We didn't get our asses kicked, we've just realised that you lot are too stupid to reason with, so stopped trying.
Great response JP82.
We're tired of engaging in a battle of wits with unarmed men!!!
When you learn to read properly and UNDERSTAND and APPLY statistics, I might consider engaging with you.
To add onto what JP82 and tobago wrote the responses from the anti vaxxers isn't conducive to bringing someone straddling the fence onto their side. I went through the entire thread to make an example about the credibility of the sources from both sides.
Anti Vax
www.westernjournal.com - founded 2008 blacklisted by google and apple news due to disinformation in 2017 (before covid)
thepalmierireport.com - launched in 2016. Described by David Greenberg a historian and professor of history as well as of journalism & media studies at Rutgers University as a "junk news site" . Label a fake news site by Columbia Journalism Review and The Intercept. I could actually go on. Arguably the least trusted source to bring up in modern times
leohohmann.com - this is a website by a journalist named Leo Hohmann. I can't get an article earlier than november 3rd 2021. He works for worldnetdaily, a site thats been accused by the southern poverty law center of "anti-government conspiracy theories, gay-bashing, anti-Muslim propaganda, and End Times prophecy"
remnantnewspaper.com - a traditionalist Catholic site has been in publication since 1967 Described by the southern poverty law center as an "organization(s)that embrace anti-Semitism and whose theology is typically rejected by the Vatican and mainstream Catholics in general."
Wsau.com - this is the website of a radio station not a news publication site
Tagesspiegel.de - its in german so I can't verify what is written
Texasgopvote.com - earliest article published may 7th 2009 also has nothing to do with covid its an article that speculate that a man, who was trying to make a connection between prescribe drugs of murderers and the act of murder they commit, was assassinated
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - National Center for Biotechnology Information - first article was not an anti vax article second had nothing to do with covid but other vaccines but its a credicle source
www.ecdc.europa.eu/ - European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control - once again not an article discouraging vaccination but a credible source
Washington post - founded December 6th 1877 reputable source but not an article discouraging vaccinations
I24news.com - founded july 17th 2013 in the article the isreali prime minister Naftali Bennett encourages parents to vaccinate kids and companies to allow employees to work remotely so Im not sure if its anti vax
Newsweek.com - founded February 17th 1933 though the article doesn't discourage vaccinations its a credible news site
Abc.net.au - Australian broadcast corporation founded july 1st 1932 I'll give you credit on this source its actually reliable

Pro Vax

Iol.com (independent online) - serves as online versions of various publications namely :The Star founded january 6th 1887, Pretoria news founded 1898 (they've received journalism awards from the national press club and SA sports awards), The mercury founded 1852, Diamond fields advertisers founded march 23rd 1878, Cape Argus founded 1857, Independent on saturday founded 1998, the sunday independent founded 1995
Apnews.com - association press founded in may 22nd 1846 winner of 54 Pulitzer prizes
The Atlantic - founded november 1st 1857
Point I'm trying to make is pro vaxxers reference award winning sources that have been in publication for 27 - 175 years and employ a number of journalists whereas anti vaxxers post youtube and twitter links along with recently founded sites that aren't reliable or are run by sole individuals with an agenda. I will credit the links that have been posted about statistics regarding infections but that isn't enough
