[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, but the actions of people who are not taking precautions and infecting others with covid are simply not the fault of people who are taking precautions or warning about the potential long term health risks of covid.

It's been everyone for themselves for a while now.  Someone else's bad behavior is their own fault, and not the fault of people who are warning others to be more careful.  That's a neat trick!  But since you don't want mask mandates and want people to be responsible for their own behavior, you also have to accept that people actually are responsible for their behavior.  So strange for you to blame the careful people for the mass infection of others sheesh.  [/quote]

Don't be ridiculous. First of all, I have no problem with people who take precautions, and have never said that, and suggesting that I did is incredibly dishonest.

Second of all, spreading misinformation absolutely impacts people's behavior. When you flood Twitter and DCUM with posts about how COVID is ruining everyone's immune systems, when so many of us have had COVID and have:

A. fought off subsequent infections just fine
B. had our annual blood work several months after infection and everything looks fine
C. looked at the studies you cite and it turns out they apply to very specific populations

...we not only don't listen to you, but it creates fodder for right-wingers to make fun of you and make it easier for them to convince people that COVID is a government conspiracy or whatever.
