“But if thought corrupts language, language can also corrupt thought. A bad usage can spread by tradition and imitation even among people who should and do know better.”

- George Orwell Politics and the English Language

George Orwell, author and apparent seer, wrote extensively about totalitarian overreach, its means and methods, throughout his lifetime.

WRITTEN SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 It’s interesting how words develop definition, almost automatically, as society and culture changes.

This happens as a matter of course, over time, all on its own. But that’s not the only way it happens.

Sometimes, the media apparatus, the corporate conglomerates that glom onto one another, incorporating and gobbling up ‘News’ brands, they have the power to perpetuate misuse of language by dissemination. In other words, they can say something and millions will hear it, so if they use a word incorrectly, millions will be conditioned to also misuse the word.

More insidious that this, academia has, through the development of theory, also used language in new ways. Some of this is an honest attempt to coin a term, creating nomenclature for new ideas by connecting to root meanings of words and their components - prefix, root, and suffix. Still, some of that theory, especially critical theory, has purposefully inverted the meaning of words that often reflect the exact opposite of what is etymologically implied. Detaching these words from their root words, repurposing them, they appropriate the cultural wellspring of language for their own misuse. A prime example of their claiming for their own that which is ours is the redefinition of the word, ‘Racism’. Racism, as the root of the word - race - clearly implies, is an ism about race.

What’s an ism? ism noun \ ˈi-zəm

They’ve force-fed our mouths this new definition of racism, and in doing so, they have embodied the prior definition of racism.

Their new definition of racism is itself racist, as the first definition defines racism.

Recently we’ve seen other Orwellian examples of language manipulation.

There’s A Way Back - web.archive.org The “Wayback Machine” is a web archive that records screen shots of websites over time. As of January 18, 2021, the word ‘vaccine’ had a very simple and single definition - the same one definition it had always had.

The use of the word, ‘racism’, thereafter came to imply, in the common vernacular, that some people were better, and some worse, by way of their race.

So racism, when broken down into root and suffix, is easy to understand. The word naturally developed, and in each subsequent application of the word, we can easily see how.

However, that word has recently been forcefully redefined, from a critical theory perspective, to mean the exact opposite. They’ve developed a theory, a distinctive doctrine... and a cause... around race. It’s hard to miss this literal inversion of the meaning of the word, ‘racism’, if you understand how words develop over time.

Liberty, Liberally

There is a trap that is set by the false, left/right paradigm of modern political discourse.

If you have a unique thought, it cannot be heard, even when you say it clearly.

The majority of people have been trained by the political parties that there are only two points of view, and that we all have to choose between those two. So, when presented with an idea that is outside of that duality, most tend to to categorize it - left, or right. Which way to turn?

Regardless of the countless examples of this phenomenon, the real loss for humanity is that every individual is capable of forming their own perspectives, if allowed to do so. Of course, that’s with the assumption that we would overcome our own apathy, and actually care enough to think about things deeply. This leads us to the classic chicken or the egg, which came first, idea:

Screen shot from the web archive, Wayback Machine, showing the Webster’s definition of ‘vaccine’ as of January 18, 2021

By January 26, 2021, Merriam-Webster had updated their definition of vaccine, for the first time in history, to include an experimental shot that previously would not have been referred to by that trusted name.

Definition of ism 1 : a distinctive doctrine, cause, or theory So, the primary meaning of the word “racism” is a distinctive doctrine, cause, or theory about race. As the word has been used, since first being used in the mid 1920’s, it only implies a belief that race plays a role in human ability.

This is surely a layman’s application of ‘scientific racism’, as it would affect the social sphere. Treating different races differently, scientific racism suggested that the races evolved separately, and perhaps from entirely different species (see ‘polygenic’). This led to a caste system supporting by science that was, after all, always theoretical. (This was widely accepted science in the decades leading up to Hitler, and it was from this scientific theory that Hitler championed the ideas of racial superiority.)

WRITTEN MAY 17, 2018

Is public apathy something that occurs naturally, and the result is the twosided paradigm? Or, is the two-sided paradigm the cause of public apathy? I lean towards the latter.

