In 1900, 2% of U.S. GDP went to healthcare, but today it consumes nearly 19%. Meanwhile, expected longevity has started declining, and we are in the midst of an avalanche of rapidly proliferating chronic diseases, with no end in sight. People are getting sicker at a younger age. We are spending a lot more, and getting a lot less for our money.
Something is clearly wrong with the system, and has been for a long, long time. Add it all together, and it is clear that our healthcare system operates under a very flawed and failing paradigm, which fails to meet the needs of the majority of people that it serves.
The following is offered as a means of comprehending why, in 2024, U.S. healthcare costs were the highest in the world, yet in 2023 we were ranked as the 69th best healthcare system on the planet (down from 37th a little more than a decade ago).1
So far, Google Translate hasn't gotten around to translating this particular language, so I felt the need to present this the old-fashioned way, as a brief printed translation guide. If there are any Google Engineers out there who want to help Make America Healthy Again (or, the Earth for that matter), you have my permission to use any of the following in a future Medical Doublespeak Google Translate app. Ideally, artificial intelligence can be employed to translate medical doublespeak in real time, and thus render completely harmless such heinous and destructive lies, innuendos and half-truths.
Fortunately for all of us, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., over his many years of challenging corporate vested interests, has had to become completely fluent in Medical Doublespeak. He will need that vital skill as he starts work as the new head of Health and Human Services in the U.S. If he had the time and inclination, I suspect he could do a vastly better and more complete treatment of this topic, than I have with this humble attempt.
What is Doublespeak?
Doublespeak is any language that is designed to hide its true meaning: it is something said in such a way, that what the audience understands is something other than the speaker's true meaning (very often the polar opposite). In short, it's often a lie made to sound believable. And when a lie is told often enough, it almost always becomes accepted as truth.
It's the language that has been employed by the Rockefeller Medical Cartel2 for over one hundred years, to wallpaper over the many failures of Corporatized Orthodox Medicine, and to disparage their competitors.
"Until they became conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious." - George Orwell, from 1984.Medical Doublespeak is the language of an abusive relationship of exploitation and victimization between the Rockefeller Medical Cartel and the general public, with most healthcare workers being unaware of the harms being caused.3 Its hallmarks are euphemism and ambiguity, which are reinforced through mantras and various manipulative psychological techniques, such as gaslighting.
Euphemism is a means of expressing an offensive thing in an inoffensive way: Victims are Patients; Dogma is Fact; Sick Care is Healthcare, etc.
Ambiguity results from a word or phrase having more than one meaning, as in: doctored, profit-driven corporatized science ($cience) is equivalent to altruistic true or "pure" science (Science).
Mantras are the repetitive sound bites that help to ingrain doublespeak into our collective consciousness. The mantras of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism are the sacred verbal formulas incanted repeatedly in order to program public beliefs: Vaccines are Safe; The Science is Settled, etc.
Gaslighting is an art of psychological manipulation which is intended to displace undesirable beliefs by making one question their sanity. The key to resisting gaslighting is to have a personal North Star: something that you believe so deeply from personal experience that it is impossible for creeping doubt to shake it loose. Any Warrior Mom who has seen their child injured by a vaccine will have an unshakable North Star.
"Power is in tearing human minds to pieces and putting them together again in new shapes of your own choosing." - George Orwell, from 1984.Why is Doublespeak Employed?
In a nutshell, and as George Orwell wrote above, in this instance it is to tear your mind to pieces and put it back together again, in the way that best benefits Corporatized Orthodox Medicine, as created by the Rockefeller Medical Cartel.
A derivative of allopathic medicine, Corporatized Orthodox Medicine was created with the help of the Flexner Report in 1910. This report was commissioned by The Carnegie Foundation, allegedly as a means of improving the quality of medical training in the United States. But the true intent was to establish a uniform method of practicing medicine that incorporated the many newly created pharmaceutical drugs being brought to market. To do this, every effort was made to eliminate competitors, or at least greatly diminish their market share.
