I’m genuinely surprised..
Does this comment really read as flamebait? The article is about vaccines. A vaccine has to be administered to everyone to work. But I’m very skeptical that it’s actually going to happen given the way our medical system works here. So, I predict that there’s a good chance we won’t get herd immunity. I just don’t see how that’s flamebait. It’s more, known facts and extrapolation.
- pvg 6y agoknown facts You can look up the moderator commentary on 'facts' and flamebait (tldr is, you can flamebait with facts) but these aren't even facts - free vaccine has been the stated official plan in the US for months.
- dang 6y agoSure it does. This may be a case of "comments in the rear view mirror are much larger than they appear", i.e. people underestimate how provocative their posts are. US healthcare differences are a classic flamewar topic and nationalistic flamewar is particularly ugly and pointless. Your comment wasn't thoughtful/substantive, it was snarky/hyperbolic. Ergo flamebait.