Perhaps if it weren’t for our force-fed fealty to this left or right world, we would be in a position to contemplate our own thoughts and derive our own conclusions.

Perhaps without the overarching nonsense that we must accept, that only two perspectives should be debated, we would change the debate itself.

Since I’ve been writing and publishing these essays, I’ve had several interactions with people in real life that have caused me to consider and write this current essay. Several people have mentioned these essays to me in passing, and they seem to identify the themes - although not completely - with either their own viewpoint, or that of the perceived opposing viewpoint.

Basically, I’ve been called a liberal by self-identifying conservatives, and a conservative by self-identifying liberals.

Screen shot from the web archive, Wayback Machine, showing that Webster’s had, by January 26, 2021, added a secondary definition to ‘vaccine’, for the first time in history.

Once again, the internet proves to be fundamentally flawed in it’s historykeeping capacity.

The shot might be safe and effective, but it is not a vaccine.

This isn’t about the efficacy of the shot, and my traditionally liberal inclination is that everyone ought to be able to choose to do what they want to do... so long as they are fully informed as to what the shot is, and what it isn’t.

It’s odd. I feel like I can’t escape. It’s a feeling of isolation that is rather unpleasant.

If you think about it, the one thing that the Republicans and the Democrats always - and I mean ALWAYS - agree on, it’s that no other perspectives

are valid. The left and the right will vehemently defend their duopoly, and acting as one, both sides will shame you for not choosing a side.

It’s a bit of a trap, that we can’t have a conversation outside of the defined narrative. The people who control things do so by having a comfortable adversary. The adversary must be the absolute mirror image of their position.

And like a house of mirrors, we find ourselves lost in that illusion.

Someone taught me long ago that you can navigate a house of mirrors adeptly, first try, simply by looking down at the ground, tracing where the floor meetings the mirrors. Well, we just need to look down at the ground, that common ground, to find our way out. The choices put before us, the two choices, lead us to believe that we should choose the one that most resonates with us. But these two choices will always be a pendulum dynamic, causing disorientation.

There will never be any real change in our system of self governance, if we don’t decide to step out of the house of mirrors and recognize that it is a mere reflection of the potential of human thought.

People spend decades in that illusion, and they never see progress. They only see their perceived enemy, staring back at them.

There are carnival barkers all over the place, inviting us in to this house of mirrors. And we don’t teach intuition, only intellect in our schools, so that we are not well-versed versions of ourselves.

Those who are best suited to this system, then, are those who are most likely to bifurcate their own sense faculties, those who can set aside reason and work within an abstraction of absolutes.

Each one of us is worthy of our own opinions. We shouldn’t be married to any ideology that we can’t honestly say that we understand completely.

The idea of hierarchy of thought, that someone knows better than you, and can use your self-determination better than you could, well, that’s ridiculous.

That’s why I ridicule that false duality of political parties and the left/right ideologies every chance I get.

The carnival barkers will do whatever it takes to suck you in, but it’s a trap. In the end, you will end up right where you started, only with less money in your pocket.

Volume I - Issue VIII

The reality is that dictionaries are reflections of usage, not just original intent of a word. That’s the reason why oftentimes words have additional meanings. Dictionaries contain practical usage, and language tends to bend to the will of the people over time. In this case, the media propagated that usage, and the people repeated it, so much that the folk’s at Webster’s added it as a secondary definition... because the original definition doesn’t apply.

Liberty, Liberally

but significantly changing the meaning.

Whereas Webster’s dictionary might be forgiven, being only a reflection of how words are being used in general, the CDC was first to suggest that the mRNA shots be conflated with ‘vaccine’. Their own after-the-fact finessing of their earlier explanation is not so easily accepted.

It, Contracted A Poem by Joshua Fryfogle WRITTEN JANUARY 5, 2021

But power of the media to force new words into the discourse, or to repurpose existing words, is not a natural evolution of language. It is not culture, it is anti-culture. It’s an artificial effect, deceptive in intent. In the words of the critical theorist, those who use our cultural output - our words - in ways that deny their roots is ‘cultural appropriation”.

