I hate corona for making me like and agree with Dave Portnoy.

The bait and switch with the media is nauseating. They do everyone a disservice by this because there is complete distrust in any mainstream organization whether its media, academia, healthcare etc. People have been burned way too many times and people like Alex Jones the profit off that.

That’s what happens when you incentivize staying unemployed.

Of course, your bitchass knows that.

I don't think there's a random poster with the reach he has.

What are you talking about? New cases are flattened. Total cumulative cases will never flatten until you have 0 new cases.

Interesting that you have no criticism of what was said, only of who said it.
i might be wrong but isn’t it normal to have two goalposts?

srsly who cares about the douchebag from Barstool's opinion?

I 100% agree that no one should care about what his opinion is, but his opinion is right.

Convenient they're not calling out Fox News's own work from home policy that was just extended to June.



I don't think anyone is saying people shouldn't work from home if they can do their jobs from there. Or that they shouldn't social distance at their jobs if possible.

People are saying businesses that are CLOSED should be OPEN.

You can watch it. It doesn’t take a genius to see what happened. Hell, you can quote the Surgeon General and Fauci if you don’t believe Portnoy. “Masks don’t work for the general public” was shouted from the rooftops two months ago as was “flatten the curve.” Everyone has done a 180 on those and why? Political reasons. People’s health was never the real concern for these people.

What?

Yes it does. The blue bars which is new cases is going down. The yellow line is total Coronavirus cases which of course will continue to go and always was understood to go up until two weeks ago.




May I remind you what “flatten the curve” looks like




The area under the curve is the same

Anyone can put 2 and 2 together. He’s not making a scientific argument. He’s pointing out the sudden change in rhetoric.
