My mom was a RN most of her career then got her masters and went into education. My dad is a nurse practitioner. I didn't specify it explicitly because I didn't think it was relevant -- I was not trying to use vagueness to imply t

Off the top of my head: Fauci told the American public that masks don't work. My mom already owned N95 masks and got looked at like a crazy person because she was wearing one when shopping, ect. Then suddenly it became "the scienc

Can you expand on why you were hesitant because of censorship? ... Have you heard rumors of some problems from vaccination? It made it more difficult to ascertain what the risks were, I didn't feel our officials were being ho

Her belief was that she'd be feeding into a system that encouraged things to happen that were against her principles. I wouldn't call that self harm out of spite. Spite would be "they were right, but I'll be damned if I

I didn't say they're stupid, I said their fools for believing what is obvious a bunch of politically motivated lies, science is no place for emotion. No, you said "while believing anything Trump says without questio

while believing anything Trump says without question. Trump is pro vaccine... He still brags about his involvement with Operation Warp Speed. How does this work out? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eA306aNtvmk I t

I don't think he's disputing that experts are real. He's saying that we need to be able to question the experts (ie the lab lead being refuted by scientists with massive conflicts of interest). Experts are also not a monolith

I was hesitant for a while and the massive censorship was part of it. I got vaccinated in May and have convinced others to get the shot since the side effects, while existent, appear to be minor compared to the reduction in harmful symptoms

Huh, looks like it was. That would make me apprehensive about continuing to trust them.

Then there's the whole 'we never keep logs' claim which can't be proven. So, caveat emptor folks! It can be trusted with a fair degree of certainty depending on the company. For instance, we know that PIA at t

Is this an insiders take on what is actually happening or just some bloggers fever dream? Its always hard to tell with finance.

Yes and no. Laws on when you must identify yourself to officers varies wildly from state to state but social media isn't a part of that. Lawfully refusing will usually be enough, but there are cops who don't care and will arrest y

I started programming in C when I was 12. Computers had always interested me so this was a natural progression. This predated regular internet access (if I was lucky I could get on once a day) so I was entirely dependent on books, all of wh

I wonder if this was the plan from the beginning. Perhaps the bankers and business people with no connection to reality just wouldn't believe how disastrous that policy would be, so they make the announcement and use the backlash to ge

The idea itself was not obviously satire to me, sadly. Once I saw the list I realized they were making fun of using version 0 as an excuse for unfixed bugs.

He didn't say that all measures to protect children should be rejected out of hand. He is just saying that if someones argument starts and ends with fear baiting around children then they probably have ulterior motives.

My uncle was a lifelong smoker and survived lung cancer (in remission getting close to 5 years). He vapes now and seems to be doing a lot better. It seems preferable to cigarettes considering his odds of full cessation are basically zero.

It did for me. Substantially. I had a rough childhood and homeschooling was one component so I don't know how much can be pinned to that one thing. It can be done well but has to be handled with care since isolation is dangerous. If yo

While the Youtube purges did follow some obvious political lines, most of them were nuts. The only reason you go to Bitchute is that Youtube gave you the boot so that's their niche right now. I think these companies are trying to posit

It is not disrespectful to the FBI or the government to expect that they play by their own rules. China is being dealt with like an oppressive dictatorship and the FBI is being interacted with like a law enforcement agency in a functioning

Is that actually your experience on YouTube or is this just something people say to encourage deplatforming? I don't think I've seen anything at the level of flat earth or Q on my related videos since like 2017... I've even a

While I agree that this book isn't very useful for self learning, I have to defend the model you describe as adversarial. I took CS473 at UIUC (it's CS374 now) so I can tell you firsthand the course is brutal -- easily the hardest

The problem is that the investigation is about figuring out who is actually the criminal. Cops deal with mostly bad people. Actually innocent people who get caught up in the criminal justice system are relatively rare -- ask any defense law
