which Reuters “fact-checked” a speech of mine.
I would add this. Those speaking out lost out: reputation, friends, valuable business contracts, 100% of our private as well as family time, for years. Some implied our lives were at risk (I never worried about that, because our lives are definitely more at risk if we do nothing, though I suppose it’s possible).
Meanwhile, the disgusting liars in the media, governments, public health officials & commercial enterprises got our money & lots of it, while protecting each others miserable backs, like the jackals of humanity that they are. They risked nothing, & had their usual weekends & holidays off.
Those who insult us and call us conspiracy theorists, grifters & attention-seekers, know this:
1. There is a conspiracy. There’s nothing theoretical about it. You don’t lock down most of the world in a coordinated manner, this technique never having been part of any nations pandemic preparedness plan, over a few weeks, without an overarching, supranational strategy. Change my mind.
2. Most of us have neither sought nor received a penny in almost three years. I fit that description. I’ve also spent half a million dollars just moving around different countries, when I did think there was a non-zero risk of being interned (this would not have suited me & I wasn’t going to go easily). Define grifter and fit any of us to it. You won’t be able to.
3. I dislike publicity. That’s consistent with my entire life being lived very privately, speaking at professional events only. No campaigns to save trees. Not involved in local politics. I’m used to being recognized now, and there’s been no occasion where it wasn’t embarrassing to me. I’m just doing what I used to do, trying to work out how things are & how to adjust them towards better & using pretty much the same scientific skills. It’s merely the context that’s very different. I’ll be delighted to slip back into the shadows as soon as sufficient numbers of people get involved. There is definitely a sea change happening.
Best wishes & thanks,
Mike
