We’re being told there’s an urgent public health necessity to censor vaccine misinformation.
What is this assumption based on? Who gets to decide what is “misinformation” and whether it should be censored?
These aren’t theoretical questions for the Organic Consumers Association. Read More
Despite our reticence and self-censorship, the Organic Consumers Association was put on a list of vaccine safety advocates that the House Energy & Commerce Committee has sent to Facebook, Google and Twitter, demanding our deplatforming.
We have a theory about how this hit list was compiled. The targeted vaccine safety advocates are all natural health practitioners and educators and supporters of organic food and farming. Read More
Has the unholy alliance between agribusiness and the pharmaceutical industry, exemplified by the Bayer-Monsanto merger, given these corporations an added incentive to team up to take out their biggest detractors?
That possibility occurred to us when, despite our reticence and self-censorship, the Organic Consumers Association was put on a hit list of vaccine safety advocates known as the “Disinformation Dozen.”

Vaccine mania is sweeping the nation. One cannot go a day without hearing about the COVID vaccine and the need for increased vaccination rates so “we can get back to normal.” However, since the COVID vaccine supply is now exceeding demand, it reveals that many people do not want the vaccine, and public health authorities are turning to more “coercive” incentives.
Media organizations are pressuring people to get the vaccine by name-calling, universities are requiring the COVID vaccine for those wanting to attend college, criminals are being Read More
On December 30, 2019, Dr. Li Wenliang sent a message to doctors in Wuhan warning them about a deadly disease outbreak and advising them to wear protective clothing to avoid infection. He was arrested by the Public Security Bureau. Dr. Li was released from detention on Jan. 3 after he was forced to sign a statement about "making false comments" that had "severely disturbed the social order".
The police document stated: ”We solemnly warn you: If you keep being stubborn, with such impertinence, and continue this illegal activity, you will be brought to Read More
There are proven and profitable agricultural practices that have the power to draw excess carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.
But, before agriculture can be a climate change solution, it has to deal with its own greenhouse gas pollution.
Synthetic fertilizers and factory farms must be phased out, while regenerative organic practices that sequester carbon are ramped up.
There’s certainly a lot of potential, especially on grasslands where ruminant animals can forage for the entirety of their lives instead of being fattened on synthetic- Read More
After almost 18 months since COVID-19 first came to international attention, and caused a global pandemic, no animal source of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has been found despite an enormous search effort.
Every proposed source such as the Wuhan Seafood Market, Pangolins, Bats, Snakes and processed food imported into China has been thoroughly discredited.
In Part 1 of this series, we looked at how vaccine passports create new inequalities in an already fractured society and raise moral dilemmas due to the inconvenient truth of vaccine injury.
Still, an important question remains: why is there a pervasive lack of questioning of the dilemmas posed by vaccine passports and the COVID response?
Given the magnitude of changes associated with the COVID response and the potential for harm by those changes, one would think there would be greater Read More
We all want to get back to normal. The Biden administration says we can “get back to normal by Christmas” if we get vaccination rates up. Critical to this plan is the adoption of the vaccine passport by the business community. The message of “getting back to normal” is an enticing one for a public tired of COVID restrictions. But we should take caution here.
During the pandemic, the government public health institutions promised us solutions that failed to meet expectations. Based on faulty Imperial College Read More
A national carbon farming program at the USDA level would be a tremendous leap forward with regards to incentivizing agricultural practices that can help mitigate climate change. However, the current primary focus on no-till and cover cropping is narrow in scope. While cover cropping is an extremely important and impactful agricultural practice, it is merely a part of a larger system needed to regenerate healthy soils on a nationwide basis.Read More
