It's not up to me to prove you're wrong. If you make claims and present them as facts then it's up to you to provide evidence to support those claims. Thinking it's up to me to refute them just shows me you've fallen pretty deeply into the conspiracy pond.

lol yea, but I know which side of the fence has been busying the "do your own research" mantra a lot.

Here in the Netherlands we have a term for people like that. We call them "wappie" (singular) or "wappies" (plural). The term has existed for longer but took flight at the start of the corona pandemic and is generally used for people that lost their way and fell into the conspiracytheory-think trap.

I heard some guys said that people became aggressive after the mask restriction. I think they were highly frustrated and fed up with this abuse of power...

Hey Oprah, I'm not laughing at the kid, but if you really believe what you're saying, start adopting them.

The thing that bothers me most about him though is how he's not in a home care situation and seems to be an otherwise functional member of society. Like, this dude is allowed to ride a motorbike and a car and I believe owns a house. Like how can you be that severely impaired and yet be functional enough to get what looks to be a reasonable income. I just don't get it.

Excess Deaths Among Republicans Skyrocketed After Covid Vaccine Became Available, Study Finds
The study found the “excess mortality was significantly higher for Republican voters than Democratic voters after COVID-19 vaccines were available to all adults, but not before,” noting that the death rate for Republican voters was 43% higher than for Democratic voters after the vaccine was widely available. However, the study notes that the data did not include whether the individual was vaccinated or if their deaths were directly linked to covid-19, but researchers looked at the divide in political party-affiliated deaths between January 2018 and December 2021 and compared the pre-pandemic death rate to deaths recorded post-Covid vaccine.
Oops.

This is why global warming will kill us all. One side refusing to listen to reason and making the problem worse just to piss off the other side. Like just shoot yourself and get it over with instead of taking everyone with you.

It wasn't Covid but lung disease, probably cancer that got him in the end.
I was in regular contact (Pen Pal) with Keith (lars63) to close the end :tear:
