-Vaccines are clearly working at lowering the death rate but do virtually nothing to reduce the spread. In fact, vaccines are artificially selecting against early variations and creating a keyhole that more transmissible mutants pass through, which might be a very bad thing depending on several other assumptions. This obviously makes perfect sense. The virus, in whatever form, is going to find uninfected people to infect. Those with alpha already will not be infected with delta ->if no one can get alpha because of vaccines more people will get delta, mu, etc.
What do objectionable about this statement? Is it that vaccines are actually not helping to lower death rates, is it that vaccines actually are reducing the spread, do you object to both claims, or are you ok with this claim? I am fairly certain you probably agree with this statement.

-Vaccines are still almost totally pointless for anyone under the age of 50. If you disagree, here is some simple math for you to understand: chance of covid death in under 50 = (19776 + 501+2630+361)/(361+2630+7501+19776+98973+137149+167533+180608) = 4.92% * chance of dying from covid * chance of getting infected with covid = 0.006% = 1 in 16 666 chance of catching covid and dying from it. If you take a 95% efficacy vaccine that reduces your chances to 1 in 300 000. So you take a small lottery chance and turn it into a slightly smaller lottery chance. In practical terms, it’s the chance of being struck by lightning in your lifetime (1 in 15000) being reduced to the chance of having conjoined twins. I know there are people here that will argue against this, but it’s a fact and you can’t deny it. The statistics are publicly available for everyone to see. In another vein, under 49s have a reduced life expectancy of less than a day. Your anecdotal counterexample does not do anything to change this (my uncle died and he’s 45, so there!). With that said, vaccines for anyone over the age of 50 are essential and you could even make an argument mandatory, though on rights abuse issues I disagree.
Fairly certain you disagree with this but why? Where is the math wrong then or is it that the math is irrelevant?

-Masks (as used) are virtually useless and we may as well bin them
-Lockdowns are virtually useless and not an effective containment strategy
I am sure you disagree but it is more than clear that there are many places where these mandates were imposed and have had a high level of compliance that have had huge spikes in being infected by the virus.

-Covid follows a bizarre and repeating pattern of infection that currently cannot be explained
If you have a problem with this please provide your insight.
Quote:
-the goalposts for governments are constantly changing (slow the spread->keep olds safe->get everyone to 60, 70, 80 now 85% vaccinated->hospitalizations are what matter->low case counts are all that matter)
This one would be hard to argue against.

-the vaccine carrot did not get you what you wanted (covid to be over), and unvaccinated people are not the reason why
There have been a lot of break through cases. Note that he previously claimed that vaccines have been helpful. Not sure why you would have a problem with this claim.

-Weight of probability is covid came from a lab in Wuhan
Notice he didn’t claim it was man made in a lab. Do you really claim that it originated in a wet market in Wuhan? If not where?

why do all these ******* morons talk like they just had a moment of pure clarity and then just word vomit tucker carlson verbatim.
What is the most moronic claim he made?
