The Atlantic is Asking for "Pandemic Amnesty" and Forgiveness

[candycorn]

I'm so sorry about your husband. Nothing can ever justify keeping you away from him in his final months.

We can never trust medical personnel again. Some spoke up. They were vilified and fired and now are gone. Those that remain knew what was really happening but stayed silent, compliant and complicit.

Meanwhile, as the death rate keeps going up among the vaxed, we will hear nothing other than the chant of amnesty. No explanations from those in charge who posed with their sleeve up pretending to get the jab will be forthcoming.

We unvaxed will certainly not be hearing any congratulations for not being duped nor any apology for the way we have been treated because of our failure to submit.

An apology for what? Needlessly stressing our healthcare system beyond because you bought into som asinine conspiracy theory?

Every time one of you verminous leftist butt monkeys drags out the "conspiracy theory" trope, all we hear is little piggies squeeeeeeeeeealing in terror!

I have no problem with forgiving people for not knowing what to do at the beginning of the Pandemic because we were kept in the dark by China about the severity of Covid. My problem is with the people who USED the Pandemic to seize power. If you wanted to risk your health with an untested "vaccine" then more power to you but don't force me to take it or lose my job! People like Candy accused anyone who was reluctant to get jabbed of hating the "Science" but the truth was that the science wasn't established and our reluctance was merited! Do you see even a dollop of contrition on her part? I don't! She's right back here trying to shame anyone who doesn't see it her way.

No. I said you were brain damaged. All of the posting here about poisons being in the vaccine, trackers in the vaccine, support for those assaulting those who didn't want to be exposed to someone relying on horse dewormer instead of the safe, effective, free, and available vaccine... confirm it. You are brain damaged.

Supporting the blob who authorized, paid for, and championed the CDC during the pandemic is another sign of extreme mental challenges.

The things that can't be forgiven.

The bans on places like beaches and parks, and that crazy idiot in the reaper costume
Keeping schools closed or remoted way way too long
Idiotic sales bans like the blocking of the gardening section because the items were considered "non essential"
strict vaccine mandates
Masking for show only.
Nursing home fuckups, both returning sick people to them and total bans on letting people see their elderly loved ones who were on deaths door anyway.

Aside from a little bit of confused garbling and some grammatical issues, your writing is acceptable but I don't think it's appropriate for intellectually sound adults.

Maybe you should try to write for a company that aims their "literature" at teenage girls.

The Atlantic is Asking for "Pandemic Amnesty" and Forgiveness

A new Shift in Public Discourse

igorchudov.substack.com

31 Oct 2022 ~~ By Igor Chudov


Wow. The Atlantic has a front-page article (archive link) by Prof. Emily Oster, asking for “Pandemic Amnesty”.
How interesting. The Atlantic is one of the most forward-looking and yet curated publications and they do not publish rubbish and random musings. And now they have a prominent author asking for “amnesty” and forgiveness.
Nobody is asking for amnesty for good deeds, right?
The article rambles and weaves to avoid mentioning anything specific as to who and what the amnesty would be FOR. What are the specific misdeeds that The Atlantic wants to be forgiven? Emily’s article is NOT clear.
It talks, strangely, about people voluntarily wearing masks in foreign preserves:
~Snip~
The author surely did not publish this Atlantic article out of honest-to-goodness concern for the nebulous advocates of “bleach injections”. She wants some other acts — and some other players — to be forgiven instead. Prof. Oster is coy about who those people are. I am sure that she is asking for amnesty for our “Covid response leaders”.
She published her article, before the midterms, because she is concerned about disappointed people starting to ask questions. Questions, such as

• Why is my vaccine not working for me?
• Why was I/my friend/my coworker injured by the vaccine and ignored by the medical community?
• Why am I sicker than before?
• Why am I having multiple Covid infections after being vaccinated?
• I was told that my vaccines “stop transmission”, whereas the authorities knew they don’t
• Why did unaccountable private interests take over the entirety of public response?
• Why did the above private interests make billions of dollars, while my business went bankrupt?
• Why was I lied to by the TV and media, while the truth was suppressed by Internet giants profiting from the pandemic?

~Snip~
Is it possible that everyone acted in our best interests and that the mistakes were unintentional? Are the people asking for amnesty confused well-wishers, or are they Covid Criminals who poisoned millions through malice, greed, and reckless disregard for safety? We’d need to know what happened, first, to have the answer!
Only after an investigation that uncovers what transpired, will we be able to judge whether an “amnesty” is appropriate and if so, for whom. Not before.
If such an investigation uncovers crimes, such as violation of national laws or crimes against humanity, then I hope that legally convened courts will be able to assess legally appropriate sanctions against individuals involved.
Should some of those people be amnestied? It is a legitimate question that needs to be addressed — but only after we know what happened.

