"Oh but it is" what? You seem to think you're making some grand point and


in reality you're just all over the place to the point where I'm not even sure what you're talking about.

"Who is to say who is spreading correct information and who does not? Are you the authority?"

No I tend to defer to the authorities on things I'm not as knowledgeable about. You know in this case people like scientists, doctors, infectious disease experts. I don't put a ton of stock in anecdotal evidence (like Eric Clapton in this case) one way or the other. At this point I'm not sure you know what anecdotal means so it might be a good time to look it up before continuing the discussion. Based on the evidence we have between trials and real world data the vaccine appears to be safe for the overwhelming majority of people who take it. Again that's not me being the authority. That's the data showing us.

"I don’t know where you live but where I am the only people who were shamed were the people who did not wear a mask. And again you are speaking in absolutes (do you expect no one to challenge you?)"

I'm curious where you think I'm speaking in absolutes especially since you accuse me of the opposite below. And here again you cite your own personal anecdotal evidence as some sort of evidence that my claim is untrue. That's not how this works. I'm fine with people challenging me but as I've said you're kind of all over the place with your responses and unable to make any sort of coherent argument.

"Quick question and then I am done with you and your compliant mindset: why do you think masks are effective? Which studies did you research to come to that conclusion? Or is this one time you are ok with anecdotal evidence?"

Before I answer I'd like to address your "compliant mindset" remark. What exactly do you mean by that and why do you think it applies to me? Are you not doing the EXACT thing that I was just talking about with regards to shaming people for wearing masks? You know the thing that you just two sentences prior claimed to have never seen? Do you realize how hypocritical that makes you on top of contradicting your own point?
