>>2417065Anime is definitely a psy-op. After Hiroshima Japan leaned into the "cute"/infantile image bc countries are led by moids and Japan basically trooned itself bc it felt like a fail-male
>The childlike cheerfulness of these sections of the news felt inappropriate to me and I wondered why the Japanese news casters felt it necessary to flood the network with such appearances. I jumped into yet another rabbit hole of research, and learned of the origin of kawaii culture (cute culture) in Japan, and how as a means of coping with the traumas of World War II and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan responded with a wave of childish and cute themed art, products, and mascots.
>Kawaii culture still exists today, and is essentially a manifestation of Japan’s feeling of being an underdog, or a nation stripped of a sense of power, according to a report written by behavioural scientist Hiroshi Nittono from Hiroshima University. After learning about this aspect of Japanese culture, I am beginning to notice how themes of repression and indirect forms of coping with trauma appear in Obasan and I think it has given me a unique lens to analyze the novel through. https://blogs.ubc.ca/sabrinadang/2016/11/17/cute-culture-in-japan-and-coping-with-trauma/ No. 2417158

Think of that Wall-E movie where society “advanced” so much most people could sit on their ass and waste away, because all of the work worth a shit (stuff that got food in people’s grocery stores and tables, keep their electricity up, plumbing and not all of that bullshit fluff that defined the middle-class) was downscaled. I used to think that movie was full of shit but honestly.. you’re going to have even more useless people. I think people now are already useless and that’s why they don’t give a fuck. Why would they pretend to care about you when their plans are going according to their own agenda? Stop screaming about healthcare and “lack of pay”, you want that shit for jobs that never mattered and shouldn’t have existed lol. You’ve been rightfully thrown away, it was intentional and most people don’t care because they are still begging and waiting for the same shit that only worked in a certain era, wanting the old ways to always work is just retarded.

I think humans are way too tribal and greedy and want to pull the ladder up after them (if that's the right figure of speech).
I don't even think being a billionaire should be a thing. Once you reach that billionaire status you should be made to contribute a large amount of it back into public services to better the country you live in. This is more important now than ever because the average person's view of a "decent life" like you said has dropped in quality and material power compared to how it was pre-2007. We're working twice as hard with half of the rewards and hard work doesn't pay anymore in most industries.

Here's my guess:
>be average Japanese boy or man
>want to watch a fun anime after school or work
>turn on TV, find some show you may or may not like of whatever genre
>watch the episode for 25 minutes
>rinse and repeat once a week until the season is over
>if it's a fun anime maybe read the manga or novels at a cheap manga cafe or buy the series for dirt cheap in a second hand bookstore
>maybe look for other similar stories if it was really fun to read or watch or post a tweet once every 6 months "I liked the recent anime about [whatever] it was very fun!" or something like that
Compare this to:
>be average Western guy
>watch some random anime episodes on TV long ago after work or school
>it's very different from live action shows and fun in its own way so you look up other what other fun anime there is online
>turns out there's a shit ton of fun manga and anime about a lot of differenr genres, topics and for different demographics but not all of them are or were readily available where you are, you've been filtered all along
That's where the split happens:
>normal, well adjusted Western anime fan will simply watch whatever seems fun on TV or streaming platforms and will call it a day, will maybe become nostalgic for whatever shonenslop he grew up with in middle school, is unlikely to troon out and is likely to have other hobbies and interests
>dedicated, well adjusted anime fan will actively follow new releases, will maybe buy some Naruto tshirts from Uniqlo and will go to anime cons if he can afford it, is unlikely to troon out and likely to have many other hobbies and interests
>autistic dedicated Western anime fan is more likely to troon out and base his trannysona on some garbage genderbent harem anime slop character, believing that women act just like anime waifu because nothing else matter and will advertise it all over the internet all the time
Basically it's a matter of proportions and how Western fans have to more actively become fans in the first place so normal guys who could have liked some anime series if they knew about them are less likely to drown out the more vocal troons.
No. 2419681
>>2419672Not really, the main audience for anime is still Japan and the anime that Western troons like are originally targeting a male Japandse otaku audience. And these same Japanese men have very similar interests and fetishes as Western troons but still don't transition as often. Or the ones that do keep it to themselves a lot more often while people in the West in general are a lot more likely to publicly posts about their personal lives and their selfies.
>normie anime series are catered towards a japanese audienceNormie Westerners can also be into these same anime now that it's easier than ever to find series you can like online as opposed to relying on what's on tv but it's true that they're not enough and not vocal enough compared to Western hardcore otaku.

The child explotation in elite groups stuff has faded in and out of popularity for years now and I'm aware it's a low hanging fruit of a conspiracy but I'm curious of what you nonnas think of recent news that's come out about things, especially with the Diddy case and how far that really goes, and also mentions of demonic and satanic stuff - do you think that's a reach or do you think it's believable?
Justin Bieber is looking like shit lately and it's heavily implied that he was groomed or underwent some form of abuse from older men in the industry when he was younger. All the news articles I've read about him have blamed his dishevelled appearance on some sort of financial issues but if you ask me they're placing bricks in place to use that as a scapegoat if he ends up "killing himself" or overdosing.
I personally think that Diddy, much like with Epstein, is just being placed on the guillotine now for people to focus on him and not the others who are pulling the strings. It's very rare that stuff like this is just isolated incidents especially with how insidious Hollywood is.

Personally, I don't think JB looks disheveled at all, at least not in that picture. He looks like a normal 30 year old. He's quite a well-known stoner too.
No. 2420220
>>2420172Of course, Diddy was only the one that got caught, maybe because he was so cocky, weird and particular about it. With him it was obvious because of the shady parties he used to host and the videos with him and young artists, or even the fact that he and his friends had custody of minors. But I do believe it's a thing that many elite people practice. After all we already got our confirmations with both Epstein and Diddy, it's not as unbelievable now.
But I also believe it's not that simple. For example, I think JB was groomed and then became an active and willing participant in adulthood. He most likely became the abuser at some point, and many like him which is why no one snitched for a long time (aside from the fact that some were threatened/killed).
I don't fully believe in the satanic stuff. I think it's an aesthetic rich pretentious edgy fuckers love to use at their sick orgy parties with children, but nothing supernatural actually goes on or that they're an organized cult.

There was a few documentaries in the 90s where they show off the prosthetic thing. They'll have standard sex with a few moids and then go into the black box for the gang bang part. Everyone has seen those breast chest plate things, it's kind of like that with a sex doll attached. The idea that someone wouldn't use prosthetics to simulate a gangbang is much crazier than hundreds of women deciding to do this on camera. Or starring in violent gang bang porn and then "sharing your trauma" otherwise known as promoting the footage to moids who get off on legitimate trauma/pain who might not have seen it yet or will rewatch now that they know how much she has allegedly suffered. I feel like a-logging when I see women complain about the popularity of these clips, after they go on podcasts every scrote listens to, like "Call her Daddy" to "trauma dump" about them

I mean prom really is just entertainment mimicking the real actual thing, which gets anti-porn moralfags in a tizzy because they know it’s just projected degeneracy that happens behind closed doors, they’re only angry about pork because it showcases things that happen in the dark to the light that they have likely participated in. I still think it’s degenerate and disgusting but my honest tinfoil now that you shared that information that porn is just a fake smokescreen, all of those “sex trafficked” women must be going somewhere else

>>2420864>I really doubt the majority of all porn produced is 'fake' in the sense that it uses prostheticsIt wasn't for a while, there was legitimate "rape on tape" that was all removed and replaced with fake content. Not to be gross but you can tell cum (female/male) is fake most of the time. A lot of it is tricky camera work, editing/filters and prosthetics with hosing/wiring. Scrotes complain about the sanitization of porn but these companies don't want to get sued by all of the (underage) women who were featured in the videos. It's a way to keep control over the content and not have to deal with the fallout from lawsuits/etc

Maybe one of the bigger studios would actually care to fake the sex part (or for real movies it's known they do that) but to go trough all that trouble instead of paying junkies to have sex is pretty nutty.
At most the bigger studios use fake cum
specifically for gangbangs cuz moid brain but it's not standard at all.

