Indeed. This fellow makes a tidy living preying on the easily led and weakminded.

WJ, are you by any chance a moon-landing skeptic?

The comments are outstanding. I can’t work out if it is some massive piss take or there are genuinely gullible, idiotic loons prepared to glory in it.

It's really something, reading through those comments. Here is one I have picked out fairly randomly:

'The "crime" has been going on for 6000 years!!! Most people believe it is the year 2020, ....which it is, ...Anno Domini, ..."in the year of our lord" BUT , .... the people who are running everything, The Papacy/Jesuits/Freemasons are LUCIFERIANS, ... and they go by Anno Lucis, or "in the year of Lucifer" ,... and to them it is the year 6020 A.L. Want ABSOLUTE PROOF of this?! just google image search "Freemasonic temple cornerstone" And you will clearly see, IN STONE that they put the year that they built that particular masonic temple in BOTH A.D. AND !!! '


Walking amongst us. Driving cars, operating machinary. Terrifying.

Encouraging news from the vaccine trial.

To keep the anti vax loons happy, it does seem to have some side effects. Nothing that can't be cured with a paracetamol.
Ironically the vaccine is almost certainly safer to take than the paracetamol.

Yeah but what does The Lancet know about medicine eh? biggrin

On a related note has the percentage of certifiable morons in a Society always been static, or are they increasing in number? They seem to be increasing which makes me wonder how and why, when access to knowledge is exponentially easier than when i was a lad?

In't t'olden days, the pub loon sat on his own, dribbling into a flat half of Skol and muttering about moon landings and lizards. We all ignored him, like the fat racist bloke who hovered on the edge of a group conversation - the one who had dinner down his front and never nobody every knew what he was called.


Now, they can go on line and talk to other like minded dribbling loons, and the anti-vax Karens can talk to other deluded morons.

They now all then sit in their self congratulatory echo chamber, rapturous in a purple fug of bks, bobbins and utter bellendery.

Really? This man is a DR who worked as a GP. He could have made a fortune in that role but decided he didn't want to be a big pharma pawn.

Well I'm definitely one of the 3rd.

I'm not an anti vaxer for polio or MMR. They are awful conditions for which a well proven and minimal risk vaccine is available. None of that is true in this case.

C19 is a small risk to all but the most frail.

A vaccine developed in a few months under huge political pressure and with enormous rewards attached cannot possibly be as well proven. It wouldn't take years of carefully controlled trials for other drugs if it was that easy.

Make it voluntary by all means, sell it at pharmacies or give it to anyone who wants it. The idea of making it mandatory is appalling and I for one would rather go to prison.
Prision would not be fair on the other prisoners and officers. You should simply have to self isolate at home until you have the vaccine or pass away.

Seems fair to me.

Remember the scene in 1984 when the proles start a fight over the last cooking pot available and Winston feels a frisson of the power they would have if they weren't consumed with such trivial bullst?

Social media has simultaneously empowered them and filled our minds with bullst. The masses aren't using the internet to study genetics or statistics, they're sharing memes and conspiriacy theories. And unlike the tabloids, it isn't a daily dose, it's an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Even the History Channel, presumably for people who purport to be interested in history, is full of alien conspiriacy theories and treasure hunting, with little archaeology or history.

We've swapped learning, which is pretty dry a lot of the time, for being entertained.

I think another feature of social media, this forum included, is that you can only take posts at face value. Thus the opinion of biologist has the same value as a guy who watched a video on youtube.

That's before we get to the bog standard biases we are all raised with.
