Conspiracy Theorists Proved Right as Science Heads into the Abyss
One undeniable outcome of the pandemic is that the public’s faith in scientific and medical authorities is perhaps at its lowest point in living memory, and no objective observer can truly be surprised.
At the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, the US President’s Chief Medical Adviser Dr Anthony Fauci and US Surgeon General Dr Jerome Adams told us not to wear masks, until they instructed us to wear one everywhere we went.
The Covid vaccines were declared to be effective at preventing the spread of disease until breakthrough cases around the globe proved that wasn’t so, and that effectiveness was downgraded to ‘against hospitalization and death.’
Both The Lancet and the New England Journal of Medicine, two of the most prestigious medical journals in the world, have issued embarrassing retractions to widely publicised papers eventually found to have too little validity to be published.
Anyone who suggested that the pandemic originated in a Wuhan laboratory and not a Chinese wet market was labelled a conspiracy theorist by official sources who later had to admit they were possibly correct. The same proved true for everyone who accused Fauci and the National Institutes of Health of funding gain-of-function research at the lab: they were crazy until they were right.
The US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists urged all pregnant women to be vaccinated, asserting that the new injections were completely safe. Now, a new review of that same data suggests that one in eight women spontaneously aborted her pregnancy after getting the jab.
Even medical terms, such as herd immunity, and the word ‘vaccine’ itself, have literally been redefined over the past few months. All this has shocked a great number of informed, educated people around the world. Should it, though?
In fact, a brief glance through the history of science demonstrates that scientists being completely and utterly wrong, in retrospect, often comically so, is the norm, not an aberration. It’s long past time for modern scientific researchers to discover a proper sense of humility and to step down from the pedestal of the secular priesthood they’ve ascended.
Stories about an advisory panel’s recommendation to the Food and Drug Administration to approve a Moderna booster shot contained a quote that most might find truly incredible.
‘It’s more a gut feeling rather than based on really truly serious data,’ said biochemistry professor Dr Patrick Moore. ‘The data itself is not strong, but it is certainly going in the direction that is supportive of this vote.’
How can a scientific advisory panel make such a recommendation while admitting it’s based on a gut feeling, not fact?
In fact, it happens all the time. ‘Medical consensus’ is a term that carries an authoritative denotation, yet it simply means that a bunch of experts got together and decided amongst themselves what’s correct – including their gut feelings. The problem is that, today and in the past, those experts, in virtually every field, are so often wrong.
Climate data has been gathered and climate modelling performed for almost a century now, and dire predictions have proceeded accordingly for 50 years. Famines would hit the United States in the 1970s; a new ice age would freeze the globe, while energy demand would boil rivers dry; the depletion of the ozone layer would lay waste to life on Earth.
Perhaps the most dramatic was the promise in 1969 that ‘everybody will disappear in a cloud of blue steam in twenty years.’ These doomsayers were highly trained scientists from major universities and national research centres, not street-corner cultists wearing cardboard signs. Nevertheless, the deadlines and the headlines passed without apocalypse.
In fact, the list of outdated scientific and medical theories once broadly considered true and now seen as incomplete, inaccurate, or utterly fictional with no tether to reality whatsoever, is extraordinarily long. Naturally, modern researchers will argue that those past scientists were wrong, but we know better now, and scientists today are promoting and teaching accurate information.
Are they? Have the experts been right on Covid-19, or have they littered the past two years with unfulfilled predictions, bad advice, and misinformation? Are there any true ‘experts’ on a novel disease at all? What else are we being told is ‘scientific fact’ that future generations will chuckle at while shaking their heads?
On November 10th, the World Health Orgainsation admits the war on Covid has failed. But thanks to those who gave it a shot those who didn’t give it a shot emerge from the eternal virus as the ‘we told you so’ winners.
The WHO’s Europe director, Hans Kluge, has warned that the Covid pandemic won’t end until nations learn to live with the virus-like flu and colds, simply ensuring health systems are not overwhelmed by infections and deaths.
Yet, mainstream media always in on the kill has been heavily promoting WHO propaganda. What are the chances of the media reporting their admission of abject failure? Zilch!
Anthropogenic climate change that will wreak untold havoc unless the jet-setting governments of the world can have more of your money and control over your lives? Gender theory that relegates chromosomal and biological reality to an incidental genetic quirk that must be corrected by hormone therapy and surgery?
Considering the current and growing misgivings of the trustworthiness of scientific and medical authorities, perhaps two pieces of advice might be useful.
First, to the general public: science is a process of epistemology, that is, how things can be known, which is incredibly useful, but limited in scope.
The scientific method depends on an experiment being repeatable and measurable. Hence, scientific inquiry is definitionally limited to the present and the material. Beware any ‘scientific expert’ making dispositive assertions about the past or the future and attempting to shout everyone else out of the room.
Second, to physicians, researchers, and the scientific and medical communities at large: approach your roles with some humility. Even children have immediate access to pocket computers, with libraries of information.
Yes, that includes piles of misinformation that need to be corrected. That said, you do no one favours, yourselves most of all when you overstep the bounds of experimental knowledge and adopt the roles of priests, prophets, and oracles. Your collective lack of humility, as we’ve seen over and over in the context of Covid-19, can result in real harm.
For the public to regain its faith in science, scientists must cast off the arrogant authority that at this point is tattered and torn anyway.

You are undoubtedly right but science is soo 20th century! Don’t you know its been superseded by scientism and scientism is whatever they say it is. Who are they you ask, its those who hold the purse strings of course. Come on PSI get with the program forget any old fashioned thoughts you may have about integrity and feel the width of the money.

“On November 10th, the World Health Orgainsation admits the war on Covid has failed.” Read this carefully and critically, “the war on COVID,” not the war on falsely declaring/defining the COVID and or its associated virus and illness.
The war on COVID was hugely successful. They brought the world to its knees (for financial and authoritative gains) and it is not over yet. However, they are keeping the “science” narrative of the fake virus and the COVID for “future pandemics.” There is no war against that.
However, I agree with the view presented in the article, others might be starting to challenge the “official” or MSM narrative. Tough road ahead!

This has never happened before in our lifetimes. They are taking it step by step, day by day. As the vaccine has not been used before, that also is a first. Give them a chance!
Or would you prefer no vaccine and end up like the 1918 pandemic where 50 million died?
We knew it started in the Wuhan labs. It was not conspiracy people who said it. Many scientists knew it. China was the first to have the virus, so we knew it came from there.
I,shine how this world would be after two years of covid with NO vaccine!! Horror!!!
