I hope somebody learned something from the post, even if SIX didn't.
You Boomers were still being taught that the sun revolved around the Earth when you were in grade school.
Pluto was a planet when I was in grade school.
Brontosaurus was Brontosaurus until it wasn't Brontosaurus anymore and then it was Apatosaurus until it wasn't Apatosaurus anymore and it was Brontosaurus again.

And he who is not sufficiently courageous to defend his soul — don’t let him be proud of his ‘progressive’ views, and don’t let him boast that he is an academician or a people’s artist, a distinguished figure or a general. Let him say to himself: I am a part of the herd and a coward. It’s all the same to me as long as I’m fed and kept warm.

Quote:Not to nitpick, but Johnson & Johnson was sued because some, not all, mines supplied talc contaminated with asbestos. J&J was concerned but didn't do a damn thing because the asbestos/talc was cheaper than pure talc. The asbestos is what got J&J into legal trouble. Now if you have a reason to believe vaccines are contaminated with asbestos or something, then you have good reason to refuse vaccines. But if the contamination is all in your head, that is to say imaginary, then you have no good reasons. And who is so stupid as to throw Jarts and think it can't poke a hole in you? Next you will be saying nobody realized until product liability cases were lost in court that a spinning lawnmower blade can kill you. Hey, lawnmowers only cut lawns, says idiots, and Jarts only poke holes in lawns.

It's not imaginary.
I'm hoping you're right.
Like I said before, this is one bag of I Told You So's I'm not looking forward to handing out.
But count me out. There's no possible scenario where I get that shot.

2 maps that explain how partisanship has poisoned our fight against Covid-19
The remarkable overlap between the two maps: states that voted for Joe Biden have higher vaccination rates while those that went for Donald Trump have far lower ones. And it's not just that! In most cases, the stronger a state went for Biden, the higher the overall vaccination rate in that state is. That relationship is inversely proportional for Trump: The higher the former President's winning percentage is in a state, the lower, generally speaking, the percentage of the population that has been vaccinated.

I do know a strong Trump supporter who got vaccinated, but his wife is my sister. Between her and my other sister, the nurse, Ron ultimately had no chance to avoid the vaccination, although he tried. Ron is just one datapoint out of many convincing me that all Trumptards are crazy and stupid, but occasionally, uncharacteristically, they act sane and smart, although not because they are sane and smart.

That's not something I'd brag about.
It means that stupid, scared little sheep voted for your guy, in general.

Quote:Ron, my Trump voting in-law, is still worried the vax will kill him and it has been 6 months since the shots that he didn't want were forced on him by his wife and sister-in-law. Ron is also worried Biden is a Commie. It has been 6 months since the Inauguration but any day now Biden will reveal his evil plan to destroy the American brand of Capitalism, the greatest idea of all times. Ha-ha! Ron is an idiot.

A few more things about Ron: he got laid off 21 years ago from SmithKline Beecham, when it merged with Glaxo Wellcome. He hasn't worked since. My sister supports him. He bought a Harley and hangs out with other unemployed Trumptards. He owns every Rush Limbaugh book, an author for those who feel they aren't getting a fair deal only because they are white. Ha-ha! It's not because they are white, it is because they are stupid.

Yanno, I was noodling on the conspiracy-theories about Covid-19, and I realized that two of the conspiracy theories conflict with each other.
The first conspiracy theory is that the dastardly Commie Chinese unleashed this on the world.
The second is that the virus doesn't exist at all, or - if it does- it's so ineffective that we should just ignore it because "nobody ever died of Covid".
They really don't fit together, do they?
*****
SECONDRATE: I think what you're seeing is that the M$M and establishment (incl. scientific/healthcare) have lost so much credibility that now not only do many not trust what "they say", they actively believe the opposite of what "they say".
But that's what you get from distorting and propagandizing and lying to people 24/7/365. Eventually, nobody trusts you about anything, even when you're telling the truth or a partial truth.
Blowback's a bitch, yanno?
