The story seems to be referencing the first time apple had regular people try it which may have been in a focus group or at some kind of publicity event. If this did happen I’m sure they made safeguards against it before selling it

Why is Biden so angry and anxious then? Does he need a lexapro prescription? Is he maybe having nightmares about all the blood on his hands?

“Listen jack the soul of the nation is more important than one election. And the soul of this nation craves genocide”

Biden should keep his campaign promise of not seeking a 2nd term

USA doesn’t give a fuck about other countries sovereignty when it goes murdering across the globe

Manufacturing genocidal sentiment. Death to america

It would get shutdown by multiple governments pretty quick probably

Yeah why negotiate now while we still have hundreds of thousands of lives to throw into the meat grinder.

Heavens to Betsy sigh

Every lib’s real values: white people invaded=the good guys

Brown/Black people invaded=it’s complicated

Do you have a rebuttal to the argument or are you just trolling?

We are active!! This post is about lemmy activity and you’d rather not see activity here?

Active users=bad trolls

I think the only disconnect we have is that I think different people will take this story in different ways. Some of the people in this thread I think are in the minority that is very worried about covid and the real effects its having on them or their loved ones and to them this article isn’t sensationalist.

Generally I agree with you though, most people will take an article like this as proof that the media is always full of shit and fearmongering for money and that feeling isn’t unfounded.

I think that as long as its still spreading pretty regularly, which it is, I know its not the same as in 2022 but there is still spread happening in lots of places. As long as thats happening theres a chance of mutation and if someone with a bad mutation goes to an airport or a sports event that could trigger a surge at any moment. Its impossible to predict this stuff so I understand being skeptical of headlines especially because media always fucks up science stories. But like I said with the spread and mutations happening we don’t know when but its likely that there will be spikes or surges at some point and that means preventable deaths and thats bad. Its not as bad as we’ve seen before but still bad.

Thanks for the explanation. I responded to you in another comment thread about this stuff so I won’t respond again here.

I like your disdain for journalists and capitalism and the state but sometimes stories stick around for a long time because they’re actually still on-going. Pandemics usually have multiple cycles. There usually isn’t just one big spread and that’s it. The fact that the state f’ed up the response to the initial wave just makes more waves more likely.

Journos are wrong a lot but not 100% of the time just like 95% lol

I think because you seem to be agreeing with the poster who is against masking? But I’m not sure because his post is removed now.

When you said

Because it generates clicks (and thus revenue) for media conglomerates.

What generates clicks?

I’m just asking because the post you were responding to got removed so I’m missing context

so much brigading from these lemmy.ml users.
