One has to realize that truth is not a value for a significant percentage of people.

This makes no sense. Why would the DNC surrender to the progressives, when they've been fighting a bitter power struggle all this time? Since when did the Ds started to hate power?

I bet his thinking there "I still have that contingency plan, you stupid tv entertainer, just wait for it" :D That didn't pan out as expected :D

Honest question, as I haven't been following these kind of stories. What does the term "grooming gang" actually mean? Is it the same as human trafficking? They kidnap the people and threaten them? Can someone share some explanation?

True. There was a time where people where literally smuggling translated Bible editions.

For the left, religion is a huge anti-progressive pillar. Their hate is real.

POTUS has (wisely) gone with the current and subverted the opposition instead of trying to fight incessant fear-mongering with logic. He can't just do a 180 turn now.

But the thing is that it is legal. The President has full authority once the states declare a state of emergency. Pence clarified it in a way that most of us had to use the dictionary to see what he said :D It was sticky here for a little while the day that thing went down ("reporters" where asking the President about it, in their usual shitty way).

That's how the country works in the state of emergency. Or perhaps you want him to give away the powers of the Presidency? Why bother having a MAGA President then?

"Study finds hydroxychloroquine linked to increased risk of death."

Whenever you see the word "linked", run, run far away. Linked basically means "we run a correlation but we have no idea about anything else", i.e. has the same weight as the correlation between "Internet Explorer market share and the number of murders in the country".

If I was a defenseless person with no outside support in case of need, I'd absolutely like to have cameras to keep the bad apples at bay.

So, it's a different thing to be allowed to have the option and to outright ban the option of security. Being able to trade is also part of freedom.

Damn, I was late. Hoping for a link after the live is over :D

Edit: This link should work, now that I think about it.

People have simply replaced "the priest" with "the expert". There's no reasoning process, it's just that they need an "authority" to tell them what they want to hear.

There's a difference between voicing an opinion and being right. If it doesn't matter to you personally how you validate your opinions but you're content with adopting whatever rises up in your mind, what does it say about yourself?

I have an opinion. You disagree. Fucking deal with it.

I did deal with it. By exposing it as nonsense. Are you have trouble dealing with my opinion then?

What universe are you living in where only "experts" are allowed to voice an opinion?

If I wanted that, I'd tell you to stfu - which I didn't. What I did tell you is that is insane to have an opinion on something that you have no idea about, since you simply can't make any reasonable deductions. And if making deductions is impossible, what validates your opinion? Feelings?

Are you saying we all need to shut the fuck up about the Wuhan virus?

See point above. If your view on Wuhan virus comes from tossing a coin, I don't mind because you just happened to be lucky in that coin specific coin toss and why would I mind people cheering for the correct thing? But is this how you aim to live your life? Mindlessly tossing coins on every subject that you happen to take an interest in?

Yes, let's have a backdoor on everyone's phones for the government, because "they're here to help" and they make their decisions for the people's sake, as we are well aware of in this community.
