This is Norway the country with the best traffic safety in the world (1/5th our death rate).

Covidian and Zero Covid narrative just crumbles when you look at any kind of evidence, really.
One thing I think would be more productive than bickering about masks (but much less fun!) would be talking about baseline health levels in the US. How can be improve baseline health so that we are less vulnerable next time?

The Fat Acceptance loons and screechers would never let anyone get anywhere with that, though. They’d completely kill it before it got any momentum.
Scary: 73 teams tested the same hypotheses with the same data. Some found negative results, some positive, some nada. No effect of expertise or confirmation bias.

BELIEVE SCIENCE!!!!!!!
(More seriously, results are difficult to assess with small effect sizes in a high-noise environment. As we search more deeply for less and less, anything real will be harder to find and matter little, as well as being extremely sensitive to external factors.)
Too many people’s idea of equality is, “Your group used to have dominance. Now my group should be dominant.”
This isn’t equality. I shouldn’t have to say that but apparently I do.
Chaos theory eliminates quantum uncertainty.
This is absolute bullshit and completely wrong. The recent Nobel Prize win was about how this is not the case in this universe. This is a poor attempt to sneak the absurd theory of superdeterminism back in via a weird-ass roundabout route because a lot of people are really attached to determinism. However, our universe just fundamentally does not seem to work that way.
This is garbage. It’s just dressed-up pseudoscience.
Computers are now no more useful than they were in 1995 or so — too much has been taken away for (rube-conning) “security.” Very sad decline.
