There is no system in place for "judging" what is "essential" or not. The ENTIRE thing is bullshit.

You might be surrounded by people who are naturally immune, or something. For once, this is something I have researched, and something I have experience with. Yeah, the advice we're being given is rubbish, but COVID-19 is an actual problem.

It's a problem that the open honest science is being obfuscated and censored, if this so-called virus is even what they claim with their proprietary tests and vaccines and shit.

Patents on natural life are illegal. Making bioweapons is illegal. Either way COVID-19 patent holding is illegal.

The so-called threat is LESS deadly than the flu, a MINOR problem.

Time for you to dive into some more skepticism in /s/Coronavirus and don't forget to bring your thinking cap.

I don't even know people who know people who got it around here. I know only 1 person on Facebook in SF who got it, and recovered.

I don't even know people who know people who got it around here.

People around here have been taken away in ambulances and have died. People in my ~1000 strong local community. If people around you aren't getting ill? Great! Doesn't mean it's affecting nobody.

Just because your leaders are taking advantage of the situation, that doesn't mean there's no situation in the first place.

People die. Average age of COVID deaths is 82. Average lifespan is 81. (Varies from nation to nation.) Always with at least 2 co-morbidities. They're gonna die anyway. People in motorcycle crashes are called COVID deaths. It's fucking stupid. All you need to do is pass a test. We still don't even know what this COVID-19 is other than what they allege it is. The tests are proprietary. Private patented info for profit. There are so many false positives and people being told they have it and they haven't even tested. The thing is a joke if it's even real. ALL doctors, scientists, nurses, and people with related expertise who challenge the official narrative are CENSORED. All they do is drum up fear. They NEVER discuss solutions, such as the potential in the various chemicals and treatments they are CENSORING - including the fundamental Vitamin C.

Just because you want to have blind faith in your leaders, doesn't mean they aren't lying to you perpetually about everything - including this "situation". Shake off the irrational fear porn and wake the fuck up and put on your skeptic hat and do some serious investigating, not regurgitating. FUCK THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA PROVEN LIARS.

Each sentence in order:

Yes. —. —. (True.) Not always, but that's pedantry. We all are. —. Yes. —. I know a bit. Yes. Yes, and it sucks. Yes. Yes. No – they're ignored, that's different; you can still find what they're saying if you look. That's nothing new, and you can still find people who aren't. Not sure who “they” is in this sentence; LessWrong's been discussing this since the pandemic began.

I don't (my leaders suck), and I know they are; I'm sure most people do. I'm not regurgitating. They're not all liars; the Murdoch-owned ones are, but some others (e.g. BBC, unless an election coincides with the charter renewal) aren't.

You NEED to watch this before you continue to have faith in and support BBC and similar government propaganda outlets: /s/WikiLeaks/comments/6ntt/the_bbc_prepares_another_hit_piece_on_independent/

I can't find the transcript link. Could you post it, please? (Or, better, teach me how to fish find it on the Corbett Report website.)

[–]JasonCarswellVoluntaryist 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

While I'm pretty sure some of his interviews have been transcripted, and much of his content is translated to other languages, it's not listed there.

Of course there's the YouTube auto-translate that you can read.

I said you need to WATCH it, like a human being, not a bot processor.

But if you absolutely must read it, I'll take the auto-transcript and format it for your processing pleasure - and then Corbett can share it with the world too. I don't want to, but will if it makes you realize the corporate media, especially government media, is BEYOND unreliable.

[–]wizzwizz4 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

It probably won't make me realise that, so there's little point you expending time on it. (Though I can probably script something to parse the auto-transcript myself, so it'd be a waste of time to do that anyway.)

P.S.: I have realised why I listen to you more than I feel I should, though: when you're talking about problems, you talk like a CAPS-USING Richard Stallman. (Which isn't a good thing; people still think Richard Stallman is crazy, even though he was right. I've heard How to Win Friends and Influence People is a good book for this kind of thing, but I haven't got around to reading it.)

First: /s/politics/comments/6k15/the_sneaky_corona_virus/pi4i?context=3

I can't be bothered with your code. Give a proper answer including the question to be clear or don't bother.

"They" = those who censor, the lying government and media, as usual

I don't know LessWrong well. You may have linked him before. There are many more who are also less wrong, and no shortage of them have been shared in /s/Coronavirus if you still doubt.

ALL corporate media are perpetual liars. Including and ESPECIALLY the BBC, Ch4, ITV, CBC, and any government media. You're delusional and hypnotized if you think otherwise. Break free. Just because you like their shows or personalities (why their paid to be there) doesn't mean they aren't professional perpetual liars (even if they don't even realize it).

[–]wizzwizz4 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I can't be bothered with your code.

But I see you got a good way through it before giving up. :-p I'll translate the bits I'm not certain you understood.

It's fucking stupid.

Yes.

We still don't even know what this COVID-19 is other than what they allege it is.

I know a bit.

The tests are proprietary. Private patented info for profit. There are so many false positives and people being told they have it and they haven't even tested.

Yes, and it sucks.

ALL doctors, scientists, nurses, and people with related expertise who challenge the official narrative are CENSORED.

No – they're ignored, that's different; you can still find what they're saying if you look.

All they do is drum up fear.

That's nothing new, and you can still find people who aren't.

I don't know LessWrong well. You may have linked him before.

While LessWrong has been used as a pseudonym by the autodidactic polymath Eliezer Yudkowsky, LessWrong's now a forum home to essays like There is a war., and a recent (~9-month-old) subculture performing independent, amateur research on COVID-19; here's their link database if you want to skip the wordy.

Break free. Just because you like their shows or personalities (why their paid to be there) doesn't mean they aren't professional perpetual liars (even if they don't even realize it).

I understand what you're trying to say here, and it's valid, and even by my standards I'm probably being a bit too trusting here – but you'll have to work on your wording a bit if you don't want to sound like a loony. If you're trying to do outreach (which you sound like you are), you're not going to get NTs on-board if you talk like that. This criticism brought to you by “I'm probably beyond help, so somebody might as well get something out of this conversation”.
