no, that's not the problem
it's just that some of us are making actual points and arguments and citing sources, and some of us are basically just saying "no u is wrong and bad"

Woah woah woah don't be using 'us' when you're doing neither.

'Kansas official says man drank cleaner after Trump floated dangerous disinfectant remedy'

This is about the fourth headline like this that I've read, just since Trump's comment about injecting disinfectant. On the bright side, only people dumb enough to believe he's the messiah are likely to take his terrible advice on anything, but it goes to show that the president's words do have some impact on the public, regardless of how braindead any particular administration might be.

He is at it again...

If light, the sun, sets, it has a tremendous impact on it - heat and humidity - wipe it out, it doesnt live well with sun, sunlight...

All wrong.

Basically Covid-19 has a hard time staying airborn on its own (its too heavy), but if you have aerosol particles, like water vapor, it can attach to that and stay in the air for longer. If it rains (i.e. air entirely saturated with humidity) probably not.

More info here:
https://www.modbee.com/news/coronavirus/article242264371.html

In any case the correct information is - has some effect, we don't know yet how large. Has some effect also comes from people not sitting in tight spaces all day, which will also slow down the infection rate.

Also sunlight doesnt kill it.

German newssources have to debunk it as well, even naming Trump, because of him promoting the theory.
https://www.deutschlandfunk.de/sonn...gen-covid-19.2850.de.html?drn:news_id=1124073 (german)


What happend in that broken thought process of Trumps is, that he read studies, that showed that sunlight (UV) would help to kill the virus on surfaces. Yet it was known very early on, that surface infections (you touch a door handle, then your face) are not as common with Covid-19 as first thought. Sunlight doesnt kill the virus on humans, in the air, or on your hands. *derp*

The sun, so powerful, very powerful - ly, *derp*, when it sets.

Decision structures (people) around him are handling stuff, you can calm down. Currently the issue is Governors debating on when to reopen the economy while not necessarily being informed by data. Good news is, no one really listens to/depends on Trump..

And even in germany the debate circulates around 'we've given people only a little support (financial)' currently, because we cant blow too much in case of a second wave, .. Problems are similar around the world. And too little medical equipment cant be fixed that easily either

Trump himself follows an election campaign rhetoric script for their corona press conferences for about two weeks now. Nobody knows why. But let him...

Think again...

And again...

I saw those reports (in NY self poisoning cases doubled) and changed my mind afterwards.

Even as a symbol, he matters too much to people, so he has to take responsibility for what he says.

You're still contributing absolutely nothing. This time with a lot of waffle. Boring. Bye!

Nobody is on Wargeek's side, even people who share the same opinion. He's just a sad man who's deranged about Trump and sees everyone as the enemy, even his own side. That's why nobody comes to support him in this thread. It's pretty easy to see that everything he says is done out of hate, not a rational argument. Other people in this thread are able to argue both sides pretty well.

All I'm going to say about this shit is this. When the president of the United States makes even the mere suggestion that injecting household disinfectants could possibly cure this disease, stupid people are going to take him seriously and try it. It doesn't matter whether he said that they should get out there and do it or not. People are desperate, and they heard something that might work. From the goddamned president. It's like the hydroxychloroquine situation, where doctors seem to be hording the pills and prophylactically to the point that people who genuinely need the medication are struggling to get it, despite the fact that it doesn't do shit for covid-19.

Let me say this in a very plain and simply way. The President of the United States of America has to watch his mouth. His influence is absolutely insane. What he says, lots of people believe like it's the gospel truth without any fact checking . The words he uses matters. Anyone who says otherwise is ignorant and truly doesn't understand his position in the world.

And this is the fucking internet. Of course the first place people took it was drink bleach... It was literally the first thought that popped in my mind when I heard him say it.

 

[FGFlann]

We are scraping the bottom of a barrel of nonsense. What's more dangerously influential than a president is national mass media. Taking a buffoonish question then repurposing it into a suggestion that you are 'being told to ingest household cleaners' is actual insanity. All of this is based on a lie to generate hype and anyone pushing it should be ashamed of themselves. Grow up.

And you STILL ARE NOT CONTRIBUTING ANYTHING. It's impressive at this point. Make one singular statement. Commit to one statement on this topic. I know it's scary. But I dare you.

Also lmfao at clutching your pearls over insulting lying morons. Huge concern, really.

Everyone here is somewhat civil and here you are crying over literally anything.

Gaslighting, the post. So strange that a MAGA troll would try to gaslight, right? It's very off-brand altogether. Might be the very first instance of this happening in the entire world.

I don't even know what you're talking about now lol
I talk about one thing, and you just bring up something completely different.
Please change your avatar to this btw

Edit: I just re read your post. You're saying that we're gaslighting you for saying Trump didn't say that?
That's what the media is doing. The media is gaslighting everyone saying that he said for us to drink bleach

These were taken a few days ago. I think it's true, all he does is just come onto the political section to yell at people.
