    Yep. A test of the response from China, undermining the Trump economy and totalitarian control.

    this has nothing to do with science...this is about the totalitarian takeover of the country...

    The comments on COVID are spot-on!
    Nonetheless I would like write about SYSTEMIC RACISM given the events in Louisville.

    If you ask me, a supposedly privileged white 'binary' male, I must concur that systematic racism absolutely does exist in this country however not in the way the mostly white 'poor little rich kids' attending "Ivy League" schools on mommy and daddy's dime are led to believe. These children posing as adults sit at rapt attention in their classrooms drooling over the mindless babble and maniacal rants of their so-called professors eschewing any notion of the Socratic concept of self-examination but voraciously devouring Marxist ideology as if it were gospel. I doubt that any one of these mind-numbed twits were made aware that Marx was a rabid racist!
    Yes, systematic racism exists as these ANTIFA types "graduate" from "esteemed" universities with no appreciable skills other than to paint signs an organize riots. To be fair, they actually have learned one other thing as they leave school, diploma in hand... they evolve into the role of the next generation of oppressors as they hide like kings and queens behind their castle keeps while their under-educated black pawns mindlessly fight to the death for them, more often than not, bearing the brunt of the punishment.
    Yes, systematic racism existed in the demented mind of fervent racist and eugenicist Margaret Sanger whose primary goal, in essence, was to thin the black heard. Hence her "Planned Parenthood" clinics curiously began popping up in primarily black communities. Go figure.
    Many years ago, black slaves were forbidden to learn to read and write! Is it any different today? Perhaps the tactics are a bit more subtle as while kids are being herded into failing schools are not forbidden to learn to read and write, they're simply not taught how! How slimy the left!
    (I'll write more later)

    Agree.

    He shows the US by Northeast, Southeast, West and Middle.

    Dangerous freedom over safe slavery.

    Region is ok. I just suspect that if the government stayed out of it, we would have been done with the virus by now, with essentially the SAME number of deaths, but with the economy essentially untouched.

    Worse! Much Worse! People even admit the Government is wrong/bad and want to put MORE power in it's hands.

    Truth clearly does not come from people who:
    1. are afraid
    2. benefit from others being afraid (e.g. media and election)
    3. already had a strong opinion.
    Gun control, nuclear power, environment, Corona response, are all in this category

    Can this discussion be found in print? I don't have the bandwidth data to do these video discussions on a satellite internet.

    Amen. I find the truth from those who could not care less about our presidential election. This report is consistent with the Swiss and others outside the US. Too bad Gov Bitchmer in Michigan refuses to embrace facts and clings to her political agenda. We are hurting in Michigan.

    Been done, was posted on here by FFA?

    The conclusion was- growth in cases is not related to level of lockdown.

    Cases- infections from tests (which are next to useless)
    There was in the data a slight increase of infections with level of lockdown.
    Statistically, not significant.
    From memory, they looked at trends not just numbers at the end of the study.

    The only conclusion that can be drawn was that the statement:
    lockdowns reduce infections- is not proven.

    I would have liked a comparison with whats happened in the USA states. If anything, I get that if you leave things alone, the infections spike and then quickly slow down on their own- and you still have an economy after the virus is done

    I consider myself an anti-Fauccist.

    Wow. Just noticed an alarming coincidence if one removes the "u" (and an extra "c"). Fauccist becomes Facist. Go figure.

    All my 20 thumbs up on this find Thor!
    I'm passing on to my entire mailing lists...and my dearly ("departed" from reality) present governor Tony Evers, who just reacted to the Casedemic with another mandate.

    CovidSense (n) - The ability to objectively review and understand information regarding epidemics, use sound judgement and act in a calm and sensible manner, avoiding irrational, fear-based behaviors.
    "Because he had CovidSense, FFA could see thorough the disruptive, alarmist media hype destroying the economy."
    Syn. "common sense"; Ant: "herd mentality", "Karen", "Fauccist"

    That would be an interesting phrase - and if we f we in the Gulch could not coin a meaning to it - an interesting assignment!

    We may need to coin the pun-phrase "CoronaSense", and assign an appropriate meaning to it.
