This story is about graphene supplies and philosophy. Graphene! Graphene! Graphene is right here, finally! We the folks, which means, we the lowly peasants, can sigh a sigh of reduction. Are you able to hear our celebratory breath? Sorry in all probability not behind our masks however belief us, we’re celebrating, and following the science.
I imply, what took them so lengthy to provide us a marvel materials enabling these fantastic futuristic sensors that may allow us to connect with the Web of Our bodies and have our caring, smart masters monitor our organic state and nudge us to do the fitting factor, for our personal good — to not point out the nice of the neighborhood and the collective grandmas?
We all know, this materials has probably not been examined for organic security in a which means means however we’re used to it by now, and we’ve skilled ourselves to not fear our little heads about such foolish issues. So long as they present us a minimum of ten shiny commercials saying that it’s secure, our our bodies will change their outdated chemistry with the contents of the brand new commercials. Science!
Legal guidelines of nature? Neglect them, we’re above … which means, our masters are above, we’re under, however under is above. Sort of like, we aren’t engineers, so we will’t actually determine the instructions. And what issues to the peasants is that we’re on this collectively, and we now have been ready and ready and drumming our fingers for somebody to attach us to a extremely vital community of computer systems to watch our our bodies with care … and our wait is lastly over! We’re on this collectively!
We — and we’re talking for all of the lowly peasants — are feeling excellent and grateful that we will now depend on the masters to watch our organic capabilities, versus empowering our personal immune methods which have solely been round for thousands and thousands of years. So we’re really relieved by the all this Fourth Industrial Revolution and different associated progress. Phew!
Thanks, our tremendous rich, caring masters! Thanks! Please monitor us more durable! More durable! More durable! (We’re feeling a bit ecstatic!)
Oh and about that self-heating graphene wallpaper (which will or might not shed little particles which will or might not harm our our bodies … sorry for an clearly egocentric and irresponsible prepare of thought … sorry sorry)? Sure, please additionally give us the self-heating graphene wallpaper! And please give us a giant glass of glyphosate to drink whereas we’re at it!
Being one with the system is completely price it, since what’s good for Monsanto is nice for our our bodies! And will we additionally please request one other secure 5G tower subsequent to our bed room?
We might dwell a shorter life consequently however who cares, a minimum of we’ll have which means, and a way of belonging granted by our masters for being zombies, and “neighborhood values”! And please hold monitoring and controlling us more durable!
On a facet notice, how we’ve managed to outlive to this present day with out a number of 5G towers and self-heating wallpaper is a thriller to us peasants. It have to be all of the glyphosate in our meals that saved us going. We simply love the progress, and we simply love love love marching according to something the masters give us for our good and their earnings.
Wait … we’re feeling bizarre … our brains … our hearts … the room is swirling … we could also be collapsing … we aren’t pretending … we expect we’re dying … why are these different folks nonetheless laughing, clapping, and screaming to proceed the present?
Now let’s pause, scream, cry, ponder the tragedy, and proceed to the intense a part of the story. By the way in which, my sarcasm was directed on the blind fanaticism, not at chemistry, and never on the poor, disposable mannequin residents. Graphene … graphene is only a materials.
If we took the predatory motives and the Web of Our bodies and the greed and the merciless vanity out of the equation, and if graphene supplies had been correctly examined for short-term and long-term well being security earlier than even contemplating placing them in the whole lot, there can be no want to jot down this story.
However alas, our world of immediately is pushed by merciless, headless maniacs with a propensity towards totalitarianism, who’re obsessive about the Web of Our bodies and who care about our well-being as a lot as a cockroach farmer cares about his “cattle.” And my sarcasm is a protecting response to masks the grief I really feel over the truth that the headless persons are making an attempt to invade my the whole lot, and to trick my brothers.
The quickly enchanted could also be performing proud and self-destructive attributable to enchantment, however beneath the spell, they’ve a soul, and they’re my brothers, and I pray for them to interrupt free from dangerous magic, in order that we will maintain fingers and dance collectively. And to hell with the self-heating graphene wall-paper, except it’s totally examined. Anyway, the intense a part of the story.
What Is Graphene?
Graphene is a carbon materials with distinctive and profitable properties. It’s “a single layer (monolayer) sheet of carbon atoms which might be bonded collectively in a repeating sample of hexagons.” This sheet is just one atom thick. Monolayers of graphene stacked on prime of one another type graphite. Since a typical carbon atom has a diameter of about 0.33 nanometers, there are about 3 million layers of graphene in a 1 mm thick sheet of graphite.
“Due to the distinctive construction of graphene, it possesses different superb traits: Its excessive electron mobility is 100x sooner than silicon; it conducts warmth 2x higher than diamond; its electrical conductivity is 13x higher than copper; it absorbs solely 2.3% of reflecting gentle; it’s impervious in order that even the smallest atom (helium) cannot go by way of a defect-free monolayer graphene sheet.”
It’s thought-about a brand new class of supplies, the so referred to as 2D materials. It’s referred to as 2D (arbitrarily, in my view) as a result of it’s just one atom thick, and so the scientists determined to measure its peak at zero.
