Morgan Peterson wiped out some posts that were definitely off-topic, but she conveniently left up the very first post that kicked this whole tangent off in the first place.
Here’s the warning from Morgan:
She basically says: "Off-topic chatter and trolling have been nuked multiple times now. Before you start typing, read the thread title. This space is strictly for sharing personal experiences—your own or those of people close to you—following vaccination. Posts along the lines of 'billions of people died from the shot but they're hiding it' don't belong here."
But right above that, there’s this other post that says: "I’ve been weighing the worst-case scenarios for both getting vaccinated and staying unvaccinated. I have a friend (31) who fought through COVID for 17 days straight; it left her mother with permanent lung damage, and this was back in December before any vaccines were even available. I think I made the right call because this woman was nearly on a ventilator, and even now, she's constantly seeing pulmonologists and allergists. The absolute worst-case scenario is pure suffering followed by death."
Is that an experience *after* vaccination? Hell no. So why is that still sitting there while my response to it got deleted? Asking for a friend....
I just got hit with a one-day ban for a violation of forum rules. The thing is, I didn't get any kind of DM or notification about why this happened, so I'm sitting here totally lost. Like, what did I even do? If anyone out there can shed some light on what went down... Thanks!
How do they actually stop people from abusing self-isolation rules? Like, say I test positive, and then just out of pure spite, I tell everyone I was hanging out with them when I totally wasn't. What’s the actual process for verifying that kind of stuff?
James Mitchell18 said:So, you guys are seriously just banning any threads about the coronavirus on the Politics board now? What is that if not straight-up censorship?
Like, let’s say I wanted to start a discussion on the "political aspect of pandemics"—what would even happen? Someone please enlighten me here...
Is there seriously anything more important happening right now in America or anywhere else on the planet than the coronavirus? If you think there is, please, enlighten me. What could possibly be bigger? 🤔
Still haven't heard a peep back regarding "Why was the thread shut down without a single word from a moderator?" I mean, you usually expect some kind of "We're locking this because..." But honestly, I don't see any justification for just cutting it off like that! 👎
If they wanted to kill the discussion, why didn't they just move it over to the Corona section under something like "Political Connotations" or whatever? 🤔
Does anyone have a clue why the "Coronavirus" thread got locked over on the politics subreddit? The mods didn't leave any kind of explanation or anything. 🤔🤔
wearypilot34 said:I had no clue the guy was dealing with health issues. But honestly, the moderation for a document like that PDF should be handled by someone who isn't personally drowning in all the drama—not someone as emotionally tied up in it as ego.
I’m totally on board with that. 👍 That suggestion wouldn't just fix things for this specific PDF; it would be a massive win for the whole community at large.
mRNA vaccines and D-dimer levels. After getting jabbed, most people see their D-dimer levels spike way past the upper limit.
So, what actually is D-dimer? Basically, if your D-dimer value is elevated—meaning it’s higher than the standard reference range—it indicates increased platelet activity and other blood clotting factors moving through your vessels. Think of D-dimer as the byproduct left behind when blood clots break down. If those concentrations are high, it tells us that clots are forming at a much higher rate than what's normally required to maintain basic hemostasis in the body.
Here’s what this doctor from Canada has to say about it:
Megan Green72 said:So what's the problem with current vaccines? The CMA only approved the ones that proved they were safe and effective by following those exact principles.
And I'm definitely not agreeing with you that those principles are somehow "greater" than the discovery of vaccines themselves.
Are you seriously suggesting that the safety profile of these shots is identical—or even close—to the vaccines kids are required to get? If that's your stance, what exactly are you basing that on?
coastalorca43 said:We shouldn't vaccinate children based solely on speculation. Speculating about unknown, long-term consequences of a coronavirus—which we already know causes nothing more than common colds—is a massive exaggeration. This isn't the first coronavirus the population has encountered. Personally, I wouldn't vaccinate anyone under 40, or even 50. According to official statistics, there have been only 165 such cases recorded as COVID-19 victims over the last year and a half.
The real kicker is, how many of those 165 actually had an underlying chronic condition? 🤔
Jesse Hughes6 said:He said it plain enough—it was all about the trip. There isn't some grander motivation or any deeper reason behind it. On top of that, he didn't bother doing any actual research beforehand, and he went straight against his wife's wishes. Poor guy, he's really digging himself a hole here.
His wife is going to be making his life a living hell for the next few years! 🤣
lonemaker14 said:What kind of risks were you actually putting your kid through before the pandemic hit?
What kind of perspective were you trying to give them?
Look, I wouldn't call myself a travel fanatic, but yeah... they went out there and saw things. And I don't just mean crossing state lines.
You still haven't actually explained why you chose to vaccinate your kid in the first place... Give us some actual, concrete reasons here. Maybe then we'll actually get where you're coming from instead of just throwing accusations around.
