If there was a (D) in the White House or if this wasn’t an election year, we would have followed Sweden’s example.

The July jobs numbers came out. And voila, the push to cancel everything because of COVID has kicked into high gear. Next up will be the stories about how, suddenly, every child who has so much as a skinned knee is a Covid case.
But looting and rioting in our cities is A-OK.
School or a football game? Not so much. Thats dangerous!

I’ve never understood why communism is “good in theory.” That’s something that semi-educated people say to try to sound smarter. If a theory fails 100% of the time, it’s not good. It’s bad. It’s invalid.

We quarantined WELL PEOPLE. That was the mistake and that's why we're having the second wave. Nothing to do with masks and/or social distancing. All these folks that are getting it now would have had it months ago and we'd be over this.
Fauci and his brilliant strategies caused this second wave...and he knows it.
To: Kaslin
Given that 70 percent of those who died with COVID were over the age of 80 and very unhealthy, he argues, quite a few of those 6,000 would have died this year anyway, making COVID a mere blip in terms of its effect on mortality. Old, sick people were dying in retirement homes. And people panicked. Like no one had ever died in a nursing home before.

At this point, we’re barking at the moon. The bulk of the non-critical thinking public believe that we are up against the black death and not much of anything will sway the maskers away from the propaganda. We are fully into the year of living stupid.

Good point. “Free trade” is another “good in theory” pile of manure.

Old, sick people were dying in retirement homes. And people panicked. It's possible, although I have no direct evidence, jjust circumstantial, that nursing homes were seeded in some states. Besides Cuomo and other D governors sending positive people in. Earlier than that.

I get a double j sometimes, not sure why. Just just just sometimes, but not this time.

Yep. The lockdown was a logical step when we thought we might have a SARS situation. We dont.

This lockdown and closing of the country only had two objectives from the beginning, keep Joe Biden in the Basement and out of the Public, and Stop Donald Trump Rallies.

A nearby nursing home had a recent outbreak. Three staff members went to Myrtle Beach and came back with Covid. They went to work sick and infected 60 people.
You can’t fix stupid.

It was Trump's call. He bought the fake projections being peddled by Fauci and Birx. As an astute FReeper noted his inner germophobe got the best of him. It's a mistake I'm sure he wouldn't repeat.
