Yeah, I’m a hunching it up a bit. But there’s some amount of absurdity in expecting large amounts of scientific rigor in lemmy comments when those leading purportedly scientific bodies are being led by vaccine-denying simpletons.

That ubiquitous expectation of powerless individuals to reason and behave perfectly while ultra-powerful people can behave like spoiled five year olds is foundational in making life fucking miserable for me personally.
