Your response was perfect, but alas would've been read with a mixture of bewilderment and scorn, I know. I'm an Australian medical practitioner that has watched with disbelief as almost the entire profession (personally I estimate 90%), in all of its disciplines, became little more than a gaggle of useful idiots, walking, talking instruments of corrupt, self-interested government executives and their consequence-free public servants, who felt nothing of casting aside any medical ethics and, in some cases, morality. There was frank corruption within some areas (a minority but significant) of the profession too: the 'covid clinic' scam where practitioners were basically paid bribes by large corporate pathology practices to farm huge numbers of people for useless PCR tests in return for 'rent' of office space as a 'collection centre'. One I have heard of was, on some days, generating ~$400k per DAY, all of which comes from the public purse (Medicare). Large pathology corporations also made billions of dollars of profit from a single, automated PCR test (often 'batched' so that scores of tests cost little more than one test to perform, despite billing for the entire number of tests) in an unprecedented and now clearly useless application of this technology. These individuals and corporations have wandered off with the money and there will, quite clearly, be no official examination of what happened. By late 2022, the cost of this single pathology test was totalling around $10 BILLION in Australia, all taxpayer money. The state of the art Peter Mac Cancer Centre in Melbourne cost ~$1 Billion to build, so that's ten world's-best, multidisciplinary cancer treatment centres for ONE SINGLE pathology test. This level of madness defies comprehension.
I have been left with a deep sense of shame by association, which I'm struggling with. I've lost faith in a profession I've spent decades in, one which shows no signs of self-reflection. So what did I do during the war? Like you Richard, I tried, in my own small way, but all I received in return was 'tumbleweeds and crickets'.
What an appalling state of affairs we've descended into. I haven't heard such authentic stories of corruption as you outline, but the stench of it was everywhere. The small-arms salvos we fired at the battleships of big government bounced off the armour plating like so much chicken shit. Letters to editors and think-tanks likewise. The Church collapsed to its knees, praying to a false god. I think our small scale, hand-to-hand guerrilla actions where we defy the abominations that directly confront us are critical - the receptionist no doubt got a metaphorical punch in the mouth when she had to reply to my 'return fire'. If we keep going, we'll acquit ourselves honourably, regardless of the outcome.
A conversation with a neighbour took an unexpected turn yesterday. We were talking about employment, and the general scarcity of people vs positions. And the neighbour asked, genuinely, what's the problem? Why are there so many vacancies?
Seemed like I was setting myself up to get my head snapped off, but I went ahead and said the words 'vaccine mandates'. I said a lot older people particularly had opted for early retirement over the last couple of years, preferring that to the junk juice.
Neighbour said 'Yes, that what my mum did. She could have stayed on but she quit instead.'
I think she wanted someone else to say the quiet part out loud.
Well worth the try Richard. You may have to resort to the 1970s/80s methodology of kidnapping the cult member and holding them prisoner, as you counter argue their new belief system until they break. Oh, hang on... that's what they did during the pandemic.
What a thoughtful response you sent and how thoughtless and careless was the response. Well done for trying. I haven't done anything so thought provoking. I had the first two adenovirus vector "vaccine" after reading the book by the feted Oxford researchers who developed it. But no others. I have since read lots and have developed a healthy scepticism towards the whole vaccine regime that the health authorities foist on us.
I find it so bizarre that people behave as though they don't hear/read any information I give. I really don't understand the non-reactions. It's beyond unfathomable.
And that's a lovely picture of Cathedral Gorge in The Kimberley if I'm not mistaken....without people and few footprints! There is much peace and sanity to be found up that way.
Yes, taken in 2021. Somehow we managed to border-hop our way from Vic and back with only a single PCR contribution to the coffers of the pharma-medico complex. Good luck enforcing a mask mandate out there.

That is pretty damming corruption. I cannot imagine how hard it it is for doctors with integrity.

Ummmm... a well written email all the same....

I always enjoy your pieces.
I find it so bizarre that people behave as though they don't hear/read any information I give. I really don't understand the non-reactions. It's beyond unfathomable.
I don't think it changed the minds of the readers, but if they take note of how many people are annoyed by this, perhaps it sends a signal.
Or perhaps not, as they might feel that they are on a holy mission and any non-believers are pathetic, lol.

I was up there then too, explored much of Purnululu and elsewhere in the East Kimberley. It's an extraordinary place.
Have you had reply. My member is singularly unresponsive.
I suspect they are studiously trying ignore the evidence and hoping it will go away.
