The Big Picture of Extraordinary Evil in 428 Words
By Jeffrey A. Tucker, as published by Brownstone Institute on 18 June 2026
Life seemed to be going along pretty normally when the third month of 2020 hit and all our lives, and the lives of billions around the world, were thrown into upheaval. We’ve spent the last six years trying to figure it out, and so have many others.
The revelations are flying fast and furious, so much that we can hardly keep up. We have meetings, groups, publications, phone calls and share as many links and data points as we can. No matter what we do, the big story continues to be elusive.
There are two reasons for this. First, the national media do not care. It happened. It’s over. We survived. Who cares? Second, the reality is literally incomprehensible. Too many data points. Too many institutions. Too many motivations. They all flew into motion at once. Separating prime from second movers is impossible.
Those who try to make sense of it all come across like conspiracy theorists at best and babbling lunatics at worst. I don’t like to sound this way. But every time I try to present what I know in a calm, rational, wholly reasonable way, I sense that I’m not capturing the fullness of it all.
What I’ve attempted below is my best undertaking at reconstruction. It has no links, so I invite you to use the AI tool on [Brownstone’s] website that has been trained by 4,000-plus site records and countless numbers of outside links.
If it sounds implausible, I can only assure you that it is not. You might know more than I do and could write something better. If so, drop me an email and we might publish a compendium. The goal is short (no longer than 500 words), evocative, comprehensive, no exaggerations and verifiably accurate.
Here is my own attempt.
In 2019 or before, a US-funded biolab in Wuhan, China, one of some 120 in 30 countries, made a virus and inoculation based on an American recipe that leaked and spread, causing worry that US/UK officials would be blamed. They formulated a well-rehearsed fallback: lie about the laboratory origins and prepare the population for the antidote based on a new gene-editing technology that otherwise would never have been approved on grounds that it was too dangerous and not effective. That scheme could turn would-be villains into saviours.
That required buying time while preserving pre-leak immunity profiles of the population via lockdowns for nine months until the injection was put through perfunctory trials and available; hence the travel restrictions, stay-at-home orders, masks, distancing, and cancelled events.
During this time, there had to be mass censorship of people who caught on, a manufactured panic, widespread trauma, school closures, a removal of other therapeutic options, millions of business failures, a shutdown of the arts and religious practice, plus various technical manipulations along the way like redefining exposures as cases, running PCR tests at high cycle rates and paying for death misclassifications. This was essentially cosplaying a level of severity that did not exist – despite inevitably rising seroprevalence and natural immunity – in order to ramp up demand for the incoming pharmaceutical product.
There was also a political coattail rider: infectious disease panic enabled a new experiment in mail-in ballots, encouraged by the CDC even before the lockdowns began, thus unleashing mass ballot fraud designed to defeat the rise of populism in all countries and creating conditions for closer citizen surveillance and digital identification systems necessitating mass data centres.
The scheme also required a printing/spending binge to paper over vast economic damage, policies that would hack off a third of the value of the dollar, leaving vast carnage, but permitting an indemnified pharmaceutical experiment on the whole population, meaning that mass injury would have no recourse in law. When the injection finally appeared, uptake was too low to create the expected profit windfall, plus government had a surplus it needed to dump before expiration, thus triggering urban segregation in five major US cities plus mandates for millions enforced on pain of losing their jobs.
The entire time, most of academia, corporate America and major media played along for reasons of careerism and also overt and implicit threats from Deep-State actors to do their part lest they prolong the pandemic they created. No one has been punished for any of it, and the mainstream corporate media has no interest at this late date.
That’s my version. It comes in at 428 words and covers the high points of what can be verified.
What’s your version? Write me.

