    again, I got the vaccine and I'm not anti-vax, but why are people getting downvoted for making valid points just because they aren't following the popular narrative. Did this websi…

    I know most reasonable people disagree with this persons views, but why are they getting downvoted? They made a reasonable point and provided a source from the CDC. I'd much rather…

    yeah, I'm very far from being right-wing or anti-vaccine or anything like that, but I've been unsettled by this whole thing. I don't think there are microchips in the vaccine, and …

    You lept straight from "Sometimes these mental tools produce correct results" (which is true) to "These tools are the only way to produce correct results" (a ridiculous distortion)…

    Good point, maybe he could stop actively hurting people before thinking about helping them. I always overlook that somehow

    This is just my own speculation, equally as invalid as the authors, but at most I'd say Bezos thinks his goals are entirely genuine, but it's entirely based on narcissism and wanti…

    yeah true. I think it'd be best for others if they stopped being liberals. (\s btw)

    ~18-25 IIRC is the normal age for prodromal schizophrenia to occur(the early phase where symptoms begin to manifest) so that makes sense. If you don't get it by that age it's extre…
