I had friends who had it. They were unable to get the vaccine in time. Ended up disfigured for life.

The cornerstone of science is doubt. Any real vax scientist would welcome criticism and challenge from the inventor of RNA vaccines. In related news, the cornerstone of religion is faith. Neil has sure changed since 1970's protest songs against the Man. (image redacted) Neil had polio. His stance on vaccines and against lies is understandable. And I've known and worked with people with polio. And I support fully-tested and vetted vaccines. Recall that one of the original live polio vaccines actually gave people polio!
Au contraire, one of the worst things about these rushed and forced vaccine policies - and the silencing of those opposed to such a regime - is that it has elevated anti-vaxxers from crank status to mainstream. So now all vaccines are suspect by much larger segment of the population. I comment in my courses that bad laws make people less respectful of the law in general. The same is true for any public policy.
I'm just curious how many of you guys hating on Joe Rogan even know of Dr Robert Malone's CV, let alone have heard the interview?! I wish I could go back to 2020 and tell Neil Young that a Southern man don't he would be breaking his contract with Spotify to protest any dissent about the safety of the Trump-initiated vaccine, let alone mandates to take it! I wonder what he would say. 🤔 If your science is so sciencey (the scientific method invites doubt and challenge to its claims), I dare to you listen with an open mind to the Robert Malone MD PhD interview. Then independently fact check all that he says (not just link to some liberal journo linking to Politifact).

The grade 9 French teacher told him that he would never amount to anything since he sucked so bad in that class. My grade 10 French Spanish teacher who was French was a wonderful (albeit extremely loud and crotchety) woman and she saved me from a mediocrity track (or worse, expulsion) in high school when some other people disagreed and wanted me dispatched. As John Wooden said, "young people need role models, not critics."

So, I gather this means we all need to thank her for you being with us on this forum, right?

Here's a crazy idea: how about we stop trading opinions on COVID vaccines and go back to discussing Apple/AAPL? There must be a forum where those opinions would be of interest, but this is not one of them.

I wish I had contact info for Bloomberg's editorial staff. This Debby Wu tard needs to get a smackdown. Her twitter image is of a person with a giant persimmon as a head. Our family eats more persimmons that most, but that seems a pretty good smackdown already. Still, there is the twitter feed, if you really want to troll point out some of the mistaken articles about Apple.

There must be a forum where those opinions would be of interest, but this is not one of them. I agree! The relevance of it to Apple is - if we (we = society) allow too much of "if you carry * that*, you can't carry this", companies like Apple will have to decide between many things, and eventually those decisions could become mutually exclusive, and in general it leads to big problems and a very fragmented world of media. And "fragmented" is VERY bad for Apple.
