Guess we are done here.

The problem, as ever, lies in the endless repetition: the regurgitated memes, the lazy copy-paste jobs from fringe websites, all devoid of credible sourcing or verification. This is the lifeblood of conspiracy theories - unfounded, unexamined, and unrelenting. Hence the need for this sub-forum: a sandbox for fringe thinking.

 

But what’s become unbearable is the sheer volume. The same tired nonsense recycled ad nauseam. How many times must we endure the same idiocy paraded as insight? The memes are stale, the arguments disingenuous, and the intent rarely more than noise. It’s not debate - it’s spam. Meme after misinformation after meme, all lobbed by those seemingly mentally incapable who believe they are free-thinkers.

 

Eventually, we have to stop being polite and call it what it is: idiocy.

 

And if you dare glance at the anti-vaxx threads, you’ll see the same predictable circle-jerk - four or five usual suspects high-fiving their own delusions. Any meaningful engagement is drowned out by the sheer volume of rubbish, so others, quite sensibly, no longer bother. It’s not a conversation; it’s an echo chamber, shrill and vacant.

Okay fine, attack the content until it goes away or is proven wrong, but no reason for personal insults... that's BS and something I don't do. I might say what someone says is BS, but I don't attack them personsally in a vicious way saying all sorts of judgemental things about them... as when you do that, you lose the argument.

As written my post referred to only USA.  There was not a single case of measles that was not imported into USA for several years, starting in 2000.  That means there was no measles virus circulating inside USA.   All cases were due to an infected person entering USA. That's why it was declared as eradicated inside USA.  The CDC took measles very seriously and tracked and traced the source of any cases.

 

No wonder you're confused.... your reading comprehension is subpar. 

This is a great example of how trolling ASEAN now is with some of the resident trolls.... so many times it's attack the poster and try to belittle them instead of disagreeing with the content of posts. This is unhealthy and a negative for the forum... fine if you disagree with the content, but no reason to attack the poster with personal insults. I know we can't say anything about moderation, but, well, okay. Another troll on the ignore list.

Except you forgot these also have all but disappeared (until anti-vaxers showed up) in USA:

Measles (2000)

Neonatal tetanus (2000)

Congenital rubella syndrome (2004)

Respiratory diphtheria (2009)

Nonsense, measels has and is around in many places and never vanished, and the others on that list have only been erradicated in certain areas. This post is a huge pile of trolling freshy-laid steaming BS. Don't believe it, then Google each one... nothing to do with anti-vaxers.

People have lost faith in the medical establishment and industry. Long time ago we managed to erradicate smallpox, but nothing since. I try not to be too cynical, but as long as it is hugely profitable to treat rather than cure, then we will always be unhealthy. It's also a little like how Ike after WW2 was against making an industrial military complex and industry as if war is always profitable, then there will always be wars. 

There has been much erosion of trust in big pharma and the medical industry and of instituations like the WHO, FDA or the AMA etc. in the recent past as much detrayal is suspected... and let's not even get started on the Chinese vaccines, WHO chief Ted Dross covering up for Beijing, and why the files for big pharma on Covid/vaccine are sealed for 75 years and they have been given immunity from prosecution etc. I'm not a huge conspiracy theorist, but there is plenty that doesn't pass the smell test and is highly suspicious... people just don't blindly trust or believe what they are told now, so it gets even more murky and opaque, and maybe by design.

Going down the "If she's trustworty..." route, whether married or not, and you have been together for a long time with you thinking of just opening her an account in her name to avoid all the hassle, then open one which is in her name but has no ATM card and only a bank book... then hold onto the bank book yourself and each month deposit money into her account (tell her it's for her future), or if you get notice of your upcoming demise, then transfer more. I can't imagine a long-term trustworthy partner being anything other than content with that arrangement, plus you maintain a degree of control over the situation. Just an idea that ran past me sometime... key factor is the word "trustworthy" obviously though.

I'm a fan of the lyrics in Hendrix songs... very relevant, even now. However, many kids and old people are lost... although, the Eagle's song like "Hotel California" is a good example of the EU and other institutions now etc. haha.

Hardly a personal attack. I was replying in kind to your patronising tone.

Again... subjective response... opinions are like <deleted>, everyone has one (Clint Eastwood). Try to challenge the idea or statement... not attack the person, as you'll get more respect if you do that.

Congratulations. As incoherent mutterings go that is near the top of the list.

 

You have just proved beyond reasonable doubt that you are just another in the long list of those who doesn't have the faintest idea what he thinks Brexit should look like.

Subjective topic....  haters going to hate. No need for personal attacks... stick to the topic.

What should Brexit look like? What deal (with the EU) could and should have been brokered? 

You confused people would not like the real answer to that... hence why Reform UK is crushing it. If you are not Bristish, then I forgive your ignorance... but if you are from the UK, then you might as well vote for the Illiberal undemocrats with that opinion.

Not Brexit really as Brexit hasn't really being delivered due to spinless politicians. The reason the immies are all coming to the UK is because of the far-left policies and pull factors, which make it so easy for them, and that is not the case in most EU countries. The UK system prioritizes illegal immigrants over our own homeless and veterans etc., which is not just dumb but dangerous in the long run as people will eventually boil over, and we are starting to see signs of that already. The only way to stop the boats is to take away the pull factors and make it less attractive than other places... do a Denmark or Australia, that will work.

The clock is ticking for the UK government to do something meaningful about it or soon Farage will be PM... which might be a good wakeup call for the deluded and lost two traditional parties. Even the far-lefties like Unite union baron types are getting pi$$ed off with Labour, as no-one really knows what they stand for, same goes for the Tories (won't call them conservatives because they aren't).

Corbyn is a polarizing figure and will just split the lefty vote... go for it moron. The left at the moment is a collection of fools that only have in common that they hate the Tories... but don't realise there is a lot of difference between themselves.

Looks like yet another trolling anti-white westerner thread zeroing in on the US and Europe. No mention of scamming Chinese hoards or penniless Indians that camp on the beach at night instead of having a hotel room and bring electric rice cookers with batteries so the can cook outside... not even a mention of dodgy Russians evading the draft and trying anything and everything to stay, legally or not. 

Nice try at trolling though, give you that... but ultimately a fail.

Bad idea to sell any of these countries jets used by Nato , as likely they/information will be passed on for reverse engineering to Beijing to gain favour. Luckily for the UK that India and Beijing hate eachother, otherwise its recently stranded F-35B that got stuck at an Indian airport would be a disaster waiting to happen... even though, wonder if anyone tried to get a good look at it, even the Indians.

No point keep posting these scare stories as the the public's trust and respect for the WHO, big pharma, and the medical industry in general has seriously erroded in the last five years. For example, who listens to what the CCP stooge Ted Dross of the WHO says anymore?

A lot of foreign men move to Thailand at least partly because the only women that they have a chance of being with back home are women their own age. Why would you want to be with a bossy, nosy, difficult 65 or 70 year old woman, if you do not have to? No thanks. Life is too short for that.

 

 

There is absolutely some truth in that comment SM... even if other stuff caps it off.

Anutin clearly saying who is the boss here.
