Dear lockdown supporters,
I sometimes wonder whether you are aware of what you are causing with your attitude. You mock and ridicule the majority of the pandemic’s victims. You trample on those who are now suicidal. You spit on all those who have lost their livelihood. You make fun of the suffering of those in poorer strata and poorer countries who are left behind by you. You are cynical and inhuman. And despite all this, people on Twitter are lashing out against those who question the overall situation.
Public lists of dissidents are created, and people are hired to find skeletons in the critics’ closets or to defame them. These borderline attacks come almost exclusively from the camp of people who “always feel like puking” as soon as we question the narrative. And, you know what, I feel sick too, because of you sickening Coronazis. You guys are part of the worst that humanity has produced: You are an unconscionable lynch mob – nothing more, nothing less. What we are currently observing is that the rule of law is being undermined. Judges who declare measures unlawful have their houses searched shortly afterwards, and leading politicians publicly claim that demonstrators are undermining our democracy. You guys seriously think that critics are right-wing fascists who want to abolish democracy. However, you do not realise that you are much closer to Stalinism than the average concerned citizen is showing antidemocratic tendencies. On the contrary, we are real democrats.
You also don’t need to keep saying that we have no respect for nurses. You haven’t cared about the nursing profession in the last years either. This accusation is absolutely hypocritical, and you should perhaps question it yourselves. Many of the politicians who are in the limelight today and are appalled by the state of the health system are simply responsible for it. And yet, you uncritically hail lobbyists and careerists of this calibre as your new heroes. Chapeau!
Unlike you, we have respect for all those suffering under the current measures. It’s illogical that our entire society has to be in a state of war in which the entire civil society has to fight against the one, maximum and invisible enemy. And anyone who questions whether this intangible enemy is really that dangerous and whether it might be possible to combat it with other, more civilian means is a COVID denier and an enemy of the people and must be hung from the nearest lamppost. You simply don’t realise what reflexes you are giving in here, but that is part of the problem. There is plenty to criticise about the media elite that calls for an ever tougher lockdown and shoots down every critic with references to supposedly full intensive care units.
Have you ever cared about the dead & the causes of death? Did you ever notice that people died every day for avoidable reasons? Do you even know how many people die every day and from what? And do you know the proportion of people who die of corona in relation to all deaths? Do you know that sugar consumption alone costs our society many more years of life than this respiratory virus? Go out and set the sugar factories on fire if you like, but please stop holding an entire society hostage just so you can live out your absolutist fantasies.
This isn’t about a virus. Otherwise, our corrupt political elite would truly promote our health. A healthy diet, exercise, healthy vitamin D levels, social contacts, stress-free environments, etc., not only increase the quality of life but also boost our immune systems. Instead, we live in a climate that promotes social phobias. Old people are afraid to see their relatives and at the same time to die alone. This is the society you have created. We are living in your dystopian reality, which has the whole world in its grip like a cancer.
There is no country in the world to which we people with common sense could flee. Yet, thoughts of escape are still pure luxury compared to the millions of people who are dying miserably in Third World townships as a result of your fantasies of omnipotence. Every time you want us to “visit an ICU for just one day” to see the misery with our own eyes, I want to respond to you that you should just go to a slum of your choice. What you’ll see there is how people live without prospects and in constant fear.
All this misery only because you believe that you are able to prolong the lives of old people (who have lived their lives) with your authoritarian and inhuman measures. The saying “the one who doesn’t know has to believe everything” is particularly true in this case. But you’re mistaken. You are an unimportant puzzle piece of a geopolitical game of the elite, and you are just too ‘mentally limited’ to comprehend its complexity. The only ones who benefit from the crisis are the mega-rich and big corporations of this planet. Those global players want to take away our freedom with these measures.
Prior to 2020, would you have consented to an experimental gene therapy against a common cold virus that poses no danger to you and for which the manufacturer wouldn’t be liable in the event of damage? If so, then get injected to be “protected”. But please leave us out of your surreal reality. And if you still don’t want to understand, then answer me one last question: Why does the common flu vaccination practice (i.e. vaccinate the vulnerable) no longer apply?
Let me be clear: it’s us, your enemies, who are currently defending your rights. It’s us who are risking our careers and reputations for speaking up against this madness. Being a cowardly collaborator like you would be much more convenient, but we chose to do the right thing. You, however, are being misled by media-supported demagogues (i.e. ‘demigods’ from your point of view) who almost entirely have strong conflicts of interests. You are a pawn in a grand mind game of people whose interests are completely different from yours. It’s not that difficult to figure that out. Also, here the motto applies: follow the money. The road to truth has many turns, but it’s eventually your own choice whether you want to begin the journey or remain in the dark.
Cheers!
