 That's not objective. That's on considering one side of the coin. You are only looking at the phy... 
 There is no 'metaphysical', simple, no? 
 Simlplistic and narrow minded. 
 No, just being objective about the whole 'sky daddy' thing. 
 Imagine living in a time where you don't think you're God and the freedom to live well and resear... 
 There is no God and the ''supernatural' doesn't exist! It's simple, no? 
 I hear all children of RFK Jr. have been vaccinated, so he can't be all-in antivaxx. 
 Also he did very good work for the environment. I like him, but fear he might suffer from dementia, given his more recent fake news, disinformation, conspiracy theories outings.

 Image growing up in those primitive times long gone, and having the millstone of religion continuously dragging you down like this. A man cannot easily escape his upbringings 🧐 
 You mean the science that religion (the Catholic Church) gave to you? *smh* 
 Indeed did #science have to deal with primitive primitive silly, childish, ridiculous beliefs of the folks living at those times. It struggled and overcame, resulting in current day science, which is the exponent of objectivity in a never ending search for knowledge. 
 There is no #God , there are no #gods , the #supernatural does not exist. Those are all silly religious fantasies, conjured up by primitive peoples, who did not yet have #science to explain rhe world around them. Drop the #skydaddy crap. 
 Right. Do not ever assume that education and experience are not required! They are not just 'propaganda'. A person may be highly intelligent, but without proper education and experience, they are wasting their life, which is a great shame. 
 i see, and you are one of these experts right? 
 If you are not one of those experts, then it would be wise not to doubt the medical consensus among them.

 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 
 I have specialized knowledge. Calculus 2, statistics, then econometrics, and then i taught. I can... 
 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. 
 To be fair, why does it contain milk?  It is made from cream. Milk is also made from cream.  Butt... 
 you want to take all the milk out of the butter? is that even possible?

 our mind will go where the science takes us – science is the exponent of objectivity 
 While you're at it, look up 'urban dictionary "spook" ' - it should say something like "spy."

 always believe what your favourite influencer tells you

they know you better than you do

they a... 
 always think you know better or as well as experts who have spent years in specialized education and building experience – thinking you can 'research it yourself' #silly #arrogant #misguided 
 I hear all children of RFK Jr. have been vaccinated, so he can't be all-in antivaxx. 
 That's what I thought a few years ago. I used to be you. I learned the hard way. If you're smart,... 
 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. 
 "we" "you people"

those are both specious

 we disagree 
 Ironic. Doubly ironic, considering what you just said about assumptions.

Self reflection is a go... 
 no it isn't 
 Pattern recognition is more reliable than a strict rule of making no assumptions. You're right, i... 
 no, it's education and experience, of (medical) experts in the case of matters related to vaccines 
 Your parrot mainstream nonsense, gaslighting people with things you heard in the media like "safe... 
 VACCINES PROTECT YOUR HEALTH! don't be misguided by conspiracy theorists: consult a your physician 
 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) 
 Good to know. I should've noticed the name... says it all 
 conclusions based on bad assumptions are invalid – assumption is the mother of all fuckups 
 I've caught that account using purely AI generated responses before on these topics. Pure NPC or ... 
 wrong: I tend to use AI, but solely for spelling and grammar corrections (I am not a native speaker) 
 What'll really be funny is when the bots are noticeably more intelligent than the NPCs 
 we have a very high I.Q. so that's doubtful; you people really aren't used to out-of-your-bubble comments, are you? 
 words like "experts" and "professionals" kinda gives away the fact that if they aren't an actual ... 
 you don't think that experts in field know much more than non-experts; mutatis mutandis professionals – conspiracy theories tend to be pseudoscientific, misinformed, misguided, laughable most of the times 
 Ah. You're a bot. Silly me for being fooled. 
 how did you arrive at that conclusion? 
 BTW: 'no flu' in 2020? That's likely the result of preventive measurements that prevented infections. 
 *preventive measures 
 There's a well-known, albeit small, chance that you might experience anaphylactic shock, which is indeed a serious concern (hence the 15-minute wait after the jab). You can also suffer anaphylaxis if you're allergic to peanuts and inadvertently consume them. I'm not aware if this condition is hereditary. Apparently, your mother doesn't have this issue. Before receiving a jab, there are questionnaires to complete; perhaps your father could mention it there or consult a physician beforehand.

All the talk about boosters being fatal is the realm of silly conspiracy theories. Like all medications, vaccines have side effects, but the consequences of getting infected are – except, of course, in cases of allergies – potentially far more severe. People do die, and some develop chronic health problems (long Covid) after infection. I recommend trusting modern medical science and consulting a well-educated physician or virologist. Unlike the unqualified practitioners of the past – 'witch doctors' – these professionals genuinely know what they're talking about.

 what's wrong with COVID boosters? everyone I know is getting them because people they know have died of COVID or have gotten longCOVID and they want to avoid that; me too (I know of no one who had negative experiences with vaccines)

 Thank you! I wish you all the best as well, but must admit that I'm worried. 
 The document – is it even real? – dors not say any of that. All that talk is just silly hearsay. 
 No, no, I'm serious! Referring to e.g. thr millions that were paid to Dominion because of the slander about their voting machines.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominion_Voting_Systems_v._Fox_News_Network 
 You can't unlike it, can you? 
 Well... That's actually no argument to prove that the document is real. Besides from that, the document - real or not - doesn't say anything like that! You must really work on your reading comprehension!

Tick, tock...? That's just a #ConspiracyTheory ! The world will go on as usual. 
 Apply your thoughts to #Trump administration and behold! The end is nigh and deep in your heart you know this to be true. These hyper rich don't care about you. You and yours will perish because of this. 
 the one on the right is the witch doctor! (is that #JFK?) 
 Well... Actually this is an explicit example of real research, by qualified people who know what they are talking about (i.e. NOT witch doctors from the dark ages long past) 
 You simply don't know what you're talking about! But Qualified medical experts do. Listen to them and save what remains of your health. It may be not too late. Save yourself! 
 Well, actually no. You'll find out soon and then cry for weeks about it. 
 You have been misled with silly, misinformed or even disinformational conspiracy theories, fake news and will no doubt suffer the consequences of your poor choices. Things are gonna get worse sooner than later. I do feel for you but if you don't want to adopt a rational attitude then you're beyond help, hopelessly lost. 
 Remember my words when times of hardship find you. Avoid the Darwin award. 
 Republicans are sooo stupid, one may conclude after reading your silly attempt at clarification, quoting only pseudoscience, conspiracy theories and disinformation. I wonder: what is your I.Q.? 
 6? 🤯 
 Well... Actually scientific facts are not propaganda, they're just facts, from qualified people who know what they are talking about. Well informed, educated people, who are much, much smarter than you. You'll have to accept this, come to terms with it and perhaps, some day, realize that you were misled by cheap disinformation, by people who only serve their own interests. 
 Indeed, RFK is three witch doctor. 👍 JFK is dead. 
 That is what all you silly, misled followers of conspiracy theories do when you are facing the reality of defeat when facing smarter, more qualified people: sign off, run away, 'mute' as they like to call it. It's despicable! 
 BY THE EYE OF SAURON! IT HAS BEGUN! #BirdfluPandemic 😱
