What? The fact people are willing to protect themselves from a harmful disease is evidence we can be brainwashed? Brains got washed, but they are not the ones you think that got “cleaned”. You think it is strange that people followed guidelines put out by professionals in their fields as some form of brainwashing? That’s funny, and sad. It’s why we put those people in those positions, unlike now, where you have people going against experts and governing by “feelings”. This is such a fucking terrible timeline…
I wrote that it was a real crisis and I didn’t use the term “brainwash”. The fact that people complied to official guidelines is of course a good thing in the event of a pandemic. But there was also overshooting. Not everything made sense. And there was definitely a lack of critical thinking and an absence of open debate. But my point is that it was apparently possible to create a high degree of conformity from above, a useful insight when you’re trying to eradicate democracy and supplant it by fascism. How else would you explain the ease of what has been described as a coup for the past 5 months?
A life threatening, highly contagious epidemic, is NOT the time for “open debate”! Sheesh, this wins today’s “Stupidest comment on the Internet” award.
My gf at the time spent a month in bed as a result of COVID. She was hallucinating about dead family members for a week in the middle. Fuck off with your “fat or had pre-existing conditions, most of which are fully controlled by diet or exercise.” She’s certainly not overweight and had no pre-existing conditons, nor was she elderly. Go fuck yourself until you have worn your fuck stick down to a nub and have no more fucks to give, you ignorant piece of shit of a person.
Early on, when the disease was just starting to spread, an absolutely critical time during a pandemic, nobody knew whether any of the crap you just spouted, was applicable. Just the people who gained their medical qualifications from Fox News, and thought they knew more than the actual experts, were excreting your kind of argument. NOBODY had been “exposed and recovered” at that time, fool.
Conspiracy theorists have NO place in public health discourse. You, and your ignorant ilk, are the reason so many people died unnecessarily.
Oh my god, do we get to bully a covid denier in the year of our lord, 2025? That shit is old news, man. You’re like 4 years out of date.
Getting the vaccine if you are able is your civic duty. Not to your country, but to your fellow people. Your grandmother. The fact that you’re scared of a needle I think just kinda makes you a coward. Where is your bravery? You’re not getting any more apple tarts if you let your grandma die.

Of course it is, unless you advocate authoritarianism
I didn’t realize it’s ok here to insult people

You just proved why “an open debate” and “critical thinking” among people who have no clue at all are pretty bad ideas during a pandemic.
