But that wouldn't have much effect on cases, unless they simply stop counting cases.

How would an in-hospital treatment of Ivermectin reduce the number of cases? It's only being used when people are already in the hospital with symptoms, which really should have almost zero impact on the spread of disease.

Have you been actually following how things have gone? Sweden has 1708% more deaths to covid vs Norway, but only 84% higher population. That doesn't sound that great to me.

Interesting, I saw a map show chick peas as being a big crop in that region and thought it was surprising, just because it's not seen as a huge money crop.

It's likely documenting things like death threats that were the violations. I wouldn't whitewash that by simply labelling those as 'controversial right wing opinions'.

I would say I get that impression from the continued strong support for the former president, who is arguably still the leader of the party, and his insistence that the election was stolen.

It was sort of implied as part of the conversation, but I see where I misread that.

Ask Republicans who won the election, and tell me it's something Democrats are doing.

I'm saying that children aren't being taught the things you say they're being taught.

Where did you hear that kids are being taught those things?

I would say the alternate reality that the Republican Party is living in is the gold standard for propaganda.

That's not to say that Democrats don't use propaganda, but Democratic Party propaganda at least shares a reality with the rest of the country and world and isn't in the process of manufacturing an entirely different reality.

There's a nice graph that shows Canada having a relatively low death rate but this is somehow an indictment of Canadian policies.

This is probably directly related to harassment that streamer/youtuber Drift0r was subjected to at the hands of another streamer.

I think it's due to location. When I VPN to the US I get your results, but from Canada I get the parent comment's results.

Is this a result of influence from YouTube or a result of the relative popularity of the videos?

Both sides pick topics that are discussed. Have you seen the news about migrants and the 'Biden Border Crisis' as I've seen it called?

The article clearly states that there are far-left sources of misinformation, but they do not drive engagement.

The author does in fact identify that left and far-left (and center and right) misinformation exists, but does not drive engagement. A cursory glance at the article reveals this.

The article provides examples and cites the source of their classifications.

"MARTIN: So when you talk about a far-right news source, do you feel comfortable giving us an example that we might recognize? I know what I certainly think of, but what are you thinking of?

EDELSON: So some of the top-performing far-right news sources in our data set were things like Newsmax, Breitbart - that kind of media source.

MARTIN: And you and your colleagues say that far-right content is the only partisan leaning in which misinformation actually drives more engagement. And there is no what you call misinformation penalty. Could you just talk a little bit more about that? So a misinformation penalty is what? Is that if you are demonstrated to be inaccurate or false, then what? People who are on the left side of the ledger would give you less credibility. Is that it?

EDELSON: So we can't say exactly why it's happening. But what we see is that for left-leaning sources, for center sources, and even slightly right, the sources that have a reputation for spreading misinformation just don't engage as well. There could be a variety of reasons for that. But certainly, the simplest explanation would be that users don't find them as credible and don't want to engage with them."

Have you read the President's twitter account lately?

Those articles appear to have a much more measured critique of any problems than what the President has been actively tweeting.

When was the last time this happened?

That is true, but the cell reception is abysmal in that area. I drive out there frequently and do not have cell reception 10-15 km closer to the tower than where they presumptively were.

The shortest route is going through the US south of the Lake Michigan, but this still doesn't explain how they ended up in Southeast Manitoba, and especially off of Highway 12.

Also important to know that Google Maps sometimes draws roads where there aren't actual roads - there are trails that are marked like they are roads in a few places that I know about and I've attempted to get Google to correct them because a) it's private property and b) it's not safe to travel there in the winter.

The article was comparing coal costs vs Solar and Wind. Carbon output from fossil fuels suggests not only coal, but also oil and natural gas.

I believe he's the face of journalists behind the scenes who do all the heavy lifting work.

It's perfectly fine with natural peanut butter too - you can always add salt onto the peanut butter.

Yes, thanks to conservation efforts.

I think you have the relationship backwards. The DNC was a client of the cyber security firm. That cyber security firm also has the NRCC as a client.

How did his post shame men?
