The Battle for Hearts and Minds
In addition to all the other wars this country has been fighting lately, like the war on terror, war on drugs, etc... there is another war we are all on the front lines of, namely the war on words. Words are the construct through which human beings both create and perceive reality. We think in words, not images. Use the right words, and you can influence other peoples reality. In effect, you can control them. Nobody understands this concept better than the oligarchs who run this world, and their mouthpiece, the national media.
Consider the word Vaccine. Built into the word vaccine is the feeling of immunity, safety, and effectiveness. We have been conditioned for decades to believe a vaccine is a good thing. I mean, who wouldn't want a vaccine? So given the choice between calling the Pfizer & Moderna drugs a vaccine, or what they are by definition, a therapeutic; they of course chose to call it a vaccine. Had they called it a therapeutic, or to be more accurate, an untested experimental therapeutic; the percentage of people in this country who would have gotten the jab would be in the single digits. This right here, is the power of words. Marketing it as a vaccine, even though it does not fit the definition, has convinced half this country getting the jab is in their interests.
Its not just the word vaccine either. Bagholder was in a hotel lobby last week where they had CNN blaring. “Lockdowns” have been replaced by “stay-at-home orders”. Think about the difference in those two terms. The former sounds authoritarian, harsh, and involuntary - which it is. Meanwhile, stay at home seems much more palatable, less draconian. We no longer have government "mandates" either, as that also sounds a bit too authoritarian. They have been replaced by health and safety "protocols", as though all of this is somehow, a normal routine.
According to Lord Fauci, we no longer need "clinical trials" to bring drugs to market, instead those pesky trials have been replaced by "rigorous, thorough testing". In fact, Fauci had the temerity to say this rigorous testing is "standard procedure", as though this is how its always been. Anyone bother to ask why vaccines in the past took 13 years on average to get to market, but now that we have rigorous and thorough testing, it only takes 6 months?? I'm certain "Government", errrr, I mean "public health agencies" wouldn't see a problem.
One of the most egregious examples of the war on words revolves around the current CDC definition of "vaccinated". Common sense would dictate anyone who has received their jabs be considered vaccinated. Right? Wrong. If Bagholder gets his 2nd jab, and then drops dead of Covid 10 days later - or even a 100 days later, he is considered by the CDC to have been UN-vaccinated. To be considered vaccinated the final jab must be in your system for more than 14 days and less than 90. With that tight 76 day window, the number of UN-vaccinated deaths from Covid can be goosed higher, while suppressing the number of vaccinated deaths. Even worse, those who drop dead from a reaction to the vaccine (within 14 days), will also be counted as an UN-vaccinated death. This way many of the vaccine hesitant will be scared into taking the jab by the high numbers of UN-vaccinated dying.
This war on words is all around us. The best any of us can do is apply a simple 3 step process. (1) Think critically about what you are being told, (2) consider the source from which those words come, and (3) be aware of who benefits from the action you are about to take because of those words. With regards to getting vaxxed, do we really need an experimental therapeutic with no clinical trials, for a virus killing 1 person in 15,400 under 65? The pharmaceutical companies, Gman, and the media are all saying we do, but then again - they all benefit.
Skip any of those steps above, and you just might end up having to spend more time staying at home with a "rigorously tested safe and effective vaccine" coursing through your veins. Standard procedure of course.