Celebrities are homonculi. They are artificial humans which is why so many of them look like crossbreeds, hybrids, non-human in some aspects. Because they aren’t human they constantly need “maintenance” to be alive, Harvey Pasternak didn’t just put Kanye in the nutter house for no reason, they go to these nutter houses and certain hospitals (Mount Sinai hospital is oddly popular with celebrities and the wealthy) to give them their maintenance. I would assume that’s what those “performance drugs” he was giving to other celebrities besides Kanye was, but I truly believe they aren’t humans and this isn’t a compliment. It’s why they always felt so incomplete to me, think of Pinnochio and Geppetto where Pinnochio only has childlike fixations and nothing else, there are non complex feelings or emotions. Some become a bit rebellious and want to overcome the grip of their masters and creators, which is why so many of them die early.

There’s a female goddess named Tiamat who used to represent this chaos (the original state of the world) and many more beings, but people don’t mention or make these connections because ofc people are more comfortable with having a big daddy in the sky (or saturn’s lullabies) to pray to and worship despite the origins of humanity have a huge dark past.

>>2426991hehe sorry for being facetious. im referencing some gnostic/classical prechristian ideas.
>the Two from the Onethis is in reference to pythagorean monadism, which is a source of gnostic ideas. pythagoras believed in an 0rder of numbers that reflects the 0rder of the universe; as two evolves from one, duality emerges from totality. the Dyad emerges from the Monad and with it introduces primeval suffering (otherness, division, the pain of separation).
the Monad is perfect totality and unity. it is the self-contained Point of matter. it is Something but it is All Somethings, and Anything must therefore be included in it, and be it, and outside it is Nothing (apeiron; the underfined, the boundless).
the Dyad is the original injury, like the Amfortas wound (in more ways than the obvious). the Dyad is the first instance of Two, separated, with a boundless infinite gulf between them. you can think of the Monad as a circle, and the Dyad as two circles who overlap like a ven diagram, with the overlap erased (not a coincidence that this is a vulval shape). But more than injury and introduction of chaos into the heart of matter, the Dyad is equally a Door to infinity, and the portal (portal in the sense of "door") that creates the Many from the One (the Monad). Thus this "wound" is also an essential point of connection between the Many and the One.
This idea of a cosmic order reflected perfectly in the evolution of numbers
a favourite of mine is also reflected in the story of Tiamat. Tiamat, the goddess of the waters of Chaos, was slain by the storm god (I forget his name), and her body dismembered into many pieces which are scattered and become the cosmos (Many (material) evolving from One (divine)).
>the mother of monstersTiamat is also very relevant to this. Tiamat intermingled her waters (the primordial ocean, chaos, salt water) with the waters of Apsu, the source-god of all fresh water (ie, that water which facilitates life). God antics ensue but skipping forward, Tiamat gives birth to legions of monsters who kill Apsu and scatter over the world. Because she is the embodiment of chaos, Tiamat can only bring forth multitudinous evil.
I won't get into the twin thing but I would like to address the seed of misogyny you may have noticed in this explanation. The mother of monsters thing is a colourful illustration of the themes already present in the more clinical pythagorean mythology. There's a psychoanalyst that I really like who is not widely known (at least in my country) who had a central theory that all birth is essentially traumatic to the child because it is an extremely sudden introduction to a life as a discrete individual surrounded by Other discrete individuals. Using the pythagorean stuff as a scaffold; a fetus is not discrete, it is a part of its mother, the all-encompassing One (as a beautiful etymological aside, I'd like to note that the root for "paradise" is the PIE for "enclosure, enclosed space"). As far as it is aware there is Nothing outside of the One which it exists not just as a part of, but as. Birth is the wound that creates the first Dyad, severing baby from mother. This is the Amfortas wound we all as human beings share. I believe that moids develop serious resentment towards women for this wound because 1. they lack empathy and are unable to reconcile feelings of maternal ambivalence (women get a head start on this because we have to consider the possibilities of being mothers ourselves, also we are generally more intelligent and can empathise) and 2. they understand on some unconscious level the vagina as a reflection of the Door from the One to the Many and thus the only real point of connection between the spiritual and the material and are seethingly jealous because this reminds them that they are essentially filthy hylics who have been divided permanently from paradise.

I don't think Columbine was fabricated, but I absolutely believe that the government does radicalize men into committing school shootings in order to pass gun laws to dearm the population. Even if the government isn't directly talking to these men and worsening their mental health in order to create these shootings, the media definitely heroizes and obsesses over school shooters in order to create more. It's a social contagion in the same way that suicide and trannyism is. So you have to ask yourself why the media would push them so much and cause this social contagion. And if you want a direct contrast of them doing the opposite, look at Luigi. World's biggest thing until they caught him, then suddenly every media dropped it. Meanwhile, they're still talking about the shootings that happened years ago, and bringing up the shooter and the full details anytime anything in the case changes or it's an anniversary.

That's how we knew that more people were dying from covid then they were letting on in the first month, because the carbon dioxide of the infected city suddenly plummeted in a way that couldn't be explained unless ten times the number of people had died.

>>2428487I love Lacan, but I'm actually referring to didier Anzieu, specifically his theory of the skin-envelope. He was not big on lacan funnily enough, really pushed for a return to Freud (and to the organic/body) in psychoanalysis, which I really respect and kind of wish had more staying power. I think one of the funny things about Lacanian psychoanalysis is despite (one of) its purpose(s) being learning to understand (symbolise) incursions of the Real (as the analysand must in order to overcome psychic trauma/wounds without language which underlie pathological behaviour), it ends up just referring to itself (symbols referring to symbols referring to symbols forever) and avoiding the Real altogether. So it kind of becomes a justification for pathology rather than a way out. At least, this is my experience with Lacanian psychoanalysis lol.

He said that the prosthetics changed the entire industry. He did not mention female prosthetics but I could see this being true with the popularity of extreme pornography these days that would probably put women in the hospital if they had to retake so many of the scenes.

There are myths related to this “elixir of life” which I personally believe is connected to blood, period blood, female reproductive parts connected to the theory that abortion clinics were possibly collecting remains of fetuses but it’s possibly even more, there’s something about these materials that can be used for its regenerative qualities.

>>2447638I'm the bot-anon (apparently) but I would be happy to give you an example, questioning-nona. Alchemy uses matter, chemicals and elements as an allegory for an overall "story", that is always different to the person perceiving it, even though the "basics" are always the same. Alchemists are obsessed with studying matter but also impose their own philosophies, religious beliefs (ideas about God) and the relation to chemistry, is that certain elements/chemicals/matter can be distilled and purified, revealing a "pure essence". Reactive nona is technically correct in that witches "use alchemy", but that is bc they are imparting personal/cultural beliefs on matter. I've never personally met a successful, attractive (as in I want to be around them or find them physically beautiful) or self-proclaimed "witch" over the age of 25. They are all obese and collecting benefits, in my experience. I'm definitely a results-oriented person, so my experience has shown that witchcraft is not useful. Troons seem to love it though.

>>2447656Exactly, this doesn't mean that alchemy is unrelated to contemporary chemistry/natural sciences, the correct conclusion is that chemistry/the natural sciences are and always have been guided by occult concerns, just like alchemy was. Experts even still use the same occult language (as in, language that has the intention to hide/obscure truths) in the cutting edges of fields like chemistry/physics, because it gives them plausible deniability and makes people who talk about the spiritual concerns behind what we focus on in the sciences look like schizos.
Einstein's theory of mass energy equivalence was a huge leap forward for alchemists and has been informing occult spirituality ever since. But equally it was informed BY existing esoteric understandings of the material world. Imo the scene was set for the atom bomb as far back as anaximander.

