To my dying days, I will never, ever be able to understand why people cooperated with the ‘programme’ in the first place.

It’s probably a combination of things, Ellie. Personally, I don’t read, watch or listen to mainstream news. I don’t have a TV. I don’t listen to the radio apart from Classic FM in the car and it gets switched off instantly the news or ads come on. But that is me and so I imagine that someone who is a regular reader, watcher, listener was bombarded with the propaganda 24/7 and that was also reiterated by friends, family and work colleagues. If you’re not that strong or unsure of yourself and your choices and don’t do much thinking, then it’s all too easy to see how so many succumbed to this constant tide. Most people tend to trust the media – the BBC for instance – and/or the government. Sorry that’s a bit long-winded and I’m sure you already knew all that anyway. It is interesting to see how malleable the public are and I’m sure it piqued more than a passing interest from the fear-mongers as they prepare to launch another pandemic on us.

I tend to think of it as similar to how you’ll always get some people who are more susceptible to hypnotism and the power of suggestion than others. I am dead certain that even the charms of Derren Brown would not get me dancing the Funky Chicken on stage, or any of his other more elaborate acts ( which he says do not involve stooges but they are so obviously young, drama student-type stooges! ) but some people appear to be just ripe for it and lap it up. I theorize that all of us on here, who didn’t fall for the PsyOp, including the necessity of getting an experimental clot shot, are people who are all impervious to the effects of mass hypnosis.

To mis-quote a childhood favourite; “My wings are like a shield of steel. Your bullshit cannot harm me!” 🙂

I agree with Aethelred and Mogwai but would like to add a couple of further thoughts.

Many people, including many well-off professional types, tend to be trusting of authority, keen on conformity and unwilling to create “ripples” through fear of rejection. For them, unlike for most of us (I assume), these drivers are much more important than a desire for Truth and Understanding. For us, if something doesn’t feel or sound right, we will attempt to find and understand the truth, whereas their thinking is not sufficiently critical to even spot the thing in the first place. And they don’t understand or question why the Government or the Media or the Health Agency might be less than totally honest with the People.

I think we should also include the people who felt it was their ‘Civic Duty’ as that is effectively what we hade been told for a year. Also, the ones who felt that the ‘way forward’ out of lockdowns and restrictions was to be vaccinated. Of course that was when we were being told that it had a high efficacy and so on, all of which turned out to be untrue.

Investment in the system, attachment to aspects/elements of establishment benefits/rewards, people whose whole life, or “favourite things”, and/or social life/standing and connections, would have been/were on the line if they even began to question anything they were told by that establishment. Herd behaviour, classic genetically programmed evolutionary advantageous/increased survival odds sticking with the herd.

The NHS throughout the land ‘collapsed’ a long time ago. Its demise accelerated by its unhealthy worshipping of the god of Covid at the expense of anything else.

I wonder where they all are, the hundreds of people who used to throng jn the comments section here, particularly in early-mid 2020, especially under the Daily Update/Newsletter, before the first of the Regulatory Revamps/Enclosures/Comment Clampdowns. Where have they gone?

I wonder if they too would have been/are experiencing scepticism-burnout too, or whether they may have found communities to post in/connect in which they work towards some clear objective, a common vision, or find support.

I think that I’ve been shocked and demoralised by the way that lockdowns, mask mandates, the jab-campaign, etc seem to have been forgotten by the majority of people, are never referred to, not talked about, as if they never happened. I’m struggling with how to deal with that.

This site may oddly enough have contributed to that erasure/burial, as it went from being Lockdown Sceptics to the Daily Sceptic. But perhaps it could/will now become a “post-trauma-stress-disorder-support-platform”, for the people who refuse to or haven’t managed to forget.

PS. And precious “Lockdown Archive” ….

It’s a shame that it erased so many months of thousands of discussions by hundreds of commenters in the first year or so.

This site almost seems to have engaged in its own “forgetting”/memory holing, ( our community history binned/evaporated ), even if it seems to have kept most … (?) many …. (?), a selection of the articles that it has posted since March 2020.

… maybe not the best place for people refusing to forget to find support, despite the articles posted which look at precisely this issue. …. The medium is the message.

Yes probably fatigue, and perhaps some don’t share the broader concerns of DS. Quite a few people who posted here have gone to (1) LockdownSceptics (reddit.com)

For a while, MabelCow late of these parts, now founder and chief mod of the reddit group, was running a daily scrape of LS which got put into the panscepticon as MC called it, but panscepticon.org now is in Wiki format rather than a daily set of comments. I expect the archived comments are still somewhere – if you go onto that reddit group and post in the daily chat I’m sure MC will tell you

The same has happened in our local Stand in the Park group. The number of people who turn up regularly on Sunday mornings has dropped considerably. There is a still a core group who attend most Sundays. I make it as often as I can but miss out the odd Sunday when I have other stuff on that I have to do. However, it is still important to me just as this site is. I think there are a lot of people who scan the articles on here but don’t necessarily make comments. It’s the same on GB News Neil Oliver slots or Mark Steyn – not that many likes or comments or even views in some cases. Some people are not even aware of the DS even though they are totally on the same page as us. There are a lot of different sites, blogs, substacks, videos out there so I can imagine that this dilutes the crowds somewhat. I do feel that once the scales have dropped from your eyes, you don’t go back to complacency. Maybe it’s too much for some people, in terms of the ramping up of the stakes, and they limit their exposure or… Read more »

I doubt many sceptics think everything is now/will now be tickety-boo. I suspect many are just trying to rebuild their lives a bit. As for comments, it’s hard for me to find much new to say. We know the direction things are going in; all too predictable.

It may be because we can all see what is happening before our eyes, and yet from the media’s position none of it is happening. There is an enormity of the forces on the other side to try and tackle. Can we even stop this? Who is going to stop it? Trtump, Musk, Farage,? Right now I can’t see anything other than this rolling on to completion of the evil plans. I will fight my own little battles, but without political and media pushback, this is already done.

Regulate crypto to stop next FTX-style implosion, says Bank of England

As I stated a couple of days ago it is very clear that the B o E has been taken over by the WEF. This wouldn’t be an excuse for CBDC’s would it?

Surely not.

The snakes have their Trojan horse ready to go, methinks, HP! They are accelerating their plans and so hopefully they will soon be making big mistakes. I don’t think they realise that the game is up.

The concept of using orbital solar farms was mentioned on the world propaganda channel early this morning. This is an era ‘advert’ site for such a project: https://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Space_Engineering_Technology/SOLARIS/SOLARIS2 No doubt similar projects exist in China and other places.

Not a new idea, though. Look at this old American site: https://www.energy.gov/articles/space-based-solar-power It is dated 6/3/2014, so 8 1/2 years old. While it lasts, have fun with it’s somewhat glib mention of the safety, and potential military angle of power transmission from satellites!

Here’s something you’ll want to watch. The new Died Suddenly doc film just released. It does contain some graphic images of clots being removed and the reproductive data is very disturbing too. *Warning* You may have the urge to put your fist through the screen on multiple occasions when the usual lying, evil scumbags appear. Or perhaps that’s just me.. 😮

OMG…because this isn’t creepy AF!! 😮 It’d be like getting chauffeured by the Invisible man! Does anyone have any inside knowledge as to this being just a regular, run-of-the-mill thing in China now? Or is it newly rolled-out and anyone who uses driverless taxis are basically unwitting crash test dummies?? Think I’ll continue to take my chances with an actual flesh and blood kinda driver, ta.
