My Nextdoor account was suspended less than 48 hours after creating a Team Reality group for posting "misinformation." Here is the post that got me banned:(credit to @statomattic and all of #teamreality for the inspiration): 🧵
What is Team Reality? It’s a truly grassroots, leaderless movement. We come from all political backgrounds, races, and religious and spiritual beliefs. We may not agree on a lot of issues, but these are some principles we believe in:
- Restrictions on our liberties, no matter how small, must be shown to do more good than harm. “Non-pharmaceutical interventions,” such as lockdowns, vaccine mandates, and mask mandates, have failed to prevent the spread of covid and have done tremendous harm to our society.
- All adults have the right to make medical choices that affect their own bodies and those of their children, free from force or coercion.
- Science is a useful method of inquiry for learning about how the world, but if an alleged fact cannot be questioned and debated, it is not science.
- The best way to sort truth from lies is not to rely on official fact checkers and censorship, but to listen to many different voices and use our critical thinking skills.
- The purpose of life is not to simply avoid death from a virus. None of us know how much time we will have on earth, and each day should be treated as a gift that should not be wasted.
- Children are vectors of hope, not vectors of disease, and unnecessarily burdening them to protect adults’ fears of this virus is unconscionable.
- Humans are social beings, who need real, in-person human connection, and virtual communication is not an adequate substitute.
If this resonates with you, we would love to meet you! Team Reality doesn’t have a particular agenda - some of us are here to meet new people, to build a parallel society of free people, to share information, or to engage in advocacy. We are open to listening to new ideas.
Credit to @kimchicristal for the turn of phrase.
I clicked on @Nextdoor's link. They really need to add an option to their dropdown menu for complaining about censoring opinions and verifiable facts in order to promote global totalitarianism.

I listened to Fauci, Stephane Bancel (Moderna), Annalies Wilder-Smith, and Richard Hatchett discuss the future of covid at Klaus Schwab's WEF yesterday. Here are my notes. 🧵1/

Bloomberg’s moderator, Francine Lacqua, says the public can submit questions to the panel using a QR code. “This is the beauty of 2022, we know how QR codes work.”

Now is the time to thank your higher power for gracing us with the beauty of QR codes. 2/
Fauci says we aren’t going to eradicate the virus and is will be like the flu, becoming endemic with seasonal pandemics. We will continue to get more variants, and we don’t know if they will elude the immune response. 3/
