How the “Unvaccinated” Got It Right
BrownStone Inst. ^ | 1-31-23 | Robin Koerner

Scott Adams is the creator of the famous cartoon strip, Dilbert. It is a strip whose brilliance derives from close observation and understanding of human behavior. Some time ago, Scott turned those skills to commenting insightfully and with notable intellectual humility on the politics and culture of our country.

Like many other commentators, he fervently encouraged people to take the Covid “vaccine” and sympathized with measures to pressure people into doing so.

Recently, however, he posted a video on the topic that has been circulating on social media. It was a mea culpa in which he declared, “The unvaccinated were the winners,” and, to his great credit, “I want to find out how so many of [my viewers] got the right answer about the “vaccine” and I didn’t.”

It was pretty plain early on that informed consent didn’t exist relating to anything CoupFlu.

That was all I needed to understand.

I already have an elevated risk of clots and heart problems due to family history, so I didn’t get the jab.
Had the OG coof in November 2019 when they were calling it a “weird flu” or a “strange pneumonia”.
Dirty secret is that it was already stateside by July 2019 at the latest.
2020, not sick at all not even a cold.
November 21, 103.5 fever and everything smelled bad or floral, never lost sense of smell.
So far since I’ve only had the normal season change sneezes that plague my family when fall ends or spring begins that aren’t the flu or a cold.
Weird.
According to Biden and the jab shills I should be dead.

I am not unvaccinated. I had whatever vaccines were the norm in the early 70s. I chose not to get this COVID-19 vaccine that doesn’t fit the 2019 definition of a vaccine.

Here’s a good one. Pfizer keeps pushing the COVID-19 “vaccine” clinical trial completion date back. A week ago it was set to end today. Now it’s March 24, 2023 - https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/study/NCT04368728

This is for Phase 1, and 2, and 3, concurrent, because that’s how it’s always been done, right?

Scott Adams is a smart guy, who looked at the modern workplace, and got cynical. But he didn’t get cynical enough.

Unfortunately, Scott Adams was out of the corporate world for too long due to his success and remembered it with rose-colored glasses.

Also, the corporate world he knew was blitheringly incompetent but not necessarily evil. Since his corporate days, many major korporations have become an outright Pfascist arm of Globalists.

Know a lot very smart folks. Some got the shot and some didn’t but can’t really identify the difference in education or intelligence between the two groups that was the deciding factor for either.

**************************

That’s because neither intelligence nor education have a damn thing to do with it.

It was all about situational awareness. Common sense. Ability to relate cause to effect over time.

You know, those things the “intelligent” generally lack and “education” tries to remove from their victims’ mindset.

Anyone paying attention looked at how Congress exempted themselves and illegal aliens from Pfascist mandates.

Digging just a scratch deeper, they would see how Democrat mayors and governors marched with rioters in violation of their own diktats.

Science is dead and the Globalists killed it.

It was the opposite for me. I’m the wife who acquiesced because of my husband and children, and mostly, because I desired to hold my first grandson, who was born shortly after the shots were available. I was absolutely emotionally coerced into having the first two shots. (I refuse to call them vaccines; they are not.)

I know of far too many adults got the jab because their married sons or daughters held the grandkids hostage before allowing them to visit!

~~~

I do too.
You can be book smart, and you can even be street smart, but you can still let your guard and skepticism down when it comes institutions and figures of authority. Even very smart people.

The same gullible ignorami who actually think that shovel ready stimulus bills and infrastructure bills (how may have we had since 2008? Like a half dozen for trillions each?) actually fix infrastructure (half our bridges are STILL in bad shape) are the same ignorami who believe figure-heads like Fauci and talking-heads like Lestor Holt when they tell you that vaccines stop the spread, save lives, or reduce symptom severity.

Some people just pay absolutely no attention to the CONSTANT lessons of history. People in positions of power are not benevolent, and in fact, usually much closer to the opposite.

Its not intelligence that saves you from chit like govt kill programs. Its discernment. And a healthy dose of disrespect for authority.

It wasn’t hard. When you know the flu shots dont work half the time or if ever, then you know its all a scam.

“For the life of me, I never could figure out why so many people couldn’t see this.”

Answer: They are mindless sheep that will do anything they are told to do.

I do not think our country will ever get like Nazi Germany where people are herded into death camps, but many Jews of the era just complied, got into the cattle cars, got off, got shaved and stripped, and took the shower. If it happened in our country the same would happen.

There’s only a small percentage of people that resist. In the case of Covid, we are called “pure bloods”.

I didn’t get the jab when all around me were panicking. I wanted to see if they dropped dead. I remembered the swine flu fiasco.

In your case, I would be making sure that the inheritance bypassed the child involved, and went directly to the grandchildren.

I have a LOT of vaccines in me. Between the military and my international travels have a substantial vaccination record.

However, when these vaccines came out, I asked a simple question. How many mRNA vaccines have been approved for humans?

The answer - none. First introduced in the 1970’s and ... none. The Covid-19 mRNA vaccine is still EUA only.

That is all I needed to know to want to wait for a good 10 years of clinical data to be present. It was not complicated; it did not require a medical degree to understand. Just a review of history
