Candid Questions For Setting Your Personal COVID Bullshit Detector

Posted By: SpaceCommando

By Fred Omstand - September 10, 2021

Something is not right about the Covid narrative we are all seeing. Conflicting, misleading, or changing information is everywhere. My personal Covid Bullshit Detector (CBD) has been ringing at high alert since December. While this article has numerous technical references, it is not intended as a technical article. Rather it is intended to open critical thinking, suggest questions we should all be asking to tune your own CBD, and concludes with a list of ten troubling questions where the prevailing narrative suggests that something is clearly very wrong.

In control systems, the engineering input called “gain” is essentially how fast your system looks at the input data and makes corresponding adjustments. If the gain on a car cruise control was maxed out, every acceleration to the desired speed would be full throttle. Low gain means you aren’t paying that much attention to the actual speed compared to desired speed, so the acceleration to desired speed would be very slow. That may not be a perfect textbook engineering definition, but good enough for this overview on gain control within your own CBD. Getting right to one of the main points of this article, now is not a time to have your CBD gain set on low amongst all the Covid narrative we are hearing.

What if the proverbial snake oil salesman knocks on your door selling a new mixture of herbs guaranteed to eliminate all health risks and make you look 20 years younger? Naturally ones Bullshit Detector (BD) would ring at full alert. Assuming you even listen to the sales pitch, six basic questions one should be asking any time your BD rings include:

1. What are the credentials of the person giving the message?
2. What studies have been done to validate the message?
3. Are the studies validated by recognized experts?
4. Does the person selling stand to profit, have questionable motives or a questionable history?
5. How many others are selling or using this product, and what is their success?
6. What are the risks of this product?

Before we dive in to setting ones CBD, let’s set some groundwork. Some readers may have short memories. Others may have complete confidence that our government, appointed agencies, and giant corporations would never lie, distort data, use propaganda, or fail to protect us with policy. Let’s review some history on that to make a point.

How many times did the Bush administration use the propaganda of citing Iraq has Weapons of Mass Destruction to justify the Iraq war? As one of many such quotes from this administration was this classic line from Cheney “There is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction.”

Lets go back to Vietnam, and how about the propaganda of entering the war being justified by responding to a North Vietnam attack known as the Gulf of Tonkin incident? It turns out that the attack on the destroyer Maddox never happened.

How about the cigarette & tobacco industry? As early as the 1930s pathologists were reporting on the damage of smoking, and certainly by the 1950s the evidence on dangers of smoking was clear. Yet over the next 20 years the cigarette industry spent huge sums on denial and even created a propaganda film “Smoking and Health” to create doubt on health concerns and allow the cash machine to keep ringing. With indisputable medical evidence everywhere, where were the agencies looking out for our health?

We have all heard of lawsuits over glyphosates from the common weed killers such as Roundup. How many people know that just before harvesting it has been common practice to spray crops with Glyphosate as a drying agent? Numerous studies now show that common breakfast cereals have glyphosate levels way over FDA designated safe levels. Why has the FDA and other government agencies allowed Monsanto (and now Bayer) to continue promoting and selling this chemical as a drying agent on our food crops?

As a last example, has there ever been a bigger example of propaganda and lies than the Nazi regime that convinced much of Germany’s 70 million citizens of the superior race concept that lead to the horrible death camps of WWII?

For some it is a hard concept to grasp. We all want to believe we live in a peace-loving country following all the fundamentals of our constitution. We all want to believe large corporations always act ethically and do what is right. Alas do we remember Enron? The facts are that propaganda is a mainstay of governments; we even had an act of congress to overturn a prohibition against domestic propaganda. Incredibly, in 2013 congress passed such legislation called The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act, which was buried in the National Defense Authorization Act of 2014.

After that brief stroll through history, let’s not kid ourselves. Propaganda, distortions of truth, and even lies do happen with governments and big corporations. It is up to all of us as individuals to gather data and make inputs into our personal BD and adjust your BD gain control. As a way of provoking thought, some hot topics or conspiracy theory stories subject to our individual BD might include the following:

- Bigfoot exists, along with the Loch Ness Monster.
- The mob, Cuba, CIA, or others were really behind the Kennedy assassination. The real shooter was on the grassy knoll.
- The Apollo Moon Landing was a fake.
- The Megalithic Stones of Baalbek and other sites in S America were impossible to build without divine intervention or alien technology.
- 911 was either known in advance or an inside job, because WTC 7 collapsed by a controlled detonation.
- Roswell was a weather balloon crash. Or it was a government cover up story.
- Climate change is proven to be man-made. Or climate change is a natural phenomenon and there is nothing we can do to change that.

We all have some beliefs and disbeliefs on all of these. While I think some of these events are interesting, none of these have an immediate impact on my daily life. Therefore, my BD gain control is set on low relative to these stories.

What about Covid? Let’s reset the calendar to fall of 2020. Covid had rampaged through the world and our lives were turned upside down. Perhaps not since WWII was the entire world as focused on one single story. We all looked to the medical industry to save us. New vaccines were promised and biotech companies were promoting new wonder drug treatments such as Remdesivir that would treat patients. Debates were being held on whether the vaccines were rushed among an all-time high of political theater and USA election integrity debate. In hindsight, it is more than disappointing that there was no funding for testing of off-label uses of drugs that were on the market for many years before Covid. Instead, all the big Pharma funding was for new, novel, and expensive bio-engineered drugs. Why was there no funding for repurposed drugs that had strong efficacy for both treatment and prevention?

My CBD started ringing at high alert when I saw the video of Dr Kory’s testimony to the senate in December 2020. I had never heard of Ivermectin, but Dr. Kory seemed to have very strong credentials and was so passionate about the safety and efficacy of this drug. I was a little skeptical but thought with a story like this it will immediately be thoroughly scrubbed by mainstream media. If there was a drug that cured Covid and was so safe, so cheap, so readily available, it would almost be a miracle and we would soon have our lives back.

I patiently waited for media to grab this story, interview Dr. Kory and his peers. Yet there was complete radio silence. I couldn’t believe it. If what Dr. Kory said in this stunning video was true, the pandemic would soon be over. My CBD went up a notch and I started going through the first six questions on my BD list. What are his credentials? Dr. Kory’s credentials and medical resume are incredible. A front line Covid ER doctor, and arguably one of the top doctors in the world in his field. He is well published and recognized globally for his work on ultrasound treatment for critically ill, therapeutic hypothermia treatment, septic shock, and he co-authored the first paper on using corticosteroids for Covid 19 patients. In other words he is a world leading doctor with everything to lose if he is wrong with all of these claims on Ivermectin.

I started to research others in this alliance of doctors promoting Ivermectin. Huge credentials, well published, all with resumes that most doctors would be thrilled to have. Something was not right here, why was nobody in the mainstream media running with potentially one of the biggest blockbuster stories ever? . . .
