This isnt 100% accurate. I have a theory that only 17 people live in India and that the majority of the country is actually inhabited by unicorns and minotaurs. I'm just as credible as any official source because you can't prove that they're 100% correct.

Unfortunately he got attacked by a Unicorn tonight and did not make it. Hospital ruled it as a covid death though. TYPICAL.

I think we've now firmly arrived in territory.

You have absolutely no credibility whatsoever. Who do you think you are

It's good to be skeptical and question things, but low-quality videos and screenshots with misleading information from somewhere in the internet are hardly helpful. There's certainly a discussion to be had about the ways that the pandemic has been handled; from the first response to the use of statistics, potentially disproportional safety measures, vaccine side effects and whatnot, but it's only useful when it is based on actual facts that can be verified and confirmed, and not on emotionally-charged, unverifiable claims and internet memes.

Literally a 5 second Google search for fact-checking. "A survey by dpa at several Israeli hospitals revealed that the video was recorded at the Shamir Medical Center in Be'er Ya'akov. "This is part of a promotional video being filmed at Shamir Medical Center these days," a hospital spokesperson confirmed to dpa. “What you see in the video is our new emergency parking lot,” he explains. "This is a demonstration of how the parking garage can be converted into a hospital ward." The people featured in the video are not actual patients. "The doctors are really doctors and some other hospital staff. The 'patients' are boys and girls of 18 years, who also work in the hospital," said the spokesman. The final promotional video is not online yet. The recordings have only just been completed. The images are not proof that the corona pandemic was staged or intended to terrify people. This is only about turning promotional material for a new innovation of the hospital in Be'er Ya'akov." The promotional video has been since released.

Got in from work tonight and this had been delivered. That I forgot about. I ordered whilst pissed on my 30th at my second home (private snooker room). As to why I ordered it and how it came up in conversation when I thought it would be funny is a whole other story. What a cunt I truly am. Will someone just ban me now

Oh Unique.

what i do have is common sense. i also know when people like to government are pissing down my back and telling me its raining.

Love how this numpty also thinks people just walk over the India/Pakistan border as if there's no checks or border control and they just spread COVID round .

Just incase they were in hospital for days or weeks on end, and then suddenly a car crashed in to the 5th floor of the hospital in to the ward they were in. So they have to check mate.

I think more governments have cooked the books the other way actually, underreporting the figures.

The dog version is good too!

'Alexa, define MASSIVE BALLS OF STEEL'

Social contact with other children is more important for children than social contact to other adults is for adults. That's because the latter are supposed to have developed their social skills. By the way, if you want to compare children interacting at schools to adults don't take your spare time but your working hours, when you mix with others as school is the kid's equivalent to a job. Only difference is they don't get paid for it.

PROVE HE'S WRONG THOUGH. ALL YOU NEED TO DO.

@UNIQUE

Because several people have spent multiple pages of this thread debunking and correcting things you've said that just flat out aren't true, or are based in either fallacy or on unrealistic expectation, and you don't even stop to hold your hands up on the bits that are demonstrably wrong before deflecting onto something else. After a while, there's no point in trying to "disprove" or "argue against" anything you say because there's absolutely zero prospect of a consensus that isn't based entirely on your predetermined opinion in your black and white world. As long as you pursue this style of debate, it's always going to end in people responding with sarcasm, insults, eye-rolling or people just ignoring you. Why should any of us bother drilling into the finer points of public transport policy at the start of the pandemic and the complex balances between logistics, risk and convenience that we all had to try and strike when you can't even climb down from your claim that everyone gets a post-mortem which has been proven comprehensively untrue? You can tell yourself that everyone else is being 'condescending' or that they're 'brainwashed' for continuing not to agree with you but if you refuse to acknowledge a grey area and refuse to acknowledge that there are parts of your argument that are flimsy or misinformed, then it's you who thinks your opinions are infallible and that you know better than everyone else, and it's you who's being close-minded, and effectively brain-washed by what you've already decided is true and false. I do have a genuine interest in why people end up believing the sorts of things you've posted in this thread, and why the distrust in 'official' sources of information runs so deep that you simply won't be budged from your chosen position by any mass of conflicting information, which is why I initially try to engage in good faith. I don't want it to become personal, so I'll try not to get too bogged down in the name calling and piss taking, but you'd do yourself a big favour if you just accepted it when someone points out to you that your source is dodgy or the claims made in it were disproved by fact checks (which happens to everyone) or you stopped to tell people you can see where they're coming from now and then and accepted at least a few elements of what they were saying.

