What next for Covid treatment?

That’s a tough one. I don’t disagree, but I don’t entirely agree, either.

Ignoring stupidity allows that stupidity to appear reasonable to some. “No one is questioning this statement, so it must be right.” That is an approach taken by many. So I don’t think that all lies or stupidity should go unchallenged.

On the other hand, challenging every one of them is a Sisyphean task. One could spend all of their time debunking garbage and it would still never end.

So there has to be some balance - at least on a personal level. I do let many go by. But from time to time I pick one and challenge it. I don’t expect to change the mind of the one posting garbage. But perhaps it will have an impact on someone else reading in the future (whether that future be in the next minutes or years down the road).

Some people think Donald Trump is a clown; some don’t. If we want to allow that conversation in public, I think we have to allow other senior figures.

Defending it or challenging it whenever it shows up is a matter of time and taste. Please, continue doing whatever makes you happy and comfortable!

Fair enough. I picked the wrong set of bad actors based on some earlier comment.

That’s a funny one. Project Veritas is a right-wing activist organization posing as a news source. They have been caught attempting to plant false stories in other news outlets.

Project Mendacium would be a better name.

No more conspiracy theories please. This was meant to be a thread about covid treatment, not any ideas people randomly have about Bill Gates taking over the world or whatever.

That’s my whole point the only treatment for the coronavirus is the shot all other treatments were buried and covered up, that’s how you know they have evil intent.

Thank you pete. I saw this post about 1 second after researching O’Keefe as I thought the name sounded familiar. Something about dressing like a pimp about 10-12 years ago to “expose” something at a government office.

Anyway, I don’t see how any of that military paperwork contradicts Fauci’s testimony. If he wasn’t in on it he answered the question factually. He’s not in the military and his name does not appear in the documents as an “operator.” The juxtaposition of facts with the intention to deceive is fraud which is a form of lying. (In business it’s called advertising or “I’m just trying to make a living.”)

Happily, the P-box has a Forever option for individuals being foolish… This thread exposed a couple, pretty sad, actually, but, sometimes pruning is beneficial, long term…

Of course, demagogue driven superstition can only thrive in ignorance, as the foundation of faith is the total lack of evidence…
