      At what point do the conspiracy theorists realize that the virus is real and doesn't give a damn about our political process?

        AMEN. Amen.

        And the "woke" crowd think they're the ones who are "woke."

          I don't think anybody is disputing that the virus is real, but its impact has been wildly exaggerated. The community-at-risk can and should shelter-in-place, the rest of us should get on with our lives. And it's funny how some of the most outspoken virus alarmists are concurrently condoning and/or promoting the protests.

              Seems to be dependent on political affiliation. Many like, and welcome governmental control over their lives.

                I thought the point of the riots was to distract you from asking that question.

                  The virus is real, but the over-reaction to it was planned. Just like the reaction to the murder of George Floyd was planned. Look at the detailed documents that discuss the trade-offs between abolishing and defunding the police. That, and a host of other lucid sounding political changes that are being demanded.

                  Those documents were written well before the event that sparked the demonstrations. Just like Gate and Fauci et al planned out the response to the global pandemic, during event 201. Before the virus was declared a human to human contagion; after WHO and Fauci declared it not transmissible between humans...

                  For a trusted health authority to be this stupid means it is acting politically: https://www.theatlantic.com/health/a...-texas/611935/

                  Part of that plan is to cause food shortages. Coming soon, to a town near you. Just part of Ordo ab chao...

                    Let's add a little perspective.

                    This "Covid Wave" that we've been so desperate to "flatten" isn't much more than a pimple on the chart of normal deaths.

                    Remember, we get 60k deaths from all causes every week. 240k per month. Let's say covid adds 30k per month, total = 120k for the current covid season.

                    I've modeled the flattening and eventual downturn of the "curve" in my chart. The Summer will take care of this bug, it will eventually burn through our country much like it did in Italy and Sweden. It will run out of old & sick people to kill. The healthy and the young are mostly unaffected.

                    Remember, these things exacerbated the outbreak:
                    - The government spent millions encouraging hospitals to NOT care for the sick, but rather to allow them to deteriorate to the point where a ventilator was the only remaining option. $40k bonus for every patient on a vent.
                    - CDC admitted the covid deaths were over-counted by 25%
                    - CDC recommended putting sick people in nursing homes, were even the regular Flu kills many of the old & ill.

                    In reality the covid outbreak is totally on par with the regular flu. Subtract 25% right off the top. Then subtract some more for all those killed on purpose by CDC directives (half of the remaining dead? Who knows, pick a number.)

                    There was never a need to shut down. There was never a need for all the masks and distancing. There was never a need to do anything beyond issuing the normal PSA that comes out with the annual Flu: "Hey we have a bad flu season folks, stay home if you're sick..."

                        From the week of fake services and memorials for saint george, I would say they are caught up. Oh, wait, there are still many services and memorials not being allowed to happen because the virus knows the difference between virtue signalling and regular ole' grief for a loved one.

                            People that don't understand the big picture are either really stupid, or part of pushing the agenda.

                            Several caught on early, many woke up a little later... by now everyone is aware.

                            The ones trying to drag on a debate over this - fall into the first paragraph.

                              Isn't it infuriating? Absolutely infuriating. They are still doing the idiotic ridiculous mask BS at stores and shops, still placing restrictions on businesses (many still cannot open) and I still see people all the time walking around outside alone with a mask on. It's pure virtue signalling at this point. I see people at the beach frolicking in knee deep water with FRICKIN MASKS ON how stupid can people be???
