The Dive's Covid Thread

Tbf I read alot of experts that have substacks. The difference is, many times they are much more trustworthy than any mainstream source
That's just because they're saying things you already believe. You're appealing to authority- fine, authority can be legit. But it's no different to the credentialism you criticise, except maybe slightly worse because it's your confirmation bias and feelings making you think it's all true.

I distrust mainstream media and rarely consume it. Alternative media is not automatically better just because it's not mainstream. It's often way worse because it's unfettered by an institutional reputation. It doesn't have to be credible and in fact thrives on being conspiratorial, inflammatory and pseudo-heterodox because this appeals to the millions of edgy "free thinkers" who all think alike. It's big business, this substack prophesying you seem to blindly worship.

jerkoffs like you come into this thread, which is an anti-vaxx thread if you haven't noticed, and complain about all the anti-vaxxers



that's like moving to Africa and complaining about all the black people

No it’s usually bc their explanations are based in reality, and don’t have a profit motive tbh. It’s just like with ivermectin, anyone with a brain knew it helped or at least there was no harm in trying it. Anyone that consumed msm literally thought it was poisonous horse paste that was sending people to the ER. But I understand the spot to where you are stuck here, and my sympathies go out to you.
 
The thing with Ivermectin is it ironically keeps people hooked into the very paradigm they think they are rebelling against. They think it works against covid, because it appears to alleviate symptoms.

It's an anti-parasitic. More people than we realise are carrying all sorts of parasites, which put a load on the body and divert nutrients and resources away from other areas of the body that need it. Reducing that load allows faster healing elsewhere. It's not rocket science. People are tremendously unhealthy, eat atrocious diets, and lord knows there's legions of moronic dog and cat owners who are getting far too proximal with these filthy animals that carry all sorts of parasites.

This I actually agree with. I got banned from a substack with 10's of thousands of subscribers because I kept driving the point about what we really know for sure in regards to virology and health in general, and this guy was hawking Ivermectin and some other product and didn't take kindly to the fact I was showing up his own bullshit.

Everyone wants a jab or a pill. Just so they can go right back to shovelling in all that disgusting shit they eat and not moving more than a couple hundred metres in a day (if that). The statistics don't lie, everyone is fucking fat as fuck, and even those who appear outwardly buff are still destroying themselves with steroids and overloading their GI system etc.

3+ years and the worst thing I've had is a minor inner ear infection from blowing my nose too hard. Fucking nonsense, all of it.

You're projecting here dude. I don't care what you guys choose to do. You guys are obsessed with this and have spent 156 pages yelling at strangers about it. Maybe calm down a bit, it can't be healthy.

there's a lot more than 156 pages - you just showed up again recently and put your mod vest on and now you wanna tell us what to do when we've been doing it since the beginning of the plandemic


why don't you calm down

I seem to have upset you. I sincerely apologise for disrupting your echo chamber. Let's have a few hundred more pages of illiterate reactionaries agreeing with each other. 🤪

The group mind has spoken. Although I'm surprised that it has the same sort of demeanour as a group of cliquey teenage girls. Very revealing. 😎

Anyway, learn how to take a joke. Don't take yourself so seriously dude. This is the Dive, I'm just giving you shit cos I thought you could handle it. Live and learn eh.
 
we both know that's a lie. unlike you, i was on staff for more than 10 minutes... and you continue to prove daily why you were a shitty staffer.

cope more? :)