Commentary:
There's a legal concept called "Criminal negligence." That happens when a person is so profoundly ignorant that it causes harm in others due to their inactions. I.e. being very stupid has a cost. Their lack of doing their own research is criminal. Thus criminal negligence.
The beginnings of asking for mercy.
Forgiveness and repentance go hand in hand. Atonement and retribution are further considerations. Does she offer to atone? No. Oster claims we need to "forgive one another." Unadulterated bull crap. There was only one vicious, cunning, fear precipitating, economy and societal shattering narrative coupled to the orchestrated drive to jab everyone.
She's trying to manufacture an Orwellian memory hole.
Like the Jan 6th persecuted, until there is amnesty there shouldn't be amnesty for those that perpetrated the Covid hoax. Prosecute every single person involved that deceived the public about the Covid virus and the “vaccine.” Prosecute every politician involved in the lockdowns, the vax mandates and the mask mandates
Then throw them all to the crowd.

No.

Why would I be "brain damaged" because I chose not to get a "vaccine" that hadn't been thoroughly tested...especially since I'd already HAD Covid and had natural immunity?

To be quite blunt I think you'd have to BE brain damaged to let yourself be a human guinea pig when there was no need! To do so because someone else "shamed" you into it shows a lack of spine!

No ‘Pandemic Amnesty,’ We Want Accountability​

An essay by Emily Oster, Ph.D., published this week in The Atlantic suggesting “We need to forgive one another for what we did and said when we were in the dark about COVID” is fanning the flames of fury among those whose lives were destroyed by ad hominem attacks, de-platforming,
de-licensure, demonetization, demonization and debilitating vaccine injuries.​

Using pejoratives like “conspiracy theory” or “misinformation” to denigrate opposing viewpoints and those who hold them requires a very high degree of certainty in your own position.
How then can Oster use uncertainty to excuse things that were said and done when she and others were in the dark?
To be fair, Oster is not responsible for all of the missteps and biased content offered by The Atlantic. However she, like many others, ought to take a hard look at why she accepted this kind of polarizing commentary as gospel and treated skeptics as heretics, or at the very least, tacitly approved the witch-hunts by doing and saying nothing.
In this country, we rely solely on a free and independent press to inform the populace, especially at a time of uncertainty. If so little was known at the time, why didn’t The Atlantic acknowledge this fact and present more than one position?
Individuals fall on a broad spectrum. Some are prone to jumping to conclusions prematurely, others remain stubbornly steadfast in their positions despite enormous evidence to the contrary. We expect more from those with a platform.
We depend on media organizations and the journalists that work for them to report the facts accurately, especially when only a few exist. In that sense, in those times we rely upon them more to point out what cannot be known than what can.
The only possible justification for this relentless one-sided commentary that defended foolish policy, divided communities and families and resulted in inestimable damage to children is that it was done, as Oster says, “in earnest for the good of society”.
But that isn’t the role of an independent press. Every element of a free society has a role to play for the common good. Scientists who are qualified to comment on complicated topics should be free to express their opinions. Our agencies of public health are required to make sensible policies and openly defend them against their critics.
~Snip~
They failed, and they failed monumentally. And to date, they have given us little reason to doubt that they will fail again.
The pandemic has taught us many lessons, but the biggest one is that we now know what highly influential media publications like The Atlantic really are. They are our authority’s strong arm when it comes to exacting its power and its diplomatic envoy when it comes to asking for forgiveness.
No, we aren’t gloating. But we are keeping score.


Commentary:
There has probably never been written an article that has produced a backlash more than Oster’s Atlantic piece.
Police beatings, teen suicides, old people dying alone, medical treatments denied (hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin), people being denied organ transplants, young children developing speech problems, sudden deaths, enormous numbers of businesses wiped out...it goes on and on.
And now a truce? Not an apology, but let’s just forgot what they did?
While the progenitor of this (Fauci) strolls off into the sunset with accumulated millions off the deaths of American elderly based upon gain off function experimentation gone wrong.

A great president? Lets look at the facts.

• You think he created a poison shot and continually employed the person who urged you to take the alleged poison shot.

Is any of that in the bullet point inaccurate?
