Worst Doctor We Can Find Thinks Unvaccinated Twins Are Getting a Raw Deal

I’m so glad that the moderators here are not getting political about COVID - Following the examples of fairness and balance set by Facebook, Twitter, Google etc.  Keep up the good work.
 By the way, despite my oozing sarcasm, I have been very pro-vaccine here and indeed wish more efforts had been made  to approve reformulations faster to keep pace with the evolution of this virus.

Im doctor, and this line "now runs a medical consultancy firm for insurance companies looking to deny benefits.". *chef's kiss*. It is truly amazing how many times I order something, get told to do a "peer to peer", (where I have to talk to a doctor from the insurance company to get something approved), and just by calling them, "Oh yeah, its aprroved, we are good to go". It is such a scam, just meant to waste time and save some money by hoping people dont call.

*gets off soapbox*

So points are issued, users not allowed to post and other types of punishments are doled out for vaccine comments/opinions in other threads, but owners/moderators are allowed to put their opinions into threads if it is being done as an attempt (poor) at humor. Where's Elon Musk....

Really lame attempt at humor. 

from what I’m seeing, the most which can be said for the vaccines is they MAY reduce the severity of the symptoms, etc 

while that’s “not nothing,” it’s hardly so significant that mandates are in order. 
 

BTW - given how fascistic the Trudeau government has become, you do yourself no credit siding with them.

Have another laugh.

? but it is worse then lame it is lazy and sad considering how many vaccinated Twins have gotten COVID.

So congrats Stu at bad humor and breaking the rules of the site.

This is almost as entertaining as watching Rocky and Bullwinkle. And I’m not referring to the OP.

You couldn't find Scott Jensen?

Hilarious! Laughed all the way through it.

I used to have trouble using Microsoft Word until I got my first vaccine shot. Now it's a piece of cake. Got my booster and damned if I can't do Excel spreadsheets like a pro now. I'm hoping the third shot will help me write code. Lots of money to be made designing video games with lots of first-person shooting and explosions in them. The only drawback I seem to have is this urge to face northwest every morning and bow multiple times while chanting "Bill is my Savior." Don't know where that comes from...

For all of you complaining about why you can't write what Stu just wrote, it's because Stu is paid by the site to write whatever he thinks is funny.

You're not, get over it. If you don't like Stu's content, feel free to... *gasp* NOT READ IT.

That’s not a very good answer. Exempting those in power from the rules often backfires.

The word "hypocritical" comes to mind.

Stu is paid to sometimes push boundaries through satire. It's basically his professional reputation.

When we start paying someone with a similar reputation to do the same, they can be like Stu. Until then, they can keep their poor attempts at satire and boring agendas to themselves.

I don't care how that comes across, that's the reality of the situation. Some people, due to reputation, experience, and ability are given different slack than the typical user.

Would Stu have been allowed to mock the pro vaxers?

Then pay me. My sarcastic response was just as “funny” as the overpaid guy.    Can I write a paid entry about the masked couple sitting outside at Target Field with nobody near them?   They could easily be mocked based on the science.

I also enjoyed the (real) piece in the pioneer press that stated the "most common, long-term effect [of the vaccines] has been not dying of COVID."

Not to be a jerk (and I am vaccinated) but isn't that the most common, long-term effect of getting Covid, not dying?

Are you suggesting that nobody anticipated the response this would provoke? I like to give y’all credit for more than that.

But provoking a response and then beating up on it has a floor of passive/aggressive, and a ceiling of bait and switch. Maybe I’ve just overestimated people. 

The un-vaxxed Twins are the ones I respect the most.  Hats off fellas.   One day the rest of the team will wake up and find out the hard way, they were used as lab rats with that experimental crap.   Wake up folks.

I was blissfully unaware of Stu’s piece until half an hour ago so you’ll have to talk to someone else about that.

People seem to be under the impression that TD is some monolithic entity and that is far from the case. I am the community manager, most of the rest of the site is someone else’s problem. 

And who might that be? I'll be happy to continue the discussion with a responsible party.

TD - Start paying this guy for his posts.
