NUDGE DENIALISM: Why are the state’s psychological experts distancing themselves from behavioural science?

The state’s reliance on behavioural science strategies – ‘nudges’ – to facilitate the public’s compliance with covid restrictions has been widely documented. The many psychologists and behavioural scientists advising the government during the covid event (such as those in the SAGE subgroup, SPI-B, and the Behavioural Insight Team, BIT ) have, reasonably, been assumed to hold a significant degree of responsibility for using these methods of persuasion in communication campaigns

The Mysterious Case of the Disappearing Remote Control

Dr Mike Yeadon was unable to attend the event, but had provided a pre-recorded testimony. As it transpired, his address could not be played due to ‘technical difficulties’. It arrived safely on a laptop, but Andrew Bridgen announced that we were not able to hear it because ‘the television had been muted and they did not have the remote control’. As ‘the dog ate my homework’ excuses go, this one was pretty poor. Couldn’t one of the many people there to help have popped out to ask a staffer to find a remote?

Thou Shalt Not Question Big Pharma

Maryanne Demasi presented a depressing historical account of the reach of Big Pharma in an era well before covid when she was speaking at the recent Australians for Science and Freedom conference at the University of New South Wales, Sydney. Maryanne is an investigative journalist with a background of health research and has been a regular writer for the BMJ.

Interpreting BBC Dialect(ic)s

The BBC – the UK’s state broadcaster – has a little-known motto that still adorns the organisation’s coat of arms: “Nation Shall Speak Peace Unto Nation”.  There is circumstantial evidence to suggest that this phrase was inspired by a quotation from the Old Testament: “Nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more” (Micah 4:3).

Seven Deadly Sins, A Review

In an effort to shine light on the censorship complex, HART – and others – have been exploring how the truth gets suppressed.  It seems that despite the aphorism that the “Truth will out”, untruths & lies seem to be remarkably resilient. And as was so amply demonstrated following the unwinding of the apartheid regime, without truth, there is little hope of reconciliation.

How do we halt the march of health & climate fascism?

Imagine living in a world devoid of individual freedoms and basic human rights, where each person’s behaviour, speech and (even) thoughts are determined by the state. A world characterised by ubiquitous surveillance and ensuing censorship of any action or utterance that deviates from the regime’s version of the ‘greater good’, where martial law can be imposed at the whim of unelected bureaucrats under the pretence of keeping us all ‘safe’.

MHRA Twitter blocking spree

The Perseus Report was written to raise awareness about the failure of MHRA to apply proper due diligence to the approval of covid vaccines,  the significant harm caused and the risk that permanent changes to approval processes could cause further injuries and deaths from other medicines. The Perseus Group sent our report to MPs and MHRA themselves, so far we have had no response from MHRA or the Government.

Atlantic Musings: A Very Heartfelt Mea Culpa

The Atlantic.  What does this phrase conjure up in your mind?  Splashing about in the sea in Cornwall?  Worries about the direction of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation? 

As of autumn 2022, add another: Professor Emily Oster’s now infamous “Let’s Forget About The Beastly Things We Did During Covid And Just Be Friends” article was, of course, published in The Atlantic.

How HART was discredited on no basis

In summer 2021, the private messaging forum that HART used was illegally hacked and our private conversations downloaded. Within 24 hours we were contacted by a small company called Logically AI who told us they were going to publish the conversations. This small company had a contract with the government worth over a million pounds of taxpayer’s money.

Self-censorship is rife

Given HART’s experiences on the receiving end of the Censorship Industrial Complex, we give a great deal of thought on a weekly basis as to what we may and may not say and write. We know that some of what we would like to put into the public domain would see us fall foul of external censorship; powerful vested interests can ensure we are not heard.

Conspiracy Theory + Time = Truth

It strikes us that there is this apocryphal idea in the minds of many that proven conspiracies have only happened in the dim and distant past. This is a very bizarre position to hold. What it supposes is that for centuries there has been clear evidence of deep state corruption within governments and secret government agencies, but somehow that just suddenly stopped a mere moment ago. Nowadays, the fairytale goes that mummy and daddy government in the civilised West would never do anything to harm its citizens. Ever.

Dismissed!

There are plenty of examples in history of individuals who have been brilliant on one topic and controversial on another. Take Marie Curie; a ‘nerd’s nerd who broke the law for knowledge’. A veritable boundary rider, she went on to win 2 Nobel prizes for her scientific discoveries, but also enjoyed a good seance and slept with vials of Radium by her bed because it was ‘pretty’ (a habit that no doubt contributed to her eventual death from aplastic pernicious anaemia). We don’t however dismiss her entire body of scientific work because she dabbled in a bit of witchcraft or didn’t fully understand the dangers of radioactivity.
