It's not insane. It is completely logical and rational

But it is a completely different semantic framework, where none of the words mean what you think they mean.

You'll never be able to counter this if you don't wrap your head around the source of the issue. These people aren't insane or idiots. They just define the world in a completely different manner, one that is useless for sharing information, but useful as a tool for getting power. And the way to fight it isn't to misunderstand their thinking and call it insane, but to reject outright the retarded definitions the ideology is based on.

Because we are stupid, by and large. They are too, but that doesn't matter

To elaborate a bit, surgeons wear masks because saliva is really nasty (compare a bite wound to a cut of similar size) and has all sorts of bacteria that should never, ever go into an open wound. Surgeon's masks are very effective at reducing the amount of saliva that gets into the air, especially when talking, sneezing etc.

Reducing the amount of saliva in the air does nothing to protect against respiratory viruses. No surgeon in the history of ever wore a mask so that his patient didn't get the flu during an operation.

And it's not just about servility, it is safety theater.

Mask don't anything at the scale of these particles.

As it should, because it's way more dangerous if you aren't an 80 year old or 500 pounds.

She meant that she has a hard time understanding anything Biden says.

I understand complying with the rules even if they are retarded. I don't understand why you would do so in good faith.

If you're going to put on a mask, or let your kid wear one, put on some bullshit mesh mask. It is exactly as effective as any other mask. Q

I wonder why the parents of children forced to wear the masks don't simply provide them with 1 layer of gauze.

I didn't mean to call you a retard and I'm sorry it came across that way. The point was that the idea that this whole vax thing is all somehow tied to IQ is retarded. Because it is outright wrong, tied to emotions and doesn't fit into an accurate model of reality.

IQ is measured by a statistical test that seems to approximate your basic cognitive capabilities (which seem to be mostly physiological) in relation to others. Things like working memory etc.

But the speed with which your brain can process patterns and the amount of data it can store and retrieve in its cache have nothing have nothing to do with the correctness of your conceptual model of reality. If you feed the fastest brain in the world 100% wrong data, it will just go literally nuts-off-the-wall crazy trying to understand a reality that cannot make sense. Literally what gaslighting does.

Your processing speed doesn't affect your emotional state, or the filters this puts on your senses. It doesn't make you not ruled by both passions and chemicals. It could be argued it makes you more susceptible because you'd be better at rationalizing your irrational behavior.

To vax or not to vax is tied not to IQ, but to your levels of fear (something that is not controlled by IQ in anyway, it requires different methods), your levels of trust in authority and your desire to conform. Again, none of those is strictly tied to IQ (there might be a relationship on the low-end in terms of trusting authority as a learned behavior because you have to do it much more often if you're stupid).

If you trust "the experts" (and all of must do so necessarily to a certain degree for a given value of expert ) and you want to conform (which is a completely natural desire) and you're terrified of the disease (which, no wonder, I was terrified of it myself) you will take the vax. This doesn't make you stupid.

Lacking in wisdom and experience, yes, maybe, but not stupid.

Don't be a retard, this has nothing to do with IQ.

Dividing this into "hur dur, I'm smart cause I didn't get the vax and they be dumb" is lying to yourself.

Look, no one is saying the left hasn't gone off the deep end, and very quickly. They've pushed their ideas so far past reality that they are no longer viable outside of echo chambers and safe space bubbles, which is why they have to ban people and control discourse.

But you're also living in a world that is run on leftist memes socially, culturally, largely politically and economically. Even Christianity is now largely a milquetoast slab of leftist meme about being accepting and tolerating degeneracy.

Most people accept most of it

Just because things change, doesn't mean they didn't happen.

The left having trouble pushing new extremes, yes, but to live in a country where gay marriage is a thing, everyone is terrified of saying things like "fag", children can get HRT and minimum wage exists and then say "the left can't meme hur dur" is fucking retarded.

We can laugh all day about how the left can't meme, the fact is that the left's memes won.

Gay marriage, diversity is our strength, racism, rape culture, my body my choice -- all these memes control the current discourse.

We have 50+ years of actual scientific evidence that unequivocally says that none of that stupid shit is effective against the flu, which is why we never did it for flu pandemics.

The flu is gone for different reasons

Potato in Chief is a clear llustration that the office of POTUS is a giant sham and has little to do with actual power.

Oh it will be, don't you worry. Just need to update it so that it's an RNA flu shot.

People aren't poo. Even the shitty people.

The audit will find massive fraud.

At best, some scapegoat is going to be arrested for this and the establishment that defrauded the American people will continue defrauding the American people.

OK, suppose it will.

What then?

Are people going to get angry and go out in the streets or something?

I 100% know that everyone, myself included, obviously holds about 0.0001% , give or take a few orders of magnitude, of the actual knowledge that exists in the universe.

And yet everyone, myself included, holds opinions on things that lie outside this sphere of known individual knowledge. The vast majority of people have far greater scopes of opinion on things that they don't really know than the scope if things they do. And most of this opinion is regurgitated bullshit from the media.

Unless you're a semi-omniscient superhero aid from a bad comic book, the same applies to you.

It's worse than that.

All the things you know about anything happening in the world, you know from media. And all of it is tainted by falsehood and is thus false.

The things you know about Sadam? False. Lybia? False. Ukraine, Philippines, Russia, Assad, Turkey -- all false.

And yet you continue to believe it.

I mean, when was it ever any different?

That's what the powerful unaccountable elite do and the reason they want to remain unaccountable.

It kind of is society's fault. Democratic urban plantations where poverty and crime are nurtured are not OK. Total permissiveness, even encouragement, of this type of behavior as somehow valid because "its the culture" or whatever is not OK.
