    Well, COVID proved that “science” is as bought off as politicians.

    We should be able to question everything, especially if push back is seen in the MSM and censorship is used to stop the counter to the mainstream.

        Didn’t you read the meme? He gets offended when you ask for evidence , his theories are so stupid he is the only who believes on them.

        Well, depends on what you believe.

        The people I started to watch and learn from are more careful in what they belive from now on.

        We know that their is a military induatrial complex, which means the more wars the better the profits.

        While the pharma complex also, to a degree, has certain ways of doing things, to keep it simple.

            Block everyone you don’t agree with, that is a great way to learn of the real world.

            That is what the working class struggle needs, more dividing between ourselves.

        For fauci/the cdc:

        • The whole mask are useless lie is probably the big one.
        • There’s also the immediate dismissal of lab leak theories.
        • Continuing to recommend cloth masks after studies showed they were either useless or became saturated and may exacerbate spread.

        For state actions:

        • Lockdowns were never part of the recommended approach, that wasn’t a scientific recommendation.
        • There were the arbitrary rules like wearing a mask in a restaurant unless you were sitting that had no science behind them.
        • There were rules like no motorized boats, but non motorized is acceptable.
        • Closing schools despite most experts citing the long term affects harming development, also little evidence that kids were at any significant risk from covid.
        • Classifying tents with walls and igloos as outdoors to avoid mask restrictions.
        • Keeping mask rules while outdoors for well after it was established there’s basically 0 chance of outdoor spread for covid.

        More generally:

        • The obsession with surface cleaning despite evidence for surface transmission being nearly impossible being established very early.
        • Criticizing anti mask protests for not being safe, but completely ignoring the same issue with blm protests.
        • the overwhelming save all lives at all costs advocacy, which isn’t even policy in normal times.
