I'll let another moderator take care of this. I'm not certain what in my comment was personal or should have been flagged. At some point the poster of a topic is the topic when they blatantly contradict themselves. Note I have not addressed a user in this comment.

I hope you're posting this in jest? While it is funny admittedly, if this virus is the real deal, this has nothing to do with politics. You may not be doing this, but not sure why people are trying to politicize this when it's sooooooooo "serious" and deadly. Makes one wonder....

That's a nasty question. You're very nasty. I've always said this was a giant hoax, that we should take very seriously.

No one flag this comment (unlike the other one that got flagged of mine for no reason). I want it to just sit here. The hypocrisy is astounding. I love it.

Looks like Fauci might be getting fired. We're all about to die. Dear God.... our fearless, dry mouth scientist won't be able to lead us anymore.

Who gives a shit. All you need is to test a well distributed small fraction of the population to find out many already caught it and developed immunity which drops the lethality to that of influenza and the you can reopen the country like Denmark is doing.

Stop being logical and using your brain. We have 114,000 dead worldwide right now of which 100k would have likely died in that same time span.... But hey, shut the world down.

Where are the Patrick Henrys? where are the FDRs? Who will stand up open their doors and businesses and put this Chinese virus and those exploiting it to promote fear and fascism behind us?

Did his IQ just jump up to average or so ? What did he do ? He must have some new handlers, making sure he gets his B-12 and enough sleep, or something. Because he really was not sounding like his usual self.

I don’t understand what public speaking has to do with intelligence level.

Please explain.

I think he is the guy that needs to rewrite Public Speaking. All he has to do is say a few words, and every crooked, fraudulent guilty cock sucker in the world pipes in and starts admitting every crime they broke. While they break 10 more trying to collude with foreign countries to take him down.

Only a Chinese shill could get things so terribly wrong while thinking he’s being clever.
First, evangelicals never have and never would embrace ANY president as a messiah. It’s against the Christian faith to do so.
Second, God didn’t send this plague.
CHINA created it!

It's hardly a plague, more of a boomer-remover. Fail.

And in the same vein, you'd think this virus would be a bonus to population hysterics, nature's way of culling the weakest from the over-populated world as they view it.

God didn’t send plague. Shithole China did because dumb fucks still eat flying rodents. Shithole country.

You mean the global warming crowd? As we've seen from stuff posted here and elsewhere, if you're a global warming nut, you should be cheering like you team just won the fucking super bowl. Cleaner air with all those heat maps of CO2 you've been seeing posted everywhere. \

We've added at least 5-10 years from what that bimbo in NYC said (AOC). #ThanksCornaWeAllDieLaterNow

lets be honest man, entire world is "racist" if you apply modern American view of it. Could be a fun discussion, I tried talking to my liberal friends about it, it's a mind blowing experiment where they want to be ok with other nations, but than not ok with them because every nation is racist. It's total mind fuck for them.

I’m betting against the IMF with my money.

It's so fucked up. There are actually many people who'd like to see their doctor or do a procedure or test unrelated to CV-19, they pay their insurance dues every paycheck and are being told to wait at many major providers, I mean WTF. You should have the right to stop paying for services that are taken away from you temporarily. The whole world stands still because of of an illness that has so far caused 1/4 deaths that the 2017/2018 flu did.

I gotta admit, I really like seeing news stories like this, where one minority is racist towards another.

Not that I think people being treated badly due to racism is a good thing, but in the USA and other places, they often try to unite all minorities against whites, painting this picture that racism always flows in the direction from white to minority. Racism from minority to minority is ignored, never amplified. And racism from minority to white is said to be impossible. They actually legitimize it, saying - "its not possible to be racist against whites, because they hold all the power".

So, it's satisfying to see high profile news articles which throw a wrench in the gears of their liar narrative.

Lol, if Trump keeps economy closed, disaster and ORANGE MAN BAD.

