Medical Epistemology vs. the Amish

The vaccine really did reveal who is truly pro-tyranny and who is anti-tyranny. Jordan B. Peterson, for example, spent his whole life studying Fascism and then when Fascism came for him he supported it full-throttle. Haha, oops. 

It revealed who trusted rightly and who trusted wrongly. Well, sort of. 

The Amish didn't even think about it. Taking the vaccine didn't even occur to them for a moment. (Sub 1% vaccinated.) They instantly recognized it wasn't for them, then went about their day.

Dirt farmers can afford hygienic medical ethics. Americans, apparently, are too poor. Several Chinese cities are clearly far richer than any American city. https://nitter.unixfox.eu/CarlZha/status/1644455766093619200 The Chinese are still too poor. Can't afford to protect their health. Not like the fabulously wealthy Amish dirt farmer. 

It wasn't some sophisticated analysis which justified Amish 'hesitancy,' it was just...actual conservatism. "We haven't needed an ncov vaccine. We believe we will continue to not need an ncov vaccine." Politely and firmly declined. And they were right. 

They didn't recognize it as specially unproven technology or critique the study methodology or keep their ear to ground for red flags or follow the money or anything. They just required the vaccine prove itself to them, rather than assuming they had to prove themselves to the vaccine. It was an outsider, they recognized it as an outsider, so they kept it outside.


The JBP thing was eminently predictable from such things as his 'lobster' theories, by the way. Just as predictable as the virulently deadly epidemic of lockdowns and vaccines and ventilators and so on. You spent this long studying totalitarianism and you didn't notice that Democracy is totalitarian? Lol, loool, etc, it's obviously cope. JBP would have endorsed the yellow stars of Jude. A conformist; simply a more sophisticated register of conformism than usual.


The Amish thing is partly a joke. I am well aware that bad-faith interlocutors will instantly think I intend for them to give up their microwaves or whatever.

I mean, I personally would never spend money on a microwave, but I don't see any inherent terrible moral decay to the things. I have access to a microwave, and I just don't use it. Easy; I don't want to, I cook real food (for the taste) not anything that goes in a microwave. They don't stop you from just not taking the vaccine. You can still just not send your kids to school.

The Amish just politely, but firmly, decline. How? They use a technology known as a 'bishop' who is the head of their 'community.' Very advanced. So yes, to be like the Amish, if you're not hyper-spergy like I am, you first need to get R&D on that 'community' thing and steal this post-space-age technology. Don't forget you'll have to discover deposits of the nearly unobtainable hyper-ore, 'responsibility,' to furnish your researchers with the materials they'll need.
