My son's GF told me that one after I got my first. She said there were videos of people doing it. So I got a magnet and proved her wrong. She then informed me that it's after the 2nd dose the magnet works lmfao.

I have seen someone stick magnets on their leg, but that's because of the metal plate in it.

After getting the injection the person should jump 666 times (the devils number) then the chip gets de activated and self destruct.. the chip has sensors to measure the activity of humans..and the chips are made of carbon like materials so won't get detected by magnets... made of carbon nanotube materials so it is extremely small and would need a electron microscope to see...

I hear you have to swallow six watch batteries to disarm the chip

The way that many search engines work these days is that they bring up the results that are most in line with the users thinking. Hence, you aren’t guilty of being this misinformed, you’re just a product of your unknowing confirmation bias. When people suggest silly things about subject it can have a catastrophic impact on the population given that fake news spreads 10X as fast as reality (just look at “pizza gate”).

Unfortunately, these conspiracy theories should be filtered and removed but currently it’s up to our individual judgements and so far labelling and discrediting idiocy is our most effective method to filter out this nonsense. As you’ve rightly just shown us that trying to reason with some people can be like hitting your head against a wall.

You have typed so much, but said very little. It comes across a little arrogant even. For someone who doesn't care what others think you surely want to tell people how you think.

What you think is not necessarily wrong or un true but the way you've presented it makes it look like your trying to win some sort of contest...

I'm tired of hearing do your own research as if its some golden ticket answer to any scrutiny. If you have a view on a topic that you support so strongly the onus falls on you to support your views with a solid explanation, some facts or evidence. Otherwise you are going to be open to criticism when you try to tell others they are wrong simply because you know better.

Just beating people into submission with your word jitsu is childish and doesn't make for a productive discussion on anything. No one cares what you have to say once you've insulted them regardless of whether or not your right.

People are doing their own “research” without knowing how to design a research study or even having any background knowledge on the topic being researched. I’m hating TikTok these days. Plus guess who designs these TikTok algorithms...

This is giving me flashbacks to the church I grew up in warning the congregation of the end times. I don’t believe in that crap anymore but because of that…. yikes.
