“It is clear that the quickest way to open the people’s eyes, given that a general matter may deceive them, is to make them get down to its particulars.” - Machiavelli [Discourses, I.48]
On Monday, January 2nd, Rasmussen Reports released a fascinating poll, titling their findings, “‘Died Suddenly’? More than 1-in-4 Think Someone They Know Died from Covid-19 Vaccines.” Among other things, the survey showed that 49% of Americans believe that vaccine side effects may have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths. That very night, a 24 year old football player for the Buffalo Bills named Damar Hamlin collapsed on the field after receiving what appeared to be a routine hit. He was given CPR on live television for several minutes before being removed from the field. Fortunately, this young man’s condition seems to be improving. As someone who doesn’t watch sports, I initially thought it just a tragic accident, but it occurred to me that if a routine hit could take down a football player in this fashion, it would have been happening all the time for the last 100 years.
The same people who called those who speculated about if it vaccine-related ghoulish where happy to diagnose, via television, that he had a condition called “commotio cordis.” This condition is extremely rare, happening 20 times a year in the United States, usually when a person is hit with a baseball or hockey puck. Further, the instances in which it does happen are almost exclusively among those who have not reached adulthood, and professional athletes are extensively screened for risk of this sort of heart condition. This is yet another in a long line of life-threatening medical conditions I had never heard of before covid fear consumed our society, which I’m now meant to believe are normal. The NPCs are all in on the commotio cordis diagnosis, but many others are skeptical, forwarding the idea, with varying degrees of respect and discretion, that it was the mRNA “vaccine” which caused Hamlin’s heart to go into cardiac arrest upon impact.
This unfortunate incident, which most of the nation has now seen or heard about, will only increase the numbers reporting a belief in vaccine dangers in future surveys like the one Rasmussen conducted. Increased public belief in vaccine dangers, combined with data showing that mRNA “vaccines” make you more likely to get covid and really do have deadly side effects can mean only one thing: the governments, corporations, media, and other institutions which encouraged, marketed, and mandated the vaccine are facing catastrophic narrative collapse. Perhaps it will finally matter this time, as young, healthy people dropping dead is more than almost anyone can stomach.
In case you didn’t see it, here is the footage of Hamlin’s collapse:
Before I carry on, I should give some of my own background on this subject. I’ve been a doctor-hater and general skeptic my whole adult life, especially as I was forced on unsafe SSRIs as a child. I am also not a disease-fearer, and smoke cigarettes so have a degree of acceptance regarding potential lung problems. Further, I am a non-interventionist in general, and this applies to my entire worldview. These things [combined with my wife’s paranoid and conspiratorial nature] all put me at a distinct advantage for seeing through the fake pandemic from the beginning. I haven’t taken any vaccines as an adult, not because I have zany views or particularly fear them, but because the diseases for which we are supposed to get vaccinated are highly uncommon in our society and rarely dangerous to healthy adults. In short, I recognize that vaccines are inherently a calculated risk and since I don’t fear the diseases, I don’t see a reason to accept any risk from a vaccine. I am fortunate to have access to nutrition and sanitation; if I lived in a refugee camp in Africa, my cost/benefit analysis would be very different. I also simply don’t trust corporations isolated from liability to make a safe product, nor do I trust the government’s advice on medicine or anything else. Well before covid began I had observed a trend of medical fanaticism in our society where people denied that vaccines had any risks, were terrified of easily survivable diseases, and got a smug sense of superiority from their devotion to “the science.” All of this is to say that I was primed to refuse covid shots of any kind well before they existed. The average person was not in this position.
That said, I’m also not particularly good at medical science. In fact, I have resented that all the covid mania has caused me to need learn about epidemiology. However, I know that the premise of “traditional” vaccines is valid- that the small inactive dose can stimulate your immunity, like a safer version of getting the disease itself. But I don’t know what mRNA is, and I don’t want to find out. What I know about are government narratives and lies [I repeat myself] and corruption. It is clear that though covid wasn’t dangerous enough to the general public to mandate or even recommend vaccination, the “traditional” covid vaccines at least somewhat work and are mostly safe.
Alternately, the mRNA shots- so heavily pushed in the wealthy “Western” countries- from Moderna and Pfizer, have vast unknown dangers especially to the young, and are outright counterproductive at preventing covid, more so the more of them you take. And they want you to take many of them- with Biden standing up with leading vaccine profiteers and saying that you “only” need to get one a year. They then released what they called a “bivalent vaccine” and ran commercials in December telling you to get a booster if you hadn’t had one since September. I suspect my friend who quipped that they will want you to get one “vaccine” each fiscal quarter was correct. It’s quite the racket, and it is not some sort of complex conspiracy, it is the most basic form of corruption: get the government to pay you for an unnecessary product. We’re just collateral damage. Further, though at this point I wouldn’t be surprised if in a six months the NPCs are saying “of course the vaccine kills people, here’s why that’s a good thing:”, I don’t think this is part of some sort of depopulation agenda: I honestly think they were just that flagrantly irresponsible in their greed, corruption, and tyranny and thus far have gotten away with it due to public complaisance.
