Eric,

I am listening to the beginning of your Friday evening broadcast. Those who tell you to pull back your statements on covid subvert the very principles of democracy which has upheld discussion of the views of public figures! Isn't that what debates are about whether on TV or across the fence with our neighbors? And they are telling you that you have no right to discuss RFK's policies? Then I have no right to discuss Biden's, De Sanitis's, or my own goverenor's. I am steamed. I would toss each and every one of them off my lists for even suggesting such an undemocratic thing in this, a "free" society. It scares me that if RFK does get elected these freakshows will come after you with the full sanction of their God, himself. So much for free speech.

Thanks for bearing with my rant.

Well said, Via email.

It's a shame everyone's not steamed. We should all be properly appalled.

About half way through. TOTALLY ON SPOT re the 3 people who have been your guests now having the chutzpah to tell you to stop criticizing public figures on behalf of some "unity" behind a perspective based upon DISINFORMATION. Particularly from a "Professor of Propaganda."

I myself got a lot of flack this past week from CHD loyalists on my Facebook page for revealing that two months ago CHD hired corporate consultant Andrew Pek, whose client list includes Pfizer, Johnson and Johnson and Bayer, as well as a bunch of financial firms involved in social impact investing/pay for success finance, i.e. 4IR, to be its Chief Operating Officer, but its operatives have been trying to scrub this information from wherever it's been posted, didn't succeed before stuff got archived. I was accused of ruining "a good man" on behalf of "petty concerns."

Right, like truth and accountability. With you all the way on this matter, Eric!

If telling the truth is what ruins a good man, the man wasn't that good to begin with. I can't believe these people are demanding that other's stop thinking, asking questions, pointing out facts, and requesting accountability.

Wait. Sure I can believe it. Welcome to the Twenty First Century, where authoritarian tendencies are normal and marching lockstep behind the current "chosen one" is the only thing allowed.

Wait again! That happened in the Twentieth Century too. Sig Heil!

Though Nazi Germany was not the only such case.

Not at all. The students beating their teachers to death in front of roaring crowds in China also comes to mind, as well as so many others. Too many others. You'd think humans would learn from history, but we seem unable to do so.

People don't seem to learn what they need to know..... until they do.

Oh boy, I'll bet this will be a doozy. I'm wondering how far you will take this, how much you are going to reveal. You seem to be able to push acceptable boundaries farther than almost anyone. You tell radical truth, without hurting feelings. I'll be listening...

There is no safe vaccine, period. There will never BE a safe vaccine. End of discussion.

Did any of ya'll see RFK Jr on Russell Brand's Rumble show this week? I have watched about 3/4 of it, but must admit haven't finished the whole thing. It is quite astounding and also rather mesmerizing. In response to Russell's question about the pandemic he misspeaks right out of the gate and starts his response with the statement "the pandemic was misused". I am sure he mean to say mismanaged, or some variation of that, and yet the phrase was "misused". Hm.

Russell can pack too much in a question, so there are some interesting things he throws out to Bobby that never get addressed, like how does a person/family like the Kennedys get so much power and status without being implicitly corrupt themselves. Bobby launches into monologue after monologue propping up the lore and glamour of the Kennedy family. It is "amazing" how many details he recalls from being a ten year old. I really do WANT to like him! He says some great stuff that so many other candidates won't even TOUCH that are true: the corruption of the medical and military industrial complexes, the CIA and the surveillance state- but this lab leak stuff is just bat shit! NO PROOF FOR HOW A VIRUS COULD EVEN "LEAK" FROM ONE IF THESE PLACES! NONE! One of the other interesting things he threw out I haven't heard before was that there has been a "bio weapon arms race"? WTF?

Yeah...it would be nice to "like" a political figure one of these days, so I know what you mean.

Sadly, RFK Jr has always come off as slimy to me. Maybe it's the lawyer vibe?

The comment I referenced about the "bio weapons arms race" is at about 52 minutes. The whole thing is astounding, really.

Thank you Eric Coppolino from a keen listener in OZ 🕯

Good for you, Eric! I've heard and seen some of the spat going on and think i know at least one of the persons you are talking about. 

Kudos to you, i share your skepticism with this crew, steering at its finest!

Yes, I look forward to listening to this most recent planet waves program! I can already tell from the comments that it is another juicy one!

Expand full comment

I dunno Eric. Maybe your experience was different. But the person who stirred up all the crap by forwarding emails never mentioned RFK Jr. to me. The impetus seemed to be my sending out the tweet of Jerm Warfare calling the No Virus people a "woke cult who offer nothing constructive other than arrogantly positioning themselves as arbiters of truth." Suddenly I'm the bad person for sharing the shitty thing Jerm said about US, about HIS OWN AUDIENCE. About the audience of the leaders of #TeamNoVirus, and their followers. But Jerm? He's cool by us! Huston? He's gotta go. FML

There have been several different things happening. However, as you know, I am sensitive to being on message with the potentially controversial ideas we are handling, and also maintaining awareness of the spiritual impact that all of this has on people.

