Twitter -- Which Bans Republican Ads, Bans Conservative Users, and Rates Trump's and Only Trunp's Tweets for Accuracy -- Declares That Chinese Communist Party Disinformation About the US Starting the Wuhan Flu Is Fine, Just Fine
But Alex Jones is still banned, yeah?
Meanwhile, the Corporate "Conservative" (actually: Liberal Leaning Libertarian) media class continues to insist that all leftwing media monopolies can squelch whatever speech they like and blackball any conservatives they want because That's Just the (Neo) American Way.
Coronavirus disinformation spread by senior Chinese government officials does not violate Twitter's terms of service, a spokesperson for the company told The Daily Beast on Monday. The spokesperson pointed to language on its website, which gives wide latitude to statements from government officials. "Presently," the company says, "direct interactions with fellow public figures, comments on political issues of the day, or foreign policy saber-rattling on economic or military issues are generally not in violation of the Twitter Rules."
According to Twitter, that language applies to recent falsehoods related to the novel coronavirus shared widely by senior Chinese officials, including the top spokesman for the country's ministry of foreign affairs and a number of Beijings ambassadors around the world. Those officials and other Chinese propagandists have sought to spread false rumors that COVID-19, a virus that originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan, may have actually started spreading in the United States--and may even have been created by the United States government.

Haven't spent 2 minutes, in several years, reading "replies" from the cretinous unwashed to intelligent analysis or factoid transmission on the twatters.
There are a small number of people worth reading. Even *they* are sometimes fairly idiotic on certain topics - so can be ignored on those.
ace understandably and rightly uses much twatters-idiocy as grist for his mill here. But that's a small sampling, of both the idiotic, and the reasonable, to be found there.
You may now resume wildly universal generalizations.

so oldest ratched was home sick for the last four days. He missed three days of work. "Stay home when you're sick," I told him. You need to be well for 24 hours before you go back.
He goes back to work. They say he needs a medical clearance to return. He goes to a walk in clinic. They won'[t clear him until he gets tested. He goes to the testing place. They won't test him because he doesn't have symptoms.
He can't go to our primary care, because they are too fucking swamped with REAL SICK people to be seeing people who ARE NOT SICK.

I was watching one of the the handful of Youtube channels that I watch (Patrick H. Willems), and his video about the Paddington movies and why they're great (he's 100% right about them, they're wonderful).
Anyway, he's a young guy who lives in NYC, so of course he's a progressive, but he almost never talks politics so it's easy to forget. Anyway, at the end of his Paddington review he went a little political saying that copies of the movie should go to every American and British politician to teach them the values of immigrants.
Yes, Paddington, the polite, endlessly cheerful bear who loves British culture is the perfect analogy for Guatemalans who are coming to America waving their own flags, refusing to learn English, and dreaming of turning America in Guatemala.

Won't happen. I have been giving this some thought, though, and I have an idea that might be possible. It might not help much, but I think it would help some.
Forbid foreign ownership interest in any news organization that does business in the United States. None, at all. No investment, no ownership stake, no funding. Any new organization found to be receiving foreign capital is shuttered. Only US citizens can have ownership interest. If a company has an ownership interest (e.g., Disney owns ABC), the company with that ownership interest must not have any foreign investment. Any news outfit with foreign support has to loudly and boldly proclaim as such at the top and bottom of every article and before and after each commercial break and at the beginning and end of a program.
This would end a lot of the media companies that depend on foreign money but it would also force out foreign influence and improve independence.
This may all be stupid, I dunno. I have just been trying to think of something that can be done and might help.

I believe that.
I could have been easily convinced that this was something escaped from a weapons lab - early on. But honestly - this thing sucks as a weapon. It's just another friggin' bug from them, cut loose over here largely because we refuse to treat them - or anyone else - as an enemy.
We're doing all the damage to ourselves. I wouldn't waste time, if I was ISIS, fucking around with researching bio-weapons. The real way to take us down is through panic. Turns out - it's very damn easy.

Maybe, but cui bono? How does shining a light on the single-source supply chain dependence on China for everything from drug precursors to medical equipment to electronics to chemicals, etc., breakdown of "international" groups like the WHO and the EU, massive people and trade disruptions, etc. help snatch the Globalist cookies out of the jaws of the Nationalist dog?
If anything, globalists and internationalists "talking their book" would be *downplaying* this, not amplifying it. I am not sure I buy that this is deliberate agitation on their part. I do think it is deliberate agitation on the part of the Press - most of whom want us dead by whatever means (and I also think they flat-out lost control of the panic) - but not the globalists/internationalists per se.

