Not only amazingly clear as always, but also amazingly funny. The no-virus team is truly a joyful place. Thanks for making be laugh (I'm still laughing - especially about the monkey-sex part).
Mike, I want to thank you for your brilliant and persistent reponses to people who, it seems, choose not to think.
Of course, there are people who DO choose to think to turn the steering wheel if they notice they're headed directly toward a bridge abutment at speed. Usually, men will pause to think TWICE before deciding to flirt outrageously with their boss's wife at the christmas party.
But so often, people refuse to think if a pet idea they favor is at risk.
You are performing heroic and valuable service, for which I am grateful. I am not exaggerating.
You have the patience of Job. I am so impressed with how you deal with the incredible hubris displayed, and the almost incomprehensible gibberish some of these 'scientists' spew at you. How you keep track of their running in nonsensical circles amazes me. Great read, thanks Mike :)
The monkeys-having-sex metaphor is apt in describing these chu(i)mps and the proliferation of their nonsense. Itās really mind-blowing how the absence of basic reasoning is so universal! Where did all these people come from? Kudos to you, Mike, for battling these virus-worshipping apes and their illogic. But one suggestion: despite my name-calling here, I would avoid playing their game with any āinsultsā during these exchanges, which includes even crying-laughing emojis tagged at the ends of lines. These combative types really are like animals, and any jabs at them (even while their ad hominems are far worse) can only trigger them. Stay civil through the ugliest moments and to the bitter end, as difficult as that may be. Itās your logical argumentation that is the key here, and if you take the high road in terms of civil discourse, you might actually win one or two of these ālovely soulsā over to our side.
Maybe instead of aiming directly at the counterparty, play to those reading the thread. Interested lurkers are your best bet for gaining traction and changing minds, not those in the corrupt medical establishment.

Mike, I think some of these people are deception operatives. They seem to want to confuse and water down your information not to necessarily win a logic argument. If their goal is to leave those many persons who don't really get it about cell cultures to begin with to question the issue to any degree, then they have accomplished their mission. Regardless if they are on a mission or just argumentative, you might want to make a "standard one time reply" that says your logic, says you wont engage in it further, and will ban any posts that make attacks. I see Rider gave you similar advice below.
You deserve a medal, Mike. You'll go down in history :)
