Do You Want a Brain Implant Linking You to the Internet?

Paul Collier September 21, 2023

Elon Musk’s company Neuralink is ready to begin testing its product on humans after alleged burning through 1,500 test animals that all died as a result of the implants (which the Department of Agriculture investigated, then later gave the company an exemption to continue the experiments). Musk claims the test animals, monkeys, were all terminally ill, which is why they were chosen.

The product is ostensibly designed to help people overcome neurological disorders, including to help paralyzed people one day eventually walk again (by controlling machines with their thoughts that would then move their limbs). The company is looking for humans that are either quadriplegic or are suffering from ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).

The company’s blog said of the product, “The PRIME Study (short for Precise Robotically Implanted Brain-Computer Interface) – a groundbreaking investigational medical device trial for our fully-implantable, wireless brain-computer interface (BCI) – aims to evaluate the safety of our implant (N1) and surgical robot (R1) and assess the initial functionality of our BCI for enabling people with paralysis to control external devices with their thoughts.”

This product is designed to help people who have, for a variety of reasons, lost control of their muscles. The product will help them use thoughts to control computers which could control machines that could do anything from communicating with others to moving limbs. The study would last for 6 years.

More from the blog about the study intended to use humans, “During the study, the R1 Robot will be used to surgically place the N1 Implant’s ultra-fine and flexible threads in a region of the brain that controls movement intention. Once in place, the N1 Implant is cosmetically invisible and is intended to record and transmit brain signals wirelessly to an app that decodes movement intention. The initial goal of our BCI is to grant people the ability to control a computer cursor or keyboard using their thoughts alone.”

The device does connect to an external device, an app, so at the very least it connects to an intranet and could just as easily then be connected to an internet as well. It could also be used to let the user control computers with just a thought, so the mute might one day “speak”, or you might one day be able to play video games by “thinking,” giving you an advantage against the online normie gaming competitors that might be using their hands to play against you (which would be SOOOO 2023, amirite?).

Like our story on the artificial womb, we have a product that in and of itself could be a life-saving game changer for thousands of people, but it could also lead to devices that go far beyond aiding the paralyzed and neurologically damaged people to still be able to function as close to normal as possible, leading to all kinds of ethical and moral issues for society to wrestle over.

This writer is not in favor of the so-called singularity, where man and machine merge, but I am not opposed to using machines to augment human flourishing. Implanting your brain with a device that can be potentially hacked from the outside, however, seems to be loaded with risks this writer might be loathe to take. But if I were paralyzed, the risk might be outweighed by the potential increase in quality of life.

Would you, for instance, take the implant if it meant augmenting your intelligence and your drive so you can function like a driven genius, especially if everyone else around you was doing it? That might not be such an easy question to answer, but it’s one that might be worth asking now before we go too far down this brain implant path.

The dystopian nightmares that could flow from such devices might be great sci-fi movies, but they also might just be nightmares for a world living out the consequences on humanity such devices might create.

Research Shows People Experienced “Life After Death” During Heart Attacks

Paul Collier September 19, 2023

Researchers from NYU Grossman School of Medicine found that among patients who were clinically dead after a heart attack, but ultimately survived, 40 percent experienced consciousness while dead. The study involved patients from hospitals in the UK and America who suffered heart attacks that led to clinical death. About 10 percent of the 567 patients survived and were able to be released from the hospital. It is among this group that reports of consciousness during death was reported.

From sciencedaily.com:

The study also found that in a subset of these patients, who received brain monitoring, nearly 40% had brain activity that returned to normal, or nearly normal, from a “flatline” state, at points even an hour into CPR. As captured by EEG, a technology that records brain activity with electrodes, the patients saw spikes in the gamma, delta, theta, alpha, and beta waves associated with higher mental function.

The study authors theorize the “dying brain,” one that appears to have “flatlined,” loses what is called its natural inhibitory systems, or “braking” systems that allow the mind to focus on immediate, essential perceptions.

Senior study author Dr. Sam Parnia said of the study, “Although doctors have long thought that the brain suffers permanent damage about 10 minutes after the heart stops supplying it with oxygen, our work found that the brain can show signs of electrical recovery long into ongoing CPR. This is the first large study to show that these recollections and brain wave changes may be signs of universal, shared elements of so-called near-death experiences. These experiences provide a glimpse into a real, yet little understood dimension of human consciousness that becomes uncovered with death. The findings may also guide the design of new ways to restart the heart or prevent brain injuries and hold implications for transplantation.”

The study authors are staying away from the whole debate of whether there is life after death, rather they are focused on what the study can show that can lead to help people that are living.

Lab Creates Synthetic Human Embryo Without Fertilized Egg

Paul Collier September 15, 2023

The Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel has successfully created a synthetic human embryo without using a fertilized egg to do so. It is intended to allow embryo research that bypasses some ethical dilemmas. The synthetic embryo, according to lead research professor Jacob Hanna, has all the features and characteristics of a human embryo that is 14 days old, sans the living part. The synthetic embryo, according to lead research professor Jacob Hanna, has all the features and characteristics of a human embryo that is 14 days old, sans the living part.

