Updated Thoughts on Covid

Thoughts.

I would like to review my previous “takes” on the covid pandemic, and what my views are now. I consider by category, as follows.

Covid. I always took the disease seriously, from day one, and rejected all of the flubro dismissals. Nearly one million Americans have died, including people I know, and nutcases still make believe that it is all a “hoax.” One thing that I stress is the culpability of China. The absolute best case scenario (that I naively believed at the beginning) was that the virus came from an animal, such as at a “wet market,” or some other example of Chinese disgusting habits and filthy hygiene. That’s the best case. The more likely possibility is a lab leak, due to Chinese Colored Tropical Yellow-Negro incompetence. The Chinese covered up the disease at the beginning and then let Chinese travel internationally, seeding the disease around the Earth. No amount of HBD lies can cover up the responsibility of the Chinese for this pandemic, just as China is responsible for so many other diseases throughout history.

Lockdowns and masks. In the beginning, I supported a degree of lockdowns to “flatten the curve” because that seemed reasonable. However, to have restrictions continuing indefinitely is not reasonable.  On the other hand, let us be honest here – the primary reason why restrictions are continuing in the USA while being loosened elsewhere has more to do with America’s high death rate from covid than it does any deep “globalist agenda.”  And the high death rate is due to vaccine hesitancy and the poor health of many Americans, including the fact that the majority of the American population are fat landwhales.  So, who is to blame?  I also object to spurious comparisons with Sweden, which did fairly well without restrictive lockdowns. Apart from having large, violent non-White populations, the USA and Sweden are hardly comparable, particularly with respect to culture, majority population behavior, obesity, health care, etc. With respect to masks, I am mostly skeptical here; I doubt that masks ever had much utility (that aside from all the contradictory messaging from the System about masks, particularly at the beginning of the pandemic). But I shake my head at the over-the-top hysteria of the Right on this topic.  All sorts of idiots who apparently have no problem with enforced racial integration and mass immigration scream about their “freedom” and make their stand on whether or not they are going to wear a mask going to the supermarket. Really, you morons – if you are fine with your children being attacked and tortured by feral Coloreds in integrated schools, and if you are fine with the entire coercive “civil rights” apparatus, why make a big deal about wearing a “face diaper?” Maybe your priorities are a bit unhinged?

Vaccines. Here is where I have perhaps my biggest problem with the Right, re: covid – the Right's embrace of anti-vaxx hysteria. I will concentrate on the mRNA vaccines here, which have been the predominant ones used in the USA and the primary focus of rightist angst.  It is true that the vaccines are suboptimal, and have become more so with new disease variants. They do not confer sterilizing immunity. They are rather weak and short-lasting (although one wonders if the nature  of coronaviruses make prevention by highly effective vaccines more difficult).  The vaccines have a fairly high rate of side effects (relative to other vaccines), although serious side effects are still relatively rare. Thus, the cost-benefit ratio with the covid vaccines is not as good as with other, more established vaccines. But, the vaccines do help. It is better to be protected by the vaccine than not; the vaccines do afford significant protection against serious disease and death, if nothing else. I particularly object to rightist lies about the vaccine. It is not a “toxic killshot.”  It does not make people more vulnerable to covid; quite the opposite. It is not “gene therapy” – idiots who claim that don’t know what gene therapy actually is. No one is having their “DNA changed.”  And I object to the constant dishonest claims that the covid vaccines are not really vaccines at all but (“experimental”) "therapeutics," because they do not confer sterilizing immunity and mostly serve to prevent serious disease. These lies are coming as they do from people who are too ignorant to realize that there are other vaccines that work similarly.  See thisAnd this. Note as well that “toxoid vaccines” such as that for tetanus and diphtheria are not targeting the disease-causing microbe itself but rather the toxins those microbes produce that cause the symptoms. The tetanus vaccine is not going to prevent the bacteria from getting into a wound, but will allow for antibody recognition of the toxin, preventing the actual disease.  Are those vaccines “not really vaccines” as well?  Can we stop being so goddamn ignorant?  That is besides the point that it is virtually certain that many of these lies are being promoted by foreign actors with an agenda to sow discord in America, and the Luddite Right are easy targets for this propaganda. And when right-wing yahoos claim that their hero Malone "invented mRNA" I wonder if they are mistakung Malone for their Christian God. Hint to the retarded - no one "invented mRNA," just like no one "invented" DNA, proteins, the sun, the moon, or the stars.

