Conspiracy Theories from Public Health Deception

Pt. 1

He should feel his superiority over the enemy,

know the enemy better than he knows himself.

That is the guarantee of victory.

KGB instructions, 1958

My long fascination with conspiracy theories began with Santa. Became an obsession, a dogged determination to hunt down conspiracy facts, entertain conjectures and miseducate the misanthropes. My lonely readers. Why I grabbed The Anatomy of Deception: Conspiracy Theories, Distrust, and Public Health in America by Sara E. Gorman PhD, MPH from the library.

Conspiracy theories on the cover was enough to plow through her stiff academic prose to unearth more insight into “public health” epistomology. (How we know stuff.) Turns out Gorman is a doppelganger of Naomi Klein, whose book of that title, was dissected as a case study of progressive psychopathology from covid in a previous series. Conspiracy Theories from Public Health Deception will disassemble disinformation dissuaders.

We were one jackboot away from gulags, until the American people voted out the totalitarian inoculators. From full blown anti-vaxxers to ledge hesitant are still targeted for reeducation in a kinder , gentler way, (unless that doesn’t work). It’s not paranoia when they are out to get you, as George Carlin knew. Gorman identifies “a silver lining” in the ginormous surge of anti-vaxxer conspiracy theory from the wake Covid generated.

Not because more people were waking up to the lies their doctors sold them, but “in the gargantuan efforts of many researchers and practitioners who are trying every day to mitigate impacts of conspiracy theories and mistrust in the health care system and beyond.” We sound like Climate Change.

Deception was published by Oxford University Press in 2024. Conspiracy theorists would diagram a direct line between British Intelligence and their overeducated class, (including select Americans). The Oxford U. Press professes an “objective of excellence in research, scholarship and education- publishing worldwide.”

CT is racy for them, but Gorman directs an organization dedicated to combating misinformation about public health, "whose mission is to develop new methods of advancing public acceptance of scientific evidence.”

She’s also with Those Nerdy Girls, which sounds like a Bletchley Circle drinking club. She thanks them both for cheering her on and providing “intellectual fodder for her”, like sheep grazing in the valley of death.

Gorman’s a “public health expert” and journalist with an impressive list of prestigious, corporate journals publishing her treatises on “misinformation, science denial and behavioral science.”

Her father, Jack Gorman started Critica with her in NYC. Dr. Gorman was an academic psychiatrist and neuroscientistfor nearly 40 years. David Scales, “physician, scholar is a good friend” and Chief Medical Officer for Critica, (supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Weill Cornell Medicine’s JumpStart Research Career Development Program and assorted grants).

Dr. Scales is a medical professor at Weill Cornell Medicine with “research interests: Health misinformation shared on social media can have negative health consequences; yet, there is a dearth of field research testing interventions to address health misinformation in real time, digitally, and in situ on social media.”

There’s no shortage of spending on this field, operating in the dark for decades, which fruited toadstools during the plandemic. So it can’t be that. An internet search spooled out elite universities , “public health” agencies and foundations spinning webs across the Big Muddy.

Weill Cornell Medicine gained hefty grants from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and has been convicted of defrauding the NIH, while the CDC funded Cornell Public Health , so there’s already a correlational conspiracy theory.

Critica’s glossy report by Daddy and Friend was commissioned by the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) for their 2023 workshop The Public Health Infodemic and Trust in Public Health as a National Security Threat. Scooping the World Health Organization (WHO) initiative entitled Infodemic management interventions during health emergencies: an evidence and gap map of the case of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Not nearly as punchy as National Security Threat, but both place anti-vaxxers as the top threat to global health, over nuclear war and tobacco. We are mighty, but small like mosquitoes. Expect GMO anti-antivaxxers to shower us with sterile sex, so we can’t replicate in stagnant ponds, backwater bayous of the internet.

Daddy and Doctor summarized some of the output, “In 2022, AcademyHealth supported initiatives to combine social media and in-person outreach to target zip codes with high rates of vaccine hesitancy.

“American Public Health Association (APHA), the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG), and ABIM Foundation: provided funding to organizations to address misinformation on the epidemiological spectrum, working on prevention, social listening, diagnosis (i.e. risk assessment), response and successful strategies for mitigating its impact.”

They fancy themselves “infodemiologists trained with evidence-informed intervention techniques heavily influenced by principles of motivational interviewing”, crafting “interventions on posts sharing misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines.”

Critica “monitored Facebook (Meta Platforms, Inc) profiles of news organizations marketing to 3 geographic regions (Newark, New Jersey; Chicago, Illinois; and central Texas [weirdly non-specific]). Between December 2020 and April 2021, they only found “145 Facebook news posts that generated comments containing either false or misleading information about vaccines or overt antivaccine sentiment.” That seems ridiculously low ball, as if we were shadowbanned.

Considering how much was spent to reassure us, blindfold us, gaslight us and double mind fuck us, it was squandered like Harris/Walz campaign funding, still begging for dollars to cover their debt. Public Health’s own whiplash science and covaxxes gained us more converts than our proselytizing. Certainly, not mine, but even the Dirty Dozen did less damage to the Medical Monopoly’s Truth than Big Pharma/Public Health professionals and apologists. Not excluding their lapdog stenographers.

Gorman doesn’t apologize for the expensive failure of her field to defend Public Health’s scientific turf, from ignorant, stripmall preachers of “The Unbearable Mundaneness of Conspiracy Theories”, (one of her chapters). A tagcloud of terms in Gorman’s book, would feature large bubbles for Public Health Trust/Mistrust, Conspiracy Theories, Science Denialism, Health Care (meaning Medical Treatments), and Misinformation.

No investigation of evidence to support or refute claims to the contrary, simply dismissal. Not much on the public health and medical treatment catastrophe Americans are mired in. She’s mainly concerned with their misbeliefs.

Her thesis is that inequitable access to medical treatment causes increased mistrust, but in her introduction she reports fewer physicians, 60%, trust hospitals, while 72% of the general public did. In fact, familiarity breeds mistrust in the medical system and public health pronouncements.
