The important thing is you cannot turn these people around. Arguing with them is fruitless because they don’t want to see the data. They will only come around when the people they trust change their position.
This is why we need to focus on protecting doctors who speak out.
Millions of otherwise brilliant people can’t think for themselves. It’s a flaw in humanity. The problem with them is that they think their brilliance in one arena makes them brilliant in all arenas. So their willingness to punt their health to the evil medical industrial complex is seen as brilliant judgement by them. They think their brilliance (in one arena) can’t fail them in any arena. This flaw makes them fucked nine ways to Sunday. They’re masters of the universe in finance, tech, engineering, whatever, but their inability to take a cold hard look at their own limits is their undoing. Pride is one of the seven deadly sins.
So true, and well said.
I wonder if the inability to think for one’s self is a result of prior vaccines and being programmed. I know that when I was in school, late 1950’s-1960’s, we were taught to respect authority and defer to our elders. Teachers of today don’t give respect, so they don’t command respect. Same with our political leaders. Now they no longer hide their disdain and act like ordinary citizens and their opinions are inconsequential-it is out in the open for all to see. They don’t care if you see their lawlessness, their greed, their sexual proclivities, because they know that they will get away with it. They have no conscience, no embarrassment and no remorse.
I have said many a time we are often our own worst enemies.
