How come you can't point out any or explain any of them with any depth?

How come you have to dodge and ignore questions to defend all of these conspiracy theories?

Micheal Martin has inadvertently admitted, it was all for nothing.

https://www.irishtimes.com/news/heal...lity-1.4608222

Defending the Government’s handling of the pandemic in the face of criticism from his party, he also said an average of 2,245 more people would have died if Ireland had followed the Swedish strategy which he said some people had called for.

Given the average median age of Covid death is, what, 83, and the vast, vast majority of those who have died of/ with Covid were already very seriously ill.....


....would I be correct in saying that the overwhelming majority of the 2245 people Micheal claims to have saved, have actually died anyway in the last 15 months? And that in the long term we will record higher deaths than Sweden because of cancer treatment delays?

Of the 2245 people, the stats suggest 1122 of them would be 83 years old and up.

Most of the rest weren't far off this age.

The majority of them already had very debilitating conditions and had not long left.

Have we tanked our economy, our social lives, our mental health, to save a group of people who have largely since died anyway? Cancers, sepsis, and the general accruement of ailments that come with advanced age?

Of course, there were fit, healthy 71 year olds who would have lived to 96 who died of Covid.

There have also no doubt been fit, healthy 27 year olds who would have lived to 96 who died of suicide due to the constant house arrest and the government refusing to even give a crumb of hope of a way out like Boris did.

Is the quote meant to be The Taoiseach saying it was all for nothing, because it says no such thing.


Economy has not tanked, and saving 2.5k lives is not for nothing regardless if you are so heartless to write off elderly like you do. Other hospital services continued. People were getting their cancer treatments, scans etc.

Please provide evidence of your claim that a suicides increase during the pandemic.

Also, what is the conspiracy? Saving lives?

Yet another "**** the elderly" post.

Our economy hasn't tanked. Lockdown wasn't just to prevent deaths, it was to prevent our national health systems from being overrun, despite this several countries ran critically close to that scenario.

There have also no doubt been fit, healthy 27 year olds who would have lived to 96 who died of suicide due to the constant house arrest and the government refusing to even give a crumb of hope of a way out like Boris did.

There wasn't constant house arrest. Why do people feel the need to exaggerate the situation, also what's the conspiracy?

Because saying that you're resisting house arrest sounds cool, rebellious and heroic.
Complaining about being inconvenienced is a bit sad.

It sounds like you're admitting that covid was real, and we're now debating the merits
of the strategy taken to combat the virus?

Re cancer delays,
- what makes you think that Sweden hasn't also got cancer delays (surely it wasn't just business as usual in their hospitals)?
- and if we didn't lock down what makes you think it would been business as usual in our hospitals, with no cancer delays?

If we didn't lock down why would we not be in the same place as regards cancer, etc.,
but with 2,500 more dead, and many more people with the effects of long Covid?

Cause all the vaccines are proven to be safe and drastically decrease the risk from covid. Eg I've had the az vaccine and I'd happily take any of them. I'm thirty, I'm considered high risk but overall on milder end. But I am pretty glad to be in a far safer position. I say this as a person who almost had a family member in their sixties die from COVID-19 and their life is drastically altered from it. Also I know of nurses who have lives drastically altered from long covid. So ya, you're just incredibly ignorant.

Point proven again haha post deleted all because people don't want to take the vaccine which they are entitled to decide by themselves.

Why are you shutting down posts like these?????

Who's orders are you following? Don't give me the whole talk to helpdesk malarkey. They don't respond there. So, is boards taking direct orders from the government to shut down threads or posts were people decide they don't want the vaccine? Is it to stop other people following suit?

What's the obsession about 'control'?

Imagine for a second that the virus was real, and did cause people to die, and caused hospitals to get overrun,
how would you propose we, or the government, should deal with it?

Just collectively sit on our hands and do nothing, and let nature take its course,
is that you would propose we do with a real virus?

Cause you should respect another person's boundaries during a global pandemic. I'm vaccinated and don't distance from other vaccinated people. The sheeple rhetoric is just a tad moronic, you have a conspiracy but can't give an end goal with it...

Newbie here - Hi! And just on first glance (and correct me if I am totally wrong), but I find it hilarious that in the "Non Conspiracy" threads, they are pretty hardcore on not talking "conspiracy" stuff -- Yet on this thread, people who specifically come here to discuss are still "bullied" somewhat by others? Maybe I am wrong. I hope so!

See, THAT'S the thing folks don't quite get with "conspiracy theory" stuff - that's just a label to slap on people who like to question what's going on; ask and inquire and think about different possibilities...Sure, there is a whole spectrum of beliefs and thoughts/opinions within it, but the key point (at least what I figured) was being open to discussion without judgement.
Idealistic? Mayhaps!

In any case, glad to be here - trying to connect with folk on the goings-on around the world. I am not in Ireland - though it was my dream to live there since I was 5; have family/friends there as well....We will see since traveling is all but extinct for people who don't want something forced upon them by the government. We fled the US right before the "outbreak"; knew something was going down in 2020. Hope someday to keep moving on!

No one is being bullied.
Being asked to explain your beliefs is not bullying.
Pointing out people are dodging and ignore questions is not bullying.
Pointing out where claims are unsupported or wrong is not bullying.

Claiming bullying and hiding behind that claim to explain away the deficiencies of the conspiracy theories is a bit ridiculous.

Why do you believe not a single conspiracy theorist has not been able to explain what measures will be permanent and why?
Why do you believe people keep avoiding and ignoring this question?

No, it what these things are called.
If you are suggesting that there's a giant global conspiracy behind something, for which you've no evidence or reasoning for, and you are using clues and hints found by internet detectives and conspiracy peddlers, it's a conspiracy theory.
What term would you prefer people use for this?

When the evidence points to a sustained and deliberate control of freedoms, liberties and rights to life then you can be fairly certain that's what is happening.
Why do you constantly ignore what is going on right in front of your eyes. Are they closed?
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, of course they are. But, the points above aren't just opinion, are they!
If you think, as I have read in your previous comments, that normality will return soon, then you, and others on here are in for a shock. Hopefully, even a wake up call.
The only way the freedoms you enjoyed 18 months ago will be restored, is if you are prepared to fight for them.
A wise man once said "before you make your mind up, you need to open it"
I am, if you haven't guessed, what you would label a conspiracy theorist. However, my aim is to find the truth because one thing I have learnt is, you will never get it from government or the mainstream media.
There is an article in the Daily Exposé about a Lisbon courts findings regarding Covid 19 death rates in Portugal. Open your mind and read it.

Ok. If this is the case then, perhaps you can answer the questions that have been dodged for the last 5000 posts.

What measures specifically are going to be permanent?
Why are those measures specifically going to be permanent? How do they benefit those behind the "sustained and deliberate control of freedoms, liberties and rights to life"?
Who specifically is behind "sustained and deliberate control of freedoms, liberties and rights to life"?

One reason most rational people don't buy into the conspiracy theory you believe is obvious is because you cats don't answer these questions.
Why would anyone believe you when you can't actually explain your conspiracy theory and you seem allergic to talking about it directly?

Also, why should we take a crank site like the Daily Expose seriously when it's be caught out in so many lies?
What did you do to verify that story you want others to read? How do you know it's actually true and accurately represented? How do you know it's not just misinformation by conspiracy mongers to fool gullible people?
