Went to the doc today for a medicine check and refill. Also wasn’t feeling good. 14 year old grand daughter and my daughter have had the coof over the last two weeks so I figured I have it. Just kind of tired.

Nurse checks me in and asked if I had been jabbed. I said no. She said good because it doesn’t work. My faith in the younger people is being restored.

Doctor comes in. I explain what’s going on. He checks me out and says I probably have the coof and he’d like to test me but they ran out of test kits. And besides the results wouldn’t be back for 5 days and I’d probably be over it by then. I was going to ask about the quick nose swab and then decided to keep my mouth shut.

We started talking about the virus. His view is that everyone is going to get it and then have some type of immunity. Then I asked him where he thought it came from. He said the wet market in Wuhan. WTF? Are you serious, I asked. Oh yeah, it’s been pretty well established. Hmm, I asked about the Spanish flu and if he’d heard about the vaccine trials done by the Army that kicked it off. No, he said, sounds like a conspiracy theory. I was going to mention a couple of books and then thought, why bother.

It’s amazing that people in these positions don’t research things.

True, but honestly, it's a fucking hard slog.

You have to read A LOT to start to build that internal filter that can extract useful information from anything anyone on our side writes or produces.

Take a typical 3 hour Alex Jones podcast. He literally has maybe 2 minutes of news in there stretched out to 3 hours. So, first, you have to find it, then second, of the bits and pieces you find you have to figure out how those tiny little nuggets fit into the bigger picture. And even then, your journey only begins, this is a monster.

I was on the left before Trump ran. I tripped into all of this because the left pushed me out. I am here totally by accident.

We have to get better at communicating, at summarizing, at engaging and at creating captivating content.
