Discussion: UK anti-vaxx 'freedom' morons, protests and QAnon idiots

[DaveCinzano]

Sorry, where are we discussing the ongoing assault on Chris Whitty trial? It must be somewhere and it should be here as the defendant is doing a fucking good job of making the covid deniers (of which he says he is not one) and even the FotLers look relatively sane.

Don't really understand - he's already admitted it and been found guilty and got a suspended sentence

The lawyer withdrew because he was professionally embarrassed which isn't the same as just being embarrassed by the string of tosh that your client wants to say

Does this mean he’s had a conflict of interest or something?

I found myself having no choice but to read all his quotes as if I had just drank a litre of vodka whilst nursing a particularly bad head cold.

I wonder if 5 years ago someone had said to him, "In the not too distant future you'll find yourself appearing in court via video link up wearing a dressing gown, babbling nonsense, and charged with attacking the country's well respected chief medical officer in the middle of a global pandemic that will have killed over 5 million people" what he might have said. "Yeah, sounds about right" or "Shitting hell, what happens to me between now and then?"

I remember it being used in This Life as Miles’s dad was something to do with the company involved in the case

Indeed, son.

i'm not a lawyer or anything resembling one, but law society has this

can be a conflict of interests (e.g. representing two defendants), or "if a client changes instructions in such a manner that for you to continue would involve you misleading the court" which may be more likely here.

my understanding is that a lawyer can't carry on with a 'not guilty' line if client tells them that they did whatever it is.

The fuck.

The family of a woman who joined a fringe QAnon cult in Texas says she’s now drinking toxic chemicals with her peers – and brags that she serves them herself.

“She was proud to tell us that she was the one mixing it up and giving it to everybody,” an anonymous relative told the Dallas Observer.


The Observer reported earlier this month that the woman, whose family’s surname is Leek, recently left her husband and children in Delaware to join the cult in Dallas.

Now, her distressed relatives fear for her life as she and others drink from a punch bowl of chemicals including chlorine dioxide, a disinfectant often used to treat swimming pools.

“She’s always been into, you know, natural remedies, getting aluminum out of deodorant, things like that,” her son, Sean Leek, told the paper. “But that led to anti-vaxxing, and anti-vaxxing led to QAnon.”

Some people, when they go too far down those rabbit holes....well there's no returning. A one way descent into delusion and darkness.

I mean, right wingers get ridiculed for swallowing any old shit (no pun intended)... I wonder how long you could go drinking bleach for without serious health consequences or death?

Didn't some orange guy say something about bleach and covid?

Good response from doctor to someone boasting his 'natural immunity' would prevent him from getting coronavirus: "would you have unprotected sex with someone who has syphilis or gonorrhoea?" ends with "this is a stupid conversation and I'm not going to continue it."

listened to that and in my mind i had michael jordan flying through the air and then slam dunking. word and pitch perfect. how they fuck do they even know if there immune system is even strong enough? they might have an outbreak of cancer the second before saying it.

 

[Dogsauce]

. how they fuck do they even know if there immune system is even strong enough? they might have an outbreak of cancer the second before saying it.

It’s like they’re having their manliness insulted.

All the vaccine does is show their big badass immune system what it might have to deal with, it’s like a training manual. Then it can go about it’s big badass business when the thing appears. It’s a power up, not a fucking crutch for weakly weaklings.

yes, its so grimly vain and so irrational. no one can see into their body and assess their immune system (doubt even the medics can do that). no one knows if what will occur in the body (a break down in the immune system for example) from one second to the next. these folk always to me jsut scream beneath the reasonable tones "i am too damn special for this shit you sheep follow". and as the dude says, no matter how many chakras are aligned, no matter how much meditation you do, no matter how many shakes you jsut had, you woulnd't have unprotected sex with some with a STD.

 

[StoneRoad]

It's not like there's a "heaf" test for covid, is it ?

[ref to the test that used to be given pre BCG jab for TB, when I were a skinny teenager ... OH gives +ve to that, as they probably had TB as a kid & there a chunky shadow on the lower lung that shows up on the routine chest x-ray ...]

My unvaxxed unmasked Peruvian heritage-living in DC person was back in my Paltalk room this morning ...
My approach was to normalise the vaccine and the science of virses - very much one-sided - me basically giving a talk (gawd 'elp us) - enthusing about biology - when she, or the slightly annoying Norwegian who joined us posted something silly, I used it as an excuse to play earworms ... I thought "Jamming" by Bob Marley was inspired when one of them typed "jabbing" ...
I released the mic by accident and the Norwegian started playing a particularly ironic reworking of "Jolene" - no doubt someone came up with that as revenge for her donation to vaccine research ...

A relative won't be getting a booster. Their family haven't had any of the jabs. They believe they impair the immune system. I suspect someone has been getting their medical advice from facebook!

I was lost for words when I heard this.

I've heard this line from a friend who is double vaccinated about his immune system; hadn't heard other reports about till your post.

I hadn't heard it. I asked where they got their advice from and they said it is all about just look at the conspiracy sites. They actually said that - however they were some years ago impressed with homeopathy, perhaps there is no hope for them!

they got those magic specs that they can see inside their bodies, and they don't need tests because they just feel good and they've had all the shakes, so fuck you sheep. joe rogan is the absoloute optimy of this attitude, but it's okay because only has 200 million monthly listeners.

"I trust my immune system" yeah I trust mine to, I trust it to not handle highly infectious disease which is why I don't gargle ebola victims blood and take antibiotics when I've got a serious infection.
