Are you saying my comment was terrorist sympathy? I'm not admiring or excusing anyone. I'm saying you probably find a whole range of IQs among them. Because why wouldn't you? Whose…

> This will sound like a hot take, but consider that terrorists are for the most part, stupid idiots. What even is a terrorist? If your definition of terrorist is "person on the ne…

> reminder to the myocarditis-maxxies, the actual virus causes that too and the 2020-2021 variants caused it worse Do you know if the vaccine prevented the virus-induced myocarditi…

This is the gospel that is taught. It seems to help people tolerate the fruits of their labor being quietly separated from them over time. Just another tax, except the people have …

> So you're saying I'm in poverty because I couldn't buy my house and my car outright? I think this isn't as unreasonable as it seems to everyone living it. It's like water to the …

The relevant question for me would be how many people would be combat ineffective for how long with and without the flu vaccine. Your Claude conversation says things like this: "Th…

Are you sure? Your link ends with this: > Combined with the brutal arithmetic at higher R0R_0 R0 , this is a large part of why flu vaccination programs are generally justified on i…

> They're not. They're not particularly effective for preventing flu in an individual. But at the group level, they have a clear and useful effect. This is my understanding. It bas…

True or false: they traded a supreme leader who made a religious edict against nuclear weapons for one who did not.

> I can control government more than I can control Google or Anthropic How true is this really? With the government, you can vote in various elections, or contact your representati…

Are you saying this because you only recognize the name from breathless covid propaganda? Or because you know ivermectin is pretty important in livestock management.

This seems like a poor tool to keep in your logical toolbox. If some line of logic would lead to some sacred cow getting slaughtered, then that logic must be false?

I do wonder if either the interviewer or interviewee are aware how insane this must sound to people with regular jobs. They did mention something about feeling privileged, but it f…

So you know who blew up nordstream? The financial support point seems like it could have some legs. The other ones aren't terribly convincing. "They went on the bad guys show" or "…

Do you have any specifics about Mearsheimer or Sachs? Or just vague insinuations.

> You're missing some very important context If we're talking context, isn't there more to include? Like why those protests were happening in the first place? Did the hostile gover…

> I don't believe you The Trump admin has pretty low approval ratings. If some very hostile country bombed the US, is your default assumption that the folks who despise Trump would…

I'm all ears if you've got someone that we can put in power that won't rat fuck us when it comes to privacy or civil liberties. Bonus points if they aren't just slightly less bad t…

Did you miss this one? > Something reasonable to say would be there are vaccines that have a net benefit, and you should take those if that applies to your situation.

Generally safe is meaningless in this context. That's not a reasonable way to talk about entire classes of drugs. All that matters is for a given person with a given medical histor…

No, all I have to do to make it clear is say "I'm not opposed to vaccines as some kind of principle, ideological or otherwise", and then you can either believe me or not. That's wh…

You can at least draw a somewhat tortured connection between "anti vaccine" and opting out of receiving a specific vaccine (for logical reasons, with your doctors approval, though …

"Antivaxxer*" here. I'm not injecting peptides for a similar reason - I'm not convinced the cost/benefit works out. That said, the issue for many is autonomy - if you want to put n…
