Yes, Jared solved the Middle East with one wave of his over-inflated ego, so this should be a piece of cake for him. :lol:

Questionable. The article you quoted doesn't support that unqualified assertion if you mean the extent of the pandemic: E.g: "Clearly, the U.S. govern...

We've got over the major hump though, which is convincing the vast majority of people that this is serious. And to the point where not taking it serio...

Trump spent about a third of February playing golf, a third at Mar a Lago, and the other third giving rallies. Yet it's the Chinese and the Dems' faul...

I also tried to explain that to nobeer by PM before he self-imploded.
April 03, 2020 at 19:04
So, your theory is there is a conspiracy to insist China is a race not a country in order that people don't believe the CCP is guilty of... something....

Well put, sir.
April 03, 2020 at 18:55
Sorry @"Shawn" that your thread got hijacked. Apparently, @"Michael" is dealing with it.
April 03, 2020 at 12:12
Cool, you can have nobeer then. *Washes hands*.

US had close to 1,000 deaths yesterday. That was a 20% increase on the total in one day.

OK, relax. I didn't intend to upset you. I still like Bernie, but in this case he did the wrong thing.

:clap: Put your attitude back in your pants. You don't own the point here. Yes, he obviously does, because he voted for the bill. There was no other r...
April 03, 2020 at 00:58
It's a little hyperbolic, but I take the attitude that you criticize decisions based on their content not who makes them. The bill is shit. Everyone w...
April 03, 2020 at 00:54
That's plausible. But he could have said: "And you should get the same."
April 03, 2020 at 00:52
You have to be willing to slay your political Gods when they make a bad decision, folks.
April 03, 2020 at 00:49
Of course he had a choice.

In Ireland by the way, anyone made unemployed by the pandemic is being given 5 grand over 12 weeks. No corporate pork attached.

I'll give you a concrete example. My sister and her husband are looking at probably three months of lockdown or semi-lockdown and no work. They live i...

"What we need is a revolution pragmatism." I'm still digging into the bill. But I really don't like what I see.

Given my experience, I presume it was because it was a random thought/question of no obvious philosophical import. But feel free to wait for a respons...

Not at all happy with that either. Needs to be investigated.
April 02, 2020 at 18:33
Oh, I'll take a look. Zizek, Chris Hedges, and Chomsky have all spoken on this. I'm on Chris Hedges now, which looks the most promising. I'll maybe li...

The reality is we need a combination of things to get back to full freedoms. But we need to err on the side of caution. Take the video above and multi...

Anyway, yes, I will support Trump whenever he does stuff I've been calling for him to do. Slow learning is better than no learning.
April 02, 2020 at 16:21
Here's what I want to see: Everyone getting a gas mask and it being made illegal not to wear one for a period of time, so we gradually wean ourselves ...
April 02, 2020 at 16:18
So, now that Trump has turned authoritarian, you're making a break with him?
April 02, 2020 at 16:14
I fully agree with this. Metaphorically, of course.
April 02, 2020 at 16:12
I make my predictions distinct from my comments on what measures should be taken. And Trump has eventually fallen into line behind the likes of me and...
April 02, 2020 at 16:04
Just to squash another lie.
April 02, 2020 at 16:01
Never forget that you are among those who opposed the measures that are now Americans' only hope of keeping the death toll under a million. Even Trump...

Touché, frank.

I apologise for befuddling, nobeer. I didn't have an evil plan in mind, but I'll try to be more restrained the next time. On this thread anyway.
April 02, 2020 at 13:28
Copied to mod thread for discussion. Now let's get back on topic.
April 02, 2020 at 12:21
Lol. You got a regular PM warning for using a term with xenophobic/racist connotations.
April 02, 2020 at 11:50
Can someone explain to @"Nobeernolife" what a strawman is? I don't feel the ROI potential is there.
April 02, 2020 at 11:40
@"StreetlightX" Hey, only 3,000 Americans died on 9/11. Fuck all compared to Vietnam. Weird why Americans got upset about it... :chin: No, can't under...