It’s been a while We took a break The world is changing The earth will quake

It’ll be a while Between these shifts Tectonic groundswell

Screen shot of the CDC’s website, showing an update definition of vaccine, as of September 9, 2021.

Screen shot from Google’s Ngram Viewer, an online tool that tracks the usage of words and phrases over time, making use of the internet and a nearly endless database of published materials.

Aside from redefining and culturally appropriating existing words, the Critical Theorists have also created novel phrases all their own. Above is a usage-over-time chart, showing that one such term, ‘cultural appropriation’, was only recently introduced.

‘Cultural Appropriation’, according to The Concise Oxford Companion to English Literature:

“The term emerged during the last twenty years of the 20th cent. as part of the vocabulary of the post‐colonial critique of Western expansionism.

One early significant discussion was

by Kenneth Coutts‐Smith in ‘Some General Observations on the Concept of Cultural Colonialism’ (1976), where he brings together the Marxist notion of ‘class appropriation’.”

If ‘vaccine’ does not mean something specific, then any shot could be called a vaccine. A vaccine is usually given as a shot, though not always. A vaccine can be administered by mouth as well, but because we associate a vaccine with the syringe, and not the new concoction within, we easily associate vaccine with the process of injection.

Back To The Way Back!

“Why don’t you make like a tree, and get out of here?”

-Biff Tannen, the bossy, bully buffoon from the 1985 classic, ‘Back To The Future’ Again, we use the handy-dandy web portal - web.archive.org - and we see that the CDC is similarly finessing their own verbiage about vaccines. What we find is that as recently as August 26, 2021, under ‘Vaccines & Immunizations’ on the CDC website, that a ‘vaccine’ is a treatment that “produces immunity” to a specific disease.

You’ll feel the lift

The new language from the CDC changes something fundamental, something that all prior vaccines would have done.

Produce immunity. Now, vaccines simply stimulate “immune response”, lowering the bar considerably for how this word was once defined - both by Webster’s and by the CDC... because the original definition no longer applies.

It’d be all while

But B-12 shots stimulate “immune response”, and we wouldn’t call that a vaccine. Hormone treatments are given by injection, and they aren’t vaccines, either.

We’ve been distracted

The word vaccine is simply not synonymous with injection, even if the goal is to affect the immune system.

A vaccine is something specific, and until recently we knew what that word actually meant, relative to other injections we might receive. The CDC’s misapplication of this word, followed by their eleventh hour Orwellian edit, sandwiched around the secondary assessment in Webster’s - it all adds up to my apprehension.

Note: Every day, when I pick up my youngest son from school, I text him a poem that I’ve written. This poem, and the other published as ‘You Are Light!’, are both from that series. ‘You Are Light!’ references this poem from the day before.

You live your life And you will rest Until the strife

‘Twas only after

That we’ve considered How ‘it’ contracted

Calling a shot a vaccine doesn’t make it a vaccine. A shot is a means of administering many medicines and treatments. If you get a B-12 shot, even though it helps your immune system, it’s not a vaccine. A vaccine is a specific type of treatment that doesn’t always need to be administered by shot.

Conflating this shot with a vaccine is simply, intellectually dishonest. Calling someone “anti-vax” for not trusting this new technology only compounds that grammatical conflation.

But this is, after all, the chaos and confusion that critical theory seeks to introduce, through a Marxian, dialectical revolution. By taking liberty with language itself, they’re attempting to take liberty from every individual.

Who’s Calling The Shots Here?

HOW THE GOVERNMENT & CORPORATIONS FINALLY TURNED ME AGAINST THE mRNA SHOT WRITTEN AUGUST 23, 2021, COMPLETED SEPTEMBER 12, 2021

When I first heard that there was a new kind of treatment that would create immunity in an entirely new way, I was excited. I wasn’t fearful of the mRNA treatment, but rather, I was hopeful. What’s not to like about a brand new medical breakthrough?

And people ought to have the right to try new treatments - that’s medical freedom, in my view.

I believe in medical freedom.

When they said that this new treatment didn’t work in the way vaccines had traditionally worked, that didn’t bother me, either. It’s a novel, scientific development, after all.

