Shh! Don't say it too loud! The thought police might be listening!
Imagine that... scripture being right all along!
Couldn't agree with you more!
When I hear someone say "I'm a Democrat" at church, I have to wonder if a) they believe scripture or b) don't know what the Democratic party platform is.
I genuinely cannot understand that dichotomy except in cases of extreme ignorance. I pray that it isn't willful, because if it is, then they're even more lost than I might've thought...
Any time someone describes themselves as an "educator," my opinion of them reduces even further.
Given the fact that education is populated by a vast swath of idiots, all of whom have political agendas, there is no more "education" in education that isn't brainwashing.
Honestly, at this point, I see nothing wrong with this.
When black people who want the government to follow the rule of law and to live in a prosperous, free country are being called "white," I think we know what Nobama really meant!
Damn. This hits close to home.
It's mind boggling when you consider that wanting a free country and a nation of laws that are upheld across the board means that you somehow deserve to be jailed and put on a watch list.
Next thing you know, saying "good morning" to a neighbor will get us shot for "suspicious activity."
You gotta admit though...
If there's one positive bit of fallout from this whole idiotic thing we've witnessed the last year (and some change) is that more and more people are waking up to the reality we find ourselves in.
I don't know what this means or where this is going to take us, but it's a positive development.
Nailed it.
A friend of mine has a SIL who is a (former?) missionary, and she insists that illegal immigration isn't bad because she's "seen the suffering" of these poor people, despite that fact that 99% of it is self-inflicted. She seems incapable of understand that if they're unable to fix their own shitholes, they have no right to come here.
Funny how they'll use the Bible to point out how we are obligated to help the poor while simultaneously ignoring Jesus' teachings on following the laws of the land in which you reside.
I'm really tired of Christians who only quote parts of the Bible that support their idiotic world views and ignore the rest, especially when they're arguing something boundlessly stupid without consideration for its implications.
And they're usually women who are letting their emotions dictate their politics.
TL;DR: The Spanish were the only ones with the cajones to report on it because the other powers were afraid that if it got out how many people were dying from influenza in the shitty conditions in the trenches, it might show weakness to their enemies who, simultaneously and unbeknownst to the other side, were suffering the same.
Really weird situation when you think about it.
The truth is more nuanced, I suspect.
Using myself as an anecdote: I don't wear a mask probably 90% of the time. I don't wear it to the post office, where there are signs mandating it, I don't wear it to most places.
I do wear it at the grocery store because I've run into a few Karen-esque wailing banshees who will happily yell at elderly men, invading their personal space (so much for their concern about spreading a virus to the infirm), and just make a complete idiot out of themselves. I hate shopping, so if it's one minor stupid thing I have to do to avoid the retards that will make an abysmal experience even worse, I'll do it to blend in. Except if I'm wearing one that has a naughty phrase on it.
Most of the people I know who wear masks do it to avoid being hassled. In my experience, if I'm gonna get harassed by a wailing Karen, calling her an idiot for believing Fauci isn't really going to win me any points with her to spread the truth, and the only people who will agree with me are the ones who already agree.
It really depends on my mood, tolerance threshold, and whether I really want to look for a fight that day.
Not only that but when his first link is to "fluoridefreepeel" you kind of have to assume that there's a reason he has to link to fringe sites to "prove" his claims.
I'm actually thinking he's a Chinese shill. The only reason someone would be focusing on a right-leaning site to coerce them into believing COVID doesn't exist is because the more people here who believe the conspiracy, the less pressure there is on China.
This is 100% a Chinese engineered virus.
I was originally opposed to the idea that it was engineered and inadvertently released before it was "ready."
But considering 3 separate teams from around the globe came to the same conclusion, namely that the spike proteins don't appear natural, and easy focusing on a different reason why, and each suggesting that this virus was absolutely engineered, and given the behavior we've witnessed...
...yeah, I'm going to say that a) it was/is a real virus and b) the Chinese are so inept and their QC so terrible that it escaped their lab.
