      Okay, how was there an attempt at taking away both of these things? Because I can’t think of any. Also if free press took a hit during the pandemic no one told Fox News because they’ve been spouting their vile lies the entire time lmal

          I think it’s a great example because they’re the single biggest source of conservative misinformation lmao. If the press was being silenced by some left-wing conspiracy don’t you think Fox would have been a major target for them??

          Ignoring the fact that Rogan is an ignorant dumbass who does absolutely no fact checking, did Malone back any of his claims up or were they all just from his mouth? Because Malone was not the “literal inventor” of mRNA vaccines. It was a huge collaborative effort that he played a part in along with hundreds of other researchers over decades. But you already know this cause you do your own research instead of just taking people’s word for it right?

              it was primarily leftist sheep who were the ones begging for government to shut down conservative voices or any voices that disagreed even the slightest with the narrative being pushed by left wing medias during the height of the pandemic.

              Thats because conservatives were and still are actively spreading lies!! Fucking of course we want that shit to stop.

              I don’t think anybody believes that Dr. Malone invented the mRNA vaccine by himself in his basement with a toy chem kit from amazon

              Lmao He sure as fuck believes it (his Twitter profile even stated that he invented it when he was 28 lmao), and I think you did too until I called you out. Why else would you have called him the “literal inventor” of mRNA technology? All he did was help prove that it was possible, by the way. There’s been so much more R&D since then that it’s basically different technology now. What you’re saying is like if the inventor of the wheel claimed that they invented cars. Go look up what his past coworkers have to say about him! One of them stated his brilliance, but also added that he’s extremely stubborn and refuses to budge on things he perceives as correct even when shown differently. He’s a just a narcissist.

              Dude, if there was an US government conspiracy against media, then it wouldn’t happen in other countries.

              But the same anti-scientific morons that cry about putting on masks could be found all over the world.

      I saw plenty of jackasses using their free speech to spread misinformation, like the vaccines not working and the mask not being necessary.
