Yes, thank you. Too many don't think about where their data comes from, how it's gathered, how it is presented, and how it gets twisted in so many ways.

With some noteworthy exceptions, due to that particular celebrity being especially stupid.

I think this would depend on the PR value of the player. We could imagine Lebron receiving a placebo, or simply never having got it at all except on paper. But Lebron has useful idiot value. A good portion of these athletes are just there to facilitate a particular kind of game at a particular level of skill, to facilitate the platform for the more famous useful idiots to become stars in the media. I mean, unless we're talking about real sports fans, how many people here could name all of the starting team members of Lebron's?

Most pro athletes are just livestock. Highly paid livestock, because the money is the trap, it's what gets all of the youngsters worshipping the slaves and the game.

Sure, a given athlete has some value to any team that owns him, but do I think all pro athletes were protected from the vaccine? I highly doubt it. There seems to be a situation in our whole commercial situation in the west where wealth has been so aggregated at this point (such low entropy in the whole system) that the larger entities can become 'loss leaders'. It's the only way to explain how so many companies have been making moves that obviously hurt their bottom line in the past few years. It's because they can take the loss, and they're probably hedging losses here against the future, investing in new currencies or foreign ventures, or, the organizations are simply being subverted from within by leadership, who, like politicians, spoke their way into positions of power just to run it all into the ground.
