Meh, it's not surprising that most people comply with Authority type figures and moves with the crowd without really questioning anything, Look at nazi germany for example, or better yet, look at snowden leaks!
Did people really give a crap about the excessive spying that their government are doing on them? No, and it became even worse when a lot of people are not only giving their data and whole life to the US government, but to the CCP too through apps like tiktok.
a lot of people are really brainwashed and just follow one political party or specific belief and they block every other arguments and live in their own safe bubble. And this goes for ultra nationalistic nut jobs , Hardcore libtards and tree huggers, both are stupid and easily controlled.
now when it comes to
this danish study, I'm quite skeptic. As it's only one study and although the difference between people who wear masks and who didn't is minimal,
there is still a difference about .
Also, the study didn’t monitor the participants to make sure that they actually did wear their masks properly.
what they did is asking people how well they thought they did with compliance. and more than half admitted that they didn’t wear their masks perfectly.
we can't just point at one study and said "Aha, Gotcha!" no we need to look at everything that is surrounding this study and analyze it carefully, like who are the people/institutions that are sponsoring this study and whether they benefit from it or not...etc.
For example, Like this
study that said:
" Avocado Consumption Alters Gastrointestinal Bacteria Abundance among Adults who are overweight, and People who ate avocado every day had a greater abundance of gut microbes that break down fiber and produce metabolites that support gut health."
And who are the ones sponsoring this study, the Hass Avocado Board, lmao
.
So, you need to be careful when you read these "scientific" studies and wait until its peer reviewed and you should read it yourself and account every little thing that these studies mention in their papers.
If every thing is "scientific" these days we can look at study like
this that says:
"People with beliefs in conspiracy theories have a cognitive bias known as the jumping to conclusion (JTC) bias, the tendency to perform hasty decisions based on little evidence, and a preference for an intuitive general thinking style, as opposed to analytical thinking."
And we can say "wow, so people who follow conspiracy theories are brain dead and follow their beliefs and pseudo science instead of real science and logic".
So, you need to read this studies with Extra grain of salt, and in general, a healthy skepticism is not a bad thing
