Look through the person’s comment history, either they’re the most dedicated liar in history or Occam’s razor would like a word.

Comment history reads as fake to me.

Single purpose, 9 months old account. Only mentions being a doctor ~3 months ago, and then consistently mentions it.

As someone who has been around doctors their entire life, the poster is for sure lying. The posts are written like fanfics and do not have much scientific insight, which you generally get out of people in the profession. The posts being so focused on Q and on unvaccinated people makes it seem like the user clearly has an agenda. I would point more specific details but I don’t have the time to go through several pages of comment history.

I can’t believe anyone wouldn’t see through this and see it is clearly fabricated by someone who has a lot of time on their hands (which Reddit trolls sure have), unless you’re a teen or younger. Hacker News, please do better and see through this BS. It is a facade meant to divide us. (I am pro-vaccination, but I can’t stand people who are for cause but have to lie to make a point).

Quoting myself from elsewhere in this thread:

> Speaking of Occam’s Razor, if someone claims to be certain a person is lying yet provides simply “believe me” as evidence, the simplest explanation is that the accuser is lying.

I'm aware, they created the account at the start of the pandemic. I've never been on reddit but I doubt they're the most dedicated liar in history. Reddit is a breeding ground for sockpuppets and astroturfing. Don't believe everything you read.

You're not setting yourself up to be the most credible source here...

What about your history here? Your most recent submission was flagged dead.

Speaking of Occam’s Razor, if someone claims to be certain a person is lying yet provides simply “believe me” as evidence, the simplest explanation is that the accuser is lying.

... where did they say 14 years?

edit: the post above literally says they've never been on reddit, why am I getting downvotes for this?

Re:My career of treating patients has ended by desdiv on Tuesday December 21, 2021 @01:03AM (#29634470)
Two different replies to the same post both quoted the phrase "I've been on reddit for 14 years, trust me", so presumably that phrase had been in the original post, but has since been deleted via an edit.

Since two people quoted the same text it means that the GP maliciously edited the comment after some time to remove the reference to 14 years.

You have nothing—zero—to back up your argument.

So please. Don't ask us to trust you when you give us no reason to. Instead, you could just support your argument.

Not sure I see what you're seeing - Account created in early 2020, only started posting 9 months ago, all posts in QAnonCasualties.
