Oddbean new post about login | logout Your parrot mainstream nonsense, gaslighting people with things you heard in the media like "safe and effective" and "no evidence". I just don't know what it takes for some people to wake up. I hope you do before its too late. STAY AWAY FROM VACCINES.
VACCINES PROTECT YOUR HEALTH! don't be misguided by conspiracy theorists: consult a your physician
🤦♂️
That's what I thought a few years ago. I used to be you. I learned the hard way. If you're smart, you will abandon this dangerous nonsense and benefit from people who have learned the hard way. We're not conspiracy theorists. We're survivors - meaning, we survived something that hopefully you won't have to go through.
Based on previous interactions, their mind is made up and won't change.
I get that impression too. But there's a chance... His mind will change, its only a matter of how much suffering has to happen first.
our mind will go where the science takes us – science is the exponent of objectivity
This is mindless blather. We really have been talking to a bot. Joke's on us...
you apparently do not (want to?) understand the concept of the scientific method
correlation is not necessarily causation (look it up) – again: consult a good physician, get a second or even third opinion from educated abd experienced medical experts, but don't try to 'investigate yourself', because specialized knowledge and experience are required to correctly interpret the information.
I have specialized knowledge. Calculus 2, statistics, then econometrics, and then i taught. I can read the data. And having this specialization, I can tell you : you don't need it. Anyone can figure it out of they just try. But since you think credentials matter, I have plenty. You've made some silly assumptions.
None of those qualify you as a medical doctor or -expert. Don't be so arrogant to assume you don't need the relevant education and experience. I have nowhere assumed that you weren't (well) educated.
There is no 'mainstream' nonsense! The fact that most people realize that qualified medical experts can be trusted when it comes to medical matters is indead widespread common sense (if you want to call that 'mainstream', sure)
