@geobear40 As always, liberal wokeness is racist in the guise of being non-racist. Blacks are too stupid or whatever excuse liberals are using today, to get an ID to vote but have no problem getting a vaccine passport.

My concern is the race to the bottom with all this racism of low expectations shit. It reminds me of Charles Manson. He believed that blacks were physically superior to whites and would win a race war, but were too stupid to look after themselves so they needed him and his family to rule over them.

@geobear40 The teachers, regardless of race, gender, etc, have the same pay scale. From the stuff I read/saw on this, mentoring is part of being a senior teacher, to help out the newer teachers. Until now, there was no extra pay for mentoring and that is still true for white teachers.

@orhaqi123 I think you have the right idea. The MSM is trying to pull the party away from the Progressive side and more to the Moderate. The MSM is the propaganda arm of the party and the lunatics' making the policy can't hear anything in their Liberal echo chamber. Liberals still think Americans support them.

@raphjd Liberals will do anything they can to keep their power and control.

@raphjd LET THEM EAT CAKE!!!

The lawsuit was withdrawn. If you are interested in the reason for the withdrawal, you can read it on Andy Ngo's site. It's in legalese, though, so be warned.

@bi4smooth said in Watch how fast the southern border closes: As for this ridiculous comment, consider a similar question: If we don't allow criminals to have guns, why are so many felons killing people? Gee, Einstein, maybe illegal immigrants aren't following the law? You think? (HINT: the solution is in the name: illegal immigrants - we're not LETTING them into the country, they're coming in illegally! Catch and release has been going on since Biden opened the border. They are being processed thru DHS & the border patrol and put on buses and planes and sent all over the conutry. Why not test them and vaccinate them?

@hubrys said in NYC Dem councilwoman is racist against latinos: @raphjd said in NYC Dem councilwoman is racist against latinos: Check the other thread. The one where you forgot to log out of your sock puppet geobear40 account and back into your raphjd account before responding to my post? You are such a douche bag.

@geobear40 Don't forget that Ms Feng Feng also absolutely knew that Kyle Rittenhouse killed 3 black men in Illinois. Despite his entire set of "facts" being completely wrong, he still called me stupid for stating the real facts of the case. He got that from narrative-driven liberal "news". My guess is that he got his news from Joy "I was hacked" Reid, Salon, and Slate (and some others) who lied and spread this bullshit narrative. He claims to be a conservative, but he only likes RINOs and Pelosi Republicans.

@geobear40 said in Are the appoved Covid Kits made in USA or China?: Show me the lie and I will correct it if necessary. https://www.fda.gov/news-events/press-announcements/fda-approves-first-covid-19-vaccine The Pfizer vaccine, now called Comirnaty, is fully approved by the US FDA, and has been since August 23, 2021 - hardly "breaking news"... and 2-days prior to the press-release you quoted. I'm not sure how more definitive I can be - that's the FDAs actual press release, on their own website... But look - we can stop arguing this point... this is, for all intents and purposes, a religion for you... Truth be told, there is no authority on Earth that could convince you that the COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective... and that's OK - I don't think every single human needs to take the vaccine! But a large majority DO need to take the vaccine - and for 2 reasons: First and foremost, for their own protection. Vaccinated people still get COVID-19, but they have much "easier" cases, seldom requiring hospitalization - much less dying of the disease. (This is similar to EVERY vaccine: the MMR vaccine, by example, can't stop the measles virus from getting into your body, but it CAN make the infection minor and almost never life-threatening!) Secondly, by vaccinating LARGE proportions of the population, we can potentially END the threat of this virus once and for all. But, so long as large segments of the population continue to provide "ample opportunities for incubation and proliferation" of the virus, it will continue to thrive - and mutate - endangering all of us. EDIT: Let me DIRECTLY refute the primary argument your ridiculous link makes (it claims the FDA approval is for a different vaccine). In the FDA's own words: "Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the first COVID-19 vaccine. The vaccine has been known as the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, and will now be marketed as Comirnaty (koe-mir’-na-tee), for the prevention of COVID-19 disease in individuals 16 years of age and older. The vaccine also continues to be available under emergency use authorization (EUA), including for individuals 12 through 15 years of age and for the administration of a third dose in certain immunocompromised individuals." So, the vaccine was approved (fully approved) for use in people 16 and older, but the EUA is still the authorization for using the same vaccine for children ages 12-15. I'm sorry if that is confusing to you, but it makes perfectly clear sense to me... Prior to full approval, Pfizer could not market the vaccine, and so there was no approved marketing name... now, it has been approved, so the marketing name can be used... I'm not confused by that...

@bi4smooth Ms Feng Feng got her medical degree. How sweet. Ms Feng Feng supports liberal MSM and social media controlling the "facts" even though Zuck the Cuck admitted in court filings that their "facts" are just lowly opinions. Let's not forget that Ms Feng Feng got her Kyle Rittenhouse "facts" from liberal media and thought that Kyle Rittenhouse killed 3 black men in Illinois.

@bi4smooth What are you squawking about, Ms Feng Feng?

