Tech Workers made a huge mistake being all Libertarian in the 80s and 90s. They should have formed an IT association with official licensing like the BAR/Teachers/Doctors/Florists, enforced by the State. And further got the Feds to pass a law saying only licensed, naturalized US Citizens can work on Government projects, not just Defense.

Sorry Ho Ming, you need a US Degree with an official Information Technology Guild approved certificate of competence!

In government, There’s literal buffoons that get appointed as department general managers and nothing can save your job if there’s an asshole that doesn’t like you, unless you have a strong union representing you.

Get rid of the unions, you can get rid of the asshole managers who aren't performing.

Trump needs to replace the token libby legislator with Darth Vader!

How dare her!

Cant we ignore all idiot teenagers?

At least a billion.

When the roadways are filled with rotting, steaming corpses, bursting with green purulence.

When somebody over 12 and under 65 that I know has it. Been through this crap already with SARS and Ebola.

Thought I just read something that no one under the age of 9 has died from it. It's strictly killing old people or the weak. I'm literally not even worried about this virus. Zero %.

It's big news because the Chinese fucked up and impeachment is over. Simple as that.

I'm already hiding in the kitchen pantry.

I look forward to seeing Republicans of integrity rejecting her message on the basis of age alone the way they did with Greta.

Notice it took the Hong Kong protests out of the news....

I already hate crowds; no sports events, concerts, etc for me.

I also avoid crummy “festivals”, e.g. “art and wine” etc.

Amazon sold out of face masks.

I'll probably get it from the health club.

not a republican, but i appreciate your acknowledgment of my integrity.

i did listen to a talk from this girl. "i dont want you to panic. i want you to think." enormous difference. this girl is calling for reason rather than hysteria. her message isnt a call to authority bias, like ignorant greta

We have no way to determine the number of cases.

Of a slightly more aggressive flu to geezers..... The horror!

I've sealed off my home and taken the preventative measure of burning all the houses in my town so no one is near me and I burn off any possibility of that Chinese Wuhan rubbish. I then sent my golden doodle out to maul any of the remaining survivors.

FYI, let me know when just 1 person dies in the USA at this point. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
(** if it is not obvious, my statement above is satire. Nothing is being burned and my golden doodle will only bit you if backed into a corner)

Done.

The budget Trump had put together was before the coronavirus outbreak. Trump has been known to change his mind when something new pops up, thus him asking congress for $2.5 billion to put towards covid-19 preparations.

I personally don't think it will do much, but hopefully we will have a vaccine by September.

I don’t need to convince you that there are low-bandwidth liberal deplorables. All rabidly hate Trump. Is the TDS strong enough for enough of them to vote for Bernie? Stay tuned.

So cute!!

We have to be careful this year. If Bernie gets the nomination, it's possible Republican Voters could believe Trump's re-election will be a slam dunk, and might not show up. The general election is a must-show event this year. Let's not allow four more years of prosperity go away. All hands on deck!

With any luck, Ivanka will have a greater role in the next administration. She's being groomed now for the future. Then we'll have our first Jewish Female President.

Restricting travel and quarantining are the best options, which Trump has already implemented. In the meantime, a vaccine is being worked on.

I hope not. Being the offspring or spouse of a successful office holder is not a qualification. We do not need "royalty" raised to rule because of pedigree over qualifications. No more Clinton, Bush, Obama, or Trump relatives , please.

Not worried about that.

At all.

I know alot of Conservatives in California who can't wait to vote for Trump this year, not that he has a prayer in California - but we want to goose the popular vote count.

I can't imagine Trump has lost many 2016 voters. I got to believe there are alot of people like me who were skeptical of him in 2016 and are very enthusiastic to vote for him in 2020. I will be even more motivated if they nominate a freak like Bernie or Warren.

I don’t listen to anyone who hasn’t raised kids and dealt with all the lives problems.

So yeah, absolutely don’t care. I think the target audience are very young people, not anyone on this board.

The fact that some in left took Greta seriously, just shows they are clueless overgrown manchildren.

Reviewing some posts and responses, Flavius is a real user in my opinion. Pretty sure it's a former user based on the format of the comments and then the responses. I actually liked their content in the past, but they have clearly taken a negative tone which is fine by me. Not gonna tell people how to think.

If my guess is correct, this user used to be prominent in the "what are you listening to tonight" thread or whatever the title is.

I despise Rush. The statement isn't that inaccurate though. It's killing old people. Which influenza, common colds and good old fashioned pneumonia are already doing at likely a greater clip than corona can. Try to reduce spreading it, don't travel if you don't have to and stay healthy. This isn't all that complicated.

I think its a Russian bot.

Heraclitusstudent says

I agree.

I'm still not convinced it's a bot. OP's are formatted the exact same way a previous user would for years that I think Patrick may have actually known. Can't remember the username though.

*the DNC compliant media.

Once Corona Virus hits SF, it'll be full of gasping GoogleBot technocrats being consumed by typhus and plague ridden homeless, with viagra intoxicated gays in open ass chaps sodomizing the corpses.

That'll make it a full on bug party.

Don't think so. IT does not respond to most stuff directly, which a user would do. I think that it is a mixture of a bot and real person.

I'm told by a certain genius it will be over in a couple of months. Nearly air tight containment in the USA. Don't worry be happy, Monday was a great time to buy into the market.
