Whitlock: Aaron Rodgers and Joe Rogan stand against the CCP – Competitive COVID Propaganda
Aaron Rodgers is the most dangerous and important man in professional sports. The Green Bay quarterback and reigning NFL MVP can articulate American professional sports leagues’ greed-driven betrayal of their athletes.
So far, most athletes believe the only consequence of American sports bowing to the CCP is a fattened bank account. Young, poorly educated, and dependent on social media algorithms for guidance, modern athletes fail to recognize the danger of globalism and abandonment of traditional American values.
Aaron Rodgers is no longer young. Specks of gray highlight his mane. Intellectual curiosity compels him to seek information beyond what Twitter and Facebook approve. He engages with the disruptive. He flirts with cancellation.
On Saturday, during a three-hour interview, podcaster Joe Rogan played the role of Morpheus and offered Rodgers the red pill and the blue pill. Rodgers channeled Neo and joined the rebellion.
"The Matrix: Competitive COVID Propaganda." That’s what we witnessed Saturday.
In his discussion with Rogan, Rodgers began the process of unpacking the COVID duplicity the NFL unleashed on its players and employees at the behest of Big Pharma.
“And then we're gonna virtue-signal to say, 'Look how righteous our league is, we have 95% compliance with the vaccine,'” Rodgers told Rogan. “And if you don’t, we’re going to send a stooge to your team to show you graphs of your vaccination percentage of your team compared to the rest of the league, which actually happened."
“Day three of training camp, they sent this stooge in, and he showed these slides about what your vaccination percentage was on your team. Where are you, compared to the rest of the league? And I started asking him questions about liability. ‘Oh, I’m not a lawyer.’ Okay, cool. But you’re in here talking about all these different things, and you don’t talk about anybody’s personal health issues. There’s zero exemptions, you took out religious exemptions, you took out PEG exemptions, you took out anybody’s ability to have an opinion of ‘I don’t want to do this.’”
It’s unfair to single out the NFL. The entire sports world joined the Competitive COVID Propaganda movement. The NBA, MLB, NHL, and NCAA were no better than the NFL.
They all bowed to the CCP and the globalist agenda. All the leagues applied as much pressure as possible for young, perfectly healthy athletes to bend over and take an experimental medical trial that does not prevent COVID or its spread. Worse, it’s a rushed medical trial for which we do not know the full scope of its side effects.
In terms of betrayal and damage to trust, this is far worse than the NFL’s alleged dishonesty about concussions. CTE is junk science propagated by the anti-football movement. Even the Washington Post has attacked the alleged discoverer of CTE, Bennet Omalu, the doctor celebrated in the Will Smith-fronted concussion movie.
We’re living through an information and propaganda war. Aaron Rodgers is the highest-profile influencer to join the rebellion. He could wake up his athletic peers to the fact that they’re being used against their own best interest and the best interest of America.
Rodgers might be the most dangerous athlete since Muhammad Ali changed the approved narrative on the Vietnam War. The NFL’s media partners will denigrate Rodgers for consenting to an interview with Rogan and discussing the illogical COVID protocols that defined professional sports last year.
NBC’s Mike Florio, the founder of Pro Football Talk, complained that Rodgers “dredged up a dead issue.” Florio and many other media outlets focused on Rodgers admitting that he misled the media a year ago about his vaccination status.
That’s not the story. Pro sports leagues misleading their employees at the behest of pharmaceutical companies and the vaccine-crazy Biden administration is the real story.
Big Pharma controls television and the sports leagues. That’s what’s driving Competitive COVID Propaganda.
Remember five years ago when Papa John’s Pizza was the NFL’s most visible advertiser? John Schnatter is an all-American success story. He grew up in small-town Indiana. He started a pizza parlor in the closet of his dad’s bar. He became a billionaire. He and Peyton Manning promoted Papa John’s Pizza during commercial breaks of NFL games.
John Schnatter has traditional American values. His brand fit the old NFL. The new NFL pivoted to a globalist agenda The new NFL, like all of television, surrendered to Big Pharma’s advertising thirst.
Big Pharma has pills and vaccines to sell on TV. Big Pharma cut a deal with the Trump-led government to develop vaccines free of any liability for their side effects. The NFL, the NBA, the NHL, and MLB all hopped on the Big Pharma gravy train.
The athletes were treated as lab rats and guinea pigs.
Aaron Rodgers knows this. More importantly, he can articulately explain this. Pro sports leagues don’t want this explained. So their media partners will be very reluctant to address Rodgers’ interview with Rogan. They’ll pretend no one cares.
The truth is Competitive COVID Propaganda has inflicted irrevocable damage on the thin and fading trust between athletes and ownership. As the risks of the vaccines become more and more clear, athletes will realize ownership offered them up as pawns in a globalist game. So did their unions. All of their unions agreed to the draconian COVID protocols. The NFL and the NBA had the most punitive rules because their unions are the weakest and have the worst leadership.
Here’s hoping Aaron Rodgers doesn’t stop with his Joe Rogan interview. Here’s hoping Rodgers inspired other athletes to stand as men and support Novak Djokovic, the world’s top tennis player who is being prevented from playing in the U.S. Open because he won’t take the vaccine. Moderna is one of the primary sponsors of the tournament.
We all must reject the rulership of the Chinese Communist Party and all of its Big Pharma-backed COVID variants.
