Every single argument in the post is basically, "well, the whistle-blower (whom probably has an ax to grind!) didn't specify how often/many times this problem/mistake/oversite happened, so, it was probably just a one time thing and isn't actually a real problem. ok

The vaccines don't stop people from spreading it though...?

The safety is being called into question and the vaccines aren't any where even kinda close to effective as they purported to be when they were released.

I find it extremely strange to see more or less this exact post over and over again in response to people's concerns for long-term side effects. Number of people !== time. Every single person on the planet could get the vaccine and we still would have precisely 0 long-term data.

It's even more interesting that the same people making this mistake and telling everyone to "follow the science" seem completely unable to accept that not only are there very real health concerns, but that it's entirely possible if not probable that more negative effects will be found in the future.

I see this a lot and it's very strange to see super smart people such as yourself conflate <number of people> with <time>. We cannot observe long-term effects through number of people.

I find it interesting that the people that call other people irrational and say things like "follow the science" ignore things like the fact that a whole lot of people died from being intubated before the doctors (the smart people, right) figured it out. Or the "science" that said the vaccines are gonna stop covid and it's important that we all get it so we can go back to normal but then we all got it and oops it doesn't actually stop covid at all and uhhh oops it turns out we didn't even test for that...

The vaccines are not sterilizing, which means they do not stop you from catching or spreading the virus. It seems to me that any drug that is actually a prophylactic for covid would be a massive improvement.

There are a lot of gaming terms. I play a lot of fighting games like street fighter and I think the comparable term to "pusher" would be "masher", as in you're mashing the buttons.

Typically used as an insult by someone that just lost to another player that didn't play the way "they should have played".

The first mod mentioned in the article is a "student in his 20's". I'm sure the moderation is fair and unbiased /s

I don't understand this comparison. Corporations are not actually people, they're made up of people, that really do make decisions about things.
