I think it's cult like thinking to believe these drug companies had good reputations to begin with.
"""Pfizer has been a “habitual offender,” persistently engaging in illegal and corrupt marketing practices, bribing physicians and suppressing adverse trial results. Since 2002 the company and its subsidiaries have been assessed $3 billion in criminal convictions, civil penalties and jury awards."""
I use Comcast and Pfizer because theyre monoplies, not becaus of their reputation.
The FDA is fighting to release the data it used to authorize the vaccine and there's numerous former FDA leadership on Pfizer's board?
I think the Branch Covidians might literally believe anything an authority figure tells them. It's scary to see.

- civilized 5y ago"Companies do bad things" is not the same claims as "companies are willing to do arbitrarily bad things without any limit or regard for consequences". In most cases, our distrust of institutions is nonzero but finite. See https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/bounded-distrust https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/bounded-distrust
- edmcnulty101 5y agoThat's abuse and cult victims language. My abuser is bad but not THAT bad. I still love him. The fact remains that they have a repeated pattern over many years of doing bad things and to claim they wouldn't follow this pattern with the vaccine is sort of cult like behavior.