I have lots of roosters, though I'm not a Cancer. Dang.

Good grief...most of that stuff gave me a headache, but the rest made me laugh. That sounded like a pile of puked up word salad. You're brave, Eric to sift through it to find the tomatoes! I hope you washed up afterwards. Yikes. lol

Listened to the last hour-plus. Funny discussion of astrology-writing AI.. An excellent discussion with Iva Veazy about sexuality and Betty Dotson, including the topics of Wilhelm Reich and the relation between sexual repression and fascism, female ejaculation and the G spot, and polyamory. The last one is a great idea.... for those who can make it happen. Many people simple can't, just don't have the opportunity, the experience,........ And loved the Henno ( :-) original spelling of the name "Eno") music.

Please forgive my tardiness! I've not even listened to the Wednesday weekly yet. Between the wild, Oklahoma weather, my garden, and these six perfect little purring furballs, I've had exactly zero me time since last Friday night.

Thankfully, Jack, my love knows there was no way in hell I was "going out" for Mother's Day and brought home 8 pounds of Snow Crab legs for me to steam up tomorrow! I'm going to whip up a cold oven cake later, but for now, I'mma set here with a lap full of kittens and listen to what is most certainly going to be a damn fine show!

Thanks in advance, Eric!

Oh goodness. It's taken me three hours to get to the hour and five mark, but that was because I listened to the astrology twice and played with my pile of pussy...

cats.

Ha!

Anywhos. I'm so sick of this ridiculous mindset that demands you think exactly the same on every single subject or you're not on "the team" or worse, are hurting the team you're not even "on". I'm a very individualistic person who's never been good at following the pack and in this day and age, that makes me NOT a team player.

I'm really glad people who are able to have valid opinions and keep them despite it all have a voice through you, Eric. You rock.

Roger, you're not anything about your observations. You've chimed in quite a bit on Celia's website. Please commit to a position and let's discuss if it works.

People lie. Politicians lie. It is built in to the context of playing the "game". We don't have to "judge" it, we just have to notice what people say and what they do and make our choices from there.

I also feel like pointing these things out is paramount to getting out of this paradigm that "politicians lie" BS we have come to accept as "just how it is". I don't wanna accept it anymore either, Coppolino.

Taking this further, noticing and commenting on the conflict between a person's stated intention and their actions isn't defamation or smearing, it is reporting and observing. That is a major barrier to having productive conversations these days, especially: the emotional attachment to outcomes or ideology based on belief, not observation, is what hijacks dialogue and real consideration. Obviously, you can get in the rabbit hole about subjectivity and objectivity here too- but isn't that what a discussion is for? This is what I see? What do you see? I mean, that is part of the theoretical basis for why the scientific method should work too, right? The hard part is suspending belief and judgement. Also, suspending judgement doesn't mean there is not a right thing to do! It could get complicated depending on the context, and like Coppolino pointed out, context is meaning. Can't wait for that article!

can you give me your definition of polylogism?

No two people reason alike, much less groups; groups are also driven by group dynamics, which wholly transcend reason. The best we can do is get people to follow along, or teach them if they want to learn, and that is generally more rhetoric than logic.

The scientific method is a tool for exploring the world.

Science never is certain of anything. Everything is basically "our best guess, based on these observations and the best theoretical framework we have available today".

Science can't provide value judgements.

e.g., "Is Fracking Good or Bad?" Science is useless at answering that.

The Scientific method has a rather limited domain of applicability.

Science cannot explain consciousness. "The Hard Problem". Science cannot deal with one time events, massive objects, long distances or time scales, tiny objects, events in the past, ontological questions, matters dealing with human emotions, meaning, or quality of being, Whether God exits: Science is useless for all of this.

Science is also not a popularity contest. Science is not ruled by consensus.

Now one could argue that PRACTICALLY it is, but the truth is the truth even if no one agrees.

I've met him. He is brittle, he seems scared and fragile, and he has no personal presence. He seemed more intimated by me than any public figure I've ever met. Few of them ever are. It was very strange. He was practically shaking when I came over to his table at dinner. He did NOT want me there. There is nothing charming about him. He avoids people rather than engages with them. He dodges eye contact. He does not even say thank you.

I get a strong fear vibe from him too. From his body language.

And that was not my only encounter with him; we have been engaging him and CHD and many of its minions for the past 13 months. It's always the same. The meeting was at a $1500 a plate fundraising dinner and followed a very successful $100 a seat talk and Q & A. He should have been at his best.

The modern planets do not "rule" anything. The rulers are codified in the Thema Mundi and the Table of Essential Dignities. The modern planets are another matter entirely.
