A viewer asks: “An overlooked aspect of modern medicine is perhaps that now normal human experiences—such as minor stress, aging, ‘high’ blood pressure, ‘high’ cholesterol, or childbirth—are labeled as medical problems that require professional intervention. Society has arguably become increasingly dependent on doctors and healthcare institutions, losing confidence in self-care and mutual support. Medical institutions now dictate social norms, defining what is ‘normal’ or ‘deviant,’ and expanding their authority into everyday life. Is this intended to weaken society’s resilience, creating a population that depends on the medical system for a ‘pharmaceutical invasion’ and even the conception of who is ‘ill?'”

This is a thoughtful analysis of what is taking place, the questioner having been informed through previous probings we have addressed in making clearer that the healthcare system is an emperor with no clothes on. But all are being duped. It is not a kind game of the healthcare providers. They believe in what they are doing, meager as it is, because they have been manipulated by the appeal to ego achieving status as a physician or other healthcare provider confers. As well as the media being manipulated relentlessly, to exalt healthcare providers as miracle workers or, at a minimum, high-level professionals in an enviable position of authority as a kind of gatekeeper holding the secrets to healthy living and answers for illness, when in reality, all are stumbling in the dark and failing to truly advance the quality of healthcare. They are continuing to rely on synthetic chemicals in the pursuit of a magic elixir that all are programmed to believe is possible, the proverbial silver bullet that is thought to exist, custom-tailored to any given health problem. There is a very concerted and managed groupthink underway that has all buying into a faulty premise and then refusing to see any evidence to the contrary for what it represents. The interlopers are in charge of your world and its institutions. They are calling the shots. They are setting the standards. They are undermining and corrupting things to be heavily limited and flawed in ways that will preserve a kind of mediocre status quo and the changes for the better will be quite incremental and largely meaningless because this is the way they want it. Those lobbying for change or representing true innovators are shut out, largely, and sidelined if they gain traction, so that eventually their contributions and ideas will be ignored. With the torrent of information pouring forth from many misguided and manipulated efforts, almost no one will see the truth when it appears because the message gets drowned out by the flood of misinformation and faulty notions that are heavily supported by the mainstream. Nothing much can change for the better under the current circumstances. What you can expect is more of the same.
