Bizarrely, Chad Gracey is using a thread about this on the FansofLive facebook group to spread COVID conspiracy theories and promote some ridiculous film about it.

Why is it bizarre?

Why is it bizarre?

It was not relevant to what was being discussed.

Further, the doc in question is absurd, a hotch-potch of nonsense conspiracies about vaccine deaths, full of easily disproveable assertions and made-up or misrepresented statistics, and utterly laughable sources being passed off as medical experts. Anybody not rolling around on the floor in laughter after 5 minutes of watching would have to be a scientifically and journalistically illiterate halfwit. Which I guess is just disappointing, rather than bizarre. He is a drummer, after all.

I won't speak to the documentary you're talking about because I don't know what it is and I haven't seen it. But there is this notion out there that there shouldn't be any kinds of questions asked of the so-called "experts" who, for a good long while, kept saying that the people who got the vaccine didn't need to worry about catching it when, lo and behold, plenty of people who got the vax wound up catching it anyway. And every time people ask why these young and very healthy athletes are dropping dead, something that keeps happening more and more, they get shouted down as "insensitive" or gullible dullards. It's quick and decisive dismissiveness. But how many more Damar Hamlin's have to collapse on a national tv before the questions start to drown out the pushback?

Tagging the questioning of everything as propaganda and those who question as kooks is itself a form of propaganda. Idgaf who thinks what about those asking questions. If the government and these pharma companies were lying about what was in these vaccines and about how dire it was for people to actually take such unproven vaccines I wanna fucking know about it. Especially since a number of people's lives and/or businesses were ruined/destroyed because of lockdown and masking mandates.

Like a lot of people I got the "clotshot", fwiw, because I bought into all the propanda guilting us into this idea that if we didn't it meant we didn't give a shit about the people around us. And I wish to fucking hell I had listened to my instincts telling me not to. Hopefully my worry is unfounded. But the more questions get asked with unsatisfying answers the more rooted it becomes.
