How a Monster Is Born: Manufacturing of Obedience
Analysis by Tessa Lena

A “remarkable” video of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. talking with MSNBC in 2005 shows Joe Scarborough agreeing with him on vaccines
In 2003, The Sydney Morning Herald issued a condemnation of business using fear of contagion to sell “farce masks”
In 2003, Fauci said that that Americans would not accept country-wise vaccinations; in March 2020, he compared COVID to bad flu
