Since having been told that I am being watched on social media- nefariously watched is how it read- I have taken to inventing a secondary account and posting as a page rather than under my real name. I was told not to post “anything political at all”. I could lose my professional license, I was told.
I looked into this, and it is true, unfortunately. Due to the nature of my professional license, and the wide range of laws governing it- I have to be very careful about what I post on social media. Perhaps the damage has already been done.
A lot of the censorship doesn’t even come directly from the dominant company in social media- much of it comes from those who support the censorship and report others. It doesn’t matter whether you post a fact backed up by research, whether you post about a personal experience or even if what you say isn’t even political. If people in any way interpret what you say as offensive in any manner- and I’m talking some petty things, other users will report.
I have a theory- two theories actually- one is that social media is targeting people of a more “conservative viewpoint”. The other theory is that people of Caucasian descent or appearance are being targeted. These theories are supported by my observations.
I have been advised to get rid of associations that may report me. I have done that to a degree. There are some associates that I have who I believe are on the fence about all of this and won’t report me. As for the person who “warned” me, I am still working out how to remove that person as I suspect she’s already got ammunition in screenshots and is prepared to do it- so these days I keep my personal profile as neutral as possible while posting in other ways.
Just know that there are many, many people in the medical and scientific community being silenced in this manner. I remember several months ago, many medical professionals speaking out about the experimental vaccine. These people are now silent. Coincidentally (or not) doctors and nurses are leaving the profession at a rate higher than we’ve ever seen.
We need medical professionals and scientists who believe in studies and truth. That are non partisan and only follow the science. What we have are government entities telling medical professionals what to say. The carrot being that they keep their jobs and licenses. If we don’t have anyone in those sectors “on the inside”- we won’t get information like this…. many medical professionals have reported getting the Covid-19 virus shortly after receiving the vaccine. I don’t know how many, this is my observation from a group I am in. There were hundreds of comments that this happened to them. I don’t know why, this is a new science (mRNA), so there isn’t a lot of research (aside from animal studies) to explain it.
I urge you to explore the second polio vaccine (which was a more traditional vaccine) but infected 40,000 people with the virus. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1383764/
The first polio vaccine (1935) was pulled for more mysterious reasons but was also cited for being “dangerous” “ineffective” and the creator was outright called “a murderer”. Again, details on this one are harder to locate. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurice_Brodie
I am not against vaccines. I am against not having all the information and I am against being lied to by the government. So keep in mind that the current polio vaccine is most likely safe for most people as it’s been around for over 50 years.
The original efforts to create a polio vaccine mark what appears to be the first time that government became heavily involved in public health information and dissemination.