The one thing I will agree with the vaccine critics about is that leaky vaccines, such as the covid vaccine, can select (not create, ignorant Luddies – select strains that emerge due to random mutation) for more infective and/or virulent strains, putting the unvaccinated at risk – at least in theory. The solution is not to forego vaccination and put everyone at risk, but rather to get as many people vaccinated as possible (and develop better vaccines, if possible).

And I have to laugh at the hypocritical mendacity of the anti-vaxxers unfavorably comparing the covid vaccines to other vaccines (like the MMR) that the anti-vaxxers have been condemning for decades (“our babies are being sodomized by needles and given autism”).These people are opposed to the same effective vaccines that they compare to the covid vaccines, so as to delegitimize the latter.  What dishonest scum.

Yes, the vaccines are flawed. Yes, there are side effects. Yes, theoretically, perhaps some currently unknown long term side effects will be discovered.  But what’s the alternative?  Leave everyone unprotected and have even more morbidity and mortality? The anti-vaxxers are not providing a constructive alternative other than “let ‘er rip.”

Fauci.  My initial take on Fauci was to give him the benefit of the doubt and defend him from some initial unfair attacks from the Right. However, Fauci quickly demonstrated that he is a fundamentally dishonest turd and a political animal. His snide, passive aggressive jibes at Trump went along with his failure to apply the same lockdown standards to BLM riots and illegal immigrant invaders as what was targeted to White Americans. His errors and contradictory statements about covid and public health have been well documented. Finally, his role in obfuscating the origin of covid in my opinion should land him in federal prison. His semantic quibbling about “gain of function” disgusted me – I’m someone who has actually performed gain of function and loss of function experiments in cell culture and I know damn well that any approaches that enhance/extend the infectivity of a virus is gain of function, regardless of whatever semantic tricks Fauci and NIH use to obscure that fact. Finally, his equation of himself with “science” and his claim that critiques aimed at him are “attacks on science,” is so absurd that he should be a ridiculed laughingstock.  

Overall.  The System’s handling of the crisis, and particularly their messaging to the public, has been completely and utterly inept. The WHO has been atrocious, pathetic lapdogs to the Chinese, and WHO’s behavior, particularly at the beginning of the crisis, contributed to the disease’s spread. In America, both the Left and the Right have behaved atrociously.  At the beginning of the pandemic, Trump and some on the Right were justifiably concerned about the virus, for which they were lambasted as “xenophobic” and “racist” and in Trump’s case “germophobic," while the Left (and Fauci himself initially) dismissed concerns, some leftists telling us to patronize Chinese/Asian businesses and attend Chinese New Year parades. Later, perhaps because someone whispered in his ear that continued concern about covid would harm the economy and impede his chances for re-election, Trump started down-playing the virus, at which point the Left, with their Trump Derangement Syndrome, became covid hysterics, now calling for the most extreme control measures (that did not at all apply to BLM/Antifa protests/riots, which were for some mysterious reason exempt from these control measures). Thus, the two “covid tribes” became entrenched. The Right opposes lockdowns, masks, vaccines (despite Trump’s role in developing them and his promotion of them), while the Left promotes all of that, while opposing the sorts of covid treatments championed by some on the Right. Der Movement, with a few exceptions, have been in the dismissive “flubro” anti-vaxx camp, often accompanied by conspiritard ranting about “toxic killshots” and “viruses don’t exist.”  While the Left has also discredited itself, the extreme Luddite absurd gibbering from the Right, including and especially the “movement,” has aliened educated people, particularly those with STEM backgrounds (even more so those with biological/biomedical STEM backgrounds). Covid has exposed the intellectual and moral bankruptcy of the entire System, of both Left and Right, and, particularly, of Der Movement.

And again, the whining about "freedom" is absurd. Canadian truckers protest vaccine mandates, while their nation has long had no freedom of speech, and has been subjected to mass immigration, with parts of Canada's west coast becoming an appendix of China. How about a "Freedom Convoy" about that, you moronic cowards?  And, of course, the Gab/FOX News crowd scream about "freedom" in a country that eliminated freedom of association with Brown vs. Board of Education and the 1964 Civil Rights Act, aside from mass immigration and social pricing attacks. But when it comes to race, the idea of "freedom" is quietly forgotten.

