Generally youâd want to be staying away from parents who are posting live on Twitter when they are meant to be worried about their childâs health in A&E. It kind of undermines the gravity of the situation.
The same tweeter also had a tweet up threatening medical professionals who had a different view on masks to her with legal action.
These are the sort of crazies The Doxxer wants an echo chamber of.
I have no real problem with the tweet, itâs not something I would do if concerned for a child but everyone deals with such matters differently.
My issue is that you put it up but failed to then inform us of the subsequent update that the child was assessed by doctors and sent home. The fact you put up the first tweet and not the subsequent update tells me you had no concern whatsoever for the child, you simply used the child to support your Internet argument.
I certainly donât want censorship, itâs much better when people have the opportunity to display themselves and their values to the world.
You obviously did have a problem with the tweet. You canât post what you did and seriously expect anybody to believe you didnât have a problem with it.
You think I should be constantly scouring that personâs Twitter account for an update?
Youâre going deep into bad faith motivated reasoning now.
The simple fact was that child got pretty ill from Covid and other children have died from it. Youse lot donât like that being highlighted because itâs too confronting for yis, yis donât like being confronted with real life stories that might make yis reconsider yer beliefs if yis had to consider them for a moment. Itâs all about sticking yer fingers in yer ears and whistling away.
Hence we had a nutcase on here yesterday denying the existence of a 12 year old in ICU - and none of the OIUTF cult calling him out on it. Thatâs how morally bankrupt yis are at this stage.
My father died from Covid so if you think I have no concern for other people who are seriously ill with it youâd be dead wrong.
I wouldnât wish my experience on my worst enemy, no matter what they believed.
I think if you didnât want censorship you wouldnât have objected to the tweet.
What did I post about it that gives you that impression? I have no problem at all with the parent putting the tweet up, she seems to want to keep the Internet informed on her kids health status and more power to her. I have a real issue with someone who used her tweet for their own cynical purposes, feigning concern about the health of the child when they didnât even have sufficient concern to seek any updates.
I have no reason to doubt the story of the 12 year old in ICU, the only consolation is that no child has died of Covid in the state aged 12 or younger so the chance of recovery was exceptionally good.
See youâre going into bad faith motivated reasoning again. Anything which disrupts what you want to believe is automatically bad faith. That isnât honest debating, itâs a comfort blanket, a coping mechanism, itâs a technique youse lot have developed to block out reality.
I put up the tweet because it reflects the truth, and I have no other agenda except the truth, Iâm not interested in insane culture wars like most of this forum, Iâm interested in reflecting reality.
Hell knows few enough people here are. Most of the prolific contributors to this thread are only interested in it being a circle jerk for cranks and they hate when that gets interrupted. They arenât in any way honest. Theyâre liars and fantasists.
The truth is that a parent took a child to A&E who was assessed and found not to need any medical attention. Nothing wrong with that, better safe than sorry and I can well understand why some parents would be experiencing heightened anxiety in these times with all the scaremongering going on. There are people shrieking on the Internet about all the kids dying from Covid, I think itâs 4 so far on the entire island under the age of 18 and none under the age of 14? Tragic obviously, but important for everyone that things are kept in perspective
It seems clear to me though that the reason you giddily reported on this had nothing to do with concern for the child, which says a lot more about you than you seem to realise.
I had no issues with the tweet. The fact you canât point to anything I posted to suggest otherwise confirms that you accept this also. Whatever anger I may have is with those exploiting the child for their own cynical purposes, I donât believe that was the case with the parent though.
Noted. While I admire the fact that you have identified covid as an area you can try to rise lads, Iâm deeply disappointed by your lack of ability to formulate a intelligent argument when actually pulled up on it. The wall of posts method of arguing is wearing very thin. #proportionality
