“Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship…”
~ Benjamin Rush, MD
These words have never been more relevant. During the COVID era, the media pushed a nonstop wave of fear and panic, convincing millions to surrender their medical freedom. Yet the numbers told a very different story. COVID had a 99% recovery rate for most people, and even among the elderly, it was between 94–97%. But the constant stream of TV headlines, flashing red alerts, and grim death counts made it seem like the end of the world.
Independent investigations revealed just how manipulative this campaign was. Project Veritas caught a CNN staff member on hidden camera admitting that the network intentionally hyped COVID fears to boost ratings. It was psychological warfare.
The strategy even had a name: behavioral nudging: the deliberate use of fear to push public compliance. In 2021, internal documents from the British government’s Scientific Pandemic Insights Group on Behaviours (SPI-B) admitted they had used fear to control people’s actions. Similar tactics spread across the globe. Faulty PCR tests, run at excessively high cycle counts, produced countless false positives, inflating “case” numbers. Meanwhile, natural immunity was downplayed, and balanced discussion was censored.
Fear wasn’t simply a reaction—it was the product being sold.
As Susan E. Schenck points out in her upcoming book, They Called Me a Conspiracy Theorist, the so-called vaccine was experimental from the very beginning. The mainstream media never mentioned that it was released under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA), a status meaning it was still in clinical trials and not fully proven safe or effective. Even the package inserts were blank with no list of ingredients, no side effects, no contraindications.
Yet millions rolled up their sleeves, trusting a system that had long abandoned transparency. The result? A worldwide medical experiment wrapped in a marketing campaign, and a population too afraid to question it.
There’s so much more to this story-hidden facts, censored truths, and first-hand insights that Susan reveals in her powerful memoir. Look out for They Called Me a Conspiracy Theorist, which is coming soon to Amazon, and discover what the media never wanted you to know.
