Basically what's happening in the video is Jimmy Dore going back and forth comparing statements that Fauci has made publicly with content from his E-mails. Included are statements about his stance on masks, asymptomatic spread, a possible lab leak of the virus, whether or not he has been blocked from making particular statements, and his talks with Bill Gates about a global vaccination effort. Dore claimed that Fauci lied by pointing out contradictions between his E-mails and his public statements.

To be honest, I wasn't able to read the text that was posted very well so I'm not sure how true it was. However, one particular thing I did notice was that Dore said that Fauci lied because he claimed publicly that we didn't know that 50% of infections were asymptomatic whereas he was shown to talk about asymptomatic infections much earlier in one E-mail. The thing is, Fauci didn't say in the E-mail how many infections were asymptomatic, only that there would be some. So I don't count that particular one as a lie.

Wow B.C. your eyes need testing.

What is the name of this board? I'm sure you can answer that.

You could answer "I didn't insinuate you are a troll". Now why don't you do that?

No.
It really is your turn to answer the question.

What does the video say?

Quote from: Bored chemist on Today at 10:26:44
I'm not asking you to transcribe the whole video or anything like that.

I'm just asking for something like this...
" x minutes into the video they show an email from F to ... whoever...  saying ... whatever....
That statement is false  and he should have known that at the time, so he is a liar."


I'm ignoring your deflection tactics.

You accused me of calling you a troll when I didn't.
I accept that you seem to have called yourself a troll, rather than me and I apologise for that misunderstanding.

And there it is. Character assassination. You are good at that, aren't you.
You forgot to answer the real point.

Rather good at that, aren't you.

Let's have this out in the open. How long have you considered me a troll? Don't just dodge the question.

I know. That's why I asked you what was in the video.
But, for some reason, you seem unable to answer.


What I said above:

The video is about the lies told by Dr Anthony Fauci during the pandemic. There has been a release of his emails over the period of the pandemic via a freedom of information request.

You seem incapable of parsing sentences. Why do you keep doing that?

No I am taking no notice of you. You accused me of calling you a troll when I didn't. Maybe you just misread it, which is excusable. If you misrepresented me on purpose to paint me in a negative light that is less excusable.

Well here is a report from the BBC about the Fauci email release. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-57352992

Well, if you haven't watched the video then you won't be able to come to a conclusion. Since you have no observations on which you can base said conclusions. Without observations, all is conjecture.

Having said that, re. " Since you have no observations on which you can base said conclusions. Without observations, all is conjecture."
That's not quite true.
I have made observations about what Dr F has said, and I have seen reports from others about what he has said.

It is not unreasonable for me to conclude  (in this context) that the video contains similar material which misrepresents what he said.

Rubbish. You just don't want to watch it since your mind is already made up for you.

Now the reason why we need to be concerned about how those in power deal with covid distribution is pointed out in this BBC report. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-55795297

If we don't get those billions of doses out there then the unrestricted infections will lead to more, and maybe deadlier variants of covid. That affects all of us.

Why should rich countries delay getting these vaccines to the rest of the world?

Let's get one thing straight. I do not believe in conspiracy theories. The 9/11 conspiracy theories are spread by those who have done no proper research. Sometimes, however, the so called conspiracy theorist finds and shares something worth following up. However, they can be easily dismissed because of past behaviour. This does not benefit anyone but those in positions of power.

Physics, Astronomy & Cosmology / Re: What is a singularity?

One apple picker, picks 10 apples. You have ten pickers. Each picks the same amount. Therefore 10 pickers times 10 apples each equals 100 total apples. Now you have an unlimited number of apple pickers. Each successive picker picks one more apple than the last. Since the number of pickers unlimited there are infinite pickers. This leads to an infinite series of apple pickers and an infinite sum that diverges to infinity. Here we have a singularity.

It was stated on here that the comedian Jimmy Dore was a conspiracy theorist. Here is a video that shows why in this instance he is not.
If I remember the context correctly, a poster claimed he was not a conspiracy theorist for supporting a conspiracy theory about a gas attack in Syria.  Someone pointed out that he also supported some of the 9/11 conspiracies. I doubt he is a committed conspiracist, just out to get higher viewing figures.
That reminds me, I should really put both sides of the Syria thing up rather than leave the one sided view. I’ll do that.

The problem with the "debunking' of the Syria gas attack is it was based on one engineer's report at the OPCW. That engineer dissented and said the scene looked staged. The late Robert Fisk was on the ground in Syria at the time and this is where some more of the doubt came in. Here is a link to his article. https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/syria-chemical-attack-gas-douma-robert-fisk-ghouta-damascus-a8307726.html

So, you break the rules and then, on account of that, you call me a troll.

Well, that's one approach to discussion.

I didn't call you a troll. I said you chase trolls. Which is what you do. You actually do a very effective job.

The point is that,
...the downloads are the direct result of me emailing formulas, not a title. I did another mailing last night with what I just posted yesterday and 12 more downloaded the full paper. That brings me to 82% complete downloads and 75 partial. :)

You appear to be branching out from grifting into email spam. Bravo you!
