Even at 6x, it still very much comes up for debate. Most reasonable people can agree that a .01% IFR is not worth shutting everything down for, and that a 50% IFR is definitely worth shutting everything down for. Where you fall on this spectrum determines whether someone will call you a wishful thinker or not. Everyone believes their own opinion is the best.
- bluntfang 6y ago>Most reasonable people can agree Is this just a way of saying that people who don't agree with you aren't reasonable? What do we do with those people's opinions if they are the majority?
- rootusrootus 6y agoNo, it is setting a wide range and excluding the extremes -- that is, people who aren't even within spitting distance of a good faith debate. 0.01% IFR would be 1/10th of the seasonal flu. And 50% would be up there with bubonic plague. I feel pretty comfortable with my definition of 'reasonable people.'
- bluntfang 6y agoso what happens when all the people you think are unreasonable think you're the one being unreasonable? How do you deal with that?
