Trust the science. Btw, my name is Science ;)

No, we're not talking about cover ups. We're talking about studying the virus and it escaping by accident. Also, there is a history of lab leaks so it stands to reason...
Most people that died were 60+ years old
Link to data?
Do you have a link or more information regarding the pyramid block formation?

They decided that they publish too much misinformation and self censored ;)
Re:Facebook-owned sites were down on Monday October 04, 2021 @01:44PM (#28750022)
Well, those comments have been deleted now... I guess someone's boss didn't like the unofficial updates going out? :)
It's easy. They have to hold themselves accountable for their own (weekly?) mistakes. People would trust them again (imo) if they called themselves out and proactively fixed their mistakes.
Re:Vaccine experts: Covid-19 booster shots aren't needed now on Tuesday September 14, 2021 @11:00AM (#28525889)
This doesn't make sense. Do you have a source that says repeated exposure increases your odds of serious disease?
Re:Vaccine experts: Covid-19 booster shots aren't needed now on Tuesday September 14, 2021 @10:50AM (#28525715)
So your assumption is that all the covid patients were unvaccinated?
Yeah, definitely blame unvaccinated people instead of our broken healthcare system. That makes 100% sense /s
I think you have that backwards? For thousands of years, you were only told what the people in power wanted you to know. With the invention of the internet, free information flow became the default. I think this may be the first time in history that an average person can come to their own conclusions. The problem is that we've never had free speech to this extent before. It's a new problem that hasn't been solved yet. I just don't think that censorship is the answer but a regression to the old ways.

And every person you don't infect?

"Being a comedian does not magically relieve a person from their responsibility to not credulously spread around dangerous pseudoscience during a pandemic."

Yeah, I think it does. Has he been cancelled? Nope. Does he stop making jokes about almost anything? Nope. Do you listen to his podcast? Nope.

You know how he became so popular? From talking and being open minded. That's _all_ he does. He ain't doing it to be an influencer yet "journalists" actually waste time writing articles like this. I guess the haters need something to read too?

This is why I'm unvaccinated... low risk
Re:NYC to mandate proof of vaccination for many indoor settings on Wednesday August 04, 2021 @08:45PM (#28068357)
Yes, because no one ever breaks the rules of the road right? I mean, you've never driven over the speed limit? Parked in a non-parking space? Driven through a red light? Yes, what a great example lol.
Re:NYC to mandate proof of vaccination for many indoor settings on Wednesday August 04, 2021 @08:36PM (#28068286)
I'm feeling the same way.

Also, it's like the vaccine debate has turned into the same arguments as the pro-life/pro-choice debates.

We don't have long term data. That's all.

Do tell. What was I thinking?

"Reports of death after COVID-19 vaccination are rare. More than 342 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines were administered in the United States from December 14, 2020, through July 26, 2021. During this time, VAERS received 6,340 reports of death (0.0019%) among people who received a COVID-19 vaccine."

That nobody knows the real truth, duh
"This is as much about calling out heretics as it is about health"

Yes exactly. You can see it happening in these comments right now :)

What's the point of a right if it can't be exercised?
Hahaha this cannot be a real comment
Re:Treating the Unvaccinated on Sunday July 18, 2021 @04:32PM (#27876425)
Wait a second, you think everyone that hasn't been vaccinated is "willfully ignorant"?

Bruh, c'mon, anyone can look at the numbers and come to their own conclusions (until complete censorship takes that option away). I mean, have you not had coworkers disagree with you about how to implement or do something? If the choice is made to use their idea instead of yours, are you secretly hoping for the project to fail?

I can understand why you may think science is only on "paper", but discussions are happening on YT and I think it is only going to increase over time.
Go on... I'm listening ;)

Do you think the fact that no one on the "outside" knows how it works may be the reason for that? Also, do you think that if we did know how it works from the inside that we would agree with you?

You've just described the job description of "politician" ;)
If a quarter of the people on planet Earth using Facebook isn't enough, is there a threshold in which you WOULD call it a public square? Just curious.
