That was possibly the most disturbing part of the pandemic... People in ICUs about to be intubated, insisting that COVID was a hoax with their last words.

That sort of purposeful disinformation crosses the line into having been weaponized for the purpose of tearing the fabric of society apart -- even worse still is the fact that education has been eviscerated so much over the past 50+ years that such a large percentage of people will fall for it.

Ottawa chatrooms:

Please note the following:

* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.

* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.

* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.
