Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.
Quote:The voters in some states, not all, gave it to the GOP. Until those particular voters stop giving the GOP power with their votes, the wealthy GOP "elite" will continue strangling and squeezing out money.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.
Quote:This is more than just rhetoric. On Wednesday, the Washington Post reported that while staunch Trump ally Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) “promptly” received all of the supplies he asked for from the federal government, states with Democratic governors such as Wisconsin, Illinois, and Massachusetts (not to mention New York and Michigan) were not having the same luck. It’s not clear that Trump’s political grudges are driving that disparity, but the Post reported some officials are “wondering whether politics is playing a role in the response.”

Nobody was worried about stray airplanes falling out of the sky by Kamikaze Muslims and hitting them in the head after 9/11. But people are so terrified of getting infected today that they're doing their church activities over Skype. Apples and Oranges. Do Right, Be Right. :)

Muslim terrorists obeying their brainwashing and willing to die for their "God" weren't 125 nanometers in diameter. Neither, of course, were the planes they were downing. Apples and Orange. Do Right, Be Right. :)Convince me you understand this story: Donald Trump Did Nothing to Stop the Export of Respirator Masks The 3M mask story keeps getting weirder, and neither 3M nor the Trump administration seems eager to provide details of exactly what their dispute is about. However, it’s been widely reported that 280 million masks were sold overseas in a single day from a single seller last month even though American health care workers were desperate for them. This number originates from a Forbes story by David DiSalvo, who spent a day in mid-March with a mask broker named Remington Schmidt: When contacting potential buyers, Remington needs two things to secure a deal with a seller: a letter of intent to purchase and proof of funds. “If you are working with a seller who has masks but you can’t quickly show proof of funds, someone else is going to buy them,” he told me. And I watched that happen repeatedly throughout the day. Buyers from state procurement departments and hospital systems expressed desperate need for masks, but the deals bogged down when it came to providing proof that they could commit and follow through. In the meantime, another buyer provided proof of funds and the masks were gone, sometimes within the hour. By the end of the day, roughly 280 million masks from warehouses around the U.S. had been purchased by foreign buyers and were earmarked to leave the country, according to the broker — and that was in one day. To his knowledge none of the masks had been purchased by buyers in the U.S. Halting these shipments didn’t require use of the Defense Procurement Act. It required two things: (a) an executive order banning the export of masks and (b) purchasing authority for FEMA to buy as many masks as it wants. These are things President Trump could have done two weeks ago with a stroke of his pen. No new legislative authority would have been required. 6ix, if you understand the story then you understand Trump is worthless as a President. Trump is arguing with 3M now to hide his negligence from last month. www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2020/04/donald-trump-did-nothing-to-stop-the-export-of-respirator-masks/ The Joss Whedon script for Serenity, where Wash lives, is Serenity-190pages.pdf at www.mediafire.com/folder/1uwh75oa407q8/Firefly

From your WaPo article: Quote:Expert panels have advised the government for at least 14 years that reusable masks were vital. Apparently it's too hard for you and the WaPo to understand what 14 years means. That means that it's also another failure of GWB's last two years of office, and all 8 hideous years of Obama's as well. Your TDS is gross.

And since it's a news source that both you and Kiki post all the time, I think you should both give it a serious read yourselves. Jeez. I read it. I understood it. Why do you think I posted it? I posted it because it was a more coherent version of what you've been trying to post. I posted it to show you that I DO understand your points. I just don't agree with you. Just because you "agree" with it doesn't make it right. Just because I disagree with it doesn't make it wrong. But you avoid discussing the topic in any real way. Every time you bring data to the board or make a point, IT'S WRONG. And I don't mean "a little" wrong", I mean A LOT wrong. Like comparing to-date Covid-19 deaths to annualized death rates for other diseases. Like comparing WORLDWIDE deaths to those just in America. Like posting against points that nobody made, or posting shit that contradicts itself from one sentence to the next. We can do point-by-point, but I'm sure not going to even try if you just go off and let your emotions run your brain. SIX, you're turning into SECOND. I know you're more intellignt than that.