To gain an understanding of what I oppose, and to also gain an understanding why White America is in such bad shape overall, consider the following.  Since the filthy Negro-loving scum of FOX News block links from here to there, I cannot link to the original article; you will need to find it yourself:

U.S. Air Force veteran Chad Carswell, 38, of Conover, North Carolina, is in desperate need of a kidney transplant to save his life.

But he does not believe that getting a COVID-19 vaccine is the best thing for him…

As we’ll see, this fellow suffers from what I term “The Lathe of Heaven Syndrome” – the scenario in which people think that their private thoughts, opinions, and beliefs create reality and reflect reality – that is common in the “movement” and apparently in the Right as a whole.

…and as a result — because he won't take the vaccine, which is required for transplant candidates by hospitals in his area — he's been denied a life-saving kidney transplant.

Cause and effect. Simple, actually.

"I've had COVID-19 twice," he told Fox News Digital in a phone interview on Thursday, Feb. 3, 2022. 

Which means you can get it a third time, right you moron? Especially if you are on immunosuppressant therapy after a kidney transplant.

That, however, does not seem to be taken into account, he said, by the medical powers that be regarding transplant procedures.

See above.

"I'm blessed," emphasized Carswell. "I'm still here — so as long as I'm here, I still have a chance."

A chance to die?  Well, we all have that chance – no, that certainty – but in this case, death will come earlier than for most, and of his own doing.

Veteran Chad Carswell is shown receiving dialysis, which he takes three times a week. He spoke to Fox News Digital on Feb. 3, 2022, and said, "I'm blessed." He's going to keep fighting for his health and for upholding the freedom of choice in his life and for everyone, he said.

Freedom of choice? If you want to sell or rent a property, and publicly advertise it as “for Whites only” would you have the “freedom” to do so?  Your “freedom” is illusory.

Carswell, the oldest of four in his family, said his parents as well as his family and friends understand his position and support his point of view.

Stupidity is abundant in White America.

"Dialysis days for me are Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Those are hard. They're long days for me. Very draining and very hard on my body. But I'm pushing through them."

Dialysis, however, will only preserve his life for a certain amount of time. A double amputee, Carswell has had previous heart surgeries. He's also had six heart attacks (yes, six). 

Hmmm….bad luck?

Earlier in his life, he weighed over 400 pounds, he told Fox News Digital. 

No, not bad luck, he was a fat bastard with no self-control.

He also suffered from Type 2 diabetes (which is how he lost his legs). 

Gee…I suppose weighing over 400 pounds had something to do with that, no?

But he's been working out regularly and today is 230 pounds. 

Particularly as he is a double amputee, weighing 230 pounds means he is still overweight, unless he is close to seven feet tall (photos suggest he is not).

His diabetes is under control through a careful diet and plenty of exercise, Carswell said; he's taken no medications for that.

Yes, his diabetes is under control so well that his kidneys have failed and he’s lost his legs. I don’t know – maybe he should have done his “careful diet and plenty of exercise” before he got up to 400 pounds and developed diabetes, and, maybe – who knows? – he should have taken medication to prevent the abovementioned catastrophic outcomes.  

His kidneys, though, are operating at 4% effectiveness — and he's been told he will die without a transplant.

That well-controlled no medications-are-required diabetes on display!

Chad Carswell served in the U.S. Air Force from 2001-2005. This photo, which he shared with Fox News Digital, was taken in '01. Carswell was in boot camp when 9/11 occurred and served in Operation Enduring Freedom. 

Enduring Freedom in the Middle East, not in America.

Carswell said, "I am not anti-vax....

He is.

This isn't political. 

It is.

...I'm all about choice...

The hospital chooses not to give you a kidney. They are all about choice.  By the way, with all our “freedom” and all, do White Americans have the choice not to live amongst “people of color?”

...And I believe that anybody who chooses to get the vaccine because they think that it's safe for them and it's what's best for them and their family, plus the boosters — by all means, do whatever you need to do. You're not wrong."

Indeed.

"But me choosing to do the same thing for me [meaning to have his freedom of choice] is the exact same thing as you choosing to do what you feel is right for you. I'm not wrong, either. I have my own opinions."

