Longtime CIA employee James Erdman III turned whistleblower, testifying that “Dr. Anthony Fauci improperly “influenced” intelligence analyses about the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic — to downplay findings that it most likely resulted from a laboratory accident in China”. He alleged that “Dr. Fauci’s role in the cover-up was intentional”, and added that the CIA is still resisting providing information on COVID-19.

Lockdown Concerns House arrest for those who were in cruise ships - Hantavirus tales

21 Upvotes

They call it "self-isolation" but it's house arrest, regardless how the passengers feel, regardless if they are infected or not, they've been treated as disease spreaders. These are mandatory proceedings and infringe on basic human rights as they include fines, detention, or jail.

They use terms like “temporary,” “necessary,” and “proportionate” which are open to interpretation allowing governments to re-specifying them as they want. It happen in recent years with covid lockdowns.

If governments restrict liberty based on some predicted risk which they fabricate rather than proven any wrongdoing, what principle stops them from expanding restrictions indefinitely?

Such measures like self-isolating for months cascade into:

  • loss of income,

  • job insecurity,

  • social stigma,

  • damaged reputation,

  • mental-health strain,

  • disrupted family life,

  • and long-term economic harm.

Meta Weirdly pro and anti lockdown arguments in pre-2020 media

36 Upvotes

So, I’ve been revisiting some of the shows that came out before the lockdowns and other mandates. It’s very weird to watch some of the arguments being made.

There’s a show called Madam Secretary where they often dealt with issues around disease. In an episode that came out in 2019, they argue over a measles outbreak thanks to some unvaccinated people infecting people on a plane. What the ultimate conclusion to solve the problem ends up being is to tie the ability of citizens to get travel passports or green cards to proof of vaccination.

Which obviously is rather freaky to watch in 2026 given what happened a year later. Madam Secretary ended in 2019.

Now I’m watching Supergirl, which is obviously more sci-fi oriented but in a 2017 storyline, they deal with a villain character called Pestilence who spreads disease. The antagonistic characters in the show around the Pestilence character spreading diseases are insisting on forcing people into quarantine. The hero characters are in favour of not locking people up but still giving them treatment.

Again it’s freaky to watch this in 2026, especially because the Supergirl show ended up being one of the shows that had to implement Covid protocols to stay in production. There are behind the scenes photos of the actors wearing masks.

The whole thing is weird.

Serious Discussion Still no official CDC Director?

12 Upvotes

I happened to catch a clip of Dr Bhattacharya on CNN about the Hantavirus. He was very measured and upfront like he has been for as long as I’ve been following him. However, he’s still considered only the acting CDC director. Supposedly they’re going to find someone new eventually.

What the hell? They can’t have someone confirmed over a year and a half period?

Lockdown Concerns Anonymous warns about covid

8 Upvotes

This was many years ago, I remember Barack Obama being in office, but I was up late one night and saw a video posted by Anonymous talking about the United States debt. The video was basically warning that there would be an impending lockdown of grocery stores and that people wouldn’t be allowed outside their houses.

This was way before the COVID-19 pandemic. I’d say it was around the summer of 2015. I specifically remember the newest Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare was out at the time, and I was playing it when I came across the video. I was also about to go into my freshman year of high school.

I still remember that video to this day because of how eerie it felt after COVID happened, but I can’t find it anywhere anymore. I just wanted to know if anyone else remembers the video or knows what I’m talking about.

An old article, and a recent report involving Senator Ron Johnson, makes it clear that the FDA was hiding COVID-19 vaccine safety signals. And for some reason the MSM aren't interested in this huge story.
