The poor Chavista street thugs are no more in power in Venezuela than the antifa street thugs are in the US, if so they would be fat and wealthy like Maduro. You have to distinguish the tool from the master wielding it. The way Chavez revol

Traveling Europe it's easy to see how much more convenience and position inherited wealth used to grant. It's very human to feel entitled through birthright, and to change the rules to benefit your in-group over the majority of pe

And it's the same kind of ideology that ruins both countries in spite of both being extremely rich in natural resources. My impression is that the various offshoots of Marxism, e.g. Chavismo in Venezuela or wokism in the US, is a means

"Child" is common parlance for pediatric, a teenager is both a child and pediatric, and the pediatric covid death number includes teens. Also, you keep not addressing why it’s safe or scientifically credible for the FDA to break l

Also, a degree may have a negative contribution. Is the ideological bend of some college degrees potentially harming mental acuity through confusions and bad mental habits? E.g. if you take a math degree that teach "2+2 != 5" this

That is why it may be better to evaluate the statement "college improve your lot using median outcomes" using outcomes for college graduates that do not come from wealth and that are not skilled enough to get into top-tier univers

To add detail of the parents motivated reasoning. If by "Covid still hundreds of times more lethal for children than the flu" the parent means "flu as the one officially detected in 2020 instead of the around 200 that is norm

Yes, I am incorrect with that article so when determining covid pediatric severity vs normal flu year let's just go ahead and assume all 400 pediatric covid deaths over 1.5 years are correctly classified. You are incorrect on pediatric

If covid was 100 times worse then the flu for kids we would see 40,000 to 80,000 pediatric deaths for 2020. We see about 266 which is comparable for the 180-400 for the years I cited. The new test knows the difference between flu and covi

If you have omicron it is mild, so I indicated early treatment options for other variants as they are still around and have effective early treatments. I would personally still get early treatment regardless of variant.

Normally a vaccine trial lasts for 5+ years, and many vaccines do not survive the trial due to adverse effects. You can not know longer-term effects before the 5 year trial has concluded, so approving after a short trial and then inevitably

It seems reckless to me to enroll a kid in a vaccine trial where the FDA decided to skip the science advisory panel for childhood vaccines [1] because they last time denied the request. The way this is handled is unscientific, and I share t

Thank you for being honest and straightforward about your communist sympathies. So many that agree with critical social justice play word games to obfuscate their radical position as a classic liberal position. I agree that instead of the t
