One can call them as one sees them in a manner that is respectful to others. Some choose not to. I won’t speculate as to their motives.
Telling blatant lies and dangerous misinformation is more disrespectful than calling someone an asshole or telling them to STFU.
If you think it is okay to legally mandate that people take an experimental drug that is showing increasing evidence of bad side effects and mandate that they submit to electronic monitoring and tracking in order to make a living, then you and I are not going to agree.

Check the data on VAERS. I wish I didn’t have to spend the next six months worrying about whether my wife is going to miscarry because she got vaxxed and boosted when I did. I wish I wasn’t worried about birth defects caused by the vax. But I am, and I blame people like Fauci for it.

Ah, calling all Democrats "socialists" while doing the bidding of the Kremlin. Add it to the long list of hypocritical shit the hardcore Right does.

VAERS is no different than wikipedia. Literally anyone can post anything there. It is not evidence of anything. It's like claiming that shit you read on twitter or facebook is "evidence" of something happening. We have had this same fucking conversation for two years and you still ignore the basic facts of it. We provide actual evidence that this is the case and you ignore it because it does not support your worldview.

https://vaers.hhs.gov/reportevent.html

"Anyone can submit a report to VAERS, including parents and patients."

Also from their own site:
https://vaers.hhs.gov/faq.html

Limitations of VAERS:

- It is generally not possible to find out from VAERS data if a vaccine caused the adverse event
- Reports submitted to VAERS often lack details and sometimes contains errors
- Serious adverse events are more likely to be reported than non-serious events
- Numbers of reports may increase in response to media attention and increased public awareness
- VAERS data cannot be used to determine rates of adverse events

Over and over and over.

Stop claiming to be a rational person who wants to engage in legitimate discourse over such things. You are regularly proving that this isn't the case. You aren't seeking "the truth".

except that’s basically what you tried to do

You're a tough, intimidating, dominant alpha male.
It is blatantly obvious that that is how he sees - or wants to see - himself. Same with Overlander. Posturing and puffing up to create the impression of dominance.
that’s not what i see at all, but you do you

i see in PhD someone who, very much like myself, is incredibly frustrated by the sight of so much suffering (economic and public health-wise) that could have either prevented or drastically mitigated if it weren’t for the actions of ignorant and selfish neanderthals of human beings
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

It's not an experimental drug.

Vaers is something anyone can put anything they want to in.

Vaccines have been shown repeatedly to not have a negative impact on pregnant women or their unborn babies. SARS-CoV-2 on the other hand puts pregnant women and child at a significant risk.

These are facts. Please stop spreading false information. There is no basis for any of it.

It would seem to me that getting reports from everyday people who are experiencing things would be more reliable than what is filtered through globalist-funded government shills, but if you want to continue to be a brainwashed sheep, go right ahead.
Everyday people are frequently wrong. They are frequently wrong in direct eyewitness testimony. They are frequently wrong in reporting their symptoms to doctors. They are frequently wrong in relaying conversations they have heard or in describing items they have read. Everyday people are not a reliable source of information at all. Being a brainwashed sheep is just blindly accepting this source of data as accurate because you think it supports your argument despite the fact that it states on it's own website that it does NOT represent exactly what you say it represents.

I have not proposed a different source of data so your "what is filtered through globalist-funded government shills" is just your generic retelling of GOP boogeyman stories.

If the VAERS website required any sort of validation and investigation then I would take it more seriously. But since it is nothing more than a repository for unverified claims, it has as much value as a source as a suggestion box on the door of Bill Self's office full of everyday people's thoughts on who should get more minutes and what type of adjustments Self should make to the team.

It's not "thinking" at all. These grifters have made "thinking" something that only uppity leftist socialist snobs do as a means to identify ways they are better than these marginalized white, christian, blue collar, patriotic, everyday people.

This is just straight brainwashing. For god's sake, he completely ignores the disclaimer on the damn website that says it is not what he says it is as if it doesn't even exist and accuses me of only choosing my stance because I don't respect the feelings of these alleged everyday people. It's so sad how easy it was to remove the brain of so many people and replace it with a pass-through switchboard for disinformation.

What's frustrating to me is that this is the new normal. This isn't some temporary thing we have to just outlast. It is the new floor because they have shown no signs of learning their lesson. Instead they just continue to prove to the grifters and con men that they are still ripe for the taking and are ready to play the willing rubes in their next power grab.

When you can't trust the people in charge - when you can't trust the "experts" to do what is right, you can no longer trust what those people purport to be the truth. The cluster hump that is the last 2 plus years has brought us to the point that those who are not of the globalist persuasion can no longer take what the government or government scientists say at face value.
