But what compromise do you think they should look for? Can't even seem to get the magas to wear a fucking mask? I'm all eyes for something you think might have been a reasonable compromise given their dear leader was saying it was a hoax and no one taking it seriously.

I'm not happy about people losing their livelihood (unless it's a couple of people in this thread), but while you can go on and on about the mortality statistics, in the beginning there was very little info and a president that was simply a stupid twat and not providing leadership.

Veddy well said, Oz.

Now here's the facts the leader of the Michigan Coup spoke out against Trump, this is what we call facts you "wannabe" veteran. Sgt LOL, real men serve in the military, you are not a real man haha. Here's the link:

FYI, most Alt-Right, white supremacist-extremist groups are Trump supporters. Trump is clearly responsible for promoting hate and speaking in "code" to these extremist right wing militia groups. The group of 13 that had Social media accounts and plotted to kidnap Michigan's governor were itching to incite a 'civil war' and were also a hive of pro-Trump, pro-gun and anti-government types. When the FBI went to their homes, they found Trump paraphernalia, stickers plastered all over their vans. Trump has called on these extremists to go out and oversee the polls on election day-which is a call to intimidate voters with their armed weapons. As David Duke said, and it's been echoed by "Proud Boys", we have "our man" in the WH. Trump for his part has rarely called them out, they are his base. Both extremist right/left wing militia groups are a clear and present danger to this country, Trump too for his disgusting racist hate mongering and aligning himself with these violent right wing groups and also his blatant dog whistle calls. Gov. Witmer was only one on their long, enemy hit list.

O.

.

Show me one example of how I'm at that freaks throat? You can't. You placed my name in there for the sole purpose that I've called you out for being an 'useful idiot' tho I didn't use that term. You claimed the 100,000's protesting over summer did nothing to spread China Virus. I linked the paper you cited as proof, one written by economists not epidemiologists, asked you to explain how economists can make that claim. You couldn't with any veracity. That's an useful idiot move. All you did was to repeat CNN / NYT / MSNBC mantra. Close down schools, businesses, weddings and funerals to contain spread but allow mass gatherings because they're protests and protests don't spread the virus.

You called a 16 yo Catholic school kid a 'douche. ' You knew nothing of the kid other than what CNN / NYT / MSNBC told you to think. They told you to think he was a douche and you did. Why? Because you're an useful idiot.

You called out someone for cheering the demise of RBG asking them if they knew her personally or did they dislike her because others told them to dislike her. RBG has a long public record that one can base an opinion on pro or con. The 16 yo boy you called a douche didn't have a public record. You knew nothing of him, didn't even know his name or the fact that he had reached a reported seven figure out of court settlement with one of the media outlets that use you as their useful idiot and that his atty has filed suit against five more media outlets who also use you as their useful idiot.

You need to stop projecting, you useful idiot.

Here's what I see, looking at this are&are subforum, social media, the media in general: two very polarized camps, publicly at odds with one another, while a very tiny silent group of people chuckle, high-five one another, take a drag on their cigars, and rake in ALL the chips.

Example - And forgive me for choosing names, it's just random, and to illustrate a point. - take Techsticles and Aaron Hamlet. It's hard to find to folks more at one another's throats, at least here in the are&are. Yet. And I may be mistaken, though I don't think I am. If they were actually present in the same room, like they're at a coffee, or happen to chat while in line at Hattie B's. Would probably basically get along. A couple of guys, both American, both living in Atlanta, and with at least some overlap in hobbies. Maybe they're both golfers, drive late-model cars, own houses.

The truth is, ideologically, these two men are probably basically pretty similar. They both think folks should be healthy. They want cities and communities to function and prosper. They want to catch bad guys if they're out there, and protect kids. They'd both help an old lady take her groceries out to the car.

And YET, through the power of content management, "they" (I'll go ahead and use conspiratorial quotes) have managed to drive an absolute ideological wedge between the two. What's up with that?

And I confess, I fall into "the trap" at times myself (my worst lately is on the gun forums I'm active in. I'm a firearms enthusiast who happens to be liberal. And lets just say I've wisely deleted a few things I was about to post!

Here's a mental discipline I've been practicing lately: when I KNOW something to be the case, when I am CONVINCED (like Trump is a criminal, or cops are racist, or whatever), I STOP and realize that, very likely, someone has, through manipulating content, guided me to that realization.

In the modern, complex world, you should NEVER be *certain*. I'm sure I'm not the only business owner here, but I am always worried and second-guessing myself in business, because the stakes are high and information is imperfect and it is APPROPRIATE to be UNCERTAIN. You have to remain flexible and able to change your position in an instant. The same should hold true of politics: if you are wholly loyal to a party or ideology, you are *doing it wrong*.

Authority must be held accountable, always. Practical skepticism: practice it.

That Libtard you hate? That Trumptard who is such a moron? You think that because someone WANTS you to, and you are useful to them!

O.

ps. Pardon the fucked up formatting and sentence fragments in this post, and things like "are&are" (which was supposed to be the letter "R" and the letter "R" for "rants and raves" ), but this forum has so many stupid formatting rules which butcher normal, correct composition.

Ha. Go hug your shadow box, sarge. Besides being a cult follower, I'm sure that's pretty much all that you believe makes you special.

I get that you don't read and have no comprehension. Just keep watching faux news dipshit. I'm not here to educate you rightard cucks since you're way too stupid for that. I'm just here to laugh and ridicule you.

Just wait until after drumpf loses. I'm going to have a wonderful time in here.

Strange that it didn't make me a stupid twat like you that tells anyone not agreeing with me they should join up. Why is that? I mean, I can see why you'd love it. You enjoy being told what should do or think.

I've also noticed you really seem to care about other people agreeing with you via PM. That appears to be a rightard trait. Can't seem to do shit or think on your own.

Anyway, go back to fucking off. Maybe at a dipshit-drumpf rally. Hug those fatties, general!. LOL.

Now you will reply that Trump did not serve. Trumps not a republican any more than Sanders is a democrat, they needed to run on a major party ticket to get elected. So back to Conservatives and Republicans we are the ones working and keeping this country going while you guys run around Burning and looting, just saying I am getting more and more private messages from people who are tired of hearing your pathetic rants, and yes you both are pathetic LOL. Go cry to your mommy's about how much you hate trump because honestly they are the only ones who care about your liberal feelings.

And burning, looting destroying businesses and jobs, Boeing pulled production out of Seattle, are those from the so called left. The mayors and the governors from the so called left ban gatherings, church, wedding, funerals,etc but allow tens of thousands to gather and 'protest,' spread cases, then enact stricter lockdowns on peaceful law abiding citizens and their businesses. But those exercising their first amend rights and bothering no one, the MAGA hat wearers are assholes? Laughing my fucking ass off. You motherfuckers are so brainwashed you can't tie your shoes w/o checking with NYT or CNN first.
