ruination

Ah, that's understandable. My native tongue doesn't really have gendered pronouns so they/them feels right at home for me (though ironically, the people in my country are mostly conservative and bigoted and wouldn't accept nonbinary)

I keep it simple and default to they/them unless they mention some specific preference. Doesn't matter if they appear to be very traditionally masculine or feminine, or anything in between.

I agree, but I don't think the studies themselves are to blame though, they're simply reporting the facts. OP just simply misinterpreted it, knowingly or otherwise. The studies back up the point that 'vaccine injuries exist' which I don't think anyone is arguing against. The important point is rather that 'Covid is significantly worse than any vaccine injury, and our system can take care of the latter but not the former'.

Neat, thanks! Makes me even more grateful that I decided to switch.

Thanks! I'll be copypasting all of these to my notes haha

I don't think the point is that it's not a threat. I think it's more like if you set fire to a house before robbing the neighbouring house, if that makes sense. It's not that the house on fire isn't important, but more so that it was meant to distract everyone.

I only did a quick skim through the abstracts so I might miss some important details, but from what I can tell, they're all rare/one-off events. Sure, they exist, but the rate at which these vaccine injuries exist is eclipsed by that of Covid itself; there's a reason why the hospitals were overloaded by Covid and not vaccine injuries. The point is not that the vaccine is 100% safe, it's that the downsides of Covid far outweigh that of the vaccine (not to mention that, at least from what I understand, vaccine injuries are not contagious, unlike Covid, and hence you are protecting others who are immunocompromised). Tl:dr is that unlike what you see with the overloading of hospitals during covid, they have no problem handling a couple of vaccine injuries here and there.

Is GrapheneOS affected?

I should start marketing cyanide as a painkiller too, goddamn.

What a coincidence, I'm trying to learn SELinux too! Any tips?

Wayland have worked flawlessly for me, but I do understand that I have a very simple use case, so ymmv.

Fair enough, I was being too idealistic. I just wish we can have them see reason instead, but if we can't, making them shut up and not spread their idiocy would perhaps make for the next best thing.
