The quote provided by Averia Light on page 95, post 5, is literally advocating for herd immunity. Advocating is arguing in support of something. Look it up.

Let me refresh your memory:
"If you are talking about past posts of mine saying herd immunity is best - I still feel this way."
How is that not support for herd immunity?
That's not a rhetorical question. I would be interested in your answer.
Because only if that statement - somehow - does not support herd immunity, can you meaningfully argue that you never advocated for it.

I note that on the previous page, where you deny advocating herd immunity, go you to on to advocate herd immunity in the very next post lol:
"As a majority of People heal with no ill-effects from Covid-19 it will be safe to contract the disease to build an immunity from it".
That, in case you didn't know, is an argument in favour of herd immunity.

^ Not worth pushing the point mate. The quotes are there to view.
Those who see the obvious, see what is actual- those who deny the obvious live in a little world of hidden embarrassment.

And this is as dangerous a statement as is possible under the circumstances...

"As a majority of People heal with no ill-effects from Covid-19 it will be safe to contract the disease to build an immunity from it".

I think there is a point.
Because given such a ridiculous, indefensible position, I am sure Dong will do what any grown-up would do - see that she is (very) obviously wrong, admit her mistake, and apologize to all the people she has accused of twisting words, lying and bullying.
Because that's what adults do. That's how civilized relations between people proceed.
Its a question of good manners.

I have never ADVOCATED heard immunity to control Covid-19.


I have never said 'Heard Immunity was the way to beat the virus'.


I don't care how many people you round up to state I have, I have never stated that heard immunity was the way to control or beat Covid-19.

Well, this is embarrassing lol
Not at all, I know what I stated, I know what I worded, I know what I said and no where did I stated the best way to tackle Covid-19 was through heard immunity. I never stated anywhere on any of the threads that countries should be using heard immunity to tackle Covid. No where, absolutely no where.

Through both threads I have been all for lockdown, masks, distancing, good hygiene.


If you guys want to twist my words go for it, that's your choice - I know what I said and I never stated what Fifi or Top Bass have stated.

It has nothing to do with twisting words.
Noone is saying that you said the things you have decided people are accusing you of saying.
They are saying instead that you have and continue to advocate herd immunity.
Not some cherry-picked and irrelevant words of your own choice.
Noone is going to say that verbatim, because you cant consistently spell 'herd'.

"If you are talking about past posts of mine saying herd immunity is best - I still feel this way."
What they (and I) are saying is that the above statement is, in itself, advocacy of herd immunity. Which it is.
Not 'it is' like - maybe it is, maybe it isn't. It not debatable. Its what the word means.
I strongly suggest you look it up.
You support it. That is advocacy. The support is the advocacy. Nothing to do with 'the best way to beat the virus'. Or 'the only way'. Just the support aspect.
I don't know how it can be explained any simpler than that.

I don't know why you are doubling down. Everyone can read your quotes and see how wrong you are about this.

This too is advocating herd immunity and its on the previous page - twice - lol:
"As a majority of People heal with no ill-effects from Covid-19 it will be safe to contract the disease to build an immunity from it. As long as the vulnerable and elderly are safe and our hospitals are not over run."
Again, not even debatable. And dangerously misleading too.
You cant decide to disagree with the dictionary because of 'my feelz'.

So, yes, embarrassing. Cringe-worthy.
Dont you ever wonder "What if i am wrong?, like absolutely everyone is saying"?
Because - erm - you are.

Anyway I grow tired of this. Cant be assed with something this stupid.

Dong, your posts are there for all to see. I have given the source.

I cannot see what on earth you are denying it for when it's there in black and white and can be looked at by anyone who cares to look.

The Cambridge Dictionary (and other dictionaries) give the definition of the word "advocate" as being:

.... to publicly support or suggest an idea, development or way of doing something ......


Your own post on page 116 of your previous thread says:

"Over time herd immunity is best as long as it is maintained, manageable."

Thus you are publicly supporting - advocating - herd immunity. I am at a total loss as to how you can accuse Bass of lying and deny that you'd supported herd immunity O_o

This is getting silly - the obvious is obvious.
Advocated - promoted - supported - upheld - believed etc.
lets not split semantic hairs.
The word was not a references to what you 'stated' - it is a references to what you meant, in other words your stance on 'Herd Immunity'
