Treason of the Experts

The Treason of the Experts: Foreword

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Prepare yourself for a real adventure, one that seems often more like fiction than reality. It is inconceivable that a book like this could have appeared only a few years ago. No one would have believed it if it had. But these are extraordinary times and they require extraordinary and brave minds to operate as tour guides, as with Dante and Virgil. The treason of experts has indeed landed us in very dark places but we can see our way out with the truths elucidated herein.

WHO a threat

The WHO Has Changed and Now It is a Threat

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

We can meekly accept this new disease-obsessed world, some may even embrace the salaries and careers it bestows. Or we can join those fighting for the simple right of individuals to determine their own future, free from the false public goods of colonialism and fascism. At the very least, we can acknowledge the reality around us.

Whatever Happened to the Healing Power of Positive Thinking? 

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

How did belief in the natural healing power of the body and mind get replaced by hysteria, panic, iatrogenesis and a fanatical reliance on Big Pharma? What black hole did all the hippies and granola-types fall into, the people I spent much time with as a kid, while helping my mother at our local food co-op?

Biden’s Sham Compassion for His Covid Persecution Victims

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The Biden administration will end the vaccine mandate for health care workers on May 11. But don’t expect politicians and bureaucrats to honor the “First, Do No Harm” rule in the future. Inside the Beltway, federal edicts will likely continue to be “close enough for government work” to sane health care policies.

The Problem of Lost Knowledge: Antibiotic Edition 

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

All of this adds up to a grim picture of mass but often preventable deaths, all because the system did not work to incorporate the previously existing wisdom we learned from a century earlier. We needed merely to rely on the known information gathered from previous periods of history. The system utterly failed and for reasons having to do with regulatory capture and mass panic. Instead, they embarked on a population-wide experiment that created an unfathomable amount of suffering. And they still haven’t admitted it.

The Trouble with the Center

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The Japanese say that “The nail that sticks up will be hammered down.” The unwillingness to question the many absurd, destructive mitigation measures reflected a fear of being ostracized or labeled “an extremist.” Passive Americans were far too willing to placate the actual extremists who supported locking down a country, closing schools and testing, masking and vaxxing everyone.

Walensky

Dr. Walensky’s Dishonorable Acts

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

Even as the pandemic fades, the CDC and the administration have now realized they hold immense power over Americans’ daily lives. Huge numbers of individuals, influential corporations and administrators will outsource their decision making to CDC recommendations. No matter how ineffective people like Walensky have proven to be.

My Transition from Nuclear to Covid

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

The case for nuclear weapons rests on a superstitious belief of magical Realism in the utility of the bomb and the theory of deterrence.  The extreme destructiveness of nuclear weapons makes them qualitatively different in political and moral terms from other weapons, to the point of rendering them virtually unusable. Like the emperor who had no clothes, this might well be the truest explanation of why they have not been used since 1945.

The Specter of Human Extinction 

SHARE | PRINT | EMAIL

A new genre in philosophy made its appearance not too long ago. It is called ‘extinction theory’ or the ‘philosophy of extinction,’ and as the name indicates, it is predicated on the real possibility that the human species may cause the extinction of what it means to be human and that it may actually become extinct as a species.