As a result, allopathic medicine became a hollow shell of its former self, by jettisoning a significant part of the centuries of accumulated knowledge and wisdom it had acquired up until that time. Herbal and botanical treatments were cast aside, and replaced by patentable distillations and their chemical analogs, each consisting of a single chemical ingredient thought to produce the bulk of the desired effects caused by the actual plants.
Doublespeak is used to protect the main unofficial tenets of the Cartel, which include:4
- Always protect and defend what is profitable, and only replace it with something that generates even more profits (i.e., a harmful, yet profitable, treatment shall always be defended).
- Never accuse a non-competitor of causing harm, as they are doing you a favor (for instance, many standard dental procedures create chronic diseases5 that are eventually treated by medical doctors).
- Always accuse a competitor of causing harm, as they diminish your profitability.
- When educating a future physician, the emphasis shall always be on teaching practices that increase the physician's income over improving the patient's outcome (this is enforced through the Standard of Care).
- First fabricate the disease, next instill the fear, then market the treatment and/or the preventative.
- A chronically ill patient is always better than a healthy one (said differently, junkies and sick people make the best customers, and it pays to keep them that way).
- Alternative healing methods that compete against Corporatized Orthodox Medicine shall not be covered by insurance.
- Only pharmaceutical drugs shall be legally deemed to cure a disease.
- Treat the disease, not the person.
- A patient cured is a customer lost.
- Poison is medicine.
- With either infectious diseases or cancer, if you can't kill the bug, kill the host!
Corporate Orthodox Medicine
Corporate Orthodox Medicine is organized hierarchically and works much like any religion.
This religion is a system of beliefs and practices derived mainly from $cience, which is any doctored science that supports the profit aims of the Rockefeller Medical Cartel.
The church's main worship focuses are: biochemisty, surgery and radiation.
The church establishes temples, known as hospitals or clinics, where this worship is performed.
Sects work within the temples and tend to particular aspects of the three main areas of worship. Sects with extremist beliefs, rituals and practices are called cults. The temple's sects and cults are known as medical specialties. Specialty sects include such practices as cardiology and nephrology. Specialty cults include such practices as oncology, pediatry, vaccinology and virology.
Some cults, such as virology and vaccinology, operate outside of the temples, in facilities that are not accessible to the public. Their relative isolation contributes to their extremist worship views and practices.
A Concise Guide to Medical Doublespeak
Some common medical euphemisms, ambiguities and mantras, and their acronyms.
Being able to identify and understand medical doublespeak can literally be the difference between health and disease; life and death. Hence, the reason for this guide: to decode the hidden meaning behind common medical doublespeak words and phrases, in order to keep you alive, and to preserve your good health for as long as possible.
Italicized words used in the definitions that follow are themselves defined elsewhere within the list.
I think Toby Rogers was the person who inadvertently got me started on this, and hopefully he won't mind the acknowledgement. Please don't blame anyone but me for airing this out in public. It is likely to offend people who work in healthcare, but I am aiming this mainly at the SYSTEM and its RITUALS, and not the majority of PEOPLE who work in healthcare.
Allopathic Medicine = Big Pharma's main drug distribution channel; An insurance-reimbursable form of highly profitable Health Scare sanctioned by the AMA and the Rockefeller Medical Cartel; The most profit-centric version of allopathic medicine does business as Corporatized Orthodox Medicine; A system of siloed medical specialties, designed to ignore easily treatable minor health issues until they eventually become critical, chronic and harder to reverse (and thus far more profitable to treat).
Allopathic Roulette = A practice derived from the concept of Russian Roulette, but the odds are not nearly as favorable, and you are never advised of your participation in the scheme. See also Quackcine.
American Medical Association (AMA) = The doing-business-as (dba) name of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism,6 which is affiliated with the religion of $cience; After 1910, it became mostly synonymous with Corporatized Orthodox Medicine; The trade representation group for pharmers.
