Sage Hana, Again I say, bless you for continuing to tell all who come here what is really going on. To all who read here, this writer is so gifted at recognizing this op, putting it all together for us. I am so grateful. Thank you, Sage Hana, for supplying links to the Day Tapes again. Maybe some more will listen to them. I wonder, does one have to be quite old to see how all this has been happening for the last 2 or 3 generations? BTW, I clicked on the link and it would not open for me. I write again, when I was 13 I read Orwell's 1984 and I knew it would happen. And it has. I have watched it happen. Orwell was one of the insiders but he wrote about future happenings. His book was bleak but with bread and circuses the people are very contented with their totalitarian world. As they are killed off. As they watch their tell-a-vision. And why do people accept that they never own their home. They borrow large sums of money and pay massive interest for years and in addition they pay huge property taxes to continue to live in their home and they buy their home over and over again in paying the interest and the taxes. Why do they not rebel? What is wrong with people?

I thought I'd seen all one trillion of these videos, but I'd never seen this one. This one is dynamite.

I know nothing about Dr Toni Bark - the one with the JDV eyes - but remember reading about her sudden death in March 2020, 9 months before Brandy Vaughan's death. And Rosa Koire's death in May 2021. And Buttar's in May 2023.........

I don't think that people who are such aggressive speakers/"warriors" - leaders - would be happy being quiet and still alive on an island somewhere.......even if their role was scripted. They do well in limelight.

I've entertained some doubts of some martyr's deaths in recent history, now I just think it astonishing they've all been shut up in the same chunk of time.

Yes, they seem to have extinguished the early speakers. God Bless them for their bravery. True Heroes in Tyme. Lighting the fires of resistance down thru Tyme. Forever grateful to them. I keep thinking of Andor. Every part of the resistance, willing to give their all, to eradicate the evil threatening their families, with help from the creative force when it came down to the wire. Such faith and bravery rewarded with success in the end:) I have such faith in the beauty and power of our creator's original intent. However it came down to us, there's always that connection. I feel it. Just know, and make it so.

Amen Jewell Highers.

Reading what you wrote gave me goosebumps, which means I can still feel beauty and truth and fear, I suppose.

I forgot Kary Mullis in that comment above - and many others.

Remember the hideous statement from US history, "The only good Indian is a dead Indian?"

(I've worn a Navajo ring from a Navajo friend my whole life.)

Reading VASLformerlyknownasSage, I'm always wondering if that statement always applies to "truth tellers" and "warriors".

Are not some alive and still speaking?

I had not known about Andor - are you referring to the Star Wars series?

If you are, I'll check in with one of my many Star Wars expert sons, to see how to view it.

I watched a BBC documentary, many years ago, with Michael Portillo looking at options for capital punishment that might be less unpleasant than the current arrangements. Portillo had been a gov't minister under Thatcher, then became a TV personality, but he also appears on the RAINS list (don't ask, unless you really want to know - it's grim). He's a BBC stalwart, which is rarely a good thing. Anyway, he finally narrowed it down (if I remember correctly) to suffocating the 'victims' with nitrogen. They demonstrated it with some pigs - pumped in nitrogen and they just dropped (I presume they were resuscitated afterwards!). He presented this to some US official who was involved in death row affairs and the guy basically said that finding a less cruel method was beside the point. These were murderers and the cruelty of the method was entirely appropriate, he said.

Compiled by the late Dr Joan Coleman (I think that's her name), psychiatrist practising in the south of England. Every time two or more abused children she was treating who couldn't possibly know each other testified about particular figures they claimed to have been ritually abused by, she added them to her list and published it. Some individuals on it were 'doers' (e.g. Ted Heath); others were 'watchers'. I think MP was a 'watcher'.

Excellent comment.

It only took the MSM on behalf of their overlords, 4.5 years to finally admit that some people have vaccine injuries, way too late to prevent tens of millions from being injured and killed. They could have said the same thing in February 2021. By the end of this year, we will have had 5 years of intentional disease creation and culling while the injections are still actively pushed by all authorities in virtually every nation on earth. For those who watch TV, there are still commercials pushing the shots.

People would be foolish to believe anything the so-called authorities say. Their job is to lie. You do not get to those positions unless you are willing to "play the game." In my experience, the vast majority of people simply cannot accept that. They want to remain in the system and enjoy all that it has to offer even though they know it is totally corrupt. I guess they think they can be just a little corrupt but it's impossible. You are either in or you're out.

What would you say to the people who want to get one shot, but not the second shot?

