Did you skip over the position she holds? It's the Fox guarding the hen house.
my brother is an MD.. he doesn't get any kickbacks that I'm aware of.. so should I not follow his advice on medical matters?
agree w/ your point that they shouldn't be able to get royalties for their recommendations, at that point they are just a paid product spokesperson and we all know not to blindly accept what they are pitching.. There should be laws against this type of shit
I've seen experts like Scott Gottlieb and others debate plenty on social media.. And, my doctor isn't even on social media so how do I know what he tells me is right? I ultimately don't...but I value his perspective because of his expertise.. I ultimately get to decide myself whether or not I follow his medical guidance.....same with car repair guy or apple Genius Bar guy.. but on balance they are considered 'experts' in their field for a reason and I am probably better to error on following their advice on certain topics
You're going to go with that a lot of Doctors weren't silenced? Did you dig through China lockdown thread?
wait.. that twitter link is the basis of your 'research'?Experts were not allowed to debate on Social Media. Only those that agreed with the Narrative.
Dig through this. It explains a lot.

re: Operation Mockingbird.. not new news or a surprise that governments (and private companies) try to spin the narrative to fit their cause.. that is SOP and has been for a long time.. fortunately, we have whistleblowers and checks and balances built into our system to help expose a lot of it.. unfortunately we have a large portion of society who is gullible and lacks the critical thinking skills to discern what to agree with and what not to..
I will say I think it is a major issue in society that it is very difficult to know what is true and not true.. there is so much information available, and from so many sources, vs. how it was in the 'old days' when people (blindly) trusted the 'media' .. and probably this is a good thing because it makes it harder for gov't or anyone else to completely control the narrative because there is no way to completely control all sources of information or media
yes I missed that connection.. I thought the comment was about her saying she had to remind him to take care of himself, etc. and that people were actually making fun of that, like he was some feeble old man who couldn't do it himself.. I agree we can't have the fox guarding the hen house but I don't think she was solely responsible for that was she? and in general, I choose to believe Fauci by and large is a decent human being trying to do the right thing to the extent he could
It's footage and information coming out of China. Are you seriously not smart enough to go through it and connect some dots? I guess you could just follow their State Sponsored Accounts?
I choose to not go down the internet rat hole of that thread.. I am not naïve to the issue of conspiracies, and I believe they exist (i.e., I personally doubt the Oswald lone gunman theory)... but I also think it is difficult for any one group to control the global media or global set of private companies who are involved in something this large
I guess I'll just have to live with the fact that I am not smart enough.. We all have the free will to believe what we believe.. you go with yours, I'll go with mine
fill me in.. based on your research.. what is coming for me in the coming year? I want to make sure I am ready
It's going to be a long year for you then.
It's not one group. It's many. Propaganda tug of war that between the highest bidder and ideology types. Several Governments and groups involved.
so who should one trust as the source of the truth then? Fox News? Tucker? one's own internet research? Q?
Ok don't research or listen to anyone who has worked in the system. Watch Morning Joe. He will tell you what you want to hear.
Trust no one 100%. Not even me. I'm human. Try to look at stuff without confirmation bias.
Let’s get real. Twitter accounts from well respected ID’s which linked peer reviewed
Studies were buried by the media. Some lost their jobs for actually doing sound research and releasing their findings. Our gov. Suppressed data that would have changed opinions and the political responses.
As far as trusting your local health care providers, I think your posting”s make it clear that bias exists at every level. I posted during the early days of this that my ID friends were being told to stay quiet. I am blessed to have real experts that helped my family through this. My local HCP’s were all 100% wrong
So you are saying the virus became smaller as they mutated and that is why the masks don’t work now? In a couple more mutations we will have to live in bubble to stay safe.
Putting faith in Fauci already hasn't aged well. It won't improve.
I think it’s a labor of love from the media. Most of them are more progressive than the politicians. What’s funny is everyone on the far left coin a phrase all at the same time and start using it on the airwaves. It’s quite a coincidence.
Practicing MD’s don’t get kickbacks anymore. 30 years ago it could be debated they accepted gifts from Pharma that could sway their medical opinion. Not anymore. Research MD’s are a different animal. Their research depends on Gov funding most of the time. They make sure they comply or they are out of funding.my brother is an MD.. he doesn't get any kickbacks that I'm aware of.. so should I not follow his advice on medical matters?

