meeera - from one of the articles you linked talking about the 94% hoaxers:

Quote:
Shared thousands of times on Facebook, posts claim that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) “quietly updated” its COVID-19 data “to admit that only 6% of all the 153,504 (U.S.) deaths recorded actually died from (COVID-19).” According to the posts, the CDC stated that the other 94% of people died from other causes, and that only 9,210 people have died from COVID-19. This claim is false.
I do not subscribe to that idiocy at all. That is a bunch of crap.

You may not believe me. So I will give you a reference that might further clarify my views on covid and vaccines (see below for the link). This is from a different website that I frequent. One that has a lot of good people, but several of these people believe in this 94% hoaxer stuff (now that I know what that is). Many are anti-vaxxers. I am definitely in the minority there, trying to promote the message "Yes, covid is bad. Maybe not as bad as the government is trying to tell us, but it's still bad. And you should take the vaccine." There, I am belittled for thinking covid is bad, and promoting the vaccines. Here (on MobileRead), I see it as you and others belittling me for the exact opposite reason - because you think I am minimizing covid. I will say on that other forum (link below), at least they are belittling me for the right reason. They are attacking something that I actually do believe. Here on MobileReads, I feel that I am being belittled for something that I don't believe. And I think this is because I bring up points that are not in 100% agreement with what you and others believe. We are probably 95% in agreement, but that 5% that's left - that level of disagreement is not popular here, and things can get brutal as people try to hammer you to 100% agreement.

Anyway, if you don't believe me and want some independent indication of my beliefs, go check out this thread:

https://www.homesteadingforum.org/th...9-alone.12647/

This thread on the other forum starts off with exactly the 94% hoaxer position. So it's a real good fit to answer your questions about me and what I might mean by "dying with vs. dying of" (although I already explained that in a previous post). It eventually morphs into a discussion about "the vaccine is doing more harm than good". Actually, it is a hard switch to that new topic at post #11, and at that point I get a bit more offensive (if that's even a possibility!) I don't believe that the vaccines are doing more harm than good.
The math used to justify that claim by one member there is laughable, and I point that out to them. Anyway, some time when you're bored, go read the thread. I have the same username over there as I do here (not that you couldn't spot my posts a mile away just from my "style" even if I had a different username!)

See if some of the things you think you know about my beliefs are not turned on their head.
