    Don't take this quotation seriously. It's just Oscar Wilde being humorous. He's showing that he can laugh at himself. There's nothing deep in what he said.

    Nurse in Tennessee fainted after receiving COVID vaccine

    Question: why should we take it if it has such side effects?

    Nurse in Alaska had anaphylactic shock

    Trump and Biden are in cahoots to chip everyone via needles on the vaccines

    5G will kill vaccinated

    Population control = depopulation = Georgia Guide stones 500 million max population

    LA RESISTANCE ! ! !

    Doctor Fauci = son of Mother Theresa; Theresa supplied Jeffrey Epstein's island with kids to fondle with

    Adrenochrome will be extracted from dissidents in underground re-education camps; dissidents were taken there (when electricity was turned off for a few days) at 4AM after drone with scopolamine gassed them (Project Pogo and Project Zyphr)...

    Project Pogo = gov't shills Alex Jones, Qanon, Adam Green, etc. tell you something funny and you comment or like, then you'll be exterminated under Project Zyphr... David Goldberg revealed this and other stuff (like how Trump converted to Judaism) and he got executed..

    Source(s): COVID = COW ID; World Bank website says that Project COVID is from April 2nd, 2020 until 31st of March, 2025. According to the Last Prophet (aka incarnated ARCHANGEL URIEL aka saint healer VYACHESLAV KRASHENINNIKOV) if the last descendant rejects mark of the beast, then his/her direct ancestors go to permanent heaven. To reject mark of the beast, one needs to hide within a 10-15 people group without electronics/documents. Documents are from Satan; burn them. Electronics can be used to track you and to show the antichrist (even on old broken unplugged TV set from 1970's using Tesla's ether); forgive me.

    This is just an example of "self-deprecating humor". He says he is not smart enough to see the meaning in what he is saying, or the meaning that others might see in what he is saying. This is somewhat similar to the famous Baseball catcher Yogi Berra when he said, "I didn't say everything that I said." Meaning, people wrongly attribute sayings to him that he really did not say.

    In other words he's not smart at all. But just showing off. Other wise it doesn't make any sence.

    He was bragging about how clever he thought he was. You know how some professors are kind of smug about how much they know, and how, when they teach it they kind of make it hard for some students who aren't catching on? That was what Wilde's meaning was. He thought he was just that clever.