The whole "DEMONS BAD" comes from Abrahamic religious programming trying to keep you ignorant and powerless. There are parasites who pretend to be higher or big name entities though which is what was happening most of the time with cases of documented possession, because pretending to be Lucifer or Satan sounds scarier and makes people easier to feed off of. This world is inverted and nothing is like we've been told to believe. Demons don't need your soul, you cannot sell your sell in exchange for power. It's pretty fucking useless unless you cultivated it over past lives or something and are spiritually ascended in this life to escape the cycle of rebirth. Prison planet theory holds some truth, Buddhists got it somewhat right when they said life is suffering and we're supposed to transcend the cycle of rebirth, it's to escape the entities that keep us trapped in ignorance and feed off of humanity's collective strife and misery. Demons are more about trying to help us escape that and overthrowing the system, coming into your personal power and all that. Sure, there are a lot of whackjobs and cults that do abhorrent things in their name but there will always be people pushing their agendas of control claiming it's the true will of whatever they worship, same for Abrahamic religions.

There are some who get their clients addicted to a "pay for play" drama cycle, like gambling. They're okay with a person having a chaotic life and will encourage that since they'll turn to the "psychic" (con-artist) more often for assurance and direction.
The idea of them using "chaos magic" is annoying bc eventually you can call literally anything "magic". Medical science is "magic", carbonation, whatever.

Do any nonas have thoughts on the Roswell Alien Interview? It’s the story of a woman named Matilda o'donnell macelroy that was published by a guy named Lawrence R Spencer in 1947 (the book was released around 2008 I believe but was written back when the incident was still fresh) where she telepathically communicated with an alien named Ailr from the crash. Apparently lots of people on Reddit mentioned having similar encounters with gray aliens that had no mouths or mentioning that they were told the name of the book telepathically. It goes into a lot of stuff related to Samsara/the Prison Planet about how souls are endlessly/indefinitely reincarnated on Earth for their crimes in past lives or if they’re super creative and can be used to help mine for the other societies out there. I’m not sure if this video is the actual Bob Lazar or just a fan account but it’s a reading of the book. Know that apparently this writer later joined Scientology for 30+ years while writing another book called the Oz Factors according to a leaked email with Graham Hancock so it may be false but I feel there may be something to it since he didn’t join Scientology until decades after, some of it also lines up with recent scientific discoveries / theories. I can’t find all the posts I read but looking up “Roswell Alien Interview” on r/escapingprisonplanet, r/aliens, r/ufos, etc. should get even more info. Ailr is an anagram for Liar so take that as evidence it’s trying to make us reincarnate by making us lose hope or maybe it’s fake also apparently the Matilda lady had sent him this right before she died and he only knew her through phone conversations which is kind of convenient and she was promoted to a position that didn’t exist until 11 years after the “interview” happened but I saw someone say it may just be a red herring to protect her real identity, just to show both sides of the argument. There were a couple of movies/documentaries made about this, I think some were on the history channel too but I’m unsure

>>2465509what do you mean by the vaccine "working"? As in never get COVID? Because vaccines and immunizations are not the same and while you can get a vaccine to fight against a disease, you are not completely immune.
The point of a vaccination is to prepare your body with the antibodies to defend itself from potential pathogens, so while you will still get sick, the symptoms wont be as severe if you went without.
No. 2465824
>>2465784I agree. Plus Selena has multiple tattoos that are very similar to ones both Hailey and Justin have, and most of the outfits Hailey has been accused of copying are either generic LA girl style or else, as you mentioned, the dates were literally changed by the person who made that thread and if you actually Google them instead of blindly believing the twitter thread, the real dates show Hailey wore them first with Selena following usually a few days to a couple of months later. Why is Hailey labelled a stalker based on tenuous and outright fabricated evidence but Selena gets ignored or treated like a
victim despite actually doing the things Hailey is accused of doing and still releasing songs to this day moaning about her ex picking someone else?
It's not a coincidence that every single girl who's been linked to Justin Bieber has been treated like a villain in Selena's story. She can't get over him and is still possessive over him to this day. I bet she's instigating another hate train against Hailey because she feels extra crazy now her and Justin have had a baby. She has crazy stans for some reason, but I'd still be surprised if this level of vitriol and straight up lies were 100% organic.
No. 2465835
>>2465811Again, a vaccination is NOT an immunization. It does not render you immune to infection nor does it reduce your chance of catching it if you are in a high risk area. The only purpose is to prepare your immune system with the antibodies required to fight off against the disease. Its why COVID symptoms from the beginning of the pandemic went from permanent loss of taste and chronic pulmonary issues to flu-like symptoms that go away in a week.
>Imagine getting the measles vaccine and then getting measles every damn yearSimilarly theres a reason why there are no common cold/influenza immunization shots, why you have to take a vaccination each flu season in order to gain the immunity for it and why you still catch it despite taking the vaccinations so frequently. New pathogens are mutated and created infinitely and there is no singular antibiotic that can fight off against all pathogens. If it was a immunization and you still caught the virus thats when you should start being concerned regarding the authenticity of your injections (e.g. Hepatitis B, Measles as per your example)
No. 2465894
>>2465836My statement was incorrect, COVID symptoms generally aren't as severe as what I listed, what made it very dangerous in the first place was that its highly infectious via airborne particles/droplets which caused it to spread widely in a short amount of time. It should be noted that if your body is under attack by COVID, it leaves you vulnerable to other diseases, so in the beginning stages of the pandemic when people did not know the symptoms or treatment for COVID, hospitals quickly reached max capacity. Airborne transmissions thrive in crowded environments which makes it the perfect breeding ground to infect or worsen the conditions of a patient who is already suffering from COVID. (Hospitals are one of the most highly infectious areas to be around, there is a specific category of disease exclusive to hospital transmitted disease i.e nosocomial infections)
You mentioned that you are on top of your immunizations and flu vaccinations which means your immune system isn't as vulnerable and can fend itself against COVID well enough, but this is not the case for individuals who are immuno-compromised, very young/very old, injured.etc
COVID symptoms are primarily based on a person's underlying health and their immune system;
for example, my mother experienced deliberating symptoms of COVID due to chronic issues such as diabetes and hypertension that worsened her disease, in comparison I myself only experienced flu symptoms and temporary loss of taste (this was pre-vaccination and we are both essential workers).
So yes, if you feel your immune system is strong enough to take care of COVID feel free to not take it, the world's your oyster. Just take consideration that if you were to suddenly become injured, gain chronic illness, or simply get old, your immune system will be more susceptible to worsened symptoms and will not be prepared with the required antibodies to fend off the disease quickly. Also be aware that
your children may not have an immune system as mature enough as yours and could experience worsened symptoms of covid were they to catch it along with other pathogens that could worsen their health such as influenza.
No. 2465973
>>2465894Samefag, heres another simplification on how vaccination could have an effect on the spread and symptoms of covid:
>be unvaccinated and catch COVID>body does not have antibodies to fend off pathogen so it takes longer to eliminate the disease>your body currently carries the COVID pathogens as the immune system is still fending it off>you spread the pathogens via airborne particles and secretions, potentially infecting a host that comes into contact with the disease>disease infects another unvaccinated person >cycle repeats and more people are infectedAnother fact I should correct is that COVID symptoms are milder for infants and young children, HOWEVER, if the child is infected with COVID they could be susceptible to more dangerous diseases such as RSV, pertussis, hiB that the child is too young to receive immunizations for so you would need to get rid of the COVID symptoms as soon as possible.
No. 2466052
>>2466023Don't be obtuse, what I said is a simplified definition on why COVID/Influenza is a reoccurring illness despite the repetitive vaccinations. I certainly could've worded it better by saying that vaccinations can lead to immunization however not all vaccinations can grant complete immunity to all pathogens.
I've never encountered a rabies case nor have expertise in it since contracting it is virtually nonexistent outside of contact with an infected animal (which vets are more susceptible to receiving) but as far as I know rabies is easy to prevent, harder and virtually impossible to cure.
The vaccination can fight against the rabies virus establishing itself in the central nervous system but it does not guarantee complete immunity should you not be on top of your boosters. Rabies is especially important to consider because it can remain doormant for years before symptoms show up and later become fatal.
Also not every stray animal is a potential host to rabies? So even if you were bitten by a stray that does not guarantee you foaming in the mouth and dying?
Thats like saying getting sneezed in the face will 100% guarantee a flu because thats how influenza is spread. Your chances are increased yes but its not guaranteed.
No one is dying from COVID, but it certainly will worsen the symptoms of other chronic diseases that will lead to their death.

