Literally who? The young MAGA folks in congress like Josh Hawley certainly don’t. I guess Rand Paul is a free market guy, but he’s pretty much the only one. Even Susan Colins is signing onto tariffs and other nonsense.

Anyone that complains about socialism or communism as a criticism of democrats is pretending to be a free market capitalist.

I disagree. They're simply engaging in culture war posturing where socialism is simply a byword for "bad people". They call democrats socialists and argue for nationalizing OpenAI and some steel mills. They aren't for the free market, they're just dumb. Marjorie Taylor Greene typifies this kind of behavior.

Yes, this is bad faith plainly and any reasonable person will agree. You’re choosing to simply ignore a lot of stuff so your conclusions make sense. You’re ignoring the placebo group entirely. Why does that matter? injecting even a placebo has high rate of adverse effects . The injection mechanism itself is not free - it hurts. You’re ignoring the conclusions under some hand way “uhhh media!” pretense. If you disagre…

The seemingly higher incidence for placebo when compared with MMR can be explained. 1. First, the placebo data comes from an article that doesn't meet several academic standards for peer reviewed research. The researchers were the reviewers and they all work at Pfizer. So, peer review was not done at all. AND the results were not published for us to see. So we have to take their word for it that they performed any re…

No response. You don't want to take back the bad faith accusation at least?

I could definitely and more rightfully accuse you now. Right? Good faith and all that?

Honest take, you're angry that you didn't know that the FDA relied on research that wasn't peer reviewed, that they are still hiding the results from that study (ongoing lawsuits), and that your news channel lied to you. But you're directing that anger at me because that's hard to swallow and, well, that same news channel told you that I'm a bad person if I know more about science than their editors who went to a trade school for marketing and graphic design.

It's insane what's happening.

You're convinced so much that your first reaction (read above) was to claim that the research didn't say anything close to what I'm saying.

But it's the exact opposite, isn't it? It doesn't say anything close to what you thought it says.

I think many of us are in a place where editors at a media and marketing company command many people's religious belief so much that we can't even read research without stopping in the middle to go "Aha! I knew it. You're a bad guy for being a scientist!"

And that's really what I am trying to say. Science is not that.

Think about it.

Zero chance of that happening. Europe has already largely deindustrialized and it never closed itself to China. Europe also tried to stop buying Russian oil and failed due to transshipment through India. It's really sad seeing how little so many of us Europeans understand the situation. America and China hold all the cards, Europe holds none. It makes very little that is both unique and strategic. Decades of left win…

> Europe has already largely deindustrialized Yawn. If you look at actual production in industry data we're at the peak or close to. A lot of this yapping is (outside of just boring political droning) due to conflating relative stagnation with "deindustrialization" lol and looking purely at individual countries like Germany, not realizing the most of the recent growth is east and south of it.

> Yawn. If you look at actual production in industry data we're at the peak or close to.

Indeed. This is the same argument people make about oil: it's at (or near) it's highest level ever! So things must be good! And that's not exactly true.

Even though, for oil, there's barely any people who see how bad things are (I guess the top of the US government sort of demands you don't if you work for the US government). But what matters is the change.

If things even just stay the same, efficiency improvements will lead to massive job losses, and in practice "stay the same" still means some companies suffer and others gain. The suffering companies are the employment giants, the gaining companies are the "lights out" factories, to an approximation. Things must go up, it's "the derivative" that matters, so to speak.

That's why it's such a massive deal that the derivative for Europe's industry (even with the massive military investment) ... very close to zero. In other words: the job losses will continue even under Germany's massive investment plan.

You could say they're not beating inflation, but that isn't exactly accurate. Or it isn't the problem.