Smart people can read between the lines. And we can also see the shit you post on that absolute hellhole of a forum.

Yes, it is. But I'm done debating (I use that term loosely) with a racist idiot who posts drivel on the internet without fact nor substance so crack on with your shite, I ain't bothering.

Fucking hell.

Can't we just ignore this now? Several of us have engaged in this in good faith, eventually realised that there's no debating with someone who has adopted a certain position and won't be swayed from it by any evidence or counter-point no matter what, we've resorted to having a laugh about it, now let's all move on instead of perpetuating the misery, no?

Again.

I’ve pretty much proved you wrong on every single post you’ve made. But as long as your opinion thinks I didn’t, I suppose you’ll always be right

your other internet home is better for that shit.

Lol do you know anything about Pakistan or Indian diplomatic relations? I think it's pretty safe to guess the answer to that one is "no"

Yep, knew there was a reason he brought up those 2 specific countries...

And finally, the mask slips.......

I'm busy with a minotaur right now. BRB.

How does he not realize that though? I mean the spelling should be the first sign. If everyone around me mastered their native language, and I have not. It might be time for me to realize that I'm not the brightest bulb in the box. Okay, there are smart people who maybe have a hard time spelling or writing. But if you take all the other "signs" into consideration. Holy shit it's time to pack your things, sit the fuck back and just listen to people who might be a little (in this case a lot) smarter than you.

No they don't. Stop lying. It’s fucking tedious.

Oh yes, that's it. "A lot of Covid deaths were not Covid deaths" - Boris Johnson, April 24th 2021.

are you telling me you have not seen the government say a lot of covid deaths were not covid deaths.

Again, the UK government held a press conference several weeks ago about the AstraZeneca blood clots. The scientists were completely transparent about the low risk that Covid-19 posed to younger people and admitted that, actually, although the vaccine still posed a lesser threat to under 30s than the virus itself, there wasn't that much in it, and as a result they recommended that under 30s (and more recently under 40s too) take one of the other vaccines instead. This was official government communication broadcast live at the time on BBC, Sky News and reported on later by literally every major news outlet in the country. If anything, some of the sensationalist headlines from the "mainstream media" over-played the danger of complications from the vaccine, rather than trying to "cover it up". If you place greater stock in your social media feeds and what your Auntie Bev heard from a friend of a friend of a friend, then that's up to you, but it's not going to wash with most other people.

I don't know about other countries but the UK reporting changed many months ago to "deaths within 28 days of a positive Covid 19 test". This isn't lying, it's just poor messaging from the government and the media failing to make it clear that the primary cause of death isn't guaranteed to be Covid 19. At the height of each serious wave of the virus, we can be sure that even though a few of those deaths might not have primarily been caused by Covid, the majority were. I have two questions for people who entertain conspiracy about Covid 19 being exaggerated: 1) If the spikes in deaths weren't almost entirely caused by Covid, then what series of events caused an unrelated spike in deaths in almost every country in the world at once during those times. 2) These governments and media sources that are lying about/exaggerating Covid - what is their motivation?

The mathematics on show here is outstanding, it really is.

well because i know its real but i also know the government are lying about it.

Yet here you are sharing videos under a false pretence. Why else would post that here unless you thought it was real and it’s all a big coverup?

if that vid never made it on the net you can bet your ass it would have made it onto a news channel. now im not one of them nut bags that think covid is not real. i know its real because i had it and i know people that have died with it but i just wonder why if it is as bad as they say why do governments cook the books to make it look worst than it is. i dont want to know how many people died with covid i want to know how many people died of covid. when a government lies to make something look worst then you need to worry.

Oh this is brilliant.

Red Cliff (2008/2009) Absolutely brilliant. Watched the original two-part version (instead of the shorter cut), almost 5 hours in total. Thoroughly enjoyed it; thought the pacing was spot on, was not bored for even a second of it. Fun action scenes choreography (even if some of the fighters are made to look like some Wuxia superheroes at times), great soundtrack, decent character development, some great acting, and visually stunning too. Love the epic scale of it; John Woo did a pretty good job portraying The Three Kingdoms period. 8.5/10

It's hard living on the other side of the world with only one person for support, no real friends, no family, I feel so alone a lot of the time and it's really hard. Like an unwelcome house guest that doesn't even really want to be there.

That beaver statue in the back is amazed as well look at the size of its eyes lol.

When "young" De Niro throws his gun in the lake like he's 120 years old it gets me every time
