@Vikingen Your memes are typically cringey, but that one was pretty good (https://discord.com/channels/707691030748594288/750393154150203402/780286046025678889). Anyway, have a look at this video (somewhat relevant to your meme): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpr-6QApErA-

@Thunder face, do you know what company that meme about the laying off 60 people is from, that’s pretty wild, unfortunate and hilarious if legit.

when you realize aoc plays games as well as she does with politics
poorly

but at least she's entertaining in both categories as a clown

mhm

why a politician

playing video games

like

you're in office

@SayIDidIt™ Assuming the meme in <#724105162741907467> was made by you, it's spelled "lying".

If not, carry on.

lol

ping ponged

@Froski what did i bypass?

The word filter, there were two possible issues, but the obvious one was after the use of "cracker" as a slur. Plus it sounded like the N word may have been used, but wasn't completely sure if that was the accent and they were saying ninja.

smh

wasnt either of those words? idk where you got cracker from

It was in the video.

i think your mistaking 'megaflip' for the n word tho

Audio wasn't great, which is why that was one I wasn't sure about the N word, but I am certain that the other word was mentioned.

ive rewatched it 3 times and havent heard cracker once

given they are strong asian accents so i can understand the confusion

want me to DM the video?

You can.

I seem to recall the same story being told in the Obama era.

obamium

you realize hes a doctor.....

also the amount of anti mask sentiment on this server is just stupid

your not fighting the system by being a public nuisance

Yeah but the tweets a little unhinged, especially at the end

summary:

twitter is horrible

that is true

Here are some doctors talking about masks: "Although mechanistic studies support the potential effect of hand hygiene or face masks, evidence from 14 randomized controlled trials of these measures did not support a substantial effect on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza."
https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/5/19-0994_article

for that very reason they said back at the beginning of the year that wearing masks would not really help anything, since COVID-19 seemed to transmit so similarly to the flu. however, when they did studies on COVID-19 *itself*, they found that in the cities where masks were worn regularly, the spread of COVID-19 dropped significantly. Now, correlation does not necessarily mean causation, but as far as they could tell mask wearing was most likely one of the higher contributing factors, and thus they started recommending wearing masks.

Here are some other doctors from the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons also on masks AND COVID specifically, many caveats about masks and mostly downplaying their effectiveness overall: https://aapsonline.org/mask-facts/

@Nope It is factually the opposite, MANY places where mask mandates have been enacted the case numbers have skyrocketed (the AAPS link above shows the case in France), and places like Finland and Sweden where masks were NOT mandated either did NOT get pandemic level cases or they just had a normal outbreak case number and mortality curve that fell off to even achieve reduced overall mortality rates when compared to previous years.

Actually in my city bacterial infections are up because everyone wears a mask and doesn't wash it.
