The same people will vote for politicians who will allow them to win at the expense of others, just consider that.

We know that all reports of side-effects will be false because the emotional and political implications if any of them were to be true are just too much to bear.

You could make the exact same claim about a flat earth rally.

TL;DR: you're testing for likability and other emotional response.

The information you so generously "shared" was not helpful. You intentionally spread it in a misleading way, and at this point enough counter-evidence has been provided to you that you must know you were wrong, which means you are

> However the main purpose of a vaccine is herd immunity. This is false when it comes to the COVID-19 vaccines under development. They do not—and are not meant to—prevent people from contracting and spreading the virus. They only reduce

At this point, the autoimmune dangers of vaccines are well understood but the autoimmune dangers of COVID-19 aren't. Doesn't that mean it's safer to avoid the vaccine, until that situation changes? In fact it's exactly

> And for COVID-19 the risks are very high. Do you have an actual source for that? People keep repeating it over and over but I've seen no evidence that COVID-19 carries particularly high risk compared to other infectious diseases.

What about people in the risk group(s) for vaccine side-effects? E.g., people with autoimmune issues. Does their safety matter less than yours? (Assuming you're advocating for vaccinating others; if you're just advocating for vacc

The core thing to understand about Windows leadership over the past decade is that the mobile product went so well that when the project was clearly dying, all Windows leadership was fired so the mobile folks could take their place. No joke

So... There's no need to issue ccw permits for people to perform their job because people who need ccw permits for their job already have them? That is brilliant reasoning; you must work for the government.

Neat trick: Agents of the state demand quid pro quo for the performance of basic and necessary state functions, then the state prosecutes citizens for complying with these demands. Heads I win, tails you lose.

You claim to disagree with GP comment but nothing in your comment even comes close to addressing its main points, unless I'm much mistaken. Indeed, the only points of contact between the comments I can find is where you agree with GP c

Indeed, the real value of the hamburger method seems to be in making it difficult for the recipient to engage in productive conversation about the negative feedback, which the giver may find difficult.

I think we can pretty safely conclude that any data saying blue cities have it worse than bumfuck nowhere towns must be misleading or manipulated. It just doesn't line up with what we know about education levels and compliance levels.

Does COVID also inflict old age/Alzheimer's on its victims?

by svrb 6y ago
Yes, yes, but it's probably only those which are misattributed. There is no evidence that any of the other deaths are intentionally miscoded.

The biggest factor is almost certainly laws in many countries including the US which shield anyone and everyone involved in the making and distribution of a vaccine for COVID (or other pandemics) from any liability whatsoever for any and al

Anyone who still believes this came from a wet market is a conspiracy theorist. This was an accidental release of natural (but artificially-selected) virus from a lab studying SARS and related coronaviruses. Some of us have been saying this

Perhaps (and this is just a "perhaps" in search of where our beliefs diverge) I have the wrong idea not about the testing of the coronavirus vaccine - because I think I'm quite clear on the limitations of that - but rather th

I think there's a bit of history involved; there's also quite a bit of added complexity from the different science packs vs just launching rockets (though I've barely planed any unmodded since the current science pack recipes

This makes it seem like modules are strictly inferior, if you can't assign names to common requirements.
