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

quite surprised spuds still believe in cancer tbh

A lot of them believe that Mexico has eliminated it TBH. Not in the thrall of "big pharma", you see.

These people are so fucking vicious. You'd think that they'd have sympathy for people who've fallen victim to a deliberate campaign to make them deathly ill. But no, what they actually want is an excuse to gloat over people dying for taking a vaccine.

Quite a lot of them are big on "we will forgive" but they won't let everyone else forget it and only after their version of the Nurnberg trials.

I would not piss on you if you were on fire.

This bit of the interaction is upsetting...theres a panicked violence that bubbles underneath all this....

Why do people believe the Manchester bombing didn't happen? When there's quite a lot of evidence to suggest it did?

Because people don’t want to just believe stuff that’s easy to believe. They want to believe really, really fucking stupid stuff to show how good they are at believing.

If you can tolerate it the 60-odd page ruling goes through his lectures, books, and general reasoning towards why he thinks it was faked. As we've discussed on the Freeman thread, these people are completely down the rabbit hole. They don't see reason, they only deal in conspiracy and looking for secrets and hidden truths. When there is no hidden truth, they assume that it's just obscured rather than not existing. They believe the Manchester Bombing was a simulation because their brains simply refuse to allow any truth in, they only accept hidden truths.

A sort of warped narcissism is the closest I’ve got. There’s huge emotional gratification out of believing you’ve seen “through the game”

people will say oh but we all believe things on purely spurious, often irrational things.

but no, no these guys are different. as someone said, their arguments start on secretative, "evil behind things" premises that don't even exist. so they will construct a whole world view on an imaginary ghost, mapping out from there. see also the rankest of the covid deniars, with them there was always the "hidden enemy", based on vapour, nothingness. and they lack the intellectual humility to step back, and reflect. political extremists can get like this too but they will still try and map onto reality somewhat...

i can also quite imagine that these guys are a nightmare to live with too, iyswim.

as said many times on here, when my mate disappeared (and never returned) down the rabbit hole, i went on a deep dive into their communities and boy it is fucking wild. absoloutly perilous. there is nothing unfair at all in call them the lunatic fringe and i am the type to use such terms wisely.
