Whenever i feel a glimmer of hope for humanity i check in here to quell that nonsense.
i love how this post is ambiguous enough it's meaning could land on either side of the discussion. well played
There is no hope for the vaccinated.

My first publication was actually p chem.
Organic chemistry came later.
If I thought you were worth it, I'd probably be pretty forthcoming.
But I know what you are here for.

did you know that they teach biology in high school in USA? i had a year of biology with lab work when i was in 10th grade.
don't feel embarrassed by not understanding the science terms - i get the same reaction from people i try to talk to in my daily life.
since researching the biology of my spouse's diagnosed atherosclerosis in feb 2019, i have discovered for myself the irreducible complexity of biology. it is mesmerizing and beautiful. i can read and understand what i read. i love to study systems - particularly a system as deep as biology.
instead of arguing about the flashlights used to case the shadows on the cave wall, it is time to climb out of the cave into the light.
learning biology is the only way out of the dystopian hellhole the slavers want us to live in.
resistance is futile - i am being proactive.

The problems with “doing your own research”
1. That’s not what research is.
Definitions matter. When scientists use the word “research,” they mean a systematic process of investigation. Evidence is collected and evaluated in an unbiased, objective manner, and those methods have to be available to other scientists for replication.
Conversely, when someone says they’re “doing their own research,” they mean using a search engine to find information that confirms what they already think is true. We are all prone to confirmation bias, and the effect is especially powerful when we want (or don’t want) to accept a conclusion.
Science as a process is an attempt to understand reality, and recognizes how biased and flawed the human brain is. That’s why real research is about trying to prove yourself wrong, not right.
2. You’re not as smart as you think you are.
Unless you’re an expert in the field you’re “researching,” you’re almost certainly not able to fully understand the nuance and complexity of the topic. Experts have advanced degrees, published research, and years of experience in their sub-field. They know the body of evidence and the methodologies the researchers use. And importantly, they are aware of what they don’t know.
Can experts be wrong? Sure. But they’re MUCH less likely to be wrong than a non-expert.
Thinking one can “do their research” on scientific topics, such as climate change or mRNA vaccines, is to fool oneself. It’s an exercise in the Dunning-Kruger effect: you’ll be overconfident but wrong.
Yes, information is widely available. But it doesn’t mean you have the background knowledge to understand it. So know your limits
The process of science is messy
Science is messy. For example, climate change research involves experts from a variety of fields (e.g. earth sciences, life sciences, physical sciences) and settings (e.g. academia/government/industry), from nearly every country on earth, each looking at the issue using different methods. Their findings have to pass peer review, where other experts evaluate their work before it can be published.
The literature is also messy, as different studies provide different types and qualities of evidence. Different studies also might reach slightly different conclusions, especially if they use different methodologies. Findings that are replicated have stronger validity. And when the various lines of research converge on a conclusion, we can be more confident that the conclusion is trustworthy.
And then there’s the news, which tends to report on new, unique, or sensational findings, generally without the detail and nuance in the literature.
All of this messiness can leave the public thinking that scientists “don’t know anything” and are “always changing their minds.” Or that you can believe whatever you want, as there’s “science” or a “study” or even an “expert” that supports what they want to be true.
Waiting for proof
Most people seem to understand that science is trustworthy. After all, we can thank science and resulting technology for our modern quality of life. Unfortunately, there’s much the public doesn’t understand about science, including the enduring myth that science proves.
Scientific explanations are never proven. Instead, science is a process of reducing uncertainty. Scientists set out to disprove their explanations, and when they can’t, they accept them. Other scientists try to prove them wrong, too. (And scientists LOVE to disagree. Anyone who thinks scientists are able to conspire has never had a conversation with one.) The best way for a scientist to make a name for themselves is to discover something unknown or disprove a longstanding conclusion.
The process of systematic disconfirmation is designed to root out confirmation bias. Those insisting on “scientific proof” before accepting well-established science are either misled or willfully using a fundamental characteristic of science to avoid accepting the science.
Why we should trust science and the experts
Back to “researching.” The danger is that uninformed or dishonest people can cherry pick individual studies, or even an expert, to support a particular conclusion or to make it look like the science is more uncertain than it is…especially if they don’t want to accept it. And if we’re being real, many who “do their own research” are doing so to deny scientific knowledge. But that’s the perfect storm for being misled, and for many scientific issues the price of being wrong is just too high.
Ultimately knowledge is a community effort. We don’t think alone…. and that’s what makes humans a successful species. The problem is that we fail to recognize where our knowledge ends and the community’s begins. That’s why for anyone who isn’t an expert in a particular field, our best chance at knowledge is to trust what the majority of experts in that area say is true. No “research” involved.
Thinking is Power: The problem with “doing your own research”
This is a re-post from the Thinking is Power website maintained by Melanie Trecek-King where she regularly writes about many aspects of critical thinking in an effort to provide accessible and engaging critical thinking information to the general public.skepticalscience.com
this is embarrassing ... you should have more faith in yourself.
the experts are treating sick people - the standard of care is founded on treating sick people. if pharmaceuticals actually did anything they would be pulled from the market.
i think less than 5% of people have the self discipline and knowledge to be healthy.
Contaminated Vaccines, Iatrogenic Deaths, Future Worries Among the Vaccinated
By Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH
The rush to produce mRNA vaccines after 2020 clinical trials that were only three months in duration has been a biotechnology debacle. Despite billions of government dollars pour into the vaccine manufacturers and their biodefense subcontractors, the quality of the COVID-19 vaccine products particularly Pfizer and Moderna has been horrific. The religious belief in a vaccine like a talisman has most still feeling safe and secure despite record injuries, disabilities, and death all around.
From marked batch to batch variability in adverse events, to visible debris at the bottom of the vials, and molecular labs detecting contamination with putative proto-oncogene activator SV-40 (promoter, enhancer, origin of insertion), the mRNA industry is off to a disastrous start. No regulatory agency in any country has open the vials after fill-and-finish to inspect them for quality, quantity, and purity. Please enjoy this quick-hitting interview with Liz Wheeler who is back from her maternity leave.

what??? lol
Don't worry.

An organic chemist. but im not worth it
I studied lots of science.
In my later days of school my field of study included lots of organic, but ultimately my title was biochemist.
Neuropharmacology was my focus.

Microbio was fascinating but ultimately life science led to being curious about ourselves.
He graduated an engineer but he's our resident expert on the COVID 19 transfection.
High school biology you say!
The entire thread is futile, yet here we are.
OMFG
