Think this through. Large-scale events are going to lead to emotional reactions where people are going to opine about things where they lack the appropriate education. By your definition, no human is intelligent, because modern life poses all sorts of situations where you don't have optimal information. Are you going to apply that standard evenly for situations where you might be labeled as not intelligent?
Let’s use something we agree on
I choose to get the vaccine. However, people that have chosen not to get it because it’s new and they just don’t think they need it and also strongly feel they shouldn’t be forced to, i respect that opinion and don’t think any differently about their intelligence. Even though they made the opposite choice as me
Now, the loons that think the vaccine is a weapon to kill and leave the world with only far right wing conservative and poor minorities, I think they are idiots

He actually 30/32 qbs in time to throw/be hit
So he def isn’t holding the ball long

The message just makes you feel uncomfortable. So you rationalize that Whitlock is a moron.

Posters on the rant convincing themselves we won in 2019 in spite of him all of a sudden lol. Same ones urging Boutte to marry his baby mama.

I honestly would put that theory to the test the day Whitlock is no longer under the umbrella of The Blaze and has his own independent platform.

Apparently Burrow went public being anti abortion and anti gun. Whitlock also showed pics of the flashy outfits Burrow has worn, along with a tweet that pointed out at the super bowl, that during introductions, every player ran out with their helmet on except Burrow. Between the outfits and helmet thing, he is implying that has a huge ego, which will contribute to his downfall
seeing this site age into dumb, boomer takes over the years has been wild. I mean, we used to just backchannel nudes around, now we see tabloid shite takes that are eaten up like y'all are insta wannabes on some nonsense kardashian gossip
burrow is that same dog he was at LSU. come back at the end of the season, not week 3.

From an immunologic perspective, there isn't really much a difference between those people. Human biology already links human health directly to the population. Most of the reasons for not wanting the vaccine were pretty stupid. We vaccinate the entire population against several diseases with lower CFR's than COVID, but that doesn't mean very much to these people.

The upvote/downvote ratios were certainly surprising.
We didn’t have them a decade ago, but I suspect Whitlock have been mocked mercilessly back then, in the style of BilJ’s posts.

I think burrow is fine. But I also don’t think it’s a coincidence the all time greats across different sports all seem to never get involved with societal issues. I just think the margins are so damn thin to get to that level, every small minimal distraction matters
Like I said Lebron is the only one in recent divisive media times to do it

It just seems like they all never wanted an ounce of distraction that wasn’t needed. Brady never says shite. You aren’t forced to.

Bill Russell almost sat out an NBA finals game. Mohammed Ali lost years of his career posting the Vietnam War. Roberto Clemente died in a plane crash going to provide aid. Tom Brady goes to the Met Gala.

those recent all time greats didn't grow up with social media where everyone's opinion is somehow needed on every topic. it's a generational thing and those guys are older. our generation and after grew up in a completely different world of communication that the previous ones only had later in adulthood. sports didn't somehow avoid this shift.
