The Delicate Art of Crushing Dissent - Love Your Crippled Epistemology or Else!



Sustein suggested one way to stop the spread of conspiracy theories is to tax those who spread them. This is what is happening today.

Conspiracy Theories - Cass Sunstein, Adrian Vermeule 2008 for University of Chicago Law School

' Those who subscribe to conspiracy theories may create serious risks, including risks of violence, and the existence of such theories raises significant challenges for policy and law.' abstract

' What can government do about conspiracy theories?  Among the things it can do, what   should   it   do?   We   can   readily   imagine   a   series   of   possible   responses.   (1)   Government  might  ban  conspiracy  theorizing.  (2)  Government  might  impose  some  kind  of  tax,  financial  or  otherwise,  on  those  who  disseminate  such  theories.  (3)  Government  might  itself  engage  in  counterspeech,  marshaling  arguments  to  discredit  conspiracy  theories.  (4)  Government  might  formally  hire  credible  private  parties  to  engage  in  counterspeech.  (5)  Government  might  engage  in  informal  communication  with  such  parties,  encouraging  them  to  help.    Each  instrument  has  a  distinctive  set  of  potential  effects,  or  costs  and  benefits,  and  each  will  have  a  place  under  imaginable  conditions.    However, our main policy idea is that government should engage in cognitive infiltration of the groups that produce conspiracy theories, which involves a mix of (3), (4) and (5).' page 14 

' Second,  we  suggest  a  distinctive  tactic  for  breaking  up  the  hard  core  of  extremists  who  supply  conspiracy  theories:  cognitive  infiltration  of  extremist  groups,  whereby  government  agents  or  their  allies  (acting  either  virtually  or  in  real  space,  and  either  openly  or  anonymously)  will  undermine the crippled epistemology of those who subscribe to such theories. They do so by planting doubts about the theories and stylized facts that circulate within such groups, thereby introducing beneficial cognitive diversity.' page 15 

 'In August 2004, a poll  by  Zogby  International  showed  that  49  percent  of  New  York  City  residents,  with  a margin  of  error  of  3.5  percent,  believed  that  officials  of  the  U.S.  government  “knew  in  advance  that  attacks  were  planned  on  or  around  September  11,  2001,  and  that  they  consciously failed to act.”' page 2 

'Among sober-minded Canadians, a September 2006 poll found that 22 percent believe that “the attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001  had  nothing  to  do  with  Osama  Bin  Laden  and  were  actually  a  plot  by  influential  Americans.”5  In a poll conducted in seven Muslim countries, 78 percent of respondents said  that  they  do  not  believe  the  9/11  attacks  were  carried  out  by  Arabs.' page 2

    Just one piece of news update 29th of many showing the relentless push to stuff peeps with more needles than any drug addict gets.:
    HARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia will begin offering some fully vaccinated people free tests to measure antibody levels against the coronavirus, a move to study whether some elderly and immunocompromised individuals should receive a third booster shot.

    State officials said they are following the lead of Israel, which announced Thursday that the country would offer a third COVID-19 booster shot for fully vaccinated people over the age of 60.

    West Virginia officials said the state will offer antibody testing for residents age 60 and over, particularly those living in nursing homes, who received their final vaccine dose at least six months ago.

    1. Just noticed Dusty Hill, 72, ZZTop bearded bassist frontman died in his sleep a few nights ago unexpectedly! ZERO mention yet COD, zero mention of course whether he took any shots recently (u remember Clapton's experience) in the notice but sure looks suspicious.

      BTW, i notice here that once again we had a 'default' of about 22% to those who get it by themselves,regardless of peer pressure, education, social status, etc,. much like the present shot stats pretty much every country which even to my surprise& disgust over-ran the .618 mini-PHI number= 61.8% and seems to be nearer about .786= 78.6% getting the shot. .786 is the root of .618. So stats lied they always have said given a very neutrally-worded question, YES or NO choice ANSWER, to a stat. sig. large enuf group, if the person had zero knowledge of the subject the answers would split in a 61.6:38.2 ratio, or the inverse of that. So this (1- .786)= 21.4% split over-runs again. Likely peer pressure causing it.:

    2. Found the link i knew i'd read very recently that made me think of Dusty Hill's circumstance. here it is from very near about 10 days before the day he died in fact:

      https://www.naturalhealth365.com/whistleblower-claims-deaths-from-covid-jabs-3913.html

      Ohio-based attorney Thomas Renz made a bombshell announcement at the Re-awaken Tour event held July 17-18 in Anaheim, California. Mr. Renz publicly declared his intention to file a lawsuit against the federal government for covering up the actual number of deaths caused by COVID-19 jabs.

  6. Article would heve been more impactful and spot on if 3 basic FACTS about the medical monopoly/guild/racket, at least in the 1st world, was put up front---known for many decades now, in many many studies & meta-studies:

    FACT: just one country here as example, USA, where MD's "practicing" on their patients kill between 7 & 10 times as many of their patients thru all causes as the death toll from all roadway/motorway/pedestrian accidents. Very near same % as other countries with very close pill count per capita & hospital admission rates (counts botched surgeries).

    FACT: Same bunch who pontificate & lie about what you must do because, well, it's for your health comrade & we're EXPERTS on health, has a like expectancy a full 7 years LESS than even the the average sheep, & that's been the case for many decades now. Just listen to some Joel Wallach "Dead doctors don't lie" rants.

    FACT: In EVERY country, no exceptions, where there is/was a national HELLthscare system set up, & any time during then had a doctors strike/walkout for more than a few days, there was an absolute measurable DROP in that nation's death rate when they were off work!

    In that article, I also noted how Toronto’s Associate Medical Officer of Health (MOH), Dr. Barbara Yaffe and (the then Chief MOH) Dr. David Williams, admitted they are just reading a script (laughing), “I just say what they write down for me.”

    Recently, I spoke with Canadian physicist and interdisciplinary scientist, Denis Rancourt, about Canada’s Covid measures and their repercussions.

    On the matter of Ontario’s Chief Medical Officers, Rancourt looked into their actual formal training. He told me, “There is a very specific and very serious certification for public health medicine, controlled by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada.”

    According to Rancourt’s research, Theresa Tam, the Chief Medical Officer of Canada, is not certified in public health and preventative medicine.

    In a county designated a Covid hot spot, in a state with one of the lowest vaccination rates in the nation, and in a region where hospitals are nearing capacity as the Delta variant takes hold, Erin, a bartender at Backwater Jack’s, couldn’t be in a more vulnerable position. She interacts closely with hundreds of maskless customers—sometimes on a single day. She knows most of them are probably not vaccinated. And she doesn’t care. She isn’t either.

    OMFG! The horror.

    “Breakthrough” or “breakdown?” Cardiologist claims over half of the current COVID cases are in people who have gotten a COVID injection that failed to work

    Dr. Peter A. McCullough is a cardiologist, principal faculty member in Internal Medicine for the Texas A & M University Health Sciences Center, and Vice Chief of Medicine at Baylor University Medical Center. With over three dozen peer-reviewed articles related to COVID-19 treatment protocols, Dr. McCullough has become a well-known and controversial name during the pandemic.

    Most recently, Dr. McCullough has come out with a bold claim: that at least half of new COVID infections result from injection failures. You can consider Dr. McCullough’s claims for yourself by listening to his interview below:
