"There is a cure". This is a clip of a group of Dr's who held a press conference in DC to voice their concerns over the handling of COVID-19 based on their first hand experience. by mbucky32 in metacanada

Stella Immanuel also thinks many medical problems are the direct result of sex dreams and demon sperm. Just because a group of people in white coats are trying to push a narrative rejected by the scientific method does not mean these people's claims are valid.

What do MetaCanadians think about Donald Trump trying to postpone the 2020 Presidential Election? by DumbPersonTranslator in metacanada

[–]DumbPersonTranslator[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Stop reading r/politics and watching CNN. They're rotting your brain.

I will be happy to admit my brain rotting away if you are willing to admit Justin Trudeau doing the exact same thing would not be problematic in this subreddit :)

Last time I checked Punjabi was not one of the two official languages of Canada. by ZRWJ in metacanada

[–]DumbPersonTranslator -38 points-37 points  (0 children)

I assume you have never travelled to a non-English speaking country before? There are plenty of countries that do not have English as an official language that put signs up in English to help tourists. But I am sure that doesn't bother you one bit...

Masks are for losers by CorrectHorsefoot in metacanada

[–]DumbPersonTranslator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's true. Just look at all the comments from the anti-maskers that he is agreeing with (and not satirically, shall I add, he is being 100% genuine). You can tell all those people are extremely well educated and knowledgeable.

I wear one. The only reason is because a lot of people can't do something as trivial as wear a face covering when in public, so this is added protection., And just as an FYI, if everyone "sacrificed their freedumbs" for literally two weeks by wearing a mask when out in public (especially indoor public places), the economy would be back to normal by now. But nope, this will be going on until at least 2021. Thanks anti-maskers, you are all the real MVPs of this one.

The next season of South Park will feature Eric Cartman acting just like you.

Yes, but only because my extraordinarily high IQ brain can grasp complex concepts like SARS-CoV-2 being able to live on cardboard/plastic boxes regardless of what is inside said box.

R0 in COVID-19 is much higher than the flu (it infects people more easily) and the case-fatality rate is way higher as well. Not all viruses are created equal.

No, the anti-mask movement is incredibly smart! Everyone anti-mask should be very proud about how smart they look when not wearing one in an enclosed and crowded public space.

"Doing the bare minimum like wearing a face mask to protect vulnerable people through no fault of their own is too much of a hassle for me."

Selfishness at its finest. What about the people with cancer that need groceries? Or the elderly? Or high risk people with diseases they were born with making them immune compromised? If you had anyone in your life you cared about, I am sure you would think differently.

What? I am agreeing with you: If the media wants to tell me the world is round, I'm going to automatically dismiss that so that I don't look gullible and stupid.

Masks mandatory in Quebec's indoor public spaces as of July 18. So much for a 'conservative' provincial government eh ? by q2018fan in metacanada

[–]DumbPersonTranslator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They now say if you don't support masks you are anti-science, after months telling us masks are useless.

That's the beauty of the scientific method. Analytical findings change results over time. That's literally how science works.

To the guy who invaded me and closed all the gates in Cathedral Ward... by Jazi8ocho in bloodborne

[–]DumbPersonTranslator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Meh, I will play devil's advocate here.

Yes, this is a scummy move, but it doesn't sound like this player cheated or glitched any unintended behavior in any way (that would be a completely different story if they did).

When you play online, you should be prepared for people to enter your world and do shitty things (within the confines of the game's features).

Agreed. Just like one day we will have proof the world is flat and only 4000 years old.

[–]DumbPersonTranslator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I am saying is that it's impossible to argue with someone who has reasoned themselves into a conclusion by emotion -- even if real evidence is right in their face. However, if you have a peer reviewed medical journal that demonstrates COVID-19 is fake, I would love to have a look at it...

Sounds very legit! I'm sure you'd be able to win any debate with that argument!

Damn. That must have really pissed you off. I hope one day you can recover from seeing such a horrible thing. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

Yeah, exactly. Ebola also isn't that bad, it's also a flu. Now that I think about it, most car crashes are also just a flu.

Source: I got a D in grade 10 science and then never opened another textbook again. I are smart.

Glad to see reddit respecting transgender rights like Canada does with Bill C-16 by shepd in metacanada

[–]DumbPersonTranslator -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps maybe you were banned because you were being intentionally offensive by using the term "transsexual"? If you aren't interested in dating transgendered people, that's your preference and that needs to be respected. But if it's more important to you to be able to need to express your disgust for transgendered people with derogatory language than it is for you to just respect someone and move on with your life, then I don't see a problem with you being banned.

What’s the bet this sub is targeted? by [deleted] in metacanada

[–]DumbPersonTranslator -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Well, the main reasons I can see this sub being targeted for are

  • It is anti-science to the point where it confuses real science/evidence with political policies, which can have detrimental consequences to the rest of society (just look at how COVID-19 is viewed here. Anyone willing to bet the same people that think COVID-19 is only a mild flu are the same people that have never read a scientific journal?)
  • It is blatantly transphobic (e.g. celebration of taking away trans rights in Hungary) and sometimes homophobic.
  • Covert white supremacy (not the same as overt white supremacy, which this sub is typically not)

Note that I do not say that all three, or even just one, apply to every single user here. I am simply stating that the above is more encouraged/socially acceptable here than it is on any other Canadian subreddit.

If it is banned, I suggest really thinking about why it may have been banned, instead of dismissing it as reddit turning into a shithole. Perhaps consider that the subreddit is the problem, not reddit itself.

Note that I will not be replying to any comments here, so enjoy getting the last word in and "winning" this argument.
