Ah you mean that time before reddit was entirely hivemind?

The most valuable information on the Internet will always come from the chans.

You just need to be able to evaluate everything with critical thinking.

You know, that thing where you can reason about something without necessarily agreeing with it.

Please don't interpret this as bait. From my perspective a vast majority of people have embraced outsourcing their reason.

Things like fph exist exactly because people are told day in and day out that diabetes is healthy. Its perhaps the most ugly manifestation of the natural reaction to this polar opposite called body positivity. But banishing thought doesn't eradicate it. It simply validates all those driven away.

Sadly that is something vitally absent from borg based Internet.

I don't believe this deserves any serious consideration.

Some anonymous Swedish guy said that a virus was coming early next year in September 2019 and pleaded with people to not take the vaccine that would come in late 2020.

I don't know what point you're trying to make. The baseline rate for schizophrenia means I should expect about 24 million people saying equivalent things about each year.

That's as stupid as me assuming you were schizophrenic and ignoring your argument.

You have still completely failed to communicate whatever point you were trying to make. I have absolutely no idea what idea you were attempting to convey.

If you think that shows value, that just shows you don't know value.

Well what was the value? The prediction was wildly wrong, supposed to come from "a pharmaceutical company working with military op's in a west coast state." That's about as far from China as you can get.

And the conspiracy theory that the vaccines are the real toxic part is just dumb. We know from hospitalisation and ICU figures that people were getting sick well before a vaccine was delivered. Plus, it requires me to believe that everyone in NHS Scotland was lying to me for completely unknown reasons.

In order to believe in these theories I am required to shut off my brain and not think about what happened in other countries, other health services, even though there are plenty with full information in English. It's just daft.
