#1 The white privileged obviously reject government bread and circuses.

#2 And the "non-whites" do not want to bite the hand that feeds them, perhaps?

#4 /\ Article from 'The Sun.'

Democrat's NEW PAY DAY bill could give Americans $2,000 monthly coronavirus stimulus checks for up to 90 days after pandemic

The Act is being pitched by Senators Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders and Ed Markey.

If the legislation is passed, Americans who make less than $120,000 would receive a monthly check of $2,000.

Married couples who file their taxes together would receive $4,000 and $2,000 would be provided for each child up to three.

#5 The non-whites are protesting too. Media just reports it differently.

#7 /\ Hastening the inevitable? Perhaps this entire CV-19 event was little more than an live fire exercise.

#8 All racism, all the time.

F---ing liars. In California, Whites and Asians generally have been FAR more affected by this than Latinos.

CDC's ethnic data adjusts for density and other factors and shows that white Californians have TWICE the propensity of Latinos to die a COVID-related death as Hispanic Californians:

Group....% COVID-Attrib'd Deaths...Weighted % CA pop..
Hispanics......................30.1%...........46.6%
Non-Hisp. Whites.........40.2%........... 28.3%

Only by dishonestly sorting the data can one conclude that Hispanics, who are the dominant population in LA by far, are unduly harmed by COVID. In fact, they're the ones unduly hurt by the lockdown.

Russia's $600k in Facebook ads over a year didn't "sow division" anywhere near as much as every one of these lying bastards does with every hysterical "rayciss!!" screaming headline and faux-analysis they publish each day.

#9  In other states, including Michigan, protesters have shown up at government buildings carrying rifles.

It's when they show up with crew-served weapons that you know you've gone too far with the governor's orders thing. According to a friend.

#11 When you don't have anything better to say, play the race card.

#12 That the sign of normalcy, or - at least - business as usual, returning?

#14 But we can always count on the LA Slimes to stoke the fires of racial and political divisions.

#15 Re the LA Slimes article, note how little "analysis" of, y'know, actual evidence or data these four cub reporters provide in the course of some 5,000 words. Again and again they make a claim - "rayciss!!" - and then pivot quickly to a series of man-on-the-street impressions or tendententious academics' quotes. It's nothing more than series of incoherent slurs flung at whitey.

#16 When Newsom places an order too stop crime during this pandemic,they'll be out there.

#17 I believe it was the mayor of Chicago that criticized her citizens for continuing to commit crimes during an epidemic.