Asymptomatic = A euphemism for being healthy. The implication being that even when you are healthy, you are just one germ away from disaster.
Autoimmunity = A euphemism for being vaccine injured. This is not the body attacking itself, but a symptom of an immune system in crisis due to metal sensitivity/toxicity.
Big Pharma = The drug creation, manufacturing and distribution arm of the Rockefeller Medical Cartel.
Cartel, Rockefeller Medical = See Rockefeller Medical Cartel.
Cashectomy = See Walletectomy.
CDC = The acronym of either the Corporate Drug Cartel or Center for Disease Crimes. Take your pick, the end result is pretty much the same.
Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) = The acronym of this euphemistically-named shill group actually stands for Center for Compounding Disease and Harm. It is a hastily created front group for Big Pharma which created The Disinformation Dozen: an effort to paint leading health advocates, awake doctors and other health activists as terrorists, because they questioned dogmatic edicts and emergency authority based solely upon doctored science.
Chronic Disease = The Holy Grail of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism, as it ensures repeat customers! That means more office visits, more procedures, more diagnostic tests, more imaging, more specialist referrals - more of everything! Ka-ching!
Church of Medical Mysticism = See Medical Mysticism, The Most Holy Church of.
Consensus = A euphemism for any approved narrative of the Rockefeller Medical Cartel.
Corporatized Orthodox Medicine = Allopathic medicine, with an increased focus on profitability; The preferred form of orthodox medicine that was practiced after the publication of the Flexner Report in 1910; After 1910, an analog of the American Medical Association.
DMSO7 = Dimethyl sulfoxide, industrial solvent and byproduct of the paper industry, which is perhaps the largest threat to the Rockefeller Medical Cartel. An unproven therapy that is cheap, exceptionally safe, and helps all kinds of acute and chronic problems. If you tried DMSO before going to your doctor, he'd soon be at risk of experiencing the same fate as the Maytag Repairman. See also Magnesium, Vitamin C.
Doctor = An adjective meaning to alter or falsify; to change a document to deceive people.8 See also M.D., Medical Doctor, Pharmer.
Doctored Science = See $cience.
Drug Deficiency/Insufficiency = In The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism, this is the cause of all chronic disease. From their perspective, we simply don't get enough drugs in our diets these days! How simple of a concept is that?
Flexner Report = A report completed in 1910 at the behest of The Carnegie Foundation which led to Corporatized Orthodox Medicine, and the eventual elimination of some competing healing modalities. The result of the report was a recommendation that one third of medical schools be closed, solely for lack of facilities, not for lack of results or effectiveness. It eventually led to one half of medical schools being closed, and the removal of natural medicine from all allopathic medical schools. It is generally acknowledged as the event that caused orthodox medicine to lose its soul.
Healthcare = A euphemism for disease creation and management.
Hospital = A euphemism for the local temple of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism.
M.D. = An acronym for Medieval Doctor (not Malpractice Doctor, though the confusion is understandable), at least in regard to the treatment of chronic conditions. MDs are taught that all treatments will be based upon Newtonian physics, despite chronic disease being caused by imbalances at the level of quantum physics. Also known as a prescriber, since giving drugs to suppress symptoms is most of what they do. [Please note that MDs who practice emergency medicine are true Medical Doctors. They are the one fairly essential aspect of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism.]
Magnesium = An unproven therapy that can help with heart arrhythmias, soft tissue calcification, blood pressure and overall cellular health. It is a considerable threat to one of the more profitable specialties of Corporatized Orthodox Medicine: cardiology. See also DMSO, Vitamin C.
Medical Doctor = A euphemism for a priest in The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism. See also M.D., Pharmer.
Medical Doublespeak = The official language of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism.