Keep in mind, when all of this started, I had no problem with this new treatment. I was excited, even, that people were able to give informed consent for this amazing new scientific breakthrough. But when they call it what it is not, and then they mandate that you must get the shot to keep your job, then we’re no longer talking about medical freedom. That is coercion, and misinformation, combined to compel people to take a new medical treatment.

You Are Light!

A Poem by Joshua Fryfogle WRITTEN JANUARY 6, 2020 I wrote you something yesterday That had a little quirk

This is why I am, as of now, firmly opposed to the mRNA shot. Not because I was from the beginning. Not because I am opposed to vaccines as they were traditionally defined, but simply because they are lying and then coercing people into medical procedures.

A grammar spell, contracted well As a little perk March 8, 2021, CNBC reports on the CDC study that 78 percent of hospitalized, ventilated, and dead Covid patients are overweight. This should have changed the national conversation, but there’s even less corporate profit when people start eating less, and eating healthy.

But what I said, besides the silly Words about it all Was something that you need to know As nation’s sometimes fall

How could they have handled it differently?

When they told me that the new treatment was a ‘vaccine’, I raised an eyebrow. I asked myself how this could be both a novel medical breakthrough, and also a vaccine. If it was different from a vaccine, enough for them to brag about it, and if it didn’t work in the way vaccines work, then why were they calling it a vaccine? The word ‘vaccine’ is a word that people trust.

The earth will quake, I told you this In words that rhymed just so I really made of point of it In hopes that you would know

Why did this cause me concern?

Because a fundamental part of medical freedom is ‘informed consent’. My concern was that the purveyors of the new mRNA treatment wanted the best of both worlds. They wanted the public trust of calling their new treatment a vaccine, but they also wanted the recognition for this novel, patentable (read that: profitable) new treatment. But both couldn’t be true. It can’t be a genius new medical breakthrough and also a time-tested, trusted vaccine.

The world that you’re inheriting Is not what it should be It’s changing in so many ways Ways we can’t yet see But you must stand up for what’s right And fight each day to know

Simple, they could have stuck with their original story, that this is a novel medical treatment that aims to achieve immunity in an entirely new way, totally different from the function of vaccines. Then they could have focused their promotional efforts on encouraging healthy lifestyle changes that would improve natural immune response. Then they could have stuck to their promise that use of this new, ingenious mRNA treatment would remain voluntary.

I wasn’t even going to publish these writings about the so-called ‘vaccine’.

What you’ve read up to here is one of many essays I’ve entered into my journal, as I work out my own worldview. After a recent decree from President Biden, I was compelled by my conscience to compile my writings about this issue, and to publish them in the next issue of Liberty, Liberally, when on September 9, 2021, President Biden declared himself king.

Under Duress

When they told me that the the new treatment would be available to anyone who wanted it - even though they kept calling it a “vaccine” while they bragged about how new and different it was - I still felt reasonably good about it, because it was still a matter of choice. They were mislabeling this novel treatment as a ‘vaccine’, and as a result Webster’s dictionary even added a new definition to “vaccine” for the first time ever, furthering that misnomer, but still... it was optional, and I believe in medical freedom.

The difference between dark and light To see which way to go I’m sorry that this time has come When you were meant to live But seeing how you love the truth I hope that you’ll forgive Those of us who came before Who didn’t do so well And brought upon your generation All this coming hell But I know you, son of mine I’ve seen you do what’s right!

So when you see this darkened world Remember, you are light!

Note: Every day, when I pick up my youngest son from school, I text him a poem that I’ve written. This poem, and the other published as ‘It, Contracted’, are both from that series. The two poems were written back to back, and this one references the poem from the day before.

Liberty, Liberally

On August 23, 2021, when President Biden announced that the new treatment had received full approval from the FDA, and then announced that large corporations should mandate that their employees be inoculated with the new treatment, that’s when I was turned against the mRNA shot. Up until that point, I was fine with it. I was wary, because they were refusing to simply, clearly call it a new treatment, and insisting on calling it a ‘vaccine’, which certainly was misleading, but I still felt good about the fact that it was a matter of choice. But if major corporations are now going to do the bidding of those in government, who are lawfully prevented from mandating this or any medical procedure - because of medical freedom - then I am simply forced to take a hard stance against these new mRNA shots.

