anyone else thinks it funny that her name is jizz?

...that and many unemployed are furloughed officially. That means the employer furloughs them (which isn't a permanent layoff), tells unemployment agencies that, the employee gets counted as employed or unemployed depending on who/how the stats are measured, gets unemployment assistance and/or combo of unemployment and payroll protection subsidies (which the employer gets to never or almost never pay back to the feds if done right). Etc,etc. until they come back to work.

They're getting full pay while working half time and the states have them do something Re: Unemployment, so this sounds right.

Artificial financial crisis deserves artificial unemployment numbers.

There's a shit ton of people on UE, that refuses to get a job, because now they are making more than when they were working.

More over, Obama's artificial UE numbers were never an issue. Patnet seemed like the only website in all of Internetdom, even discussing it at the time.

As far as most people are concerned, the Black Death was bubonic plague, Yersinia pestis, a flea-borne bacterial disease of rodents that jumped to humans. But two epidemiologists from Liverpool University say we’ve got it all wrong.

Yep, it was Covid.

richwicks says

Why do you have any trust in a probable pedophile who was clearly engaged in corruption in Ukraine, who is almost certainly senile?

I'd have voted for Tulsi Gabbord. But non warmongering assholes not allowed.

If Biden were to choose Tulsi for VP he might get my vote. More likely he'll choose Kamala or some other woman of color, mostly because she (whoever she is) is a woman of color.

richwicks says

almost certainly senile

Almost certainly? Have you heard him try to talk lately?

Social Education, September 2000

That paper was an outright lie then as it is now.

The Primariy process is precise controlled Election Choices to make the voter feel like they have a say in selecting the predetermined 2 party candidates.

Trump exposed exactly what happens, when the Anointed choices are bested by a run away wagon.

As in 2000 as in 2016 and as it has been since Reagan's final years. The Bush Dynasty, and the two corrupt Political parties were in direct collaboration on selecting the two Presidential candidates. It didn't matter if Al Gore won or lost, the Bush years would have played out the same, it didn't matter if Clinton won or lost, his years would played out the exact same as well. You see how Trump has brought all of these crooks together in their bipartisan effort to thwart the will of the people and guy they elected.
Kerry, Gore, Shit Stain McCain, Mittens, were all part of the very same regime they lost elections to.

DILLIGAF says

In 1665, the inhabitants of Eyam selflessly confined themselves to the village. A third of them died, but they kept the disease from reaching other towns. This would not have worked if the carriers were rats.

1/3rd is normal for the Medieval Black Death

Black Plague spread by Fleas, and "A bath when you're born, and another to see your through the Pearly Gates, are the only baths you'll ever need" was a slogan back then.

In England, as most of Europe, Filthiness was next to Godliness as Stylites, Hermits, and Prophets did not bathe. Bathing was the sin of vanity, and even the vain Spaniards and Italians only bathed once a month. Medieval revisionists greatly mislead about bathing at the time; there were a few baths mostly known for miracles and healing properties, they were only used in special instances and few and far between.

Jews were least effected, which led to "Poisoning the Well" stories. Why effect Jews less? All Jews back then were observant and required to wash face and hands before all meals, and upon getting up and going to bed. Additionally, there are Talmudic requirements that mandate regular washing, esp. for women after menstruation.

Whereas for Catholics, wearing the same hair shirt for weeks and never bathing were marks of Piety; the opposite the sin of Vanity. Interestingly, Orthodoxy did not believe this and rates of Black Plague outside big cities were low.

Humans carried these fleas, not just Rats. Cats and dogs and really all mammals like Stoats and Foxes, carried the fleas.

FuckCCP89 says

Yep, it was Covid.

Right? It's so well established it's almost beyond debate. We've observed plague in modern times and it fits the reports of the 1300s (and 600s) perfectly. And the vector is certainly fleas, which has been established by biology.

The virulent medieval plague killed people about 3-5 days after first symptoms - that was what was most shocking about it. Some lethagy on day one, and dead in a few days, covered with massive buboes.

This is like arguing that malaria is due to a lack of social distancing and not wearing a mask.

"socialism for the oligarchy and austerity for the many, in the end, feeds the racist ultra-right."

It sure does, but there's no interest here apparently this is fake news.

It actually feeds (and funds) the racism of BLM, but who's counting?

DILLIGAF says

Julian then said something along the lines of: That will benefit Trump who knows how to feed off the anger of the multitudes toward the educated, upper middle-class elites. I agreed, saying that DiEM25 has been warning since 2016 that socialism for the oligarchy and austerity for the many, in the end, feeds the racist ultra-right. That we are experiencing again what happened in the 1920s in Italy with the rise of Mussolini.

Agreed, but with caveat that this feeds both ultra-right and ultra-left.