The project is intended to help scientists understand the first month of human development, which is still, according to Hanna “largely a black box.” He said, “Our complete stem-cell derived human embryo model offers an ethical and accessible way of peering into this box.”

From Discover Magazine: “An embryo is self-driven by definition,” said Hanna. “We don’t need to tell it what to do. We must only unleash its internally encoded potential.”

He dubbed the structures “stem cell-based complete embryo-like structures (SEMs)” and fostered their development for eight days, until they had reached the equivalent of 14 days of normal development. Along the way, his team found that the SEMs bore a close resemblance to the embryos illustrated in classical embryology atlases from the 1960s.

“Every compartment and supporting structure was not only there but in the right place, size and shape,” the statement said.

The project could help researchers bypass a looming controversy in embryonic research, when to continue to use actual human embryos for research purposes. Right now, the standard is to not use embryos beyond 14 days, The International Society for Stem Cell Research recently announced it would consider going beyond the 14-day limit and invited scientists to have a debate about what a new, longer standard might be.

CDC Pushes for Yearly Covid-19 “Booster” Shots for Children as Young as 6 Months

CDC Pushes for Yearly Covid-19 “Booster” Shots for Children as Young as 6 Months

Freedomist Editor September 13, 2023

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC), a branch of the Federal government that has been entirely infested with anti-American revolutionaries, is issuing recommendations for toddlers to get Covid-19 vaccines yearly, which might give DNC-CCP polluted public schools the “justification” to make Covid-19 vaccines mandatory for all students.

The CDC Stated: CDC recommends everyone 6 months and older get an updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect against the potentially serious outcomes of COVID-19 illness this fall and winter. Updated COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna will be available later this week.

Vaccination remains the best protection against COVID-19-related hospitalization and death. Vaccination also reduces your chance of suffering the effects of Long COVID, which can develop during or following acute infection and last for an extended duration.  If you have not received a COVID-19 vaccine in the past 2 months, get an updated COVID-19 vaccine to protect yourself this fall and winter.

The recommendation flies in the face of reason as more evidence mounts that the vaccines don’t actually prevent infection, and might actually make one more likely to catch the virus rather than protect against it.

Americans who choose to use wildly experimental, untested drugs on their children are playing Russian Roulette with their children’s lives with limited, if any, good benefits for doing so. This seems more like a money-grab for the big pharma corporations who seem to have more influence with the government than the voters do.

HHS Tooling Up for Covid-19 Shutdown Redux?

HHS Tooling Up for Covid-19 Shutdown Redux?

Paul Collier August 29, 2023

The Health and Human Services Department might be telegraphing when the DNC-CCP will attempt to shut down America and transfer more wealth from the bottom to their top billionaire funders (mostly foreigners) when they listed federal contracts for “Covid-19 responses which are intended to start this September and conclude in 2025, just after the November election.

Expect another shutdown and another national mass mailer election from the DNC-CCP, and expect no help from our own courts, who revealed their collusion with the revolutionary anti-American party when they refused to even hear cases that challenged the constitutionality of mass mailer elections.

The contract pays over $1.8 million, but could be worth as much as $4.1 million by March 2025. The contract specifically focuses on the “coordination of response to public health emergencies…and surveillance.”

They are looking for a firm willing to do the fascist work the state cannot directly do in a tactic we are all too familiar with at this point. They will want a seditious company that has no regard for American rule of Law to develop strategies to terrorize Americans and convince them that the robbing of their lives and livelihoods, the surveilling of their private affairs, is what is needed to protect them from yet another made-up monster that, if real, would only be real because they themselves created it.

First Robot-Run Liver Transplant Happened

First Robot-Run Liver Transplant Happened

Freedomist Editor July 21, 2023

Washington University of St. Louis and Barnes-Jewish Hospital performed the first successful liver transplant surgery primarily using robots to perform the operation. Dr. Adeel Khan was the lead surgeon on the team, which was executed at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis. The surgery took about 8 hours to complete, which is within the average time humans conduct the surgery (6-10 hours) but was a lot less invasive, which will hopefully dramatically increase patient survivability after surgery.

From Techexplorist.com:

Traditionally, a surgeon would make a 3- to 4-inch vertical and 12- to 16-inch horizontal incision just below the rib cage to remove a patient’s diseased liver and place the healthy donated liver. During the surgery to remove them, diseased livers are prone to excessive bleeding. Also, attaching the new liver to the patient’s circulatory system requires delicately sewing several tiny blood vessels together. This is why it had been thought to be too difficult to perform in a less invasive manner.

Robotic surgeries are a kind of minimally invasive surgery. During this successful robotic liver transplant, the surgeons operated through several half-inch keyhole incisions and made a single 6-inch vertical incision between the abdominal muscles to remove the diseased organ and place the new liver.

Khan reported, “The transplant was a success: The operation went smoothly, the new liver started working right away, and the patient recovered without any surgical complications.”

Even though the surgery took about the same amount of time as traditional surgery, the team believes they can reduce the time significantly as they get used to the new parameters of robot-assisted surgeries.