I knew about the covid scam over 15 years ago and warned people years before it came out. I told all my family and friends but to no avail, they all thought I was mad and took the jab anyway. My Brothers wife and her sisters have all had cancer since taking the shots and my wife is suspected of having bowel cancer. Many of my friends have died since and i was banned from FB for talking about it. I was actually banned for asking why was Andrew Bridgend banned and kicked out of the commons just for asking a question about the excess deaths since the roll out of the jabs. I said on FB that the commons was built for you to ask question and debate things so why did none of the other MPs stick up for him. Is it now true that you can only ask certain question in the house of commons and who determines what you can ask? If its the government that determines what you can ask then we are no longer a democracy but a dictatorship. With that about 1 minuet later I was banned from FB.
Democracy is just a front to keep the natives happy, once the fraud of citizenship is exposed there is no going back.
Hi John Cox,
At least you tried to save people.
It was the same with me, some listened some never.
I tried to tell them about the Spanish Flu, that had nothing to do with Spain.
It was the same propaganda, down to the Saving Grandma sketch.
Keep up the good work, Dave.
Sorry about your family. The COVID vaccine can also alter moods. At 67, I managed to get a Pyschologist through a scheme called the NDIS for free. A female doctor visited my flat and on the very first one announced that she got 5 vaccinations to protect her clients. My heart sank because I am a Pureblood. No vaccines since I left school unless my Mum had me get them. As I am wheelchair bound NDIS also supplied me with a couple of support workers. They would do my laundry, some housework, and socialise with me. I could shower and cook for myself.On the 4th visit the doctor exclaimed that I needed to go into a home. A little taken aback I did not answer back answer back straight away. Thinking I did not hear her the woman shouted You belong in a home. Seated on a couch I calmly said I think you better leave. Scowling the doctor huffed and puffed moving to my front door. I found out from my NDIS corordinator later that day that the doctor rang her and spoke like a crazy woman. I apoligise formy spelling mistake as I am nearly 70 now. My support workers who sadly got two shots and I warn everyone we can not to get a vaccine.
You can take a horse to water…….
I still find it odd that so many people who are clever and sensible in most aspects of their lives fall prey to such plain and obvious lies, deceits and downright evil of their governments.
Maybe they are rule followers ?
it’s a dictatorship paid for by the richest entities in the world.
There are one or two serious doctors and investigative journalists who claim that viruses do not exist and that the corona virus was not isolated and purified. There are many others who claim that they do exist.
Where is the truth?
The existence of viruses is secondary to the use of contrived epidemics to impoverish and enslave.
I’m guessing the risk of some limited nuclear exchange is increased by the fact that fewer and fewer folk seem convinced by the vaccine twaddle.
Just check it yourself, you don’t need to be a doctor to understand any isolation process, you need only common sense, pick one, doesn’t matter which one, back then I picked the CDC’s Sars-Cov2. The process is fraudulent since the beginning, they never isolate a thing but give more genetic material to their sample which is also genetic material, this way day get a mix to ‘breed’ but they poison these cells coming from you, cow, monkey with antibiotics and starve them. When the cells die, they happily let you know that they isolated the virus which in reality is just cell debris and never ever caused a thing to anyone but the actual illness.
I knew immediately what this was. I heard over 20 years ago that “they” were hell-bent on an adult “vaccine” schedule. I was warning people from the get go that if they wore the diaper, if they took the test, if they locked themselves down, if they gave up their freedom because they were “forced” to, if they would rather embrace tyranny than cancel a flight or cruise, that the only thing left was a nice new “vaccine”. Well, here we are.
Unfortunately, I have a sick feeling that most of the people who went along with this the first time would go along with it when it happens again.
Imagine how much differently things would have been if half of the employees at a business just told the boss to go F themselves? Imagine if people wouldn’t have been saying, “oh come on, it’s just a mask?” (um.. no it *wasn’t* “just a flipping mask!!”) Imagine if every person that went along with medical tyranny because they just “had to” get on a flight or take a cruise, cancelled and said they were not participating? Imagine if people who were told they “couldn’t” visit a sick loved one unless they got the shot just went to visit anyway… *with a group* of people with courage?
This crap would have been shut down almost immediately. If the public would have just shown a tiny bit of courage.
I’m sorry, there is a lot of blame to go around at the top. But there’s a whole hell of a lot of blame to place on the collaborators and compliers. In fact, more blame.
I know how you feel Rob: Osama bin Laden’s view that the West was soft and ripe for gutting seems uncomfortably accurate but Prof. Mattias Desmet offers the best explanation I’ve read as to what’s really happening and where ‘blame’ lies and how few heros and heroines are truly innocent. Notwithstanding that, it is clear that the biggest crime against humanity was organised by a very select, evil minority and enabled by the craven majority of politicians, academics, medical professionals and the media.
There may be different levels of hellfire for these.
Stay dangerous!
I’ve been known it since 2014 when a wrong batch taught me to better to educate myself.
There are no viruses, the germ theory is a fake. If you wish to understand life and health, RESEARCH mikrozymas (they have plenty of other names as whoever researched gave a new name like somatids, bions, precursors and more).
There is NO DNA, it is just a concept, a theory, but there are microzymas (visible under dark oil condenser microscopes) who are the CODE OF LIFE, who are behind inheritance, your health or when you over they decompose you.
Dr Marizelle Arce: Germs are not our enemises -who understand microzymas understand life.
At first we didn’t know what to believe, but around March 2020, the narrative started to show cracks. The Wuhan bat story just didn’t make sense, and I applied for a mask exemption; which I got. From that point on, I never wore a mask, I refused to take a PCR test, and I continued to drive my car beyond the five kilometer range we were restricted to. In writing this, I can’t believe we ever put up with that.
The corporate media were totally on board, and we even had the ridiculous scenes of people disinfecting parking meters in broad daylight! Fear was the new oxygen, and OUR Government used it to great effect. Ultimately, Melbourne Australia would we awarded the odious title of being the most locked down city in the Western World.
So much to write about on this dark chapter, and so much has been written, yet the illusive truth is just that, still illusive to many. The lies, deception and narrative have been muted, but still omnipresent.
The good news is that many people have woken up, are still waking up, and no longer trust the Governments and authorities that deceived them.
I and many others refused to get the bio weapon even though our huge company we work for tried to BULLY us into taking it by threat of being fired. many of us stood our ground. Most people I know that took the bio weapon got extremely sick at best and some died at worst. Yet NO ONE who refused the bio weapon became ill.
At the assisted living facility where my mother lives, they still put on masks when some are getting ill and call it covid, which is probably correct because most got the bio weapon. This is insane. The masks don’t work, and if all the workers had to take the bio weapon, should they not be immune? After all that has been revealed about this huge scamdemic, the insanity continues.
Be HARD TO KILL!!!!!
This is without mentioning:
The depopulation strategy (deaths, infertility and injuries).
The implementation of nanobots in humanity.
The quest, of the elites, for full control over a small population that they have turned into controllable transhumans.
5G towers went up all over the world during lock downs. These 5G towers emit EMF which will be used and has been used to switch on the injected nanobots in humans.
Surveillance cameras went up in record time and numbers all over the world, mostly during lock downs. Some of these surveillance cameras have installed direct energy weapon (DEW), which can be deployed on civilians to kill and injure as well as switching on the nanobots.
QR codes were required as proof of vaccine status, to connect us to their tacking.
Testing how much tyranny we would accept for future reference.
Britta, connecting the dots,,,,,,,,,, follow the crumbs.
covid was and is ACURE IRRADIATION (from wireless stuff), top comment!

