Ten Reasons the Anti-Trucker and Anti-Consent Crowd are wrong.
or how to become complicit in moral and ethical hazards
Plato, Republic 7, “Allegory of the Cave.”
[Socrates] Imagine once more, I said, such an one coming suddenly out of the sun to be replaced in his old situation; would he not be certain to have his eyes full of darkness?
[Glaucon] To be sure, he said.
[Socrates] And if there were a contest, and he had to compete in measuring the shadows with the prisoners who had never moved out of the cave, while his sight was still weak, and before his eyes had become steady (and the time which would be needed to acquire this new habit of sight might be very considerable) would he not be ridiculous? Men would say of him that up he went and down he came without his eyes; and that it was better not even to think of ascending; and if any one tried to loose another and lead him up to the light, let them only catch the offender, and they would put him to death.
[Glaucon] No question, he said.
(Translation Benjamin Jowett)
Plato’s Allegory of the Cave establishes a binary system of perception, cognition, and knowledge:
Most people do not understand—and they cannot understand— that their perception is based on a False Reality, or a reality of shadow in a Cave, constructed by obfuscated puppeteers, as these people sit shackled, watching the shades of puppets move illuminated by fire upon the wall.
A few people climb out of the Cave and witness True Reality, one without puppeteers or fictive shadows. Their perception, cognition, and knowledge are conditioned on the contemplation of this True Reality.
The crux comes when this newly enlightened person climbs back down into the Cave in order describe the True Reality to those who are immersed in the False Reality.
As the above passage highlights, the darkness of the Cave blinds the newly enlightened person, and he becomes the object of ridicule. The enlightened person is criticized and rejected by the masses of those who exist in the False Reality, and the unenlightened will even put to death those who attempt to enlighten them.
Sound familiar?
This binary division represents our current moment. The advocates of the COVID narrative think those who reject the narrative are unenlightened, as they sit mesmerized by false shadows.
The questioners of the COVID narrative think those who advocate for the COVID narrative are unenlightened, as they sit mesmerized by false shadows.
In an irrational world rationality only means there is less irrationality. Rationality no longer exists.
This is a fact. There is no debate about it. And if you cannot accept this fact, you ought to stop reading now, because you are in the Cave, shrouded in shadows of false reality, and there is no hope for you. Just slink back into the darkness.
This is a fact: the COVID narrative makes no sense, and it never made sense.
COVID Plot Holes:
Covid derived from a Wet Market in Wuhan, likely from some exotic animal, but all of that talk about COVID leaking from the Wuhan Institute of Virology…THAT is a LIE. The origin story was and is based on—at best—an unknown, but the narrative rejected Lab Leak and adopted Bat Soup.
Lockdowns are the only rational option to mitigate COVID. There was NO $cience to back this solution, yet it was adopted. We now know this was the greatest policy disaster in human history, and we knew this from the beginning. But remember, the lockdown was designed to stop the spread so we don’t overwhelm the hospitals. The original COVID policy based on the ridiculous Imperial College Report was never designed to save lives, it merely suggested that a lockdown prolongs the virus, and spreads out the illness and death over a longer period of time so that hospitals are not overwhelmed. It was a mitigation strategy. This original narrative changed: lockdowns to save grandma or to have zero COVID or to slow the surge! The Great Barrington Declaration and the Swedish model were ALWAYS the correct narratives though which to position the policy.
Instead of building mobile spike hospitals—and then invest in increasing hospital capacity to handle a new virus among human populations—we shut down schools, businesses, restaurants, cafes, bars, theatres, festivals, religious celebrations, funerals, weddings, holidays, and other medical treatments. You don’t fix a thing (hospital capacity) by breaking almost everything else. This makes no sense.
The Vaccine is the only solution. We will actively NOT try to find any other prophylactic solutions (criminality incarnate). The Vaccine! Two shots are 95 percent effective (of course, we mean Absolute RISK reduction, not Relative Risk protection, which puts them around less than 1 percent effective; as an aside, like this study linked above, I too ran the numbers on the PFIZER study. The real finding of the study was that out of nearly 50,000 experimental participants around 150 total acquired COVID. The entire narrative of vaccine effectiveness is based on 150 people). Oh wait! The vaccines lose effectiveness! And you can still acquire and transmit the virus! But ignore what we first said that you are taking the vaccine to protect GRANDMA, you are taking it for yourself! You are going to die of COVID if you are NOT vaccinated. Everyone is at risk! Don’t ask what we mean by RISK you anti-vaxxer! Oh wait! Take a Third Shot or even a Fourth SHOT, and ignore the fact that the virus mutates! That mutation is the anti-vaxxers’ fault anyway! Roll up your sleeve! It is inanely tiring, isn’t it?
