Great I wonder if YouTube will now unban all the “disinformation” videos they banned while the WHO was wrong. There were so many people debating this long before the WHO changed its tune. This is why free speech must be protected. Fuck these overlords telling us what to think.

Wasn't the banned disinformation about how COVID is just the flu or started in a government lab? The article seems to indicate that the virus was actually more transmissible and dangerous than officially communicated. Do we really think things would have gone better if they said it was more dangerous? What am I missing?

These 'overlords' also tell us to take the vaccines instead of Ivermectin. Blind disrespect for authority is no better than blind respect for authority.

Lol you Ivermectin folk are STILL at it???

you misread their comment.

Good catch, I did too until I read your comment. Thanks!

Well actually they first said “no way I’m taking Trump’s vaccine” and then flipped.

So yeah blind disrespect for authorities has a much better track record.

Who is "they"?

I've heard people, such as Biden and Harris, say they didn't trust Trump to give correct vaccine information and would make their decisions on when to take a vaccine based on what doctors say.
