lunatics

"Oh, well if they're lunatics, no point in listening to what they say."

["Should ban them for misinformation so we never hear their madness."]

Gotta love those fallacy combos, like this circular-reasoning echo-chamber ad-hominem hasty-generalisation. The power of pre-deciding and curating a socially dominant groupthink terrorising for coercive conformity to "the one true way". The pithy shrieks, of "lunatics", "witches, "conspiracy theorists"... get around the world a dozen times, while educated minds, open minds, curious minds, genuine sceptics, nuance seekers, honest researchers, epistemologists, etc are still getting out of bed. ... And have already been cast out as these dangerous "others" to fear.

Oh look, there are patents for putting wifi nano-biochips in jabs... Huh. ...

But still, the power-corrupted nepo-club of blackmailers and child traffickers, who hijack hierarchies and have revolving doors to regulators, and kill populations by the millions in unnecessary "resource wars" to maintain dominance... maybe they still care, and wouldn't use those on us. ... I'm sure it's fine. It's just cheese. It's just to protect their intellectual property purity and profits. For "profit medicine", saying "a patient cured is a customer lost, and a dead patient is just a cost of business" is probably nothing to look into and consider and scrutinise.

For super super sure, maybe they care. :3

Funny how world views get protected, with lies we tell ourselves, when the crooks abusing us admit what they're doing, if only we'd look beyond our world view we re-write over and over [like an llm trained on itself, getting into hallucinations more and more removed from reality] to see where they promote their plans.

Just as pens make poor binoculars, belief makes a poor means to determine reality.
