Covid19 PSA

The "researchers" just retracted their research

But, but, but it was peer reviewed and evertythang.

 

Doesn't matter. Folks like kalifornia Karen will stick to the old story.

 

I'm stunned...stunned I tell you. Yawn.

 

Stop rejecting what the science is telling you.

 

That's how the world works these days......that age old saying went "“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."

 

Including the person telling it.

 

Well, it was post-peer reviewed.

The system still works.

Still beats the hell out of what your favourite talk radio is doing....

 

What would that be, exactly?

 

This statement aged well.

 

It only works if you ignore the fact the disinformation was used to deter people from recovering from a virus during a pandemic.

 

Blaming "science" for misstatements of individual (or even a group of) scientists, no matter how well publicized they are, is a sure sign that one doesn't understand how science works. And it's deliciously ironic when such blame is cast by way of a keyboard or touch-screen attached to a computing device which is connected (often wirelessly) to a global Internet.

 

All you need to know that chloroquine works (or that the virus was engineered) is for the president (or Sec State) to say so.
Then, almost instantly there will be numerous youtube posts to back it up. Kinda brilliant, in a Orwellian fashion.

 

I think most know how science is supposed to work. What is evident is that some are working to target the results to suit a desired outcome because way too many will accept the phrase scientific study as an absolute truth.

 

Like how lots of Pasteur units of heat are required to kill a coronavirus?

Then they really don't understand science, because that's a non sequitur.

 

Yet here you are, after swallowing hook, line and sinker the words of “science” despite the glaring contradiction with reality...and your mea culpa is to continue to mock those of us who saw through the thinly veiled obfuscation.

When do you get your Nobel, Dr. Sapsis?

 

"Science" in the current day and age is now tainted like so many things by the 2 biggest corruptors......money and politics.

I don't know how far back in time this influence has gone but when scientific research outcomes can be swayed so much by who is footing the bill then it truly is junk science. It's one thing if you come up with honest outcomes that are later proven to be inaccurate, and the data findings are updated etc.....that's how science works. It's another when you intentionally put out false findings due to monetary or political influence/pressure.

 

I can't help you with your OCD, Dave. I apologize for not being as mind numbingly precise as you are. Most understood exactly what I meant.

I believe the issue is they do understand how it is supposed to work, they simply don't see that it has been co-opted to fit someone's agenda.

 

Nothing like simply ignoring the actual results that have directly been seen first hand because:

The science has been settled.
Everything has already been concluded because of science.
