Please quote what I wrote that supports your claims that you are making here.
Here we go with the endless quote requests.
https://forum.tfes.org/index.php?topic=16365.msg219643#msg219643Please, could you stop using other members of the forum as a way to remember things you've said before? You supposedly know how to use the Web. Perhaps you could start using it instead of asking others to do it for you?
Once again, when asked you refuse to provide a quote. Where did I 'claimed to have helped to write' RFC 1855. You have never quoted me because I have never said that.
Did I, though? Or are you lying again, misrepresenting you not liking the quote as me refusing to provide it? There's an easy way to find out.
Here's the quote again for your benefit:
Yeah, and I was there helping write it long before you ever touched a keyboard.
Now, take a deep breath, focus... breathe in again... and out... Now, think very hard: how many times have I provided you with this quote by now? You're allowed to use the search function to help your process.
Now,
don't think that your past lies will become the primary subject of this thread - there's so much of the present to make fun of you for instead, your past reputation is just delicious context! I'd be
very excited to hear your next dodge on the
actual issue with your post, which you ignored.
I am stating a simple fact that people who have one conspiracy theory they follow usually have more.
This "simple fact" is currently being contested, as is the fact that you provided it as an answer to the question of "Why would FE endorse these actions?"
(It's also something that you will deny having had said in a year's time, once you've realised what a shitty take that was. You will then insist that I quote you on it monthly, while denying that you've already been quoted on it.)
After all, there is a smaller, and therefore more statistically significant, minority (Americans) that correlates more tightly with the group of people who sabotaged the vaccine. There is also a very well-known group of belief systems (Christianity) that frequently correlates with such harmful actions, but somehow you're not ready to say those two are "related" in the context of endorsement.
You are trying to mask your preferences under the guise of "it's not reprehensible if I think it's true", and it's not working. Shame on you, by the way.
There is absolutely no way that anywhere near that percentage of the world's population believe in FE.
You keep saying that. Pollsters and social scientists keep disagreeing with you. Your personal incredulity is not relevant to this discussion.
That said, if you think they're all lying to you, then you're a conspiracy theorist, and by JSS's enlightened logic, you're therefore likely to go sabotaging COVID vaccines. Careful, now, he might be a Fed for all we know.
But I'd be amazed if you can seriously claim that 5% of the people you know are FE believers.
Probably a solid 20%. 5% would be hollow earthers. These numbers were higher before most of my friendship circles were replaced with academia.
Sampling bias is a bitch. You've never met many FE'ers, and you probably never met many homeless people, or many people from Brazil. Supposedly, 18.47% of the world's population are Chinese, and yet I personally only know a handful of Chinese people. This
might mean that the population of China is a conspiracy, but it
probably doesn't. The logic of "I don't know many <x>, therefore not many <x> exist!" is deeply flawed, if intuitively tempting.
