    What people say in public sometimes matter. While you can’t specifically say Q or DD killed any one person with their comments, it is fair to say that the sum total of all of the disinformation rhetoric has likely killed hundreds of thousands.

    It is strange that these guys can say all kinds of stuff, and it’s a big shrug to you, but if you call them stupid, that’s a moral affront. But they either are literally stupid, or else they are intentionally spreading stuff they know if false (which clearly Fox News does). Calling them stupid is giving them the benefit of the doubt.

    You’re just spouting misinformation. If you can provide proof this was orchestrated by the admin with a link I’m all eyes. But of course you can’t because it wasn’t. Anyone with a brain knows there is zero chance Kamala would be without a mask if they were requiring the child to. So link it up or keep melting.

    Disinformation…LOL!

    Disinformation was ignoring risk factors across groups. Disinformation was ignoring natural immunity. Disinformation was making up some made up social distance. Disinformation was knowing masks don’t work yet saying they do. Disinformation is telling a young healthy person they need a shot that does not stop them from getting a disease that is not dangerous to them. Disinformation goes right back to seroprevalence that said most had Covid and we continue to ignore natural immunity.

    There’s nothing more to say. You keep repeating the same incorrect shit and I’m just calling you out again. I’ll do it next time too. You are completely incorrect.

    One other note - hilarious that Q is now attacking social distancing. Because your proximity to a sick person has no bearing on whether or not you get infected. Arguably his dumbest position yet. Amazing really.

    It’s consistent through. This all about his unwillingness to modify his behavior in any way shape or form for the greater good.

    Actually…the data and record speaks for itself. You can continue to be consumed by the propaganda if you choose. Most have moved on and see this as I do.

    LOL! While completely made up and not based in science. I actually like the social distancing outcome. More space is nice. But did it slow or stop the spread. Not one but. It was made up science.

    Literally just made up.

    The data does speak for itself, such as vaccinated suffer less cardiac events after infection, less hospitalization, and less death. The vaccinated also have lower viral loads, recover quicker, and are less contagious than the unvaccinated. Yes, that data does speak, but it certainly doesn't support any of your positions. So, why aren't you listening to the data? And worse yet, believe the data does support your position, when clearly, it does not!

    agree. The whole ant-vax, anti-science theme we see here, especially when Covid was raging, could have a direct impact and negatively influence the health of others.

    This 100%. Don’t arrogantly post misinformation, act like a jack wagon when confronted with this misinformation, and continue to propagate flat out lies and fallacies and I’ll stop “bullying” you. Just another right wing snowflake.

    The data showed a young healthy person does not need to cause inflammation in their body unnecessarily. If you want to do that…go for it. There is a reason there is no studies on SMI and MI for that matter. Then you throw in the possible auto immune issues.

    There is a reason the vast majority of people are no longer taking these shots. And that is with advertising daily for them with the idiots at the cdc and fda pushing them.

    You will get there eventually.

    Show your data sources, please. Because again, I can show you multiple studies that show the vaccine reduces severe outcomes for all ages, 12 and up. Under 12, data isn't as obvious. And again, the data also shows even those with one dose of vaccine has significantly lowered their chances of a cardiac event. Which would include SMI and MI, which last time I looked, are cardiac events.

    You have no data backing up your opinions. None. The fact that the uniformed masses are on your side isn't a solid argument. It only shows the continued death of expertise in this country, which is sad.

    There is a balance to be had. Reasonable opinions should be respected, and to a degree people should keep an open mind regarding data or information that differs from what is common knowledge. But when flat out disinformation is repeatedly pushed in spite of being presented with correct information I feel no obligation to respect those opinions or those people. I may choose to, or I may not.

    Good post and it has been a two way street but I'll just say this. I don't disagree completely with some of Qs stances. Some. Mainly regarding taking more of a scalpel approach even in the beginning when precautions should have been directed toward higher risk groups. I don't agree with his disregard for the randomness in severity that it struck with and while I don't agree with mandates I think he dismisses with great insensitivity to those people outside of the high risk groups that suffered the worst effects of the virus.

    The disrespect was a two way street by some here but ill also add that Q has spammed nearly every single post with funny emojis or "LOLs" if they opposed his views even those that were relatively neutral politically. Emojis and LOLs shouldn't offend anyone but it is a way to communicate disrespect and complete disregard for actual debate. Not too sympathetic about anyone here playing a victim of bullying.

    LOL. Someone is triggered. The admin did tell the girl to mask up because they’ve been doing for a few years now. Sorry you are so bent out of shape about the truth. Until you prove she did it on hee own I’ll go with the admin made her do it.