When they told me that this genius new treatment, that was also supposed to be trusted as we trust vaccines, was really the only way to prevent COVID, I raised both eyebrows. By the time the mRNA shot was available to the public, months after the pandemic ripped through our communities, the powersthat-be still hadn’t promoted the best possible advice: changing our American diets of high-calorie, low-nutrient, processed foods. Yet here they were, promoting this new treatment as if it were the only way to stop this disease.

Even when the reports came out that most of the people hospitalized were overweight, the people in power didn’t make a peep about changing our food habits. In fact, alcohol consumption shot through the rood during those lockdowns, and fast-food drivethroughs were hopping for the most part.

Ask Your Doctor If HCQ Is Right For You WRITTEN MAY 21, 2020 Editor’s Note: The corporate media and political class have again waged an information war against a wellestablished, widely prescribed, common pharmaceutical drug - this time, Ivermectin. It seems appropriate to look back, some 16 months ago, and review the attempt then to discredit another zinc ionophore, Hydroxychloroquine.

There is a really pointless, but potentially dangerous debate going on right now about the efficacy of Hydroxychloroquine. Online, and on the minds of many, we see the debate taking shape against the backdrop of the two-party system. The left party hates the right party, and the right party hates the left, and rain is wet and sky is blue.

Nothing new, but this time, for some people, it could actually kill them.

The objections to HCQ are largely attendant to the warnings of sideeffects. The pushback against the use of this common medication (that’s been used for 65 years) is mostly about the side-effects, like heart arrhythmia.

So, it doesn’t take a Ph.D., to realize that this objection to HCQ could be applied to any prescription drug.

They all have side-effects. That’s why they are prescription drugs. And we all know this simple fact, this is not novel information. This is something that basically everyone from every background already knows.

guidance. That’s why so many doctors are prescribing it.

If you watch the mainstream news, or read their articles about HCQ, you might end up thinking that the sideeffects of HCQ must be really, really bad. However, that doesn’t line-up with what we know: The World Health Organization has included HCQ in it’s List of Essential Medicines. 5.6 million prescriptions for HCQ were written in 2017 alone. The VA prescribes over 40,000 doses per day. In other words, this drug’s negative side-effects, after 65 years of widespread use, are welldocumented.

So, the only real and rational concern that we can justify regarding this medication is how it might be different in this particular context - as applied to COVID 19, a disease that, if untreated, might kill you.

Now, if all the pharmaceutical companies can offer you their drugs through their paid advertisements on mainstream media, constantly, while listing a litany of negative side-effects, why is HCQ any different? Many of the drugs on mainstream media are really new, and oftentimes there are unforeseen consequences - that’s why they include the part about their drugs possibly killing you. So you know beforehand, and their liability is lessened.

In case you die.

If you contract coronavirus, and you develop COVID 19, I have no advice for you. Don’t ask me, or any unqualified person on the internet, and certainly not some politician or television personality.

acknowledged, up until September 9, 2021, that it was not the role of federal government to create these mandates which is true for several reasons.

freedom. You might want to inform yourself as to what that is, seeing how the establishment is in lockstep in their failure to inform the public, but the information is out there. You might be in the dark, but not if you’ve read this far. For 80 plus years the federal government has denied the medical benefits of cannabis, meanwhile deciding that OxyContin was safe and non-addictive. I have no reason to trust government agencies as if they are God. I do not trust those who have been caught lying, again and again.

While Biden and his admin had previously suggested that it was the role of private corporations to do what the federal government could not, the Supreme Court defines Biden’s federal impotence on issues of immunity by leaving this question up to the People and their respective legislatures.

These congresses of the states, they were elected by the people, and are more immediately answerable to the people, so the Supreme Court decided that mandatory vaccinations were the purview of those representatives of the People. This precludes the federal government from making mandatory medical decrees, and puts the power closer to the people, decentralizing it among the states. Biden and his agencies and administrators acknowledged this fact, until they didn’t.

