At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. military launched a secret campaign to counter what it perceived as China’s growing influence in the Philippines, a nation hit especially hard by the deadly virus.
The clandestine operation has not been previously reported. It aimed to sow doubt about the safety and efficacy of vaccines and other life-saving aid that was being supplied by China, a Reuters investigation found. Through phony internet accounts meant to impersonate Filipinos, the military’s propaganda efforts morphed into an anti-vax campaign. Social media posts decried the quality of face masks, test kits and the first vaccine that would become available in the Philippines – China’s Sinovac inoculation.
The U.S. military’s anti-vax effort began in the spring of 2020 and expanded beyond Southeast Asia before it was terminated in mid-2021…
A key part of the strategy: amplify the disputed contention that, because vaccines sometimes contain pork gelatin, China’s shots could be considered forbidden under Islamic law.
The military program started under former President Donald Trump and continued months into Joe Biden’s presidency. Apparently, the campaign also sought to disparage other vaccines that rivaled Pfizer’s and Moderna’s.
Okay, but that wasn’t in America, right? It had nothing to do with us here, right? I mean, all of us who doubted the vaccines, we did that because we used our own brains, not because we were being brainwashed.
But how do we KNOW?
What will the next bombshell be? That the Chinese ran a similar anti-vax campaign in the United States?
At what point do we begin to doubt everything, even our own thoughts?
That’s why I keep reminding people: God gave you common sense for a reason. Use it and don’t be swayed this way and that by every wind, because there will be many.
Please read one of my first essays that went viral, The Demonization of the Unvaxxed. to learn more about common sense from Puddleglum in C. S. Lewis’s book The Silver Chair.
Do you think we’ve all been played? What would Puddleglum say?
Have we all been played? Oh, yes, and then again and again. Layers of deceit, threads of truth running through them and the hope that any sane person would throw up their hands in confusion and defeat. Details don't matter at some point once you get how they do it. They just waste your time.
Time to go around all of it and make THEM obsolete.
I’ve been operating under the theory that all governments & most institutions are menaces to humanity & society for most of my life now and an aggressive distrust of & contempt for all such organizations & “authorities” have served me exceedingly well.
Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see (until you hear an official denial). There’s no such thing as political coincidences!
I don’t know why but this article feels like on big fat lie. The “govt good guys” warned us about a vax? The ONLY reason in my mind why they might do this is because all of freaking congress and google and everybody and their dog was invested in Moderna or Pfizer and they were not gonna let china get a piece of the $$$ pie.
Let's see what happens next. I mean, in the bigger picture, it doesn't really matter. It's just interesting at this point to see the lengths they go to in order to confuse people.
The very first thing Jesus tells his guys in Luke 21:8 when they ask about the last days signs is to not be deceived ...remember Satan is the master of deception! Satan is the author of confusion....and with AI growing watch out for the "deep fakes"....maranatha!!
so the final idear here is that US-made jabs are "great"--same message as the AmeriCons got--the only diff. is that in sayin' "our slop is better than Chynnna's slop" is that they also diss Chynna an' their CCP-made jabs--while drummin' up desire for the "all powerful" Pfffizer. I don't see this as a different narrative as it still pushes jabs...just not the sinovax... The real question is WHY bring this out now? If anything it's supposed ta pump up "our" companies in time for "the next one!"

Thanks.
True!!! I just go into the mountains and hike. It always reminds me of what matters.
Hi Karen - I can't grab an independent comment box (technical wiggerie)
No matter all the twists and turns and endless 'mind fuckery', I don't do drugs. Bottom line.
No drugs for me.

Played? This freakin' game is in extra innings.
Checks out to me.
