    Short answer to your last: because I’ve familiarized myself, with the tenets of virology, in the way that flat-earth clingers have not ?

    Also, there is an obvious reason why my perspective is NOT attractive to the majority: sunk costs.

    Says the guy who posts hundred year old science papers as the cutting edge of science.

    It appears that you’ve again assumed the very thing we are trying to determine. You say that your views on viruses deserve consideration because you’ve well familiarized yourself with virology, but who says you’ve well familiarized yourself with virology? It seems to be you. This is my whole point. One can’t be a witness to their own genius.

    If I ever posted a hundred year old paper it was probably to illustrate how real scientists were onto the germ hypothesis early.

    But I am curious. How could you have missed the dozens of quite recent papers I’ve linked ?

    And the near 200 year old gaslighting flat earth myth generated from the pen of Washington Irving yet persists.

    I don’t know if you have a personal issue with me or not, but so as to keep you moving forward, why not pretend that I don’t exist ? Maybe investigate a viewpoint from someone else ? Like this one …

    I absolutely do not have a problem with you, as I tried to explain above. I was actually viewing myself as one of the few that still wished to honestly engage with you. However, if you would like me to ignore you from now on, I will respect that. Good luck, dugger. :emoji_left_facing_fist:

    I’m not asking you to ignore me. I just don’t understand what my perceived countenance has to do with anything.

    WRONG - 80% of the GOP falls into the entire "witness to their own genius category".

    Just like their entire anti vaccine lunacy. The same mockinbirds parroting that nonsense seem to have been fine
    with vaccines pre Trump, using an entire litany of medicines and procedures prior to Covid.

    But should a sitting President, or a member of the NIH, suggest something contrary to their "Demi-Gods"
    recommendations - as in inject oneself with Bleach -, well now, "God Don" knows best dosen't he. LMAO

    It will be a cold day in hell when I let GOP politicians or their AM radio talking heads dictate my personal health care needs.

    Those that listened to that idiot, got sick, got dead, or attended unnecessary funerals.

    "Lets go see Donny Boy in one of his GOP fund raisers" in the middle of a pandemic -
    But dont wear a mask or protect yourself in any way in a crowded venue with a raging respiratory pandemic ongoing,
    it may upset Donnys campaign managers.

    LOL at the desperate attempt, on the part of libbies, to separate Trump from all the causes they’ve held dear ranging from lockdowns to masks to vaccine to Slava Ukraine!

    LOL at the notion of linking the no-virus camp to the GOP. Rand Paul is the arch enemy of Covidians. Yet here he is blathering month after month about how China engineered and released a virus deadlier than anything a pangolin might have pooped out.

    Which is why that snide drive-by shooter is one of the few I have on "ignore". I pity little Dugger.

    Bird flu virus in cow's milk must have something to do with cowbirds.

    BTW if you're not familiar with cowbirds, the little deadbeats lay their eggs in other birds' nests when the other birds are away from the nests momentarily. How sorry can you get?

    Cowbirds are progressives?
