    Whats so complicated about probability?

    Probably that it is at the end of the day still chance, and once it happens it happens.

    Almost all people who didn’t vaccinate against covid are still alive and well you know.

    Pretty sure that’s wrong.

    People take a risk either way. Taking the vaccine or not taking it.

    You’re also taking a risk to take the disease head-on or not. Side effect of Covid include

    -Excessively high fever
    -Weakness
    -Potential risk of Long Covid
    -Fucking death

    Pretty sure most people think of Covid, the thing a lot of people did die to, or Polio, the returning sickness that we literally had a president who couldn’t walk because of.

    Fun part being we’re having life-debilitating diseases (again, polio) come back from the results of the anti-vax rhetoric.

    A lot of medicines have side effect. And a lot of side effects. But you still take them because The thing you’re taking them for fucking sucks

    There’s being careful and there’s forgetting the whole point of it all: to not get a life-debilitating sickness. Which a lot of vaccines eliminate.





  • Votes matter but you also have a system in place, and if you’re necking the 50/50 vote point expect that system to matter. Going to lala land and imagining a system that isn’t how your system actually works doesn’t fix anything.

    Get more people to vote
    Discourage 3rd party bait picks that will never get elected because they don’t even have a local/state/anything presence
    As an added bonus, you’d probably need to get people more interested in house/senate elections if you actually wanted to do anything about the electoral college. Cause it’s not being changed at the presidential level.


  • He barely lost the popular vote, and in the end the electoral college decides. It’s complete denial to act like it was a landslide. Even if you agree the electoral college is problematic it was a bad election.

    If you don’t want to think about the electoral college, the popular vote has to be a landslide, not what it was in 2016.

    You can even look it up and this isn’t even the first time this has happened. it’s the 4th time. It doesn’t even get the most blatant discrepancy

    yes,

    I do see now you’re referring to Famezen which I’ve reported as well now

    I do think it’s worth keeping in mind though. I don’t personally think the algorithm is a good solution to go to for any little thing on youtube. I’ve seen it spur people for a variety of reasons.

    In fact i’m pretty sure “the algorithim” has been the topic of other mildlyinfuriating threads in the past. Either here or on reddit. I mean it’s blocked videos in the past for the color red.



  • Would you put this on the same importance of “must use algorithim known for false positives” as Climate Change, Covid, or the Holocaust?

    Pretty sure they put a vtuber in the covid panels, it was a joke for awhile…if they were in the algorithim you want, they’d of been banned.

    edit: and as someone else pointed out, the account is “Buy_YT_Views.494” It’s a blatant throwaway account that’s been banned before.
