Ask HN: What are we going to do about our captured systems?
Everyone: Check out the long-form discussion between Jordan Peterson and Brian Peckford, Peckford who is the last living First Minister who helped write our Charter of Rights - and he just a day or two ago filed a lawsuit against the Federal government for violating it, and not only that - they didn&#x27;t even follow the due process if they did want to use the &quot;reasonable exception&quot; mechanism: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=EdhFuMDLBDM" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=EdhFuMDLBDM</a> - which Peckford doesn&#x27;t believe the pandemic doesn&#x27;t meet the criteria for - the first 90-120 days was unknown, but after that the data was in, and he believes the reaction doesn&#x27;t match the necessary definition of society being in peril.<p>Canadians: Check out the FreeNorthDeclaration.ca - sign it if you care if laws are being broken and due process isn&#x27;t being followed in Canada; 500+ Canadian lawyers have signed it so far, in hopes to educate Canadians of these abuses.<p>Most Canadians don&#x27;t realize that parliament was closed for most of the pandemic so there&#x27;s been basically no public debate, no opposition, to the actions of the Trudeau government - nor that of our health agencies; $400+ billion was arguably poorly spent. Every Canadian should watch this video but I&#x27;m afraid there&#x27;s so much blind hate and anger for unvaccinated people, perpetuated regularly by Trudeau (hate crimes&#x2F;crimes against humanity IMHO, people may disagree but we have judges and a judiciary process for a reason - laypeople are laypeople and not experts in legal domains, etc), that most people on Canadian subreddits either heavily downvote what I say or even ban me - just for sharing above what I have.<p>Everyone: Check out the Great Barrington Declaration - gbdeclaration.org - a multi-disciplinary group of experts from the US, who among other things point to a growing number of legitimate studies that suggest you&#x27;re more likely to catch COVID after you&#x27;ve been vaccinated (not immediately of course, that&#x27;s not what they&#x27;re saying, but once the waning immunity starts you&#x27;re more likely to catch COVID afterward than if you didn&#x27;t get vaccinated; and in one sense that&#x27;s easy to understand, as the vaccine specifically targeted the spike protein of the &quot;first&quot; variant, the original virus, but it&#x27;s evolved significantly multiple times now - now with Omicron; so it seems that by vaccinating it seems we&#x27;ve somehow reduced the immune system from responding as well to future infection; there is also growing body of data that shows there&#x27;s an uptick in other viruses after being vaccinated, and an uptick in certain cancers or conditions caused by viruses, arguably the mRNA vaccine is brute force telling the immune system where to direct its resources - and so then if the immune system is managing and keeping other viruses at bay, it no longer can - I could cite this too but I&#x27;m getting tired and don&#x27;t have it readily available so I&#x27;d have to search again.<p>And how about this story of Maddie De Garay, which I believe calls into question the integrity of all of the vaccine clinical trials, just watch it - roughly 10 minutes of testimony for how they were treated during and after the Pfizer vaccine trial for 12-15 year olds: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=L2GKPYzL_JQ" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=L2GKPYzL_JQ</a>. The excuses I’ve seen online to just to discredit or discount Maddie and her mother are disgusting and unconscionable IMHO, and shows people don&#x27;t actually care about the scientific process, they don&#x27;t truly care for integrity nor for the whole truth. People have dismissed what happened to Maddie as automatically not being due to the vaccine, but that’s not how clinical trials work if they have integrity - you include all events that occur, and not minimize what happens to someone - nor suppress results by defining a narrow scope of what you’re actually allowed to report on, as Maddie’s mother testifies as part of the application provided for reporting symptoms&#x2F;potential adverse events - stating that there was no free-form way to include details. Thus far, as far as I know but since their testimony in the video linked above, no one from Pfizer, the clinical trial, nor any US government health agency (or otherwise) has been in contact with Maddie and her mother. If that doesn’t freeze you, put you in a state of shock, then wake up, please.