Dear Dr. Yeadon!

I was so glad to spot you in the comment section…

we don’t know each other, but I’m one of your fans from the get go of this neverending St. Vitus Dance festival, and since you were driven out of the Twitter, you’ve been missed a lot :)

your lectures and interviews helped me big time in the initial stages, when I, not being a scientist, tried to understand all these biological issues in a little more detail.

I am eternally grateful for the knowledge I have gained thanks to you, to your esteemed brave colleagues and to my personal microbiologist friend, whom you also don't know, but who initially gave me that Ariadne's thread, which has allowed me to navigate through the maze of deliberately created informational chaos.

but what drove me to write this comment is something else you said right here: that you accepted the reality of what’s going on around us because you haven’t found any benign explanation and therefore, the level of evil they radiate must be exactly what it looks like.

this is precisely what I felt in summer 2020, and it’s also the reason why I had no problem (though it was still very painful emotionally) to accept the obvious: the facts and logic have spoken their word, so who am I to turn a deaf ear to what they had to say?

/*btw, was just banned from Twatter for a week just for stating exactly this, without even mentioning the facts, or elaborating on the logic: simply for sharing my memorized subjective impression, which Twitter team deemed “misinformation” :) how in heaven can a subjective impression be “misinformation”? I guess, only Twitter’s Holy Inquisition knows the answer, not us, mere mortals :) lol…/

and it’s so hard to see how many people, genuinely good hearted, mature, well educated (at least, formally) and not at all stupid, time after time opt to ignore this huge herd of overweight elephants in the room, despite the fact that they’ll soon trample them to death :(

and even harder to watch how their best intentions and personal traits turn into their complete opposites and against them and their fellow humans, making them at times behave like a bunch of decompensated malignant narcissists, or sociopaths, while perpetuating the delusion of themselves as selfless and even in some sense heroic warriors, unlike us, whom they were trained to take for either deluded madmen in need for urgent psychiatric intervention, or as coldblooded massive granma murderers, who must be identified, isolated and neutralised, as if we were some kind of social pathogens :(

metaphorically speaking, our society has long been infected with something like psycho-cultural HIV, the signs of which I have been observing and discussing for at least a decade and which over the past couple of years has managed to develop into full-fledged AIDS.

SAD times to live…

again, thank you very much for your impact, and may we all be lucky to see how light defeats these gloomy shadows! 🙏

sincerely yours