>>2465894The milder symptoms may or may not be the work of the vaccine. Remember that at around the time the vaccines were rolling out, the virus had already mutated naturally into a milder version of itself which resembled the flu. There were early studies which showed a worsened immunity after two shots of the vaccine, not to mention that the manifacturers withheld important information on the known side effects for a lot of time, I can't blame people for thinking that the covid vaccines were shady dangerous things, especially because the majority of the population didn't have a choice not to take it (remember when governments forced you to take it and took away your right to work, study and buy things if you didn't?).
Plus you talk about spreading the disease, but remember that the manufacturers for the vaccines actually said that they were never tested to stop the spread and most likely didn't (another thing we were gaslighted about).
>>2466009If hospitals and health care workers actually did their fucking jobs (and if the governments let them) we would have had half of the issues that came up with covid. Many deaths were due to neglect, wrong treatment and refusal to give medications even when available. Most politicians are old ass fuckers with at least 2 illnesses, but I wonder why none of them died from covid when they caught it.
No. 2469832
>>2465894Everything you said in this comment is pretty much false, anon. COVID was never 'very dangerous' in the first place. You keep talking like it is but it just wasn't, even mainstream science is now admitting that with great frequency. A mild cold (which it always was) spreading frequently in a short time is how every seasonal ILI works and no one ever talks about other similar colds as 'very dangerous' even though they can kill old people.
>people did not know the symptoms or treatment for COVIDYes they did, from the very start COVID symptoms were just 'regular cold/flu symptoms' and there have been no changes to that at any intervening point. That's still the official symptoms of COVID, is 'a cold.' Hospitals reached 'max capacity' because they let fewer people in, not because there were more sick people.
>You mentioned that you are on top of your immunizations and flu vaccinations which means your immune system isn't as vulnerable There's no evidence for this and has never been any evidence for this and that's really not how the immune system works.
>but this is not the case for individuals who are immuno-compromisedDo you even know what that word means?
>very youngPeople who are very young were never at any risk from COVID at all, they are literally the safest group that handles minor colds the best out of all demographics.
>for example, my mother experienced deliberating symptoms of COVID due to chronic issues such as diabetes and hypertensionNo shit, older people with diabetes and hypertension don't handle colds as well as young and healthy people.
>if you feel your immune system is strong enough to take care of COVID feel free to not take itNo one would have cared enough to be arguing about it 4 years later if people were 'free to not take it' in the first place. It's hilarious reading these posts acting like they were born yesterday or lived in a cave in serbia since 2018. Almost every human being in the world was pressured and coerced to take the vaccine, nonna, that's why people are still upset about it.
>>2465973This entire explanation is incredibly scientifically illiterate and I think you should spend some more time researching if you're as interested in this topic as you seem to be. A good starting point is to ask yourself which antibodies, in which tissues, would help 'fend off' the COVID pathogen versus which antibodies, in which tissues, the vaccine creates, and for how long, and their pharmacokinetics generally.
It's also incredibly dishonest to type up borderline glowie-posts like this 4 years after everyone was forced to take the vaccine because most of us here are not 5yos and are old enough to remember the definition of vaccine that was on the WHO website and the things that the vax creators and vax shills themselves were saying at that time. They claimed the vaccine was necessary because it would completely halt transmission, and that vaccinated people could not get or transmit COVID. Now we're all just supposed to settle for this juvenile retcon of 'no, we all knew that vaccines didn't work that way!!' Embarrassing that a person who claims to work in the healthcare system is shilling this medically uneducated garbage when you had years to look up some actual information. Then making repeated samefagging posts 5 minutes later trying to correct the multiple errors you noticed you made right afterwards, probably because you never bothered to look up basic facts until after shillposting.
>>2466009>tuberculinWhere do you live, Venezuela? They don't even give the TBG vaccine in first world countries.

It's always the least educated people with the least apparent background in 'modern medicine' who accuse others of being 'anti science' and 'anti modernity' but won't pick up their modern computer and use their modern wifi connection to access some modern pubmed articles (or even older ones!) which can be read for free on the modern internet.
>>2468271>the virus had already mutated naturally into a milder version of itself which resembled the flu.It always resembled the flu from the very beginning. It IS, currently, in essence, the flu. It always was. The tests couldn't even accurately tell you if you had COVID or some other virus or nothing. All anyone who 'got COVID' knew for a fact was that they had a flu, during a time when people were saying 'COVID is going around,' but it could have been any other ILI as well. As you say, the immune response has been shown (both observationally and mechanistically) to be worsened by the vaccine and this information was at least partially available before they even rolled it out. The whole thing was such a transparent psyop.

Is it really better to erode people's confidence in their health authorities and vaccines in general, even unto the point of changing the definition of vaccine? It just strikes me as so silly whenever I'm confronted with it. If someone heard "vaccines don't confer immunity" wouldn't they be more likely to get no vaccines rather than get the shitty covid one? "The covid one is shitty and doesn't prevent you from catching it, so only take it if you need it" would be so much better messaging rather than this.

>>2471524With astral projection? I started when I was in highschool but I started with lucid dreaming (I didn't beive in astral projection at all then) and was doing it for about half of a year and then astral projection just happened to me two nights in a row so I didn't really have a strategy to learn it. I think though lucid dreaming is a good start with your mind abilities, I think it turns on a switch in your brain do be able to do more things.
When I was already doing astral projection regulary what helped me to induce it was: 1.Think about doing it a lot during the day 2. Talk about the experiences with my friend 3. Wake up in the middle of the night and go to the toilet (I don't know why but my body needs to walk a little bit before the projection, doesn't work if i just wake up and go back to sleep) Then lie on your back, no libs crossed, and just be like this and don't move. Then you could start to hear your own brainwaves (happens somtimes, sometimes not, but it's a good sign) Then you'll feel vibrations in your legs slowly going to your brain and when the vibrations reach your brain they stop and you need to get up. It's difficult to get up because you're tired but when you do you got up from your body and you're there. People usually panic at this point and it's over but if you learn to not panic it's a lot of fun.

