The only president who has mentioned this problem is Donald Trump.

Yes, the rest of them and all of Congress are on China's payroll, via Wall Street. It was political corruption which sank the US.

There was a ton of money to be made by closing US factories and opening them in China instead. American consumers used to have savings which could be used to buy Chinese shit, so we just spent the last two decades impoverishing middle America and enriching the Middle Kingdom by moving all the factories and making ourselves dependent on China for just about everything.

This also explains the dramatic rise in imaginary "racism". This was the excuse for gutting the country to benefit the 1%. See, since all those impoverished workers are "racist", the elite didn't have to feel guilty about killing them by exporting their jobs and handing out fentanyl.

Anyone who accuses white people of "racism" is complicit in this treason. Sure, they make these accusations because of their own hatreds and insecurities, but it was funded and encouraged by Wall Street to squash any resistance to the profitable gutting of America.

Punch the next person you hear talking about how "racist" white people are. (First explain how their bogus accusations were used to kill the United States.) Also, we need to disband and burn down NPR, the NY Times, the SPLC, and all the other organizations that excused the gutting of America by yelling "racism" over and over for 20 years in order to help the globalists make us slaves of China.

Ohhhh Nooooo. We sent all of our manufacturing to China ! It's the libs people. They're knowingly murdering us all with their desire to HAVE everything manufactured in china !. And this all just happened in the past few years, which is why I only suddenly became obsessed with this message in the past couple years.

Quick, the obvious solution is more tax cuts for the wealthy !!

Anecdote for Patrick herewith:
10 years ago I was helping my parent who was very ill who lived in a quaint small town in Connecticut.
I was dating someone from a nearby town who was of a different religion.
She commented that my town was nice, but she thought it was too “white bread.”
I pulled the car to the side of the road and told her I was white and considered that an insult and would she like to walk or hitch hike home?

:
Yeah ! Right on brother ! Preach !

:
IT seems like the best cars, electronics, cameras and all kinds of things were made in other countries (not China) back in the 80 and 90s (some way before). Much of it was Japan.

How did the libs get away with it so well back then and for so long, but now the very smartest critical thinkers out there are finally calling those fucking libtards out on their anti-American treason ?

Absolutely!

It was nice of you to even give a warning.

We need to start getting very clear with anyone who spews bullshit charges of "racism".

:
If someone lives in a diverse area, and they visit an all white town, and make any observation about it being noticeable that it's all white, and that they are accustomed to and prefer more diversity, such as in NY, that's incredibly racist. You were right to be offended.

A white person being called "racist" is the same level of insult as a black person being called "nigger".

What would a black person do in that case?

That is exactly what a white person should do.

:
I think we're all racist.

I miss simpler times on Patrick.net, when we could all enjoy Patricks posts about black crime statistics, and how blacks really do commit more violent crime than white folks.

Patrick gets it. Being obsessed with spreading the truth isn't racism. I mean the topic might be race, and if someone feels that too many people aren't well enough informed about really true differences in races, that's not racism.

Wanting to think a lot about race doesn't make someone a racist. What if your main thought about race is how too many people are calling members of your own race racist ? That's certainly not racism. I don't know why some white folks aren't more obsessed with this. They must actually be the racists.

Here is a quiz- A single lily pad in the pond spawns a new lily every day and each spawned lily also gets to spawn a new lily everyday. It takes the 100 days to fill the whole pond. So how many days does it take to fill approximately 3-4% of the pond.

100 days to fill 1/1 of the pond
99 days to fill 1/2 the pond
98 days to fill 1/4 of the pond
97 days to fill 1/8 of the pond
96 days to fill 1/16 of the pond
95 days to fill 1/32 of the pond

1/32 = 3.125% so 95 days.

That must be a huge pond as well. In 100 days, there would be 2^100 lily pads which works out to 1.26765060023e30. The Earth only has 196,936,994 mi² of surface area, converting that to square feet is 196,936,994 5280 5280 = 5,490,288,293,529,600 square feet. even fitting 100 lilly pads in a square foot wouldn't be enough. Hell, I think if you ever had an organism that reproduced at 1 per day and didn't die off pretty quickly, you'd have a black hole in short order, regardless of the size.

@richwicks Somehow that comment got flagged, but not by any particular person. Might be a bug.

Did you post it while logged in, or like this? :

This whole thing has become a 'hail Mary' pass for the Democratic Party. Mt left Democrat co-workers become excited at the slightest suggestion that thing are o at least maybe better than we are being told.
I do not totally agree with this guy, but, he has an interesting view:
https://www.kitco.com/news/2020-03-25/Robert-Kiyosaki-says-self-isolation-is-making-people-realize-they-got-screwed-by-system.html
But this guy is worth reading; “The current coronavirus disease, Covid-19, has been called a once-in-a-century pandemic,” he says. “But it may also be a once-in-a-century evidence fiasco,” with policymakers relying on “meaningless” statistics based on unreliable samples":

If someone gives you one penny today, 2 pennies tomorrow, 4 pennies the following day and so on, how much money have you received have after 31 days ?

Do you think it's more than 50,000 dollars ?

More than 200,000 dollars ?

Calculator time 2^30 = ?

I think your math is off here. If you're trying to sum 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^2 + ... 2^30, The answer is: 2^31 - 1.

There's also a question of what "after 31 days" means. Does that mean you also get a payment of 2^31? If so then you're looking at 2^32 - 1.

Answers are in pennies, so, as you mentioned, divide by 100 to compare to dollars.

The Media be like:

What? You're talking like some of our Patnet drunks right now. That post was around noon central time too.

I get it's spring break or your job is shut down likely, but WTF was that comment? Seriously? It makes no sense... unless English isn't your first language.

People in Angola are simply disobeying the orders to stay home.

https://www.france24.com/en/20200405-better-die-of-this-disease-than-starve-angolans-defy-virus-lockdown

"How can anyone stay home without anything to eat?" asked Garcia Landu, a motorcycle taxi driver in the bustling Angolan seaside capital of Luanda.

He ventured out to try and earn a living, defying the government-ordered anti-coronavirus restrictions.

"We have responsibilities towards our families. We have to go out and get food," said Landu, sporting a helmet in the national red-and-black colours.

It's "better to die of this disease or a gunshot than to starve to death," he said. "To starve to death, I will never, ever accept that. I can't".

Days after the government declared a state of emergency and imposed restrictions on March 26, crowds continue to mass at markets, in front of shops or by water points in Luanda.

Under the restrictions, President Joao Lourenco has banned travel, meetings and public activities as the country reported 10 infections with two deaths.

The Muslims in Bradford actually inspired me; they got the British Government to back down on LGBTQ.

Imagine, imagine, if ordinary,non-pink haired or elderly hippies got mad enough to do things like picket while keeping their kids from school until the "Holy Expert Authorities" backed down.

Imagine California having to explain why the arrested 200 protesting small business owners after letting 1000s of criminals out on early release.

Imagine California having to explain why the arrested 200 protesting small business owners after letting 1000s of criminals out on early release.

California leaders will not have to explain anything. Business owners will disperse as soon as the cuff/fines come out. Remember, this California government is in power without having to "explain" the excess homeless numbers, the feces everywhere, and the total lack of immigration enforcement.
