Cult-of-vax Grift vs Anti-Cult-of-Vax Grift
Cult-of-vax Grift vs Anti-Cult-of-Vax Grift
They are not the same
Recently, I saw this on Twitter.
As you can see, it is a not-very-subtle hint that Dr Aseem Malhotra is doing it for the money.
It is not that rare to see people who make these comments on Twitter about anyone who challenges the mRNA vaccine narrative, and they usually also add in words like “grifter” and “quack” etc.
Let us suppose you are actually neutral on this issue, and don’t really know for sure whether someone is “doing it just for the money” (I don’t think Aseem Malhotra is doing it for the money, but I am actually adding some context into the discussion).
But we do know the following:
a) Pfizer made over $100 billion in sales in 2022
b) Moderna went from having no future to becoming a viable company
c) The mRNA vaccine is considered to be a “trillion dollar” market over the next decade
I think we can all agree that the pro-vaccine team is not in this for charity.
And suppose you say both sides are in it for the money, let us just name them Cult-of-Vax grift1 and Anti-Cult-of-Vax grift.
So should we just declare “Well, it seems like one side made a lot more money, but then both sides are doing it anyway” and move on?
Not really.
Who is the customer?
One of them sells primarily to the government.
In fact, Aussie17 who is actually an ex-Pharma salesman covered this in some detail on his Substack.
Does it look like Pfizer and Moderna actually care about your health? (emphasis mine)
The amount of vaccines they sell differs from what is used in the market. Most of what they sold in 2022 (and 2023) goes directly to the trash bin because nobody wants the vaccines anymore. However, it is still counted as sold because governments "overbought" these vaccines and they cannot return the unused vaccines.
You can see here that the vaccines administered worldwide are almost near zero in 2023, but Pfizer is still expecting sales of mRNA to triple in three years. They are simply colluding with governments to siphon tax-payers money into their pocket while the vaccines go straight into the trash bin.
This means once they get the approval of an entire government, they also get to use the apparatus of full government force to go after dissidents.
But these are all Western democracies which approved these vaccines, so I guess things like rule of law will come in and protect the dissidents. Wouldn’t it?
Let us see what actually happened.
So Canadians who donated to the truckers should now sleep with one eye open for the next several months, lest they have their bank accounts frozen, and indictments filed on the basis of laws enacted to prevent financing of terrorism? Or maybe their bank will simply preemptively cancel their accounts if they appeared on the hacked list of donators from GiveSendGo?
This is crazy. Absolutely bonkers. Terrifying.
I still can't believe that this is the protest that would prove every Bitcoin crank a prophet. And for me to have to slice a piece of humble pie, and admit that I was wrong on crypto's fundamental necessity in Western democracies.
And that it was the Canadians who brought this on? You might as well have told me that it was really the Care Bears who ran Abu Ghraib.
Especially since I had some sympathy with fears projected by the US progressive left who spent four years fretting Trump might pull stunts like these. Then it turns out that the worries of an authoritarian overreach would be fulfilled by Trudeau to the North instead? Who's writing this script? M. Night Shyamalan?
Who are the sidekicks?
Not to mention, this then leads to some pretty dark theoretical scenarios where some already powerful entities, such as giant tech corporations might want to “suck up” to the government with the full knowledge that they can then get some tangible and intangible rewards from doing that.
Except, it is not just theoretical.
It actually happened.
Is it symmetrical?
I watched an interview a few months back, where the interviewer Chris Masterjohn told Jessica Rose about how he was very suspicious of the COVID19 narrative because he thought the government tried to do the same thing during the 2009 Swine Flu.
Watch the highlighted section in the video.
Make note of all the tech that Chris talks about, which was barely functional in 2009.
Not only is a lot of the tech stuff reality today, we also have a very asymmetrical situation on top of that.
The giant tech companies can easily snoop on your conversation and pass it on to the governments2.
The public, on the other hand, needs to wait for 1.5 years to get a response to a simple FOIA request from a government agency!
What is the track record of vaccine manufacturers?
It might still be a bit of a hard thing to decide if the vaccine manufacturers don’t already have a track record of their own version of grifting - i.e. mispromoting medicines.
Pfizer, the world's largest drugs company, has been hit with the biggest criminal fine in US history as part of a $2.3bn settlement with federal prosecutors for mispromoting medicines and for paying kickbacks to compliant doctors.
In fact, CoI is so rampant in the medical community, someone decided to write some software using Natural Language Processing to unearth some of these conflicts of interest.
All this to say - even if both sides have “grifters”, it does not mean they cancel each other out.
A grift is usually a “petty swindle”. What is happening with the mRNA vaccines is at a much larger scale. I am using this term for the sake of comparison.
Remember, the ONLY REASON we even have this on record is because an eccentric billionaire decided to buy one of these giant tech companies. Otherwise this asymmetry would not be public knowledge (although I guess people already suspected this was going on)
