Like the religious extremists that destroyed American cities like Detroit and Baltimore in the 70s and after? Maybe it was this same religious extremism that is leading to the economic crisis today in Florida and Texas? /s
- suoduandao2 4y agoyou jest, but an officially secular system that asks us to 'trust the experts' has a lot in common with religious fundamentalism.
- suzzer99 4y agoAs a whole, "trust the experts" has a much better track record than "google what you want to be true".
- suoduandao2 4y agoA better track record according to whom, the experts? It's one thing when an expert in biblical study tells you not to do your own research. When the same instructions come from an institution deferring its authority to the scientific method, someone's very obviously gone off the rails.
- suzzer99 4y agoShould a random person with no scientific background or familiarity with medical studies trust their doctor and the overwhelming consensus of epidemiologists and virologists over Joe Rogan and a two hour youtube video? Yes, clearly. That this is even up for debate shows how insane things are right now..
- SuoDuanDao 4y agoThis video series: https://odysee.com/@BiohackThePlanet:3/coding-the-dna-for-a-diy-rona-vaccine:7 https://odysee.com/@BiohackThePlanet:3/coding-the-dna-for-a-... was created before any MRNA vaccines for novel coronavirus were scheduled to be released and the global research community world was scrambling for any edge against covid-19. It documents the efforts of a group of citizen scientists to develop and test an MRNA vaccine against Covid and test it on themselves. If you can offer one semi-compelling reason why it should have been removed from youtube without resorting to ad hominem against either me or the people producing it, I'll engage in some self-reflection.

No different than the catholic dominated political machines that ruled the Northeast. The thing is, you might be cool with their politics today, but religious extremists flip on a dime. You may not like them tomorrow.
