If you think that being skeptical about what you put into your body is somehow a poisonous ideology, then I don't know what to say to you. Again, I'm off, no point in continuing this.

Posted August 4, 2021 @lmfao Thank you. I like your approach, its very private, it has to do with your decision and I totally respect that. Indeed I am a strong believer that people can do not only with their bodies what they want but even with their lives, but I have an issue when someone tells me what to do with my life, especially if they are even lacking expertise on the topic. But again, I was giving positive criticism to Leo, and in no way was it derogatory. Indeed thanks to Leo I was able to truly deconstruct my mind. And I like how radical Leo is compare to other masters, who sort of give you a very liberal and free approach to spirituality, like you come to them and they will just tell you to feel yourself and take it easy, while Leo rubs it in your eyes and at least to me that is the best approach. We humans are so closed minded and are so lazy to go outside our comfort zone that we need a push. But I think this conversation is already getting to another forum topic.

Posted August 4, 2021 @Leo Gura Do you remember when you use to think psychedelics were for stupid people? I believe you’re going to come around on this as well and realise that some shady stuff is happening in the world right now… maybe after your 10th Pfizer shot ?☺️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I won't get into it because I don't want to piss you off more than you already are, but here's just one thing that bothers me: Quote Under the PREP Act, companies like Pfizer and Moderna have total immunity from liability if something unintentionally goes wrong with their vaccines That's just part of a standard formal contract that's very much the norm anywhere within the medical field. The purpose of it is simply to ensure the legal rights and preserve the jobs of the employees (doctors and pharmacists, etc.). They're basically saying: "We are going to do our best, but we can't guarantee you life. We can only promise you to work hard and to the best of our current knowledge and ability. But we can't give you health or life, so don't expect that from us." If you ever go to a hospital, that's one of the first things you need to sign before they could admit you in. Otherwise, you're free to go somewhere else. Because they don't have to take responsibility for such inevitable risks. So, unfortunately, with that perfectionistic mindset, there won't be any treatment for you, unless you accept the realities of inevitable risks. Because even if everything is performed perfectly smoothly on the nano level, mistakes can still happen on some other unexpected level or place, and you can't just shut down the whole medical field for some edge case mistakes. And even if no mistakes happen, nobody can guarantee you life, health, or safety. There will always be risks involved in anything you do in life.

Posted August 4, 2021 What baffles me is that if you have a slightly different opinion on this subject, you're pretty much instantly demonized and get labelled as "anti-vaxxer". There are many-many different narratives out there that highly dispute the effectiveness and necessity of the vaccines and the authenticity of the mainstream media/narrative. And no, I'm not talking about random conspiracy theories from reddit. Some of these narratives are from actual doctors and scientific people. Obviously you won't find these sources on youtube or any other mainstream platform. Wonder why. Anyway, I just don't understand Leo's and some other people's opinion in this thread given this is a "high consciousness" forum where people should be able to think for themselves and study this issue from different viewpoints.

Bullshit, I live in Massachusetts, and the vaccination rate is like 64%. And most of the vaccinated people probably live in the cities, where you're more likely to get it.

I expect better of you. Your gaslighting will not fly here. If you want to not get vaccinated, that's your biz, but you're not going to use this forum to spread poisonous ideas that will kill thousands of people. Blame me all you want, but history and science will prove you wrong. It is completely true that the covid vaccine is effective and that covid is not some government conspiracy. However we should be allow to discuss the ways that governments use this pandemic for their own needs. For example, the vaccine passport, while off course a good idea within itself, is actually also a step towards a China like technocratic system. The covid passport has allowed for all identities to be verified digitally by anyone, even outside the original country. Again, of course Covid is not a conspiracy but people in power are seeing it as an opportunity for new things. "As we enter a unique window of opportunity to shape the recovery, this initiative will offer insights to help inform all those determining the future state of global relations, the direction of national economies, the priorities of societies, the nature of business models and the management of a global commons. Drawing from the vision and vast expertise of the leaders engaged across the Forum’s communities, the Great Reset initiative has a set of dimensions to build a new social contract that honours the dignity of every human being." From https://www.weforum.org/great-reset/ . Notice the "unique window of opportunity" they are talking about. that's what I mean. That doesn't mean the coming changes will be necessarily bad but we should be keeping an eye out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blame me all you want, but history and science will prove you wrong. You are clearly pro-science and want the pandemic to end as much as the rest of us. This shows in all of your responses to vaccine hesitancy. Why is it then that whenever somebody cites the many scientific analyses surrounding the effectiveness of Ivermectin in treating disease, reducing long-haul symptoms and preventing contraction of SARS-CoV-2, you are nowhere to be seen? It is clear now that it is one of many available tools that could drive the virus to extinction, but its use is being suppressed despite the available evidence. One might assume this is in pursuit of profit. I would love to hear your thoughts on this, as would many of us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let the specialists decide, stop pretending you know what the fuck you are talking about. I made NO assertion that I know what I'm talking about. I've listened to many experts debate this, and wanted to open an evidence-based discussion about it here. One or two weak Google searches won't even showcase these discussions. Also, attacking someone's character isn't a defence against their argument. Dr Pierre Kory (FLCCC) pioneered the current protocol for Covid-19 care at the very start of this pandemic. I am literally leaving it to the specialists and putting my trust in those that appear to gain nothing from telling their side of the story. If you care to put your own biases aside and have a nuanced conversation about this, go and listen to his thoughts on Ivermectin and decide for yourself. I'm not here to influence anyone or spread biased misinformation, rather to point people to these ideas so they can decide for themselves. Assumptions aside, the most important issue here is a potential viable option for eradicating the virus. Anyone care to focus on that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here in Brazil, the psychopath president listened to delusional "specialists", instead of buying the vaccine, he decided to bet on hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, and ivermectin, worked day and night to spread this "prevention kit". The result was: people questioning vaccines, taking this "prevention kit" and dying suffocated in hospitals. The pandemic here is out of control due to betting on ivermectin, with more than 550.000 dead and counting. Just take the damn vaccine. From Brazil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 4, 2021 Other restrictions to freedom in society: murder banned, rape banned, smoking in a public place banned, bribing banned, assaulting someone banned, owning a gun banned (in the UK)... The fallacy of libertarians is their belief that freedom always equals good. In almost all jurisdictions you will either be required to get a vaccine or at the very least you will lose certain freedoms and privileges by choosing to not get vaccinated.
