Now will someone please gather up all the prophets that were wrong (again - have they ever been right?) and humiliate them? 
Except they’ll just move the goal posts, as always.
Note that every single one of these kinds of posts are always “there will be” sorts of things, and they’re never followed up on. Anything reading as prophecy these days…here, lemme predict: will not have me as a reader. </Karnak>

No 5g service in our town yet, so I figure we're safe.

Also when I read Richard's post I thought it said Manbird Virus. Now that's something to worry about.

It is a little about him. If you post 27 garbage links and laugh/humblebrag about being a contrarian asshole, then no, I'm not going to take your 28th link seriously.

Again, this is an ego thing on your part. We're not your monkey, expected to sit through anything you post. I don't listen to all the music clips posted, I don't read through all the forums, etc. Grownups can choose, without guilt, so your attempt to shame isn't gonna stick.

There's a triaging method to understanding medical literature. No one can read everything, right? So you use a process to sort through all the unwanted magazines, news clippings, etc that come your way. That video didn't make the cut, for many many reasons. Sorry you're so worked up over it, but not every screenplay becomes a movie, not every player gets a trophy, and you just take the L and move on.

Or maybe wonder why that thing you support isn't considered accurate.

Consider: if anyone else here had posted this vid, would your reaction be in any way different?  Consider that question very carefully.  Anyone else.  edit: Would your consideration of the vid change?  Would your opinion of what you already know of the vid and its participants change?

The vid:






No. I was put off by her leading questions but those could easily be a product of post-editing. The first guy seems earnest but has taken on the role of "Voice in the wilderness," which means he's not really bouncing his thoughts off of anyone before going on TV. The second guy's credentials made me snicker and when I skipped to the end, what he was saying was predictable so I ignored him. Overall I learned a bit that I consider useful, but I discarded a lot of chaff. I never for a minute thought it was attempting to be a balanced presentation.

You rejected the video without even watching it.  You admitted this.  Your rationale was you didn't believe the participants in the video had any credibility.  Yet you hadn't watched the video to know who appeared in it or what they had to say.  You now appear to want to forget this fact, and move the goal posts.

Everyone is entitled to agree or disagree with some or all of what is presented in the vid.  But to reject it outright without even knowing what is being presented is easily the dumbest thing I've seen on this site in quite a while.

YMMV.
