Reminds me of a passage from  Steinbecks’s “The Grapes of Wrath.” I found this very insightful when I first read it.

“Some of the owner men were kind because they hated what they had to do, and some of them were angry because they hated to be cruel, and some of them were cold because they had long ago found that one could not be an owner unless on…

It would seem to me that the medical professionals (mostly well educated jobs) dealing directly with sick people would be at the highest risk as far as the essential personnel still going to work. That’s not to take anything away from the grocery store workers in any way, but if you had to choose…

Densely populated areas are hit the worst,…[Read more]

This guy shouldn’t worry too much about this specific issue. Any states that insist on having primaries will likely see an uptick in cases, and I’m sure plenty of whites will also catch the virus and die. Say what you will about the coronavirus, but I don’t think it’s racist. It’s been visiting a variety of cultures all over the world and seems to…[Read more]

As long as he’s consistent I respect it because he has a point.

Some see this as a necessary comprise under the circumstances. Others see it as capitulation, an act of cowardice under the circumstances. Both views have merit, imo.

Tulsi voted for the covid stimulus too. Has JD been ripping into her?

Maybe unloading on Biden would have backfired, but not unloading on Biden definitely did backfire.

The worst thing you can possibly do is accept that their argument is being made in good faith and then go on to meekly apologize or disavow. By admitting guilt you are legitimizing their false narrative and falling right into the trap. All you’ve done is concede that there’s an issue on your end, and that their abusive tactics…[Read more]

@maedhros Might be referring to her appearance on “The View.” It’s a stretch to call it a “collaboration,” but she certainly didn’t push back on the narrative. To be fair, neither did Sanders. It’s a fairly ambiguous political response which can have different interpretations, imo.

Uk has the NHS and is still having problems, so even with universal healthcare, you still have to take early action. Once it’s out there though, countries with universal healthcare are in a better position to deal with it. Our system in the US operates in a way that is fundamentally at odds with with what needs to be done. I read that NYC have…[Read more]

There are too many unknowns for this to have much validity. But I had never heard of John Burns Murdoch before so mission accomplished, I guess. Personally, I’m going to be patient and wait for complete statistics rather than scattered data pieced together leading to a bunch of dubious assumptions, before trying to attempt to see into the…[Read more]

I’d be outright shocked if we used any such thing here. The American way is to give the project to a well connected contracting firm, and the building will cost $500 million and take six months to build.

While she has some economic populist tendencies, she’s concentrating the bulk of her power on being a cultural left icon.

That was my initial read on her, but I hoped to be wrong. Of course, I still might be and it wouldn’t be the first time. It will all boil down to whether or not the DNC tries to primary her or eliminate her district. That will…[Read more]

They’re like 12 year olds crushing on a new love interest every two weeks.Beto, Kamala, Stacey Abrams, Warren, and many others all had their five minutes. And then they end up going with a senile old man who hasn’t left his basement in weeks.

Remember when Avenatti was going to take down Trump and lead us all into the promised land? Ha!

The thing with JD is he never seems to give Sanders any credit. There’s a clear bias; it’s all negativity all the time. Some of his critiques have been fair, while others have been less than objective, making it seem like he has a personal grudge against Bernie. He can be quite the hypocrite at times because he demands nothing short of perfection…[Read more]

Plus, there was nothing stopping the governor’s of blue states from taking steps earlier than they did. And there was nothing stopping the Democrat controlled house taking action earlier either. They all acted too late, and they all knew this was coming, but just decided to hope for the best. It was a failure across the board with Trump being but…[Read more]

Should be an interesting case study on how well anabolic steroid users deal with the virus.

Selling out starts with small compromises and goes from there.

I assume she probably will sell out and make peace with the dem establishment only because she’s human and that’s how it goes with most people in the end. Sanders, even with his flaws, is a very rare exception to the norm. The story of the young idealist who ascends to a prominent…[Read more]

“We have from the beginning decided we are going to do this not for profit so that the vaccine becomes affordable and available on a global scale as quickly as possible,”

Public relations chooses their words carefully. There’s more than a little subjectivity in how one defines “affordable.” Affordable? According to and relative to who…[Read more]

See, here is the thing – if you are speaking of the video (I assume you watched it?) then what the Doctor is saying isn’t wild speculation. It is speculation – it is estimation and guess, based on currently available facts. His thoughts on the increasing deaths and such are no more dramatic than what is now being widely announced on the main strea…
