Things that made you laugh today (Political Version)

[Solkern]

It's actually not at all, but you'll think it is.

And before you don't believe me...

If you don't realize it was all political, and a power grab by this point... not sure what to tell you.

Edit: Sorry, in one respect you are correct... situation is different than 2 years ago... people are living their lives and done being meek lapdogs who are fear mongered too... and those in power finally realized they pushed it as far as they could. Hence - Fauci's most recent proclamation that "it's now the individuals responsibility".... but of course you'll think it's because he has your well being in mind.

How can you tell me it’s the same? 2 years ago this was a new virus that we knew NOTHING about. Is the situation the same now? Or do we have 2+ years of experience dealing with it? Understanding it more? And have a better idea on how to treat it? Have multiple vaccines?

So yeah… it’s FAR different.

He's not talking about the virus itself, he's talking about the political manipulation of it.

Government responses to polio, measles, smallpox, all centering around isolation, mandatory vaccination, leading to eradication have been consistent with how Covid-19 was and is still being handled.

What's different is how the Republican party, led by its Conservative minority has tried their paint good governance to control a deadly virus as the federal government being out to get us. A government ran by Republicans was constantly at war with itself, Trump doing every damn thing he could to stop effective leadership by the FDA and CDC. Shaps talks about power grab, but doesn't bother to point out that it was his own party manipulating constituents to resist vaccinations which would save their lives. Glaring omission.

Just stick to wishing everyone you politically disagree with dead.. because that requires no "thinking" on your part... it's just a reflex.

Thanks, Ghoul.

Bro…have you kept up with how the lockdowns are going in Shanghai? People have been stuck in their residence for weeks. Millions of people are starving. That’s what happens when you give the state complete control to “protect” us. Covid-0 policies are a complete failure, as Australia and other nations have figured out.

Seran is a complete fucking idiot. Locking down HEALTHY PEOPLE who have had no known close contact with a sick person for weeks and MONTHS has NEVER been done before on a grand scale to contain a virus.

NEVER. I repeat for the slow ones named Seran and Bhaalizmo: N-E-V-E-R.

just because something has never been done before means it can and should never be done.

Reading comprehension! How does it work?!?!?!

Seran said this shit has been done before, except as you have implied it has not been done before. Are you disagreeing with your Lord and Savior Seran?

Do you get dumber with age, McGuvver?

Every devout follower of Charles Darwin is thrilled by the impact on mortality by those who make stupid decisions.

Others of us just enjoy the irony of deniers dying over the thing they denied.

FYI, that isn’t Darwinism either. Getting the virus and surviving without a vaccine is survival of the fittest.

This isn't China.