"What I normally say is, it's going to be intense, the second shot, but you are already in. You want to get the full benefit of what you are doing. Also, it just doesn't make sense, it's not like there is some added risk you're getting into with the second shot. So, I don't know, I would just ask them what their fears were. Getting only one shot (for two-dose vaccines) just doesn't make full sense—you're only getting part of the benefit and whatever risk you imagine, you have already accumulated that with one vaccine, and, as you see, you do quite well with it."

The Novelty of mRNA Viral Vaccines and Potential Harms: A Scoping Review

mRNA Off to a Bad Start but Future May be Brighter

Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH

Apr 19, 2023

-----

By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH

We all have the tendency to paint issues with a broad brush. That is to see things one way for intellectual simplicity. “All pharmaceuticals are bad” or “I don’t trust any vaccine.” It is even more tempting to take a negative view on all new technology when the product launch in humans fails to a large degree.

These old mental saws could apply to mRNA vaccines. Halma et al have published a scoping review of lipid nanoparticle-mRNA products with fair balance causing the reader to consider future possibilities.

Eventually if youre not integrated in central data, answering invasive questions on a regular basis, you wont have a bank account or the digital currencies to come because AI will put most on 'universal income' supplied by your regional government to be spent that month only, no saving please! This is a digital prison system and Convid was a foreshadowing, a warm up, an introduction to move the Overton window for generations of kids that wont ask questions when we get there because they live in a digital world in their own minds, separate from parents and friends, grandparents and community and nature...online porn addictions are off the charts in children, let alone adults.. this is a cold comfort that will freeze us to death.

This system we move into even this year is a digital currency based in regional trading blocks (no more sovereign nation for you, imperfect human). Their idea is that AI will solve so many issues, we will barely need workers anymore and we can all just stay home like its covid time all the time.. We will need to stay home because the energy expenditures for AI and supercomputing are over double what we use now.

I guess I’m one of the hopeless and augmented you are trying to wake up. But I'm still reading, so don't write me off.

I concede that the vast majority of those with an audience or message that is allowed to be heard are complicit and put into place by the masters. I am less convinced that they all know the entire picture. I’m more inclined to believe that they are patting themselves on the back for their brilliant analyses and successful marketing, enjoying the attention and the money while keeping their heads down. And/or they are being bamboozled (or threatened, or blackmailed) themselves, sucked into the performance by the tier above who is playing them.

I don’t deny that I am holding onto hope that there is some humanity left, and that certain figures (eg, RFK Jr, Mike Yeadon) are not willing participants in the cull & control op. But I’m not willing to condemn someone for statements or actions that seem aligned with the op and operators, especially going back years before much was rolled out. One photo does not a traitor make; otherwise, JJC and MK would be on the list. And strategy IS critical to effective messaging and persuasion. Assuming for a moment that RFK Jr is uncaptured, it would be essential form him to be measured in his approach. That is not my naïve/optimistic side talking, but my rational/business perspective (of which I have much experience). I am willing to admit I will be proven wrong.

Would you agree that some of the messages the actors are delivering are true? Why not take away what is of value (with eyes wide open) and dismiss what is bullshit? The hopelessness and fear they are trying to stoke comes from all different directions (including your stack, sadly).

Serious question: What voices DO you trust? It certainly must be a short list.

I do not believe that everyone is read in, that would be unwieldy.

The framing of who DO I trust is flawed at root.

People are trustworthy on some things and not on others. People are also prone to mistakes.

If your father is a physician and pushes you and your kids to get the shots, is he in on the cull?

No. He loves you.

He is repeating what he learned to become a doctor.

So you will have to learn to stop TRUSTING PEOPLE AS SAVIORS and learn the intellectual logical skills of sorting out what is real. And that skillset has been purposely removed from the populace via education manipulation.

I agree with this 100%. And I appreciate the tone.

For the record, I stopped trusting people as saviors a while ago. I am alone among friends and family, whom I once thought were also critical thinkers, and it is a lonely place to be. But it is also in my nature to give people the benefit of the doubt, at least until I don't (and there are plenty of examples of that).

I think you are being more effective in reaching people than you seem to believe. The trust issue is nuanced. Holding out hope is not the same as blanket trust. Even if we aren't ready to throw people under the bus, we have learned the hard lesson of ALWAYS questioning. Please give us that.

Giving benefit of the doubt comes easy for me (whether path of least resistance or just idiot trust) and I can't remember or count the times I've given too much. If I give benefit of the doubt to someone who is operating on having given someone else benefit of the doubt the door is wide open to Rockefellers all the way down. Acceptance of vaccines is a perfect example of a tower of bullshit propped up with benefit of the doubt scaffolding.
