For those who are interested, here's a link to the full video where Scott said to the anti-vaxxers: "You win", along with my comment in response:

Thank you, Scott, immensely for your courage and your candor. It means more than you can possibly know for you to be willing to make this kind of public admission.

My only suggestions are that the UNvaxxed position was NEVER weak (2:22).

And this was NEVER a competition. We did our very best to warn as many people as we could because we knew what could happen ~ and, at this point, very few of us who are unvaxxed take any pleasure now in seeing what the vaxxed now have to live with. This can hardly be called a "win".

Exactly. We were desperately warning everyone.

Sad thing is, there are STILL people who say “Yes, I got vaccinated and I still got covid, but it could have been SO much worse”. And I have loved ones who got vaxxed and when they have the sniffles for a day or two, rush to get their nose swabbed to see if they ‘have covid’ or not.

Deep sigh………..We didn’t WANT to WIN. We just didn’t want them to lose.

It’s still a good start.

I don't take any pleasure from being un injected either. I did what I could to warn people.

So very true !!! Our hearts break as family and friends are now constantly ill or have passed away. Our warning to who would listen was out of concern and love. And Scott Thank You. 💕

I hope Scott truly received Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior before he died!

Not merely intellectually but from the heart, where is counts:

"... because if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9; English Standard Version).

And I hope one day soon you go learn from Paul Wallis intellectually and from your heart where it counts. A mind works best like a parachute when it's open. We come to planet earth to be the best version of ourselves so we and others can have wellbeing. That can ONLY occur when we become life long learners learning from the BEST human beings on the planet teaching us what we never learned so we can live our lives DIFFERENTLY serving HUMANITY instead of harming Humanity keeping them dumbed down and destroying lives in many different ways. I never followed Scott's work. I'm sorry he died so young when he had DECADES more he could have lived HEALTHY being the best version of himself he could be. We are " saved" when we transform ourselves into being the BEST version of a human being we can be. That's what " saves" us from harming others. And that occurs when we learn from a WIDE variety of other BEST beings from ALL walks of life throughout our life. I firmly believe Jesus is in the CATEGORY of BEST BEINGS to learn from and did NOT want to be worshipped but a role model to become like him, curious and superhuman, a superhero unlike many who become a supervillain destroying the lives of many.

A wonderful tribute to the world by a man of great courage... his voice will indeed be missed.

When he said, "If you're not following Viligiant Fox, you should be." I felt so smart because I already was.

Thank you for publishing this. I watched a couple of Scott Adams' coffee chats, knew of a couple of his books and of course, about Dilbert. I love it that his dedication was to being useful. He sounds like a wonderfully caring person.

Dave's avatar

Like all in his arena, they view the world in more practical ways and can call out the idiosyncrasies in humor. My favorite being the pointy haired boss.

I had "Real Coffee with Scott Adams " every morning faithfully. This morning was devastating but also a relief that he is out of pain. I'm a retired PICU RN and know the subtle signs of pain. I feel so privileged to have listened to him for so long and to hear that he did indeed give his soul to Christ. Fly with the angels, my brave friend ❤️

RIP Scott Adam’s. We lost a good man w a great mind.

I would not have seen this without your alert. Very special. Thanks for sharing. His referenced books address the background environment of insanity medical freedom fighters find ourselves in, so I ordered them:

Win Bigly: Persuasion in a World Where Facts Don't Matter

Loserthink: How Untrained Brains Are Ruining America

I pray Scott truly believed Jesus was his Lord and Savior and didn't just go through the motions. But who am I to judge? I pray he is being held in God's loving arms this very minute.

cynthia's avatar

And I pray everyone wakes up soon learning what they failed to learn so they can become the BEST version of themselves serving Humanity well instead of harming.

Dilbert first came onto my radar in the 90s. I could never have known then how much I'd come to miss that era; it seemed so simple compared to modern "progress." I remember being a young man then, chuckling at the cartoons posted on this or that cubicle wall or bulletin board at work.

I caught Scott's talks and remarks only in bits and pieces over recent years. From what I've gathered, he had the guts to speak frankly, and I have to admit respect for his unqualified admission of error on the jabs. He faced his end bravely, and that is also worthy of respect.

Dave's avatar

He faced it with grace and humility.

Scott Adams has died, yet people like Justin Trudeau, Jacinda Ardern, and Anthony Fauci still walk among us.

It's a funny old world.

Thank you, Mr Adams.

SH's avatar

Yeah, well I doubt they took the poison they wanted everyone else to take.

DrLatusDextro's avatar

Justin Trudeau, Jacinda Ardern, and Anthony Fauci, the figurative walking dead among us.

ShaJoy's avatar

May Scott’s soul rest in eternal peace.

Scott's comic Dilbert was endlessly hilarious and far far too close to the truth. Dogbert, Catbert and pointed haired guy were always must reads every day for me in the 90's. I pray his conversion to Christianity was genuine.

I’m so sad. I’ll miss him.
