aceofspadeshq at gee mail.com CBD: cbd.aoshq at gee mail.com Buck: buck.throckmorton at protonmail.com joe mannix: mannix2024 at proton.me MisHum: petmorons at gee mail.com | Leftwing Neurotic Wealthy Woke White Woman's Magazine The Atlantic Notices That Liberals Have Become Mentally Ill Over Covid"The Liberals Who Can't Quit The Lockdown." Lurking among the jubilant americans venturing back out to bars and planning their summer-wedding travel is a different group: liberals who aren't quite ready to let go of pandemic restrictions. For this subset, diligence against COVID-19 remains an expression of political identity--even when that means overestimating the disease's risks or setting limits far more strict than what public-health guidelines permit. In surveys, Democrats express more worry about the pandemic than Republicans do. People who describe themselves as "very liberal" are distinctly anxious. This spring, after the vaccine rollout had started, a third of very liberal people were "very concerned" about becoming seriously ill from COVID-19, compared with a quarter of both liberals and moderates, according to a study conducted by the University of North Carolina political scientist Marc Hetherington. And 43 percent of very liberal respondents believed that getting the coronavirus would have a "very bad" effect on their life, compared with a third of liberals and moderates. Last year, when the pandemic was raging and scientists and public-health officials were still trying to understand how the virus spread, extreme care was warranted. People all over the country made enormous sacrifices--rescheduling weddings, missing funerals, canceling graduations, avoiding the family members they love--to protect others. Some conservatives refused to wear masks or stay home, because of skepticism about the severity of the disease or a refusal to give up their freedoms. But this is a different story, about progressives who stressed the scientific evidence, and then veered away from it.Leftists are especially hardcore Science Deniers when it comes to reopening schools, of course: On that point, check out this tweet from the president of, I think, the American Federation of Teachers Randi Weingartner:
Here are 10 easy ways to keep feeling morally superior once the pandemic is over: Never stop wearing a mask as long as you live: This is probably the simplest solution. Wear your mask forever. Breathe in that sweet, sweet, moral superiority and CO2. Start a podcast about your time wearing a mask: Bring in co-hosts who also wore masks, and talk about how you wore masks. As a bonus, do it while wearing a mask. Get a tattoo of your mask on your face: There's no better way of reminding everyone how important masks used to be and how important you were for wearing one. Start an HOA in your suburban neighborhood: Oh-- you already started one? Of course, you did! Declare a climate emergency and switch to an all-bug diet: Bugs are the most morally superior thing to eat. Also, be rich and drive an electric car. Shame all people who do not do the same. Punch a white male in the face every day: If you're not already doing this, what the heck is wrong with you? Go punch a white male in his dumb white face!PS: Cry moar, bitch.

there was a really good spoof (i think) vid of a Karen talking about how she chose her career as an actress because she wouldn't have to think, just take directions from others. So she was especially happy with all the COVID govt mandates because it made her feel safe without having ever to think about it.

Politics drives everything liberals do. Science doesn't matter. In NY even their own parents dying doesn't matter. Killing your baby doesn't matter. What matters is the political optics and "winning" no matter what it costs. At the end of the day if you can say you "owned" Republicans, it's a good day for these sick, delusional, anti-science, anti-life, mask obsessed dunces.

NC's Roy Cooper says that The Science has proved masks are super duper requirments and that you can maybe possibly go without one if you're rushing from the interior your car to your home and quickly put it back on once you're inside around family, BUT masks and mask mandates are the not-law until 2/3rds of the NC population gets one of the vaccines.
The bad part is that vaccinations have dropped like a rock because the people who wanted the shot went and got it the moment it was available. No one else wants it. So I guess we'll be wearing masks forever. Ha, just kidding. It's up to the people to say "screw you, you're vaccinated, leave me alone" and force life back to normal.

Leftards are incapable of simple deductive reasoning. Thus actual science is a complete mystery to them. Lack of understanding coupled with complete fealty to government authority results in "science" becoming religion. They sacrifice to Moloch. And their mask is their badge of fealty. They should be mocked and made the butt of jokes.

Once you hit a certain age, you do start to 'shrink. Not sure how tall the Carters were in the 1970s but they are shrinking. It's an age thing. My parents are in there late 70s and early 80s and they aren't as tall as they once were. Of course Mom was a towering 5'3 in her prime.

Especially when it's been proven that our sworn enemy, the Chinese Communist government, release it from one of their bioweapons laboratories "accidentally on purpose." Lots of alarm bells should've gone off and red flags flown when this started in such a way. I'm still amazed there isn't a hell of a lot more pushback against this bio-tyranny.

It's *everything* with the Leftists. Leftists are quivering bundles of neuroses and other mental illness. Liberals are just normal people who are wrong.

