The Anti-Conceptual Mentality. Why Can’t The Sheep See?

Excerpt:
"a multibillionaire with the influence to do so wants to completely change your life to suit his ideals? And the government wants to inject you with a substance that changes you at the cellular level? This didn’t seem to raise any alarm whatsoever — in fact, they were cheering it on! This brought to mind your article about the “wolves and sheep.” Obviously these people are sheep — but do they even know they’re sheep, and why can’t they see that Gates, Fauci, and Biden are just playing them? And can they ever be “brought around” to be wolves? I don’t care what the likes of Bill Gates, Fauci, and Diaper Joe think — much less want them decide how I “should” live my life. But why can I see this and all these other people can’t? What makes “wrong thinkers” (the wolves) different in that we see though the BS?

The answer is as simple as it is frightening. These people do not want to see. They want to believe. Deeply, in the religious sense. In the sense of the religious fanatic; someone not content to just believe but who insists everyone else also believes – and behaves.

There can be no tolerance of heterodoxy in either faith – which faiths are really the same same faith. They are both Doomsday Cults that preach the imminence of the End Times (e.g., mass death and planetary death) unless the faithful abide and practice the tenets of the Faith. These tenets come down to – obey the priests of the Faith – such as Pope Fauci XVII – without question. They are the conduits of the Holy Will and only obedience will save you."

      I agree that there have been exaggerated statements about the vaccines' possible effects. However, I think the vaccines have not been tested adequately to be safe for wide-spread use especially when there are tested, safe, effective treatments (being suppressed) for the virus the vaccines are supposed to stop.

          "I think the vaccines have not been tested adequately to be safe for wide-spread use especially when there are tested, safe, effective treatments (being suppressed) for the virus the vaccines are supposed to stop."

          The testing of the mRNA vaccine was done on tens of thousands of volunteers and found to be to be safe enough to not kill any of the volunteers but had some side effects as with any vaccine. Thus was approved for usage.
          The treatments that were mostly politically frowned upon were not tested any more than those of the mRNA vaccine. They, too, would have to be used off-scheduled as with the vaccines. MDs are able to prescribe them and anyone is free to self medicate with vitamins and minerals. Those mostly help the immune system to fight the virus. The mRNA causes the production of antibodies against a glycoprotein in the spikes on the virus which are necessary for the virus to enter a cell. That is a way to specifically make antibodies which may also work with a mutated virus. Of course, the treatment with HCQ, zinc, etc. appears to decrease the effects of an infection from the virus but does not keep the virus from entering a cell before antibodies are produced.

            Vacine: No long term testing. Long term effects are unknown as a result.
            HCQ has been used by hundreds of millions for decades.

              As with any drug or vaccine there can be some dangerous and long term side effects. With mRNA vaccines all the side effects will not show up even with very large numbers of trials. As with all medications there is a tradeoff between efficacy and danger as with whether eating that food will satisfy oneself or end up killing even though that tasted good and billions have eaten it without getting ill.
              I am 81 with heart problems and should the vaccine be come available, I will be taking a chance, just as I do every year with flu vaccine, with the vaccine and expect to be one of those without a bad adverse reaction.

                You should have the opportunity to roll the dice for yourself; your choice, your responsibility.
                If negative side effects are the result, then you take responsibility for those, too, because the maker of
                the vaccine has no responsibility by law, and your fellow Americans are responsible for their health, not yours.
                Those who do not take the vaccine should also be responsible for the results of that decision.
                No one should be forced to take the vaccine by anyone, nor should ability to travel via common carriers be affected by that decision.
                Nor should availability or cost of health insurance be affected by that decision except by actual evidence of changes in costs due to the therapies.
                Fat chance anything like this freedom of choice will occur because political forces want to force people to be serfs, and this is one step on that road to serfdom.

                  The only persons who might be forced to take the vaccine are the military personal (though when joining should be told that it is mandatory), school children (if you don't want it send them to a school which does not require it), businesses (get another job if you want to not take it). Parents are most likely to force their child to be vaccinated just as the child is forced to pray, eat certain things, go to bed at a certain time, etc. Otherwise there is no force about taking the vaccine. Of course your friends may ostracize you as would your church or your place of employment might for non-compliance.
                  The society can be pretty crappy sometimes and it is mostly best to just get along with ones own life. Best not to have your hand held by government or even friends, they may stab you in the back if you are not vigilantly aware.
                  You seem to believe that freedom of choice can force others to comply with you non-forceful beliefs.
                  May I ask how long have you been reading the works of Rand and perhaps those who were around her and their sometimes critical views of her but not of her work, though there are those who value her ideas but find things wrong and believe that certain ideas need some rational corrections?