If Trump opens economy, disaster and ORANGE MAN BAD.

Reasonable people might conclude that the press and Democrats are a function independent of reality, outputting only ORANGE MAN BAD for all possible inputs.

function pressAndDemocrats(input) {
  // ignore input
  return ORANGE_MAN_BAD;

I've been noticing how much nicer the silicon valley is lately. Quieter, less dusty, much more pleasant to drive the roads, etc.

These are the same people who started the toilet paper hoarding, mostly because 40% of theirs come from China.

Austrians are much smarter:

So,
you think Trump is dumb and the Chinese cold is smart?

And Biden's a member of Mensa.

Who you voting for?

When Biden is elected, he'll stand up to Coronavirus like he stood up to Cornpop.

We all should just count our blessings, that it didn't come out of Russia, or the Libeals would be claiming Trump colluded with Russia to create it.
Rather than the truth The Obama Mafia colluded with Gates , NIH and China to create it.

Ummm, I listened to the embedded video on https://www.yahoo.com/news/in-coronavirus-the-stable-genius-confronts-a-brilliant-enemy-180559996.html . He talks about COVID-19 but nowhere does he talk about antibiotics. Did I miss something?

Over at this site: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-antibiotics-coronavirus-white-house-briefing-brilliant-enemy-genius-idiot-a9460636.html
I see him talking about antibiotics, but it's a concise snippet that doesn't reference the coronavirus.

This looks like taking two different topics and commingling them to produce a misleading conclusion. Standard fake-news smear.

Is that a bottle of hand sanitizer in your pocket or are you glad to be six feet from me.

Exactly. Not much of a difference anyway. Whether we have an antibiotic for a bacteria or vaccine for a virus, it really doesn't matter. We don't have anything right now to combat CV-19. His point is the same even if he did say this. He's not a fucking doctor anyway. Some people don't know how to put a spare tire on their car when they get a flat. Doesn't mean they're not intelligent.

But as far as we know, Trump knows full well the difference between bacteria and virus. It's just that the fake-news is putting things together out of context and claiming he doesn't know the difference. This is fake-news making up fake news to smear the president.

Virus are just like bacteria, only smaller. Everybody knows that.

Now, what the hell is a bacteria?

Can you please go back to your high school notes or google

Ceffer is obviously tongue-in-cheek joking. You got punked, even though I do not think Ceffer thought anyone would think "Virus are just like bacteria, only smaller. Everybody knows that" was a serious statement.

Initially I thought so , but looking at Trump's statement and with all the sheeple following Trump, who knows that they now believe what Trump believes.and ready to rewrite the evolution theory

You may have fallen for it again. That Trump statement framing Trump as not knowing the difference between virus and bacteria looks to be an amalgamation of two different unrelated speeches (see SunnyvaleCA post 8).

Yeah, in the original link provided, the embedded video shows Trump talking about COVID-19 but then there are text quotations that mention antibiotic resistance. Using the text quotations, I searched and found a different Trump video (linked in my initial response) that talks about resistance but doesn't have any mention of COVID-19 or any other context that would seem to point towards COVID-19. In fact, that 2nd video is clipped very tightly and I'm wondering if they are specifically clipping OFF the part where he mentions bacteria resistance to antibiotics.

I think the original article TDS writer figured they would put quotations about antibiotic resistance in the text of the article but then link to a Trump video that mentions COVID-19 and hope the reader would put the two together. The video mentions COVID-19 but is long and boring enough that few will watch the 2.5 minutes and say to themselves.... Trump never spoke the words that he is quoted as saying.

100% correct. I just don't know that you're going to change some minds here. Whether it was bacteria or this virus, people would have made up fake stories. I don't really know that there's a way to change this even if you/we call it out. At some point I'm resigned to the fate that it's on purpose, or our society all has slight retardation. I'm fearful it's the latter option.