No. Again, the viral load needed to pass the infection from one person to the next is dramatically lower in the Omicron varient than in previous ones.
Nothing in my opinion is wrong with your approach because nothing is being mandated. You’re being provided choice.my brother is an MD.. he doesn't get any kickbacks that I'm aware of.. so should I not follow his advice on medical matters?

That’s probably never happened.
That’s hilarious. Yes people are flocking to Florida and Texas, but most of them aren’t Americans.
Thanks. Now apply that to various masks and other intangible aspects of mask wearing. A well fitted N95 is all someone needs for protection. No need for everyone to wear a cheap mask and wear them in a manner that renders them ineffective. If you need to wear a mask. Do it RIGHT.
Democrats are counting on them for future votes. Aren’t all states getting illegals though?
This is the party that Jimmy supports now. So that's one Liberal willing to talk about it.
The Movement for a People's Party (MPP), also known simply as the People's Party, is a progressive political organization in the United States aimed at "forming a major new political party free of corporate money and influence".[4]
They tried to recruit Bernie however in this video he does call him out.
Maybe the far left supporters should watch this. I don't support their solutions to what's wrong but I can respect he is willing to call it out.
I don’t consider myself a liberal.
I supported the overturn of Roe because I believe in the decision belongs with the people to decide if it’s something that should be allowed, not the courts. I supported it being returned to the states to decide and states should put it on the ballot.
I also support same sex marriage and the legal protections that affords the couple. I don’t believe they should be able to force someone to support or forced to take part in their marriage. Churches shouldn’t be required to marry them. Churches can voluntarily do it.
That all said, I’d classify a liberal as one who lists social issues as their top issues as you seem to have led off with here. I don’t and wouldn’t put social issues in my top 5 issues I vote on.
He lost me when he started on what weapons I should be allowed to own. Personally I think the tax stamp needs to go away.
That's a speech, I have to keep an eye out for deer to shoot, mine won't be as long.
I agree with most of your's, except marriage is a religious construct and has no business being defined by government. Civil unions is what the feds should define, and either get married or not in the church of your choice.
I don't think you realize how batshit crazy progressives have went. It's far beyond 20%, or they control everything important with that 20%.
He cut out dogs vocal cords so they would cry as flies ate them.
Rubio, Paul, Colleagues Send Letter to Fauci About Cruel Puppy Experimentation He Funded Through NIAID

should citizens be able to own tanks? nukes? I'm being extreme to argue a point, I realize.. but if we agree the gov't has some role to play in regulating certain things then where do you draw the line? Or do you prefer the gov't has no role in regulating anything and we all should be free to do whatever the hell we want? Why have laws at all then if they intrude on my rights?
the AOCs of the world are still the minority IMO.. and in terms of marriage, your definition would say an atheist or agnostic heterosexual couple was not allowed to legally be married? They could only have a civil union? Why should religion be the basis of our laws when by definition our system of gov't and laws is intended to be secular? What you are describing sounds closer to religious theocracy and more akin to ISIS, etc.
(ok, maybe I'm intentionally trying to trigger you now)
should we eliminate all animal-based research or just those that have happened under Fauci?He cut out dogs vocal cords so they would cry as flies ate them.

Married couples would have to have civil unions as well in order to be recognized by the feds. Why would an athiest want to be recognized by a church?
Citizens can own tanks. Tom Clancy had one.
Citizens can own Heavy Machine guns, explosives, etc. It’s regulated and in order to do so, you freely give up your right to privacy and have to allow the Feds the ability to search your residence.
As long as we follow the process to propose and pass laws, that’s fine. The courts act as a balance to ensure constitutionality of those laws.