    I'm starting to think this is the natural progression of things - that there's nothing to "fix". Just let it all go to crap. America is full of very stupid people now. They'll get what they vote for. We'll have to wait it out in the gulch as best we can...

    Also...FWIW I've been saying "Vaccines are the new religion" for a couple years now...

    Great article, FFA, thanks for the posting. I believe the following quote sums it all up ... “ That Faith – and the Lords who enforce it – are re-emerging from the darkness of the past and it is welcomed by people who have been prepared to accept it. For them, it is not merely a blessing; it is their salvation...And those of us who do not share the faith – who question the “good news” – are as much their enemies as they are ours.”

    Great article, freedomforall!
    The majority of these sheeps are obtuse. They rather put their confidence and trust in men rather than have a mind of their own.

    I don't know why it's taken so long for some people to recognize that the left has been pushing (apparently successfully) a new religion. The secular humanist elite at the top send down pronouncements labeled as "settled" science, which cannot be questioned, even by real scientists.

    Like most irrational religious tenets, the logical nonsense of such pronouncements are never brought into doubt, because they promise closure without pain or sacrifice, even when they obviously will require a lot of pain and sacrifice. The desirability of the promised nirvana seems to override even the survival instinct among the believers.

    Now we are seeing the next step: the punishment, and possibly even the execution of the nonbelievers by the mass of followers. The "church" hierarchy has declared that violence in pursuit of approved goals is not violence, but righteous protest, while protest against those goals, even when non-violent, is "insurrection."

    The question has to be just how long the real sheepdogs will allow the sheep to blindly follow this insanity. As the results of the craziness cause the collapse of American society, when will the sheep begin to realize they're being led to slaughter? Will it be too late for the sheepdogs to rescue them?

    This is what baffles me too! I have beloved family members that are taken in with this thinking and I just don't get it. I cringe when they agree with things that are so intrinsically wrong! I mourn for their inability to see what is right before their eyes. I just do not get it.

      Unfortunately, (I speculate that) 85% of human beings would rather be dependent serfs than independent, free people responsible for their own fate. Ninety-nine percent of human achievement results from the 15%, imo.
      Rand described it very well in AS.

        There you have it: most are quite content to be recipients of bread and circuses, willing to lose their individuality just to be left alone.

        Remember, only about a third of American colonists actually wanted independence, and fewer than that were willing to sacrifice to gain it. The others mostly just wanted the people shouting "freedom" to shut up and stop making bothersome noise.

    I really believe I have a built-in BS detector. I have yet to run into or hear from any of my friends about their neighborhoods being rampant with COVID. It just isn't happening.

    How do mRNA COVID-19 vaccines work?

    mRNA vaccines are a new type of vaccine to protect against infectious diseases. To trigger an immune response, many vaccines put a weakened or inactivated germ into our bodies. Not mRNA vaccines. Instead, they teach our cells how to make a protein—or even just a piece of a protein—that triggers an immune responseDec 18, 2020

    Chapter VI Miracle Metal to chapter IV Anti-life. pages 532 to 864. Read these pages and be prepared for an awakening of events before you. Everything we discuss on these blogs will become clear. Do not doubt me.

    Most people have no inner monologue. They live life reacting to stimuli. I live life like Kasparov played chess. Always thinking about the next possible moves. Multiple scenarios war-gamed out. It has served me well in life. And my career, which is predicting failure and mitigating the effects as much as possible. COVID came out of left field. But now I know that even when 19 is over, we will deal with 23, 27, etc... Back to the Chess analogy, I can tell you that I see mate in 15. We just don’t have enough powerful pieces. The good news is if we play our cards right the post-match will be much worse for them.

    The future they envision requires altruism on a Herculean scale. And as good objectivists we know that’s not possible. At least one, if not more, of those bastards are angling for a percentage in a world they designed not to have them. Collapse is inevitable. My current extrapolation gives us 15-20 years before our nation fails utterly and is disbanded.
