Outrageous, factually unsupportable utterances by Fauci, Bidet, et al drive me up a wall. I have lost count of the times I fired up Excel or my HP-12c or my phone calculator to validate some numeric claim or quote, and come up rejecting the object of my numerical assault. My math skills are better since Jan 2020, but my patience for sensationalism is non-existent.
Now, there is always a place for speculation. Of course, it's possible this lot of messenger RNA shots can cause nasty side-effects down the road.... as I posted elsewhere, since 2000 about 59% of vaccine clinical trials failed, with a median length of nine years. But speculation couched as "science" is wretched, regardless if it supports my team.
Many of us detest Dubya nowadays. But in 2004, you risked getting zotted if you yellow carded him. And, to be fair, Lurch was an awful alternative. So many made a political decision to look the other way at Dubya's failures and re-elect him. And I guess that was ok.
But nowadays...well...
I agree, while there are horrible people cheering for the unvaccinated to die, there are some ghouls who smile when someone who got the shots passes away. Many of us have friends and family who've had these shots, many of whom did it out of fear or to defend their livelihood. I don't want those who took the shots - including JimRob - to suffer. Taking these shots should be a voluntary decision, not with the business end of an OSHA mandate or a pink slip staring you in the face.
I think anti-vaxx sensationalism is as wrong as looking the other way at Dubya's failures in 2004. Your mileage may vary.
Interesting assumptions, which in general I share. But....
“Anti-vaxx” is a very large portrait compared to being skeptical about a phase three, continuing clinical trial with legal liability shields for experimental mRNA product(s), in which mandating participation in an official experiment is somehow deemed morally good while skepticism is morally bad.
I hope I haven't shown “sensationalism” in my posts of simple arithmetic and official data.
I am several times vaccinated in my life, including for the bubonic plague during the Vietnam era courtesy of the US Army. On another subject, if your HP12c is among the first, you have a somewhat historical critter. I have among my collection an HP-35 in its gray protective plastic box. We must be getting old.....
I’m in favor of the decision to vaccinate being a personal decision between patient and a doctor who is actually practicing medicine, and not just a progaganda puppet for the plandemic.
The shot may be 1) the best solution for many individuals, or it may be 2) the path to injury or death for others.
Problem is, you don’t know until you play Injection Roulette how it will turn out for oneself.
So it comes down to what kind of personal resources the individual has to fall back on in case of incapacity due to the vaxx, or what kind of preparations or readiness the individual may have accomplished in case of sudden death from a vaxx.
Mandates are not science. Vaxx mandates are tyranny.
Thanks for the post Doodle
I think Jim’s position is correct.
Seemed to have missed his post on this so thanks for posting it.
He recognizes the argument for and against. Kudos.
We’re allowed to freely express ourselves here which is why I donate every quarter now to keep the lights on.
Feels totally different to the Dubya situation back in the day (I was a lurker *cough* ... )
Hope you have a good weekend.
