A Dissenter’s Rationale The following sentence does not contain a non-sequitur, nor does it contain a paradox. I am a white, privileged, Ivy-educated, multi-lingual, native San Franciscan-turned-New Yorker who recycles, composts, and believes in public education and social welfare, and I have not received a Covid-19 vaccine and never will. Why? I hope you’ll read on to find out.
Thanks for writing this...now I have something to send to a few friends who are potentially salvageable Covidians.
(Maybe change 'resistor' to 'resister'? You can dis a diode all day long and run down a capacitor as far as you like, but resistors are typically immune to vilification.)
This is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen🙄Crazy that you think this mash of anecdotal evidence, gut feelings and misleading, thinly strung arguments is more valid than actual scientists who study this stuff. Oh and lol you probably killed a few ppl by spreading this info.. awkward
Aside from the myriad of contradictions you make in this essay, the one that bothers me most is your (typical) claim that wearing a mask prevents the inhalation of fresh air but allows the passage of the virus.
Lets say you're right and assume one single virion is 6micron.
Heck, lets exaggerate for the sake of this claim and say its actually smaller; 3micron!
Carbon dioxide molecules (thats 2 Oxygen and 1 Carbon) are around 120 picometers. Not only is that 3 million times smaller, but your cells have these atoms inside of them. So you tell me, what about that claim makes sense? The only mask that can 'stop' a virion is an N95, and its not because they're tightly woven. Its because they're chemically treated and statically charged.
There's a lot more wrong here, and its a shame people are circulating an essay you wrote just to vent. Id say have someone who works in biology revise it, then have someone who works in an ER revise it. Or reach out and I'll try to help research -a few of your cited sources have changed the material you referenced, and some others are notorious for publishing unverified information.

You are such a brave, beautiful person!! So many hugs to you
Thank you for your research and bravery. Do you think the J&J injection is less problematic than the mRNA ones? Curious. I appreciate you very much.
