I am calling for scientific studies. More data to justify our actions and guide our decisions. You are...calling me hysterical.

Please -- you're not being silenced, you are not some martyr, people are just disagreeing with you.

For the record: I wasn't talking about me. There has been actual censorship throughout 2020. A lot of it, across all social-media platforms.

I'm sure the downvoting here has nothing to do with the fact that comments get sorted to the bottom and grayed out.

Would you stop with the hysteria? You're getting downvoted not only because people disagree with you, but also because you've managed to turn that disagreement into some kind of cause for martyrdom.

You really need to stop digging in.

People post scientific studies, and you repeatedly go back to the same person who has shown an obvious political bias against masks and vaccines to attempt to debunk them.

I'm just feeding into the problem by replying to you, but none of us can expect any discourse with you to be productive when you are working from a position that relies on believing someone acting in obvious bad faith.
