Sir, please do not activate my autism with incorrect EverQuest analogies. We both know that no number of L9 SKs can land disease cloud on a dragon due to level caps!

But seriously, I don't think this argument really makes sense. Let's try and walk through this a bit. Every time I go to the grocery store I breathe in air that comes from the lungs of literally hundreds of other people. Every day I breathe in something like a million microorganisms. Let's say that everyone agrees to wear masks (N95s are a different story) and as a result 95% of particles are filtered out. I'm still breathing in 50,000 microorganisms every day. Multiply by 400+ days since the hysteria began and we are still at 20 million microorganisms. Why are we not all sick constantly? Is everyone over the past 100 years idiots for not wearing masks 24/7?

The only logical conclusion to me is that the probabilistic model is wrong. In other words, if you are vulnerable to disease by virtue of being old, obese, or generally unhealthy then you will eventually find a flavor of microorganism that decomposes you. On the other hand, if you are young, fit, and healthy then only possible danger of covid is drowning in a tub of sputum.

http://wiki.project1999.com/Maggot_Ridden_Flesh seems quite accurate with both negative cha and negative disease! Or there is http://wiki.project1999.com/Forsaken_Pariah_Mask . . .

Incorrect. The virus is still going strong because it's a virus and that's what they do. No human is to blame.

IIRC Raev made the error of equating weather with climate change in a thread a few years back and everyone made sure he never forgot it, myself included. I cannot for the life of me find that thread now, and it may have been another regular on the forums but that's doubtful as Raev has consistently denied that climate change is occurring.

Regardless, you still have not provided names for those scientists mentioned earlier. Also, there are no links for all of the trials you just referred to, which would allow everyone to verify that what you're saying is factual.

If the one surviving Koch brother is irrelevant, with all of his money and influence in Witchita, than you are even less relevant. By all accounts, the dead brother is also more relevant in comparison, unless you somehow happen to have more funds to work with than his estate, in which case you ought to be donating it to p99 so that everyone can experience custom content. If money is irrelevant in a capitalistic society than what is relevant? The Koch brothers are money. They essentially own a college and half of Wichita. They funded a senator's campaign, who then became governor and nearly bankrupted the state of Kansas. Even those who consider their views to be backwards would not claim that they are irrelevant. But you have, so either it is a case of trolling or willful ignorance.

To quote myself quoting smarter people from two years ago...

Spoiler Alert - Masks don't do anything

Stop trying to derail the thread with your Koch nonsense.

Jesus christ, I'm so tired of these idiot threads and the idiots that keep posting them.

It. Does. Not. Matter. That. The. Virus. Is. Smaller. Than. The. Mask.

The virus doesn't fly through the air independently, you fucking mongoloid. It travels in small water droplets that are caught by the mask at a high rate. (Yes, it doesn't catch them all). I'm pretty sure I can get a local chiropractor to sign off of something if that helps, since you like to lean on arguments from people who aren't virologists.

Dipshits like you are the reason that the virus is still going strong.

In case you were wondering, i peppered in a good amount of Ad Hominem because: fuck you
Wow what an idiotic post. You can get off your high horse now.

Even with the masks, aerosol particles smaller in diameter than the holes in the masks remain that can contain the virus. Not to mention the huge gaps on each side of the mask. Have you not seen people wearing them?

Masks don't do anything

It's been a gradual control experiment. Pavlov's dogs.

1) 2 week lock down to flatten the curve
2) Initial mask mandate
3) Vaccine(s)
4) People telling you to double mask and social distance even after having been vaccinated (No Agenda there nah)
5) Vaccine Passport
6) Vaccine ID (can't go to events currently like sports/entertainment venues
7) Eternal Mask Mandate (See Oregon) what's the point of being vaccinated?

But you're stupid if you question any of it right? Like that's supposed to hurt my ego and make me care when Governments are using a pandemic to stomp all over Constitutional Rights?

Having had covid is not a badge of honor its either a badge of wage slavery or stupidity.
