What exactly was passive aggressive? You posted an article that looked good at first glance. After a few paragraphs it starts to become suspect, then you say "Who is this guy?" and realize he's a snake oil salesman. I suggested if you want to be taken seriously you not post "science" articles from people who are what can only be denied as science deniers. Then you come back at me with some "Better wait for you vaccine, bro." nonsense and a Bill Gates video. All you've done around here in recent weeks has been troll, accuse others of trolling , and sulk. I don't know what's wrong with you, but you're better than this.

when you stated that only 3 people don't think I am a moron here you were being passive aggressive

We got kwingjitsu and various other karen's here shitting up the thread with extreme fear mongering stuff, we got all types of other misinformation on all extremes and spin articles being posted. If my occasional spin or opinion piece offends you well that is just tough shit. I don't see the thread as some beacon of truth and intelligent discussion.

The article posted has some data that is interesting and the video I posted also has some interesting links and a timeline...If they are a nothingburger to you then fine, but attack the message and information instead of the messenger. Correct bad data with better data if you choose to, that is intelligent discussion.

TLDR don't worry about it, move along

You apparently don't realize how many ignore lists you're on.

Most of it is implied data, rather than objective data. That's where the message becomes suspect. I approached the article in a very hopeful manor, unfortunately it quickly devolved. At that point I thought "What's this person's background?" and then realized that he's a huckster. For people less open minded, they'll just look at the writer and immediately disregard whatever comes next. If you're interested in intelleigent discussion as you say, you'd want to make sure that people are actually going to be taking in what you're offering, which is why I suggested you leave peopel like that alone when there's more reuptable sources that will support your point of view.

I only looked at the data in the graphs
I double checked the ones I found interesting

Opinions are just opinions...I don't link things for opinions, I linked that because it had some good graphs and data on a single link.

First of all the fact you would know something like that is sad and speaks to the cliquey nature of this site.

Secondly I don't give a shit if people don't want to view my content, why would I care? Isn't that what ignore feature is for?

I have a decent ignore list also, so why would I be mad at others for putting me on theirs? This isn't a popularity contest. People grow tired of other peoples content for various reasons.

Intentionally skewed graphs aren't data.

Weird. I thought discussion boards were for discussions. Apparently I was mistaken.

Then correct them if you want to discuss their inaccuracy.
That is discussion. If you don't want to discuss with that person you can not respond, or put them on ignore list.

Instead of discussion about the data and it's skew...you chose to attack the messenger.

I am all for a discussion board.
I am all for ignore lists...plenty of people post wack content, and what is wack is completely subjective.

If you'd acted like someone that was interested in discussion at the outset, rather than immediately hurling petty insults. That might have been a thing that happened. Instead, the new and improved thin skinned Rambo threw a tantrum. I hope you sort out whatever is going on with you.

honestly just tired of some of the forum antics...place is fairly toxic, you and I included at times

Call it thin skinned or antagonistic or whatever, but I am not the only one shitting this place up lately

You are the one who "hurled" insults here friend.

I merely was sarcastic about waiting for my gene editing vaccine, you took that as an insult for whatever reason.
