    Baron,

    At this point ET has reached the point IMO of being one of the top 500 sites (near the bottom of the list) on the internet for the sheer volume of Covid misinformation posts (but not for readership).

    Remember that this is not a victimless situation -- Covid and vaccine misinformation has caused the deaths of tens of thousands across the globe, and led to illness & hospitalization of many others. Including those poisoned by fake cures such as wormwood, etc.

    I have attempted over the past two years -- while I have not been on the road weekly -- to point out the actual facts from respected mainstream sources to counter this constant stream of misinformation. Yet it is daily battle of attempting to counter a continual stream on nonsense. At this point maybe it is just time to sit back and just let your forums be completely overrun with misinformation while providing no proper context.

    IMO opinion it is long overdue for some action by the moderators in the forum to address the obviously fake Covid misinformation from dubious sources. The best starting point is to have a discussion with those who constantly post the misinformation about cleaning up their acts. It's one thing to have a political discussion about political policies related to Covid -- it's another to post a continual stream of misinformation that is fact-checked to be false over and over again.

    Baron -- there is an endless list found in the politics forum over two years. I will private message some examples when I get some time.

    Just so there can be some balance here, and it's not all one-sided, I hope as you post examples of what you saw as misinformation that others also post examples of respected mainstream sources providing frequent and persistent misinformation. Because ALL misinformation has — in your words — "caused the deaths of tens of thousands across the globe, and led to illness & hospitalization of many others".

    Let me get this straight -- You somehow believe the misinformation sourced from the top dozen anti-vax Covid purveyors of misinformation and constantly posted in your forums bears equal weight to information from respected information sources. Likewise you believe that information sourced from Rumble, Bitchute, dubious blogs, and Covid-denier Twitter accounts should bear equal weight to mainstream sources when reporting on Covid.

    At this point -- this is not a debate about the quality of information between sources. It is only in the minds of Covid-denier promoters that "respected mainstream sources are providing frequent and persistent misinformation". An assertion that simply is not true.

    Covid misinformation is killing tens of thousands of people across the globe. Either you want your forums to promote these deaths via misinformation or you put the brakes on its continually posting.
