    So it was ok to insult and attack? Is that it?

    This thread originated in After Hours where you started this. This is a flippant, tongue in cheek style post.

    You replied to that post with an American video & then subsequently stated this isn't America.

    No more on this.

    So how many people died in Ireland in 2018?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 367 ✭✭Don2012


    No, people with ridiculous rubbish are.

    You came in with a video claiming it was proof . Then when challenged on the video and one loony in particular, youve ignored that and started other rubbish.

    Who are you to say it is ridiculous rubbish? People are allowed to have a different opinion, how dare you.
    Yes, did you watch that video of doctors and professionals??or is it just those professionals from the briefing you trust?

    Do you get the irony of that post? Of course people are allowed different opinions, including thinking a video is ridiculous rubbish.

    MSM will not give any doctors or professionals a platform if they go against the narrative. Many more throughout the world are speaking out but many are afraid.

    If so, why?

    If you read back over the whole thread you'll see I have been insulted and attacked for having an opinion. Is there any rational thinkers on this forum??

    Your opinion is factually incorrect based on information that is verified and publicly available for anyone to see.

    You are unable to prove your opinions.

    You are wrong, but you're too stubborn to change your mind.

    Like this. Where's the evidence that mainstream media are suppressing verified factual evidence? Nowhere.
    Where is the evidence that medical professionals are scared to go against the narrative? Nowhere.

    There are tens of thousands of medical professionals and represented by hundreds of institutions. They're all saying the same thing. So either they're right, or there's a massive, coordinated worldwide conspiracy, which is ridiculous.

    Ok, but the same can be said about various doctors and experts who believe and promote all kinds of nonsense.

    Why should we believe them?

    Well another poster and myself did ask about the one that goes on about spirits riding them in their sleep and whatnot, but you ignored it and waffled about RTE and other ramblings.

    Thats the type of professional you're getting your stuff from.

    So your getting your sources from Harris and now Donnolly, two corrupt dishonest politicans who have not Irelands best interest at heart. Holohan up until a few weeks ago, is that the same Holohan was the chief officer, who was involved in the cervical scandals! Need to look into were you get your sources from.

    What are you on about? Youre the one going on about RTE , not me. Im asking you about the loony doctor youre holding up as an expert. Are you actually going to answer the question about her? Its been asked numerous times and you just keep going on about RTE.


    How about those death figures from 2019? Use your source and tell us how many people died in Ireland in 2019 (considering you say 26000 died from flu alone)

    Hi, you haven't been answering any questions. Maybe if you actually answered them directly, you would be convincing more people.

    Insulting them, calling them sheep and throwing a strop because they are asking you questions isn't going to convince anyone. It's just going to make you look very silly.

    Again, could you clarify what you were refering to as "muzzles"?
    Could you explain why people should believe random doctors from youtube?

    Sources for what? I didnt make any claims. I gave you a link to the post outlining the loony views of the doctor you championed.

    Someone else said there were 31000 total deaths in Ireland in 2019, citing the CSO as a source. You dispute this and claim there were 26000 flu deaths alone. Its you that isnt providing sources.

    Because you can't support them with any evidence. So they are rubbish. If people follow your advice, then evidence shows they are at risk of getting sick and possibly dying.

    You can argue with the evidence, but hearsay, spoof websites and a couple of sketchy doctors won't cut it.

    I feel pretty attacked from you and you still have not answered how many people you feel are involved in this is it 100 a 1000 or 1000000 is it every goverment in the world? or just the west?

    To which you gave a non-constructive answer:

    These doctors are not from YouTube. They made a press conference giving their opinion on Covid. Many of them spoke, they were banned of Facebook and YouTube after the video went VIRAL. You seem to think I have just decided to watch a few random "videos" and that's it. I always was skeptical of this from the very beginning in March. I never trusted our political class and I would never let them make decisions for me as they are corrupt and dishonest. I always questioned the lockdown as only sick people should be quarantined. They have total control of us and our freedom. If you don't agree with me that's fine, but the fact some kind of gang is attacking me from all angles for having an opinion is disgraceful. Were is the rational thinkers on this forum?

    So what if something goes viral?

    The reason people keep asking you who "They" are is because we honestly don't know who you are referring to. In this exact instance, one of the doctors from that press conference/whatever in DC, Dr. Stella Immanuel, believes that the government is run in part by aliens and reptilians. So we honestly don't know - you could be referring to lizard people, aliens, george soros, the irish government, the deep state, the clinton foundation, bill gates, the CDC, Trump, China, etc. etc. etc.

    Your thread title is "When will they tell us the truth about Covid?" It is perfectly reasonable to expect you would be able to clarify to your audience who They are.

    I have been called a "conspiracy theorist" a "right wing"a "pr*@k"and my opinion was discarded as "rubbish" but it's ok for your gang on here to call me whatever and I won't stick up for myself?

    Muzzles is another word for masks, which I think you all already know. A mask is a sign of submission (will probably be attacked for that opinion too).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,729 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    Mod: let's just all drop any mention of muzzles from all quarters. It is really low brow stuff and I think we've covered it enough. I don't want to see the word on thread again. Elevate your diction* all.

    But the vast majority of doctors recommend using masks to help lower the transmission of the virus.
    Are all of those doctors wrong or somehow part of a vast conspiracy?

    If that's the case, why then should we trust the doctors you believe? Why can't they be wrong?

    This Covid makes no sense

    12 in hospital in the whole country here

    Well over 1000 active tested
    cases

    We were told 20% infected would need hospital treatment

    At the moment its not even 2%

    If hospital numbers stay low and we are getting hundred cases a day from now on, even the most blind will see

    Even the most blind will see what?

    The reason the hospital numbers are low is because most of the current cases are young people.

    If the numbers get bigger, and contacts are not traced on time, then more older people and people with underlying conditions will become infected.

    Then watch the hospital numbers rise.

    I think a theory about this been caused by Aliens would be more viable than the crazy idea by the OP. If anyone done it it has to be Aliens surely?

    I don't have a narrative. I try and research and question things for myself and then I'll come up with my conclusion. I do believe Covid is a virus yes, not the deadly disease ridden one they are making it out to be though, what I don't believe is the whole farce that was created around it by media and politicans.
    Very early on, they (Varadkar etc) talked about a second wave...how could they possibly know this? Then a few weeks later Varadkar stated "this is the new normal" after telling us we'd only be in lockdown until the end of March.
    Conditioning people into complying with this new normal. I stopped one day in a supermarket, and just looked around me, it was like a horror movie, people avoiding going down aisles because another person was there or meeting someone face on and jumping back and avoiding them like they have a disease. I met a friend who I haven't seen in months and they wouldn't give me a hug!! They said "no because it is against the rules".
    None of this is normal behaviour, this is no way to live! Living in fear and hysteria created by the media. Life is for living not be under control and order by the government.

    The second wave came from epedemiologist models. Not Leo Varadker.
    The "New Normal" talk started end of June I believe.

    I think your timelines are wrong.
    Also, what does Leo Varadker have to gain from this?
    COVID is bigger than Leo Varaker ffs.

    I agree with you that this isn't normal, but i disagree that it's some government conspiracy to keep the people under control.
