Vaccines. I noticed around a year ago that suddenly I wasn’t being asked my vaccine status when I went to the doctor, dentist or hospital. It was like the question about and importance of the vaccination message had never existed. It went from prime importance to non existence in a very short period of time. Memory hole.
The message must have gone out from Cabal Central to drop the topic because of pending publicly visible issues that can’t be whitewashed.
I remember talking to a leftish acquaintance early in the pandemic. He was ranting about the importance of vaccines, social distancing, masks, etc. When he finished I quietly asked him one question- how will you feel when you learn that everything they told you was a lie? He laughed.
Sadly I am sure that even though he now sees the truth in the question, he will never admit it because he is a lemming.
I told a young man in his mid 30s who was trying to get approval for a Latin Mass in our parish that it takes the energy of young people along with the cash from the aged like me to make it happen. It is going to take a large number of younger (20-50 year olds) to succeed in pushing back on this madness. The aged like myself need to work to inform them. Substack authors like you, Elizabeth, are profoundly important. Thank you. Excellent piece today.
Wonderful piece, and I read the whole “Camelot” review you tagged as well. This is a war, a war on many fronts. It involves spiritual warfare so don’t forget to pray!! Speak the truth in love. Be honest and kind in your conversations, always having an answer for the hope that lies within you. Be as gentle as doves and wise as a serpent. Be anxious for nothing. Do not be afraid.
I just had my annual physical with my young super smart, nerdy doc who tries very hard to be personable. E.g. when was last time you heard someone say “OkeeDokee”. At least 5 times I tried to tell him how not vaccinating has isolated me, cut me off from all the groups I was part of. No comment, nothing. But finally I said, I don’t trust most of healthcare now because of these vaccines. Nothing! But now he knows.
I’ve been struggling for 2 weeks now to write what is on my mind. I keep vacillating between detail and broad brush simplicity. What is happening right in front of us is ignored by so many. I want to scream wake up foolish peasants. WAKE UP!!! It’s time to get your pitchforks and torches! But alas they are to busy stopping at Starbucks before heading to Target. Elizabeth thanks for doing your part to spread the word. Thank you for your inspiration. Now I need to knuckle down this weekend and do my part by putting pen to paper.
EN, thank God for you and this community of THINKING people you are building. A friend told me to be sure to read the comments at the end of this one because so many are profound. I'll add to that—they are inspiring, too.
Hey, push back. Last week I publicly called a mother a criminal for allowing her minor daughter to have a double mastectomy in service to her psychological problems. Like many, I didn't wear masks and didn't take the medical experiment that enriched Pfizer and your government employees(but I repeat myself Scott Gottlieb).
You now, really, have nothing to lose but your freedom. Act accordingly. The ATF just wrote a 'rule' about shooting braces - Marbury v Madison clearly shows they cannot do this as it infringes on you constitutional rights. Push back. Tell the truth.
Another thing they do is demoralize young people. I keep reading ‘it was easy when baby boomers were growing up’. Not for my caste it wasn’t. Right now business wise it is the most exciting time ever to be young. I have never seen such a time of opportunity. Yet the average 30 year old mopes around like they are serfs in medieval times. And then push politically for regimes that are actually trying to do that.
Interesting tangent. It has been 30 plus years since Russia thew off the the yoke of Marxism. Since then - ostensibly free - have they produced any literature to rival Dostoyevsky or Tolstoy?
Music that compares to Tchaikovsky or Khachaturian?
Pasternak and Solzhenitsyn did, but then, they were free in their minds and wrote in direct opposition to the regime.
How many generations will pass before Russia's cultural genius revives?
Marxism destroys more than lives and economies.
Let's go further down the rabbit hole. How very convenient that the continual demonization of Russia prevents their experience from serving as a warning to others...

Thank you for another excellent, very thoughtful, essay. I got Stella Morabito's book out of our library to read on my Kindle this afternoon.
Morabito is another gem of a thinker and writer filled with knowledge, common sense and intellectual depth about where certain hostile elements are leading our culture.
I have not visited a GP for many years. I was married to one for 18 years so I understood that it was all a scam. She tried to get me to take statins and I said no way. Now, research shows that it damages the brain. I bet your doctor won't tell you that.

As Tucka says, "telling the truth... feels good."

Very powerful, definitive peice.

Again, thank you!
What psychopaths fear most is loss of control...
Everything gets weaponised for use to obtain and secure control:
Psychology. Technology. The Economy. Linguistics. Ridicule...
Everything !

First of all, I want to thank you again for this Elizabeth! You and your readers also ought to know that Hillary Clinton's recent Atlantic article CO-OPTS THE TITLE OF MY BOOK to frame a completely different and propagandistic narrative. So far, I've written about it here: https://thefederalist.com/2023/08/11/yes-hillary-clinton-knows-a-lot-about-the-weaponization-of-loneliness/ And also here: https://stellamorabito.net/2023/08/12/hillary-clinton-and-the-weaponization-of-loneliness/ Until now, the phrase "The Weaponization of Loneliness" was unique to my book.
Brilliant, very well said.
"the psychopaths that run us"
So true: if you fail to commit the insane, they will end up leading you.