From Poland.
The media is not reporting on the US Senate Hearing where a lot of truth about the scamdemic and the clots shots is coming out. Dr. John Campbell is reporting on it.
https://www.youtube.com/@Campbellteaching/videos
However the Senate is also hearing from people I regard as cover up agents. See his “Vaccine Lies”video. At 3m 50s – does the mRNA stay in the arm as we were told it does? See how an expert refuses to answer that question. See her squirm. She says, “I can’t reliably comment on that”. In my opinion, what she means is that she won’t say because she does not not want to tell the truth, nor does she want to leave herself open to criminal charges by lying. See how the questioning went on.

Prof. Angus Dalgleish gave evidence at the US Senate hearing, see his interview with Dr. John Campbell. Here he is in another interview.

I was a 25 y rn at a large hospital when covid came. I immediately saw the flaw when they came out with useless masks voicing my opinion and refused the jab. Covid ended up ruining my life dreams. My husband couldn’t breathe one night, no other option then to go to the hospital, urgent care refusing to help him. I was not allowed in his room, yet as a charge rn could enter any other covid room. Had to call the police to say goodbye and enter his room before intubation. Saw why I was not allowed in. He was septic, no antibiotics , fluids or hone meds were allowed to be given. He was murdered without doubt. Have voiced my thoughts to all, most I feel consider me crazy. I know I am right. What I see now with our gov is beyond belief. EVIL in charge!!!!
Educate yourself. If you are not a shill but really cares, your time here is wasted.
The life depends on energy, we don’t breath oxygen, we ‘breath’ the electrical charge of it (boost to our ‘batteries) – Dr Tom Cowan.
Almost every illness can be cured with IV Vit C which is an ELECTRON DONOR. IV Vit C cures cancer and many more.
It is all about electricity, we are far more electrical than chemical. Anything which can mess with our electrical body is rather harmful and a little are helpful.

I think there were 2 reasons to the covid response. Both of them are financial.
1. The world was on the brink of a financial collapse, as explained by Fabio Vighi, in his article, “A Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Systemic Collapse and Pandemic Simulation’. The global financial system was bailed out by causing a massive inflation to stabilise the unstable debt system. Anyone can check out the massive M1 money supply increase, particularly in the US, where money was printed from thin air and placed in the real economy via people’s (and companies’) bank accounts. The covid lockdown prevented hyperinflation, while the system was bailed out from the Repo Market Crisis that started 6 months prior to a pandemic being called.
2. The second reason is what came after the jab-fest. Most people survived the jab, but many with reduced health outcomes. The elderly had a higher percentage increase in excess deaths. For instance in my country, the over 75 aged males had an increase of 27% in excess deaths.
The UN’s document, “Replacement Migration: Is it A Solution to Declining and Ageing Populations?” provided a clue. They stated it cost 2.5 times to support a retired person, than a young person below 20. They worked out it would take an unattainably high immigration rate, to maintain the working age to old age ratio. So the jab fest could have been to reduce life expectancy, while they flooded the west with younger immigrants.
it was all for the money – anything else was icing on the cake (deaths, control, etc.)
