    I’ll buy one. Been wanting a BS2 but they actually seem to have gone UP in price. My uneducated guess is this’ll be mainly a BS2 with a few extra controls so you don’t have to do as much control diving to get the AFX mode stuff going.

    He continued that same passage and said that deaths were basically connected to corona measures. No logical contradiction (not interested to watch it all). I'm on your side, but when you dismiss people's argument at first opportunity, it gives off heavily biased vibe. And in the next post you immediately go "facts don't matter, i know this crazy dude"... (strawman) Fair chance my ass

    My second paragraph was an anecdote, not a strawman. I was drawing a parallel to arguing over similar points where a conclusion is made then evidence contrary to that conclusion is ignored. You can just ignore the second paragraph if it distresses you, it is not relevant to my argument.

    My argument is that COVID-19 has caused excess mortality over the past year. I'm willing to look at evidence that will falisify by argument if you have any. That video is bunk.

    Facts don't matter to conspiracy theorists. It's like water rolling off a duck's back, just gets completely ignored. They start with their conclusion then cherry pick things that support the conclusion. They don't try to falsify their claims. It's basically faith.

    Had this issue on another forum. Guy who runs the forum is convinced that Covid doesn't get transmitted in the air thus masks are useless. Thinks it's all transmitted via fecal -> oral transmission. Has a theory that all of spread at the Rose Garden ceremony for the US supreme court nominee was a Democratic plot where they tainted the food being served to all of the Republicans. They were outdoors and you can't transmit it outdoors so that's impossible so it must be the food! Someone pointed out, three times, "Here's pictures of the indoor reception." Guy with the poo poo theory did not respond to any of those comments. Just refused to acknowledge that people were indoors in close contact and spreading it. Nope! Gotta be a CONSPIRACY!

    Anyway... Didn't mean to make this another Covid thread. I dropped out of the main Covid thread a while back because at this point it just seems like it's a political allegience at this point if you "believe" in epidemiological facts or not. But since RDJ linked this latest SoundCloud track to a YT vid about it it seems topical.

    RIP commercial movie theaters

    Wonder if there will be any industry to release this to next year?

    I had a bad feeling about movie theaters surviving pandemic.
