In what way? Provide an example of my socialist beliefs

I love when they trot this stuff out. It really reinforces how disconnected they are from the reality of actual socialism versus the hijacked used f the term as a pejorative to describe their political rivals.

Bonus points to those who call the 'not trumpers' Marxists and Bolsheviks.

You can save yourself a lot of money by just going out and catching fish “ bait” from the creek .

Bruh...I can't help that you're uncultured and don't know deliciousness when it hits your palate.

Spicy Tuna

All dipped in lower sodium Soy sauce with a bit of wasabi. My salivary glands are working OT right now.

Personally I think the only extraordinary measure were required for nursing home, with heightened awareness those at high risk and for the rest of us. We probably would have more hospitalizations, possibly a few more "shortened" lives. but millions fewer lost work hours and Trillions fewer dollars of debt.

Fair assessment, no disagreement.

What happened vs. what would have happened is a factor here. They said hospitals will become over-run, and they would have (and sounds like some were in NYC area) ..... BUT, that doesn't mean they would have everywhere. Some of this was a factor of learning what level of hospitalization would be required - and that was originally over-estimated. That was an error. But the other hand is that the mitigation measures appear to have turned this around, and so it's hard to take current numbers and say hey you were wrong when you said to shut down. (But it does make a great case that it is past time to start opening up these areas)

As for the did we need to shut down everywhere - I think that message was never explored in full, at least not in the public discourse that the policy makers were willing to have. It was shut it all down. I think that is because the concern was if you let more rural areas remain going that it would cause the cities to just ignore it ..... or maybe it was just short-sighted. I do think we saw some of this in Texas though. The state kept looser restrictions over all but areas like Houston laid a decent hammer down and all the suburbs generally followed suit.

I said early on when this thing didn't come close to the numbers predicted this would be the argument from the lock it down forever people.

They demonized the term "liberal" in the 80's. Now that that is no longer effective, they've trotted out "socialist".

No Publix up there huh?

Passable sushi if'n its fresh and you don't mind eating it from a plastic container.

Socialist is apropos for some of the beliefs espoused. Ironically, those beliefs come from both the Left and the Right.

I said the same (seriously) - except with a twist. I said the tough thing will be if this is successful, people will look back and say - man, all that for nothing.

I think that this is a heterogenous situation with an attempt at a homogeneous solution. Knoxville was never going to see a NYC-like wave (even when per capita adjusted). It wouldn’t come nearly as hard/fast.

I was happy with demonizing “ progressive liberals “ the Dems are the ones that trotted out “ Democratic Socialism “ like it was going to be a good thing . The left use to avoid the word socialist at all costs , then they Started to embraced It. It was a bad idea ( IMO )

 

[allvol123]

Do you think this is as of a result of the social distancing and shutdowns or would this have been the case irrespective of the governments distancing and shutdown mandates?

It wouldnt have been much different. Most adults will adjust their behavior as needed. They dont need another adult to explain and mandate things to them.

hard and fast is the only way I like my heterogenous situations.

I'm gonna eat about 50 pounds of Sushi once I can find a place open and not packed to the gills with fatties like me.

All the bait shops around here are open.

Closest one is an hour. Kroger has a fresh sushi section.

But it isn't the same. My taste buds will not be satiated with that pedestrian fare. One of my fav places is in Jax...Kamiya86

In a society of 350m, "most" may not be good enough to spare the majority from the consequences of the defiance by the minority.

The majority will never suffer the worst impact of this virus, no matter our behavior.

It's a very true statement.

Cuomo and Newsom don't face reelection until 2022, they can afford to play the game.

I understand your deep butthurt. Both Newsom and Cuomo have had to teach Donald what to do during this crisis.

Do you mean things like sending C19 positive patients back to nursing homes or are you referring to closing beaches in a county of over 3 million people (Orange Co in California) where only a mere 50 have died due to the virus?

These mayors and governors at best showed us all they don't have any leadership qualities. I will speak about TN because that's what I know the most about, our idiot governor thought the best way to go about it was a one size fixes all approach. Why does a county with 2 cases or 0 need to shut down? At this point it needs to be back open fully and let the people decide how much of a risk we want to take

If that is Cuomo's goal he failed miserably.

He was already making bad decisions on how to handle the virus before those two yelled "Hold my beer, Donald".

 

[theFallGuy]

must shut down this barbershop because people will die if he cuts hair

AG: State suspends Owosso barber's license for refusing to shut down shop

 

[allvol123]

So has covid destroyed our military yet? Seems a couple of weeks ago it was on the verge of doing so.

The only thing they teach us is ..all politicians will suckle at the money tit when it’s time to.

Gavin Newsom goes from resistance leader to unwitting Trump surrogate