<p>We have an intellectual-ideological crisis in Canada, I imagine around most of the world, and our mainstream media has been captured too - they are toeing the line and not doing actual investigative journalism. Why? Are they all so arrogant that they know best or are they afraid of going counter-narrative, of the potential repercussions, to go against the coercion (which by law in Canada is considered abuse, and informed consent isn&#x27;t possible for anything under a state of coercion; advertising works, companies spend money on it because messaging influences&#x2F;manipulates people even if they don&#x27;t realize it)?<p>This comment took time to write and it most likely will get downvoted by ideologues (I originally wrote first draft for Reddit, I expect somewhat better behaviour from HN but it’s hit or miss whether you gain enough attention from critical thinkers vs. reactive people who will quickly downvote because they’re triggered by a name or anything counter-mainstream narrative) who want to maintain the mainstream narrative, who will be reactive to one or more things I say, and then they&#x27;re empowered to lazily click a downvote button for a hit of dopamine - to get rewarded and settle their emotional response by reacting - instead of diving into what I&#x27;m saying, watching the video links I provided in full - and with a clear, unbiased state of curiosity to then dive deeper if they feel the need. I can understand and appreciate the cognitive dissonance people will face when starting to see the whole truth and how that is warped from the mainstream narrative and mass formation psychosis people are in - a phenomenon discovered after studying what happened in Nazi Germany, where a highly educated, thriving society turned into madness - or at least allowed madness to happen under their own watch; there are plenty of videos, articles, books on this.<p>Remembrance Day - Lest we forget. Most Canadians have forgotten. Coercion towards vaccination, mandates are wrong - regardless of all the other policy failures that could be pointed out; and how there was a 51% increase in suicide attempts by young girls [12-25 year olds] during the first year pandemic, meanwhile luckily we have examples around the world that show a very different story, where they weren&#x27;t the most locked-down&#x2F;shutdown place in the world like Ontario has been; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nbcmontana.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;nation-world&#x2F;cdc-saw-51-increase-in-suicide-attempts-by-adolescent-girls-during-pandemic" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;nbcmontana.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;nation-world&#x2F;cdc-saw-51-increase...</a> + the CDC source: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cdc.gov&#x2F;mmwr&#x2F;volumes&#x2F;70&#x2F;wr&#x2F;mm7024e1.htm" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cdc.gov&#x2F;mmwr&#x2F;volumes&#x2F;70&#x2F;wr&#x2F;mm7024e1.htm</a><p>And to finish off I&#x27;ll quote what Elon Musk tweeted yesterday: &quot;If you scare people enough, they will demand removal of freedom. This is the path to tyranny.&quot; - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;elonmusk&#x2F;status&#x2F;1486846468887560201" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;elonmusk&#x2F;status&#x2F;1486846468887560201</a>. He&#x27;s not some dumb capitalist who only cares about money as the hateful mob chant, rallied by people like Bernie Sanders and AOC to hate billionaires [regardless of any nuance differentiation between billionaires; just like Trudeau is hateful against the unvaccinated to train most Canadians to be in two different&#x2F;divided camps - &quot;us&quot; vs. &quot;them&quot; - psychology 101; for which Trudeau needs to be tried for promoting hate, among other things]. Elon cares deeply about humanity, about suffering, he&#x27;s a very sensitive individual and why he has been so driven to what he&#x27;s doing now; yes, he&#x27;s eccentric at times, he trolls people as a way to vent, and he reacts poorly sometimes too - he&#x27;s also a growing, evolving human with a lot of responsibility and important work he&#x27;s doing. I understand everyone is growing in this process which is why we need compassion and forgiveness, but with consequences to appropriate degrees for those who willingly skirted the law. And people are so scared in Canada that they’re accepting Trudeau’s hate speech - pretending to represent Canadians, meanwhile only 20% of Canadians actually voted for him [he got 33% of votes - but not all Canadians vote; Conservatives actually got 34% of votes, and while our electoral system unfairly advantaging the duopoly kept in power by the establishment - a Canadian’s vote often doesn’t actually count, for example, 5% of Canadians voted for the People’s Party of Canada (PPC) but won zero seats in parliament, 5% of Canadians have zero representation or voice in our parliament - in discussing policy and governance].<p>Tyranny (whether through malice and&#x2F;or incompetence) is what the truckers and their supporters are protesting against, lest we forget.<p>[3&#x2F;3]
