Why does Yoshida keep using Covid-19 as an excuse for delays or setbacks?

[Mirhd]

Of course, people will chose not to believe it, and pretend they are smarter then everyone else and act like they 'know' the 'real reason'

Well, yeah. It gives these people an endorphin rush to think they're part of some exclusive club the rest of us "sheeple" aren't. Wouldn't surprise me if these same anti-vaxxers also think lizard people secretly run everything (people legit think this)... there's often a lot of overlap with flat earth nonsense as well, I've found.

At the very least, this thread has provided a real life demonstration of why covid is still very much a thing, and continues to have the impact that it does.

Pretty much!

Reading OP's post made me eyeroll so hard my eyeballs nearly fell out of their sockets.

Of course, i fully expect those of you whom trusted big pharma and the government to keep eating your words. Because you have this entire time. Every day the "conspiracy theorists" are redeemed.

The problem with conspiracy theories is only 99.9% of them are utter nonsense, and it's that 0.1% that we should act on, but we can't see it for all the BS flying around. You are part of the problem, not the solution. Your last claim is what really stands out to me here, it doesn't matter how many times you are proven wrong, you just keep going and then when you do finally, after decades, strike it lucky on one single point, go on to claim you were right all along and lump in all the other nonsense you believe.

A note on big pharma and the Government. A very close family member of mine is a senior medical researcher, her job is to create and manage studies into all aspects of the medical field. Since the pandemic hit it's obviously been all hands on deck with covid. To date she has conducted many studies, including things like, How effective is the lockdown, how effective is the vaccine, how contagious is covid, what is the chemical composition of covid and how exactly is it mutating, how often is it mutating etc...
Big pharma and the Government then take the results of those studies and decide on what to tell the public and how it shapes policy. Many times she has told me what the Government will announce the next day and she has been 100% accurate.

There are very few people on earth more informed about covid than her. Did she have the vaccine? yes, yes she did.

You stick to Rogan though bud, he seems legit.

AN EDIT ABOUT ROGAN:
I'm not an expert in covid or vaccines, that's why I listen to those that are, I do know my boxing though. I used to compete in it, I've watched it all my life and most of my friend are, or were boxers. Rogan, despite being a mixed martial artist know less that jack shit about boxing and he is considered an utter moron in boxing circles, that doesn't stop him jabbering on about it like he's Manny Steward. All he ever does is agree with whatever the last person told him.

Well, yeah. It gives these people an endorphin rush to think they're part of some exclusive club the rest of us "sheeple" aren't. Wouldn't surprise me if these same anti-vaxxers also think lizard people secretly run everything (people legit think this)... there's often a lot of overlap with flat earth nonsense as well, I've found.

I've seen more than a few debates between psychologists where they talk about conspiracy theorists and it seems some personality types are much more likely to believe in them, and if they believe in one there is a massive chance they believe in many if not most of the popular ones. Narcissism in particular seems to be very prevalent in conspiracy circles.

Oh for the love of...

[TheMightyMollusk]

Arguing with an antivaxxer is like playing chess with a pigeon. No matter how well you do, they're just gonna spew nonsense noise, crap all over the board, and strut around like they won. The only winning move is to not play at all.

[Jandor]

Get your shots people

& make sure to exercise.

Being overweight is one of the most consistent risk factors with covid.

[Snorky]

Nothing like getting a dose of misinformation on a gaming forum.

[Saier]

It's also increases your risk of a myriad of other medical conditions. I don't think you're "get fit or die from covid" is developed enough to start spouting off

[ApolloGenX]

I got fully vaxxed and still got Delta.... it was a doozy ( I'm 40, and in good shape 6 foot, 180Lbs).... but thankfully, I didn't need to go to the hospital! I'm glad I am vaxxed and we still have workers that are getting Covid.... so if it impacts our work, I can easily see it impacting others.