>>2471996No shade nonna I've been to Greece twice and was just there 2 summers ago and it is legitimately my fav place in the world in terms of food, nature, very friendly people etc. but I'd say it's closer to a mid-income country propped up by the wealth of Europe generally and when it comes to health care may be straggling a little compared to other wealthier countries. When I looked up TB cases in Greece I found picrel suggesting that a majority of Greek TB cases (there are not many) are migrant-related. There are many Western countries without regular TB vaccination which have similarly low case rates, not because the vaccines were so effective in the past or whatever but simply speaking because TB is a poverty disease that hardly affects anyone with access to clean water, good nutrition, etc. Like in Canada for example no one in the entire country regularly gets TB vaccines except for remote northern Inuit populations, who have an ongoing TB crisis but also barely have access to food or reasonable healthcare. I personally knew two people who worked with tuberculosis populations in Nunavut and neither of them were expected to get the TB vaccine themselves, because it was generally understood that as healthy people they wouldn't get it just from hanging out with TB positive populations for 3-4 months. Also TB can be treated with conventional antibiotics fairly easily until it's far-gone, so it's really an issue for communities without healthcare access mainly.
>Is it really so hard to go, "Yes, we over-reacted and in retrospect, we didn't need to do what we did to people and ruin their livelihoods over a mild cold."Yeah it is hard for people because they put everything on the line for the narrative. The people who were hardcore vaccine shills for years and years alienated their friends and family members and told them they hope they'll die, it's not easy to come back from that. They gloated over myocarditis deaths claiming they only happened in the UNvaccinated, it's hard to come back from that and admit the vaccines were causing the myocarditis. It's just generally much harder to admit you're wrong after you've burned so many bridges and staked your entire reputation and sense of 'I'm a good person!' on a belief.
>Is it really better to erode people's confidence in their health authorities and vaccines in general, even unto the point of changing the definition of vaccine?The problem is that the whole fiasco didn't seem to erode the average person's confidence that much. And for the people whose confidence was eroded, they had the convenient 'evil murderous antivaxxer getting everyone killed' narrative at the ready. That narrative actually made me (a biomedsci person who previously was super pro-vax) to look into past arguments for vaccines and I actually realized that there was not a lot of good evidence for prior vaccines either, but since they weren't as clearly harmful/dangerous as the COVID vax, it was very convenient to work up a narrative about the evil vax doubters as murderous psychopathic hippie homeschooler women who put everyone's kids at risk. People were already primed to think that antivaxer = bad, anti-science, etc. so the extent to which the average NPC's faith in the medical establishment was eroded by COVID seems very small. In fact, I've noticed a lot of people to this day in 2025 claiming that COVID was an example of why we need to completely trust big pharma and the biomedical establishment, and use it to promote and shill stuff like WPATH troon care and other dubious 'healthcare' as well. I've never seen other scientists like myself so smug and narcissistic as I have over the past few years because of how COVID inflated the public's idea of their importance.
>"The covid one is shitty and doesn't prevent you from catching it, so only take it if you need it" would be so much better messaging rather than this.I would think that would be the case if your average person was rational, but sadly I no longer believe your average person is. People are completely stuck in their social media bubbles and don't want to think critically since it's hard. They will just accept whatever they're told.

>>2472061Yeah it completely changed the entire way I look at the world. I used to look at those moids who went on about how 'most people are NPCs' and think that they were just autistic retards lacking theory of mind/empathy (and I still do to some extent) but I get why they said that now. After 2020 it was really hard to look at the regular normies around me in the world the same way anymore and I really do operate on the assumption now that most people are essentially NPCs for all intents and purposes. Like not in the sense that I don't think they have brains and cognition but in the sense that I don't think they really use their brains for much of anything approaching critical thinking or reasoning or really ask themselves any important questions about the world. If Man On The News says 'do X' they do X. If Man On The News says a week later 'doing X makes you a Nazi' they screech that they won't be friends with anyone who has done X ever again.
My parents and grandparents lived through one or several autocratic regimes (grandparents all lived through the holocaust essentially as well as invasions by the red army, etc) and they all said that COVID felt pretty much like the same thing even if it was less explicitly violent. In fact many of my relatives said it felt worse because of the way that everyone just quietly accepted it and didn't fight back. I lost so many friends and several of my friends openly admitted that they think vax passports are similar to Jim Crow segregation but 'it's okay because the government means well.'
The most heartbreaking thing was honestly seeing all these really accomplished near-retirement scientists (some with Nobel prizes) breaking down and crying over the way they were being mistreated just for bringing up basic scientific facts. Prior to COVID I was pretty convinced I wanted to stay in academia and try to become a science professor but it completely shattered my faith in the academic establishment. Random busker hippie couchsurfers I knew were making more logical sense than people with PhDs and if you actually had a science PhD and tried to give people any facts or evidence they would just go 'no, not you, the experts who have the same opinion as me.' I honestly started to obsessively read those articles about how some people don't have internal monologues and shit to try to grasp how it was possible for people to act so empty-headed but I still to this day can't really grasp what happened to people or how it is possible for them to be like that. It felt like I was getting an object lesson in 'how pretty much everyone in Germany became a Nazi overnight' because I used to think that was weird and hard to explain and now I don't anymore.
Sorry for the long rant but at this point the weirdest thing to me is that after COVID became less of a 'thing' and society went back to (relatively) normal, there's been a huge influx of science papers proving basically everything COVID skeptics and vax skeptics were saying, but everyone just ignores them. All the 'Trust The Science (TM)!!' retards have gone back to never reading or mentioning a single scientific abstract as hundreds of papers come out proving the whole thing was a total scam. There's still some level of suppression of science papers on the topic but it's far less aggressive than it was 2-3 years ago but it literally doesn't matter because no one gives a shit anymore as if the whole thing never happened at all; if you bring it up to normies they will act like it's some passe and dead topic no one should care about anymore even though it completely restructured society and fucked up the careers, education and developmental processes of billions of people.

>>2472085Idk nonna I don't get paranormal experiences or anything like that but I can relate to the feeling that things are unraveling (also as a lifelong atheist) and I understand why some people feel drawn to spirituality now. I can't really speak to what to do about spiritual stuff because I still don't but my attitude is to try to focus on the things that make life worthwhile (whether you feel it's a spiritual thing or not). Connecting with nature, creating things (art, even gardening, whatever), nurturing and helping other people, fostering a sense of community, just doing the things that feel important to you even if they aren't associated with typical 'success' metrics.
A lot of people have thought 'it's all unraveling' or 'the world is ending' at many points in history but then nothing like that happened, so I don't want to put too much stake in the subjective perception I have that things are falling apart because I think in civilization, things often fall apart cyclically. However I think for me or you as an individual, the way to not get dragged down by it is to live a life that is full and that includes not being afraid (of things like social censure, losing money/opportunities for speaking out or taking risks), devoting yourself to improving things concretely for people around you or the environment around you (I don't mean going to environmentalism protests, but like working the land, cleaning up when you see trash in nature, etc) and just trying to build a community in person with like-minded people.
>>2472089Lol yeah where I live a bunch of people continue to wear masks to walk around outside, it's bizarre. During COVID I would go on hikes and people with masks would pass me on the hike and like literally jump into the forest when they saw us coming and like scramble to run 20feet up some forest slope. I also saw people swimming in mountain lakes with masks on.

>>2472013Wow interesting, I guess it makes sense that lucid dreaming would make it easier since it's an out of body experience in a way too. I've honestly never been that interested in lucid dreaming as it just seems like daydreaming with extra steps to me, but it's happened to me a few times so it's good to know that it could help. Astral projection is like an art of discovering the secrets of the universe and that has always appealed to me. I guess I will start a dream diary then!
Also this might be a long shot, but do you nonas think that this falling feeling that sometimes happens right before sleeping might be related to astral projection? I know it's supposed to be a reflex that kept our ancestors in the trees, but I've never really been satisfied with that explanation. When it happens to me or my nigel, the flinching is usually really visceral, so I doubt it would help sleep in trees, it seems more like it would lead to falling in the first place.

