I finally figured out what is annoying about that Malhotra et al. medificators. Clinical case studies & animal experiments direct FUTURE real empirical research; never, never to be used for policy. Meanwhile Malhotra is broadcasting his father case study to >1M viewers. Shoddy. — PolitiTweet.org

Covidopaths share one thing: lack of intellect mixed w/desire to hurt others: e.g VC @mdvex22 and Berenson still can't get something as elementary as Simpson's Paradox (vaxxed tend to be older & have > risk factors than unvaxxed) & similar basic stuff. https://t.co/6GGE0MsB59 https://t.co/sHI6A6R0Rk — PolitiTweet.org

3) I don't know the ratio men/women in the riots but so far 4 demonstrators were shot dead: the 4 were men. It is hard, very hard for a conservative male soldier to shoot an unarmed woman. — PolitiTweet.org