We learned some time ago that the average covid cultist is what I like to call “immune to data.” This, combined with the fact that the government lied and misrepresented numbers in a variety of ways caused me to stop being concerned about most covid data some time ago. However, while there is quite a bit of leeway in policy about how you record cause of death, as well as discretion on the part of the doctor or coroner, deaths themselves are hard to hide. After a genuine pandemic- especially one most impacting the frail- overall deaths should be lower for the next year or two, reflecting that deaths were concentrated during the time of the pandemic, thus the most frail people have already died and there are fewer total people to die. The opposite happened, and deaths are up across mRNA countries. For one example, look at this chart of total deaths in Victoria, Australia, one of the most mRNA “vaccinated” places on Earth. This is typical of mRNA countries. This is partially a reflection of the fact that covid was never a pandemic, but the deaths are also above pre-covid levels.
So here we are, seeing healthy young people drop dead in an unprecedented fashion. One week it is a soccer reporter, another week it is an ABC News producer, now a football player is collapsing. Sure, young healthy people suddenly died of strange health conditions before, but not like this. We’re experiencing a similar phenomenon to when all the high-profile people got what they used to call “breakthrough” infections despite their insistence it was rare. The difference now is that you have to report a death; it’s still not clear why they kept reporting their positive covid tests and then saying “I’m thankful to be vaccinated and boosted.” [I only feel the need to provide the top search result, as you surely remember this yourself.]
They can say whatever they want, but every reasonable person has noticed athletes dying at higher rates. It would be one thing if they had only encouraged people to get vaccinated, but they tried to destroy people’s lives for refusing, and were nasty to a deranged degree. Look at this Canadian op-ed from January 15th, 2022 titled, “The unvaccinated cherish their freedom to harm others. How can we ever forgive them?” From their own numbers you can see vaccines didn’t make deaths go down in Canada- one couldn’t even identify where they were introduced on this chart. And it was all a massive lie, whether or not they try to claim they always said vaccines “won’t prevent infection or transmission.” We all saw Joe Biden say “If you take the vaccine you won’t get covid,” then of course he himself got covid twice in rapid succession.
Now, after all this time of corruption, death, propaganda, and what is popularly called “gaslighting,” we have real evidence that the public is turning against them and their dangerous lies. The Rasmussen survey contains several interesting points which show that one of the largest public pressure campaigns in human history has been an abject failure in the court of public opinion, though it was successful in mass administering the shots and thus generating corporate revenue. To start with, there is the main number: “(49%) of American Adults believe it is likely that side effects of COVID-19 vaccines have caused a significant number of unexplained deaths, including 28% who think it’s Very Likely.” That is over a quarter of the population holding what the media wants us to believe is a lunatic fringe position, with another 21% sympathetic to that position. Further, “Thirty-seven percent (37%) don’t say a significant number of deaths have been caused by vaccine side effects, including 17% who believe it’s Not At All Likely. Another 14% are not sure.” Believing it is “not likely at all” is actually the fringe belief. This means that the CDC’s position, stating, “COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective” [emphasis theirs] has very little currency with the public. These are abysmal numbers given their efforts.
They also found that, “Twenty-eight percent (28%) of adults say they personally know someone whose death they think may have been caused by side effects of COVID-19 vaccines, while 61% don’t and another 10% are not sure.” This is also an incredible number, given that younger people are the most likely to have vaccine related deaths, and it is pretty uncommon for younger people to die of health conditions. I would assume the average person has only known a handful of people who died of medical conditions under the age of 50, and usually they would have had a severe illness such as cancer for some time. That is a lot of people who know someone they believe has died from the shots. Strangely, 48% think there are legitimate reasons to be concerned about vaccine safety, whereas 37% think those concerned are spreading dangerous conspiracy theories; I would be interested to hear from the 1% of people who believe side effects are causing unexplained deaths but don’t think being concerned about the safety of the shots is reasonable.
Some of the other conclusions are not surprising, for example, the unvaccinated think the vaccines are substantially less safe than the vaccinated. Democrats are vaccinated at higher rates than Republicans and independents. 46% of whites are concerned about vaccine side effects, 48% of blacks, and 56% of other minorities, which is surprising as I’m not sure what non-black minority is driving that number. The breakdown by age is remarkable, even knowing the young are the most likely to be harmed: “Younger Americans are less likely to be vaccinated against COVID-19, and 35% of adults under 40 believe someone they know personally might have died from vaccine side effects, compared to 28% of those 40-64 and just 14% of Americans 65 and older.” This is yet another depressing example of the elderly having a brazen disregard for the well-being of the young and simply not believing in the dangers they face.
