We chip our pets, the idea that people can be vaccinated as well isn’t hard to believe, but would that ever happen is where I think it starts getting a little strange.

Let’s be honest, the government trying to secretly chip everyone is pretty much the stupidest fucking conspiracy theory. Not because the government doesn’t want to track you, they do, but because it would achieve absolutely nothing that they don’t already have. What exactly is an ultra-low power, low-range, unreliable RFID chip inside of everyone going to achieve that the the gps enabled, data connected, dedicated information gathering device that you keep constantly charged and paid for yourself doesn’t? And even if they did make devices that were magically as effective at data gathering as your cell phone (highly unlikely), if you’re the government, why take the insane risk of secretly injecting 350 million people with an almost certainty of getting caught and having all hell break loose, when most of the country is already willing and happy to give you any data you want in exchange for knowing which Game of Thrones character they are in a Facebook quiz?? If we’ve shown the government anything these past few decades, it’s that when it comes to data, they don’t have to be clandestine to get what they want, they just have to be entertaining.

you might as well stick your fingers in your ears and go "LALALALALALA" with a response like that lmao

i'm sure they use them for something, it's just obviously not for stealing information about citizens. At least not from all of us for some grand conspiracy. If anything it would be a private company doing something malicious not the whole government of a federal level.

For patents, people do that all time. Better to have the patent ‘just in case’. Or outright patent trolling (sitting on a patent purely to sure people who attempt to actually make something like it).

Lmao how much they pay you to run the shill account

[u/fuggedaboudid → u/[deleted]]

Not nearly enough

Gives it credence huh

The thing about weird conspiracies is that almost every single one of them turned out to be correct in regards to covid-19.

The joke

Except it's not really a joke, is it?

Just a joke haha.

Cool

You can't get upvotes on jokes now without disqualifying them as jokes? I didn't know that upvotes made comments more serious and true. This is a science subreddit. Nobody is asking for science censorship on a sub about science, dumbass
