How the fuck would they even know that. This thing is brand new. There are no lingering anything. Hell, the sample size isn't even large enough to make this assumption. Scare tactics, it's what they're best at.
The "Party of Science" is constantly doing this. There's a tiny possibility of something and they start using that as "evidence." Suddenly anecdotes are perfectly fine when it suits their needs.

So sick of it.

I want Twitter to burn to the ground. All of the Republican cucks who refuse to remove section 230 protections from these social media giants, they need to be primaried.

I’m completely banned for something that doesn’t violate any of their rules. It’s bullshit. They’re only allowing the democrat narrative to be voiced unless you have a blue check mark and a platform to fight back.
Good to see you man, I almost made a post the other day asking where you were.

No doubt these social media companies have way too much power. What good is the "that's not censorship, censorship is only when the government stops you!" argument when these companies are completely in bed with the government... or at least one half of it.

I don't think most democratic leaning folks hate America, in fact I think they love America
The average voter who doesn't keep up with things, yes.

But those at the top of that party do hate America as we know it. They hate having to get the approval of citizens every four years. They hate that a bunch of flyover country rubes stand in their way of complete control of everything.

I used to think talk like that was exaggerated, but now it's clear that it's 100% true.

Thanks, likewise.I’ve been incredibly busy, very lucky, not everyone in my industry can say the same.

I agree, obviously, social media has way too much influence, they’re media on steroids.

Ideally, both entities would be completely destroyed and replaced with a fairer system.

Have you been able to keep your restaurant open or are you having to just defy them?

We switched to take out only and outside dining months ago.

It’s just my wife and I pulling 12 hour days, but it is what it is.

Even when piece of shit(Newsom) ordered no outdoor dining, we kept doing it. We’ll continue to do it starting next week when they initiate the stay at home order and ban outdoor dining again.

I have a group of 8-10 sheriffs and a couple highway patrolmen who eat at our place 2 or so days a week. They always eat outside, they never wear masks Inside while ordering, so I’m going to keep doing what I’m doing.

If the County tries to fuck with us for anything, I’ll not comply. They’ll have to arrest me or board up my place. Until California wants to offer to pay my building rent and other obligations, they don’t have the right to take away my ability to pay those things.

By now I’d say 80-85% of the United States has gotten or been exposed to covid. There’s just no way to avoid it. You’re going to get it from a shopping cart, a tomato someone grabbed and put back, gas pump handle, MONEY, Amazon package, we’ve all mostly already have gotten it, or we’re about to.

Unless you stay home, alone, you’re going to get it. If you live with someone who goes out in public, you’re going to get it from them.

Everyone I know or have heard of locally that has gotten it, it’s mostly passed from family member to family member. There’s just no avoiding it.

At some point, you really have to ask the question. What exactly is all this for? Time to face facts. We’re all going to go through this and try to survive. It’s what we do with “life”, we struggle through it and try our best to survive it, ultimately you lose at “life”, you die, but you LIVE while you’re going through it.

The people in charge have forgotten that somehow.

As long as poor people vote with rich out of touch douchebags, like this ugly mfer, they’ll stay poor and dependent.

How anyone could be this out of touch is beyond me.

People aren’t anti-covid lockdown, they’re anti-losing everything they’ve worked their lives away for. This guy and his Hollywood and politically connected friends can take years off and never feel strapped or stressed about anything, other than maybe their social standing slipping a bit because they haven’t been relevant for that period of time.

People in the real world, who haven’t taken it up the ass from some high ranking executive in order to get your glamour shots and resume on the boss’s desk, we don’t have that privilege.

I am.

People losing their jobs and businesses are of course a very big deal.

But even if those things weren't happening, forced lockdowns are on their face a clear violation of our rights and illegitimate.
Yep fuck every one of the twats that are killing small businesses while letting Walmart/Sams/Costco operate as normal. This is just a deliberate push to kill the middle class and make them dependent on the govt