Simon

Hi Simon – I am one of those who supports the current lockdown in my country (the Netherlands) en who would have even welcomed a much stronger lockdown. This on the basis of information that I got from my government: of every 100 people who get Covid 1 person dies + 15 people end up in hospital. About a third of the people ends up with some symptoms that linger on. And this are the numbers for a society that has enough structure and means to care for the ill. In Italy (Bergamo) the numbers were 5 in 100 people die. This means that if Covid had been allowed to spread unhindered and at full speed we would have had a situation that would have completely overwhelmed the country & caused extra deaths and chaos by basic services breaking down. A strict and consequent lockdown of about 3 weeks, immediately after the virus had been found, would have saved us a year of agony and material loss. The current lockdowns enable us to pull trough & yes also enable people who have not come across anyone who is contagious yet (because the percentage of infectious people in the overall population is still quitte low) to continue to suggest that: 1. Covid is not more than a mere flu 2. Their body is (in mysterious ways) able to ‘resist’ the virus….
Hi Mirjam. Thank you for your comment. I’ve been living in Netherlands a few years back (near Breda, Etten-Leur) brilliant place and very friendly people. I understand where you are coming from but I would politely suggest you research RT PCR test, what it’s creator Kary Mullis (won Nobel price for it) is saying about this test. Check why cycle threshold(Ct) matters, how many cycles were used in Netherlands during testing and come to your own conclusion about possible false positives. You noticed that I’m not telling you the truth, I’m asking you to find it yourself.
You say 1 in 100 die — that is a 99% survival rate. You kind of prove Simon’s point there. No need for any madness for a 99% survival rate. Observation (which is what science is) shows us these lockdowns and mask mandates do NOTHING one just has to look at Florida and Texas compared to New York and California. If you were going into surgery and the Surgeon said — ‘You have a 99% chance you will pull though..” .. anyone would take those odds…sorry my friend … you are a moron.
ohh you poor mind-controlled slave???
Repeating government narratives doesn’t make any sense, it is not and will never be logical thinking
your numbers are simply do not cover reality, neither of covid deaths nor of patients in hospital suffering from covid.
Even your Bergamo “scene” is a horrible mistake since their icu unit counts 10 beds only ,which is normal and which were broadcast through the world as to deter people
so how can you draw any conclusion if your basics are flawed, if you don’t do any research anytime or if you are just repeating that you have heard out of your talking box like a real zombi?????
first questions to think?♂️?
Dear Mirjam, The problem is right there in your second sentence. If you believe what the government tells you, you already lost. The actual percentage is not 1 % or more across the population, it is as low as 0.1 %. The numbers you’ve been presented are pure lie based on using wrong methods (such as PCR testing) for diagnostic purposes. I can give you one advice. Turn off your TV, the pandemic will be over at that moment.
You say that the government tell you that one in a hundred die, but let’s look at that a little closer. It’s one in a hundred of those that catch it, and of those many I would suggest probably as much as 80% had pre existing conditions that would have brought about their demise in any event. Now let’s also look at the way governments have behaved; have you once seen any information on how to treat it once a person has caught it? And why would that be, could it be that they don’t want people to survive? or maybe that if there was a cure, then the “emergency use” authorisation of the mRNA treatment wrongly described as a vaccine would never have been allowed. As Dr Simon says, follow the money.
Thank you Simon – couldn’t agree more.
Very well said Simon.
I am only afraid that those normies who still believe that the government has their best interest at heart and who still believe that we will go back to normal, are just that: believing the lies because the truth is too much to handle.
It’s easier to believe a comforting lie than it is to believe the harsh truth.
So yes, those people will only understand when they are being crushed by the boot of dictatorial regime, that they have been lied to.
They wish to take the blue pill and go back to the fairy tales.
All what you say here is demonstrably true, yet as Yuri Bezmenov said, their demoralisation (ie. Programming) is so profound that they are unable to accept the facts because they oppose in what they believe. That is what is causing the cognitive dissonance.
So I believe that it’s time to band together and form up a community with people who don’t need government to strangle the life out of them before they start appreciating what true freedom means.
Let’s show the world what real love, cooperation and freedom looks like.
Namaste ?.
Dr. Simon,your letter is beautiful because you confront those who have lost all sense of proportion and reason with an uncomfortable truth : namely , that their new ideology of „ saving lives“,actually destroys livelihoods,entire economies, the fabric of society , democracies, freedom, health, more lives than can be imagined , and Life itself.
Hello Mirjam,
you must know by now that your statements are utter BS.
As you’re Dutch, do more research or study, and at least, please take the time to watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UALy8Hzhp8

Wow, nice, open and friendly atmosphere here! Mirjam shares here concerns in a quite constructive manner and 3 of 4 answers call her “moron”, “mind controlled slave” or insult her with “your statements are utter BS”. The 1 remaining answer is friendly, but just recommends to “find the truth yourself”.
@Mirjam: I guess none of these answers motivated you to rethink your opinion, right? And you are right, why would they? They are just mere insults.
So, Ed, Bjorn, Flawless and Clyde, well played. You basically justed deepend the separation between the two camps. I hope you enjoyed it at least.
I agree that we are in a very unfortunate situation. As a society we lost our ability to talk to each other in a empathic. This is clearly shown by the responses to Mirjam.
The irony of all of this: We are so low in our culture, so diverted from the core of our discussion that the ‘meta’-comment will not have any productive consequence neither.
I would like to question these dancing doctors and nurses ? Why are they doing that ?
Thanks for the great article.
