This is not confirmed. We were never able to verify this. We need to subpoena FB to discover if this was ever actually posted. No one checking this arrived before her pages were scrubbed and locked down.

Speak truth to power

Just keep doing that, and in a few short years you'll be there. You'd be amazed how mnay opportunities there are to speak truth before this power or that - your supervisor, your parents, some stranger asking you to x or y - that people choose to deflect to preserve the tranquisility of the interaction rather than to seize the opportunity to speak truth.

Stop shirking, start speaking.

Why reply?

Because I enjoy talking shop more than I enjoy the systematic line by line depacking of the full picture. This is my wheelhouse, I know what's going on here, and I'm happy to tell you why it's not what you think. But if convincing you requires me to do a ton of work I don't want to you can piss off and go be wrong, I don't give a shit. I'm not reading a bullshit article poorly quoting a scientist whose actuall full contextual position I'm going to have to go digging to find, which is almost guaranteed to say exactly what I think it says.

Not when I can just talk about the subject matter. The subject matter is interesting, the bullshit around it isn't. I added caveats because caveats are warranted.


"My plumbing is doing this weird thing. Maybe it's x. Ooh, I bet it's y!"

It's z.

"Look at Mr Plumber over here. Well I won't believe it until you physically look at my pipes first."

Piss of, I'm not doing work today. My feet are up.

"The other plumber said y"

No, that's just what you heard. Or they're retarded. You wanna talk plumbing we'll talk plumbing. You want me to do work we're done.

Lockdown and shelter in place = no one look around while we do shit we don't want you to see.

Whether this is for good or ill I can not say.

That's not a confession. Confession is when you admit to personal acts.

I don't confess that you robbed a bank.

By using the word confess, it primes the reader to attribute more weight to the accusation. A confession is far more likely to be true than an accusation. Language fucking matters, we aren't communists.

Plenty of scientists are idiots. And even more are loose with definitions and how they present things for layman consumption - and 'layman consumption' includes whatever reviewer their paper will be put before in their quest for journal publication.

But I get what she's saying here in this case. And there is good value to unpack, it's just wildly hyperbolic and speculative.

The spike protein is NOT a prion protein. But it may cause other innate proteins to go off pathway and misfold in a way that itself is self perpetualizing and detrimental. Thing is, that's speculative at best even with phenotypic observation. Because even a self perpetualizing process is not itself indicative of a prion protein; a misfolded protein that itself can be solely repsonsible for this self perpetualization. Lots of complicated pathways end up in self sustaining disregulation, and this can and does present itself commonly in neurodegenerative disease, but without regard to the disease origins a pathway disregulation can't be shed. You can't just call everything that phenotypically presents this way as prion or prion-like.

Plenty of accute enviornmental factors can produce neurodegerative disease, but we do not refer to them as prions or prion-like for clickbait.

It isn't enough to disregulate and it isn't enough to affect the brain to call something prion-like. Because in the end, all viruses both mild and deadly naturally take you off pathway regardless of whether a single protein of theirs is introduced with an mRNA vaccine or if you just get infected 'naturally'. Disregulating pathways is how they take control of a cell and redirect it for their own ends. That's not a prion-like capacity. We're destroying the utility of the word prion here.

A more accurate headline would be, "Viruses may be responsible for many disregulation diseases even with accute exposure as the disregulation self sustains post exposure ... and therefore don't fucking introduce proteins with these regulatory features unless you know what it does and where it goes first"

Which is why inactivated viral particles with useless genetic material make for great vaccines and and mRNA coding for a viral protein that can end up anywhere in you is fucking ridiculous. But the spike protein is not a prion protein. And it isn't inducing a prion disease just because all neurodegenerative disease presents similarly at the cellular level even with disparate origins and causes. I mean, maybe it is, but no it fucking isn't.

Ok, let's end the rant with science. Falsifiabiliy. If the spike protein is inducing prion disease, then someone who is exposed to the spike protein would develop disease, and then would be able to communicate this disease by shedding proteins other than the spike potein (which they themselves don't produce, because they weren't vaccianted). That is what you would expect to see. There is no evidence for this, they aren't looking for this, they don't expect this to be the case, they are using prion in a stupid shitty layman way to get click-baity attention.

Or maybe I still misunderstood because I'm happy to write a scathing review of their headline but won't take the time to read the actual article. Maybe it's another shit science article written by an idiot that clinged to one off hand specualtive comment and ran with it for shoick value. Who knows, it's my day off, I don't want to do work today. I'm not clicking shit and reading today.

