Good story about that Amish community, but no data of any sort. And really no modern medicine? Death rates generally? Childhood survival rates? There's not a clear story here in a couple of minutes.

just something interesting.

Given the trimmed beard and clothing- doubt that the first man pictured was Amish. The Lancaster Amish run a weekly market here - they all were/are masked. As far as avoiding government, they vote and are politically aware.

They said he was Amish-Mennonite.

They said he was Amish-Mennonite.

What's that? To my understanding they are two somewhat similar but significantly different cultures.

Another one without good data

Mennonite is an offshoot of Amish, yes very different.
I too was confused by the terms they used.

I'm still confused

I personally called a poison control center with the ingredients to the vaccine and they told me that this stuff can kill you. Notice my hesidency

If ya eat it, yeah. If ya OD on it, also yeah. Broccoli is good for you but if you inject it into your bloodstream you’ll die.

I think it’s time for me to unwatch this thread. It’s devolved from “Covid has made it hard to go to the grocery store” into conspiracy theories punctuated with reality. Not my cuppa ️ . Doesn’t it get exhausting at some point, keeping up with other people’s stupidity when one can just focus on how they can keep themselves and their loved ones safe and not make a big stink about everyone else? I think people should get vaccinated, and I support vaccine mandates with exceptions for medical issues, but I also think people need to mind their $!#@ business.

That’s my crotchety thought of the day. Hope y’all stay safe, healthy, and sane. Wear ya mask.
