Beyond Postmodernity
Re: Beyond Postmodernity
Quote the full context Sculptor. I said "essentially zero", not zero.

Re: Beyond Postmodernity
You said
Find a good English dictionary and check and compare "literally" and "... at all" with what you now find yourself trying to claim you were saying about the level of risk to children.
Your dishonesty is on display for all to see.
Re: Beyond Postmodernity
Mick and Sculptor, I doubt you actually know the statistical death rates of Covid-19 across the United States or Western Civilization. Turns out, I do. The All-Death-Mortality rate of Covid-19 was 0.5% which means 5 per 1000. Most of these 5 were above Age 50, all of them were above Age 30. Young people literally had no threat of Covid-19 aside from a regular fever or flu season. This is a problem, because there were countless, multiple threats by Western governments against young adults, teenagers, and children, topped off with Biden's threat of a "Winter of severe illness and death of the unvaccinated". This was a complete lie.
You, micky, and you, dumby, both bought into these lies, by western governmental authorites, because you two do not think for yourselves. You're not Independent minded. You cannot Doubt what you are told by your masters.
On top of these lies, they at first claimed that the Covid-19 vaccines were Preventative. They were not.
Then they claimed that Covid-19 would "stop the spread". It did not.

Re: Beyond Postmodernity
Let's reattach these points to the OP.
This absolute blind-faith you hypothetical "Free Thinkers" have in Western authorities...is a big problem. Your responses, reactions, and defenses essentially prove that this problem. You cannot critically think for yourselves, or hold oppositional arguments in your heads. Here's the difference between myself and you. I can be wrong. I can hold views that I don't believe in. I can empathize with my opposition. Neither of you, can. And that essentially means that Philosophy is not the area for you. You belong in politics, or religion. You belong in areas where ideas are rigid, no leeway for change or understanding.

Re: Beyond Postmodernity
To cover for the silliness of your (il)literacy thread you pretended to have read Berkeley's Treatise. When asked about it, you cited a mangled version of Locke's causal theory of perception. In the days since you have repeatedly doubled down on the lie even though it would have been only a short term embarassment to admit the lie as soon as you realised it wasn't going to pay off.
You wouldn't put yourself through all that shit if you weren't brutally beholden to the sin of pride. You are clearly incapable of admitting error, and the blatant way you double down suggests that you might not have the capacity to recognise that you have made one at all.
Sculptor and mcthinks have probably both read the treatise. The book is super short, you could have read it in a couple of hours if you skip the multiple prologues.

But not from you. Maybe someday, if you actually take Philosophy seriously, could you "prove me wrong". I'll be waiting.

Re: Beyond Postmodernity
Show your data
And don't forget, as per your literacy thread where you have shown you will not consider any 2nd hand source including such things as professors...
Please be sure to maintain your own standards while you share the raw data and any calculation tools you used to process it.

Tell this forum what you believe the mortality rate was of Covid-19 first.

However, it can strengthen immunity against the virus and help prevent serious illness, hospitalization, and death. It also helps reduce the spread of SARS-CoV-2.

To avoid hypocrisy, you have to provide both the raw data and the tools you used to analyse it, including whichever algorithms you crafted for the purpose.

Re: Beyond Postmodernity
Wizzy, the topic of the Covid-19 pandemic, the politics, the science, the misunderstandings; it's vast. There is a lot to talk about, for sure. Right now you want to talk about death rates and whether I know them. But earlier you wanted to talk about "them" overstating the risk to young children and misleading everyone. Everyone knows why you're trying to bait and switch like this.
It's because you are dishonest.
Mick: You are the only one here who thinks this is news
Wizzy: Sculptor already admitted otherwise.
Yeah, we dealt with that days ago. Sculptor posted a denial of something from which you have invalidly inferred an admission of something else. This might have been an innocent mistake last Sunday but now its repetition is a deliberate falsehood.
Your dishonesty is on display for all to see.
