How many times does a so-called "expert" need to be wrong or dishonest before you stop believing them?

1) There are no COVID-19 experts (at least, there WERE none) because this is brand new. There ARE "infectious disease" experts and they are giving the best information they can. A true expert understands enough to know that he doesn't understand everything and adjusts with new data


2) The problem is that the running of a country is a Multiple Variable Optimization issue and simpletons take one variable and expect the entire socio-economic engine to be run on it.

However the loudest voices are the experts pumping fear.

IMO the problem is politics. This theory will be proven correct when we find the news on COVID die down to practically nothing after November 3rd.

It's going to be December 1st and the PT board concerning COVID is going to be:

Experts 2 months ago: “YOU DONT NEED MASKS THEY DONT WORK!”

Experts now: “JUST WEAR THE DAMN MASKS!”

As long as they are wrong but in alignment with leftist agenda-- they are still 'experts'. See "climate scientists" for more examples.

Simply not true in all cases.

People are lying and manipulating data to achieve a goal.

For me, it's not matter of how many times they are wrong, but for how much longer. I will believe the lies until early November, then reassess.

Until then, virus is deadly virus. It's novel.

What about experts who say this is way overblown? Do they still count as experts? Or is it just experts who happen to espouse a similar viewpoint to yourself?

I don't need the validation of any experts.

A blind man with a room temperature IQ can cobble together what's happening and why it's happening.

Use your brain, son.

When they all lined up and said that police brutality against black people was a far greater public health risk than covid19, the mask came completely off for me.

Not a matter of quantity. If they say something I don't like or want to hear, they are idiots that should not be believed. If they say something I like, then we must all listen to their message and do exactly what they say without any critical thinking
