I'm pretty shocked with this. I grew up in the UK during this time and the trust in doctors was absolute. We were all plebs and were told what to do, no questions. We all complied. Yes sir, no sir, three bags full sir.
As someone who previously trusted "people of science" and the scientific method, I've come to realize that my assumptions were misplaced. The shenanigans of the COVID period, government censorship etc.
I find it exceeding hard to trust anyone is competent in anything. The overpriced general contractor that take shortcuts and have to pay someone else to redo work, medical people that prescribe medication/procedures based on a script (e.g. prescriptions of Ozempic).
I tend to go down the path of treating people respectfully and then quite rapidly, it goes down to they just start saying stuff that doesn't make sense (logically) and just want me to accept it.
This sounds ridiculous but FFS. My tech/analytical, data-driven approach to solve problems seems to be a better model that anyone I deal with.
Hopefully it's not Occam's razor that AITA.
- cryptonector 2y agoThe UK used to be quite extreme in forcing people to get the smallpox/cowpox "vaccine" in the 19th century. Compliance rates were quite high in the 1840s, but by the 1880s they were very low because people started to figure out that there were serious issues with that vaccine. Similar things happened in the Spanish Flu period as in the covid period, including anti-vaccine protests in Ottawa and anti-masking protests too, but by the mid-1920s everyone had forgotten completely all about that. I wonder how soon we will forget all about covid.
