Mark Twain is often misattributed as saying, “It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.” The sentiment is definitely Twainesque, but he never said it. Nevertheless, it’s still true and demonstrable time and again in our post-truth society.
As more “normies” have started waking up to the reality that the Covid-19 “vaccines” are ineffective and dangerous, a lot are finding news way of defending their decisions to get jabbed rather than admitting it was a mistake. Conservative comic Scott Adams, who is most famous for creating the Dilbert comics, is not one of those people. He’s now admitting that “anti-vaxxers won” in regards to their decision.
In fact, he admitted it over and over again. Watch:

How about: “No amount of evidence will persuade an idiot.”. 🤔😂👍
To date, he’s a rare one to say what he said. Maybe he’ll start a trend .... (not likely).
He said won instead of saying we were right, so screw that arrogant egotistical clown. The Ben Garrison cartoon was hilarious though lol.
Democrats autonomically despise that guy because he is talented and funny
He should have said, “John Stockton has been vindicated!”
+1
willful idiot
I’m not going to watch the video, so would you tell me, what the Hell was the prize? Stupid premise, IMHO.
Good for him. He blocked me on Twit over this when I challenged his logic.
Not vaxxed now, not gwine ta be.
Data from the Centers for Disease Creation and Propagation?
Seriously?
I agree that saying “You won” sounds a little snarkier than just saying “You were right”. But if you listen to him, Adams definitely implies the latter.
And, he is admiting that his thought process led him to a bad decision. So, while he may be arrogant, he is not a clown. Also, the guy who created a brilliant comic series like Dilbert has a right to be more arrogant than your average Joe.
Sounds like Fonzie saying, “I was wrrrrrr.”
One thing he mentioned in that video is the worry he has about what the vaccine has done to him that won’t show up for 5 years or sometime in the future, IMO that’s a legitimate worry and a worry for millions of other people.
He predicted that one of Trump, Biden, Sanders would die in 2020.
Semimojo pushes the vax mandates. How does it feel to be WRONG?
It’s harder to say “I was wrong” than “OK, you won.”
OK. What’s your better source and what to they say the rate is?
So right. Good for him. The vax is very bad for you and the boosters take it to another level. Poison. At least most here on FR we weren’t fooled. Not for a second.
In the past I have often been impressed by Scott Adams’ willingness to question his own beliefs and assumptions. It’s not a common trait.