@lololulu19 said in Biden now OWNS the Covid Virus!: @geobear40 The main issues now are... the 2020 vaccines are useless against the new strains of Covid.. so all the vaccinations given so far.. are meaningless. False - to the point of absurdity! The vaccines are providing about 70% protection against hospitalization (severe illness) from Omicron, with "natural immunity" (from prior COVID-19 infection) providing about 50% protection.... It is insane to give people the false idea that masks protect them, when it has been established that masks do more harm than good. False - beyond absurdity! In a separate thread I posted a list of more than a dozen links - not to news outlets, or political sites - but medical journals from multiple countries showing quite the opposite: masks of all kinds offer substantial (but far from total) protection from aerated COVID-19 infection. One thing that should be done is to take the temperatures of everybody crossing a border or going on a trip that will take several hours for several reasons: If cooped up next to someone for several hours who is sick - no matter what the disease - there is a high risk of getting that disease. The people who are sick with a high temperature are not only at high risk for giving their disease to others, but also at high risk of being infected by others. For instance.. an unspoken reason why cruise ships are not more popular than they are is because they are incubators for disease. You are cramped in with thousands of other people for several days or even weeks, and you are inundated with their germs in the shared pools, dining rooms, restrooms, etc. The sick people don't have the luxury of staying away from other people when they are on a cruise ship. That's a lot to unpack, but I must agree with final conclusion: now is NOT a good time to go on a cruise! I haven't been sick from a disease in over 20 years. I have not been vaccinated, and I've never had Covid. My immune system is strong because I'm not a smoker nor drug abuser nor prescription drug user either. All these people popping pills for their anxiety, depression and mental problems are compromising their immune systems. Statistical samples of 1 are always definitive! I'm glad you've been healthy, but your good fortunes (on many levels) hardly apply to large populations...

@geobear40 said in UK liberal media reporting on health issues: @bi4smooth said The point here isn't that freedom is bad - only that it can be overwhelming... and stressful! Only to people who have never had Freedom before. Not to the 99.99% of the population of the UK who were born in a free-ish country. Your percentage is a bit hyperbolic - but it is TRUE that people born with choices are more comfortable with them, just as people born without them are more comfortable without them. (I know many people who prefer "smaller stores" because they get overwhelmed by the larger ones - but, mind you, I know some of these people because of the volunteer work I do - so I am aware that my "experience" out-sizes the typical population sample). I have seen this in some of my own children when they first move away from home. They thought they were prepared, but then they have to remember to pay the rent, the power, the water, the insurance, the garbage, the cable, the Internet, the credit cards... ALL THOSE BILLS! Then you also have to make your own Dr & dentist appointments, AND schedule the time off from work, AND convince your boss you're not "playing hookie" AND deal with / plan for the reduction of income because you're not working all of your regular shifts... and and and! It's overwhelming at first... but you adjust (I refer to it as "Adulting 101") That could be alleviated in Childern who are taught life lesson by their parents (I refer to it as "Parenting 101") Your implication that my example of my own children shows poor parenting is pedantic and offensive. I have raised 9 children to adult-hood, and helped raise over 100 more. I actually have a certificate from NACAC (North American Council on Adoptable Children) for being a "Professional Parent." My 20 y/o daughter just bought a new car - her 815 credit score got her the loan at 2.5% APR... I think my kids are (have been) prepared for adulthood just fine - but the shock of doing it ALL on your OWN is still one they all experience! But adding stress DOES often result in cardiac issues... but that doesn't mean all stress is bad! True but it doesn't cause it in young people nor does climate changes cause heart attacks. Wow, you sure like to generalize - 4 of my kids have cardiac issues where high levels of stress DO INDEED cause their hearts to react abnormally. The same 20 y/o with the 815 credit score above wears a heart monitor due to a type of A-Fib - a condition more COMMON to older people, but she has it - go figure! (The damage some of these bio-parents did to their children either prenatally, or in infancy, is enough to tear your heartstrings clean out!) Suicide rates SKYROCKET around the holidays... but that doesn't mean we cancel Christmas! True but it has nothing to do with the post. Sigh - a simple allegory... what's more, it supports (kind of) your position! My point is that, while it may be true that some people are having cardiac issues as a result of worrying about, or even as a more direct result of, climate change, that is not sufficient - in and of itself - to warrant $billions of spending to ameliorate their issues. The articles our examples of the controlling nanny state using FEAR to keep their subjects in line and scared so they don't stand up for their Freedom and no longer need the parental government. I disagree - this isn't a "nanny state" attempting to control us, but rather, to me, this is a "climate change" interest group attempting (with a bit of a reach, IMHO) to tie their cause to additional "catastrophic" results. It's exaggerated at best, if not hyperbolic. My point HERE is: we seem to agree that the reporting is bunk. We appear to disagree on WHY! Happy Holidays!

@bi4smooth Another typical liberal word game in a lame attempt to insult.

@lololulu19 I'm not denying XXY, XYY, and such exist. I'm denying XXG, YUH, and such exist.

Well this is a first for me. to see @bi4smooth post something and have @raphjd reply to it
