Scientific Reason #3 The Overton Window
The Overton Window is simply the range of ‘acceptable’ ideas. Used mostly in politics, it refers to those ideas and concepts which are deemed viable and those that are cast to the wayside as fringe or crazy. Like any window, the Overton window can be slammed shut, opened wide, cracked, broken, or shattered.
Sometimes, we need to install a new window entirely…
Since 2016, we’ve seen a lot of changes in the window. Love him or hate him, Donald Trump immediately changed the Overton Window the moment he came down his escalator in NYC. As President, he allowed many people who felt marginalized and suppressed to voice their opinions.
Of course, the Lamestream Media did their best to stop him.
Now flash forward. In just the past 3 years or so, the Overton Window has again shifted dramatically. Since the advent of this ‘Covid Era,’ we’ve seen all kinds of minor adjustments, obvious tweaks, and major renovations.
How many people dared to mention hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin? How many people noted that covid case and death counts were being inflated, that covid case and death counts ‘from’ and ‘with’ covid were being conflated? That you could literally die in a motorcycle accident and be counted as a covid death?
What about those raising concerns over hospital intubation protocols? Or the dangerous side effects of remdesivir?
How many people simply shared or posted videos and links that the social media ‘fact checkers’ summarily flagged as misleading misinformation?
Clearly, the mainstream media and social media have done their best to narrow the Overton Window. For a while, any suggestion the vaccine caused harm got you labeled as a tinfoil hat-wearing ‘anti-vaxxer’ who was going to spread a highly deadly virus and kill everyone in sight.
If you’re trying desperately to open the Overton Window wider and wider, you have to fight the fight on the enemy’s turf. Twitter is currently the greatest authoritarian technocratic battleground of all time. With so many famous freedom fighters returning, you need only direct your jabbed friends & family members to the platform.
Show them mainstream videos from a couple years ago and now today. Highlight the changes, the reversals, the goal post-shifting, and the current public sentiment. Sheep want to fit in, so make them think they now don’t fit in because most people see through the vaccine sham.
After all, half of the U.S. now thinks the shots are deadly.
Scientific Reason #4 The Hawthorne Effect
This “effect” occurs across experimental and real-life conditions. Essentially, it states that people change the way they act based on being observed. However, for them to change, they have to know they’re being observed. By being aware of this observation, individuals may do things they would not normally do or say things they would not normally say.
This can be applied to many contexts. Just think of the past 3 years! For a while, the masses were isolated, only allowed to go to certain “essential” places. When they did, they had to abide by all sorts of protocols. They knew they were being watched, so what did people do?
They wore masks, they socially distanced by 6 feet, and they didn’t walk as closely to others in malls, stores, restaurants, and other spaces as they normally would. When the vaccine passports came into play, people in some countries, states, and areas had to flash their ‘proof.’
Everybody was watching everybody. Crazy ‘Karens’ had people kicked out of businesses for not wearing their face diapers over their noses! People got arrested for not following covid protocols.
The Hawthorne Effect was in full effect. By knowing they were being watched by others, people became more compliant and passive. They did things they didn’t like or didn’t believe in simply to get along. On social media, where many people are ‘watching,’ it became the norm to have profile pictures with ‘I got vaccinated’ filters.
How Do We Change Behaviors Back to Being… Sane?
It’s going to take some time but it is happening. The best way is to use the Hawthorne Effect against people. You might not be a confrontational person, but public shaming does work. Just as we’ve seen a horde of ‘experts’ justify rude and crass behaviors to coerce people into compliance, so too can we use that shaming to get people back into normal behavior.
The pendulum swings both ways.
If you see somebody wearing a mask by themselves in a car, give them an awkward look or hard stare. Laugh at them. If your friend or family member is like that, remind them that the masks are useless. Ask them how many times they washed it. What soap or detergent do they use? How long on average do they wear it before replacing it? Ask them about microfibers. Ask them if it’s an N95. Joke about how nice it is to breathe fresh air. Make a weird expression. Or just curtly say, “Take that damn thing off.”
Set the example. Don’t Purell every 5 seconds, don’t wear a mask even when told to, and when it comes to people touting the vaccine, be short and to the point. If they say they’re happy they were vaccinated, or else their infection would have been worse, remind them that “you don’t know that.” Point to the fact that “the majority of people in hospitals with covid now are jabbed.”
Appeal to their obedience to authority. Cite the CDC, FDA and WHO and mention how even these ‘trusted’ entities have changed their tune numerous times.
It may be hard, but you’ll get the swing of things. Some people respond better to shaming, others respond better to a nice, curious question: “Why are you still wearing a mask?” or “Do you really need that booster?” or “If you had a bad reaction, why get another shot?” or “Covid’s endemic now, the symptoms are mild at worst. You’ll be fine.”
If people ask you questions about not getting the vaccine, and you don’t want to ruffle the feathers, you can always be frank and polite: “Had covid, just wanted to wait till more research came out” or “Don’t trust the company after all the lawsuits they’ve had” or “I prefer natural supplements. They really help me. Wanna see what I use?”
Try to relate some aspect of your personal ‘awakening’ if you can: “Yea, I stopped wearing them because I couldn’t breathe well. I already had covid anyway so I have antibodies.” Adapt your line of reasoning so it’s more palatable to ‘normie’ thinkers. Remember, they’re getting their beliefs from a very narrow source of info, so you’ll have to administer the red pill bit by bit.
In the end, it might be tedious but it’s also the only way to ensure you don’t push them away and blow the chance forever. So seize the moment and make the breakthrough!
