    Reading and understanding are not the same things.

      I’m losing my mind that this person is constantly going

      “COCHRANE IS TRUSTWORTHY. THEY SAY MASK BAD”

      And then you point out that cochrane did not say that, and have emphasised the opposite. And they ignore this as if its fake news 😂

        To be fair to them. It’s not long since I pointed that out. They seemingly haven’t seen my comments at all yet. Maybe they’ll read them, read the statement, review their understanding of the paper and express that their perspective has changed. It’s too soon to say that definitely wont happen! (So let’s enjoy imagining it will while we can.)
