no one here is acting like the know it all except one person maybe two.

no one is saying don’t listen.

for me, if some posts an article that has something I can relate to then I’m going to look into it.
If I need a more professional education, I’ll go the specialist. Crazy thing is, there is something called a second opinion. Even if they have differing veiws, at least you have more info to make an educated decision.

I said very early....shit I damn near begged people to just educate themselves. It wasn’t adding up to me and it’s still not.
It’s wasn’t about anything more than that.
If I called anyone out their name for making the decision to take the shot, imma hoe for that and I should apologize.

But I’m not going to stop posting the shit I know about being in the industry for 12 yrs and some other shit I got going on leading up to possibly getting the shot I’m not gonna speak on incase shit goes left. Lol

that’s why I say.....the loud niggas in this thread have a very surface understanding of this shit.

it’s a fun read tho

Just telling people to educate themselves isn't enough though. People will read anything, usually only stuff that lined up with their pov, then consider themselves educated. And even more educated than people who have been studying for years what they're just now looking up.

If you're gonna keep telling people to educate themselves then it also means you gotta point them to some actual resources and not just send them off blind to try and figure out some shit they have no clue about

You like keeping your foot in my neck or something?

plenty others you can fuck with.

and you a bit right tho. I feel like, people are smart enough to just start with their own health and body, and not parroting shit they know nothing about but an expert had said, but the fda approved and other shit.

As I've said before in these covid threads most people don't even know their own medical issues so saying to start with their own bodies may not be the best starting point.

Some people just need to shut up and listen and not even do their own research, lol. Some people have to be saved from themselves, hence the vaccine rules Biden just put in place. We do it all the time with our laws cause people in general are just stupid.

I’m not calling out anyone in this thread of course because I think most here are pretty level headed even if we disagree. But the general population I think we can all agree are not intelligent enough to really decipher the Covid/vaccine research enough to draw any real conclusions for themselves.

Hell I’d say we’re not even knowledgeable enough to do it real justice, at least I know I’m not. I hadn’t studied virology or immunology a day in my life from a credible institution. I think any of this “research for myself” talk we do is just so we feel better about what we’re already going to do and so we feel some sense of control.

Nah quite.

I feel if you going to put some in your body you should at least know what it is or at least know your body.

I understand what you saying but that don’t fit this way.
I research any prescribed medicine.

I love this country because they tell you all about the side effects and let you choose which medicine you want to take.
In the states you take the medicine from the best salesman.
Shit I actually like to be proven wrong because I can learn something. Shit agreeing with me ain’t helping me.

Exactly! I respect what @ChicagoFigure brings to this debate 100%, but I’m not basing my health decisions on anything anyone says on a forum, including myself. Same way I wouldn’t work on my very complicated German cars based on YouTube videos.

I do choose who to listen to based on who I think is the most credible, the same way I choose one mechanic over another.

Only thing I would say is I dont really like the YouTube analogy. I make sure to post reputable sources not some random guy off YouTube or Twitter. And rarely will retweet some shit without checking it out extensively.

My sources are experts as well, only thing they might lack is mainstream narrative (though there seems to be a slight shift in certain cases).

But beside all that not tryna convince people to agree w me, just that some of us have very plausible and reasonable logic even if it opposes others.

Your point about not trying to convince people is probably the key. I was saying although I like all of the info you provide, I’m not going to base a decision solely on that info because I’m not going to vet all of that myself. I don’t want to be an expert on this stuff so I only listen to the experts I find credible.
