I'm not sure whether Fauci's virus then simply escaped the lab, or was deliberately released when the first impeachment attempt failed to remove Trump from office. The timing is very suspect.

Right.

I think sometime in Late February-Early March, the CCP and it's US Cronies decided that instead of downplaying COVID like they had been (Don't wear masks, that's anti-Asian racism; don't cut off travel to China; Visit Chinatown) they should amp it up. Deals were made so big pharma and Big Box/Big Tech stores would profit immensely by suppressing easy generic treatments and shutting down small retailers.

That's when the entire Media shifted from "COVID is no worse than the Flu" to "It's the second (actually third) coming of the Black Death"

When we remember the time after the 2nd impeachment failed, Leftists were beside themselves in ridding the country of Trump because of the amazing economy, peace, and prosperity, and no viable new "Scandal" to push after Russia Russia Russia failed for total lack of evidence.

"In a few months, it'll be like COVID never existed" - Trump in Fall 2020 (paraphrased)

Right, now that people are awakening to the fact that Fauci did this to us they need to play it down, quickly.

Disney, Universal, and Seaworld substantially cut back on mask requirements.

I don't think that's woof. His head is too large for that body. seems fake.

Also for old times, to channel G: His arm is at a crooked angle.

Talking the American public into not smoking has obviously caused the greatest increase in health ever. ------- giggles as he looks around at the healthy Americans

I wonder how many people gained years on their lives by avoiding obesity by smoking instead.

Lol, it's true that smokers tend to be thinner than non-smokers.

And nicotine seems to reduce the probability of getting Parkinson's disease.

But smoke is carcinogenic. Maybe nicotine gum should be unregulated and legal to buy without id. The prices are crazy. It's probably even more profitable than plain tobacco.

Everybody in Japan smokes, yet they have the longest life expectancy on the planet.

Oh definitely more profitable. It's the reason why vaping (which has never been shown to cause long term damage despite the best efforts of BigPharma, the FDA, and Tobacco Lobby) is frowned upon by Government, when it should be encouraged in bars (at least) to reduce smoking.

Britain does the literal exact opposite of the USA - you can vape in most bars. But then again, Britain doesn't farm tobacco and the NHS pays for treatment, so there's no incentive to do otherwise.

I'm looking forward to shopping at Trader Joe's without a mask.

Take pics/video. Maybe we'll see Karen Konfusion

"Wear ya mask"
"Are you vaxxed! I am! Did ya get the vax?"
"Just wear ya mask before you kill grandma!"
"Prove to me you've been vaxed!"

Lol, it would be fun to say "Just because you didn't get the vaccine doesn't mean I'm obligated to wear a mask around you."

But that would be dishonest. I'm never going to get that horrifying biological agent injected into me.

I think I'll just say nothing and smile.

The paradox of the Japanese having a long life expectancy (although they may smoke) might be the result of a couple of things.

1. The diet in Japan is healthy compared to the American diet.
I was in Japan for a couple of months and I ate out every meal. I lost a lot of weight.
2. Japanese society is competitive, but in another sense less stressful than some places because of customs.
It’s truly “civilized”, not rude. The language has polite forms. The rudest thing you can say in Japanese is “you look like a fool”.

My theory is more Japanese would die of heart disease because of smoking, but the lack of fats in the diet may slow down the clogging of the arteries damaged by the smoke.

I recommend people visit Japan, it has a lot of natural beauty and people are nice.

3. When somebody dies their relatives bury them w/o reporting to the authorities and keep collecting their pension for years or even decades. This is what the newly-elected mayor of Kyoto has discovered when he set upon visiting 10 (or 20) eldest residents of that city, famous for having the most residents over 100 y.o. Not a single one could be found. =))

Lol, that may explain Japanese "longevity".
