Well, no. I'm just rather selective as to where I get my information from is all and even then I often cross reference to see if it holds up to scrutiny. So obviously, sources such as what you routinely link to don't pass muster.

Um, you can hardly have it both ways where it comes to the CDC. As with the links I provided to you, the CDC supports lockdowns and has the data to support the efficacy of them along with other safety measures. All you've done is cherry pick two states as if that's the yardstick as to the...

Zerohedge?! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Hedge Yeh, that's the first port of call for intelligent journalism... About the best thing Scott Atlas did was resign. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-55141055

The CDC supports lockdown measures, social distancing and mask wearing as effective in curtailing the spread of the virus, which common sense should tell you as to why. There's nothing 'draconian' about implementing such in the situation of a global pandemic of a new virus that has undergone...

Well, I didn't want to be hit by such a pile of ignorance so I chose to duck...

Well, you're the one who doesn't give the CDC any respect now, so by association, you can hardly support RD's position when he uses the data as source material.

You skimmed it at best. It went into complex detail as to why there was a similarity with the figures on an initial level but then explained the reasons why with comparisons to other states. It favours safety protocols but also explained as to why. I'm not surprised that you don't want to...

You didn't even read the article, otherwise you wouldn't have made such an ignorant comment.

The source of RD's data emanates from the CDC as he's stated himself. What contradictions are you referring to exactly?

Here's an opportunity for you to learn something, if you're willing, rather than relying on cherry picking data to tie in with your confirmation bias. As you've already been shown, the CDC supports the efficacy of lockdowns and other safety measures in order to reduce the flow of the virus...

Oh, I have more choices than that thanks, one of which being to point out that even in states or regions where there isn't a largely significant difference in terms of infection rates with differing approaches to the pandemic in no way reduces the efficacy of such measures. For one thing...

Given the disarray that the bonkers outfit is/was in then it'd be difficult to track down one individual post. Considering that numerous sources tout it as their underlying ethos then are you suggesting that it isn't true? It's been doing the rounds for years and it's only recently that it's...

You're kidding, right. It's hardly a secret: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/53498434 https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/qanon-conspiracy-theory-trump-uk-europe-b1807171.html https://www.nytimes.com/article/what-is-qanon.html

Oh, I waded through the drivel and dismissed it for what it was - bunk. You don't get to determine what 'facts' are just because you buy into an article that fits your confirmation bias.

We have a health care service that is available to all, regardless of employment or financial status. As it should be, at least in a civilized society at any rate.

You've got to be kidding. You seem to forget that there's more than enough footage of who stormed the Capitol that day and they were not 'Antifa'. Not to mention all of the arrests having subsequently been made.

Considering that QAnon promotes the ridiculous notion that Trump was fighting a secret war against an elite cabal of cannibalistic, Satan worshipping paedophiles then yeah, that's the kind of bonkers stuff that emanates from the American far right. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QAnon Having a...

"Facts?" With you, that's a pretty subjective term and depending on whatever stuff you're buying into, normally from some site that's decidedly biased. I don't tend to lap up any given stuff from the tabloids in the UK either.

So, do you consider a health care service that encompasses all citizens to be able to avail themselves of its services, regardless of wealth to be some sort of 'thievery' in itself?

Oh, "rationalground.com". That's just truth verbatim...
