Correct.
Also Bob Lazar who purports to have examined an alien craft and read US government briefing documents that described alien involvement in human affairs over the past 10,000 years. The guy and his family fully believe what they’re saying. So calm and believable. The documentary on him is mind blowing. They’re saying he’s not credible because he had a brush with the law. They would say that though.

I always remember a trip to Mexico, back in the day when you could still climb the Myan pyramids. I was really impressed by the knowledge of the tour guide, and his ability to switch between 7 or so different languages when answering questions. He explained about how the sun would line up once a year to create the body of a snake coming from a stone lions head. I asked him, what he believed had made this possible all those years ago, and he calmly told me he fully believed aliens came to earth to help them build these structures. I was taken aback by such a clever guy, with so much knowledge of the subject, happily discussing wee nen from space. I still wasn't arguing with him though.

Interesting research on exercise capacity in long Covid sufferers.

As a long covid sufferer, I would agree that that peak exercise aerobic capacity is very much reduced.
Just because people post things we, you, others may not like….it doesnt make them a troll

More wheels than sense
It's not that people don't like it , it's because it's complete nonsense and obviously nonsense at that .
I hope you are trolling for a lark because the alternative is just too funny.
Im not trolling or posting about the virus, just a comment about the poster……..and yes he/she is posting complete nonsense from many peoples point of view, but it doesnt make them a troll

To me, what he has been doing is the very definition of trolling…namely posting what he knows is utter nonsense to get a reaction
As defined in this context
Trolling is when someone posts or comments online to 'bait' people, which means deliberately provoking an argument or emotional reaction. In some cases they say things they don't even believe, just to cause drama.
And from the Forum rules
Ymmv although not sure how else trolling in the context of an online forum is defined, enlighten us?

- Trolling. Do not post in order to anger other members or intentionally cause negative reactions. For a given post, this can be a subjective call, but a pattern of such posting or an especially egregious case will get you temporarily excluded and/or banned.
