1/ I am an editor of a @SpringerNature journal and I will give you some more insights into scientific peer-review processes and why fraudulent manipulation with respect to @c_drosten's PCR paper most likely took place at the journal of publication @Eurosurveillanc. (A THREAD)
2/ As mentioned above, the number of days the "Corman-Drosten paper" (see link) spent in the peer-review process is TWO. Backers of the authors often come up with possible explanations, which I will debunk in this thread. eurosurveillance.org/content/10.280…
3/ The paper set out principles with respect to the PCR testing procedure and is therefore considered critically. An international consortium of experts & scientists have critically analysed this mentioned publication and have found several serious flaws. cormandrostenreview.com/report/
4/ These flaws, however, are mainly but not entirely of contentual nature. Unfortunately, until now, both the journal and the involved authors failed to come up with counterarguments and explanations.
5/ In addition to substantive and conceptual weaknesses, the thing that worries me the most is how fundamental scientific principles have been compromised by @Eurosurveillanc.
6/ The attached graphic (provided by @waukema) shows the duration of the journal's peer-review process. In 2019, the average time to publication for "original research papers" was 172 days, which is in line with my personal experiences. So why are 2 days literally impossible?
7/ After completion of writing the paper, the corresponding author (in this case @c_drosten; who by the way is also part of the journal's editorial board) had to submit the paper via a submission form that looks as follows. "Agreement with authors" is another required document.
8/ The corresponding author (i.e. @c_drosten) had to confirm that there were no conflicts of interest. Yet, Drosten was not honest as several (!!!) conflicts of interests have been detected that eventually were corrected under pressure end of July 2020: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
9/ After the paper submission, the Editor-in-chief (i.e. Dr Ines Steffens) had to accept the paper for peer-review. One can argue that @c_drosten as a member of the editorial board might have good relationships to that lady that could have accelerated the process. Point taken!
10/ The paper then had to be sent to at least 2 external reviewers by either the Editor-in-chief or other editors of the editorial team that can be found here. I am usually happy if I find sufficient peer-reviewers within 1-2 weeks (best case scenario). eurosurveillance.org/about
11/ Once an external peer reviewer (who needs to be an expert in that field) accepts the task to review, he/she generally has 30 days to perform the work. Reviewing a paper properly usually is not done within one day. It occurs very rarely that a review is completed within days.
12/ This is what the editor sees as soon as he/she gets the reviewed manuscript back. There are usually 4 recommendations the reviewers can give: (a) Reject [most common], (b) Major Revisions [common], (c) Minor Revisions [rather uncommon], (d) Accept [very rare].
13/ In the case above (example from my journal), both reviewers propose major revisions of the manuscript. If the editor agrees with this recommendation, the authors receive the reviewers' comments that then have to be addressed before entering iteration processes.
14/ My personal experience is as follows:
- Having two reviewers immediately accept the manuscript is close to impossible. (given the methodological flaws of the Corman-Drosten paper I simply cannot imagine such a scenario)
- It usually takes 2-4 review iterations.
15/ Having a paper accepted within 2 days would thus mean: (1) The editor in charge found experts that are willing to review within hours. (2) All experts immediately reviewed the manuscript and found it "perfect as it is" (3) The editor immediately handled the review reports.
18/ After addressing all queries it usually takes some more days until the publication is made available online in its final form. This whole procedure takes around 6 months on average, which is in line with @waukema's analysis above.
19/ TWO (!!!) days, however, smells like scientific fraud and corruption. By the time of submission, extraordinary importance was no factor that could explain this phenomenon. This is a MAJOR SCIENTIFIC SCANDAL and @Eurosurveillanc wraps itself in silence.
20/ Given the fact that @c_drosten's procedure follows a similar script compared with the swine flu "pandemic" in 2009 (i.e. collaboration with Olfert Landt with respect to the PCR test creation, scaremongering etc.) leaves a bad aftertaste. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
21/ The addressed scandal needs to be fully clarified, especially with respect to the roles of all of the individuals and parties involved (especially, @c_drosten and Ines Steffens).
22/ I am also wondering why co-authors such as @MarionKoopmans didn't find it suspicious that their (!!!) paper was literally accepted and available online overnight. As a co-author and serious scientist, I would immediately express my concerns.