Medical Mysticism, The Most Holy Church of = The church of the religion of $cience, practiced by pharmers, who tend to patients. The church is separated into a large number of sects or cults (siloed specialties), among the most profitable of which is oncology. The investment arm of the Church is pediatry: while not as profitable as oncology, pediatry recruits victims at the very earliest stages of life, assuring a far longer-lasting revenue stream than any of it's sibling sects and cults.
Nosocomephobia = The excessive fear of hospitals; a very critical innate sense designed by Mother Nature for surviving Corporatized Orthodox Medicine. We all need a lot more of this if we are going to survive and prosper!
Oncology = A cult of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism that specializes in barbaric cancer "therapies;" The practice of cutting, burning and poisoning a victim for profit. If five years after beginning treatment the victim is still alive, victory is declared! If they die before then, it's because the victim foolishly didn't see their doc soon enough. This is the classic Rapist's Defense - the abuser always blames the victim! After all, it was the victim who came to them (though the victim had no real choice, because insurance-reimbursable healthcare is a monopoly)!
Patient = A euphemism for a victim who pays for the privilege of being victimized. Ka-ching!
Pediatrician = A practitioner in the cult of pediatry; The most fervent and extremist believer of the mantra "In the arm: Does no harm;" The principle groomer for the creation of a lifetime of chronic health problems; A doctor highly incentivized to cause autoimmunity in his young victims.
Pediatry = More commonly called pediatrics, in order to avoid confusion with podiatry; A cult of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism that is best known for their extremist views on vaccination. Their primary mission is the cultivation of disease in unborn babies, infants, children and teens.
Pfizer9 = In their 175 years in existence, a corporation with a perfect record of never curing anything; The criminally convicted drug company that you should trust. Like all con men, they've learned their lesson and will do better next time.
Pharmer = A physician or prescriber who is taught to believe in "One bug: One drug," "One ill: One pill," and "In the arm: Does no harm;" a euphemism for a drug pusher. Just as a farmer will apply fertilizer to his crops to increase yield-per-acre and profit-per-acre, a successful pharmer uses drug side effects to increase his yield of diseases-per-victim, and thus his profit-per-victim.
Physician = In the context of Medical Doublespeak, see either M.D. or Pharmer.
Prescriber = A drug pusher.
Prevention/Screening = A euphemism for early victim identification. Also a way to include younger and healthier people in healthcare statistics, in order to create the illusion of improved outcomes. Since younger victims are more likely to survive the barbaric rituals of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism, they help to create the illusion that the rituals are more effective than they actually are.
Public Welfare = The primary excuse for, and a euphemism of, increasing the profitability of Corporatized Orthodox Medicine.
Remdesivir = An approved treatment for COVID with no known therapeutic value, colloquially referred to as "Run, death is near."
Rockefeller Medical Cartel = The creators of the religion of $cience; A corporate cartel exercising control over medical education and practice, through having Cartel members participate on the boards of directors of most medical colleges, many large medical centers and several healthcare-related manufacturers. In addition, they have considerable influence in many arms of the Federal Government's Department of Health and Human Services. The Cartel was modeled after the A. G. Farben chemical manufacturing cartel in Germany.10
Quack11 = A euphemism for a person or organization that threatens the profitability of dogmatic healthcare; Any competitor to Corporatized Orthodox Medicine.
Quackery = A euphemism for a substance or process that threatens the profitability of dogmatic Corporatized Orthodox Medicine. For examples, see DMSO, Magnesium, Vitamin C.
Quackcine = Perhaps the most profitable con perpetrated by our healthcare system. The government/insurance pays for the shots, then we pay individually for the disastrous side effects: sometimes with our lives, often with our health. This is the means of implementing Allopathic Roulette: maybe you'll get lucky, probably you won't. But why take the chance? Just Say No! (This catchy slogan works just as well for immoral drugs as illegal ones).
