Starting to make a bit more sense now why Mr Evangelical, Bible literalist and Young Earth Creationist is so anti-vax.

https://www.virginiaheathromance.com/single-post/2017/03/14/Defeating-the-Speckled-Monster-1

In 1796 he paid the parents of James Phipps, and then injected the pus from a cowpox pustule into the boy. A few weeks later, he exposed the boy to smallpox and when nothing happened declared it a resounding success. He called his new treatment vaccination as the word vacca is Latin for cow and was convinced it was the only thing capable of defeating the ‘speckled monster’. However, the Royal Society did not welcome his research with open arms. They declared it too revolutionary and asked for more proof. It took until 1798, and several more experiments with cowpox including one on his own baby son, before they published his findings.

Although conclusive, the people were less enthusiastic to this new miracle prevention. There was an enormous backlash against Jenner’s vaccination accompanied by an extensive propaganda campaign. Aside from the fact the new prevention was more expensive than the old-fashioned inoculation, the widespread resistance came because of two things.

Firstly, and perhaps most importantly, vaccination was seen as ungodly. The very religious masses listened to the anti-vaccination sermons preached from pulpits the length and breadth of the British Isles. After all, in Corinthians is stated quite clearly “All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts”. Mixing the two things was grossly unacceptable according to the scriptures.

Secondly, although Jenner was able to prove vaccination did work with none of the risks caused by inoculation, he had no earthly idea why. Even the educated struggled to justify agreeing to vaccination without knowing the science behind it. Perhaps it was possible they would begin to sprout horns and udders in the future? Nobody could say for certain this wouldn't happen.

The best thing about all this anti vaccine, 5G, smart cities, ISS is fake, rich elites and name any other conspiracy is the vast majority of it originates from troll farms in Russia and China and then is picked up by gullible fools in the west.

They are literally undermining western democracy, faith in the government, institutions, the rule of law and science and fools like Enzo and Rusty are literally cheering them on. 

I think I read something like 70% of all vaccination misinformation on the internet originated from just 12 people. I'll see if I can find a link.

Literally saw a bumper sticker yesterday that said 'stop Coffs from becoming a 15 minute city'.

I wonder if Mr 'platypus's can walk 14 thousand kms' is one of those nutjobs too. Probably.

totally, the russians will be laughing their arses off. Detroyed us politics and social cohesion without shooting a shot.

i actually know someone who made a documentary on 'fake news' and was around the 2016 election and how this eatern European town was making all these sorts of website that johnsmith posts links from, and they were just conspiracy theories about hilary Clinton etc. Anyway super interesting story, but get this a company bought the rights and all ownership of the footage and shelved it when it was 90% done. it was big budget production too. A massive shame, was like two years of work.

I watched a bloke online breakdown the tweets and posts on FB and Insta in the immediate minutes and hours after the Bondi stabbing. 95% originated overseas and they quickly got to work  blaming everyone from a Jewish bloke named Ben Cohen, to a recent immigrant, to a released detainee, to an orthodox Cristian, to a mad Moslem terrorist. Basically a grab bag of choose you own prejudice and run with that to suit your narrative.

Bad luck for one poor bastard, the actual Ben Cohen, who was outed with a photo and everything because fuckheads like aussiecossack or whatever his name is tweeted it out to everyone.

What a shitshow.

Then you've got  Musk refusing to take down video of a priest getting stabbed which just winds up and inflames more and more idiots that want to take revenge. Not sure how hospitalising 2 policemen and wrecking 6 cars proves anything but you know 'fRErDoM Of tHe PrEsSs ' and all that.

Seems Dutton may well finally be on board with some sort of regulation around X and FB and the rest of them. Not before time.

what I love about that jerk musk is he is says he's free speech etc with all this hate content, but routinely takes stuff down and blocks accounts on behalf of the saudis, turkey and russia.

So, tsf, what you're saying is, when a radical totalitarian political group uses a bombardment of court cases to intimidate and overwhelm its opponents with litigation - and if the courts are adjudicated by biased judges - then the common people will believe that the radical totalitarian political group is the one with the moral high ground.

Here is the video that the litigation relates to.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh5j7s1H7ek

For say this was a group of people committing vote-counting fraud, the Democrats/Left Wing have brought a massive amount of court cases agains conservatives.

Hence, you can add this to your list of naivetes. You and muz believe that no one ever brings court cases against people, even when there is a weak case, simply to bury the other side in court costs.

When you have a Mainstream Media that tells the population that there was no election fraud, when the Democrats prosecute anyone who tries to show that there was election fraud, and courts jail anyone who tried to show there was election fraud ... but with your own eyes, you view this video to see how the fraud was committed ... you follow the crowd, rather than the evidence.

yes, because it's standard practice for a business to be bankrupt right at the start of a bunch of trials they are definitely going to win.

Not only have the courts seen enough evidence to let these cases move forward, but the owners obviously know they are toast with their lies, just like fox who admitted they made it all up. 

Chikens coming home to roost. It's delicious.

tsf, I've come to understand your type of thinking. There is not one shred of consideration that the Courts and Media are Left-Democrat biased.

In the Courts, these cases are always shunted to be handled by Democrat-biased judges.

As you know, the Media in the United States, as well as Australia, are biased-Left.

You fully know that, but you can't care a stuff because the results go towards your team, so you don't care about the unfairness.

You live in the world where you realise there is unfairness in decision-making at official levels, but you don't care because your side wins.

So 'biased-left' that multiple states have banned abortion and made it a criminal offence. So 'biased-left' that unregulated gun ownership in multiple states goes unchecked.

So 'biased-left' that the supreme court in America is stacked in the conservatives favour.

You really don't have a fucking clue.
