AIDS, Covid, Fauci and the medical-industrial complex

Interesting article. I recommend reading it in full.  https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-vaxxing-anthony-fauci-and-aids/

Unz makes an offhand claim partway through that correlation does not imply causality. This is incorrect, however. Correlation certainly does IMPLY causality. It doesn't PROVE causality. But correlation is the classic case of where there's smoke, there's often a fire. It bears investigation to make sure that the correlation and causality relationship is correct. But you NEVER have causality WITHOUT correlation. Indeed, you have to have it. So correlation and causality are, not to be cute, themselves correlated. The maxim that correlation and causality are not the same thing isn't meant to be imply that correlation and causality aren't often linked, merely to be careful not to casually and incautiously assume that correlation is causality.

In any case, the lesson, as always, is that it's not just the news that's fake. Science and history are equally fake. A huge portion of the world, as we collectively believe it to be, is a hoax or a lie.
