Your Owlstalk history is a mere 54 posts and if you keep this up, most of them will be about me. In the long run it's probably advantageous to concentrate on issues rather than obsessive tantrums about people who happen not to agree with you. This pandemic is a complex issue of science, sociology, public health, psychology, finance and many other aspects. Many posters are trying to come to informed opinions based on a wide range of sources and logical positions. On balance, these people are more likely to arrive at a considered viewpoint than those who can contribute little more than shouting the first thing that comes to mind and then shrieking at others who think it might contain flawed reasoning.

Obsessive tantrum about people who happen not to agree with me? How ironic then that is was you, who accused me of screaming like a little girl because I had the gaul to question one of your many questionable posts. You should be in politics.

I made a detailed post about the science of asthma in football and how that might be relevant with regards the outbreak of a respiratory disease, even going so far as to quote a specialist in the field. Forgive me, but I'm struggling to see what was "questionable" about that or why a reply which did little more than call it "patronising" was in any way addressing the issues.

Now they can see that they were being taken for mugs. The lockdown was more about politics than science. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
