It's like a game of whack-a-mole. They just keep popping up.
Indeed. They make statements like YOU JUST HAVE TO LOOK AT THE DATA, then you show them data and they totally ignore it.
COVID has finally convinced me that there is no point trying to change anybody's mind. This is depressing for me, because once upon a time I was an idealistic hippy that wanted to change the world. Now, I realize there is no point... but there's always a silver lining. After all the frustration I have endured wasting my time trying in vain to convince people, it is comforting (in the same way I imagine death is comforting) to finally give up.
Like I said, there is either a sensible explanation for Victoria or there isn't. I don't care about Florida or New York. It doesn't explain Victoria. Herd immunity is not a sensible explanation either.
Victoria is proof that masks and/or lockdowns work. Check mate. End of discussion.
Yep. There just no point.
Your comment about whackamole is a great one. Cause that's what they do. They, both conspiracy theorists and the nonsense they parrot, use various psychological tricks to convince people. And one of them is flooding you with so many individual pieces of bad evidence that it tricks people that if even a portion of the evidence is true the whole thing must be. This of course has the side consequence of tending to make conspiracy theories insanely convoluted.
It's the worst thing about youtube, it's a breeding ground for the most brainwashy conspiracies to thrive.
Amusingly thrive itself is also the name of a pseudoscience video on YouTube :D. One I had the unpleasant experience of having to sit down and watch with one of my exes family.
