You can’t reason with someone who already believes something unreasonable. They have to come to a rational conclusion on their own; it has to be an epiphany of their own. Any evidence you present that goes against what they think is invalid while anything that seems to “confirm” their beliefs is gospel. It’s a combination of the confirmation bias and a lack of understanding that correlation does not equal causation (which is like the first thing they teach you in any basic statistics/research methods class).

I saw a guy on the internet that said “if you show people the facts they’ll adapt their position”. I linked him three studies which evidenced that this isn’t really the case due to selection bias and he replies that he thought the studies were flawed and maintained people change their mind when shown the facts.
I’m being hit by covid bureaucracy. I’m in Athens and am shortly returning to UK if the fires don’t interrupt air travel. I’m double vaxed, but I still need to have a test before travelling and book a second test to be taken after travelling, both the first test and booking of second test need to be evidenced on a passenger locator form. Although cases are still up in UK hospitalisation is way down, so thats good. Emergency department I visited in Athens was practically empty - the greeks all go to their family summer houses away from the city in August. Was pretty scary weaving through the fires to get back from our own summer getaway in the island Evia (you may have seen the video of the people escaping the town fire at Limni by ferry which was used to falsely claim the entire island was on fire). Vaccine seems to be doing it’s job of protecting vulnerable from getting super ill though not as good at preventing transmission as hoped. People seem bored of covid - I’ve always been a fan of the basic hygiene of frequent hand washing, personal space, catching/binning/killing coughs and sneezes, would take the flu shot if it were available to me, but people seem to have stopped caring about these things. Except for the bureaucracy, and some mask wearing (which being a clean freak I always admired in eastern nations) regular Joe seems back to normal. | ||

The dude that jerks off to people dressed up as animals and wants to get boned in the ass by an animal person has it all figured out

It's not much of a wonder people disbelieve the government. Every day they had a different story as to recommended social distancing, effectiveness of masks, effectiveness of the various vaccines, virus transmission methods, reopening timelines, etc. The truth isn't some grand conspiracy, but that they didn't know much and were making things up in an attempt to avoid panic. Now they are reaping what they sowed.

Thank you for researching this Raev. I've been an idiot trusting scientists that have studied this their whole lives. You and my new friends on Youtube showed me how to really do my own research and now I know the truth. It only took 4 hours of deep diving videos by trusted sources to know more than 100 years of "research"
I'm no longer a sheep. | ||

Recently I've been doing some painting around my home.
While mudding and sanding the walls I tried one of those face masks and the results spoke for themself. I had dust in my nose and it came in on the cheeks into my mouth. Those masks don't do shit. And sanding dust particles are much larger than virus size. I'm just being honest. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I have harped on masks not protecting you, They protect other people. But here is the thing. If it can't even keep dust out, how will it keep dust in?
