    You seem bitter that I don’t share your religious beliefs.

    lt can be defined like when FoxNews settles a suit for, what was it, over half a billion dollars. Not that no one knew they were lying before they got sued.

    And when the pendulum shifts. And it always does. You’ll be the first to howl when they come with a muzzle. Disgusting.

    Yeah, I shouldn't criticize FoxNews or any other example. My bad!

    LOL, I ask you who should decide what constitutes misinformation. You say “but FOX!”

    That's just a word salad contrivance. Nothing in my post comes off as bitter.

    FWIW, god isn't real either.

    If you say so. That means we both believe in things that haven’t been proved.

    Most people know misinformation when they hear it, like they know a pile of shit when they see it.

    As to what to do about it, you obviously have no suggestions. I don't think anything can be done about it either, it's part of this country's democracy, which depends on information, going down the crapper. I see an eventual future of fascism, which has always had its appeal in the world, and which a sizeable part of Americans manifestly want, and which people like Trump and DeSantis are wanting to deliver.

    Of course I don’t have any suggestions. Crackdown on speech, in 2020, arguably killed multitudes. I say let it fly.

    If the had been 182 cases of Covid, in March 2020, the headline would have read “explosion” …

    Seems like there’s been a rise in “We don’t know what she had or why she died.” Just learned yesterday that a neighbor down the street had passed away.

    We didn’t know her very well but would see her walking from time to time, although we hadn’t seen her for quite awhile. Out of sight, out of mind.

    We were told that she lost the feeling in her leg, followed by lack of coordination. And in her final months she couldn’t speak, only texted.

    According to her daughter there has never been a diagnoses of any sort. Her doctors were puzzled the whole way.

    I guess your point (i.e. assumption) is that she died from the Covid vaccine.

    My theory is that you have some mighty incompetent doctors in your area.

    Interesting to see you resort to disinformation, even when it's decades old. Doctors smoke more Camels "according to a Nationwide survey." Does these cigarette advertisers ever name the survey? (Not that advertisers would make anything up.) I take it you don't have a doctor. And I don't blame you, there's no telling what he smokes.

    I’m just pointing out that doctors were the original quacks. And I don’t know that the situation has improved as more and more are dying from healthcare.

    Hmm. That might make a good movie. A thriller about doctors called "Death Merchants." Or a comedy about Dr. Kildare called "Dare to Kill."

    Culpability for excess deaths ranked: (1) public health (2) media (3) governments.

    Aside: upwards of 30,000 iatrogenic deaths in Apr 2020 alone.

    What is an excess death? Is that like collateral damage?

    Before public health, media (?), and governments (outside of warfare) as causes of death, I would rank natural causes, accidents, and murder.

    Deaths in excess of what can be expected after factoring in population growth. Stands at around 1.2 million since 2020 with life expectancy haven taken a sharp sip.

    At my age I'm going to concentrate on living and not on excess death.

    And from now on I'll go see my doctors with my fingers crossed.
