Over years on the platform I've built up a number of lists of people who I think have very interesting things to say on a number of topics. Where, outside of Twitter or a close replacement, could I find something like a thread delving into why Hollywood "antiwar" movies are actually usually a whitewash? https://twitter.com/mmabeuf/status/1324573014407729153

Maybe this isn't the way most people are using Twitter though, I would agree that being off the platform entirely would be better than just letting their algos serve up content to you and becoming addicted to the dopamine rush of likes and retweets.

Is there a recent randomized controlled trial covering the period where recent strains were dominant which I could reference in order to get an idea?

Then obviously something else would have to be the main cause of the bump in excess deaths that's been observed.

Do any of the epidemiologists/virologists who are saying this offer any thoughts as to why SARS-CoV-2 and the immune response to it are so different from every other novel virus which has emerged in the past? Is there any precedent at all for "a virus which reinfects you over and over with no reduction in lethality/sequelae from the repeat infections"?

This all sounds equally as feasible as simply rolling back the surveillance in the first place. The whole point of these systems is to subject the hoi polloi to constant and intrusive surveillance as a counterinsurgency tactic. Why in the world would they agree to do that to themselves as well?
