True. It's definitely not enough to send people off their loops. But hopefully it's a step in the right direction. My prediction is that in the next 2 to 3 year

True. It's definitely not enough to send people off their loops. But hopefully it's a step in the right direction. My prediction is that in the next 2 to 3 years more detail will emerge on the massive scam that is lockdowns. I don't expect people to go back and evaluate their behavior towards others who did not believe the media scam (from people being aggressive towards people deciding not to wear mask for example), but I hope that it'll be a step in the reversion of group-think. Edit: People continuously downvote my negative comments about lockdowns. I leave you with this before you downvote: https://twitter.com/janesays22/status/1415354369126457346 https://twitter.com/janesays22/status/1415354369126457346 > I turned 18 in Feb 2020.

Youtube classified this as "misinformation". They have the power to crush any voice and they are. I hope a crisis takes some power away from them.

  In a sense, if people don't stop bullshit, no one will stop it for them. The state can't and shouldn't (ideally) stop YouTube from removing what they don't want to host, but people should hold YouTube accountable. If people don't stop using YouTube to make a point to them that their arbitrary decisions are not ok with them, nothing will really stop them. With that being said, I'm always hopeful that people will eventually see that forcefully removing something from the conversation (aka banning it, like banning doctors talking their successful experiences with hydroxychloroquine very early because some kids at youtube believe that a political org like WHO is more credible than actual experienced doctors) won't eliminate it, it'll just make it grow in the shadows, allowing other scammers to make use of the situation. And the cycle continues.

  Misinformation is a really dangerous concept. Sure, bad information certainly exists, but a lot of things throughout history have been labeled "misinformation" before it became confirmed information.

    > a lot of things throughout history have been labeled "misinformation" before it became confirmed information. Heck, we don't even need to go back too far in history - a lot of COVID-19 information was labeled "misinformation" before being proven correct/possibly true.

      Lab theory people were called conspiracy theorists this exact same time last year. Now they're on mainstream fucking tv. And don't you dare mention china or you'd be labelled a trump fan. Now that's cool cuz uncle joe okayed it. If anything, this shows the zombies that the people are. Anything TV says is truth. A stupid short report from an online magazine made some late show host make a short skit about it and boom, like wild fire. I call total bs on that whole thing. This entire COVID response has been political from DAY 1. Western countries response has not only been shameful, but absolutely reprehensibly.
