    Disregard the fact that I can google that Fauci totally mishandled AIDS (whatever it may be I wasn't alive, but other people were alive), has never done anything right really in his whole career, he is a doctor who holds a high position in the US government and this makes anything he says more important than what I say. Let alone I've been screaming bloody murder since March and April and right about everything, with the help of this board, but objectively right about everything, Fauci has been right about nothing, probably had money hedged in the great crash in March based on his facial features and emotions during those press conferences where he was thinking, "Holy shit they bought it!" and rubbing his head like a megalomaniac, I would be too if I had $3,000,000 invested knowing that it was about to go up 100x based upon his press conference.

    Again though, what do I know, I'm just a professional engineer, meaning I have NO understanding of cell biology, epidemiology, or general critical thinking and application abilities. He's a doctor, and I need to shut up lol. Meanwhile our GDP slides 35% and we print 4 trillion dollars to create an unemployed master class getting $600 / week and I'm supposed to smile and take it and say, yeah, I want to have children in this system.

    The problem is America is a sterile, linear, uncreative culture AND THAT'S HOW people want it. So I mean...... I suppose we just have to deal with general economic deterioration for the next three years, or as CNN says, we will "NEVER GO BACK TO NORMAL" and I'm supposed to carry on lol. Vaccines, cfrs, papers, doctors, science, none of this shit matters. What matters is Americans willingly gave up their freedoms upon baseless whispers of fear and they will do so at the drop of a hat or tiny nudge from any person in a position of authority henceforth into the future.

    C'est la vie. God have mercy upon us.
    Yep, how passive we were.

    We then had mobs smashing up our cities and vandalising sacred war memorials in the UK because they were unhappy about policing in the US. Which I believe they were badly misinformed about in the first place.

    I grew up in Prince George's County, MD (and went to PUBLIC SCHOOL, w00t w00t), so I know her kind all too well - "her people" don't need Trump's policies, but she's never met a Black person outside of interactions with service sector

    I had a conversation with someone the other day, and whether or not China released it purposely, they've learned two things: 1)as discussed previously, China now knows it doesn't need to mount a military offensive to mess things up for us, but 2), if they did, they wouldn't need to worry. Except for those who have enlisted, the generations who would normally fight in a war have shown themselves to basically be cowards. If a virus like this can bring so many people to their knees, is there any chance of success in a military conflict?

    Dont get confused between the loud shrieking pussies and the good young men and women who would fight and win a war. The United States and her allies are the most formidable force to have ever existed.

    Yeah. I don't get the impression that this individual is particularly conservative.

    Here is an interesting piece from City Journal: Learning from Breonna Taylor | City Journal

    It will piss off Antifa/BLM:

    It’s perhaps most troubling that Taylor’s death is contributing to the misperception that racism explains racial disparities in police shootings. Former NFL quarterback Collin Kaepernick invoked Taylor in a tweet calling for the abolition of “the white supremacist institution of policing.” Other critics have focused on the statistical overrepresentation of blacks among those fatally shot by police. This disparity, they say, justifies blacks’ suspicions and distrust of the police.

    A 2016 poll showed that the number of blacks who reported worrying about police brutality was generally twice as high as the number that reported worrying about gun violence. And yet, for black men, the odds of being killed by criminal gunfire are several times higher than those of dying at the hands of police. What’s more, the statistical overrepresentation of blacks among those shot by police must be viewed in the context of their statistical overrepresentation among serious violent offenders—particularly known cop-killers and murderers. These unfortunate statistical realities inform the deployment of police resources and the rate at which police interact with black suspects—both of which, in turn, account for at least some of the racial disparities in police shootings.

    The bottom line is that police shootings—indeed police uses of force, generally—are extremely rare outcomes, even in the context of dangerous police interactions. Police use force in less than 1 percent of all arrests. When they do, that force results in a serious injury in just 2 percent of those cases.

    Making things more difficult would be that, in addition to the lazy and cowardly among us, a large number of Americans would probably welcome a foreign invasion and work in seditious ways. Especially in our major cities.

    What they fail to recognize is that Americans have been accepting the economic and societal deterioration since 1970. So far, it is merely a continuation of the concessions made in 60s/early 70s.

    Now is the inflection point. It will not stay the same; It will either turn towards more rapid deterioration, then disintegration under a communist/socialist police state or it will turn sharply towards rebuilding under a nationalist police state. Some level of balkanization is highly probable.
