Fear and Loathing in the Pandemic w. Ryder Lee (4/24/25)
The scientific method involves observation, questioning, forming hypotheses, testing predictions and altering theories to align with results; it is not the altering of results to align with a hypothesis. There are three acceptable narratives about COVID-19: a wet mart (official), 5G (conspiracy), and laboratory leak (alternative). Whereas the https://www.science.org/content/article/cia-bribed-its-own-covid-19-origin-team-reject-lab-leak-theory-anonymous-whistleblower to reject the lab theory, https://apnews.com/article/covid-cia-trump-china-pandemic-lab-leak-9ab7e84c626fed68ca13c8d2e453dde1 explanation. This announcement was made just days after the former President regained the White House. As of April 2025, the https://www.whitehouse.gov/lab-leak-true-origins-of-covid-19/?fbclid=IwY2xjawJv5wdleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHrhaCm1LYQx2UbG8uGLw5gkhCvB3N4a2gNrAgdarT7Z6C-XKZijSXHb3PctU_aem_hUJWc6XJ_Gfj14AvDa1VSA as “the true origins of COVID-19.” This new official designation means that at one time or another two totally different explanations were given, ultimately with the consequence of censorship and ridicule if a person thought or said anything different. Both explanations still result in justufciaotn for past, and future, measures such as: social distancing, masking, https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/04/end-hygiene-theater/618576/ as a form of a theater, vaccines, etc. Prior to the recent shift in narratives, undercover video reportedly proved that Pfizer was indeed conducing gain of function research in a laboratory. But that lab was not a viral facility or a Wuhan institute; instead, it was a computer lab. In fact, https://www.pfizer.com/news/announcements/pfizer-responds-research-claims stating: “With a naturally evolving virus, it is important to routinely assess the activity of an antiviral. Most of this work is conducted using computer simulations…” Such computer simulations were used to predict mass casualties from COVID, too, and are the same ones being employed for Climate Change narratives. But what is COVID-19 or the virus designated SARS-COV-2. It is a list or complex of symptoms that are classified into categories of disease. Examination of COVID’s symptoms prove they are nearly identical to the common cold and flu, among others. In fact, the https://hsph.harvard.edu/news/a-sharp-drop-in-flu-cases-during-covid-19-pandemic/. According to Harvard, this was the result of “wearing masks and distancing,” though they did not explain how such measures stopped the flu but not SARS-COV-2. Consider these three sets of symptoms from the CDC website: https://www.cdc.gov/common-cold/about/index.html: runny nose or nasal congestion, cough, sneezing, sore throat, headache, mild body aches, fever.https://www.cdc.gov/flu/signs-symptoms/index.html: runny or stuffy nose, cough, sore throat, headaches, muscle or body aches, fatigue, fever, and vomiting or diarrhea. https://www.cdc.gov/covid/signs-symptoms/index.html: congestion or runny nose, cough, sore throat, headache, muscle or body aches, fatigue, fever or chills, nausea or vomiting, and diarrhea. The only distinct symptoms of COVID were “shortness of breath or difficulty breathing” and “new loss of taste or smell.” The first symptom is already https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/leading-causes-of-death.htm in the United States - chronic lower respiratory disease. Since COVID was first tested CLRD has been bumped to sixth, though many of these respiratory deaths have been listed as COVID. In other words, what would have been diagnosed as CLRD was categorized instead as COVID-19. This is the same reason flu nearly disappeared as reported cases. These breathing problems were, within the COVID diagnosis, themselves sub-categorized as COVID-Pneumonia, and https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/24002-covid-pneumonia. The second symptom of losing a senes of taste or smell varied between total loss and partial loss, something that also occurs with the common cold and flu. This distinct and often promoted https://www.healthline.com/health-news/who-is-most-likely-to-lose-their-sense-of-smell-and-taste-from-covid-19, and even so only involved some often minor or unspecified form of loss. Thus we can determine that between 15-37% of COVID cases had “distinct” symptoms arguably different than the overall symptoms that classify cold or flu, which means at liberal estimates over two thirds of COVID cases were nothing more than a case of the cold or flu. When defining what caused these other symptoms, we know recategorized pneumonia was one. But what about other causes that resulted in loss of senses? Other than injuries or inflammation, often caused by what we call allergies, https://www.livestrong.com/article/13731552-food-suddenly-tastes-different/ and https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27178656/, as can neurological disorders. Other than the obvious and physical, there is also the psychological. Anxiety and stress are well known to alter sense perceptions, including https://www.calmclinic.com/anxiety/signs/smell and https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10668578/. Consider how much anxiety and stress were cultivated by 24-hour coverage of cases, deaths, symptoms, videos from China, etc., and how wiling the public was to adopt any perceptually legal or even illogical dictate for the purposes of keeping themselves and others “safe.” There is a long history of such mass psychogenic pathogen.Much of this fear was generated by variant names like “KRAKEN,” a mythical monster, as was https://www.unmc.edu/healthsecurity/transmission/2023/09/19/meet-the-man-who-named-covids-new-variants/ who likewise believed this naming heightened the public’s perception of a terror they should be feeling. Such fear became so intense that one analysis suggested that COVID activated “archetypes of evil” and thus “added psychological suffering.” The study suggested: “Fear and grief caused by the pandemic have produced a powerful unconscious narrative in the collective psyche that the coronavirus is driven by an https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8441919/. The resulting archetypal dimension of fear causes an extra layer of psychological suffering in individuals.” Such mythical, theological, and even magical terms were not lost in the New England Journal of Medicine which openly declared in 2020 that masks were little more than talismans: “Masks are not only tools, https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2006372...” A spirit or demon possessing a body is an impure form that makes one sick. Items such as crosses or holy water are employed in its exorcism - to exercise/exorcise the demon and make healthy again - along with the name of the unclean. The same is done today in modern vaccine administration. The holy water is replaced by a vaccine vial, the cross is replaced by a syringe and plunger, the demon’s name is replaced by the variant or virus name, and the ritual robes are replaced by white lab coats. The pandemic was not about a virus and a distinct set of symptoms. Instead it was about inducing archetypical fear and https://www.weforum.org/stories/2020/10/the-rich-got-richer-during-the-pandemic-and-that-s-a-daunting-sign-for-our-recovery/. It was at best https://www.history.com/articles/mysterious-illnesses-mass-hysteria, in the middle a conspiracy of fraud and psychological terror, and at worst a dark magical ritual to induce trauma. Further evidence of the fraud can be found in reports like this one from the New York Times that discuss the ultra amplification of PCR testing cycles from the low 30s to the mid 40s -“https://absa.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/NYT-200829-Your-Coronavirus-Test.pdf” - “In three sets of testing data that include cycle thresholds, compiled by officials in Massachusetts, New York and Nevada, up to 90 percent of people testing positive carried barely any virus…In Massachusetts, from 85 to 90 percent of people who tested positive in July with a cycle threshold of 40 would have been deemed negative if the threshold were 30 cycles.” Even ‘true’ positive tests do not indicate symptoms or disease, or the future development of such, which brings us back to the White House website and the statement about the lab leak: “The virus possesses a biological characteristic that is not found in nature.” This may be true, as per whatever is being assumed to exist, or observed under a microscope, or played with in a computer model, yet it does not prove any disease, especially in https://abcnews.go.com/Health/covid-transmission-asymptomatic/story?id=84599810. *The is the FREE archive.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings--5328407/support.