23/ That paper has set off an avalanche and has been cited almost 3000 times within 1 year. Unfortunately, the work and its publication process do not meet any requirement of scientific accuracy and formal correctness.
24/ The publication thus needs to be marked as BIASED by @Eurosurveillanc IMMEDIATELY. In addition, an INDEPENDENT COMMISSION needs to examine the exact process and possible fraud/corruption (back in January 2020) and come up with possible consequences for all parties involved.
UPDATE: new alarming insights into the peer-review process.
1/ Are you also sick of the Krassensteins pretending to be moral authorities while calling Trump the devil himself?
And did you know they owed their fame to running teen groupie accounts and making their living scamming people and selling teen p0rn domains?
A THREAD 🧵
2/ The Krassensteins' political careers didn’t begin with policy or journalism. Brian and Ed began by targeting teenage fan communities. Edward ran @bieberfanclubs, Brian ran @JONASBROTHER5. These accounts, followed by teen girls, were later renamed and repurposed for politics.
3/ What followed was buying high-follower accounts, especially fan pages. The strategy was simple: acquire reach, not earn it. They wanted ready-made audiences of emotionally engaged teens to convert into political influence. Btw. edbri871 stands for Ed & Brian. And 871? Well...
🧵 THREAD: I was just flying my drone over my land… and I thought: damn — I really built my own paradise here in the Brazilian jungle.
Here are the 8 Pillars of Real Self-Sufficiency I live by — far from government overreach, societal collapse, and digital slavery. ⬇️
1. FOOD 🍗
“You are what you eat.” Whoever first said it was absolutely right, because food is more than fuel. It shapes your body, your brain, your mood, your immunity, and ultimately your freedom. If you want sovereignty over your life, it starts with what’s on your plate.
Most of the food you find in supermarkets today isn’t really food. It’s processed, stripped of nutrients, pumped with preservatives, and grown in degraded soil. Even the meat and milk are compromised. Factory-farmed animals fed unnatural diets result in products with dangerously skewed omega-6 to omega-3 ratios, which drive inflammation and disease. Add in pesticide residues, seed oils, and synthetic additives, and you get the perfect recipe for physical and mental collapse, disguised as a “balanced diet.”
Almost every modern Western disease, from depression to diabetes, can be traced back to the gut. And the gut is shaped by what you feed it.
This is why food must be your number one priority if you’re serious about self-sufficiency, health, or survival. Growing your own food in a regenerative, permaculture-based system, or trading with others who do, is the only real solution.
As a scientist who has worked with human metabolism for years and studied the causal-loop relationships between dietary input and long-term well-being, I chose to walk the hard path. I left Europe — my family, friends, and even my frozen bank accounts — and moved to Brazil to build the life I believe in. I found a safe place surrounded by jungle, rich in natural resources, and began reclaiming control over my own food and health.
Today, I raise 30 Rhode Island Reds — strong, self-reliant chickens that lay around 20-25 eggs per day. They’re free-range, keeping snakes and spiders away from the house. I feed them homegrown corn, banana plant stalks, and local supplements. While jaguars and pumas occasionally claim one or two despite the electric fencing, I simply hatch more eggs and keep the cycle going.
I also built two greenhouses. The first (50m²) is dedicated to NFT hydroponics, where I grow strawberries, shishito peppers, blackberries and blueberries (in compost), safely shielded from the destructive jungle ants. The second (14m²) is for tomatoes, grown in Dutch bucket systems under sunlight and 20 solar-powered grow lights, yielding 2-4 pounds of heirloom tomatoes per day. I even started breeding my own tomato varieties, but I’ll tell you more about this in a post below.
I also constructed my own aquaculture system to raise trout and tilapia using mountain spring water, which then (being more nutrient-rich due to fish poop/pee) becomes as a fertilizer source for my greenhouse crops.
Beyond that, my land overflows with edibles that thrive in this environment. “Plagues” like sweet potato are a blessing, producing several kilos per plant, perfect for barter or storage. Physalis (golden berries) pop up everywhere and fetch premium prices abroad. Turmeric is invasive, yes, but I harvest and dry it, alongside chili, sweet paprika, black pepper, rosemary, oregano, and cumin. For this, I imported a Ninja 11-in-1 oven, which I also use to ferment yogurt from raw milk.