Now, whether it was deliberately designed to be a weapon out the gates, I don't know. At least one of the Chinese virologists who was tied to Wuhan was fired from a Canadian lab because she was sending back data on Ebola vaccines (and others) to her Chinese handlers, so it seems plausible to me that SARS-CoV-2 might've been an engineering attempt to either produce a vaccine for Ebola or to tests such vaccines (hence the shared traits it has with the furin cleavage sites), but I think once they saw the potential at disrupting the entire world outside China, they ran with it.
There's a lot of strange stuff surrounding this, but I think the whole disinfo with "it's not a real virus" is a deliberate distraction to draw attention, ironically, away from China and focus on our own 3 letter agencies.
This is definitely China's doing. What and how much we might never know, but it's definitely China.
Yeah, it has, and I'm aware. I'm not aware of any forks that are current[1], but the problem is that uMatrix does a lot of things that other options (like NoScript) don't or can't. For instance, it gives you much finer granularity over what you can control (CSS, media, XHR, cookies, images, etc., all individually, all per-subdomain, etc).
[1] There are about 3 forks I could find and none of them have seen updates in the last 5 months.
The beauty with coming back to your reply 3 days too late is that we found out in the interim that Hunter Biden was actually smoking parmesan.
Man, I drop into a random TD thread on Crowder out of curiosity and see a load of shills like that Taxis and lmao all saying (roughly) the same things.
Though I was imagining it until I saw you and a few others sparring with them in the comments then realized that things were starting to look a bit like Reddit.
They must be bored over there given they banned us all. So they have to come here instead. LOL
Eventually the only "due diligence" the FBI will conduct is to look at the voter rolls. If there's an R next to someone's name, they'll preemptively arrest that person.
You know. Just in case.
Hell, I saw some idiots on some leftist site (Reddit? It was a screencap + link posted here) not only not refuting it but actively explaining it away as perfectly reasonable because of "all the expats living in China and diplomats."
Then someone from TD mentioned the fact that only UPS and FedEx are authorized couriers for diplomats which eliminates whatever plausibility there was in their story.
I love that they didn't bother refuting it, though. Instead, at most, it was basically "oh, that's normal."
You mean Democrats shit (or piss) where they eat?
Imagine my absolute shock. Shock!
"Oh no, Facebook was hacked."
five minutes later
"I better check my status."
This is why extensions like uMatrix have been so helpful. Globally block anything from *.facebook.com and their respective CDNs. Or, well, any third party sources you don't know or trust.
It isn't a foolproof solution but it will get you far above and beyond whatever everyone else is doing.
And they couldn't prove you were vaccinated anyway without some kind of national/global database, because even with an alleged 90%+ efficacy, there are still some people who are going to get sick.
So if you have a card and you "get sick," it doesn't mean anything. Genius!
I'm also really good at making methane.
What we're going to witness is whether that's true or not. If it's true, then amnesty fails or gets watered down to avoid stomping on their cheap labor.
If importing multi-generational communists who can't speak the language, hate the country, and will vote Democrat ad infinitum is more important, then amnesty passes.
If there's even a remote risk that Dominion might lose its foothold or if their objective is to permanently change key states blue (it is) then this will pass.
Yeah, the people he should be taking issue with are the self-described "liberals" that are actually Marxists hidden behind a thin veneer called "Democrat."
Interesting; thank you for the insight!
I'm not a biologist (I'm a programmer), but I have this morbid fascination with reading some of the publicly available research because I'm just brain damaged enough to find it interesting.
When I saw one paper claiming it was manufactured because of certain characteristics in the spike proteins, I dismissed it as a potential fluke. The second was of interest. The third was a matter of "Okay, now something interesting is happening." I'm not saying they're all correct, but there's a point in time where if enough independent groups are reaching similar conclusions (albeit IIRC one had a totally different rationale) it's worth paying careful attention to.
Obviously, as more biologists stick their necks out and stake a claim on China's involvement in potentially engineering the virus, I think it's worth paying heed.
