the thing that's dumb about third dose is that pfizer is like, 91% efficacy at 6 months. a booster now isn't going to help.

wtf is even the debate though? even if third doses marginally helped it'd be the loving height of folly to keep injecting people in the us (especially fat useless forums posters) while most of the world is very much in line to get a single shot. both in that it'd be monstrously immoral and in that very good protection for a handful of people is clearly worse for *everyone* than decent protection for lots of people.

yeah they’re very much armchair leftists. they only accept armed revolution if they don’t have to be on the same continent. almost nobody there has any other ideological consciousness of their own either, its all straight out of books unless the poster has actually been in poverty before

it's attempting to use a penis bone in an argument, also known as the Red Rocket Defense, although it has also been applied to non-baculal mammals; most notably by 19th century Swiss jurist Johan Cockringe: "If It Is erect, the charge can't be correct"

CSPAM has a lot of problems but their heart is in the right place.

The Trump thread is mostly posting about cats since Trump is gone.

The Covid thread is full of crazy people but the general zeitgeist is "we don't have enough people vaccinated yet so I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing and see what happens in the future," which is entirely reasonable.

Liberals accusing people who make them feel bad of being mentally ill has a long and storied history, though.

yeah, once we realized just how insidious the algorithm is we pretty much banned youtube. even the kids’ version will chuck all sorts of dumb poo poo their way.