In addition to vaccines we must employ vaccine passports, medical apartheid, discrimination, and demonization against those who practice Informed Consent. These are the solutions! Discrimination and tearing of the social fabric are the only solutions! AND the VACCINES!
Everyone is equally at Risk. There is NO difference in outcomes! You are all going to DIE. Vaccinate the Babies! Take children away from unvaccinated parents! Death, Death, Death, Death.
This will never end, until everyone is vaccinated and is participating in the vaccine passport system! Death, Death, Death, Death.
Don’t wear a mask! Wait, I lied! Wear a mask! What kind of mask? It doesn’t matter! Make your own, or wear a cloth mask or a surgical mask or a N95 mask!
No, Wear Two masks! or EVEN THREE! Are you vaxxed? No need to wear a mask! Oh wait, you need to keep wearing one! Oh wait, cloth masks don’t work! Surgical masks don’t work? Only N95 masks work! Wait, just wear the mask! The Science was always clear. ALWAYS. You could have read study after study after study on mask effectiveness prior to COVID. They all agreed. Only N95 masks had any real efficacy, but it is nearly impossible on a mass scale to employ these in any meaningful way. This was always the Science. Any story that ran counter to this was false. Even now, 95 percent of people are wearing a thing on their face that has nearly no efficacy with respect to COVID transmission. There is no debate.

The narrative simply does not make sense. Irrational, non-sensical narratives require a grounding in the language of virtue and goodness in order to appeal to individual’s sense of emotional nobility, even if the language of virtue and goodness has no basis in reality. Virtutem Signans.
10 Reasons why the Anti-Trucker and Anti-Consent Crowd are Wrong.
They have followed an ever-changing narrative uncritically, in a state of total and complete cognitive dissonance, without ever revising their interpretation of the narrative.
They are very afraid. Fear wholly annihilates the rational mind. They simply have stopped thinking. Their minds perpetuate phraseology handed over to them by a Big Pharma marketing campaign.
They use analogical thinking in order to prop up their position. This is the “Hey apples, what about these Oranges!” form of cognition. They compare vaccines to seat belts, for example, not at all realizing how RIDICULOUS their analogies are (clink the link and listen to the whole conversation).
They think the vaccines are 100 percent reward and 0 percent risk. They ignore VAERS or any expert who suggests that there may be issues with these particular vaccines. They are more concerned with losing social virtue among their peer group than they are at being rational and thoughtful practitioners of their own health.
They ignore all data such at that below. They have no real idea of their own risk based on aggregate data.
The data are clear with respect to the age of bodies most at risk of COVID; those with comorbid bodies are far more at risk from COVID than those without any cormibidity . Of the 13,336 deaths with/from COVID in Quebec only 299 (.02%) total have been among people with zero comorbidities and the vast majority of those deaths have been found in people over 60. If you divide this by the 820,000 people who tested positive for COVID the non-comorbid death rate goes down to .0003%. Fact: if you have no comorbidities it is EXTREMELY unlikely that you will have a negative outcome from COVID.
They adopt behaviours that have no scientific basis in reality, but they do not question these behaviours because they have adopted the New Normal, such as vaccine passports.
They are wholly demoralized and have succumbed to the unethical employment of nudging, that used fear and hysteria to compel behaviour. Demoralized people lack any rational ability to mitigate their damaged psychological state. We are not to trust them.
Most of these individuals live very privileged lifestyles and have the capacity to make an income by moving their work online. They have largely been immune from the profound and vast horrors that are the hallmark of lockdown policy. They embody the ethos of champagne socialism.
They still think that vaccination is the only solution to COVID, not that COVID policy from the get go was wrong. They are against informed consent and those who practice informed consent. Rather than understanding the moral and ethical underpinnings of informed consent, they would rather practice character assassination, and call people who practice informed consent “anti-vaxxers” or “anti-science.” They cannot comprehend how someone might come to a different health decision than them. They are incapable of tolerating intellectual diversity or diversity of opinion. They ignore experts like Professor Ehud Qimron, head of the Department of Microbiology and Immunology at Tel Aviv University, who wrote the following:
Ministry of Health: it’s time to admit failure
In the end, the truth will always be revealed, and the truth about the coronavirus policy is beginning to be revealed. When the destructive concepts collapse one by one, there is nothing left but to tell the experts who led the management of the pandemic – we told you so.
Two years late, you finally realize that a respiratory virus cannot be defeated and that any such attempt is doomed to fail. You do not admit it, because you have admitted almost no mistake in the last two years, but in retrospect it is clear that you have failed miserably in almost all of your actions, and even the media is already having a hard time covering your shame.
You refused to admit that the infection comes in waves that fade by themselves, despite years of observations and scientific knowledge. You insisted on attributing every decline of a wave solely to your actions, and so through false propaganda “you overcame the plague.” And again you defeated it, and again and again and again.
You refused to admit that mass testing is ineffective, despite your own contingency plans explicitly stating so (“Pandemic Influenza Health System Preparedness Plan, 2007”, p. 26).
You refused to admit that recovery is more protective than a vaccine, despite previous knowledge and observations showing that non-recovered vaccinated people are more likely to be infected than recovered people. You refused to admit that the vaccinated are contagious despite the observations. Based on this, you hoped to achieve herd immunity by vaccination — and you failed in that as well.
You insisted on ignoring the fact that the disease is dozens of times more dangerous for risk groups and older adults, than for young people who are not in risk groups, despite the knowledge that came from China as early as 2020.
You refused to adopt the “Barrington Declaration”, signed by more than 60,000 scientists and medical professionals, or other common sense programs. You chose to ridicule, slander, distort and discredit them. Instead of the right programs and people, you have chosen professionals who lack relevant training for pandemic management (physicists as chief government advisers, veterinarians, security officers, media personnel, and so on).
You have not set up an effective system for reporting side effects from the vaccines, and reports on side effects have even been deleted from your Facebook page. Doctors avoid linking side effects to the vaccine, lest you persecute them as you did with some of their colleagues. You have ignored many reports of changes in menstrual intensity and menstrual cycle times. You hid data that allows for objective and proper research (for example, you removed the data on passengers at Ben Gurion Airport). Instead, you chose to publish non-objective articles together with senior Pfizer executives on the effectiveness and safety of vaccines.
Irreversible damage to trust
However, from the heights of your hubris, you have also ignored the fact that in the end the truth will be revealed. And it begins to be revealed. The truth is that you have brought the public’s trust in you to an unprecedented low, and you have eroded your status as a source of authority. The truth is that you have burned hundreds of billions of shekels to no avail – for publishing intimidation, for ineffective tests, for destructive lockdowns and for disrupting the routine of life in the last two years.
You have destroyed the education of our children and their future. You made children feel guilty, scared, smoke, drink, get addicted, drop out, and quarrel, as school principals around the country attest. You have harmed livelihoods, the economy, human rights, mental health and physical health.
You slandered colleagues who did not surrender to you, you turned the people against each other, divided society and polarized the discourse. You branded, without any scientific basis, people who chose not to get vaccinated as enemies of the public and as spreaders of disease. You promote, in an unprecedented way, a draconian policy of discrimination, denial of rights and selection of people, including children, for their medical choice. A selection that lacks any epidemiological justification.
When you compare the destructive policies you are pursuing with the sane policies of some other countries — you can clearly see that the destruction you have caused has only added victims beyond the vulnerable to the virus. The economy you ruined, the unemployed you caused, and the children whose education you destroyed — they are the surplus victims as a result of your own actions only.
There is currently no medical emergency, but you have been cultivating such a condition for two years now because of lust for power, budgets and control. The only emergency now is that you still set policies and hold huge budgets for propaganda and psychological engineering instead of directing them to strengthen the health care system.
This emergency must stop!
They are shackled in Plato’s Cave. They think the shadows they see are the True Reality. The Puppeteers construct their world view. They band together to destroy anyone who escaped the Cave and has returned in order to illuminate them.
They are complicit
They are complicit in medical apartheid.
They are complicit in discrimination.
They are complicit in the violation of constitutional rights.
They are complicit in the demonization of those who disagree with them.
They are complicit in perpetuating the narrative.
They are complicit in promoting the moral and ethical hazards of vaccine passports.
They are complicit in embracing the biomedical STATE.
They are complicit in adopting an incoherent narrative based on fear and hysteria.
They are complicit in elevating leaders and “experts” who lacked the wisdom and enlightenment to lead humanity through this moment of crisis.
They are complicit in the massive rise in rape, incest, sexual violence, domestic abuse, alcohol and drug abuse, obesity, educational deprivation, poverty, homelessness, and child abuse, not to mention the total rending of the social fabric caused by Lockdown Policy.
They are complicit.
Their arrogance will not allow them to acknowledge their complicity.
This is who they are now.
They are the New Normal.
