It’s just the flu, bro.

The left is using Wuhan Flu as a pretext for socialism. The mantra this time is “we must save people’s lives”. The most recent pretext for socialism before this one is global warming. With global warming the pretext is that “we must save the planet”. In either case, the validity of the pretext is irrelevant. What matters is the effectiveness at tugging at people‘s heartstrings.

With both Global warming and Wuhan flu the call is for massive government expenditures and increased control over people’s lives. The disaster with Wuhan flu is that people believe they are doing good by hiding in their homes or snitching on people who play at parks. This is the same idiotic mentality that people have when they think they can lower the sea levels using a paper grocery bag instead of a plastic grocery bag.

As you can see John Kerry is 100% correct - there are massive parallels between global warming and Wuhan Flu. Both are complete BS with a cure way worse than an exaggerated disease.

It needs to be stated again and again that a poor economy costs lives. A poor economy provides less money for medical research, less money for infrastructure safety, and less money for charities of all types.

And these “stimulus” packages cause higher deficits which threaten an all-out economic collapse....which would really cost a lot of lives.

If it saves just one life, it's worth it.
If 25 000 000 people lose their jobs, it's worth it if it saves just one life.
If the US economy crashes, it's worth it if it saves just one life.
If the entire world economy goes down, it's worth it if is saves just one life.
If tens of millions of people die because the world economy crashes, it's worth it if it saves just one life.

Oh, wait.

May God save us from GORE-BULL WORMING and every other Marxist globalist strategy to destroy our republic & our foundational Christian values in favor of a NWO Marxist globalist gulag of no freedoms & genocidal murder of 95% of the global population. Seriously.

If you missed yesterday's White House Coronavirus Task Force briefing it was a short one and no questions were taken. Here's a summary.

Now if we can just move quickly away from this still-growing "fascination" with wearing masks in public. If you're sick, whether you wear a mask or not stay home until you recover! If you're afraid you may catch the virus from a healthy person having no symptoms, stay home until ... I dunno ... until your governor tells you and, apparently as important, gives you their permission that it's safe to go outside without personal protective equipment.

Wearing masks in public (yeah, I am very aware of the specific situations where mask-wearing is necessary -- situations in which the mask is properly selected, applied, used and maintained) is not only dehumanizing, it's visually the stuff of nightmares: Groups of healthy people, walking around outside on a warm, beautiful spring day, with their faces hidden, carrying on muffled and mumbled conversations, breathing stale air for hours on end, avoiding at all costs coming anywhere near another human being ... and for what? So they can "feel good" about being "socially responsible" (while continuing to practice the 2-yard anti-social distancing which, by the way, is far more effective than mask-wearing in every respect) and that they are DOING SOMETHING to "combat the spread of the virus" which continues to run its normal course and continues to wane regardless of any additional overreaction we take.

I'll be so happy when this mask-wearing fiasco -- this incessant reminder that we're but one sneeze away from "certain death" -- comes to its long-overdue end!

It’s fitting that your threads are now a haven for anti-vaxxers and other erstwhile crackpots. What’s next, a discussion on the secret messages Deborah Birx sends with her scarf positions? How about the enormous legal pain Jeff Sessions is going to drop on various felons in government?