>>2472079I had such a similar experience to you, anon. The mistreatment really, really sticks with me. Where I live things were infamously totalitarian, you needed to show proof of vaccination+booster even to enter the grocery store. I'm glad we don't have to do that anymore, but I always just wonder, did everyone just forget that shit? We just live our lives like nothing happened for the most part, but I remember how instantly people toed the line and how aggressive they were if you were even a little hesitant, and most importantly I remember how this aggression had institutional backing. I'm still baffled at how some of my very bright, very kind friends immediately turned into broken records who would just repeat the mantras of that time and refuse to even consider that the government response may have been a little odd, let alone that the vaccine was being actively lied about.
I also remember seeing people swimming with masks on as recently as 2022. Here even surf beaches and hiking trails were closed by government decree. We had those bizarre proto-15-minute-city distance/time restrictions too which were fucking insane.

Some of the normie women who were beastly to me during covid are more contrite now. I mean, trust them less now that I know they're susceptible to brainwashing and will turn on me at any time. But hey, they can retroactively admit it was a silly situation. So not all hope is lost, right? So now with the new narrative of avian flu they'll be innoculated against media driven over-reaction… right? Am I too optimistic or what?

No. 2472130
>>2472114Yeah I also lived in one of the places with the worst (and longest-lasting) restrictions in the world. Like curfews for literal years, couldn't go to any leisure activity or restaurant or bar, you couldn't enter certain big box stores without a vaxpass or if you could, you could only buy certain things there and not others (really weird), you couldn't buy alcohol, you couldn't get healthcare in some cases, etc. They never banned us from going to food-only grocery stores but there were restrictions on stores like Walmart that had other stuff that wasn't food. It only stopped around 2023 iirc, long after most places had gone back to being more sane.
>but I always just wonder, did everyone just forget that shit? I also think this all the time. I'll have people who called me a nazi fascist murderer trying to ingratiate themselves with me again as if nothing happened even though they were publicly wishing for my (personal) death a couple years ago.
>my very bright, very kind friends immediately turned into broken records who would just repeat the mantras of that time and refuse to even consider that the government response may have been a little odd, let alone that the vaccine was being actively lied about.Maybe they actually weren't very bright or very kind. I don't think of any of those people as bright or kind anymore. I think a lot of people manage to seem bright, kind, and normal when they aren't called upon to do any critical thinking or show any empathy for people who aren't exactly like themselves, but it's a smokescreen. Notably almost all my close friends, who actually cared about me, acted normal during COVID even if they initially disagreed with me - they would hear me out, have a conversation; most ended up agreeing with me after a few months. I think it's easy for people to seem 'smart' because they went to college and learned the Big College Words and it's easy for people to seem nice when there isn't any reason for them not to be, but the illusion is shattered when they're called upon to actually display intelligence or kindness under non-ideal conditions.
>>2472116In what way are they contrite? Like did they actually look into it and reason their way through the situation and sincerely apologize or are they just trying to paper things over?
>>2472118Do you have evidence of this 'widespread' constant mask wearing in 'Asian countries' during every past flu season? I live in a place with a huge number of East Asian immigrants and most of my friends who were recent Asian immigrants thought the masking shit was ultra ridiculous and insisted it was never normal back home. If you look at videos of places like Japan and China pre-2020 you can see from the surveillance video that not many people are wearing masks, you can also look at popular media and see that it wasn't normalized in media. And I also believe the dozens of Asian immigrants I personally know that they never saw such a thing irl.
>thin layer of paper cloth is the same as the Islamic niqab No it's actually worse in some ways because the 'paper' aka fiberglass pasted to your face is far more dangerous than wearing loose cotton over your face. The small particles get lodged in your mucous membranes, throat and lungs, bacteria and fungi grow on them and are re-breathed, etc. But it's curious that the only thing you can think of to compare masks to is a cultural practice that exists to oppress and de-person women. It's almost like depersoning wearers is the whole point.

>>2472079I remember a friend sharing a study on sperm count and motility after the covid jab using sperm donors who donated before and after they got it. The conclusion said that there was no significant change, but the actual t values of the samples shortly after, intermediately after, and after a greater period of time were still not even close to 0 compared to the before sample… Some of the T3's were even worse than the earlier samples. So the conclusion isn't supported by the data. They even admitted so in the discussion but decided the need to push the jab was worth lying about it. Even shown the tables and picrel she was just like "I don't understand the numbers, but the conclusion says blah blah blah." You can't tell if -14% change as compared to 0 from the pre-jab sample is better or worse? What if you had $0 and you check your bank later to find it has -14% of change happening in there. What can you determine about your bank balance from this? If your latest sample is -15.9%, would you consider that further away or closer to the number zero? Gosh I dunno, let's just have the smart science men tell us everything. Science and curiosity are completely fucking dead.

>the west (by which I mean america) IDK why you keep mentioning America specifically when it's obvious most nonnas in this thread aren't even American but no, people all over the world struggled to wear masks because it's unnatural and unhealthy and damaging to the human organism to cover your face in fiberglass all day and rebreathe your own carbon dioxide. Also masks didn't 'prevent' anything and the scientists shilling masks knew that to begin with.
>>2472147There were like literal thousands of studies that did this same thing nonna. Studying something, finding that the vaccine actually was harmful or causing side effects or that X 'prevention measure' didn't work or whatever but then the conclusion would just be like 'well this isn't concerning enough to stop forcing everyone to do the dangerous thing though so!' Meanwhile when SSRIs have 14% efficacy above placebo doctors prescribe them to everyone and their dog.
>>2472155Personally, same as you, I stopped trying to converse with and entertain the NPCs. I used to be an extremely extroverted social butterfly, make small talk with basically every stranger I encountered outside, etc. but COVID led to me being a lot more selective with who I waste time on. I'm still extroverted and nice to strangers in public but I don't view your average person as a potential friend anymore and I try to save my energy for people who really matter to me. You're right that trying to convince retards of anything is basically a waste of time, it served me well during COVID because 'onlookers' would read/hear the arguments and be convinced but it's mostly not worth it to get upset about NPCs acting like NPCs.
>>2472159Again do you have actual evidence that regular mask-wearing by large numbers of people was ever actually 'widespread' in Japan?

>anti-vaxx/covid denier/flat earther type of postersLmao at talking to actual scientists and educated people posting academic papers and transparently trying to write them off as 'flat earther type of posters.'

>Masks started to be used in Japan in the 1870s, about 150 years ago. At the time, people working at coal mines and factories wore the masks to protect themselves from dust. It is said that black masks were the most popular as dirt does not stand out with this color.
>In general, masks are often used for preventing epidemics. In Japan, people wear masks in many cases to avoid passing on germs to other people if they catch a cold or an infectious disease. On the other hand, a large number of people in Japan put on masks in public places even if they are not feeling unwell. One reason for this is hay fever, a condition present in about 30% of Japanese people.Hay fever refers to the sneezing, runny nose, and other symptoms that people feel due to an allergic reaction that happens when pollen enters the body from Japanese cedars, Japanese cypresses, or other trees. There is a large amount of pollen in the air during the spring and fall in particular, and many Japanese people suffer symptoms such as sneezing and runny nose during these seasons. Wearing a mask helps to ease these symptoms, so Japanese people suffering from hay fever have a custom to wear masks at school or work as well as when going outside.

I think the real driver for the covid situation and brainwashing was to divide families and make people trust each other less. I mean, just look at how divisive this topic still is, you know? You cannot have a civil discussion about it and the shills just repeat the same lines over and over with 0 thought. I'll accept papering it over if it means I can still be in my family's life and keep lifelong friends.

but anyway even setting aside if it's common in Japan or not (I'll accept that use of masks isn't unusual in the country, ntayrt) that has no bearing on whether they're effective specifically for covid or anything at all.

I don't think anyone is denying that some Japanese people wore masks sometimes for various reasons.
>people working at coal mines and factories wore the masks to protect themselves from dust>due to an allergic reaction that happens when pollen enters the bodySo two types of particles dramatically larger than viral particles which masks actually have some chance of stopping or minimizing.

