The rumors of my death have been mildly exagerated.
But my posting is severely limited.

Bottom line
Wear masks
Social distance
Use appropriate tests
Quarantine the infected
Contact trace and quarantine the infected
The more the virus is kept contained, the more the economy can be opened safely.

You are suffering from hindsight bias. You think that what we know now we knew then.
Here’s something I knew. (Posted March 4th, 2020 under the thread “Coronavirus”.)

TimB replied to the topic Albinism, CRISPR and evolution in the forum General Discussion 4 years, 3 months ago
Seems to me that, from what we can tell so far, we homo sapiens started out as dark skinned people from Africa. And then as they moved out of Africa, to environments that were different there were changes in morphology, including changes in melanin levels. (Plus having sex with other humanoids of the time, probably contributed to morphological c…[Read more]

The illogical “Ibelievinlogic” guy is haunted by a non-existent movement in the USA for “Communism”. He falsely equates Communism with what Bernie and AOC call Democratic Socialism.
Communists societies have tended to be autocratic, NOT Democratic.
That is what the illogic guy should be afraid of – AUTOCRACY.
Russia, for example, is no longer…[Read more]

I agree with that, Wid, to the extent that I think a lot of people consume crap conspiracy ideas as true, because it is fun for them.

“...police brutality and racial bias...”
About 1,000 civilians are killed each year by law-enforcement officers in the United States. By one estimate, Black men are 2.5 times more likely than white men to be killed by police during their lifetime1. And in another study, Black people who were…

TimB started the topic disappeared post? in the forum Issues & Complaints 4 years, 3 months ago
I just posted a response under Politics and the post by CC titled “The Debate”. It was 7 min. ago and it is counted as a reply but it is not registering. It had no links or pics. I posted it, and then tried to edit it, but when I submitted the edited version, it all disappeared.
It was a great post, IMO. A pity if it is lost.

Tim I’m counting on you to report on the debate.
You beat me to opening a thread on this.

So many American idiots think that we can open the economy without adequately suppressing the virus,
While this idiotic thinking, prolongs and supports the contagion, and thus makes trying to open the economy without addressing the virus properly, an exercise in deadly futility.
If the American idiots who are still promoting this dysfunctional…[Read more]

But just put it in your post, as I did the above, WITHOUT using the insert/edit link, please.
Then we can google that link.
I am amending my advice from my last post. Don’t put the link in EXACTLY as it is. Rather, leave one obvious extra space, as I did, this time, in typing out the link.

How about a meme for the opponents of BLM. If BLM demonstrators yell “No Justice, No peace!” Their opponents can shout:
“Tyranny! Not Justice!” or “We Want Tyranny!”

Oh darn.
The quote “Peace without justice is tyranny” – by William Allen White
is shorter, and therefore catchier, while still being an essentially similar message, hence it is superior to my:
“Peace without Justice is Successful Repression”
(In my hubris, I was proud for a moment of my “creativity”, but lo, all glory is fleeting.)

In every instance of mob complaints and street protests against bad Cops, the suspect was asking for it.
Breonna Taylor (only knew the suspect) and she was asleep when the cops broke in to her residence, firing their pistols like drunken monkeys and killing her (tho the vast majority of their shots missed her, six did not). So I don’t think she…[Read more]
