It's very hard to change people's minds about this Sasha ...
I think you are right about confrontation ... it is about posting material publicly ... as you already do ... you are one of the most effective people out there ... and you certainly have done the most important research as far as exposing the origins of Covid ...
It seems to have been sold to Govts under a 'National Security' pretext ... which would account for all the lies ...
I think it is because of great research people like you are doing ... the Prime Minister of New Zealand ... my country ... has just resigned (I refuse to use her name) ... due to pressure from the truth ...
My experience has also been brick walls in the face of hard evidence. Early on I attempted to point out the invalidity of the PCR to my staff, as they locked themselves at home, as well as the math behind the 95% effective claims, only to be met with "conspiracy theorist" finger pointing and refusal to return to the office.
The only things that appear to "work" to any degree is asking Socratic style questions to seed doubt, and/or their own personal experience/tragedy, or a combination: "So why did you only get Covid after having the shots, and why haven't I got it?" "Why do you think this aggressive cancer was diagnosed 2 weeks after your booster shot?"
You nail it here: "Changing of the human mind happens ~99% of the time based on the emotional response, not the rational response." Note for most, this is how purchasing decisions are made as well.
Your experience has been mine. Data, facts, logic all fall on deaf ears. These people only seem to respond to the same news and political sources that convinced them to hold their present beliefs in the first place. It's a similar phenomenon as domestic abuse victims identifying with and protecting their abusers, a type of Stockholm Syndrome. The abused will tell a neighbor who witnesses abuse to leave them alone if they offer to help, the potential rescuer becomes the threat to the abusive relationship the victim is locked into.
That said, I've found the following resource a good one that has helped me move the moveable:
Here's a series of videos that I've watched multiple times. It takes a lot of practice and review to get the techniques down, it's very easy to be triggered and veer off-track into non-constructive communications:
Nice job Sasha! You handled the interaction with the Nice Swedish Man as well as anyone could have and better than most. The Branch Covidians can't be convinced by anything and it seems like the more educated they are the deeper the psychosis.
Dodo bird... hilarious. Your interview with kim iverson on DoD countermeasures documents blew my mind, and also I'm not at all surprised. I also don't attempt to change people's minds, i don't even share on social media anything i learn, because i know how it is to be in the narrative silo. I was there. Until a friend at work whom i had started talking politics with suggested an alternative news show, which i started watching and have never looked back. When i share "controversial" ideas or news on, say, facebook, either nobody looks at it, or they say that's fake news, or it's maybe shadowbanned cuz i get no Likes. But there's no real discourse. It's as if people see it and roll their eyes and ignore it/me. But, i know what i know.
thanks Sasha, appreciate the depth of your analysis always.
unfortunately what is necessary at this stage is mothers marching en masse in the streets to protest the murder of their babies and their children. Little else will move the giant mass of indifferent and intoxicated flesh off the American couch
You were so kind in your response to the nice swedish man, and i think you are correct to note he must have been suffering and delusional. I have very smart, dear friends who, much like the nice swedish man, just cannot see what seems intuitively clear to me re: the gene therapy developed in a matter of days then mandated and all other treatments censored and/or forbidden. But you end on a positive note and so i, too, shall keep hope! Thank you.
Sasha, if someone as knowledgeable and articulate as you are can't change a mind, there is no hope for me! The only thing I do at this point is speak of my personal experience. Never had a vaccine (67) as a child I had severe asthma and bad reactions to drugs. The doctor actually told my mother I should NOT take any vaccines for fear of an adverse reaction. I cured myself (later in life) with food and Chinese herbs. I take a variety of supplements, get outside often. I rarely get ill beyond a mild cold. It's very interesting to me that no one ever asks me, knowing I didn't get the injection how I'm feeling. Many highly innoculated people I know are ill all the time. I have built a strong immune system and I'm proud of that.
I don't try to convince anyone now as my own family don't get it. It's been an incredible journey though as I've actually had tons of conversations with my dad about the crazy world we find ourselves. He was an incredibly successful engineer managing huge projects, so I decided to try and show him the scale we could be lied to in a way I thought he could best grasp it. I guess I didn't explain it well because despite the fact he now accepts NASA have no evidence they landed on the moon, he chooses to believes they did. He also believes 16 goat herders were responsible for 9/11, unable to explain how a commercial airplane squeezed through a tiny hole in the pentagon, or how another airliner disappeared into its footprint in Shankesville, or that WTC building 7 collapsed at freefall speed due to office fires. As he wasn't able to come to terms with those things, I have long ago accepted that I'm not going to the one convince him to stop taking the shots :( As I say though I've learnt lots about how brainwashed most people are and now I try to meet each person where they are at when the topic arises.
Thank you very very much for your engagement. I 'm a no-one in all this paranoid B.S, although I do not consider myself as (a no-one) . It s just that l have no ability to do anything. But l do. I just don' t comply with any of what l hear from the mass media. Any at all. You take care of yourself and hope you can make the difference and you will. Regards.
I have several family members who believe the lies and after doing my best to wake them up I have finally resorted to prayer. They are beyond reasoning having bought the lies. It's my hope and prayer God can and will reveal the truth to them at some point. Meanwhile I continue to read excellent Substack articles like yours that prepare me for any who question the steady stream of lies. Thank you for standing firm against the lies and false narrative. You are not alone. We stand with you. Thank you!
I wish I knew how because my wife, who I love dearly and overall get along pretty well with, insisted on getting the shots and still believes in the narrative, while I never believed in it since Dr. Luc Montagnier said the animals in the trials died, which was early on.
So I live in this divided house and am reminded of the fault lines every day. Luckily she agreed to let our at that time 13 year old decide for himself, which is way too young to be deciding such a thing for oneself, but he decided to be cautious, and while he has such a need to trust authority that he still believes the narrative, he must be at least a little suspicious because he hasn't taken the shots.
That was an epic battle I can tell you, but we are ok so far, and my wife has no symptoms, and only worries about me.
Wow! As an American living in Sweden, I can say you really nailed it. Swedish scientists that I know are all very clever and hardworking (believe it or not with all the vacation time), but man are they naive! Sheltered in their predator-free, nanny-state, they simply cannot fathom the evil that has occurred or that their precious authorities would lie to them.
I'm in the industry and I can't find many colleagues who have thought about the speed at which these biological products have been made and released. It boggles the mind, I've always considered people in biotech intelligent but they have closed their minds and put their arms out for the jab. I'm disappointed and frustrated but I've been keeping an open door for an awakening and regret.

It seems like millions of us have had frustrating conversations with this exact same Swedish man.
And thank you for treating us to another beautiful work of art!
