  1. note to self : file under lost cause . irreparably damaged
  2. Personally ...... i always believe the tall, better looking politicians and spokespeople. And damn, how can anyone watch those newstations with ugly anchors ? Why don't they dye their hair blond like everyone else !
  3. well, that is your opinion . and so , it shall also be your bias ..... which ultimately means that you will trust the sources that confirm your bias . Try Jeff Childers for a week or two . He's pretty entertaining
  4. I am almost positive that PBS will have a biased take on any "report" they do. However, i would watch it with an open mind. 60 minutes used to be very popular ( long ago, when real reporting and views was allowed ) . Not so, anymore. The deep state is the ultimate censor . But there are hidden sources ..... shunned by most who are told that those sources are from quacks. for a simple start ( not too crazy ..lol....) try subscribing (free) to Jeff Childers Coffee and Covid daily newsletter . and read comments .
  5. Bob Dylan did not have a degree in meteorology ............. but there can be no doubt , that common sense from intelligent people, those with open minds, will surely figure out ... "that you don't need a weatherman to tell which way the wind blows "
  6. Hardly anyone in the "public eye" ........ as well as anyone involved in politics or a position within a mainstreet corporation or banking institution or medical institution or ... ( video of the "swarm" to follow) .... NONE of these entities that are complicit in following the dictates of the DEEP STATE , or in laymens terms, those who control this little thing we call a planet .. None of them want to end their position and entitlements and MONEY that are most dear, much more so than disagreeing with little things like right and wrong. And so that , sir, is why barely anyone talks about vaccines .
  7. Definitely the ones who are bombarding us daily with the constant reposting of all the crazy "get the jab" nuts and lies from years ago. I think i saw one or two with "psychos for soros" hoodies ..... with pull down masks no less.
  8. i often stay away...... for long periods . lol by this time (many years) i don't take things or people seriously . Its just a forum , and you're right...... its all about clicks
  9. excuse me for some more condescension , since you seem pretty strange . What don't you get ? Off the beaten track Forum for exploring alternative ideas, theories, and perspectives outside the mainstream. Share, question, and discuss freely—no proof required, just open minds!
  10. captain Flack already addressed that . everyone reading and posting here understand that there is great leeway as to topics and opinions and sources . Being civil to each other is really what is most important, and required, though not always adhered to . so....... what don't you understand ?
  11. such a laughable post ...... oh, sorry..... according to you i must say "in my alternative opinion" to everything that YOU would say is the FACTS . Well, Facts change over time ....... and whether you know it, or believe it, sometimes you are not the one who is proven correct . Most sensible people who are not on a forum to have constant debates, realize that others are expressing their views (with sources ) just as they are. Where does the "wrong impression" come in ? Weird .
  12. This should give a clue : VAERS COVID Vaccine Adverse Event Reports” default data reflects all VAERS data including "nondomestic" reports. VAERS HHS data underreported by 10x – 100x (phpstack-630326-2751601…). Summary 38,773 COVID Vaccine Reported Deaths / 49,840 Total Reported Deaths 221,257 Total COVID Vaccine Reported Hospitalizations / 316,440 Total Reported Hospitalizations 1,666,646 COVID Vaccine Adverse Event Reports / 2,682,925 REPORTS OF VACCINE ADVERSE EVENTS IN VAERS Details 1,666,646 Reports COVID Vaccine Adverse Event Reports Through August 29, 2025 38,773 Deaths 221,257 Hospitalizations 156,907 Urgent Care 248,414 Doctor Office Visits 10,976 Anaphylaxis 17,941 Bell's Palsy 5,194 Miscarriages 22,362 Heart Attacks 29,012 Myocarditis/Pericarditis 73,866 Permanently Disabled 9,434 Thrombocytopenia/Low Platelet 41,255 Life Threatening 47,439 Severe Allergic Reaction 16,404 Shingles This sums it up..... till NOW, that is .
  13. hahaha only 9 deaths attributed to the vaccine. only our esteemed MSM worshippers could not see the "tongue in cheek" ..... or better yet..... the absurdity of that claim. They don't even read any of the govt's or pharmas own admissions . the bricks surrounding their brain walls are inpenetrable
  14. i do believe that all politicians are finding out what happens when wef comes calling
  15. Don't forget the unforgettable .....carried over thousands of TV stations almost word for word : "If you take the vaccine , you won't get covid . Period " (Biden, also head of CDC Walensky) ... and ..........shutting people up , " just two weeks to flatten the curve" and......... all those "approved" sources parrotting , without any proof ... "Safe and Effective" so please........... some pretty smart guys here can't do the research to find out who OWNS all these media outlets and who pays for the Harvard studies and the Reuters stories and AP and the washington post and ny times ? and see how biased cnbc and abc and cnn etc etc etc . are ? i never paid attention till the covid madness was being foisted on the world . THAT's when i started reading other sources . And they were right . Not all of them. Not all they wrote. But much more so than the obvious lies we were being forced to accept . Not to mention taking unproved shots . I know a lot of you are sorry now. Why you don't admit it...... who knows. But to still curse and slander those small percent who stood their ground , pretty sad . WHY are you not really pssd at the ones responsible for what transpired over the last 10 years ?
  16. some people think the "combination method" is 10k in their bank account ........ and 10k in an envelope !
  17. If they are an active poster on AN ....... that could be a very difficult task for many
  18. such conspiricies clearly exist. the talking point lists have been found, the influencer paymasters revealed, and whole ecosystems of reporter embedding to push climate and race and who knows what else established and unearthed. much of the news and the feeders for the news (like AP) are pay for play activist organizations. where you have sufficiently intense ideology, no conspiracy is required. cognitive dissonace will suffice. when you believe X firmly enough, you will reject evidence that contradicts it. this is an ingrained human trait and one made more acute and irirresistible by the peer pressure of conformity demands. if you are committed and your tribe demands your commitment, contradictory data is simply discarded. and this is the axle upon which modern propaganda practice turns. lies, damn lies, and post-truth media el gato malo Sep 23
  19. yep.......hypocrites abound on these forums. And always proclaiming their sources are non biased . forget it, RP ........ those brain walls are impenetrable
  20. everything depends on the individual . ask any motorcycle .
  21. yours is a good example ( family, not yet old , and i assume working) where the premiums , especially 10 to 20 years ago , could be "reasonable" . And, your choice to give it up , and the reasons, make sense . Many of the members on this forum probably fit into the category where they are single, or have Thai families that are covered by the Thai system . For those who are "ageing" and living on a fixed income, and investments , well........ insurance has gotten exhorbitant, and less and less is covered . It's then that one has to assess their own health condition, lifestyle, and whether or not their stable income can keep up with the voracious appetites of the insurers . Some people live a 9 to 5 worklife for most of their best years, save what they can, and feel safe living with the fruits of their labors. And insured . Others are maybe more "risktakers" ....... retiring early to enjoy a more vibrant life while they can . It takes all kinds . Some risktakers manage to learn and adapt to not using first class hotels and very expensive hospitals . IF they have saved , and enjoy a "modest" but free and easy (compared to their homelands) lifestyle ...... and often they are more creative moneywise than the work till 70 retirees...... then having a decent nest egg which can take care of MOST medical situations (no, not triple bypass with double amputations) , is a great way to enjoy life while it is still enjoyable. Works for some. Just as paying large premiums yearly works for others. Seems like the ones with the most problems are the insurance advocates . Maybe so, until their exclusions outweigh what they're covered for . lol