The Plan in the Covid-19 Plandemic Laid Bare in Buried NYTimes Paragraph

The Plan in the Covid-19 Plandemic Laid Bare in Buried NYTimes Paragraph

Paul Collier July 20, 2023

On the 17^th paragraph of a NY Times newsletter called “A Positive Covid Milestone” the truth about the over-bloated Covid-19 death numbers has finally been released. That paragraph read:

The official number is probably an exaggeration because it includes some people who had virus when they died even though it was not the underlying cause of death. Other C.D.C. data suggests that almost one-third of official recent Covid deaths have fallen into this category. A study published in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases came to similar conclusions.

The initial response by the NYTimes to then-President Trump’s claims the Covid-19 numbers were bloated shows how the DNC-CCP agit prop organ was willing to protect damaging lies that were used to justify draconian shutdowns of human society for the sake of the Democratic Party’s chances to win in 2020.

From the NYTimes:

Last Friday, Mr. Trump told reporters that he accepted the current death toll, but that the figures could be “lower than” the official count, which now totals nearly 95,000.

Most statisticians and public health experts say he is wrong; the death toll is probably far higher than what is publicly known. … Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, told lawmakers this month that the overall toll was likely an undercount. “I don’t know exactly what percent higher but almost certainly it is higher[.]”

Potifact called Trump’s claim “pants on fire.” Anthony Fauci called it a conspiracy theory. Social media companies run by DNC-CCP revolutionaries censored posts making that claim and banned users who dared share that belief. H/T Breitbart

The greatest crime of the 21^st century will most likely be the plandemic run and operated by the DNC and the CCP in an effort to end the common threat to both their dystopian fantasies, the American republic.

Finally, The DNC Stops Funding the Wuhan Lab

Finally, The DNC Stops Funding the Wuhan Lab

Freedomist Editor July 20, 2023

The Biden Administration has announced it will no longer fund the lab run by the Chinese Communist Party, the Wuhan Lab, which is suspected to be the source of Covid-19. Under Dr. Anthony Fauci, the lab has received at least $600,000 from American taxpayers.

A statement from the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) made it just about clear this suspicion is true; “There is risk that [the Wuhan institute] not only previously violated, but is currently violating, and will continue to violate, protocols of the NIH on biosafety. The immediate suspension of [the institute] is necessary to mitigate any potential public health risk.”

Once they blocked us from expressing the theory the Covid-19 virus came from a lab in China. Then they finally conceded “maybe” that’s actually what happened. Perhaps the fact the U.S under Covid-19 Plandemic Doctor Fauci’s direction funded the lab and its research into Covid had something to do with that. That was back in 2016.

After all we know (which most of us knew back in 2020), the Biden administration has FINALLY announced plans to stop funding the lab that most likely engineered and released a virus that led to a mass mailer election coup, millions of deaths, and the greatest transfer of wealth to the top in human history.

One group that seems to have helped engineer a more communicable version of coronavirus, however, continues to get funding. That group is EcoHealth, which continues to receive funding despite most likely committing mass genocide and international economic sabotage at a scale that Hitler, Stalin, and Mao would blush at.

Printing Human Organs With a Handheld Device?

Freedomist Editor July 14, 2023

Researchers from the University of Victoria in Canada have developed a handheld on-site bioprinter that is capable of printing complex “biocompatible structures.” The device is the first of its kind that can not only print complex structures but can do it on-site. Potential applications could include printing structures used for breast implants for breast reduction surgery breast cancer patients need.

One researcher from the team, Associate Professor Mohsen Akbari said in a press release, “Two decades ago, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, which eventually led to the removal of her breast. This affected her well-being considerably. It made me realize that a technology like handheld bioprinting could not only help develop personalized implants for breast reconstruction that match the shape and size of the patient’s tissue, but also be used to create tumor models for the study of breast cancer biology. Such applications could significantly improve treatment outcomes for affected patients.”

From studyfinds.org:

“The standout feature of this handheld device is its multiple bio ink cartridges, each controlled independently by a pneumatic system. This level of control empowers operators to develop structures with the desired properties. The device also includes a cooling module and a light-emitting diode photocuring module, adding further control and versatility.”

Scientists Lied About Covid-19 Origins Over Fear of China

Scientists Lied About Covid-19 Origins Over Fear of China

Freedomist Editor July 13, 2023

U.S. House Republicans are uncovering a paper trail from scientists around the world in the early months of Covid-19 who all seemed ready to investigate whether the plandemic virus came from a Wuhan lab in China until they thought about the fear of upsetting their masters, the Chinese Communist Party. One such exchange was exposed in the Daily Mail which shows University of Edinburgh biologist Dr. Andrew Rambaut expressing fears of even suggesting the virus was accidently released from a Chinese lab, saying it would cause a “political s#$t show.”

Knowing the origins of a virus is crucial to understanding how to potentially treat patients fighting the virus, but the world medical establishment, including the U.S., all felt allowing the world to fly blind in fighting a virus that killed tens of millions worldwide rather than upset their de facto Chinese masters. As the saying goes, if you want to know who the real power is, find out who you cannot question or doubt. In America and much of the West, it seems China is at the top of that list, with anyone not white, “cis”-gendered, heterosexual, or binary being a close second.
