Trust the experts

and how we have lost our confidence to make our own decisions.

There has been much discussion amongst those of us who have made our own decisions related the the recent pandemic, decisions to not wear a mask, not lock down, not have the jab. We have been bemused by how on earth the rest of the human population has been conned or bullied into doing all of these things, against all “common sense” and mostly against all genuine scientific research.

We have several popular theories, and top of the list is probably Matthias Desmet’s theory on “Mass Formation”. If you have not come across this idea yet, it is worth hearing.

However, perhaps it is a little too complicated itself. Is the problem really that complex?

We live in a world where we are bamboozled by experts, and frankly, Matthias Desmet is an “expert”. Has he made things more complicated than they need to be?

It’s All About Confidence

A while back, after a conversation with a friend where we tried to identify why we had retained independent minds and had resisted the brainwashing, I wrote the following.

How could the human race worldwide have allowed tyranny to happen?

It is not about brainwashing, although there is a component of that. 

It is not even about mind control, although there is an even stronger component of that. 

It is about CONFIDENCE.

• I am confident of my ability to engage in research. They are not.

• I am confident of my ability to assess the value of the information I read, watch or listen to. They are not.

• I am confident of my ability to assess the integrity of the person who conducted the research. They are not.

• I am confident of my ability to analyse the results of that research to formulate my own conclusions. They are not.

• I am confident of my ability to direct my own life as I see fit, based on that research. They are not.

• I am confident of my ability to self-medicate if that research leads me to that conclusion. They are not.

• I am confident of my ability to maintain my immune system based on my research. They are not.

The difference between myself and my friends, and the rest of the mind controlled world – is our confidence in our own abilities to manage our own lives.

I trust myself and am prepared to take the consequences if I get it wrong.

The gulf between everyone else and the experts

The gulf between everyone else and the experts has always been wide, but is widening further. There are more and more areas of our lives we simply do not understand. The experts write only for those in their field of expertise. They have gone so far into the detail of what they do, that their language no longer communicates comprehensible concepts to non specialists. They could make their writing accessible to we normal people, but they choose not to. Their only responsibility is to their peers, and to their careers. If they choose to communicate to us, they are accused of “populism” and ridiculed for their efforts.

The end result of this trend over many years is that the population does not know that the experts could communicate to them if they wanted to. They could pass on conceptualised knowledge to us so that we could make sense enough of it to make informed decisions, but they don’t.

The nonsense of the idea of “informed consent”

Informed consent is a person’s decision, given voluntarily, to agree to a healthcare treatment, procedure or other intervention that is made:

. Following the provision of accurate and relevant information about the healthcare intervention and alternative options available; and

. With adequate knowledge and understanding of the benefits and material risks of the proposed intervention relevant to the person who would be having the treatment, procedure or other intervention.

So enter the idea of informed consent, particularly in relation to the plague of the last few years. What a nonsense. It is almost impossible for those not medically trained, and I suspect even most who are medically trained, to work out what the hell is going on with the bug that is killing some of us. We know it is killing people, we know there is something called the spike protein transmitted by the bug but also being deliberately given to us in the jab, and that the spike protein has some potentially deadly side effects.

We know some trained alternative medicos have put together expensive and largely inaccessible treatment protocols requiring medical prescriptions that are not available in many countries. This means that when we try to work out our own protocols we are floundering. We are floundering because we simply do not have enough knowledge to interpret the scientific bullshit that the bullshit artists, including those who are apparently on our side, are giving us. We simply cannot research, analyse, and formulate viable conclusions from the information we are being given.

I was taken to hospital unable to breathe. My blood oxygen was dangerously low so I had no choice. Once in hospital I was diagnosed with supposed covid, taken captive, locked up in solitary confinement for 13 long days, and assaulted every two hours by nurses, some lovely, some doing godzilla impersonations, and all apparently making sure I was still alive. They asked for permission for everything. 10pm, midnight, 2am - you get the picture. And my answer had to be YES. I started to get fed up with this nonsense and so started to say NO, if I did not feel informed about the ramifications of what they were doing to me. If they asked for permission to take my blood pressure, or test my blood sugar, I said YES. After all, I understood what they were doing. If they asked for permission to give me a new drug, I said NO. Why? Because I had no way of giving informed consent, which I carefully explained to them. Their response? “We are just trying to save your life.” Yes, they threatened me with death every time I said NO.

Eventually I did say NO to several medical interventions they tried to impose on me. I had to make up my own mind, despite my brain’s befuddled state given it’s inadequate supply of oxygen. Did I think the intervention might do more harm than good? I had an utterly inadequate understanding of what they wanted to do to me and little chance of thinking it through with any level of rationality. Simply, I was expected to be compliant, 100% compliant. Although they asked for permission for everything, it was only to protect them from litigation, not to ensure I understood what was being done to me.

You can read more about my experiences with the bug here. It is probably not what we think it is. But what would I know? I am not an “expert”.

The vagus nerve and the bug

The world has become too complicated for us to understand much any more

As the world becomes increasingly complicated, the aspects of our own lives we simply don’t understand become greater and greater. We may all be adapting to our SMART devices and doing more and more through them, but how many of us even know how to change the SIM card, let alone how the devices work, and how to fix them if they stop working? I have learned to navigate around my SMART TV, and can get to destinations I have discovered by chance. I can repeat the steps I took and most times I get to the same place, but sometimes I get to somewhere else and do not understand why the menus are showing differently and behaving differently. I can understand enough to get around but not fluently.

This is a metaphor for our lives now. We can get around, just. But we often do not understand the rules that constrain us to take one path or another.

So is it any wonder that the bulk of human kind have decided they have no choice but to follow “the rules” and “trust the experts”. If they follow the rules, they might just survive long enough to get to where they think they are going. But if they dare to step outside those rules, how on earth can they understand the place they have landed, and make informed decisions?

So back to me

I spent the second half of my working life as a technical writer. It was my job to take unintelligible technical gobbledygook from deliberately obfuscating technical experts, and make it comprehensible to the real people. I had to write something simple, knowing that it was probably wrong, take it to those arrogant little snots, have them ridicule me for the inaccuracy, force them to tell me the story a different way, go back and rewrite it, until I got something they could agree was right. That took confidence, huge confidence, to resist their put-downs, and eventually get to something that the real people could understand. I was good at it.

And I can’t not do that. After 30 years in that job, my natural tendency to simplify complex data, into something comprehensible, was consolidated, and I have to do it with everything. And, as for the trigger words, “trust the experts”, it does not matter whether we trust them or not. It is our obligation to understand the world we are living in, and give “informed consent” - or say NO, to everything the experts would do to us or impose upon us, without our consent.

Democracy cannot exist if we are not informed and confident in our ability to understand and apply valid information to our daily decisions in life.

If we don’t demand the right to truly “informed consent”, we deserve what we are getting, tyranny.
