An old wino said that the scientific method was just physical proof to the best of our knowledge not our belief. I expect he meant the scientific method that agreed with Einstein’s physics.
John: I wish you success in getting an invite to speak at one of the meetings. I believe your points would be well taken. Also, I am recommending that you and your readers checkout the new documentary Del Bigtree (Informed Consent Action network-ICAN). " The Inconvenient Study". The findings are indisputably factual and extremely alarming!
What ever critical thinking I possess, was wiped out during covid and replaced with gripping fear. I look back and am disappointed with myself. It certainly wasn’t a stretch to see through so much of what was pumped out 24/7, but sadly I didn’t see it. With the narrative about the mRNA shots having been worked on for decades was to instil trust. But now the obvious question is to ask, then why didn’t you bring them to market in 2010, 2015 or even 2018? Putting a bullseye on the backs of people who refused the shots blaming them for the continuation of the pandemic at a time when people’s anxiety about the virus was at its highest. I couldn’t see the dangerous risks put on those people’s lives, I see it now. The never ending narrative of safe and effective. How could that even be possible in such a short period of time? The inculcation of the term anti vaxxer which was being pumped out daily even before shots went into arms, the hit list also included credentialed doctors and scientists who were asking questions or putting out warnings. When the paper or tv claimed that scientists said this or that with no evidence cited. It was particularly anger making when they said vaccine injuries were/are rare. How do they know that when no independent, active data collection looking for signals was done. The latest piece about the mRNA shots extending lives of those who have cancer. Well, now I know about pharma funding regulatory agencies, medical journals or anything to do with their bottom line. I believed in my institutions but doing so caused me a shot injury and the words “we’re all in this together” rings hallow and was just more propaganda. The injured have been abandoned with no acknowledgement nor guidance. I have zero trust now.
Vicien: TY for sharing you story. The key thing to remember is that skepticim is the hallmark of a genuine scientist — as well as the sign of a Critical Thinker. Zero trust is a bit of an overresponse. How about Trust but verify?
Are you awake and alert 24/7? The wisdom you write and sometimes just pass along is so worth any decent person's time to read and digest ...... AND pass along.
It has become obvious that so-called "Artificial Intelligence", the latest and greatest in our world of technical progress, is likely the single most effective way to replace critical thinking with lemming mentality amongst the populations of the world if subversively used as it is being used in our schools and universities in the name of education. A.I. is really F.I. (Fake Intelligence) when promoted and used in such ways.
You are so right! Especially, EUA (corrupt way to distribute something dangerous without penalty), Scientific Method not being taught, and always the lack of critical thinking skills. PARENTS need to teach their children to be skeptical and how to determine if their skepticism is correct. But a parent who hasn't been taught that can't teach it. Everything becomes about feelings. I see it all too often in the workplace now. Too many young workers are not problem solvers. They are not curious enough to solve a problem, small as it might be. Lack of critical thinking begets mediocrity, then mediocrity becomes the norm and accepted because of "feelings". Like you wrote, the lemmings will become the majority and goodbye excellence.
The Scientific method: It takes time, learning and real experience to evaluate anything. We look back now at the start of CV with the videos showing people dropping dead in
China....then the response of Fauci wavering from one suggestion to the other, but he had patented vaxxes all lined up in a row to handle the situation. He helped the Gain-of Function Research in Wuhan by sending money via Peter Daszak at Ecohealth Alliance for the Wuhan Lab during Obama's Administration. Knowledge surfaces slowly, but it surfaces. I also caught a video of Senator Obama (pre-presidency) in Ukraine promising the lab there, U.S. money support. Of course, Obama's patron, George Soros, who bought the presidency for Obama was most likely involved in this, too.
Linda: TY for your support. I didn't intend for this to be depressing, but in some ways it is — particularly because almost no one is doing anything meaningful about the undermining of our Science curriculum in K-12 schools.

Henry: That seems to indicaste that od wino's can still have some good insights.
