The General Covid19 Thread

jonattonyeah social media isn’t far off brainwashing for some people though. i generally agree that willful ignorance is a massive problem, but that’s a failing of society as much as it is of the individual. education is woefully inadequate.*

*playing devil’s advocate here, i mostly agree with you.

jonattonyeah

Yeah, fair. I’ve never used any social media (other than message boards like this) so I’m very ignorant to its power and influence. I do find it confusing how many believe Dr. Facebook over Dr. Fauci. I mean, how did we get here? The generation that told us not to believe everything we see on the internet is now going to YouTube to confirm their own preconceived notions. I hope this is just some growing pains as we adjust to being far too interconnected but I’m not too hopeful.

Mad_Cyril Talking of vital supply chain logistics, did you get your wiz whit zack?

Last night mate!

jonattonyeah have you watched the social dilemma? that’ll explain it better than i can here. my degree is in psychology, so although i don’t use it much beyond teaching people about their dogs, i have a little insight into how social media exploits flaws in the way we think and process information. i don’t see how we can adapt to the rate at which technology progresses; i think merging the human brain with tech is probably the way forward, for better or worse.

jonattonyeah

303abuser

I have, yeah. It’s really good. I hope we realize that being in very loose contact with thousands of people is neither necessary nor healthy.

303abuser

jonattonyeah it should be mandatory watching for elementary and junior high kids and their parents. it’s definitely not healthy and we now have the data to prove it.

hugopal

Dubman which exact points raised by this upside-down headed fella do you disagree with, and why?

alistair

Sir Keir is doing that thing again where he’s heard what is likely to happen and has decided to call for it first, isn’t he? Like the boyfriend who sees the writing on the wall and is racing to say you’re dumped first

Dubman

alistair
It’s more to do with that tool Carl Vernon

jonattonyeah

Mad_Cyril

I don’t trust a man with more hair on his face than his head. But maybe I’m racist.

Dubman

jonattonyeah

Me Ma gets her first jab Thursday. Hope the old dear keep things on the DL and doesn’t attend any plague raves from now until then down the local church hall. Ive given her orders.

Hopefully things from Monday the country will get on with it and roll the damn vaccine out ASAP to all

Jules72

Israel is going to show how quickly we can open up with 11% of their population already vaccinated… how quickly are hospital admissions and case numbers going to drop? Hold tight for feedback etc…

alistair

Jules72 it’s amazing what you can do in a police state run by Netenyahu

Homegrove

And also when you only vaccinate the part of your population you deem human.

Jules72

Homegrove doubt they’d do that? ((Unless ive missed something) If they don’t vaccinate enough of the population to achieve herd immunity the programme isnt going to work

Homegrove

Jules72 well it’s not like palestinians from Gaza get to go to brunch in Tel Aviv.

Smallman1

Quite like the sound of brunch in Tel Aviv.

Will book a flight as soon as I can.
