Every word out of Steve's mouth is to demonize people who think logically.
He can't control fact-based people by fear alone.
He can only control them by taking away their rights.
All Steve's solutions encompass these tenets:
a. Fear & ignorance
b. Taking away rights
c. Demonize anyone who doesn't base their belief system on fear.
If you ask me what Steve's stance on gun control is, for example,
I can predict that he'll say those three things in every response.
Just watch.
Ignorance always comes up with these kindergarten unworkable "solutions"
A. Take away your rights
B. So that these people who are filled with fear
C. Are less fearful of you
They demonize people who aren't driven by fear and fear alone.
They can only control logical people by taking away their rights.

What's the Crude Mortality Rate of Covid, Bob F?
Do you even know it?
I do.
Do you have _any_ education on how pandemics are measured?
I do.
Read this before you respond:
*Choosing the right COVID-19 indicator*
<https://www.nature.com/articles/s41599-021-01032-0>
I have.
Those who are most ignorant are who want you to base your belief systems on
their fears. They can't control logical people who base their belief systems
on facts. Which is why they want to take away all our rights. That way tehy
_can_ control people who don't base their belief systems purely on fear.

Chris,
Below are very adult concepts I'm providing to you, free of charge. :)
Those most ignorant, tend to be the wacko Democrats, and hence they're also
the most scared, and, hence the most likely to use scare tactics, and hence
the most likely to use force instead of logic, science, sense, and reason.
Let's be honest with each other please. I accept the facts below. Do you?
a. *Some people are _scared shitless_ of covid*
b. *Some are not*
For example, I'm not in the least "afraid" of covid, and more to the point,
I'm not afraid of other people (which is the _most important_ concept!).
And yet, I made my own decision (based on facts!) whether or not to be shot.
My Body. My Choice.

What percentage of people have {virology,genetics,immunology} degrees Chris?
What percentage of people have a license to practice medicine, Chris?
Let's be honest about what you just said Chris, which is a key point in that
the percentage of people who can do "their own research" is, IMHO, very low.
a. Those who are scared shitless, are almost completely ignorant
b. So are most of those who are not
> More typically it's simply "information" shared by

On that topic of "information sharing", I don't know if you've noticed, but
_every_ post from Steve was scare mongering, because of this set of facts.
a. Those who are scared, for some reason, tend to be wacko Democrats
b. Those who are not, for whatever reason, tend _not_ to be wacko Democrats
Notice what I'm claiming, which is that the "problem" is only that the wacko
Democrats can't _control_ everyone else. That, you see, is the problem.
And that is exactly _why_ Steve _loved_ that making people lose their jobs
is what makes Steve happy: Which is why he posted this thread in such glee!
a. The Democrats will {lie,cheat,steal,etc} to _force_ you to get shot up
b. Everyone else just wants _choice_ to be allowed to decide for themselves
And no, if your job depends on that choice, it's _not_ a choice.
(That sms claims it is just proves my point how evil wackos like Steve are.)
a. Wacko Democrats don't care about anyone - they care only about themselves
b. Everyone else just wants to be left alone to make their own choices
> The only exceptions are if people have a genuine medical exemption. Not
> a medical exemption that they bought off the internet.
The fundamental question is whether or not we have the freedom of choice.
a. The wackos (mostly Democrats) want to take away that freedom of choice
b. Everyone else just wants to be able to choose their medical procedures
> Novak's case is a clear example of not a genuine medical exemption.
I don't know if I mentioned it yet, but anecdotal evidence is not science.
You & I can illustrate anything, even the earth being flat, with anecdotes.
Anecdotes have their place, where, for example, analogies can be anecdotes.
But anecdotes are not science.
*Why subjective anecdotes often trump objective data*

In the USA, we lost hundreds of thousands of lives, for our freedom.
The wacko Democrats, like Steve, want to throw all of that blood away.
Besides, you may not know this, but "My Body My Choice" is Steve's slogan.
Not mine.
Were the wacko Democrats merely lying (again) when they claimed that?
a. Yes. They lied. (again)
b. No. They actually _believe_ in what they proclaim is their foundation.
(Pick one)
