The clip in the video section is
and Bret Weinstein on the Darkhorse Podcast episode A Germ of Truth: The 263rd Evolutionary Lens. In it they discuss germ theory and terrain theory. It sparked me to want to write this article. The whole podcast episode is worth watching. They even talk about the dental issue, I slightly mentioned in another article. But this article is about the germ and terrain theories.From an AI description of Terrain Theory:
“Terrain theory, also known as the terrain hypothesis, is a concept that emphasizes the body's internal environment or "terrain" as the primary factor in health and disease. This theory, proposed by Antoine Béchamp in the 1850s, contrasts with the germ theory, which focuses on external pathogens such as bacteria and viruses as the main causes of disease.”
The Drama of Germ Theory
I would hope by now my readers could see how this relates to the Drama Triangle, but for anyone new… in the germ theory (which would include viruses), the germ or virus is a sort of “invisible” external “persecutor” that comes in attacks the human (a “victim”) who will then get sick from the attack and perhaps die1.
The doctors and the Big Pharma industry work diligently to become the “rescuer” or “savior” who can eradicate the evil villains and be seen to be heroes. The reason they chose this career was likely because they saw “victims” of diseases when they were younger, or felt like a “victim” themselves. Feeling as if they are helping people doesn’t just give them some good emotional “feels” (that don’t last) when there is a “success” but they can find that playing “Savior” is their meaning in life. I wrote about how exiting the rescuer role can be strenuous due to that loss of meaning.
I’ve written plenty about how many people view doctors, abortionists, and vaccines as “rescuers” or “saviors” in the Drama Triangle. If you’re a paid subscriber to The Drama of It All, you can ask me for a complimentary paid sub to my Law of Attraction (LOA) Substack where I have written about my different perspectives on health and illness. I don’t agree with the Bret or Heather about viruses attacking the body.
But the point Heather & Bret make about most people wanting the simplistic “persecutor” explanation is spot on! I once wrote that SJWs Choose the Impossible Over Uncomfortable to Get Change and this is true in this instance as well. Doctors see themselves as health justice warriors. They fight the viruses and germs. But no matter how many times they find a “cure” or “solution” humans keep getting sick.2 The “problem” mutates faster than we can catch up. They choose the impossible fight!
Why?
Because most don’t want to do the uncomfortable thing of fixing the terrain.
When I speak of terrain, however, I don’t just mean the terrain of the body. I mean the terrain of the mind and the emotions as well. I’ve written about emotions are tied to our beliefs. You can change your emotional reaction to news by changing your perspective or beliefs about it. These things matter to your terrain immensely because your thoughts and beliefs can put you into fight-or-flight mode which kicks you out of the relaxation mode (when the body’s immune system heals from dis-ease). It’s not until you can relax that your body can heal well as it was designed to.
The Drama Triangle of the Germ Theory keeps people in this fight-or-flight mode that continues the “victim” stance by keeping the body from ever truly healing. Whereas when you see your body as a terrain you can clean up (with good exercise, diet, sun, mindfulness, meditation, etc), you can relax. Your body can be less strained, and then it can heal naturally. You will be forced to face fear, however. That’s part of the healing process. It’s purificatory.
It’s far easier to blame a virus than your bad habits. It’s far easier to trust a doctor than God or yourself. People want a quick fix and they want to lean on “rescuers”. They abhor being told to take personal responsibility. That’s scary and possibly dangerous, and it’s certainly not what most other people are doing. So you’re going against the grain of society at large. You may even be dehumanized into an anti-vaxxer or a variety of other derogatory terms.
It’s very uncomfortable to switch your perspective, exit the germ theory Drama Triangle, and take personal responsibility. But, staying in the Drama Triangle, feeling like a victim and fighting germs and viruses is the impossible route. It’s time we learned our lessons, and fixed our terrains, body and minds.

Please see the article from Josh Slocum, Banishing death broke our minds or, how I knew Covidianism was a scam from the start if you haven’t.
“Humans will keep coming up with new diseases because the body is our gauge to know if something is going wrong with our thinking or spiritual/emotional/mental health. When we start showing symptoms, things aren’t going wrong, they’re going right…..The body will always figure out something to do to show us that something isn’t right and needs fixing (inside, not outside). We can’t think of diseases as some “persecutor” that we need to fight. We have to focus on listening to the messages that our body is trying to tell us.” - from my article, Can AI Health Systems "Save" us from diseases?
