Whenever mainstream news focus on a specific case, we can be certain that there's something nefarious going on. The public is fed something emotional that they can argue about. Our attention is diverted from the overall picture. A detail is selected. We're thrown a bone that we can fight over.
The latest such story here in Portugal is the six year old boy that died shortly after taking the vaccine. It mirrors the story from a year ago when a nurse died shortly after her second shot. That too was at the start of a vaccine rollout. That too ended up with experts concluding that the death was unrelated to the vaccine.
The purpose of such stories is not to enlighten anybody, but to set us up against each other. Some people are inclined to trust the experts and others are not, and so we end up fighting over a single case that doesn't in the end mean anything to anyone. The story is a trap, deliberately engineered to stir emotions on both sides of the debate, and to narrow the debate down to a single case.
If journalists were sincere in wanting to enlighten us, there would be more cases covered, and there would be an honest debate related to statistics. But none of this is happening. We get a single case to bicker over, and a bunch of numbers without enough context to be meaningful.
When it comes to the vaccine, the stories serve a particularly sinister agenda. They make it clear that the vaccine may be dangerous. Taking them becomes therefore an act of submission. We offer ourselves and our children to the greater good, known in biblical times as Molech.
Once we give this kind of offerings, we become attached to the narrative, and we start to view those who refuse to make similar offering as our enemies. Taking the vaccine is a ritual that brings us closer to Molech. To get even closer to him, people offer up their children as well. The common good requires us to make sacrifices, and those who don't are seen as evil. So goes the logic among those who have taken part in this ritual.
However, the common good is merely the aggregate of individual goods. No-one needs to sacrifice anything to Molech. We're not collectively benefitting from such sacrifices. The only ones benefitting are the priests, i.e. the political elite. Hence, we should treat the bones that are tossed to us by journalists with prejudice. We should refuse to take any strong side in any argument related to them. We can acknowledge the facts, yet refuse to conclude anything from them.
In the case of the six year old boy, we can agree that it's a tragic story, but there isn't anything more we can reasonably say based on it. It's too narrow a fact to conclude anything, so we shouldn't use it as a base for an argument.
Our arguments should first and foremost be based on principles of liberty. Everyone should be free to make decision based on their own judgments. Only when this is made clear does it make sense to bring up statistics. Beyond that, we can mention personal observations. We can point out that we know more people who've gotten sick from the vaccine than from the virus. That helps to clarify our personal position. But there's no point in mentioning the bone tossed to us by journalists. That's merely a sad story. It doesn't provide any context for us to make any decision one way or the other.
The whole point of the emotionally laden story is to create conflict, and to control both sides of the argument. Those who trust the experts are made more obedient than they were. The ones that use the story to defend their objections are given a shaky foundation for their arguments. We end up with obedient subjects and tinfoil-hat opponents.
However, if we merely state our position as suggested above, there's nothing to argue about. People can disagree with our position. They can rage against our stance, and they can express disbelief in our observations and the data we've gathered. But that has no purpose. We're not interested in arguing about any of this. We're making a decision, and we're simply laying out our thinking. If others want to continue their offerings to Molech, that's their decision to make. But it's neither good nor wise nor something we want to do ourselves.