>> Wonder if Jimmuh gave Turnip Joe any pointers on how best to usher in that wonderful 70s era of stagflation, the misery index, gas shortages, 20% mortgage interest rates, hostages...
We're gonna get all that, on steroids -- The bank analysts are now freaking out about it, as all the indicators are lining up, but still cling to it being "transitory". We'll get all that except for 20% interest rates. Jacking up interest rates is how Paul Volcker at the Fed of the day killed that inflation. But they can't do that now, as 20% (hell 5%) interest rates would kill the US govt (which is about $29T in debt total). It would also kill just about every European govt. So, the central banks the world over are going to have to keep printing and do whatever is necessary to keep interest rates at zero. They know all this. They have destroyed the monetary system and know there is nothing they can do, so they'll keep going until it collapses.

>>I think many people who saw teachers as glorified babysitters got a reality check this year when schooling had to be done at home. Teachers deserve respect and recognition for all of the ways they help communities.
Let's be honest: Randi knew that people's ability to work outside the home was dependent on their kids being in school (why this is the chosen norm is another conversation, it's the current reality). She knew that keeping schools closed would ensure that the economic recovery was delayed, if not significantly harmed. People concerned about the burden of kids home was about that, not simply seeing them as babysitters. She knew keeping schools shut helped destroy Trump's economy, helped Biden's campaign. Given that teachers unions are some of the biggest Democrat donors, likely she was working in concert w/the DNC. Posted by: Lizzy at May 04, 2021 12:50 PM (bDqIh) 149

Trump raised Patterico's taxes by limiting the SALT deduction.

Posted by: TheJamesMadison, in a Lynchian nightmare at May 04, 2021 12:52 PM (LvTSG) It was always dishonestly framed to local voters (especially here in CA). SALT allows a state to essentially write off a portion of its high taxes while not paying their fair share into the national pot. It's a scam, but those affected just hear "Trump took your money."

Little Green Shitballs just lost his mind. Patterico went borderline paranoid schizophrenic and Analpundit sucked one too many liberal dicks. That's the abridged version.
Posted by: Marcus T at May 04, 2021 12:50 PM (ZmCUz) Bike Boy was never conservative by his own admission but tolerated us for a while. My hypothesis about why he changed was his fellow dipshit musicians playing that horrid smooth jazz crap threatened to freeze him out of future lounge gigs unless he denounced us. Patterico is seriously emotionally disturbed. The county authorities should put his children, assuming they aren't made up fantasies, in foster homes and remove all small animals to a petting zoo.

True, but it is good to see some of the left realize they are the ones being conned ... Moore sorta mocked a lot of the fools praising the Green things, including the ignorant kids on campuses. ... Maybe they also soon wake up to being conned on masks, and shutdown of so many small businesses (that may never reopen), and the depressing isolation forced on us. The oligarchs have pushed The New Normal, and build back better .. but the more people realize it was all a destructive con game to enrich billionaires, the better chance the oligarchs lose control (maybe).

Posted by: bonhomme at May 04, 2021 12:40 PM (YYlyE) I'd agree... But there are some other oddities that make me think some photoshopping has taken place also. Either way, it's a lousy photo. Posted by: Additional Blond Agent, STEM Guy at May 04, 2021 12:47 PM (ZSK0i) I had an argument about this earlier on gab, most people want to believe it's shopped. Yes to wide-ish angle lens. What this is is probably a crop sensor DSLR with an onboard flash (see flash reflection in wood panel). When doing this (this is studio photography 101) you get a weird cutout effect, because the shadows are all cast directly behind the subject, and the lighting is flat and even making faces look flat. Wide angle of course makes things in the background seem even further away (I shoot a wide angle for a living). The giveaways are look at Jimmah's shoes. They're HUGE! The chairs are normal sized. Joe looks the weirdest, but again, it's all optical illusion. Posted by: clutch cargo - processed in a facility that may contain lead at May 04, 2021 01:04 PM (wAnMi) 224
Somebody here last thread recounted how local school board was taken over in response to C19 idiocy by old board (not the Vail thing). First I've heard of anything like it.
The near total absence of anything like it, around the country, has been for me the final nail in the assessment coffin.

Bike Boy was never conservative by his own admission but tolerated us for a while.
My theory is that he and other liberals were terrified about dying via jihadi after 9/11 and suddenly went looking for people they thought could and would protect them. Maureen Dowd had, err, impure thoughts about Rumsfeld, and Mr Little Green Goofball wanted to sniff Bush 43's bike seat. When it became clear that Bush 43 and co mostly solved the domestic problem (note by sending muslims illegals and questionables out of the country) the fear went away and they went back to their normal liberal stupidity.

In the first year of C19 in Sweden, where virtually no "policies" were adopted in response (i.e., approach was based, mostly, on actual science as developed in century since the Spanish Flu), there were ...... 0 deaths of school-age children. Zero.
Thanks to Sweden, FL, SD, and a few other jurisdictions, we have good control groups to illustrate the utter futility of "policies" adopted to slow transmission. Unfortunately, science (along with law, the constitution, and common sense) is dead. It's much worse than I thought before. You have lysenkoism on a mass, and institutional, scale - and it's much worse, because it is grass-roots/mindset-driven - not driven by fear of a tyrant's terror regime. Add a miseducated/credulous/fearful populace (much of it), and all that's missing is some other faux "crisis" whose "policy" response will provide near-total control over all human behavior and activity.

