    It’s the government why would you have ever expected it would be efficient or effectively run?

    Neighbour just died from cancer at home. Diagnosed 4 weeks ago after a delay because they just tested him for covid which he had to wait a week to learn he didn’t have. Most treatment he got was an iv bag for hydration.

    Highly unlikely anything would have changed the outcome when a cancer patient is only weeks away from death

    I hope so. Still sad.

    There is a cure.

    Americans scream morality means whatever you want it to mean, but how many religions support homosexuality, pre-marital sex, drugs, abortion, murder, and theft?

    Only the fun ones.

    Quote where in the bible it says you shouldn't have sex before marriage, have an abortion or take drugs.

    Yahweh is cool with killing your children, he asks Abraham to kill his son. Seems like he'd be cool with abortion too. Why stop at one horrific act, might as well take em all.

    Even Jesus dying for our sins doesn't make any sense unless the God of Abraham accepts human sacrifices.

      None of this, including the lockdowns, was about covid.

      But muh second wave! They have been pushing to get way more tests performed, then the result of all those tests show a fuck ton of people have covid and then they freak out even though nobody is dying from it anymore.

      Kids don't have problems with covid but they spread it. Send one kid with covid to school and 100's of people get covid...

      Bullshit.

        Does this sound logical to you? A virus just infects kids and they neutralise it like some bloody industrial cleaner and don't infect anyone else only other kids for some weird reason? Really?

        Leprechauns also really sit at the end of a rainbow.

        There is a reason why in Europe now we have severe 2nd waves after reopening of schools.

          You seem to be easily triggered and upset by facts. Maybe you should get some tea and a cookie.

            You sound like a 13 year old. Congratulations on that.

            At the beginning of this year, I was pretty sure I was looking at the death of rationality. Now, 10 months later, I'm almost wholly convinced.

            I guess cause I live in Texas I didn't really experience much of a lockdown. You can go to the movies but they're just showing old films. That's about all I've lost. I do feel for all the employees, that has to be one of the hardest hit unskilled labor jobs. What do you do instead, wait tables, cook, work at a gas station? All seem a step down from working at a movie theater, which seems like it'd be a pretty cool job for a young person.

            Except for that whole thing where the governor was sending cops to arrest salon owners in Texas.

            And that whole thing where the governor left in place the administrative rules to arrest them, but chose not to enforce it after he got push back from ONE salon owner... But you know, next time..

            It isn't just what you can see, it's the fact that the groundwork was laid. After all, GWB said the patriot act is bad, but you know he'd never use it outside of its scope.. And we all know the patriot act or FISA courts have never been abused.

            Beyond the legislative aspect, the idea the govt gets to choose which businesses are essential or not should be extremely distressing.

            And if secession isn't in the back of your mind as a Texan, my guess the govt isn't the problem, the problem is you, and you've already lost. Don't worry though, the govt is gonna take care of you.
