Inside the mind of one of my very smart pro-vax friends
substack.com ^ | August 22, 2022 | Steve Kirsch

Here's how they think. It's 100% based on deference to authority. If you ask them for data to back up their claims, they stop responding.

 
 
Ask the Expert: Social media's impact on vaccine hesitancy | MSUToday |  Michigan State University

I recently talked to a friend of mine at a recent social event. We’ll call him Bob. He’s super smart about most things. But when it comes to the vaccine, he’s blind to the truth.

He was bragging about how he has been vaxxed 6 times with the COVID vax and he’s perfectly healthy. He can’t wait for SB 866 in California to pass so when his kids turn 12, they can decide to get the vaccine over their mother’s objections.

Bob thinks I’m a nut case, cherry picking data. He says I used to be respected, but after turning anti-vax, people have lost all respect for me. He said I have a religious belief about the vaccine and I’m not driven by data.

What he isn’t telling anyone is that he’s been losing his vision ever since he got his first COVID vaccine. He used to have 20/20 vision, but now he wears glasses and can’t drive at night. When I brought up the data showing the connection between the shots and vision loss, he changed the topic.

I showed him two papers showing the more you vaccinate, the sicker you get (see the two papers here). I asked, “Where are the papers that show the opposite?” He ignored my request.

He gets his belief system from the mainstream media. Full stop. He reasons that if I was correct, surely Bill Gates would agree with me and admit they goofed. It’s 100% deference to authority.

So you are asking me to prove your statements. You have thus confessed you do not know.
My work is done here. You sir have been shown to be a liar because you just now rely on someone else to provide you the definitive information for or against.

I don’t have to prove your statement wrong. It is up to you to prove it right. You cannot

You are exposed for all to see. It is why we are exhorted by our Savior to let our Yes be our yes and no be our no. For when you engage in dishonest behavior or rapidly snowballs.

The fact is you said something bad gospel truth you cannot back up. Your credibility is lost.

One could make an honest statement as in i sont think you are… but the definitive statement that I am lying means someone is speaking with authority. It is always just to ask for someone to back up their statements or fact.

Fair point. But the burden of proof is on you to prove you are a doctor, and you refuse to be 'doxxed'. In other words, you can't won't prove it.

But nice try bagster. I don’t but the rhetorical device is shifting the conversation when getting your ass kicked.

Post 94 states I am not a doctor. It is not up to me to prove that which someone else as said.

No, trickster. It's up to you to prove what YOU said. This is the most important point in this conversation. Do not overlook it.

You have said something as a fact. Back it up.

So have you. Do you really not see the irony?

C'mon, gassie. Put that big brain to work here. You are starting to be frustrating.

You are not as clever as you think. Let’s examine your words . Yours is mostly truthful. Do you admit to not always being truthful?

And you believe mine to be mendacious. So you in one sentence have admitted to being mostly but not always truthful and holding a belief but no proof that I am mendacious You present s fact that you know you are mostly honest and therefore sometimes dishonest while holding a believe as to me which by definition means you cannot prove

Not much else to say.

The difference between I can back it up and chosing not to publicly publish it are not mutually exclusive.

See the threads of others. Because I choose not to pinkish herein my name address and diplomas does not mean I am lying. But I can also love with the liars who proclaim their intent to harm doubting me

But you lose the nuance. Roving has run away like a little girl. The others have stated definitively what I am. So they either need to correct it to in their opinion Which frames them as a liar as they must back pedal or produce the goods. I insist. They have said what I a not which means they have knowledge. Let’s see it.

No, yours.

This paragraph is bereft of logic. You just now confessed that your word is not good enough as proof of what you say is true. C'mon, man. You are losing this exchange badly, sirrah.

In the interest of fair play, I believe what I believe about you. But the fact is, it's just my opinion based on your word and is not (and cannot be), proof of authenticity. Surely you have to admit that.

Or maybe I'm too trusting a sucker and believe in the general goodness of man. Me and Ransomnote have this debate often.

this muddled train of thought comes from a doctor?

as ignorant and corrupt as the chinee crud proved American doctors to be, I still don't they're as stupid as you represent!

You cannot have it all ways. You are anonymous… no one can definitively verify your expertise. Likewise are your detractors.
You are in no position to call those who criticise your opinions as ‘liars’.
Your evidence is open to discernment and criticism.
Your claim of being a Dr. likewise open to discernment and criticism.
You choose to place yourself here and others choose to believe or disbelieve you. Real world consequences of unloading and representing ‘professional’ opinions under cover of anonymity.

So how does anybody know you can back it up? Cause you say so? Facts not in evidence. My objection will be sustained and the jury instructed to disregard it.

See the threads of others. Because I choose not to pinkish herein my name address and diplomas does not mean I am lying.

Interestingly, it does not prove you are telling the truth. The people who said 'you are not a doctor' have given you their reasons for saying so. Don't be so mad at people who refuse to take you at your anonymous word. Not everybody's such a soft touch as me.

Roving has run away like a little girl.

Don't be so quick to accuse people of running away like a little girl, Mister "don't ever post to me forever and ever amen".

...as they must back pedal or produce the goods. I insist.

Just as they insist you produce the goods.

Okay, let's do this. I work for the US State Department and I am willing to mediate this confrontation, which is going nowhere. Let's avoid a Forever War.

You continue to explain that you are a doctor, without evidence, and they continue to doubt you and say you're not. Everybody wins and further bloodshed is prevented. The carnage stops. You save your face, lessen your chances of having a stroke, and save on lawyer fees.

Now sign here.

You are one very disturbed woman (I think.) I think you are quite drunk and you should go sleep it off. No real physician would respond so defensively or spend so much time on this. This is embarassing and absolutely ridiculous!

I’m quite fed up with your nonsense, and I hope there are no gullible FReepers here that take you seriously. I only posted a response to you in the first place because I don’t want anyone to make any health decisions based on what you post.

There are some possibly good reasons to take the jab, I suppose. I know quite a number of people who are doing quite well after 2 shots and a booster, and doing just as well as friends who have not gotten it. On the other hand, my neighbor died 3 days after getting her booster but she was not in good health. Was the jab contributory? I don’t know but I find it quite disturbing.

There is absolutely no medication, no innoculatin, on the face of this earth that does not have side effects. Even a shot of normal saline could cause a problem for someone somewhere.

One more thing Gas_Quack, I think you are another personality, the most pretentious yet, of the confused and ill-informed child from Alberta Canada.

We are wasting our breath trying to convince the pro vaxers that they screwed up.

I agree totally.

But I am a man of many subtleties and I play a many layered game. My gung fu is of the highest quality. I would explain it, but that might give up the game.

I invented 'good cop, bad cop', by the way. Think about it.