All they had to do was be honest when their bureaucracies failed us. But they keep lying, and I refuse to pretend that they are not lying. Their shots, their novel mRNA technology, has proven rife with problems, adverse reactions, breakthrough infections, so instead of acknowledging this as a failure, they lie and redefine words. It’s gaslighting on a global scale, and the record proves it.

So no, it was not the right-wing partisans that turned me against the mRNA shots - it was the proponents of the shots, the powerful few who insist on calling it what it is not, and are now trying to leverage and even mandate massive corporations to coerce 100 million people into taking this new treatment, under duress, that has slowly but surely broken my trust.

Now, as I’ve written elsewhere, this is not a “vaccination” as it would have been defined during the time of that court ruling, Jacobson v.

Massachusetts, 1905, so I would argue that Biden’s mandates fail the constitutional test in at least one more measure, but I digress...

Shot In The Dark

Also, Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself.

If you want to take the shot, take the shot. Once again, I believe in medical

Ask your doctor if HCQ is right for you.

One of the largest advertising block in the world is the pharmaceutical industry.

Think about that. They literally market drugs to you that are prescription drugs, ending with the suggestive caveat: Ask your doctor if ... is right for you.

Then, they list the side-effects.

It’s usually a laundry list of awful sounding outcomes, and oftentimes it includes death. Seriously... Death.

A pharmaceutical drug will always have side-effects.

Otherwise, there would be no justification for limiting public access to that drug, or any other prescription medication. This is what doctors do, they mitigate the side effects, balancing the risks with the benefits. It’s the negative side-effects of pharmaceuticals that necessitates their regulation, according to the legal justifications made thereto.

On the other hand, there are entire stores filled with non-pharmaceutical, nonFDA approved nutritional supplements, the potential negative side-effects of which are so negligible that they don’t bother regulating them at all. So, the fact that the FDA hasn’t added COVID 19 to the potential uses of HCQ is not a valid negation either. That’s a red herring argument.

Every drug, for every use, that’s ever been approved by the FDA was, at first, not approved for that use - and besides, the FDA did approve the offlabel use of HCQ, under a doctor’s

Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, Nobel Peace Prize nominee, board certified physician in the US, and first brought Hydroxychloroquine to President Trump’s attention.

Bio from his website: Dr. Zelenko graduated summa cum laude with a B.A. degree with high honors in Chemistry from Hofstra University.

After receiving an academic scholarship to attend S.U.N.Y. at Buffalo School of Medicine, he earned his M.D. degree in May 2000. Dr. Zelenko completed his family medicine residency at South Nassau Communities Hospital in Oceanside, N.Y. in May 2004.

Since then, Dr. Zelenko has practiced family medicine in New York’s Hudson Valley. He has been described by his patients as a family member to thousands of families, and is a medical adviser to the volunteer ambulance corps in Kiryas Joel, New York. In March 2020, Dr. Zelenko’s team was one of the first in the country to successfully treat thousands of Covid-19 patients in the prehospital setting.

Dr. Zelenko developed his now famous “Zelenko Protocol,” which has saved countless lives worldwide, while he was fighting recurrent and metastatic sarcoma, had open heart surgery, and aggressive chemotherapy. He has also persevered against unrelenting defamation of character from the media, and threats against his person.

Dr. Zelenko is an observant orthodox Jew, married with 8 children, and has authored two books called Metamorphosis and Essence to Essence.

Babe Ruth, iconic for predicting exactly where he would hit his famous home run, is memorialized in popular culture. Politicians, unlike Ruth, can rarely predict the outcomes of their efforts. Babe Ruth died at an early age from a rare form of cancer. Before his death, he was offered an experimental treatment for that cancer, which he received willfully, and with a full understanding that this treatment was an experiment. At first, the treatment seemed to really make a difference, with Ruth gaining weight and even starring in the 25th Anniversary event of Yankee Stadium. But, as is possible with any experimental treatment, Babe Ruth passed away shortly thereafter. He had a right to try it, but he also had a right to know the risks. Neither he nor his doctors were sure what would happen, but they were honest about that fact. What he did, taking that risk, calling his own shots, was a noble effort that benefited modern medicine.
