Maybe it is semantics then.
I accept that some sources are better than others and some people who claim to do their own research are really really dumb. But they'd still be doing dumb things even if they didn't claim to do their own research. Right? (I'm thinking of Kyrie Irving and the like.) So really you're just telling Kyrie Irving to shut up and listen to YOUR source, which for all we know is just as wrong as his. (See the video I posted in the other thread.) You'll never get through to him that way if your source is already on the record as being non-credible. He may be lazy. He may have a few screws loose. But he knows when someone is bullshitting him.

Viva lá France.

I don't understand what point you're trying to make, other than "I don't like people telling me what to do. Especially people who can claim authority through their credentials and experience, and those that trust their experience. Punk rock isn't dead!"

I think he’s making fun of the people who don’t trust the CDC, WHO, or epidemiologists but think Joe Rogan had interesting things to say about which strain of cannabis is most effective for treating Covid pneumonia.

Ugh what the hell is this nonsense? Just say "so there are a percentage of people who are adamant about not getting vaccinated, we gotta enact stronger measures to make sure they are". But "to piss them off"? Stupid posturing and needless antagonisation. Elon Musk-level rhetoric.

Geiginni is right though. You are not really saying anything beyond some experts are experter than others.
And we all agree on that.
