<p>You asked for a source. I gave you one. It had multiple lies in it. You didn't even open the link.<p>Now you are pretending that someone can't go on YouTube and find more lies about the vaccines from the likes of people like Rachel Maddow. People have assembled long clips, it's a meme.<p>"Nuggets of truth", my lord, pure delusion.<p>"But but but what about some hypothetical scenario where the president didn't lie?"<p>We will never know, will we?</p>

<p>Yeah, ignore the 3 lies in the quote I posted, then ignore the other lies in the article. That's your convention, I get it.</p>

<p>Exactly.  For those following along, take note about how this interaction with JumpCrisscross went.<p>These people will lie. Deny.  Gaslight. Move goalposts. Ask for sources they have no intention of looking at. Then lie some more.<p>Imagine claiming, "<i>No one lied about the vaccines</i>" in 2025 and asking for proof when challenged. It's absurd.<p>An yet, he has a long posting history here; we know he's not oblivious.  So what are the incentives to pretend it never happened?</p>

<p>What a pathetic reply.<p>You made the claim:
><i>Nobody lied about vaccines.</i><p>I posted a link from a left-leaning source, fact-checking the PRESIDENT literally lying about vaccine efficacy.  Then you move on to something else.<p>Well, that's in there too, but you didn't read, did you?<p>"You’re not going to get Covid if you have these vaccinations.”"<p>I posted one resource, I'm not doing your research for you. The fact that you deny this indicates you are completely brain-rotted.  Enjoy.</p>

<p>><i>Nobody lied about vaccines.</i><p>Sure they did. Go back and listen to what the media and politicians were saying about the vaccines when they were first released: you won't get COVID, you won't spread COVID. We ended up at "you'll still get COVID and spread COVID, but your symptoms will be lessened".<p>I'm not anti-vaccine by any means, but the story around COVID vaccines changed...a lot.</p>

<p>From the article:<p>><i>"Specifically, the Sky News team ran a study where they created nine new Twitter/X accounts, three left-wing, three right-wing, and three politically neutral, and then tracked what content got dumped into their “For You” tabs on the Elon Musk-owned social media service during a one-month period in 2025"</i></p>

<p>They created 9 accounts for the study, and had "experts" qualify content as left or right wing. They could have at least tried before publishing this story for the 100th time.</p>
