I’ve asked this and not being funny. When do we realize we fought the Revolutionary War for less? When do we make a change?

His use of Pol Pot is kind of ironic considering we supported the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia against the Vietcong-backed faction.

From the Karens on Facebook asking if the police should break up a birthday party


This is a stretch, but the Karens on Facebook who are shaming people left and right make it clear how easy it would be for a totalitarian regime to take over. The tattling is off the charts. Our local community FB page is full of “I saw 6 people talking on the corner of...” type of stuff. Then they tag the mayor and chief of police in the post.

Basically brown shirts who would have no problem demanding to see someone’s papers.

Virus might not kill you but it will kill other people and/or get them hospitalized. Also might ended up going broke or have other health issues after recovering from it.
That is why social distance is a must and wash your hands and do other things to keep from spreading the virus around.

Same thing on my neighborhood group. Some guy asked if any hairdressers were doing in-home appointments and some Karen replied in all caps lock to stay home.

Hell, look at the OT. How many so called “conservatives” are all for us being inside into the summer? It’s a good bit.

The pastor in Florida who was arrested said they were doing all of this.

He got arrested.

Yet a boat manufacturer can bring its 300 employees in every day and everyone touches the same door handles and time clocks.

The government always gains control this way. During world war two income tax was withheld from each paycheck, and was supposed to be temporary.

Medical personnel at the hospital that are treating these infected, touching the patients, the beds, equipment, etc..... go home to their families... go to Walmart, Lowes, the post office, gas stations, etc.

Its intentional destruction, imo. None of this makes any sense unless the goal is for collapse.
