| Tuvix | LjL: It's largely because actually reviewing content is nontrivial. I took issue with a link-dropped study here a few days ago that had some claims I found unlikely (but I remained merely skeptical, open to possibility the data did in fact say that.) | 03:54 |
| Tuvix | I probably spent 30-45 minutes on just one claim referencing one footnote, and found it to be at minimum highly misleading and cherry-picked. But without reivewing the cited data, there's no way to actually say for sure. | 03:56 |
| Tuvix | Basically, Brandolini's law. | 03:58 |
| Tuvix | To be clear, I did review enough of the data to make my claim, and ironcially the dataset referenced even warns against exactly what the paper did with the data. Pretty big mistake for a paper that wants to be taken seriously I'd say. | 04:01 |
| LjL-Matrix | Tuvix: the point is not if the study is right or wrong. Or, rathet, ir is, as THAT is what should have been debated. Instead they almost literally denied that the study did in fact contain the OP's claim, and every time he quoted it verbatim, he just got downvoted without explanation. | 05:18 |
| LjL-Matrix | You justify that, you make me as scared of you as I said I was scared of them in MY comment. | 05:19 |
| LjL-Matrix | Those people aren't PREPARED TO DISCUSS anything that makes that claim, and they will stomp on anyone who thinks it should be looked at because hey it's a peer reviewed study and it makes a very notable claim | 05:20 |
| LjL-Matrix | I know how it feels to be stomped on. The fear is stronger than the pain. | 05:20 |

| Tuvix | What on earth are you claiming I'm justifying? My concern for a claim? It's *good* to be skeptical of claims that don't make sense, but only if you act on it reasonably by looking at data as I did. | 05:38 |
| Tuvix | If you're this "afraid" of people having gut instinct, then you need to frankly keep your opinions to youself more. It may not lead you to the right answer, but we always make assumptions based on our existing knowledge (you've surly heard the phrase "stand on the shoulders of giants", yes? Prior knowledge/art is how we understand the world around us) | 05:39 |
| Tuvix | To be very clear, the study I'm referring to claimed that vaccinations led to more death by COVID. I'd really love to hear how you think being conerned a study that says that those who had better vaccination coverage were more likely in per-capita ratios to die of COVID-19 in 2022 and how this *isn't* cause for alarm. | 05:41 |
| Tuvix | The data of course not only doesn't back this claim up, but the cherry-picked data it referred to by the UK ONS actually indicated the exact opposite, *except* for a very specific range of ages that the data itself even noted needed to be taken with the understanding that those most at risk were prioritized (thus we're vaccinating those most likely to die, and those same people die more often.) | 05:42 |
| Tuvix | So, yes, it's downright good to be cocnerned about these claims, and if you feel that seeing something like that shouldn't be cause to review the data, I suggest you stop dishing out critique of people who get "that funny feeling" when an absolute bullshit claim is made. Now I at least didn't dismiss it outright, spending my precious time to go and debunk it, pubilicly, here, so that others who had less | 05:43 |
| Tuvix | time on their hands could get the benefit of some review I made to more quickly see the same data I had without putting in the time. | 05:43 |
| Tuvix | If you'd like to discuss the ONS data I'm referring to and the specifics of the study that was dropped here, I'm happy to do so. The claim is that receiving a 3rd dose (ie: 1st booster) between late 2021 into 2022 led to higher all-cause mortality (and the study went on to attempt to link it to cancer through what I can only assume is equally nonsense claims that I have no direct knowledge of beyond | 05:48 |
| Tuvix | debunking the all-cause mortality.) The paper was also published by a venue that is known for rapid-pace reviews and tends to pressure the reviewers with fast turnaround. | 05:48 |
| Tuvix | Let's discuss this more to abate your fears here, because I still have no idea why you're so deathly afraid. | 05:48 |
| Tuvix | If the concern is only that some people can't think for themselves and share their anti-knowledge very publicly, that's been going on since long before the Internet (modern tech just allows it to go viral faser.) https://xkcd.com/978 | 05:56 |
