If by “flying drones” you mean watching cuck pr0n (your reference, not mine), then yeah, you’ll be in your basement.

Thanks! It’s gonna be awesome.

I'm sorry. You're confusing me with another internet fight you must be having.

I've never uttered the word cuck in my life.

Meanwhile they’re injecting botox in their faces, what, every other week? And anyone over 50 there has had their face sliced up, lots of plastic, etc. Unnecessary cosmetic procedures, no problem but a 90% vaccine for disease and to help the country…whoa, that’s really a big decision, not sure about that one ..please

We won’t talk about the cuck jab you threw on the board yesterday. You and Gordie, with his tired Fox News jab, are a joke. That’s all you have: Orange Man lied, and everyone who questions Fauci or SCieNcE is a moron, sprinkled with some sexual harassment. Talk about agenda driven projection!

Brah, Fauci keeps moving the goal posts and never gives a straight answer. The guy has a 30+ year history of misleading the American people for his own personal gain (clout, prestige, brunch after filming MTP, whatever). It’s all about him. People like you and many of our elected officials fawn over this guy while the critical thinkers among us, including his colleagues from nearly 40 years ago, recognize his incompetence (while calling the “strip mall docs” idiots; turns out they were right). You really think he stayed in government service for the good of the American people? My guess is job security.

We wouldn’t be dredging up old reports that clearly illustrate who the guy is if we didn’t think we could bring you into the light. Turns out we can’t. You guys are entrenched! Sorry, brah. Good luck hiding in your basement for the next 18 months. Hopefully Biden and Fauci give the all clear by then. The science says it’s time to move on from this. My family and I will be enjoying life, vaccinated and flying in the middle seat (we’ll wear our masks tho, unlike John Kerry).
I thought you’re a free thinker. Think about this really hard. Even if it was true, which it’s not, that back in March he actually did say that you shouldn’t wear masks because they don’t work, you can’t put two and two together?? Even if this was the reality we are in, which it’s not, that hey maybe he made a mistake but knowing what you know now and everyone around the world wearing masks and following universal health guidelines, that you have a completely moot point? Do you even know what was said on that day or are you going off the spin that you feed on? You’re not actually free thinking correctly, which is to make a rational decision. You’re making your decision based on the hate for one guy because he represents the antithesis to all your notions about the pandemic. You’re even talking about the poor guys life. It’s not just him, every health official is saying the same thing.

That is nothing more than your opinion.

Any “news” source that doesn’t have journalists, is entertainment. Just a year ago Fox News used the “no reasonable person could believe this show was factual”(paraphrase) defense for Tucker.

CNN and MSNBC have their own problems too.

I cannot understand how you can continue to stick with that "Fauci only said don't wear masks because of the shortage" storyline when faced with the overwhelming evidence that he, like literally every other health official in the country and every other "study" done up until then, concluded masks were not effective (or necessary if you prefer) when worn by the entire population in community setting (outside of, say, a healthcare facility).

This is what he said back then - "Now people should not be walk— there's no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you're in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it's not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And often there are unintended consequences. People keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face." Keep in mind at the same time, CDC and WHO were also saying "There is no added health benefit to the general American public to wear a respiratory protective device, such as an N95 respirator."

Serious question (which I already know you won't address let alone answer) - if all he was worried about was a shortage of N-95s, why not recommend the cloth masks back then? Worried about an underwear shortage?

Can you list the five or six countries that you think had the best response to Covid? Honest question so please no snark just list them.

Thanks.

Maddow had the same legal defense in a recent lawsuit. Like you said it is incumbent on the viewer to recognize self proclaimed biased opinion shows are entertainment and not journalism. The problem comes in when the personal biases make their way in obvious fashion into supposed “straight” news shows (as opposed to those opinion shows). This is where past mainstream and respectable news sources have been failing the past few years. In the past if anything you should see your news anchor actively struggling to compensate for their personal political leanings when presenting the news. Lately it’s been all too easy to give in. Again I’m talking about non opinion programs. Serious journalists (like the late Tim Russert) neutrally present both sides and let viewer decide..... Democrats claim this.... Republicans counter saying that..... here’s some interviews asking tough questions of both sides... now you decide. You can’t even get that from the network news anchors these days in prime time. That’s the problem!