RCT12= The acronym for a randomized controlled trial, which can cost millions of dollars to conduct. When performed by Big Pharma, it is known as either a Ridiculously Corrupt Trial or a Rarely Credible Trial, because when you spend millions of dollars on one of these, you expect to see a return on your investment.
Safe and Effective = An ambiguous phrase that actually means safely profitable for Big Pharma and effectively harmful or deadly to you.
$cience = Doctored science, which supports the profit motives of the Rockefeller Medical Cartel; The religion worshipped by The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism; Science corrupted by profit, which creates junk science and/or anti-science; An unfortunate and mind-bogglingly confusing homonym of science.
It is THE ULTIMATE DOUBLESPEAK. I mean, how can society function with two exactly opposite terms that sound exactly alike? This is the literal source of polarity in society: something can simultaneously be the truth and a lie, at least until you can determine which word is being used!
Scientific Medicine = Originally used to distinguish the "new" medicine of the early 1800s from the prior historical use of diagnoses based upon the four humors. While rarely used today, it capriciously infers that any medicine or practice not endorsed by Corporatized Orthodox Medicine is unscientific and therefore requires no factual rebuttal. Synonymous with dogmatic medicine. The correct, yet infrequently used, spelling is $cientific Medicine.
Screening/Prevention = See Prevention/Screening.
Settled Science = A euphemism for established dogma, which shall not be questioned. The actual phrase should be Settled $cience.
Standard of Care = An ambiguous phrase for a system of treatment guidelines, believed to assure best practices, that in reality enforces a Standard of Maximum Profitability. The healthcare system is carefully scripted to assure maximum expenditure by the patient: initial consult, lab work, imaging, referral to specialists, follow ups, etc, all leading to a delay in treatment, in the hope that the problem becomes acute and therefore the patient gets diverted to more profitable Emergency Care. "Substandard of care" would be slightly less deceptive, and more accurately descriptive.
Total Cashectomy = See Walletectomy.
Triage = The process of sorting potential chronic disease victims by their likelihood of profitability. Those with chronic problems that have become emergent have the highest profitability, and are seen immediately in the emergency room, where insurance reimbursements are highest. Those with chronic problems that have become urgent are the next most profitable, and are subjected to extensive diagnostic testing and referral to specialists over multiple appointments, to improve profitability. This also delays their treatment and increases the likelihood that the chronic problem will become emergent and thus even more profitable.
Unproven Therapy = A treatment whose potentially disruptive effect on profitability is either not yet known or greatly feared. Any modest increase in profitability over existing treatments will assure that the therapy becomes proven, provided it also has sufficient serious side effects to assure sufficient additional future victimization. All cheap, safe and effective therapies will forever be unproven (examples include DMSO, Magnesium, Vitamin C).
Vaccine = The most effective tool for creating the chronically ill patients whom The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism seeks to victimize and exploit. Since the only immunity inferred is to the vaccine manufacturer, it is more accurately described as a quackcine. All vaccines cause harm.13
Vaccination = A euphemism for stealth victimization.
Vaccinology = A specialized area of worship within The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism dealing with the $cientific rationale for vaccination.
Virology = A specialized area of worship within The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism dealing with viruses, which are invisible microorganisms. In their belief system, they are believed to cause some forms of contagion.
Vitamin C = An unproven therapy also known as the virus slayer; Another safe, effective and inexpensive threat to the profitability of The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism.14 See also DMSO, Magnesium.
Walletectomy = Sometimes known as a total cashectomy, it is the most important medical procedure, and the primary reason and justification for The Most Holy Church of Medical Mysticism. Walletectomies are touted to be the cure that can end all disease. The theory is that if Corporatized Orthodox Medicine can just empty all wallets, full health for all will be realized. This is kind of like vaccines and herd immunity - just as everyone has to be vaccinated to achieve herd immunity, all wallets must be emptied to achieve the full societal benefits of walletectomies: it only takes one holdout to spoil the magic for everyone else. This inevitably leads to mandates to protect public welfare (and to maximize corporate profits).