>>2472255>Despair is the first psyop.It really is. One of the things the whole COVID debacle taught me was that I can't just sit around waiting for society to get better to have the kind of life that I want. There are lots of terrible and disturbing things about our modern society and there are reasons to worry about a collapse but there are also tons of amazing opportunities modern society grants us that many of our forebears didn't have, like access to almost infinite information for free via the internet, access to almost infinite people for free via the internet, fairly widespread women's rights especially the right to work and control our own finances, increased geographical mobility, generally abundant (if low quality) food and clean(ish) water, low incidence (ironically considering the current topic) of deadly disease, etc. So I see no point in despairing and overfocusing on the bad aspects of modern society or doomerism, even though it's good to stay wary and keep up to date. We have a lot of control over our fate compared to women even 100-200 years ago and we should take that opportunity and live well.
>brainwashing was to divide families and make people trust each other lessThis is a typical goal of all authoritarian regimes. I think you're right that when it comes to your own family it can be worth it to accept papering things over, but I also think that with voluntary associations like friends/acquaintances I'd be less likely to do that. I have been carefully curating the friends I put time and energy into now after seeing 5 years ago that many people I considered 'friends' would literally throw me under a moving bus or sell me out to the stasi if they had the chance. I don't want/need people like that in my life anymore and my life has been a lot better after removing them. The thing is as much as 'the government was trying to divide us' is true, it's also true that the people who turned against you had a choice not to do that and they did it anyway. I wouldn't want to be locked in a bunker with that kind of person when the next Bad Thing happens. At the end of the day it was their choice and I had plenty of people in my life who didn't throw me under the bus or wish for my death, so I'll be sticking with those people from now on.
>that has no bearing on whether they're effective specifically for covid or anything at allIn fact if mask wearing for flu season had been extremely widespread in Japan/China/SK prior to 2020 it would actually be further evidence that they're ineffective (not like we don't already have enough evidence), because it's not like those countries had dramatically fewer ILI cases than other high-pop nations.

>Although the general public reacted negatively to this compulsory mask-wearing, San Francisco, for example, achieved a sharp decline of new flu cases after the enforcement of its Mask Order. This case became known as a successful battle against Spanish influenza. Barry (2005: 375), however, argues: “The city had simply been lucky.” Nonetheless, in contrast to “the paralysing fear found in too many other communities,” people in San Francisco “felt a sense of control:” “They thought that they had controlled it, that they had stopped it” (Barry 2005: 375). Although these masks might have been in fact useless against the influenza virus itself, they gave people a sense of control over the pandemic.
>The Japanese post-Spanish influenza pandemic report Ryūkōsei Kanbō (Naimushō Eiseikyoku 2008 [1922]) tells that Japanese health authorities had learnt by autumn 1918 how Western nations had responded to the pandemic, including mask-wearing in San Francisco and other cities. In February 1919, according to the report, the National Public Health Bureau instructed local authorities to encourage people to wears masks in places where flu patients were admitted and other places with a high risk of infection. This was followed by more detailed guidelines, which added mask-wearing in crowds, on trains, and on trams. Notably, mask-wearing was recommended to healthy people, but not to flu patients. Meanwhile, those who were coughing and sneezing were told to cover their noses and mouths with handkerchiefs or tenugui (literally, hand clothes), but not by masks. In October 1919, local authorities were instructed to provide free masks to those who could not afford them. Theatres, cinemas, and buses were added to the list of the places where masks should be worn.
>In contrast to the American “Mask Order,” mask-wearing in Japan was well received by the public. The post-pandemic report Ryūkōsei Kanbō (Naimushō Eiseikyoku 2008 [1922]) indicates high level of mask-wearing in Japan. In Fukui Prefecture in 1920, for example, it was estimated, according to information obtained from 14 police stations, that some 80 per cent of all households were using masksetc. etc. But my point is not to argue effectiveness at slowing the spread of flu germs alongside other preventative measures, but to prove that Japanese have been wearing them for various reasons for ages before CoVid. I've known about it myself since the early 2010s, I can even ask my partner and inlaws about it, but i'd rather not devolve into "trust me bro, so-and-such person from (whatever demographic) said (x thing) which proves my point" since that wouldn't be very helpful or convincing.

>>2472306There is plenty of real science showing that masks are not effective for stopping flu anon, we don't have to rely on anecdata like
>San Francisco, for example, achieved a sharp decline of new flu cases after the enforcement…since flu and other viruses decline naturally after they peak. You can find plenty of articles from the time both arguing the masks didn't (and couldn't possibly, physically) do shit (which remains true and known by fluid physicists and OSHA people today) and talking about how unpopular the mask mandate was in San Francisco at the time. It is interesting that the article mentions a 'sense of control' though since this was often cited by public health authorities pushing mask-wearing in 2020 as a good reason to implement masks. Like some anons said above, the mask mandates were about a 'sense of control' rather than about stopping COVID transmission, which they already knew wouldn't work. If you're interested you can let me know and I can dig up some sources about this but if not I won't bother. There's another quote about this later in the article:
>‘Risk ritual’ also constructs the same double meaning. The term indicates apparent ‘irrationality’ of risk discourse in the clinical context in which a probabilistic talk would not increasing the chance of avoiding illness (Crawford 2004), and various apparent risk avoidance behaviours, which do not reduce actual risks they are associated (Moore and Burgess 2011). At the same time, ‘risk ritual’ articulates the behavioural adaptation to “a pervasive sense of uncertainty” and “a collective sense of disempowerment” (Moore and Burgess 2011: 119), in which “[o]ne must acts as if one is in control” (Crawford 2004: 523).
>post-pandemic report Ryūkōsei Kanbō (Naimushō Eiseikyoku 2008 [1922]) indicates high level of mask-wearing in Japan. In Fukui Prefecture in 1920, for example, it was estimated, according to information obtained from 14 police stations, that some 80 per cent of all households were using masksThis was during the 1918 influenza specifically, not generally in the last 100 years. Your article does suggest that
>between 22.8 per cent (Interwired 2009) and 48.7 per cent (Hakugen 2010) of respondents wore masks as a protection against influenzabut does not actually suggest that mask-wearing (for everyone) was widespread throughout flu season. It specifically says that
>Another survey published in 2009 showed that about three out of four respondents were willing to wear masks when suffering from a cough (what the article doesn't mention was that this study was conducted by a mask manufacturer, Unicharm). >The term “cough manner,” which was mentioned earlier, had originally appeared as “cough etiquette” (seki echiketto) in PIEAC’s minutes in 2006, as well as in the Japanese version of the government’s influenza guidelines. In the popular media discourse, when the term appeared in March 2007, it did not initially mean wearing masks, but covering your nose and mouth with tissue paper or handkerchiefs, when coughing or sneezing. Masks, however, became included in the term in October 2007. Thereafter, “cough etiquette” became almost equal to mask-wearing by those coughing and sneezing. so not like during COVID where throughout the entire 'COVID season' everyone was wearing masks whether sick or not, the article only states that people 'were willing to wear them' when they themselves actively were sick, which goes back to the politeness point me and other nonnas made. This tracks with what I myself have heard from Japanese immigrant friends who said that people who were actively sick or had allergies would wear masks on the train etc. or at work but that it was at most 1/10 or 1/20 people at any given time, not a majority of society every flu season. And Japan is actually fairly unique in this; my Chinese and Korean friends said it was far less common for sick people than in Japan. I also followed the links for the 2 cited surveys claiming high prevalence of mask wearing and both led to 404 not found pages, so I'm guessing these were small news surveys at best (one was by a mask manufacturer on their product website); I can't even confirm that the cited surveys ever existed.
Another quote from the article suggests that even in situations where everyone was encouraged to wear masks, many people refused and they wore masks selectively:
>Masks were distributed at the shelters and everyone was encouraged to wear one, but while some women would wear one while preparing rice balls, others would not. The same women also would not always wear a mask when they were cooking. The priest told me to wear a mask when I went out to walk around town because of the dust, though he himself never wore one.>The lack of clearly targeting and systematic usage suggests that the mask-wearing is practiced in an individualistic manner, not necessarily constructing a rigid collective norm around the practice, while it is “socially embedded as a general protective practice” (Burgess and Horii 2012: 1184)At another point, the article states that mask-wearing re-emerged in the 80s due to the high number of people wearing them for hay fever, and, interestingly, this correlated to antivax sentiment:
>In the 1980s, when the hay fever mask became common in Japanese society, flu masks gradually reappeared. This comeback was triggered by the heightened anxieties over flu vaccination. Under the banner of “social protection,” the public health authority tried to control influenza by preventing its spread in schools at first. “However, in the late 1980s, questions about this policy and vaccine’s efficacy arose, and a campaign against vaccination began” >The decline of flu vaccinations directed people to masks again, in the hope of protection against influenza. This is neither here nor there but I find this line from the intro of your article very interesting:
>Furthermore, in the 2000s, the discourse around the practice of mask-wearing has been loaded by neoliberal ideology, which increasingly transfers responsibilities for managing health risks from the state to individuals. Mask-wearing has increasingly become its embodiment. >In this context, mask-wearing has become “a disciplinary device in neoliberal politics” (Manzenreiter 2012: 81), which emphasises the responsibility of the individual for one’s health.Presented without comment.