My food forest is expanding fast. I’ve planted over a dozen banana varieties, including rare types from pink to black. I’m growing mulberries, papayas, avocados, peaches, grapes, olives, lemons, oranges, and tropical species few people have even heard of. I’ve even started harvesting jabuticaba, one of my favorites — its sweet, grape-like fruit grows directly on the bark, straight from the trunk like something out of a fantasy novel (see picture).
Everything I grow is real, nutrient-dense, and free from chemicals. Some of it feeds my family, some feeds my animals, and some I trade for raw milk, meat, or organic cheese with local farmers.
Food is the foundation. Food is health. Food is sovereignty. And growing it yourself is the first act of true rebellion.
2. WATER 💦
Without water, there is no self-sufficiency. It’s not just about drinking — it’s about irrigation, animals, cleaning, aquaculture, and even energy.
The first step to living off-grid is identifying your primary water source:
– Spring water is ideal — clean, pressurized, and often year-round
– Groundwater can work, but always test for contaminants and ensure recharge stability
– Rainwater can be excellent too, but it requires proper collection, filtration, and reliable storage
– Surface water (creeks, ponds) may be usable if managed well, especially with filtration or for non-potable use
No matter what the source: Have a reservoir.
Water storage = drought insurance.
And invest in treatment or filtration systems, because polluted water is worse than no water.
In my case, I’m lucky:
I have three natural untouched springs flowing directly from the mountain. There’s no one above me. That means:
– No chlorine
– No fluoride
– No microplastics
– No pee/poo
– No birth control residue or other pharmaceutical garbage
Just clean, chemical-free, pressurized mountain water. This water feeds everything: my house, my gardens, my chicken, and my aquaculture system (where I raise trout and tilapia).
That nutrient-rich fish water then gets channeled it into my NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) greenhouse, where strawberries and peppers grow like wildfire (and the solid waste goes right onto the composting systems).
Right now, I still use an electric pump to push water to my main tank. But I’m about to upgrade to a hydraulic ram pump, which is a pump that uses gravity and pressure from falling water to lift a portion of it uphill, without any electricity.
That means more efficiency, less energy use, and even less dependence on solar or batteries.
If you don’t control your own water, you’re not free. It’s that simple. You can live without power for a while, but not without water. And if your water is poisoned, everything else collapses.
I also have a 300 ft elevation drop across my land, and all my springs feed into a single stream. That gradient allows me to run a micro-hydropower plant, and will be expanded over time due to its immense potential.
To preserve the purity of this water system, for me and for the ecosystem downstream, I’ve implemented:
– Multilevel septic tanks to responsibly treat both graywater and blackwater
– Biodegradable cleaning and hygiene products only: sodium bicarbonate, organic soaps, borax, vinegar, and essential oils
1/ They lied to you about FAT.
They lied to you about SUNLIGHT.
And they sure as hell lied to you about RAW MILK.
Let me redpill you on nature’s most demonized superfood. 🥛
A THREAD 🧵
2/ Raw milk didn’t kill people. Filthy industrial dairies did. In the 1800s, cows were kept in urban hellholes and fed distillery waste. The “milk” was so toxic they had to mix in chalk to hide the color. Thousands of infants died. Raw milk took the blame.
3/ Rather than clean up dairy farming, elites pushed pasteurization, a shortcut to sterilize dirty milk.
But heat kills everything good too:
– Enzymes
– Immune cells
– Probiotics
– Growth factors
Raw milk became illegal. Dead milk became standard.
... they never asked real questions.
... they never pushed back.
... they never held anyone accountable.
Instead of exposing contradictions, journalists became cheerleaders for lies.
Instead of protecting democracy, they demolished it.
Instead of questioning "the science," they enforced it like a religion.
They canceled real scientists.
They smeared truth-tellers as "COVID deniers" and "anti-vaxxers."
They pushed millions into taking shots that cost billions of life years worldwide.
And to this day, there has been no apology. No accountability. The liars still work, and the people who told the truth got fired.
Every journalist who pushed these lies, every journalist who shamed, discriminated, and canceled, must be held accountable.
This cannot go unpunished.
Not after what they did to the world.
By the way:
Throughout all the lies, censorship, and gaslighting, there were a few voices who stood strong.
Those citizen journalists, medical doctors, and scientists asked the hard questions when it was dangerous to do so.
They got smeared, silenced, and attacked — but they were right.
They deserve to be vindicated.
