And you are so confident that you have all the answers - that it's all just propaganda and hysteria and the entire world is being duped - not just in America, but nearly every single scientist, doctor, intellectual, politician from around the world who have spent years studying infectious diseases - they are all full of shit because out of 100,000 doctors/scientists, you're going to trot out 2 or 3 quacks trying to make money on Youtube, and say 'no! it's these guys who have all the answers!!'.
no, i don't follow any "quacks" on youtube...i merely observe, think critically, and make my own opinions based on evidence that holds up under examination and scrutiny
in regard to the abundance of "experts" that you've cited and their arguments...firstly i would contend this is more of a "jumping on the bandwagon"...a "don't get left behind the society"...and a "when in rome do as the romans do" phenomenon...it follows a common trend which, ultimately, i find to be unconvincing
furthermore, i would also contend that the characterization of "nearly every single XYZ" is a gross caricature of the reality of the situation as the breadth or "reach" or this belief system has been hyper-inflated due to the power of media...aka "propaganda" as you've mentioned
And in doing so, you are so absolutely convinced you are correct and are willing to gamble other people's lives on your opinion, rather than take the precautionary route.
it's the old argument of "you should believe in God because what if you're wrong"
i won't take the precautionary (aka tyrannical) route because i find the arguments, again, unconvincing
If there is even a small chance that you are wrong, potentially a lot of people could die.
and my soul could go to hell for not believing too right?
Because you do realize that the issue is not that everyone is going to catch covid and die. No. You think everything isn't a big deal right now because the people who are infected have access to care. If we followed your advice, and assumed it was all 'propaganda', you would see an overload of the healthcare systems. And now all of a sudden people wouldn't have access to treatment. What happens then?
"next two weeks are CRITICAL"...forever and ever until the end of time
don't go outside because the sky is falling...
if we followed your advice, we'll never leave our homes again...and those bodies surely are pilin' up in the streets as there's no room in the hospitals!
So if the economy is going to shit, it is because of people like you who refuse to take any precautions, and/or perpetuate the idea that it's not a big deal, which is why we see college kids having parties as if there is no such thing as covid.
"the economy is going to shit" because the powers that be want it to go to "shit"
ultimately they seem to have gained the technological means to finally take over the entire world...and jumping through their hoops whilst believing you are doing good isn't going to alleviate the problem...
it's essentially a new religion being imposed on a world-wide scale..."wear a mask for two hours on Thursday but not on Tuesday and on Mondays you can have a parade but not on Wednesday"..."go to church on sundays and get a cross on your forehead on wednesdays..."
the rituals are completely arbitrary and erroneous, hence why they are rituals...their goal is to unify the masses...a form of hazing to gain access and acceptance into the group...for the common man, at the primal level, this seems to be some kind of evolutionary survival trait to ensure that isolation/excommunication, and therefore death, doesn't occur
Much like all of your other half-baked-faux-edgy ideas, history will not reflect kindly on what amounts to selfishness and childishness.
"history is written by those who have hanged heroes"
no "half-baked-faux-edgy" ideas here...just an extremely intelligent, wise man speaking honestly
