... about 2 or 3 years ago, when I was still on Plebbit... noticing that there was a clear and severe astroturding campaign against "anti-vaxxers."
It struck me as incredibly strange at the time, virtually all subreddits got infiltrated with "pro-vaxxers" who would take every opportunity and do everything they could to insert jokes about antivaxxers or somehow relate every post to pro-vaxxing propganda. And this was on subreddits thay had absolutely nothing to do with vaxxing or health or anything.
Like I said, it struck me as extrenely noticeable as an organized campaign and seemed incredibly strange at the time.
Sure seems funny, looking back on it now.
I had noticed this. Also on youttube comments and elsewhere, there was always "anti-vax" jokes. And when they want to talk about some low IQ person, they would instead call them "anti-vax mum" or some such thing.
In the media, there were all these subtle stories of measles outbreak, and how a pregnant lady almost lost her unborn, because she came in contact with someone who was not vaccinated, blah blah.
Infact, I never took it seriously, until one day I said "to heck with it, let me see what kind of nonsense they use as an excuse for saying vaxx causes autism" and when I dug even a little bit, what I found was amazing. The moment I found out that legally, it had been established that there is a small set of kids with a mitochondrial condition that, when vaxxed are very highly prone to getting autism, my mind was blown away.
And then the more I dug into the more I found stuff, the whole vaxx injury court, the government witness - pro-vax doctor - who refused to make a blanket statement that autism is not caused by vaccines, and how they told him not to show up to the court but instead misrepresented his statements and ended up getting sued by him, which lead legal trail all over the place.
Then I opened my mind to listen to Robert Kennedy Jr, and after hearing what he had to say, I sat down my wife and told her that we might have made a mistake vaccinating our son. We are both Asian, and no one in our combined families have peanut allergy - and there he was, developed peanut allergy and it was the darndest thing - we never understood it. Now I think it was probably triggered by the vaccines he was given. When I read about how much healthier unvaxxed kids are compared to vaxxed, it breaks our heart that we didn't give him the best start in life.
Yeah, that and the boomer meme. Came from nowhere
It's apparent now they were testing the waters to see what the most effective arguments were, either for or against, and how to counter them.
Sick, evil people with an agenda do that, not normal people who just want to live life.
This crap is insidious and everywhere.
I used to be on a car forum that was all about performance, handling, etc. but there were also open discussion threads. One day posts start showing up about how anyone that wants to keep using cash is probably a criminal and why wouldn't you want to use your debit card to pay? The discussion kept coming back to you being a criminal if you wanted to hang onto cash and if you weren't doing anything wrong why would you care if there was a transaction record? Weird.
I finally looked at the poster's history and none were new. All their posts were rather generic but it gave them a solid post count so they looked like regulars. There were at least 3 profiles, likely all from one person but they'd been up more than a year before they started posting how great cashless would be. This in 2005, in a car forum, with maybe 500 active users. How long has this shit been going on?
I am not anti-vaccine either but I am anti-needless drugging. If you have a healthy immune system, good diet & exercise, your body will do most of the heavy lifting automatically. It can't always though, polio for example. But the whole "flu shot" BS just seems like the full-employment act for the drug companies.
What do you think the whole 2015 measles psyop was for?
I noticed the same thing and thought it was so weird. Now here we are and it all makes sense.
I was talking to my wife about this very thing a few weeks ago