It’s the speak of the city. Its inventors received a Nobel prize. It’s more durable than metal, it shrinks from warmth and expands from chilly (which is the alternative of what different supplies do), and this can be very conductive. And once more, I might personally be cautiously enthusiastic about such a marvel materials if it weren’t within the fingers of the maniacs who don’t have any respect for my physique! I’m not a conspiracy theorist, I’m a conspiracy realist!
Moreover, there are lots of graphene-based supplies and derivatives with their very own distinctive properties, comparable to “holey graphene,” graphene oxide, graphene hydroxide, and many others.
For instance, “graphene oxide (GO) is a single atom carbon layer the place each surfaces of the layer are modified by oxygen containing practical teams. In multi-layer graphene oxide, the carbon layers are separated by practical teams bonded to every layer of carbon atoms.
Though GO – like graphene – is a 2D materials, its properties are very completely different from that of graphene. It doesn’t take in seen gentle, has very low electrical conductance in comparison with that of graphene, and demonstrates considerably increased chemical exercise.”
Are Graphene Supplies Secure?
The reality is, we do not know. It has not been sufficiently examined for toxicity. The place it was examined. the outcomes had been blended — and it that restricted testing, it looks as if it significantly relied on varied components comparable to what particular materials was used, the way it was produced, the dimensions of the flakes, whether or not there have been potential contaminants, and so forth.
Some research speak about neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity, DNA harm, lung harm, and lots of different alarming outcomes (right here, right here, and right here). I significantly suggest going over the primary one because it gives an summary (as of 2016) of various administration routes and mechanisms of toxicity for graphene-family nanoparticles.
Some tales of mentioning the toxicity of graphene supplies are tragic. The German chemist Dr. Andreas Noack made a video in regards to the toxicity of graphene hydroxide and the way it may minimize like a tiny razor blade, after which he was discovered useless, rumored to have been murdered.
Some are saying graphene is a tremendous weapon in opposition to antibiotic-resistant superbugs (right here, right here, and right here).
(Notably — and I can’t assist excited about it — the WEF is speaking about antimicrobial resistance because the subsequent huge well being hazard, and if there may be one factor on this world that’s sure, it’s that they wouldn’t thoughts us getting sick in order that they’ll profitably “treatment” us.)
As an oddity, here’s a research on bettering fertility outcomes in pigs by utilizing graphene oxide to, forgive me, “engineer sperm membrane.” (Sounds fantastic. One other concept is to possibly cease messing with nature and allow us to all reproduce with out poisons, however I perceive that my concept makes it laborious to make a revenue, so I apologize, and convey on graphene oxide!) And one other fascinating research.
As well as, graphene (versus a few of its derivatives) has mad electrical conductivity, and the science of immediately may be very smug about our our bodies’ electrical properties, so they aren’t even that correctly, although electrical energy is likely one of the essential languages utilized by our our bodies for inside and exterior communication.
In different phrases, we’re on our personal with this, and if it seems that graphene supplies is Glyphosate 2.0., I’m certain that the tremendous buyers will discover a solution to market new and improved graphene in coffin decorations.
Listed here are two dry and technical shows from 2016, wherein the presenters speak in regards to the checks they performed. And whereas their conclusions are optimistic, they point out issues like “good internalization” (integration of graphene oxide into the cells), in addition to “oxidative stress, inflammatory pathway activation.”
My drawback, as a peasant and a citizen, is that I’m by myself with figuring it out! I belief the precept of science, I simply don’t belief the establishments and the myopic institution scientists! To sum it up, this video from 1947 explains how I really feel in 2022 in regards to the missionaries:
The place Is Graphene Discovered Now and Probably within the Future?
Nicely, all over the place, seemingly — and never simply in sensors, antennas, nanotubes, and varied medical functions, together with some injections.
It’s in facemasks (see additionally right here).
And in paint.
And in automotive inferiors.
And in sustainable adhesives.
And in computing.
And in batteries.
And in clothes. See additionally right here.
And probably in vitality manufacturing.
And in enriching uranium.
And in “biometric delicate pores and skin.”
And in heating wallpaper.
And in building on the whole.
And in diagnostics. (See additionally right here.)
And in “good orthodontics.”
And, sort of, in decarbonization.
And here’s a case of grinding used face makes into powder to make higher concrete (no remark right here).
And a case of spying on the beforehand unaccountable micro organism.
What in regards to the vaccines?
Advance Vaccine Tech Is Not a Conspiracy Concept
The mainstream media likes to mock the “loopy conspiracy theorists.” However notions like “nanotech in vaccines,” “self-spreading vaccines,” or “graphene oxide in vaccines” aren’t conspiracy theories — however well-documented notions which might be talked about in official research and paperwork — simply not essentially within the context of the COVID injections.
Graphene-Primarily based Supplies in Medication, Together with in Vaccines
A 2019 article in “Science Every day” referred to as, “Graphene can hear your mind whisper”:
“A newly developed graphene-based implant can file electrical exercise within the mind at extraordinarily low frequencies and over giant areas, unlocking the wealth of data discovered under 0.1 Hz.”
