I mean... when you don't have food or medical supplies, and live under perpetual oppression like the civilians in Palestine, it is much easier to understand why certain choices are made.
"Yes, we give them no chance to have any economic freedom, and sure people will starve because of it. But that doesn't give them the right to fight back!"
From your source:
I am really happy they thought to bring up this topic because I posted a similar question earlier this week. A lot of what this article talks about seems to align with my hunches.
Exactly, I couldn't have said it better myself.
Ugh this sucks. I have a personal pet peeve when someone claims anti-semitism when criticism is suggested against Israel. Being Jewish does not make one immune to feedback. Be better.
I see what you mean, we could call it something else for the sake of discussion. But does that make you any less likely to get it? The Flu Shot is a good comparison since it is on a similar cadence.
That is a lot of words I am not going to read. Nothing personal, I am just not interested in your misguided justification. I have been dealing with this argument since COVID started and I don't have the patience for it anymore.
No, you did not interpret their data properly.
Like dying of the disease that has already killed millions in the last few years. You are reaching and unless you want to continue this discussion in good faith, ill find someone else to talk to.
That is a 0.125% chance of a complication. That means that 99.875% of participants did not have said complications. All medical procedures carry some sort of non-zero percent risk factor. How do you look at a number like 99.875% and say "Not good enough"?
I think you are making this up as you go because the data doesn't support your claim. For myself, if I knew a medical intervention could give me better chances of not being hospitalized/dying from the disease, I would take it. I have had the vaccine and boosters. I still got COVID recently but...
We have already discussed why this data appears this way. We have also already discussed why the conclusion is a flawed understanding of how the data works. I am not going to reiterate what has already been said.
We have already gone over that data in previous comments. I don't have anything else to offer to that discussion unless you have a different dataset you are referring to.
