Trust in our leaders and the media has been choked by Covid-19 and – at the time of writing this – we have been under house arrest by our government for almost 450 days.
The ordinary citizen – no longer on the street – believes they are being misled by those in power. And those with influence.
We are so close to living in a horror Netflix world of dystopian proportions it is far more than a scary movie.
And it is true that so many of our hard-won freedoms have been torn from us and thrown over the parapets into the no-go camps in the valley below.
The Edelman Trust is a barometer of our society. For 20 years it has been used to poll thousands of us over our trust of the cores of our institutions and society.
And that barometer has found 57% of people believe government leaders, business chiefs and journalists are spreading falsehoods and exaggerations.
“We have a leadership crisis,” Richard Edelman, whose Edelman communications group produces the survey, told Reuters.
“In a crisis, traditionally, you get quality information from government, and from media, and both of those are seen to have failed: media because it’s seen as ideological and biased, and government because the leaders have lied to us about masks and about hydroxychloroquine, and miracle cures.”
These findings hit at two things which will rock our world. Learning and voting.
As a whole, confidence in the institution of government fell from an all-time high of 65% last May to 53% by year-end. Losses were particularly acute in South Korea, Britain and China.
Trust in media, which had already been ebbing in the survey since 2019, fell further. Confidence in traditional media outlets dropped 8 points to 53% although they still attracted more trust than social media, which fell five points to 35%.
The problem is, that as humans, we rely on others help us make up our minds. To inform our opinions. That is actually the strength of our society – we pay attention to authority figures and majority opinions.
So, people in positions of authority have a duty to be careful with what they say to us.
For example, recently, President Trump repeatedly and confidently suggested that an old malaria treatment, chloroquine, could treat coronavirus. He said it was “safe,” that he had a “good feeling” about it and that it could be “one of the biggest game changers in the history of medicine.”
He was incredibly wrong. Yet people still defend him over it today.
Right now, I believe we all need to be more intellectually humble.
We need to recognize that there are scientists and medical experts out there who have the knowledge and expertise we need to make difficult decisions.
And they are willing to share all that information with us.
The media and online platforms need to be the scientists’ way of getting this information across to us.
We all have a critical role to play, whether we are journalists, keyboard warriors or bloggers.
Sadly, at the moment, online sites mainly re-post and recycle content, which distorts the facts. At least MsM investigates and asks the right questions.
Here a good friend of mine, Terry Kevin Charles – just an ordinary bloke doing his best to get by and help people where he can – talks to me about why he believes the whole Covid thing is a conspiracy.
And he makes some very interesting points.
Q. Do you believe there is a pandemic?
A. No I don’t. Reason? Nobody I know has lost friends or family on a scale that resembles a pandemic. Added to this I have a vast circle of friends and colleagues and yet I personally know of just one person in 14 months who’s succumbed to what we’re told is Covid-19, this person was already in poor health so who knows?
We’re told people are dying of this new virus but what about their underlying health conditions? For example: final stages of terminal cancer lead to respiratory problems which is what leads to end of life?
It appears from official stats and figures that this end-stage of life is now renamed as Covid-19.
Q. What is happening to the world then, and why?
A. Firstly, I agree with Bill Gates and Boris Johnson, that the world is out of control in the way of population growth. For decades far too many irresponsible people continue having babies without thought or being able to support their growing children. This leads to the destruction of basic common decency throughout all levels of society.
There has to be a pull-back from our leaders who are above the glass ceiling and I believe this is what’s happening throughout the world right now.
“Population control, and reduction”
Q. When did world controllers, governments, banks, kings and queens, conglomerates, police forces, civil servants, armed forces … so many of these already with dissenting voices and at war in some way or other … get together covertly and come up with this mass conspiracy against us all?
A. As you know our lives are based around what we see and what we hear. But our lives are busier now than they’ve ever been. The only time we get to relax is when we sit down in front of the TV set.
We then take in much of this information, it is constant and consistent and we tend to believe what we’re told. It’s a form of drip feeding.
Drip feeding, as you know yourself, can be extremely dangerous because people tend to believe the consistent story, summing this up I’m talking about the mainstream media.
Unfortunately money blinds us to damage being done to society. For example, if I’m offered a “development” contract for 50 million pounds I’d be a fool to turn it down.
I see the £ sign and base my life around it. This is my success but what I miss is what irreparable harm I’m doing by chasing the £. On my street right now we’re having smart city systems installed, this includes surveillance cameras including 5G.
