| #17 The problem is that this particular virulent strain is taking a very long time to perish with the host and thus die out. COVID took about 18 months; this social pathogen that reappeared in 6 B.F. (= 6 years Before The Year of Our Floyd) may take 18 years. We're only 6 years in. |

| #16 Not everyone is a True Believerâ„¢ on Twitter 24/7 burnishing their Woke credentials. The smash and grab mobs aren't. The rappers stabbing and shooting each other aren't. The kids shooting each other in Chiraq are not listening to Rachel Madcow or AOC. They are purely atavistic and the people who imagine they are harnessing them are in for a nasty surprise. Everyone else knows better and stands out of the way. |

| #13 Freud got it right. A new religious cult: "If you wish to expel religion from our European civilization you can only do it through another system of doctrines, and from the outset this would take over all the psychological characteristics of [religious cults], the same sanctity, rigidity, and intolerance, the same prohibition of thought in self-defence." |

| #12 ^ Well, that's a nice doomsday screed. Yes, I am sure the self-anointed Progressives watching MSLSD are all in favor of executing the un-vaccinated. Problem is, an equal number of us are not buying the hysterics and don't care. We might even be the sorts who will help the "enemies of the people" get through their days and earn livings. We might even be the sort who subvert things in other ways. |

| #11 Peter Hitchens last week: ...we have entered a new stage of the revolution which has been transforming this country, for the past 60 years, into a multicultural, Green, post-Christian, sexually liberated and egalitarian state in which only one opinion is, in reality, allowed. Covid, quite unexpectedly, has provided the pretext for so much of what they have long wanted: surveillance, social control, the driving of dissent to the margins of life. For, if dissent can be portrayed as actually dangerous to the health of the people, then why should the people put up with it? |

| #10 /\ Yes, there certainly does appear to be a disconnect. |

| #9 As long as Biden allows unchecked border crossings I have a hard time believing the danger of covid. |

| #8 A little extra data to chew on? Check out NORMAL PLUS COVID DEATH RATES Note: This article is a year old and the current figures further discredit the DC Panic BS data. |

| #7 The scam has burned down. Now, if they want to make "Do what we say or die" stick, they'll have to move from passive to active methods. |

| #5 Can these f--king idiots try, just TRU, to get this basic equation through their heads: More infectious Less lethal = ENDEMIC |

| #4 A team of researchers at Hong Kong University’s faculty of medicine found omicron replicates 70 times faster in human airways, but infection in the lungs appears less severe. |

| #3 In other words, it's now endemic. Not a pandemic. F--king idiots... can't even grasp basic evolutionary biology |
