Its utterly pathetic. If someone said, " I got paid $1000 per toddler " I would have more respect than someone just uttering random personal achievements. I makes me recall, “The rules are simple: they lie to us, we know they're lying, they know we know they're lying, but they keep lying to us, and we keep pretending to believe them.” From the viewpoint of someone aware of this, obviously having taken place in history, but unable to comprehend themselves are being " Taken unawares " The bias is confounding and its hard to believe there is someone inside thinking these thoughts. Its scary to contemplate the emptiness inside people sometimes. | |||

But, in the end, it doesn't matter what you think or believe at all. Reality is always right. You can stomp your feet and swear that you can fly, but if you step off a cliff, gravity will kill you just the same. If you don't test your beliefs against reality and then change them when you find out they don't match reality, it'll kill you. At the start of the pandemic, I changed my mind. I thought the virus was just gonna be a bad flu season. I thought all the panic was overblown. But then people started dying so fast they had no place to store the bodies. Ordinary folks were dropping like flies and people like my parents were being hit the hardest. So I changed my mind about it for my parents and other people's parents. And as far as vaccines? That shit has been settled for two centuries. The technology is as old as toilet paper. Saying you don't believe in vaccines is like saying you don't believe in wiping your ass. | |||

The fine print is it could be argued that getting over covid easier due to being vaccinated might involve releasing fewer droplets into an environment (due less severe symptoms) so maybe in that regard someone being vaccinated could slightly protect those around from catching it but that would probably only be for those living in your household It’s not your fault that you believed getting the vaccine meant you wouldn’t spread covid, this is something we were all told. This always seemed odd to me, because the body still needs to catch covid to beat it. And if the vaccine is causing the body to beat covid so handily, with so few symptoms, then it would make you wonder if you would be MORE likely to spread covid due to not even realizing you have it I think there are a lot of hypotheticals with all of it, including lockdowns and masks | |||

But one thing the vaccine does do as a happy side effect (if more people get a shot) is it reduces the length of the disease, which would inherently reduce the rate of transmission. If you're sick for a month VS just a week, you're gonna be more likely to spread it more. But I'll wait for you to throw up another false strawman. | |||

I would imagine if they were as sick as a month of covid would be, that they would follow orders to quarantine regardless. So like I said, it could help to protect those in the household Another scenario: a very healthy person gets vaccinated. They probably would have easily gotten over covid without the vaxx with only 1 day of fever. Now with the vaxx, they don’t get the fever, and think they just have a small cough. So they don’t get tested and instead go to work. That’s a scenario where getting over symptoms easier became a bad thing, in regards to virulence That’s why I said there’s a lot of hypotheticals | |||

You can buy off a scientist just like you can buy off a politician.
The problem is, the truth always comes out. Watch all those soccer players drop on the field. | ||

I am not really talking about someone being paid off, as they have a reason. Or someone being intimidated, as they have a reason. Its more the miasma of arrogance surrounded the servants of the rulers as they cite personal merit as a blind cover for any opposition. More akin to a feudal lord slapping a servant for looking at him, that sort of folly.
