Well, coming back to this thread was about as useful and as much fun as I thought it would be.
You have really convinced yourself that this "information" in this crazy article is somehow equivalent to -- or even more reliable than -- basic, verifiable mortality statistics, right? I honestly don't know why I thought there might be a chance you would rationally engage with any evidence that conflicts with your beliefs, no matter how clear cut.
Oh well, maybe there are some lurkers who will find this shit show of a "discussion" illuminating, even if it is for all the wrong reasons.
You'll be pleased to hear that's it for me again... Enjoy the diversity of thought you cultivate on the board.
By the way: if you ever come to accept that >1M in the US have died from COVID, how about you donate the $10,000 you owe to whatever is the top-rated charity at the time on
The Life You Can Save?
