The 'Celebrating 50 Years of Fawlty Towers' @JohnCleese interview (hosted by The Bookshop in East Grinstead (@JohnPye7) was very special! I introduced him to @gemthetwit and told him all about our @montypython-themed wedding which he had not heard about. #OnceInALifetime 🤯🤩

BEFORE YOU BOARD YOUR NEXT FLIGHT READ THIS A former airline captain named John Hoyte reached out to me recently. He spent nearly 30 years flying commercial aircraft, developed serious neurological damage, lost his career, and has been trying to get this story properly investigated ever since. He sent me documents spanning two decades. The scale of what is in them is HUGE. What he shared includes parliamentary records, a 320-page published report from the British pilots union, @BBC coverage, House of Lords testimony, and active litigation in multiple countries. This has been heard at the highest levels. It has largely been buried. Most commercial jet aircraft use a system called bleed air. Instead of drawing fresh air from outside, the plane takes compressed air directly from the engines and pumps it into the cabin. That is the air you breathe for the entire flight. When engine seals wear down, oil and hydraulic fluid can leak into that air supply. Those fluids contain organophosphates, the same compounds found in certain pesticides and nerve agents. Inhaling them can cause neurological damage, memory loss, and chronic fatigue. In documented cases, far worse. This design has been in use since the 1950s. The health risk has been documented for just as long. In 2005, @BALPApilots, the British pilots union, published a full conference report on this with the University of New South Wales. The following year, 27 BALPA pilots were tested by University College London. All 27 showed evidence of toxic poisoning and reduced cognitive function. Not some of them. All of them. @BBCPanorama covered it in 2008. The House of Lords Science and Technology Committee heard evidence on it in 2007 and 2008. In February 2007, 40 unrelated passengers on a single XL Airways flight were seriously injured by contaminated cabin air. Their cases went to court. Twenty of them won a US jurisdiction ruling in 2010. A UK coroner recorded a death linked to this in 2015. France has formally recognised aerotoxic syndrome as an occupational disease. In the US, a law professor is suing Boeing for $40 million after a single exposure left him permanently injured. Morgan & Morgan, America's largest personal injury firm, is now actively taking mass cases on behalf of passengers and crew. John himself was one of those 27 pilots tested by UCL. He founded the Aerotoxic Association in 2007 at the Houses of Parliament to support other survivors. He has been fighting for this for nearly 20 years. Almost every commercial jet aircraft except the Boeing 787 Dreamliner uses the bleed air system. The 787 uses a different design that avoids this problem entirely. That safer design has existed for years. That fact alone says everything. BBC has not covered this story since 2020. The UK Civil Aviation Authority continues to say there is no positive evidence of a link. The Aerotoxic Association has been contacted by more than 2,500 people who believe they have been affected. John is looking for mainstream investigative journalists who want to dig deep into this. He is an expert witness with decades of evidence and is willing to answer every question. He has a passenger injured on that 2007 flight, Samantha Sabatino, whose case is in the parliamentary record. This is a genuine story of enormous public interest and it deserves proper investigation. If you are a journalist or researcher and want to speak to John directly, his contact details are in the comments. I will add media coverage links in the comments section.

🧵1/14 The systematic psychiatric drugging of women is part of a larger antihuman agenda. Targeting the very qualities that sustain life itself: female sensitivity, empathy, and emotional intelligence. And we're calling it "mental health treatment."

🤣

Millions of Americans take multiple psychiatric medications at the same time. Yet the safety and efficacy of these drugs in combination with one another have never been adequately studied, nor is there a strong evidence base for long-term use. At one point, I took five different psychiatric drugs simultaneously, completely unaware that I had effectively become part of an uncontrolled experiment. I am not anti-medication. I am pro-informed choice. And informed choice becomes impossible when people take multiple drugs as prescribed for years without first being told what’s known– and what’s not known– about the potential tradeoffs. @smerconish

Dr Thomas Szasz, Professor of Psychiatry, was an ardent and respected critic of his own profession. He said, "We have to have a term in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual in order to then call it a disease and treat it as a disease and write a prescription for it. "When I went to medical school, there were only 6 or 7 items in the manual. Now there are over 300. You mean to tell me that there have been 294 diagnoses, diseases discovered in the last 60 years? In psychiatry alone? It's a joke. "It's an epidemic of psychiatry that we're dealing with. We don't have an epidemic of mental illness. We have an epidemic of psychiatry." #mentalhealth #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #psychiatry

Billie was physically dragged by her hair at her child’s school after parents discovered she was a Scientologist. This was the human reality behind Germany’s anti-Scientology campaign. Now the surveillance ends without proving the threat it claimed existed.

The tools just innately handled everything, so I’ve never had an inkling to go back to use. This is not a process of recovering. This is a process of, I’m done. And you now live your life as “I’m not a drinker,” “I don’t do drugs,” and that’s it. narconon.ly/4k2FYTc
