Are you one of the unlucky ones??

Scientism - Wikipedia

While the term was defined originally to mean "methods and attitudes typical of or attributed to natural scientists", some scholars have also adopted it as a pejorative term with the meaning "an exaggerated trust in the efficacy of the methods of natural science applied to all areas of investigation (as in philosophy, the social sciences, and the humanities)".



To the Truth community which has massively increased over the last 3 years the word scientism is science that is BS.

Fabricated 'evidence' to push their perspective on the masses.

You have a whole bunch of people who think vast parts of the U.S are going to be under water by sea level rise. And this is by the end of this century

THE DEATH OF EXPERTISE - Tom Nichols
LET ME GOOGLE THAT FOR YOU

As Bruni pointed out, "The anti-vaccine agitators can always find a renegade researcher or random 'study' to back them up. This is erudition in the age of cyberspace: You surf until you reach the conclusion you're after. You click your way to validation, confusing the p presence of a website with the plausibility of an argument."

This kind of Internet grazing - mistakenly called "research" by laypeople - makes interactions between experts and professionals arduous. Once again, confirmation bias is a major culprit: although many stories on the Internet are false or inaccurate, the one-in-a- billion story where Google gets it right and the experts get it wrong goes viral. In a tragic case in 2015, for example, a British teenager was misdiagnosed by doctors who told her to "stop Googling her symptoms." The patient insisted she had a rare cancer, a possibility the doctors dismissed. She was right, they were wrong, and she died.

The British teen's story made big news, and a rare mistake likely convinced a great many people to be their own doctors. Of course, people who have died because they used a computer to misdiagnose their heart disease as indigestion never make the front page. But none of that matters. These David-and-Goliath stories (a teenager against her team of doctors) feed the public's insatiable confirmation bias and fuel their cynicism in established knowledge while bolstering their false hopes that the solutions to their problems are just a few mouse clicks away.

Once upon a time, books were at least a marginal barrier to the rapid dissemination of misinformation, because books took time to produce and required some investment and judgment on the part of a publisher. "I read it in a book" meant "this probably isn't crazy, because a company spent the money to put it between two covers and publish it." This was never entirely true about books, of course; some of them are carefully fact-checked, peer reviewed, and edited, while others are just slammed between covers and rushed to bookstores.

Nonetheless, books from reputable presses go through at least a basic process of negotiation between authors, editors, reviewers, and publishers, including the book you're reading right now. Books from self-published "vanity presses," by contrast, are looked down upon by reviewers and readers alike, and with good reason. Today, however, the Internet is the equivalent of hundreds of millions of vanity presses all cranking out whatever anyone with a keyboard wants to say, no matter how stupid - or how vile. (As National Journal's Ron Fournier has said, in the age of the Internet, "every bigot is a publisher.") There's a fair amount of wisdom and information hiding out there, but there's no escaping Sturgeon's Law.

Accessing the Internet can actually make people dumber than if they had never engaged a subject at all. The very act of searching for information makes people think they've learned something, when in fact they're more likely to be immersed in yet more data they do not understand. This happens because after enough time surfing, people no longer can distinguish between things that have flashed before their eyes and things they actually know.

Seeing words on a screen is not the same as reading or understanding them. When a group of experimental psychologists at Yale investigated how people use the Internet, they found that "people who search for information on the Web emerge from the process with an inflated sense of how much they know even regarding topics that are unrelated to the ones they Googled."" This is a kind of electronic version of the Dunning-Kruger Effect, in which the least competent people surfing the web are the least likely to realize that they're not learning anything.

"Heart inflammation or myocarditis has been identified as an extremely rare side effect of the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Professor Jason Kovacic is the lead author on a COVID information document published in the journal Vascular Medicine. The document describes that an estimated 12 myocarditis cases have been reported to occur per one million people aged 12 - 39 years following the second dose of an mRNA vaccine against COVID. This is compared to an estimated 450 cases per million who tested positive for COVID-19 (males under the age of 20)."

The Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute is renowned for the quality of its scientific discoveries and is dedicated to finding cures for cardiovascular disease through world-class and cutting-edge medical research.

The team at the Institute is working urgently to discover better ways of understanding, diagnosing, treating, and preventing the onset of heart disease and is committed to ensuring its research breakthroughs are translated into advances in clinical care.

Founded in 1994, the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute was established in honour of the legendary heart transplant surgeon, Dr Victor Chang AC. In 1996, the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute was officially opened in Sydney Australia, by the late Diana, Princess of Wales.

Beginning with just two scientists, it now has over 230 scientists, doctors, and staff working together across 23 laboratories across the country. Regarded as Australia's home of heart research, the Institute has earned its place on the global stage as one of the most respected medical research facilities in the world.

Will the ABC apologise for misinformation?

Copied from the above...

"The National Intelligence Council and four other IC agencies assess that the initial human infection with SARS-CoV-2 most likely was caused by natural exposure to an infected animal that carried SARS-CoV-2 or a close progenitor, a virus that probably would be more than 99 percent similar to SARS-
CoV-2.

The Department of Energy and the Federal Bureau of Investigation assess that a laboratory-associated incident was the most likely cause of the first human infection with SARS-CoV-2, although for different reasons.

The Central Intelligence Agency and another agency remain unable to determine the precise origin of the COVID-19 pandemic, as both hypotheses rely on significant assumptions or face challenges with conflicting reporting.

Almost all IC agencies assess that SARS-CoV-2 was not genetically engineered. Most agencies assess that SARS-CoV-2 was not laboratory-adapted some are unable to make a determination. All IC agencies assess that SARS-CoV-2 was not developed as a biological weapon.

It was over two years ago and still is. However, in more recent news....

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ODNI News Release No. 16-23 June 23, 2023

"The report said that while "extensive work" had been conducted on coronaviruses at the Wuhan institute (WIV), the agencies had not found evidence of a specific incident that could have caused the outbreak. We continue to have no indication that the WIV's pre-pandemic research holdings included SARS-CoV-2 or a close progenitor, nor any direct evidence that a specific research-related incident occurred involving WIV personnel before the pandemic that could have caused the Covid pandemic," the report said."

Dr. Mike Yeadon, a former vice president at Pfizer, on how digital ID-in conjunction with CBDCs-could be used to depopulate the planet, with plausible deniability:

"When I saw the design of the vaccines, I knew they were going to injure and kill people, so these are people who don't mind bumping off a few million, a few tens of millions."

"The oncoming digital ID and the necessity to have it for all purposes, and the cashless CBDC... If there was someone who was of bad intent running that, they can make you do anything, like going to get an injection that you don't need, that might be poisonous, which is what I think they'll probably do." "A condition of continued validity, which you require to get money, or enter shops, buy an air ticket, or even get on a train, is dependent on you staying up to date... And I think most people would just keep getting the jabs and hoping it wouldn't get them this time." Full interview: rumble.com/v2v487s-dr.-michael-yeadon.html.
