People often show their credulity and incredulity depending on what makes them feel good or correct. Watch the confirmation bias run rampant in the coming weeks on both sides. Of course both sides might be correct (or incorrect), but most people can't seem to hold competing thoughts in their head.
Yes, I also think both sides have a point, and that should be okay. But people pick one side or the other and they don't want to be wrong.

I don't think the virus itself is political, it exists. But people have made it political, and are using it as a political weapon, unfortunately. The fact that it's an election year only amps everything up.

But none of us know of anyone that's got COVID19....
I know of a couple people who have had it. They both recovered, but one was hospitalized and on oxygen for a few days.

I think the virus is dangerous, but of course the media sensationalizes everything. I've been practicing social distancing, but I'm not convinced this forced lockdown was the correct thing to do.

I believe the increase in so called experts behind the keyboard on this topic have increased faster than the unemployment rate in the US by now.

@corrector I make more money at my gig than the government would give me and I also make more money at my side business than what the government would give me. You are wasting your life with your bullshiit beliefs. I know 2 people that have had the china virus and one of them died, although he really died from medical negligence, having said that I know way more people that are unemployed because of the china virus. With the damage that we have done to our economies their is going to be a worldwide hunger pandemic that will kill way more people. To all the lock down supporters let me pose this question. When the poor countries of the world start to beg for money to save their citizens from mass starvation, where are we going to get it from? When you damage the producers you damage the production system and when you do that you unleash an even more deadly virus it's called the starvation virus.

They can get it from the 1%. Too much people work hard and end up having to choose between rent and groceries. The tax base had eroded if more people are working poor. If you are an exception good for you. But I think there are more people living paycheque to paycheque so it really does not matter how you are doing.

All the restaurants, theaters, casinos, gyms, airports etc in the country are closed, which means people are unemployed...... That's observable....

Plus everyone on here knows someone who's out of work whether it's a neighbor, relative or friend.... That's also oberservable....

But how many of us actually know someone that has COVID19? The vast majority of us dont know of anyone (family, friend, or neighbor) that has it....

If you're argument is that most people are asymptotic then that just proves that we shut down the country and wrecked the economy for no reason.
OMFG, really?

I don't personally know anyone who has had a heart attack, so nobody gets them. If some people do, then how do I know for sure how many people did?

I don't personally know any billionaires, so they must not exist.

There's a bunch of businesses around here that had to close, but there's no problem with unemployment, because for all I know the businesses lied about laying off their staff and are paying them without telling anybody. That way their employees can collect unemployment and screw the system like the lazy scum that they are. :rolleyes: (sarcasm, for anyone who's sufficiently tone-deaf to miss it)

I could cherry-pick all day, but I've had so many already my stomach is starting to hurt...

Are you asymptomatic, experience mild symptoms, or you just didn't catch the virus yet? Different people, from all walks of life, including children, very healthy marathon runners at a young age, all across the board are dying horribly from this virus. Sure, lots of people are asymptomatic or have few symptoms but they can pass them to healthy people who can end up dying, that's almost akin to murder.

You don't care about 1 million or 10 million lives? See your example just keeps going higher in body-count. Why did you stop at 10 million? Why not stop at 100 million or half the population, or 3/4 of the population, or how about just leave a million survivors? Where do you draw the line?
We drive cars, no? People die in car accidents every minute. Why dont we ban cars? Why dont we make the speed limit 10 miles per hour? There would be near zero deaths. Toddlers drown in bathtubs regularly. We should ban bath tubss while were at it. The point of life is to live a full life, not a safe one.

They don't die by suffocation though (unless the car is going into a lake). Too much suffering with this disease. I also pray before taking the wheel and don't just drive like that.

People are at fault with accidents not cars, people are at fault when toddlers drown, not bathtubs, but when it all boils down to it, it's always someone at fault for those deaths. With a pandemic the people who are at fault are those who are sick who refuse or are not being quarantened and you don't have to be showing any symptoms to be sick so it's safer to keep everyone home.

One thing I will agree on is they should dismantle the police force because civilians die because of the police and you can't justify as to how they lead to a full life rather than a safe one.

Some well known conspiracy theorists say the virus itself isn't even real. That the elites are using the flu as the vessel of covid to create the plannedemic as the flu deaths numbers down by 80% than what they normally are.

I'm not going to say the virus is fake. There is a ton of red flags that should make one question what the real agenda is. Why would they blatantly kill patients in hospitals, why would they list just about every death as corona, why are a lot of hospitals empty, why are nurses saying their bosses are taking their patients away cause their doing proper treatments only for those patients to later die, why is hydroxycholrone all of a sudden being blasted when it was praised for the last 40 years, why were the figured from Fauci way the fuk off.