It is unsurprising that more women than men are vaccinated and believe the vaccine is safe, and further that the married are more vaccinated and pro-vaccine than the unmarried. However, remarkably, 33% of married adults say they know someone they believe has died from vaccine side effects, compared to 23% unmarried. You have to go deeper into the numbers to see it broken down by political party and wealth. Democrats are also more likely to say they know someone who they believe has died of vaccines than Republicans, at 33% and 26% respectively; 22% more Democrats are vaccinated than Republicans. These results imply that the vaccine is dangerous, as people in groups with higher vaccination rates are the most likely to report believing someone they know died from the vaccines. This trend is likely to be under-reported, as it comes from the least vaccine-skeptical groups.
Lastly, there is a massive income disparity in concerns about vaccine safety. Of course, the elite will see this as a sign of how much better they are with their Ivy educations and that it shows the importance of indoctrinating the plebeians, but there are at least a few things going on. For one thing, during lockdowns the wealthy worked on computers and lived on delivered food, brought to them by the poor. This means the working poor were forced to tolerate what covid fear they had under the new caste system while the rich isolated themselves and became increasingly neurotic. This fostered a healthy distrust of authority. More importantly, this wealthy class is the most likely to be what we call “midwits” with Master’s degrees and high paying jobs but few independent thoughts- surveys actually showed people with PhDs are the most “vaccine hesitant” of any education group in our society. Further, the wealthy have generally been treated well by society and thus have or at least feign a good deal of trust in institutional authority. However, the same phenomenon exists within social classes regarding believing someone you know has died of vaccines. The same amount of people [28%] under $30k and over $200k reporting that they believe someone they know have died from the vaccine, despite that over $200k are 24% less likely to believe vaccines have caused a significant number of deaths; those with incomes over $200k are 19% more likely to be vaccinated. I do not believe this can be a coincidence, I think it is as the opening Machiavelli quote shows: people fool themselves about the overall picture of vaccination, but when someone they know dies suddenly they are quick to believe it is vaccine related. This is true even if they form different conclusions about the frequency of such instances.
The challenges these numbers present to the institutional authorities cannot be overstated, and there is every reason to believe it will get worse for them as the harms become better known, and more high profile figures have sudden heart and circulation related health issues. I can’t help but think my same friend with the fiscal quarter quip was right when he said “a real leader would have given us all saline injections in May of 2020 and declared the pandemic over;” it could not possibly have had worse results. The truly crazy pro-vaxxers, such as this woman are now in an extreme minority, and even she is acknowledging it could have been poison:
At the same time, I’m pessimistic about having a proper reckoning. It remains a mystery to me how they’ve kept this going, from the initial misery, to the restrictions mostly ending while their bullshit numbers were as bad as ever, to the CDC finally embracing basic epidemiology, to that woman pathetically begging for “amnesty” without showing contrition, to now where they’re still trying to keep the shots selling in the face of such a high percentage thinking they are making people drop dead. Since no one powerful is ever held accountable in our society, I don’t know why this should be different, but it also can’t go on like this. Though the Republican’s didn’t have the results I expected and hoped for in the election, they should still be in some position to investigate how and why this happened. The Covid part of the Twitter Files has started and we should learn more about Fauci’s malign influence on our discourse. Something is going to give, because the vaccine fanatics and sycophants of authority simply no longer have the numbers, and the public is becoming aware of the enormity of the crimes which have been committed against us. It is long past time to fight back, if you have the heart, and it hasn’t exploded from the weird mRNA shot.

I hope that the silver lining in this disaster is a universal questioning of the government’s narrative on all points. I don’t see how people understand this and simultaneously believe this is a democracy, that’s why we fight wars, and that voting is the pathway to progress.
The current demographic divide in the state of mind you describe here is so glaring: Among the “wealthy (who) worked on computers and lived on delivered food, brought to them by . . .”the working poor. . .under the new caste system while the rich isolated themselves and became increasingly neurotic.” My aged cohorts are paranoid, isolationists, narcissistic, and amnesiac, with a jarring and unwavering air of certainty about all goings on, and talk in sound bites. The more educated the less identifiable sustaining principles, and more battening down the hatches. The poor and workers will chat all day about their lives and what’s dumb and not working, and seem to be doing what’s necessary to survive in the moment with some grit and humor.
Great article - it gives me confidence knowing this tipping point has occurred and now all MSM and governments are in damage control for what they have done. Interesting times ahead after a disturbing 3 years of global tyranny.