>>2472362kek this is because flu was replaced by COVID. Flu virions are a similar size to COVID virions so if masks were responsible for this there wouldn't have been COVID either. That's also anecdata btw, again I offered to show you real science if you're interested.

Can we get a Covid/pandemic/mask skepticism thread? cause this is specifically so fucking boring. I fucking hate this dumbass back and forth. And idk if it should even count as tinfoil since both sides have scientific studies and that’s what’s being discussed moreso than any tinfoil aspects to the pandemic. Grrrr stop being so boring there’s so much stuff to tinfoil about that ISNT COVID AND MASKS AND VACCINES

>>2472392You can just make a comment about what you want to talk about, anon. Personally I don't think alchemy, lucid dreaming or archons really count as 'tinfoils' as I understand them and lots of people think COVID vax shit is a 'conspiracy theory' (most of the shit people call conspiracy theories has actual evidence behind it) but the thread was dominated by archons, spirituality and gods discussions for weeks. Let people talk about the tinfoils they want to talk about and post about the ones you want to talk about. Anons could just as easily ask for a 'spirituality and gnosticism' thread but it all gets posted here. Actually if we can't talk about the conspiracy where almost all the world's economies were effectively shut down and subjected to authoritarianism by almost every single world government (almost like it was a… one world government decree) and some 6-7 billion people were coerced into getting a novel gene therapy injected into them, idk what even the point would be of pretending this is a thread about conspiracies. The biggest, most widespread and significant conspiracy in a century just happened and it's 'too boring'?
>>2472395Yeah the one person wearing a mask isn't indicative of some society-wide norm that everyone was participating in. I hate to tell you that's not what 'a majority or large minority' means. No one at any point in the thread denied that occasionally a singular Asian person would wear a mask pre-2020.

>>2472435There's been a wide mix of topics on this thread anon, the COVID thing just came up last weeks after months of people talking about other things. 'It gets heated' seems like a weird excuse not to talk about a conspiracy in the conspiracy thread. I wouldn't mind if there were more specific threads for specific things but there used to be a COVID thread where discussion of vaccines and similar was banned and people were directed to this thread instead so farmhands clearly prefer for the discussion to happen here. People will argue 'it doesn't belong in the thread' no matter what people discuss in this thread because it seems like such a wide range of topics is discussed here from like random philosophical gnosticism talk to glowy stuff to COVID to sexism. But I guess people with an issue should post in /meta/ since the thread OP just says
>Do you have somewhat schizophrenic beliefs that worry your friends and family? Tired of getting red-texted for "tinfoiling" about recent events around the globe? If so, you've come to the right place.>Discussions surrounding government cover-ups, entertainment industry secrets, odd predictions, political intrigues, etc., are all welcome here.Personally I think the COVID shit is a proven conspiracy and less 'conspiracy theorish' than half the stuff talked about in random /ot/ country and politics threads, not a 'conspiracy theory' at all but I'm sure a lot of people in other threads would disagree with me, so…

>>2473385My phone always upgrades to whatever type of phone I have currently for the most part, so I’ve dreamed of using my phone since I had a moto rzr flip phone kek. Nowadays I often dream I’m locked out of my phone or it just isn’t fucking working when I try to use it, like it’s got insane lag. Don’t have that issue when using a desktop pc in my dreams though, which, desktops and consoles and TVs have figured prominently in my dreams and since childhood since we’ve always had such things.
The scariest thing to experience in dreams are smells imo. Doesn’t anyone else have smells feature in their dreams? Even if it’s a good smell and a good dream, it’s always offputting. And yet I still can’t fucking lucid dream. My dreams basically non linear improvised narratives that I have seemingly no conscious control over. My friend has fantastical dreams as well and the only times she’s been able to sort of lucid dream, she was like “oh hey I’m dreaming!” - all the characters in her dream world turn evil and start screaming SHUT IT DOWN! SHUT IT DOWN! until she wakes up. She’s also read stuff in her dreams.
>>2473184I don’t have episodes like that but I have very realistic dreams to the point I often confuse things that happen in my dreams to things that have really happened. Sometimes it’s goofy though. Like when I dreamed I saw a Taco Bell commercial announcing that the Quesalupa was back. I told my friend that day that I’d seen an ad about the quesalupa being back and got a call later and he was like “did you really see a commercial about the quesalupa? Cause I just got done at the third Taco Bell and none of them have it” and I was like oh shit maybe I dreamed it. And I had. They did eventually bring the quesalupa back but it wasn’t until a couple years after my dream about it being back.

I think a lot of alternative bands in the 90s were set up in the same way boy bands are and didn't actually write any of their own music. Whoever did probably died in 1998 or 1999. The only thing more difficult than returning to the moon seems to be creating a song that is "good" (or even worth listening to) for most of these "artists". Every year I work at my art (that I create myself) I get better, not worse

>he took advantage of the high trust and low expectations women temporarily had in moids when it comes to their devices and pw privacy, until they do something like this. I probably can't find it anymore because I read the article years ago, but there was an article about the ethics of an app some company had developed for men to install in their wife's phone. Basically it was some kind of virus link that the moid would text his "wife" (or whoever) disguised as an innocuous meme, would secretly install on the phone and then would run psyops on the wife to try to get her to want more sex through various 'behavioral nudge' strategies. It doesn't sound like it should even be legal but apparently it was legal and a lot of people were using it.

>>2479641I just spent like 5 minutes trying to find the article I originally read and I can't find it, it seems like its existence has been totally wiped from Google. But I know I wasn't imagining it because I sent it to multiple people to discuss and one of the people interviewed for the article was my close friend's coworker. I just asked someone I discussed it with before if they remember the article and they do so it definitely happened. Maybe they got in legal trouble and wiped all the webpages/press articles about it?
If you're asking what the behavioural nudges actually were, iirc it worked through hijacking some of your ad space (I think it was partially developed by a major big 3 tech company, which is why my friend's coworker was interviewed for the article because they worked there) and replacing a few of your 'normal' ads with libido-enhancement nudges, like things that would make you think about sex repeatedly through the day and ramp up in the evening. There might have also been some element of stuff that promoted having more sex as normal or good for your health or something. I sound schizo but it wasn't like porn or anything, more like sneaky little things about how 'the key to a happy relationship is good sex' nudges and so on.
