Ironically, people who hate listening to the government are making decisions based solely on what the government is saying by always doing the opposite.
Do you believe in the benevolent politician? Could you legit name one benevolent congressman from your country? Because I'd have to sit down and think for maybe 30 minutes. I am jealous of you because of your faith and goodwill.

Besides the silly notion that govt has your best interest as its motivation, the thought that it can actually efficiently and positively effect change is even more comical.

No, I make decisions independent of the government- I don't let their positions sway me one way or the other.

Politicians are mostly pretty easy and transparent. They're like people motivated by money in banking: it's all over their faces, and if you know that it gets a lot easier.

You know what they're usually aiming for, and that's usually political survival.

Lmao fuck the government. I trust scientists and they're not siding with anti vaxxers.

But vaccine mandates are the ultimate violation of rights.
Not really. And plenty of vaccines are already mandatory as it is. Mandatory vaccines without proper democratic control, that is the ultimate violation.

Working in the halls of UC Berkeley as a Bioengineering PhD student, I can attest that there are tentured faculty and researchers who are clearly brain damaged individuals.

Yes, we need to allow in dissenting voices to catch the small percentage of events that the sheep are ignoring. But the success rate on most "different opinion" doctors is worse than dying of Covid. Most end up like the Riverside docs (Dan Erickson and Artin Massih) who were quickly revealed to be complete whack jobs, but only after they accumualted 5 million YouTube views.

The attention these outliers get is way outside of the weights that their validity ever deserves. Everyone is entitled to an opinion. But unvetted extremists get way more attention for who they are and what they represent, not any underlying truths to what they are actually saying. This is a bad social problem

This aint march 2020, we are not about every life is sacred bullshit, the success of the differring opinion or any opinion is in coming up with the best way to mitigate this. This is not going away, we are not going to erradicate it, it will kill many more, so let's stop with the silly what about the grandmas.

The bad social problem is people still defending this so called consensus, after they have been wrong about almost everything so far, science is evidence based not consensus based, this is not pychoLOLgy.