Approximate Total Corona Virus Deaths so far:127,000
Annual Flu Related Deaths 2019: between 291,000 and 646,000

I'll keep watching, but this video is already bull shit. 300k deaths per day? Lol. We know younger people have been tested and were positive and didn't die. Hell the UK PM got it and survived. The assumption this hasn't been circulating longer than people believe is nuts. Why do you think NYC has been a hotbed? It thrives in dense, urban environments. That includes nursing homes once one person bring it in. They live on top of each other.

The data keeps supporting that it kills old, weak and unhealthy people. And it's really the super unhealthy too, not just the obese. 2, 3, 4, etc. underlying conditions. There aren't 300k a day deaths for those types of people to hit the numbers 2:30 into this video. Children would have to be dying at the same rate as the 60+ crowd to even touch the numbers in this video (so far with what I've watched).

I harp on the expert thing, but there's not one piece of data that could even remotely come close to 300k deaths per day. I'm going to continue watching, but fear I'll be dumber for doing so.

They gave up their lives for the fiat currency economy.

I keep hearing that virtue signalling hogwash. No different than:

Lets lower the national speed limit to 45mph. We would save thousands of lives. If you are against the lower speed limits, it shows you value convenience over the lives of thousands of people.

Lets have a law where all mobile devices have any text feature turned off if the device senses it is going over 12mph. That would save thousands of lives from people killed by those who text while driving. If you are against this, you value your petty ability to text as a passenger over thousands of lives saved.

The Corona Virus is going to stop as soon as Durham announces his indictments.

BTW My Drummer, for the 5 years I've known him. Has bemoaned how his wife and daughter's minds have been hijacked by the left. He makes them sound like Femnazis.
They get triggered by any positive political talk. It's so bad they've been to marriage counseling, though the Councillor turned out to be a Liberal Fag that sided with her, and chastised his male toxicity.
Due to the Stay at home orders, you would think they would have escalated to the worse.
But they came over yesterday as a couple, they are both Chefs on the Beach and they are closed until further notice. They seem like they are bonding. But more telling is his wife, while I was giving them a news update as reported on Patnet. I was expecting her to get triggered and go storming out. Instead at one point, she said, "Obama was handsome, well spoken and charming, but nobody knew just how Evil he was."
She also believes this was spread and managed by the same philanthropist the Democrats all gush over.
Though she's argued with her husband over American politics, she said she's never been political and has never voted in American elections(She's Canadian, well not anymore).
She said she fully intends on getting a voters reg and voting for Trump this time. After four years of savaging her husband for liking Trump.

The Daughter is still a leftest loon, she's dating a Leftist professional protester, and his parents are Professors in one of the Florida colleges.

But probably wont be voting because of Bernie losing.

Coronavirus: Can it even be stopped?

Only once we get herd immunity.

7:00 - Boom. Clear and distinct proof this is a YouTube subscriber push. In the middle of a video after hyping impossible numbers you ask people to share your video? WTF fuck does a virus have to do with YouTube and a bruised ego because you don't know their algo?

ThreeBays - this may come across as personal, but it's not intended that way. Are you genuinely that afraid of this virus? Posting a video that mentions 300k deaths per day is pure click bait. It's simply not possible with even the limited data we have. We'd have to see 10% deaths of tested cases from ages 1-100 to even come close to those numbers. That's assuming the virus just keeps indiscriminately killing people that it currently isn't killing. This video is claiming that 1% of the ENTIRE US population can die in 10 days. That's absurd even from the most pessimistic of virologist. It hasn't remotely come close to doing that in THREE months.

Basically this video is pure fiction and half way through it the guy bitches about YouTube/google not indexing his fucking video the way HE wants?! I stopped watching at the 7 minute mark roughly. Stuff like this is what pushes people over the edge during times like this. YouTube should pull this video. I'm generally not for any censorship, but this is basically telling people they're going to die, so might as well get it over with for those with mental health issues. Not a cool thing to post in all honesty.