We don't even have the ultra-right, unless you look under a microscope somewhere. They are an invented bogeyman used to justify pervasive leftist violence.

The situation indeed is somewhat like 1933 Germany, but with the leftists taking the place of the Nazis: banning books, censoring speech, firing or beating up anyone who dares to disagree.

Uh Huh.

@jazz_music Did you actually hear his speech, or read a whole transcript of it?

Or do you just take WaPo's word for everything?

Patrick says

Is there an inaccurate quote by Washington Post?

What is wrong.

My mind is still reeling after watching the rabid attacks on both of those shows on Fox, yet to hear them, and Trump, they are the ones that are being attacked!

I ordered food from a small place struggling to get though the shutdown here in Sunnyvale, California.

The Indian owner of the food place was playing Trump's speech as he was making it.

That wasn't only an act of bravery on his part, but it also tells you how much small business is pissed off with the local establishment government. People have no idea how pissed off small business owners are fucking enraged by the local governments here, and they are all democrats.

My meal was $10 - I tipped him $7.

I doubt they even cared about even the tiny shreds of plausible deniability with Epstein. It was more like "We'll do whatever we fucking like, and if you don't like it, Fuck You because you are powerless against us!" It was pure, blatant, unvarnished, overt psychopathy of the Deep State, no more hand shadow puppets.

One works hard to put things "right" as they see them. After achieving that goal, should what is desired now be changed for the sake of change? How long do you get to enjoy something before it must be changed?

What large scale changes have been positive in the last 30, 40, 50 years? I can't come up with too many. The Internet allowing people to communicate and bypass censorship and media/political gatekeepers is one, although that has a significant downside with social media consuming people's lives and detaching people from the human element.

Look back over human history. In what period have things changed as much as they have in the last 100 years? I'd argue we've had more change in the past century than in the past 1000 years combined. Resisting some change right now should not be equated with a clinical phobia.

It's time to slow down and absorb it.

If things are always changing, perhaps that needs to change. A period of stability after a century of churn is itself a change. A needed one.

As long as they are able to distinguish between things that aren't right vs what they are being told aren't right.

If your changes require taking away rights, freedoms, or the proceeds of labor from others, you're almost assuredly going down the wrong road.

Sink or swim.
Wear a mask and get back to work you lazy slobs.
99% of cases are mild.
The deaths are falling.
Karens can kiss my ass, drop dead bitches.

People like positive change (job promotion, new baby, etc) and dislike negative change (your history is racist and should be destroyed, and you as well).

Not difficult and not pathological in the least.

Bannon's comment taken out of context again. He said the Deep State is no longer deep, but a Shallow State that can be discerned. "It's right in your face." It's a matter of distinction, not substance. I guess we can call it the 'Shallow State' now since they behave with impunity and arrogance.

It depends - if Sars cov 2 is airborne this may hold somewhat true. But then masks below n95 accomplish nothing and even n95 are only moderately protective. If it's spread via droplets only as the WHO currently maintains then Berman is the usual CNN fake news idiot.

What is your point in bringing up transgressions from 1868?

FYI: This is my tribe. I am a member of the Rosebud Lakota nation. The Lakota grievances go back to before Lincoln.

WTF does any of this have to do w Trump?

This association game is as weak as it is ambiguous. SPELL. OUT. YOUR. ISSUE. If you have one, that is.

I bet you cant.

So Barak Obama and Bernie Sanders shouldn't have visited it and said nice things about it?

Fascinating how CNN called Mount Rushmore "majestic" and "quite a sight" in 2008 when Obama visited, but now its a symbol of slavery and stolen landhttps://t.co/3sV1ZEfW9L https://t.co/GTIH9tzOim pic.twitter.com/5Vu6uQp4XS

Racist Native American!!! because do not support progressive ides, and because orangeman bad

jazz_music says

since the land is tribal territory.

Who the fuck cares? Society evolves. Let's get stuck in the past though 🙄. Native Americans "own" all the land theoretically with what you're spewing. Let's just give it back. See how that works out. You ever been on a reservation? Predominately Indian towns in Canada? There's a reason they didn't do anything with North America. You'll eventually learn that.

The last freakin' things the Indians would do if they got it back would get rid of Mount Rushmore.

They'd build a casino, gas station, and state tax free shop on the way to it, along with a $10 toll road.

All of the Indian tribes stole land from each other and exhibited horrid torture and murder to rival tribes. Their technology was inferior to the Europeans, and they got pushed aside. And that is the lesson - advance or fall into the waste bin of history.

I'm trying to think of a time that ever happened. More likely: some non-"native" person would build a casino and the "natives" would just syphon off a portion of the profits. The ultimate in economic rent.

nothing wrong with any of that! If palefaces are stupid enough to give their excess earnings to Indian casinos, more power to Indians. .
