Okay, you got me. I looked through the first two paragraphs of the first article and saw enough to see that you have no idea what it was you posted. You just found something that used RNA and gene in the same sentence and concluded that it meant you were right. You can still flip through the entire thing and see that no where does it say anything about mRNA being a gene.
If you'd like to try to explain what you think a "gene" is and why it's accurate to describe mRNA as a gene I'm open to listening. If you would instead like to focus on poor word choices all you're doing is showing that you have no idea what you're talking about.
What makes your comment random isn't the site. It's the fact that it makes no obvious point. I can also take a screen shot of a government website, circle a paragraph or two and post it somewhere with a caption saying "OMG LOOK!!!!!!!!!!!" I was sincere in my original comment. You're pointing to some information but you're being extremely unclear as to what you think it says.
As to the point about mRNA, what you need to understand is that mRNA isn't new or cutting edge biology. We've known about it for decades. It's been over 10 years since I was in university and it was already basic part of any program that required any understanding of molecular biology at all. I can't give you lesson plans but I am the sort of pack rat to keep old text books in my hall closet for 10 years. Enjoy!
If you'd like to see more of the book I might be willing to copy more pages if you ask nicely. I'm also still willing to explain to you what's going on in the webpage you posted. It's really not clear what you're trying to say. Maybe you think government employees should be more on the ball about updating every corner of their websites? I really don't know.
I'm not sure if you read the article passed the headline but I doesn't say what you think it says.
There are many varieties of RNA and they have different functions in different organisms. Some organisms don't have DNA. In those organisms RNA serves as the primary genetic material so when discussing these organisms it's fair to say that manipulating their RNA is manipulated their genes. Humans aren't one of these organisms though. No animal is.
The type of RNA in question for the purposes of the vaccine is messenger RNA (mRNA). To understand what this is you need to understand the basic flow of gene expression in a DNA based organism. DNA lives in the nucleus of the cell. In order to affect things outside of the nucleus it needs an intermediary, mRNA. An enzyme will come along, read the DNA and assemble a strand of mRNA based on the genetic code of the DNA. The mRNA will leave the nucleus and travel to a different part of the cell, the ribosomes. The ribosomes will read the mRNA and assemble a protein. Proteins are the primary worker unit of gene expression and they're responsible for a lot of the functions of your body.
Most vaccines work by injecting people with proteins from the target virus. The immune system will recognize these proteins as a threat and develop antibodies against them which will give you protection if your body every encounters the proteins from an actual virus. The mRNA vaccine is different in that instead of being injected with protein, you're injected with mRNA. The mRNA will travel to your ribosomes and the ribosomes will assemble a protein based on that mRNA. You immune system will then recognize and build antibodies against that protein the same way as with a conventional protein based vaccine.
Actually I majored in both toxicology and human physiology. It's why I laugh every time someone calls mRNA vaccination "gene therapy". I knew what mRNA was before it was cool. If you'd like to share what you think is going on in that image I might be nice and explain it to you.
Alternatively you can keep grabbing screenshots of random websites, circling random sentences and circlejerking in your echo chamber.
What is it you think you're pointing to?
Is it the fact that historically there have been two types of vaccines but now there are four (mRNA and viral vector) and Health Canada hasn't updated this page?
Is it the fact that Health Canada recommends that you get your vaccines prior to pregnancy "However, if you are pregnant and need a vaccination, most are considered safe, such as the inactivated ones"?
I really don't get what you're trying to point out here?
If he means it hatefully as is implied by his comment then yes. Otherwise it's just a statement that any reasonable person would interpret as racist. Given that his comment is racist with or without the slur I don't see any reason to give him the benefit of the doubt.
I really don't see why you want to argue that his comment isn't racist.
In this particular instance no culture denounced the relationship. The comment was made by one particular person. That person is racist no matter what background he comes from. If you want to talk about broader attitudes toward relationships outside of the racial/ethnic group there are many societies where people are generally open to the idea and many societies where the idea is much more taboo.
My issue isn't with the culture of any broader society. It's with the culture of this particular site which has been pretty okay about expressing negative attitudes toward interracial couples and using racial slurs.
It's racist toward u/JiggsawCalrissian and the woman he's dating because they are having their relationship denounced because of their races.
I really don't get where you're trying to go with this line of questioning.
No, but I also don't think it matters. Denouncing interracial relationships is racist no matter what race you are.
I don't know what you're trying to say with this comment.
u/JiggsawCalrissian found a woman he likes. u/Tunawater then used a racial slur and denounced interracial relationships. If it's confusing to you why that's racist I don't know what to tell you. You can find someone who shares your values outside of your racial group.
Yes, lockdowns in the west have destroyed the economies of the developing world. I guess we have to end them or else we're being racist. Darn. I totally wanted to save Grandma too.
This here. This is what Hammy is complaining about.
They sure don't believe in fitness standards anymore
To be fair they were on camera. A lot of people would refuse to kick up a fuss in that situation. The real test of compliance happens when they are at home alone and the have to decide whether or not they can be bothered to walk their recycling down to the building's bins or if they just shove it down the trash chute with everything else.
Not that I'd know from experience or anything.
Texas and Florida were able to reopen because they achieved herd immunity due to a high number of cases early in the pandemic
Things like this point out the clown world of the pandemic response. These ideas were all covered in the original "flatten the curve" plan. Lockdowns were originally implemented under the explanation that they would prevent the hospitals from being overwhelmed but came at the expense of a longer pandemic. Now we're reaping what we've sown.
HONK! HONK!
I hear Justin Trudeau loves BBC. He was watching when Idris Elba gave his wife COVID.
If you're going to ban AZ vax after one shot there isn't much other choice is there?
Sure, there are a lot of criticisms against her and the WHO. It's the type of thing that should be subject to a public inquiry but never will be. If you think the smoking gun will be that you can't find a picture of her blowing out her candles on her 15th birthday I don't know what to tell you.
Now show the anti white racists
On this site?
So... LOL wait... so you get rid of the racist comments but then why save it and advertise it and keep it alive ?
Someone did just claim there were no racists on the board. It makes sense to want to preserve it somewhere if only to show people what ends up getting deleted. I still don't like the idea of posting it elsewhere to complain about the board he admins. If he hates this site so much he either needs to improve it by bringing in new users or he should quit. I don't know what he feels he gets out of running this site.
If you want some background on her life story I found a profile on her. Like the vast majority of government employees there's nothing about her story that's all that interesting. If you'd like to insist that she's a tranny spy in the pocket of the CCP though feel free.
To put aside the immature "Tam is a man" insinuations, what do you expect? She's a government bureaucrat. There was no reason to pay any attention to her until she reached her current position and even then nobody really cares about public health officers until there's a crisis. Think about it. How many employees can you name at any of the government agencies?
I wish I could move to Texas or Florida
At no point did I make an argument about definitions. I asked you to clarify what point you're trying to make with your post so that it would be possible to discuss it.
If you want to question the safety of the vaccine then go for it. The website you linked to doesn't help you make that point though. It contains some outdated information about the types of vaccines that exist and gives some generic advice about their use during pregnancy. I did my best to give you the benefit of the doubt but every chance you got you resorted to a personal attack rather then even attempt to create an argument based on factual merit.