This is about the economic assistance package, not the epidemic response, I think.
So the NYC/NY state exposure on virus (by far worst in the country, at the moment) is not a leverage point.
Would love to know the focus grouping and strategery behind this incredible Dem stunt. It surpasses anything I can recall the last 30 years (apart perhaps from O-care, which only caused them minor/temporary pain because the 80% mostly unaffected don't GAF about the millions still devastated by it).
Don't think even many core Dem voters know/care about airline carbon output, but they all know about their brother's small business closing down, their kids' school closing, and their cancelled concert tickets.

I've never seen my husband yell at the television the way he does when he sees Fauci. He loathes him. So do I.
Why do we insist on civilian authority over the military ? Why do we insist on someone that probably knows very little about how to fight a war to boss around those who spend their entire lives studying how to wage war ?
I suggest it's because generals, left to their own devices, would never stop fighting. They're a hammer. The world looks like a nail to them. Nobody ever makes general by handing in a case plan that simply says "Don't fight. Not worth it."
Fauci is the living embodiment of why no group of experts should ever exist without supervision from outside their expertise. Very, very few doctors will ever tell you "don't worry, you're fine as you're gonna' be, and none of us are going to make it out alive".
This fucking devotion to the experts by some around here is, frankly, a shining example of one of the tenants of Progressives - the notion that the elites know so much better than the unwashed masses. I guess some folks really like the idea of a Technocracy.

The expert class is a good description of the modern divide. The expert class consist of compliance officers, administrators, some doctors, most lawyers, consultants, government employees (who really shouldn't be lumped in anything called an expert class), diversity officers, Chief Medical Officers (learned today), and of course your Human Resources Department.
In other words, Democrats.
They sponge off other people's talent and are take advantage of laws and rules created for the sole purpose of taking money away from the doers, the producers, the entrepreneurs, the people who have real actual skills that would be of any service during a time of crisis, so that they can give it to themselves.

You can always tell a person who has never experienced a crisis in their life. First they don the official looking golf shirt with the crisis management logo. Next they throw on a pair of military style work khakis they don't wear well, because it's the first time in their life they ever wore them. Then they start predicting worse case scenarios and marshaling all the resources, whether they're needed or not. Then every press conference refocuses on the worst case scenario and superfluous nonsense meant to cause concern, but couched in language how the government cares about you, and if you only did exactly what they say, it may save your life.
Forget a few months ago they were cheering about killing babies up until they're coming out of the birth canal, they completely stomped on your ability to protect yourself with the Second Amendment, that they spent precious taxpayer resources, millions in fact, pursuing the president by using the AG as a political tool, they banned plastic bags, gerrymandered more districts to create a permanent Democrat majority, did zero to reduce the highest state taxes in the nation, declined in 2015 to purchase the respirators the state need, keeps sucking up more federal aid for his political wish list and I could go on and on and on.
Cuomo is the worst of the worst, and now that it's time to actually do is job, all of a sudden they're throwing palms at his feet.

There have been 5 deaths in Texas, with over 10,000 people tested - 352 confirmed cased and 33 confirmed cases in Dallas county.
I am not sure this means what that Dallas county judge thinks it means.

In Texas, the only power a County Judge really has is during times of disaster. Floods are always a good time for the County Judge to get out there. But a pandemic. This is truly a once in a lifetime (soon to be more often) time for the County Judge to hold news conferences.

In Texas, these county judges are the 'mayor' of the unincorporated parts of the county. The term 'judge' is more of an honorific than a bench / court position.
Sometimes the incorporated parts work with the county judge and sometimes they do not.

Well, I guess that will trigger mass incidences of psychopathy, since getting locked inside, losing everything monetarily, and watching the criminal mismanagement of our government will help along the rage-strokes.

That is tough because a good boss can make work bearable, even pleasant, and a bad one can make it just miserable every day. I guess it depends on how many other opportunities there are in your area, what money you need to have (family etc) and how much of a direct influence this guy has on your career.
For example, if you're solo and don't have a lot of expenses, maybe you can change careers or move to some other place.
Or if you have the opportunity you can move to a competitor, or at least a different department away from this workplace cancer.
There might be a slim chance that if you get to know the guy you can find a way to work with him and he'll be less annoying, but that's usually not the case.