Source: I do neurodegenerative and antiviral drug discovery. I've worked with MIT grads who did not impress me, and MIT grads who were happy to mouth wild speculation without realizing people were going to take it as gospel.

There are lots of ways to fail the system, lots of ways help your kids.

Teach them the truth and you may not last long. Teach them to find the truth for themselves and you'll be by their side long after they've left your classroom. No matter what the subject there is an opportunity to enstill healthy skepticism and the skillset to think for themselves. Only those who never learned to recognize truth for themselves abdicate the responsibility to think for themselves to a propoganda box.

The war is long upon us but the battlefield is not what we prepared for. It has come, and it has called you. Answer that call and be lifted by the generations before you who knew burden and bore it to give us the fighting chance we yet still have. Fight hard, and smart, to give your students that same fighting chance.

You're not getting HIV from the vaccine. Time will not tell, right now will tell. HIV is a virus, not a single protein. Just because it does or doesn't cross react with what was an antigen specific antibody test for HIV does not mean you have HIV.

Prion protein:

The spike protein is NOT one. Why do I say that? Because a prion protein is a misfolded protein whose misfolding is regulated by the misfolded protein. In order for it to have a prion effect in you, you must already produce that protein. You do not make the corona spike protein. Now that changes if you get the mRNA vaccine and it ends up encorporated in some number of your cells, but at that point it's not modulating the spike protein to make a variation of the spike protein that further regulates the spike protein into folding into the spike protein because that's alreay what it's doing from inception. It's just the spike protein.

So either you're vaccinated and it's negative affects are going to be with you for some degree of permanence, or you didn't get vaccianted but you are exposed to someone else's spike protein at which point those negative affects are temporary - it's just acute exposure in lower volumes than if you had been vaccinated - it's not going to embedd and alter you in any way.

I've explained this terribly and need to think on how to do this better.

What's this? A study that doesn't under or over dose to fix a negative result?

You're supposed to fail. It's by design. Prioritize materials with no value, and teaching approaches that don't work, so those struggling do worse and those doing well give up.

Understand, on it's own communism doesn't fair well in argument - the alternative arguments win all the time. In practice, in principle. Communism fails morally and it fails in it's results.

So Communism's core approach is to first destroy the functional system it will be compared to so they can blame the functional system for the failures and market communism as a solution.

Communism is the kid who can't paint well so spills paint on other kid's work so theirs don't appear so bad by comparison. Spilling proverbial paint on your teaching is the very goal.

It's not a 'confession' it's an accusation.

She's just reporting irregularities she bore witness to.

Clickbait title to prime your mind for an unsubstantiated conclusion.

ObjectiveReality 13 points ago +13 / -0

STOP

This isn't a 'confession' it's an accusation. She testifieds to irregularities she saw, she's not confessing to being behind or knowledgeable about any impropriety. She's reporting smoke, not confessing to starting a fire.

This is dumb, I locked down in January, this shit got out in nov or dec of the previous year latest. It doesn't take that long to come up with a vaccine path to patent, particularly if you're freaked the fuck out. The time is in the development and testing.

How do you fight to be free when you don’t know you’re a slave?

From this recent interview by Jordan Peterson on North Korean Defector Yeonmi Park

Her observations are stark and shocking. She finally makes it out, gets an education, a real good one, gets accepted to Columbia and while there gets so beaten down by wokeness that she found herself relearning to self-censor herself.

She describes what she's seeing here as "suicide of civilization"

And I encourage everyone reading this comment to reserve the two hours at some point soon to listen to this exchange. It's a modern condensed gulag archipelago.

Agreed. The story is likely crazy complicated.

But he definately didn't kill himself. And like you I'm not convinced he's even dead; it's more likely we have him than someone else.

There is a giant war being fought behind the scenes and it pisses me off that we can't participate. There isn't even a recruitment line. Like, ok, where do I sign up to help the white hats in their clandestine war against evil??

Doesn't fucking matter.

The US recognizes any child born of an american as american, regardless of what some other country has to say about it. US law doesn't cede to some other nation's thoughts on the matter.

If neither of them were US citizens then that's all you had to say.

You have to be a natural born citizen to serve either of those roles.

I thought, like Obama, one of her parents was American.

I thought this was another 'Kenya' thing, which is irrelevant because his mother was American.

It's only propped up by money.

I fear the day when, like NY, our commies finally drive the money away.
