Politics And Current Events

I think this has surpassed Libertarian Game of Thrones to become my favorite of these videos.

[shmenguin]

He mocked the concept of masks and other protective measures. He is a bad leader and bad person. Don’t need the metrics, but this isn’t surprising.

I lost it at let's just warm it up a bit and what else starts with Q

[PrinceOfRossTownship]

Aren't the majority of those places used for human trafficking and the women who "work" there basically slaves?

Yes.

As was the Robert Kraft incident locations.

#wellackshually

Kraft got caught up in the investigation, but in the end it was found to be inaccurate and the workers were all there of their own volition.

[shmenguin]

Miami shutting down had nothing to do with COVID right? Isn’t it the crime sprees?

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

lol saw a headline “Protestors hope to end anti-Asian American violence”

I mean I absolutely sympathize with their cause but wake me up when a single racist person stops being racist because of a protest

[MWB]

I mean, you could say that about any protest. Generally it’s just meant to raise awareness of wrong-doings.

[shmenguin]

BLM is protesting police violence. There’s a behavior and a goal to correct it.

You can’t protest a concept.

[MWB]

Ending violence against Asian Americans would be a behaviors just like ending police violence.

Also not sure why one couldn’t protest a concept.

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

imo protesting police violence was more about going after the infrastructural protections of police and holding them accountable (ie removing qualified immunity)

Evil people are still going to be evil. Unlike police, people that commit evil anti-Asian acts don’t have a parachute to save them

[NTP66]

This is too perfect.

[willeyeam]

oof

[MWB]

“Reopen” is such a broad concept. What does that mean? Fully? Hybrid? Four days a week?

[NTP66]

I assume they mean full, 5 day per week in person classes. Otherwise, they’re many months behind the times, as most schools have been hybrid since November.

[Freddy Rumsen]

This is too perfect.

Too perfect as in accurate?

[Freddy Rumsen]

Which one of y'all tweeted this?

[NTP66]

[willeyeam]

"Too perfect as in accurate"

True enough, but probably not for the reason you might think.

That the science says its safe to be in school and that abandoning kids in lower economic categories to the winds has been detrimental to their development?

[willeyeam]

Keep goin

[shmenguin]

Lemme know if all those teachers got a chance at their 2nd shot +2 weeks yet.

Define "safe to be in school." And I'm saying this as someone who does think kids should be in school as much as possible.

[shmenguin]

I think a classroom with a vaccinated teacher, masked students, appropriate distancing and effective ventilation is a safe school environment.

...but I don’t think that’s what @GOP means

[willeyeam]

And it's deleted. It was a good run