A 2021 paper referred to as, “Intranasal vaccination with influenza HA/GO-PEI nanoparticles gives immune safety in opposition to homo- and heterologous strains” that talks a few new investigational intranasal influenza vaccine with graphene oxide:
“Two-dimensional (2D) graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles have nice potential as a novel vaccine platform attributable to their extraordinary attributes.”
And whereas we’re being conspiratorial, um, sorry life like, let’s briefly contact upon the loopy matters of self-assembling vaccines and nano-sized communicational networks, a few of which (not all however some) use graphene supplies.
Self-Assembling Nanoparticle Vaccines
Here’s a 2018 brochure by the NIAID Vaccine Analysis Heart (PDF). They’re speaking about self-assembling nanoparticles as a mechanism utilized in new influenza vaccines.
Here’s a 2019 ‘Testimony earlier than the Home Committee on Power and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations’ by no apart from Anthony Fauci (PDF). He’s speaking about self-assembling nanoparticles vaccines!
Right here is from Rice College (not within the context of vaccines although): “Nanotubes assemble! Rice introduces ‘Teslaphoresis.'”
“These nanotube wires develop and act like nerves, and managed meeting of nanomaterials from the underside up could also be used as a template for functions in regenerative drugs … There are such a lot of functions the place one may make the most of robust power fields to regulate the conduct of matter in each organic and synthetic methods.”
A 2019 article, titled: “Aerosolized Nanobots: Parsing Truth from Fiction for Well being Safety — A Dialectical View.”
“Nanoscalar robotics can be utilized as each sensors and receiver-delivery units, and the controllability of those applied sciences allow their directed exercise in organic organisms. Such units — both working in tandem as distinct sense-and-engage methods, or as single units with each sense and supply modes — could possibly be employed to evaluate, reply to, or modify molecular and chemical traits of a organic goal.
As latest research have indicated, these approaches can be utilized in scientific care to extra exactly monitor tissue, organ, and total bodily states and to change the construction and performance of organic tissues and methods at quite a lot of scales, from the subcellular to the systemic and organismic.”
A 2015 paper out of Forth Institute of Pc Science in Greece, titled (I child you not) “CORONA: A Coordinate and Routing system for Nanonetworks.” The paper is a few topology of nano communication networks probably to be used inside residing beings:
“Advances in nanotechnology allow the event of tiny machines from nanoscale elements, specifically nanomachines. Composed of an influence provide, a reminiscence, an antenna and a CPU module, nanomachines are solely autonomous nodes that are capable of carry out easy operations and talk in brief distances.
At the moment, miniature graphene based mostly antennas are launched giving nanomachines the power to attain excessive transmission charges over very brief distances when working in essentially the most promising working spectrum of Terahertz Band. Such networks are anticipated to be broadly deployed in quite a lot of fields, comparable to biomedicine, business, setting and the army.
Communication amongst nanomachines is evolving within the course of ad-hoc networks attributable to their traits: the power to be reconfigurable and self-organized. Nevertheless, the extreme restrictions of nano-nodes when it comes to computational energy, reminiscence and vitality, mixed with the anticipated excessive variety of nano-nodes per community, give rise to completely different protocols and networking design points.
The important thing problem in nano- architectures and protocols is to take care of simplicity with out compromising the connectivity and lifelong of the nanonetwork.”
Here’s a Harvard Journal article from 2011:
“Think about with the ability to sign an immune cell to generate antibodies that might battle micro organism and even most cancers. That fictional chance is now a step nearer to actuality with the event of a bio-compatible transistor the dimensions of a virus.
Hyman professor of chemistry Charles Lieber and his colleagues used nanowires to create a transistor so small that it may be used to enter and probe cells with out disrupting the intracellular equipment. These nanoscale semiconductor switches may even be used to allow two-way communication with particular person cells.”
And right here’s from Science:
“Extra just lately, Lieber’s Harvard lab has shifted gears to combine nanowires with biology. In 2017, for instance, he reported creating delicate, versatile 3D nanowire mesh that could possibly be injected into the brains or retina of animals, unfurl and wrap round neurons, and snoop on {the electrical} communication between cells.”
And so forth. and many others. What I’m making an attempt to say is that these aren’t conspiracy theories! And the purpose will not be being petrified of the truth that the scientists found a fabric with fascinating properties, or that know-how provides new alternatives — however that we’re dominated by the soulless maniacs, and that they may abuse any know-how!
And the loopy conduct on our behalf can be to close our eyes and ears and hold whispering, “Secure and efficient,” regardless of the uncertainty and even the proof on the contrary.
PS. We the peasants are getting uninterested in this. Our masters hold promising us fantastic progress and new cures, and so they sound so excited, and so they get us so excited — after which we attempt their cures and unusually, we get sicker, after which the cures cease working, and in the mean time, our properties get extra polluted, and our our bodies get extra loaded with poisons, and it’s nonetheless not even clear to us how they’re planning to wash up all these futuristic nanomaterials and cures from our our bodies if it doesn’t work out … have they even considered it?
We’re not so certain. So in the end, we’re rising uninterested in their commercial. We’re “hesitant” as a result of we not imagine our masters.