People criticized me all last year about how my masklessness was "making the matter political."
"Don't be political. Wear the damn mask." Etc. Etc. Etc. I usually replied that I wasn't making it political, they were. This was my reply, even to my allegedly-Republican friends who *also* told me I was "making it political." The lack of a mask has become synonymous with being the staunchest of Trump supporters. Almost a QAnon level of Trumpism. And honestly, I could not be more pleased with this turn of events. I did not make it political. They did. And now that we are reaching the point where every last excuse for wearing the mask is being erased, the subconscious association of !Mask == ORANGE MAN GOOD will take a long time for them to break. It became Pavlovian over the past year.

And this has been going on for many, many years.I point to the fact that people lack the ability to do critical thinking (which is what teachers ACTUALLY should be doing). If they did, the masks would have been off months ago. If masks were effective, we would have been wearing masks for flu season every year.

Kinda like assuming all cops are bad.
Posted by: Inogame at May 04, 2021 01:05 PM (53oGX) Or assuming one is good - in your case, since you're crossing threads, Chauvin. This really interests me. Not you - not in the slightest - but this extremely noticeable urge to take every situation and assign "good" or "bad". Both the Left and Right do it. The arbitrary assignments are what fuel most of the conflict. In my experience, most people are extremely self interested at best. Capable of good or bad in according to what they feel - not think, feel - profits them at the time. A few are truly malevolent or benevolent. But the vast majority are capable of bad while convincing themselves they're doing good, and they rarely question of their good works might be bad. Their world-views are constructed to support this. These people occupy the majority of positions in every organization. Yet - most of each side of the political spectrum still views every organization as simply "good" or "bad". No wonder some see compliance via a mask as a "good" and non-compliance as a "bad". Everything must be simplified and compartmentalized. Posted by: Like A Rock at May 04, 2021 01:37 PM (784ZQ) 367

>>>Anyone can be a "scientist". Not everyone can do engineering.

409 Which is Bill Nye, a scientist or an engineer?
Neither. Media wh0re. Posted by: shibumi at May 04, 2021 01:44 PM (WGXTz) 410 Which is Bill Nye, a scientist or an engineer? Posted by: Bitter Clinger Hard to believe he is, by training, a Mech Eng. Posted by: Tonypete at May 04, 2021 01:44 PM (Rvt8 Yep. Media whore. Also, failed comedian. He was apparently pretty good at making widgets as a mechanical engineer.

Many Asian racists, or there was twenty years ago. Asian on Asian. Asian against Earth.

I would bet Bill Nye has never engineered a damn thing. Nor has he ever done any actual science. He is Foghorn Leghorn sans the charm.

I give you Anthony Fauci as the perfect example of your point. He hasn't done science in 40 years. But he wears the mantle of super-scientist, and the idiots in the media and elsewhere gobble it up.
Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo PhD, Sous Vide Science at May 04, 2021 01:47 PM (Q9lwr) Exactly. The success of science in the last 150 years had induced many people to wrap themselves in the cloak of science. Notice how leftists bleat "follow the science" as a way of convincing people to follow them. Note also such terms as "library science." I assume that that usage meant "science" in the sense of "studies," but still ... Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at May 04, 2021 01:51 PM (ylb9x) 431
Seems both "docs" and "scientists" helped spread the plandemic.
Not blaming you, DJG, just frustration being aired out a bit at a time. Posted by: SMH at May 04, 2021 01:45 PM (Fdh9S) Thank you, but not a problem. I'm frustrated with these same things, also with climastrologists quacking about science, and with virtually ALL "social" scientists.

I firmly believe that the past few years, the rise of toxic social media (especially Twitter), and the dominance of media culture by the far-far-far-far-left, has made it not just "normal" to display your mental illness, but celebrated and maybe even demanded. If you're a super-neurotic bossy Karen who thinks black empowerment is white supremacy and men can have babies, and you're also demonstrably mentally unstable and prone to possible psychotic breaks, then you're a celebrity in 2021.
We haven't just de-institutionalized the mentally ill. We've given them a microphone, a camera, a loaded gun, and the levers of power, and told them to go have fun. Posted by: Moose4 at May 04, 2021 01:55 PM (+VWnP) 434
I used to be on this group that thought we would run out of oil and civilization would collapse. It dawned on me that they were hoping for that. And they wanted it because they didn't like their lives so they wanted some calamity to take them out of it. I still love the woman from MO that told me people would come from Portland and cut down all the trees. She was not happy that I'd told her that the locals would blow the High Bridge and cut off access. As always, Lefties know far more than the people that actually live in an area.

The A-bomb required many scientists (physics) and engineers. The theories are good, but engineers take the theories into reality.
Engineers are simply superior folks. I know this. Posted by: Xipe Totec at May 04, 2021 01:45 PM (o2MD2) I'm not deprecating engineers by any means. They're basically applied physicists. Physicians are basically applied biologists. Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara Most doctors are essentially car mechanics. We just just dont sport an OBD2 port.

Nice to see that even doctors catch up every now and then.

A lot of this is that progressives watch too much of the propaganda channels. It increases their anxiety significantly.
