Holy hell "unvaccinated" is trending on twitter and my god what an epic shit show of stupidity is festering over there.
@elevynn Yea, though it amazes me less every day.
@freemo he's likely talking about your perpetual stupidity.
Yes we are all more than aware you are one of the ones who supports idiotic ideas, no need to keep reminding us.
The fact that you dont even understand how VARES works, why it isnt and cant be used the way you are using it, or even why this argument is loony bin territory at all is very telling.
I have discussed VARES many many times before and everyone who tries to argue this has been completely clueless... little quips arent going to make you look like you have a clue.
you could do this for fun and donate the money to some charity

Lol had to watch an ad about how Atlantis is real before watching this video.... hard hitting stuff you got there buddy, lolol
@otso Thanks, but I get my medical information from peer-reviewed studies performed by professionals in their field, not from internet video personalities.
Go back to watching your Dr. Phil reruns.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
@freemo VAERS I love how smart you qoto midwits think you are. Its endlessly amusing.
@Pantangelini Oh no a typo that inverted two letters, the most common typo ont he internet... yes **thats** the thing we should be focusing on, what a bunch of nitwits we are., you are right. How did I not see it sooner!
@freemo I didn't mean to point out that you arent perfect. Sorry to disturb your bubble. Since I'm just here to laugh at your pompous arrogance, I'll do it more quietly next time.
@freemo There's nobody left for them, but the crazies. :)
@hasmis @freemo There's an excellent (1976) essay by a guy named Carlo Cipolla on the general topic of stupidity. You may already have seen it. If not, it's worth checking out.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlo_M._Cipolla
See in particular, his 1st law: "Always and inevitably, everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation."
There's also a nice two-factor classification scheme in there (see the figure in the wikipedia article).
@aebrockwell @freemo Ha, I stay away from that topic. The great thing about being retired is that I don't have to wrangle something out of stupid people. :)
@aebrockwell @freemo At the old company, I was on a group to prevent the 'Great 2000 turnover Disaster'. I looked quickly at all our systems and said in the first meeting - "Nothing is going to happen!' I was kicked out by the stupid people, who had a great party with that, and nothing happened.
Reminds me of this #demotivator poster: IDIOCY
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

@pj @aebrockwell @freemo I think the poster would be better, if they weren’t wearing parachutes. :)
@pj @aebrockwell @hasmis @freemo
Or in the case of Elon Musk stupidity in a group of one.
Actually from a fedi viewpoint he is a ‘useful idiot’
@zleap @pj @aebrockwell @freemo OMG, this is a nested thread. Brain turning off for the day…
@Xna_NaJu @pj @aebrockwell @hasmis @freemo
It's funny that the exact same term is used with the opposite meaning by other people.
@freemo Any phrase used as a tribal identity marker tends to attract stupidity because the point is allegiance not analysis; any topic of considerable depth discussed in 280 or less character chunks tends towards stupid because there isn't enough space to advance sufficiently nuanced ideas; and in this case the starting point is counterfactual, which poses serious challenges for non-idiotic support.
So, yeah, if it was anything other than a maelstrom of stupidity, we ought to be mightily surprised.
(I do note with displeasure that a lot of people more on the sane side of things tend to overestimate the degree to which one can conclude things like "vaccines are totally safe" from observations like "the anti-vax side is comprised of idiots". That's not how it works! Is there a talkorigins.org equivalent for Covid vaccines yet?)
@freemo It amazes me how the collective mind can fester so low in the gutter.
