And you wonder why so many non-NPC thinkers don't trust the SCIENCE from I AM THE SCIENCE Fauci.

If science cannot be questioned, it not science...its propaganda.

how long have you been questioning whether the earth is flat?

[–] chilone (17860) 3 years ago

Idiot. Science has been wrong about too many things to count, throughout history. Not everything that someone SAYS is science, is science and/or is possibly not correct. "Science" said at one time, not so long ago that we were headed for another ice age.

[–] Solastine (1104) 3 years ago

So how long have you realized we never landed on the moon and the earth is really flat?

The problem with your argument is that just because science might be wrong sometimes ddoesn't justify questionining everything, so if science can be wrong about COVID, ehy isn't it also wrong about the shape of the earth?

[–] chilone (17860) 3 years ago

You clearly have a problem with reading comprehension. Actually a core principal of science IS to question everything, dumb ass.

[–] Solastine (1104) 3 years ago

I get you failed out o critical thinking but Why aren't you also questioning whether the earth is really flat, instead of jus tissuing nonintellectual rhetoric about how people should question COVID?

What if it's both? The Laser test shows no signs of the earth bending. You go to a flat plain with a laser and it keeps going and going, it doesn't get higher and end up out of view.

🙄🙄🙄

Seriously?

You surely are aware that science was basically invented to combat the church, that couldn't be questioned...yes?

On a side note... Why are you so threatened by flat-earthers?

Only true science is true.

The only thing true to science is following the Scientific Method.

Martin Shkreli is no saint, but he was the scapegoat for that whole thing. The interview he did with Destiny is very informative.

[–] Rorikon (17855) 3 years ago

Yep, he says everyone does it in the big pharma industry and put the spotlight on them and what they do behind the scenes when no one pays attention for the most part.

All this crap about "trusting the science" is just the left's way to bully us into submission. Another tool in their evil toolbox, like their handy dandy labels. If you don't buy into their narrative, you're ignorant, uneducated, think the earth is flat, blah, blah, blah. All very Nazi-esque. It's comical when the most ignorant people among us go around call others ignorant.

[–] Leodicaprio (6426) 3 years ago

Yes just like the nazis....and you are just like a smart person...

[–] CraigC (8160) 3 years ago

You are. You hysterically accuse the right of being fascists and Nazi's, all the while the left exhibits all the behavior of Nazi's and fascists. Which is itself an attribute of Nazi propaganda.

The trusted science once told us smoking was healthy and cleaned the lungs.

The trusted science once told us that some races were inferior to others.

The trusted science once told us Thalidomide was safe.

The trusted science once told us margarine and processed vegetable oils were healthier than natural butter and lard.

The trusted science once told us to avoid sugar and instead use healthy artificial sweeteners.
