Yeah I think any time multiple people are “making up” the exact same thing, you might wanna check it out
I wouldn’t apply that logic to everything. millions of people claiming the same thing can still be wrong.
But a group of people in the exact same situation dealing with the exact same person? I wouldn't place trust in flat earthers, despite millions claiming it's true, because they are in different situations in different countries. But this is about multiple dementia patients in the same nursing home making the same claim about the same nursing staff. That's different.
I don't think they're saying that multiple claims are necessarily right, just that they can warrant looking into.
He’s not saying to agree with it, he’s saying to check it out.
Sometimes you check something out and it’s bullshit.
Did you know you swallow an average of eight spiders in your sleep every night?
Spiders Georg was an outlier and shouldn't have been counted.
As long as they’re not hurting me, which I don’t think they are, it just sounds like free protein to me.
Yeah they’re keeping my belly full so I can sleep Longer
Nah that's a myth. It's actually 8 door hinges a year.
~ Covid? What Covid?
/s, in case that wasn't exactly clear. Fuck Anti-Vaxxers.
antivaxxers didn't deserve trust despite their large numbers because they were all in different situations. different states, different incomes, different locations, etc. the only thing similar among all anti-vaxxers is that they didn't trust vaccines.
this is not the same situation as anti-vaxxers, where multiple dementia patients are in the exact same location dealing with the exact same person. that's what lends credence in numbers, not the numbers inherently
ah, you've met trump supporters
I’ve met a lot of people, some of whom I work with, who all make the same egregious claims of demonstrable nonsense. About a great many things. And yet get very upset and defensive when you suggest that maybe bringing your 3 year old girl to get her spine adjusted by a crackpot isn’t the best idea. And yet, it’s all covered under our benefits plan. everything from chiro to reflexology to naturopathy. but eyes, teeth, and prescriptions have all these restrictions on it.

Witch burnings are coming back.
I'm not sure that's a great measure unless they're never able to interact with each other.