Your opinions do not shape reality, retard. And by your standards of freedom, choice, and opinion, the medical establishment is completely justified in denying you a kidney.

"I'm a veteran. I fought for this country. And I believe in my right to be able to choose what I think is right for me."

First, you fought for neoconservative Jewboys, not  for "this country." Second, again, the hospital has the right to choose as well, no?

He added, "Do I believe in the vaccine? No, I don't. Do I believe that it works? I don't...

The Lathe of Heaven Syndrome. You moronic buffoon – your beliefs do not create reality.  Your beliefs are not going to convince the medical establishment to change their judgment on this case.

...And I also believe that natural immunities are very, very key to COVID."

And so? How did that work out for you?

"I've had COVID twice," he emphasized. "I have natural immunities for it...

The lack of self-awareness, and even the slightest glimmer of any IQ points, here is astonishing.  He tells us he’s had covid twice but that his “natural immunity” is ever so important. He tells us he doesn’t think the vaccine works, but “natural immunity” – that did not prevent him from getting the disease a second time – is “very, very, key.”  

...For me, it is about the choice of things that are right for me."  

Like weighing 400 pounds, developing diabetes, losing his legs, and destroying his kidneys.

Carswell said he's gotten a lot of support from people far and wide for his positions. But he's also gotten a lot of negativity, he said, from those who question why he would want a transplant when he remains unvaxxed.

Indeed.

He also said, "This is not about me. It's about the world we're going to be living in 10 years from now. And if we don't stand up now, and stop our freedoms and our rights from being taken away from us, then what kind of world are we living in years from now?"

Hey, I don’t know – maybe a world in which Whites have no freedom of association, are having their freedom of speech stripped away, have become subaltern kulaks?  Is that the “freedom” being stripped from us, you unmitigated imbecile?

Fox News Digital asked Carswell about his family and how worried they must be about him, given his situation. 

And given his stupidity.

"I'm very, very close to my dad and my mother," he answered. "My dad is 100% my best friend. And my dad is the reason I'm still here today. I almost died [earlier in his life]. Yet I made it through everything because of my dad."

Why didn’t his Dad intervene sooner to prevent his “best friend” son from destroying his own health?

Chad Carswell of North Carolina (second from left) with some of his closest buddies. "Nobody wants to lose me — nobody wants me to die"…

Really?  Nobody at all?

He talked about his dad serving America as a Marine. 

Irrelevant.

"I was raised right," he said. "My family and I are very, very close, and everyone respects me and is proud of the stance that I've chosen to take. They support me."

He noted that at 38 years old, he is "going to stand by his decision and live my life" as best he can, he said. 

He’s 38 with amputated legs, six heart attacks, and kidney failure, and is on dialysis. Yes, he’s certainly making the decisions to live his life the best he can.

"I've been sharing my story for the last five years, very openly, even before COVID," Carswell said, referring to his personal battle for better health. 

I think that battle has been lost.

"My entire family has been there every step of the way." 

Been there at the dinner table?

Carswell also said, "I'm a firm believer in God and in Jesus Christ. My faith has a lot to do with how I've been able to stand up against [the negative people] out there," he said. 

Let Jaysus give you a new kidney then.

His faith, however, keeps him strong. "Christ tells me 365 times in the Bible, ‘Do not fear’ — so obviously he meant it," he said. 

What did Jesus say about being a sickly fat bastard?

Now, it’s all there – rank stupidity, mind-numbing ignorance, a lack of discipline, The Lathe of Heaven Syndrome, delusion, childish religiousness – is it any mystery how the Jews were able to take America away from idiots like this?  Snatching candy from a baby would be more difficult.

Anyway, what do I propose now?  Assuming Omicron remains the dominant strain and/or future strains are no worse, then I think it high time to just accept living with the disease, end the lockdowns and testing and other strict control requirements, but with one proviso – any unvaccinated adults who contract covid should NOT be treated.  Let their vitamin D, zinc, and “natural immunity” deal with it, and if they recover, fine, and if they don’t, fine too. Stop wasting hospital beds, doctor visits, and therapeutics on people who have voluntarily chosen not to protect themselves as best as is currently possible.  If everyone agrees on that, and if no more virulent strains emerge, then let’s get on with life.