The people who are to be affected by this new network had no say in this, to me that’s wrong, if we’re affected by something then surely we should have some say as to whether we want it installed, particularly as the current systems are working satisfactorily.
Even if it’s through a voting system, then at least the people will have had some say. But no, it’s done regardless of our wishes.
When I drive past the workmen digging deep into the ground to install this new system I think to myself, “when you’re in a hole stop digging”, another biblical one is this, “forgive them for they not know what they do”.
In summing up the answer to this question is: We’re given instructions from above, those instructions rarely come from one or two levels above us, they come from those high above the glass ceiling and many of us rarely question where the instructions come from. When my line manager gives me an instruction I have never asked him who gave him the instruction. We simply go along with what we’re told by our direct superior.
Q. Why did nobody leak it, given the media of all sorts is so massive today?
A. It has been leaked and continues to be leaked. Unfortunately many of those who have attempted to put out the truth have been censored, banned etc. Dr Mike Yeadon is a perfect example, he’s the former Vice President of Pfizer and an ambassador for vaccines.
This is the one and only vaccine that he’s against and has warned the people not to take. Why would he do that?
Facebook, Twitter and YouTube continue to censor people such as Mike Yeadon from putting factual evidence out there if it challenges the government and their scientist’s narrative.
Platforms such as Bitchute continue to be called a place for fake news but when platforms such as Facebook and YouTube censor people where else are these health professionals to go in order to get their information out?
Q. What is the benefit of this mass conspiracy against us all?
A. Control: Population control, Control of the people. Fear is the driving factor in all of this.
Q. We are already controlled by all the people above and all of them too have access to the world of information?
A. I liken this to a large island. We have all the people of the world on this island, including the elites, but the island is no longer safe and is slowly sinking into the sea. The elites of this island need to reduce the numbers on the island without it affecting them. I believe this is why the world as we knew/know it is changing.
“Ordinary people reduction”
Q. The world is being reset as we speak… but is it for the betterment of the planet?
A. For me no. It absolutely is not for the betterment of the planet. It’s for the betterment of the wealthy few, the people who will be badly affected by this changing world will ‘as always’ be the lower classes.
A lot of mistakes have been made along the way and a lot of people have had their lives ruined. I have lost four friends to Covid.
But i have also been lucky enough, because, of my job, to carry on travelling … mainly by car …. across once non-existent borders …. and have been able to see family members for short periods. But what would you do differently to Boris and all the other world powers?
A. Hmm
Regarding the handling of the pandemic I would have closed our borders at the first sign of danger of the virus getting into the UK, in other words, closed the borders in November December 2019.
Q. How would you stop this destruction of our world?
A. I would work on restructuring the education system where life and social skills are taught as a matter of vital importance. Currently we’re focused on career pathways which is of course correct.
But as is often the case many people who struggle in this regard get left behind, they are often seen as society’s failures/society’s rejects, these people then go on to struggle to fit into the world and very often end up living a dysfunctional chaotic lifestyle; bringing children into the world who grow up with the same chaotic mindset as their parents. Hence we need to teach life skills, social skills, how to behave responsibly, to our young people and show them how to adapt in an ever challenging world.
It’s a sad fact that many parents struggle to rear their offspring, in a perfect world the responsibility would be down to the parents but society has changed dramatically for the worst since our younger days.
The affect of this continues to have a detrimental effect on society as a whole.
Imagine if we were to steer those challenged and dysfunctional types onto a better pathway, society would be the winner both mentally and financially, instead we have a them and us society.
Q. What would you return to? Fisciality? Commerce? Industry? Or the brutalism of alternative lifestyles and funding?
A. I’m not too versed on this subject but I’d say that based around my life experience I would say industry as the great majority of ordinary people tend to work within that sector.
Q. How does not wearing masks, not having jabs etc guarantee the future any more than the way Boris and all the others does?
A. For centuries we have had flu viruses, whenever we’ve caught the flu we’ve been told by our doctor that there’s nothing they can give us and we should stay home and take in plenty of fluids and keep warm as the virus has to run its course.
This is the advice I would have continued to give out, certainly until we know the outcomes from the three year vaccine trials, I believe it to be a huge risk to the people of the world to inject them all with something which is still in its trial phase.
Regarding mask wearing or not mask wearing I can only go back to my younger days when my parents told me to go out and get some fresh air, by mixing with others we have always been told by the science that this is the best way to build up immunity, by breathing in fresh air we’ve always been able to positively affect our respiratory system.
