Could it quite possibly be that the vast majority of the World are right and the minority are wrong in what they`re thinking @IMO ? So maybe it`s those minority need to open their eyes. Fuck knows but just a thought.
Possible but quite possibly not!

Just look at what happening in Europe now compared to UK which says it all that current vaccine is working in my eyes. Ok current vaccines may not work longer term different variants and such like, but facts and figures coming outa Europe (vaccine`less) and UK (vaccine`D on) speak for themselves on that score ie: peeps catching it and death rates etc. Unless that`s a conspiracy or whatever peeps wanna call it too ?

It all depends on what everyone's perspective is on who the mass majority and minority are to them. If you just watch TV and listen to the radio you're pretty much going to have that single narrative in your mind, so the 'majority' are with the government on this one and everyone must get vaxed, lockdowns good etc etc. Whilst the minority are those that are dead against the bullshit.

Where as now, you have social media platforms with vast amounts of alternative views, breaking it down black and white in simple terms too, which then provokes the mind and gets you thinking, pushing you to do your own research, and make your own informed choices. If you're going to tell me don't believe the crap and 'misinformation' on social media, because its all lies, then you should probably turn off the tele..because guess what, that shit lies to you too! :lol:

I think it's because of social media that it has never been more apparent in my lifetime that theres a clear division of sides, because I feel it allows people to have alternative views and engage together.

So for someone who do engage online and see what the rest of the worlds thinking, they might think there's an alarming number of people who think just like me, so maybe people are waking up to the bullshit but the MSM aren't showing none of it, just like the anti lockdown protests happening across the country. These people will are likely to think the majority of the people are awake or are waking up. I certainly feel like people are in this life time.

I opened my eyes to most of this crap when I was growing up, and Reggae, especially Bob Marley tunes taught me a lot about freedom and rights, and also big time discrimination. So once you know they don't give two hoots about you, you begin to question stuff.

"The class system allow the rich to murder the poor" heard that quote today, and that makes sense too when you look at it high level. Restricting access to healthy and nutritious foods indirectly, everything organic expensive, maccies or alternative junk food outlet is likely to be a regular trip if you have a big family to feed, cheap, bad for you and cheerful. Just trying to make a point..I do have a vegan burger at KFC every now and then and love a dominos :stoned:

Sorry I disgressed..but just couldn't help myself. Love to you all :bye:

I get my info from multiple sources be that online or online news, usually from solid sources online though and the correct info or stats like the ONS or WHO sites amongst others. Basically i get my info from multiple sources not just 1

Don`t make me laugh Wu ffs man social media alternate views usually from clueless people that don't have an iotas clue about medicines or how shit works posting crap, that`s what your listening too. Crackers stuff man a swear. Myself i`d rather listen to Doctors or Scientists and check out facts and figures that speak for themselves.

Seems peeps always sling that these days "turn telly off" do they really think peeps are all thicko`s and take what they see on 6oclock news as writ in stone so to speak. Tbh i think all peeps that take social media as Holy Bible of everything must be proper doghnuts. Where do they think these other peeps who post these their alternate views to start with get their info, they make the shit up without any facts or figures and plenty gullible peeps fall for alot of it is my thoughts. I`d say turn of social media myself you`ll get lots more facts from 6oclock news, its not all lies you know. You take meat from it like you do with most stuff and go hunting for facts online if ya think its worth a 2nd look, well tis what i`d do myself anyhow

People have always and still have alternative views without need for believing crap spouted on social media, it`s what make us human. Have you ever tried looking for facts ?

I would say theirs a minority of people whether it`s 1, 10 or 100million with what i`d call crazy views on shit not just covid either, but yes that`s still a minority. If was ever to become a majority man i swear peeps would be dying before 50 years old or for a cut on their finger. Modern medicine has a big part to play for man kind today and in future for that reason. Its why peeps are living longer did you know ? Cus of modern medicine. Just do an age comparison pre-modern meds 100+ years or so ago and look at life expectancy rates of us all, when working man couldn`t afford to see a Doctor. Says it all really.

This movie came to mind if it was ever to become a majority of peeps believing "alternate facts" :lol: :suicide:

Big up to Bob indeed Wutang.

Cool as fuck. At end shift it`s just a chat/discussion peeps have different views on lots of things, it doesn`t mean we need to start wars/fights/whatever over it like plenty do these days mukka

I think the challenge is with the fact that things are changing very quickly.

The WHO was always regarded as having peoples health in mind, indeed their original remit was to improve world health by the supply of clean drinking water and other resources.

Very wholesome and heartfelt. This is what we all want right? A peaceful earth with humans living healthy and happy lives.

But Bill Gates now provides more money to the WHO than the UK itself, making him the second largest donor to the organisation, the USA being the largest.

When you provide that much money you get a say in their operations and there has been a shift within the WHO away from the clean water and resources to providing vaccinations. The main business Bill Gates is also mainly linked to.

Surely anyone with an ounce of intelligence would question this change in remit?

Bill Gates's polio vaccination has been linked to increasing polio cases across Africa, not reducing them according to the UN. There's other questions over his ebola vaccination work.

Regardless of what you think and which end of the scale you come from, surely questions need to be asked about this change in remit? And how money is once again becoming the main source of policy change. When this happens surely you have to question the motives of the person providing the money?

But seemingly not. People just regard the WHO as a reliable source of information, because they always have had our best interests at heart. Just like the views of the news channels, the government etc.

In the case of the WHO, the policy change and Bill Gates's influence over them is blatant, overt and stands out a mile to those that care to research.

But, to many, not applying any form of critical thinking to any of this is a defense mechanism to protect the ego which never wants to be proven wrong. That's how you become a sheep.