By sharing the above, I don't mean to disparage everyone who works in allopathic healthcare. I worked in healthcare for seven years, my wife was a registered nurse for forty years (as was her mother), and my brother and his wife were both nurses (LPN and RN, respectively). I know firsthand that pretty much everyone who enters healthcare employment does so with very noble intentions.Notes:
Our current healthcare disaster started at the top, well above the paygrade of the average doctor. Kudos to those doctors and other healthcare workers who become at least partially awake to the massive flaws in the system they unwittingly contribute to. The more who become awakened, the greater the chance for improvement and lasting change.

Reader Comments
However this is not "our healthcare system operates under a very flawed and failing paradigm".
This "paradigm" has been engineered over the last century and 20 years. Rockefeller took over the medical education apparatus, created Big Pharma, and essentially made doctors Big Pharma sales people. In other words, it was intended to create a market for drugs that treated symptoms without healing anyone; it was intended to create permanent "clients" to drugs, chronic disease. Many of the drugs created to treat symptoms caused other symptoms which were treated with other drugs.
Medicine as practiced in the USA is mostly a corrupt scam.
Manipulation is INTERPRETATION DW. The Tower of Babel.
Stupid can't be fixed. Lollll DE.POP.
Wipe the blight from the planet.
Start Again, its beyond repair.
In 1979 the book Confessions Of A Medical Heretic - Robert S. Mendelsohn M.D predates the post.
You can download here [Link]
From the book:
"I do not believe in Modern Medicine. I am a medical heretic. . . ."I haven't always been a medical heretic. I once believed in Modern Medicine. . . . But I no longer believe in Modern Medicine. "I believe that despite all the super technology and elite bedside manner that's supposed to make you feel about as well cared for as an astronaut on the way to the moon, the greatest danger to your health is the doctor who practices Modern Medicine. "I believe that Modern Medicine's treatments for disease are seldom effective, and that they're often more dangerous than the diseases they're designed to treat. "I believe the dangers are compounded by the widespread use of dangerous procedures for non-diseases. "I believe that more than ninety percent of Modern Medicine could disappear from the face of the earth—doctors, hospitals, drugs, and equipment—and the effect on our health.would be immediate and beneficial. . . . "Modern Medicine can't survive without our faith, because Modern Medicine is neither an art or a science. It's a religion. . . . "One definition of religion identifies it as any organized effort to deal with puzzling or mysterious things we see going on in and around us. The Church of Modern Medicine deals with the most puzzling phenomena: birth, death, and all the tricks our bodies play on us—and we on them—in between. In The Golden Bough, religion is defined as the attempt to gain the favor of 'powers superior to man, which are believed to direct and control the course of nature and human life.'
"If people don't spend billions of dollars on the Church of Modern Medicine in order to gain favor with the powers that direct and control human life, what do they spend it on?"
In this book Mendelsohn describes why he believes that Modern Medicine is more of a cultic religion in which the doctors are the Priests, and the rituals and ceremonies of various procedures with their treatments are Sacraments; the hospitals are Temples of Doom. You will find this book very enlightening, and will be better prepared if, for any reason, you might need to be involved with a hospital or a doctor.
There are no reproducable experiments with proper control that can repeated at any time and any place, yielding identical results. Thus the property "falsifiable", as required by Popper's definition, does not apply.
Second, and equally important, statistics prove nothing . This is a fact every scientist and academic acknowledges, yet basically all the medical field and pharma ever comes up with are ... statistical data.
What remains is voodoo-like cult trying to impress, manipulate, and scam you.
You can even read it in the "methodology" section of each study, which data sets they excluded because it didn't fit the model.
In "honor" to Ancel Keys, one of the greatest frauds in this field. They still push the BS about a so-called "seven-country-study" on his Wackopedia site. Which in fact covered more than 20 countries, and where they deliberately picked those seven ones' that supported their narrative.
