@Shadowman311 Imagine trying to give a name for every variant of the flu. Several come out every year. That's what they're doing here, except they're doing it with more fanfare than they do for flu variants.

With flu variants, they typically give them alphanumeric combinations rather than names because there are so fucking many of them. Medical researchers do study flu variants for various reasons, like to try to create flu shots each year that work well enough. They speculate about what the flu will look like this year and make a bunch of variant vaccines hoping their guesses are correct. Another reason to study flu variants is to try to observe their migration patterns. Guess where they all start? Southeast Asia.

What's worth noting is there isn't as much drama about this as there is for COVID. In the case of the latter, there's a lot of fear mongering going on. Flu shots are considered optional, and the only argument to get them is so that you don't miss a few days of work. People don't act like you're killing Grandma by skipping the flu shot, which hilariously makes me more inclined to get it.

Honestly, if Pfizer and all these other companies didn't create this massive fear campaign and try to pressure me into taking it I might have just gotten it: "hey, we've got this experimental new mRNA vaccine technique for coronachan. Getting the flu sucks! Skip that noise for just $20 at Walgreens. We'll come out with another one in a year when it inevitably mutates"

That honestly sounds like a fair enough deal, sign me up. Instead of being calm and sane about it they lit their own hair on fire. Like I said, were in not for that I think "anti-vaxers" would still look crazy and not, like, the adults in the room
I'm starting to think all these new COVID variants are just the result if doctors and "medical researchers" running out of topics to research, or ones that'll be accepted by medical journals, so they find one single change in a COVID sample (that could be easily chocked up to human error) and then say that it's the result of some new variant.

Yeah... a person doesn't have to be a scientist to understand that one badly researched jab is a bad idea. But the booster shots... That is a DEADLY idea, since repeated treatments do increase a chance that something eventually goes wrong to 1.

In the same way as drinking for example. 1 night is statistically ok, 1 night every week means you're dead within 3 years.

@synapsid
I just love the fact, how these people kept repeating for decades just how horrible the de-personacion of jews was, and that germans were the worst people in history of morality.

And now.... after decades of repeating it.... they truly do not understand what they are doing, when they say that group of people should loose all of their rights and be put to a camp...

Facebook is now narrative control, selective enforcement, and endless censorship... if your goal was to "give people the power to share and make the world more connected" you FAILED, Mark! Truth is... You are a fraud!

The first season was so close to actually being good. The core idea was great, but they were just too afraid to fully lean in.

I haven't seen the 2nd one though. I was too disappointed by the ending of the first one.

This just fucking lazy. They don't show the core thing of this entire anime. Just white light.

Exactly.
The moment Hilary said that she consieres half of US as "bunch of deplorables that are sexist, racist, homophobic, islamophobic... you name it", I knew something is truly rotten in the way elites see the society.

@Terry
Why are the incels getting radicalized? They see no future in their family life and we call them racist terrorists whenever we get a chance...

Why cannot they just accept this and become a good docile wheel in the system that offers them nothing?

Both sides think of the childern. That's the problem, the argument is invalid.
