"science" is another hoax perpetrated by the left.
the left knows nothing of skepticism or research or the scientific method or peer review or statistics or critical thinking. i imagine 95% of their scientific inquiry goes beyond memes at worst and the wikipedia opening paragraph at best.
the way the left uses "science" is just rebranded religion for those smug atheists... a means by which to control the idiot masses. i dont give a FUCK if those sheep think im "anti-science".
I agree that people nowadays forget that science is based on challenging hypotheses and revisiting assumptions when facts change. It has been weaponised nowadays.
I am only pointing out that using the term "hoax" (while I agree that the over-reaction the pandemic is the hoax), it can be easily misconstrued as denying the virus. The virus is real and the number of deaths is real and significant. Throwing the word "hoax" blows up the argument/discussion unnecessarily.
You may not care what other people think, but popular opinion drives social policies. And social policies affect us all. Hence, we have to win arguments.
All I am saying is to fight it with logical arguments based on science to win people's minds.
Example:
I have told people I know that vaccines take a long time. Anyone with knowledge of how clinical trials work, know they take a long time, and may not even be 50% effective. There was no vaccine created for previous coronaviruses like SARS and MERS, that I know of.
Even some vaccine experts are doubting if an effective vacine can be created due to the nature of infection is technically outside the body.
Because of the uncertainty and indefinite target date for a vaccine, it is foolish to keep the economy on lockdown.
The death rate is pretty low for healthy individuals, and if the more healthy people get the virus, the more we build up herd immunity (science).
The more herd immunity, the sooner we can get back to normal life.
The "number of COVID deaths" is indeed "inflated" depending on who's counting it, and which country.
The "number of CASES" which includes asymptomatic cases, is greatly hyped by media for fear-mongering.
It is the number of hospitalized cases and number of deaths per capita, that matters. And as far as I understand those are really low. Hence lockdowns are not justified.
But some of you here seem to be fixated on calling the whole thing a hoax.
Brushing off deaths as a hoax is not going to convince others. For anyone who knows a victim, it is downright insensitive.
All I am saying is if you want to be effective in getting people on board, then argue the points, don't just call everything a hoax.

Umm the number of deaths is absolutely not real at all. It's a hoax
Yup. I couldn't read anything he said after reading that part. He sounds like a concern troll.
Maybe next he'll ask you guys to acknowledge your white privilege just a bit or else liberals won't think you're cool.🤷🏿♂️

Done arguing points. If you can't tell it's a flat out hoax then Idk what to tell you.
5 months of pointing to the numbers is enough for me
5%, not 95%?
