OT Coronavirus: America in chaos, News and Updates. One million Americans dead and counting

Cringifier!

 

Read something about a spit test being approved? Don't know if it got posted in here but that would solve a lot of problems.

 

I ain’t reading this whole dam thread! Slow down people!

 

I’m the same way with chewing tobacco

 

You'd be surprised what's in Pelosi's freezer.

Arkancides aren't just for Arkansans.

 

How interesting of China’s to raise their death toll 50%.

Here is the thing and i'm not saying its right or wrong... simply human behavior verified throughout history.

If we are protesting now, how do we think it will be in the fall? Next spring? Its a recipe for disaster for all out civil war and chaos. If people want to freak about something, THIS should be the scenario that is most feared. ( or most welcomed, depending on your mindset)

Now I do see a flipside. A very robotic flipside with no emotions, but its legit in my opinion(though it isn't necessarily my want)

(cue philosophical rant).................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

We are the most spoiled society in human history. Over half our work force and economical expenditures are for leisure time entertainment. Look at the money involved in sports alone. Do we have far too many watering holes and rave clubs around? Would we be more productive in the long run if more of these things were permanently gone, leaving more time and focus on improving ourselves and our surroundings for a better tomorrow, rather than sitting around watching ball games and drinking beer or watching a concert?

When we want to talk about the well being and security of our future, I would think that would include planning and preparing for any eventual outcome our future may entail. Should we not close more entertainment options down and drive that work force into a more production oriented employment, fixated on building for the future?

Is our own freedom of choice to sit on our ass our own eventual downfall? Do we have too many freedoms? Afterall. Its a man made word.

At any rate, humans are VERY predictable. This cant last or there will be riots. With riots will come civil unrest which will evolve into civil war. As countries like Iran, NK, China, etc. watch this unfold, don't think they wont be quick to pile on to ensure the demise of our country.


It seems surreal in today's time, but how fragile our world, economy and society is easily forgotten by many.

These Portland protest scuffles that happen... those kids have noooooo idea how safe they currently still are and how those situations could be COMPLETELY different for them without a functioning government...

The very thing they protest against is their own safeguard to not having complete anarchy and having the radical gun owners not wipe them off the face of the earth.

Its hard not to see this cycle spiraling us downward.

 

Perseverance through adversity and troubled times does build fortitude, and coupled together creates strong character.
I believe we will come out of this stronger if we all pull together.

 

And that's the key. Unfortunately, even in here, you see as many people wanting death and destruction to those who disagree with them as you do people striving for compromise and unity. I want to have faith in humanity, but from what I see and read, my faith is fragile.

Sooo much hate for opposing views currently. Its scary.

 

Think of what it would be like if we all put politics aside for 2 weeks and focused on positive interaction with people of all types and beliefs.

 

A fantasy I can only dream of. But I do dream big!

 

You explain internal polling to what and I'll explain credible link.

 

Where's the fun in that?

 

I might be weird but I actually enjoy talking and rubbing elbows with people of all kinds as long as there is mutual respect.

 

You're right. And yes, you're weird but that's another subject.