Now you have the media manipulating the mass's with the Arbery killing. Constantly showing a 7 year old high school grad pic to touch you heart. You see schools force you to smile and wear a suite. The expression is forced, meaning when you look at it you think aww what a good nice boy he is. Thats not the real person you're seeing, it's a deception the media uses as operation mocking bird is an extremely effective mind control method. The media shows you certain clips to deceive you into hating the white men and loving the black man. Not saying what they did to him was wrong cause it was. What I am saying is the media is forcing a certain narrative to manipulate your mind to believe what they want you to believe.

Then you have the 100% staged death of Floyd. There were enough red flags with that one to make it obvious it is staged. One of the biggest red flags was the ambulance pulls up to supposedly help the victim but not one EMT was actually there? All cops wearing body armor. Zero medical help for a victim who's laying on the ground unconscious, zero medical equipment on the scene. Only cops come out the back of the ambulance, pick up the body and put it in the back of the truck. The more awake you become, the easier it is to see the blatant deception right before your eyes.

All of this is preplanned to cause a racial war, riots & looting. Deep state is becoming desperate. Come election time they will probably pull another rabbit out the hat. Soros is funding all this chaos. Paid protesters, people spraying Fuk Trump on buildings which is 100% paid to spread hate. A undercover cop was caught breaking windows during a riot to instigate others to start rioting, I've seen a pile of bricks next a building that were deliberately placed to entice rioters to use them. Some kids even knew it was staged saying there is zero construction in this area.

People are shouting fake news to the media outlets at protests which causes them to leave. News outlets caught on live tv lying, saying people aren't wearing masks when a guy walks up saying neither is your camera man. Most all the rioters who were arrested in MN were from out of state. All paid actors crisis actors. It's so hard for the average human to believe this kind of stuff due to being conditioned by the fake media. I even went searching to look for ads on sites for paid crisis actors and couldn't believe my eyes. They make them sign confidentiality contacts.

A few years back I went to a Carmax and saw a bunch of people protesting against them in front of the dealership. Me being the curious man I am I walked to the crowd to spark a conversation with one of them. I asked the guy what they protesting against Carmax. He straight I said "I dont know man, I'm just here to get paid to hold this sign". Kinda blew my mind as he said all the protesters were there strictly for the money.

Most people have no clue a lot of cops are Freemasons. Who to do freemasons worship=Lucifer. This is a spiritual war we're fighting right now. We're seeing a great awaking before our eyes. I personally do not think we've seen the worst of what is going to happen. I truly hope what I feel will happen doesn't happen. These elites will stop at nothing to get to what they want.

To what end?
Ratings, it's all about ratings. How else are the conspiracy theorists going to attract eyeballs?

In fact, I'd go so far as to say that this plandemic is the end result of decades of covert work by a secret cabal of conspiracy theorists. They have gone far too long being ignored or ridiculed, and this is their revenge. Their day has come at least, fueled by the left-wing internet media companies which unwittingly carry their message far and wide.

Prove me wrong! :rofl:

If there really was a pandemic,we wouldnt need the media to tell us about it.
It would be self evident.

If only I were as omniscient as you. Wow.

As for me, at least I understand the prefix "pan-" in "pandemic". Because left to my own devices, the best that would be self-evident is a local outbreak. To have visibility into a pandemic, by definition, requires that that I be informed by people other than myself.

That means either one of two things: either there has been a very dramatic reduction in the number of covid patients being hospitalized, or they’re all suddenly dying in the hospital at an alarmingly high rate.

I think we’d know if it was the latter.
So... either we've achieved herd immunity, or the measures have succeeded in reducing the infection rate? Seems the simplest two explanations to me.

I believe the infection rate was reduced by taking measures. I just don’t believe it was achieved by closing Bed Bath & Beyond while keeping McDonals open.

I think washing your hands and disinfecting everything had more to do with it all.
Agreed that the tradeoffs inherent in the lockdowns will be a subject of debate for quite some time.

Though from the things I've been reading, infected surfaces are increasingly considered the lesser of the infection vectors versus droplets and aerosols. So while hand-washing and disinfection are a good thing, they may have been over-emphasized.

Entirely possible. I've read this is the latest line from the CDC. But they have flip flopped several times in the last few months, so I am going to take what they say with a grain of salt. The most certain thing seems to be that we don't know everything about this disease. But people today want answers yesterday.

Havd you been informed by other people then? Actual people that is,as opposed to the media.
They didnt have Fox, BBC,SKY etc during the spanish flu but everyone knew about it because everyone had been affected by it.
Only a virus with less than 0% fatality rate needs constant media reinforcement. How else would people willingly give up their civil liberties and livelyhoods.

Less than 0% fatality rate? How is that possible? Does the virus confer immortality? Where's the evidence for that?

I'm sure he meant less than 1 per cent, e.g. 0.2 or whatever. Obviously less than zero would mean COVID zombies. Although the way this year is going, I won't rule anything out.
Sorry, the original post was ridiculous on the face of it, and instead of just rolling with my joking response he simply left his assertion as-is and tried to cite a reference which did not support it. So unless he clarified what he actually meant, other than the verbatim "less than 0% fatality rate", I'm not going to read between any lines here.
