That would probably be a pediatric oncologist tho. Who would rip her a new one.
Man that is a dark response. Unfortunately it’s probably true.
Also and I seen this with covid too, we tend to concentrate on deaths and barely talk about the damage done by disease when you survive.
With these people, they think the long term effects are fabricated or exaggerated. Death is a lot harder to make alternative explanations for.
We have family back in India and someone died from covid, but that still wasn’t enough to convince the antivaxxers in my family here in the UK.
My mum ended up on a ventilator, because she got brainwashed by them into thinking it’s no big deal and covid isn’t even real, it’s just a cold (she was in the shielding group). Then one of the most insane members of my family tried to convince my dad to tell the doctors to take my mum off the ventilator, because the ventilator is a big conspiracy and will kill her. Luckily another family member got wind of it and intervened. My mum pulled through but was weakened by long covid.
Some of these people are truly unhinged. They’re so detached from reality, it’s unbelievable.
Another example is the YouTuber Sheeps and Neeps. He was a flat earther, so of course it followed he was into all the anti-science stuff. He got cancer, put his money where his mouth was, and did his own “natural” treatment. He died.
I can’t leave. I see the sheer stupidity, I want to distance myself from it, but I’m stuck on this planet. No matter how hard I want to live on Mars, I can’t, and it’s not fair.
I would be ok with a compromise to get the current administration and those nuts to Mars ASAP.
I’d like to see them leave for Mars. Don’t care if they actually make it there.
if Mars get populated, bunch of Musk fanboys would be among the first to volunteer, so i pass
Wouldn’t be long before they convinced themselves the outside air was breathable and staying inside was spraying their liberties.
I hear the perchlorates are lovely this time of year.
The SpaceX mission to Mars more and more look like FSD in Tesla.
There’s no way a company will bet on such risky mission, that if it failed it would completely kill it. It would actually have to be financed by a government, but as they are dismantling it, it also looks less likely.
We have much better chance for future if we can stop pollution and stop climate change. The billionaires think that they can simply run to Mars, but it won’t be in their lifetime.
Also if somehow it will be successful, it won’t be for us, unless maybe sending us as a slave labor.
