    Food for thought here. Why are so many dissenters censored?

    WHICH Scientific Consensus? - LewRockwell

    This is intended to inform numerous posters here who contend there have been no dissenters to the official narrative, no whistleblowers regarding the manipulated data, and so much more.

    All the best. :angel:

    Good question.

    What your question reveals is that "scientific consensus" is not science. Science is, rather, a set of falsifiable models that predict nature.

    This is an especially dumb thread. Obviously it needs to be linked to a blog.
    Let me ask you and all your fellow conspiracists, what is the goal of the great COVID conspiracy?
    Who has conspired for what reason to bring us this conspiracy?

    Honest, this is simply ridiculous.

    Naturally there will be dissenters or those who just like to argue...

    I could waste time and key strokes giving a proper answer to your questions, but I've known for years that it is much easier to fool a man than it is to explain to him how he has been fooled.

    Yes, and naturally there will be censors and gate keepers of official narratives, just as naturally there were book burners in earlier days.

    Manipulation of the public perception has been a full time job of governments for a long time.

    As Casey noted, when everything the American people believe is false, we will know the success of our misinformation efforts.

    This is code for "I ain't got ****, so I will just insult you instead".

    At least you are consistent.

    Such riveting argumentation there, mentor59... do continue...

    So what? A person can form arguments on a blog, just as a person can form arguments right here on politicalforum.com ...

    I am sick and tired of this "conspiracy theorist" nonsensical retort that leftists have been programmed by their mind masters to repetitively bleat like a sheep towards anyone who disagrees with them... All you are accomplishing is committing an appeal to popularity fallacy. You are dismissing an argument because you perceive it to be an unpopular argument, not because of any lack of merit.

    I explain it here: https://politiplex.freeforums.net/thread/68/cult-mask

    In short, the goal is to destroy capitalism and nationalism and replace it with socialism and one-world-government. IOW, to transfer wealth and power from the working class (you and me) to the elitist class (Uniparty career politicians and multinational corporations).

    See above.

    No, it isn't. Your belief that Uniparty career politicians and multinational corporations have your best interests at heart is what is simply ridiculous. Your willingness to continue empowering and enabling such elitists to bend you over furniture on a daily basis (by your compliance to their illogical fear mongering tyrannical dictates) is what is simply ridiculous.

    What is going on in the world right now is MUCH more than Demonkkkrat vs Republican and urbanites vs rural folk... It is working class people vs elitist globalist tyrannical power/control hungry Satanists.

    Such elitists, such as John Kerry, are now proposing that we remove all CO2 from the atmosphere. They are quite literally proposing doing something that would result in (and even require to fully achieve) the complete and utter destruction of all life on Earth.

    Since I'm a Christian, I believe that the second coming of Jesus Christ is VERY VERY near if government elites are openly proposing such life ending ideas...

    True. I decided to waste the time and key strokes answering his questions. It won't benefit him any, but it may benefit others who stumble across it and are willing to use reason.

    While there are off the wall beliefs on the right and left it isn't a unreasonable to see that Covid has been used to manipulate people for political purpose. It has definitely made us more susceptible to far left pie in the sky ideas. That isn't who we are any more than screw everyone who needs a hand is. There is a silent middle that is being jerked around from both directions.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Again, I ask, what is the goal of the great COVID conspiracy?
    Who has conspired for what reason to bring us this conspiracy?

    Peace

    I have never read an editorial in my life. I could never understand why people do. I, unlike you and frankly the overwhelming majority, can come to my own conclusions though my God given intellect. (I am a stable genius)

    I am a republican.
    This is a worthy goal but who are these mysterious conspirators?

    You have no clue what my belief is. You are too stuck in your black and white world, of "you are either with us or against us" to ever understand.

    Juvenile.

    Loony toons.

    Okay.

    To hear ideas from others that they haven't thought of before on their own? To hear someone else's perspective on a topic?

    No, you allow others to do your thinking for you. You have not shown any evidence on this forum of your ability to make use of philosophy.

    If I am looking for a laugh, then yes, my following of your posts would benefit me greatly.

    If I am looking for smart articulate rational intelligent discussion, however...........

    Pssst . . . anyone can sign that and check a box claiming to be a scientist or medical expert. Anyone. It has been signed by such medical luminaries as "Dr Person Fakename" . . . yes, that's actually one of the people you are citing as part of some sort of "scientific consensus." Or do you prefer "Dr Johnny Fartpants", who is also one of the "scientists" you guys are trying to count.

    Please don't lecture people about "manipulated data" if you are going to peddle this hot garbage.

    Hell, even the "medical experts" that signed their real names include homeopaths (worse than snake oil -- at least snake oil actually has an active ingredient), massage therapists, and a guy who claims to heal people through Tibetan throat singing.

    This is the equivalent of saying that there is disagreement among astronomers about whether or not Jupiter exists because an astrologist who writes horoscopes for the local newspaper told you that it doesn't.

    Someone should tell India that Covid is nothing but a conspiracy. They are digging mass graves across the country.

    So declares Dr Johnny Bananas, after all. And he's part of a new, competing scientific consensus. At least according to the OP.
