When people are way too smug about their wrong answer.

Posting guidelines.

All posts in this community have come from elsewhere, it is not original content, the poster in this community is not OP. The person who posts in this community isn’t necessarily endorsing whatever the post is talking about and they are not looking to argue with you about the content in the post.

You are welcome to discuss and debate any topic but arguments are not welcome here. I consider debate/discussions to be civil; people with different opinions participating in respectful conversations. It becomes an argument as soon as someone becomes aggressive, nasty, insulting or just plain unpleasant. Report argumentative comments, then ignore them.

There is currently no rule about how recent a post needs to be because the community is about the comeback part, not the topic.

Rules:

• Be civil and remember the human.

• No trolling, insults or name calling. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone.

• No bigotry of any kind, including homophobia, transphobia, sexism and racism.

• You are welcome to discuss and debate any topic but arguments are not welcome here. I consider debate/discussions to be civil; people with different opinions participating in respectful conversations. It becomes an argument as soon as someone becomes aggressive, nasty, insulting or just plain unpleasant. Report argumentative comments, then ignore them.

• Try not to get too political. A lot of these posts will involve politics, but this isn’t the place for political arguments.

• Participate in good faith - don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguements sake.

• Mark NSFW posts if they contain nudity.

• Satire is allowed but please start the post title with [satire] so other users can filter it out if they’d like.

Please report comments that break site or community rules to the mods. If you break the rules you’ll receive one warning before being banned from this community.

This community follows the rules of the lemmy.world instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:

  1. Be civil, remember the human.
  2. No insulting or harassing other members. That includes name calling.
  3. Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
  4. Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
  5. Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
  6. Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
  7. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
  8. No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.

It has been a couple of years since the worst of the COVID pandemic happened.

Shouldn't there be literally millions upon millions of people dropping dead from the vaccines by now if the anti-vaxx predictions were even remotely accurate??

I'd love to see some news story about this. Go back and dig up all the outlandish claims these morons said would happen and then follow that up with reality. I know no reporter would touch this story because that might involve doing some actual work and fact-checking of people. Can't have that.

Hell I took the j&j vaccine right around when it was released to the public and I'm still kicking. Doctor says I'm healthy and everything.

But I'm also a paid actor and I'm lying and I actually grew a third arm that only reacts to the soundtrack from the Scott Pilgrim movie so take this with a grain of salt.

They just make up vaccine deaths. If anyone dies for any reason, heart attack, stroke, hit by a bus, they blame the vaccine.

Getting hit by the bus is easy to explain. Clearly the heavy metals in the vaccines magnetized them.

And yet they also accused the CDC of making up the COVID death numbers. I was told by a family member many times that the COVID numbers were inflated because if someone died in a car accident, then tested positive for COVID, that was counted as a COVID death. Even if that were true, it doesn't discount that there were massive numbers of COVID deaths that weren't in a car accident...

But but but the VAERS database shows millions of people dying!

they will, be patient, it just takes [life expectancy] years for it to happen. then they'll be proven right! just you wait 70-90 years and see!

It's been proven that having a low IQ lowers your life expectancy, so they probably won't see.
