The leaps in logic and the dogmatic filtering required to get from his post to your reply are predictable, as are the insults and epithets.

Try not to fit the mold so well.

Lol, really? The fact that you ignore what is obvious tells me all I need to know.

Please repost the reply you are discussing and highlight exactly where he said there is no media bias. I'll wait.

The fact you can't read it again confirms what I suspected. So you're saying there is media bias but you shouldn't point it out? Gotcha.

Stop deflecting. Point out where he said, in plain language, that the media is unbiased.

You are reading what you want to read, not what is there. You are interpreting through the lens of bias and are unable to back up your assumptions with direct quotes or clear evidence. If you can't show me in his words where he said that, then you're constructing your argument based on your own biases.

It started in India and I dont care to argue about religion or India - but certain religious groups in the US have been calling it that, iirc, and if it becomes rampant in the US, I can only guess they will get the blame like the Chinese did. Lets just hope it doesnt happen here in the US though

You are correct, the Delta variant did start in India. What baffles me is the claim that certain religious groups in the US are the ones calling it the Delta Muslim variant. You said if it becomes rampant in the US, they will get the blame like the Chinese. And It would maybe make sense if India was a Muslim country, but it’s not. So forgive me when it sounds straight out ignorant or islamophobic. Just trying to make your comment make sense. And before anyone comes at me for making this a left vs right issue. I voted for Trump and am damn proud of it.

It's a damn shame that these disclaimers are necessary here. Thank you for emphasizing that decency and dignity are not partisan positions but matters of basic humanity.

The vaccine itself isn't 20 years old, the science behind it is. The only reason its not fully FDA approved right now is because the FDA requires 6 months worth of data. It will be fully FDA approved within 60 days most likely. The FDA follows the testing and clinical trials closely and if there were any question whatsoever that the vaccine wasn't safe, they would not have issued the emergency authorization.

Do you think they will lift the indemnification for big pharma as well?

The vaccine is the Covid 02 base updated the same way we do the flu shot every year

I think you are wise for getting it if your wife was high risk.

I just wish the propaganda and lies would stop.

It’s a booster shot. Just be honest with the public. It’s not a vaccine. You may still get it but this booster wil help just like the flu shot does.

Lol. I can't help if you're too dense to interpret his post. You're reading with your liberal bias. I'm not going to go QUOTE his post. I don't need to.

I'm not reading with a liberal bias. You are mapping your personal discriminations because you are incapable of the simple acts of copying, pasting, and highlighting the specific comment in question.

Despite what you continue to say, there are only two logical reasons you are not completing this simple task: you either do not want to face and admit to the fact that your biases discolor your perceptions of basic conversation, or you are cognitively incapable of doing so. Prove me wrong. Copy, paste, and highlight.

Go read the post I replied to dude. It's not my job to educate you. He claimed the blaming the media for what Trump said was weak and he was tired of it. My point was they reported with a bias that sleepy Joe gets away with anything. If Trump did/said a tenth of what the moron in chief says/does the media would have a collective stroke. I'm sorry you are having trouble adding 2+2 but that's on you, not me.

It doesn't say that in black and white. Still waiting on you to show the exact phrase. Not hard to do, but you're certainly avoiding doing it.

Having to use epithets and othering now. Can't construct a cogent argument? Stoop to binary insults. You're better than that. Try harder.

So, you found an old article dated 2017 that quoted one person’s controversial comments at a workers’ conference is the reason you justified calling it the Delta Muslim Variant. Makes sense.

In the meantime.

Here is the breakdown of India’s religious population

Aren't we up to the dastardly echo variant yet? I heard it causes your skin to melt if you don't have a vaccination for covid and shingles.

Or you could just call it what it is and not add someone’s religious beliefs to a virus.

I’m Jewish and know the consequences of ignorant comments like yours…
For example, there were violent attacks, mass persecutions and massacres of Jews during the Black Death. Because Jews were falsely blamed for outbreaks of the Black Death in Europe from 1348 to 1351.

Sure thing, bud; I'll break this apart sentence by sentence.

Blaming the media for EVERYTHING has become the most worn-out schtick of our lifetime. - In this sentence, the poster is expressing their tiredness and frustration with blanket prognostications that posters here and commenters elsewhere make regarding a fabricated, generalized body; in this case, using the term "media" to refer only to those informational and entertainment outlets that are purported to hold different beliefs or standards that the commenter. The sentence does not discuss or infer media biases and would pass the Reasonable Reader standard.

“The Media” didn’t make Trump’s dumb a** call it “Kung Flu.” - While I disagree with the tone of this sentence and would have worded it differently (or more likely not written it at all), this sentence focuses on the former President's choice of words and not the reporting of his usage. The sentence does not discuss or infer media biases and would pass the Reasonable Reader standard.

It’s amazing to me that the same people who profess personal accountability are the same ones who are last to hold anyone personally accountable if they are aligned in the most basic idealogical sense… and hypocrisy marches on. - The poster does not even begin to discuss media or perceived media biases in this sentence, focusing instead on partisan adherents and dogmatics. The sentence does not discuss or infer media biases and would pass the Reasonable Reader standard.

Simply put, neither any sentence nor the statement in totality would be read by a reasonable reader to have the content you are claiming it has. The combination of your initial and subsequent replies concerning the post in question form a strong body of evidence that you were not acting as a Reasonable Reader but emphatically mapping your personal biases and beliefs onto others' comments.l

This is where u lose me and others so get off your high horse. Come here and post your support for "humanity" as a Christian, while disregarding the sin.
Get on your soapbox and proclaim abortion and other immorality and get back to us.
