They are so freaking STUPID... to blame the unvax... so ignorant on so many levels. When all science is compromised and big pharma is a business.... that would be a no for anyone who sees it.
I got into yet another argument with my mom about mask and vax. She is a teacher and believes every word of MSM. She says that she and her students have had no problem with masking, she has had no issue with vax (though after minor procedure she got blood clots which was just after the 2nd jab). I told her I have read studies and done my research and I believe both are harmful and I shouldn't be forced to do something based on observations not real studies. She basically tells me I am too stupid to read studies and be able to tell that they are real studies as well as observations are really studies even If they don't have to have a control.
Anyways, I am so frustrated with the lack of analytical and rational thought from people like my mom that just believe everything they are told. It is like they have completely forgotten the basics of biology and how viruses work. They have lost their critical thought and questioning skills. I have a lot of family members that got the jab and have no idea what it actually is.
Its not that hard to understand. You dont need a degree. Plain old fashioned common sense tells you everything. From the start everything they said, the opposite was the truth.
And not just the virus and jab but in politics, everyday news
She is right in one thing, observations are studies, they are the first step in identifying questions. She is letting other people ask and answer the questions though, based on the observations they pick. That's the important point, all observations have to be considered, not just the ones you like. If you are willing to continue arguing, you can start printing articles from NIH/PubMed. They look much more impressive that way with the letterhead and all the references, and it is official government stuff. However, my experience has been "I showed your papers to an actual doctor and he was dubious" about the findings of 50 PhDs and actual doctors.
Right, observations are the start of the scientific method but you can't claim an observation is scientific proof unless there is a control and replication of data. You are right, they pick the observations that fit what they are trying to sell and ignore everything else. I have sent her stuff from NBCI and NIH and the CDC and she refuses to read any of it. She does not want to see anything that goes against what she believes.
It's a battle neuther of you is going to win so take the discussion off the table. Talk about other things - there's a universe of other topics.
For all we know, she may have reduced her lifespan with the jab, so make the most of the time she has left. Let her know you love her even if you can't agree on some things.
Someday, either through natural or jab-induced causes, one of you will no longer be around for the other to argue with and that's not the time for the one left to realize that precious time that could have been spent with someone you love was wasted because you couldn't force/reach agreement on this topic.
Why argue at all? The truth needs no defense. Take your jab, enjoy. I'll tell you no thank you and it's your life you hazard if you press me further. To me the jab may as well be a gun you point at me. No means no fuckers and from there on you stfu and mind your own business. Then we can be friends. Maybe.

When someone accuses you of being uninformed,
Just reply with, well i guess if im not informed, then im not able to give my informed consent.

Then all you can do is keep your distance and/or restrict the things you talk about.
