Volourn Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 "Policy always come down from the top, if they don't feel safe giving their opinion on something is likely because they're not allowed to give their opinion on something" Ireevant spamming response by you. His example had NOTHING to do with 'the top' but one cop who could not handle his job so he murdered someone who had the AUDACITY to call the cops for help. LMAO What an evil woman - asking the police to do their job. VILE. She got off easy. :rollseyes: But, yeah, go ahead and blame 'the top' for that cop's actions.

Guard Dog Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Those who have been following the "shut down crisis" know Governors Newsome in CA and Whitmer in MI have gone a bit power mad. The barber who defied Whitmer had his business license revoked at Whitmer's personal order. As far as anyone knows that is the first time since George Wallace of Alabama personally revoking a business license. The Democrats are quickly become the American version of the Jacobins.

I am in California and I'm not sure where the power mad examples are. For the most part, cities and counties are making their own decisions with guidance from the State. In fact the whole kerfuffle with Elon Musk over Tesla was that the county and city were dragging their feet behind what the state was doing. The governor eased restrictions on May 4th, but not all counties followed suit. Santa Clara County just went into phase 2 today, which is where I live. Honestly it's been fairly smooth. Our grocery stores are well stocked and people have been out on the trails enjoying nature. Small businesses are doing takeout all over town. Is there a couple yahoos yelling about freedom on street corners because they are supposed to wear masks in stores and can't get a haircut? Sure. edit: Of course, we knew all along there are only two outcomes here. You don't do enough and a bunch of people die, or you flatten the curve and people whine about losing their rights. There is no middle ground. Anyways, we aren't exactly out of the woods yet. Edited May 18, 2020 by Hurlshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComradeYellow Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 https://www.rt.com/russia/489076-russian-citizenship-foreigners-grow/ Extremely temping at this point. I don't really see much hope for this foul genocidal ultra-expansionist landmass unless we get a regime change (preceded by another Civil War with millions dead). I'm wondering if Conservatives felt this way at this point in Obama's reign, I never cared for Obama but they seemed extremely distraught during his Presidency for what I perceived as bizarre and weird reasons. Obama always just struck me as a do-nothing clown common amongst any politician who runs in either party so perhaps I can take solace in the fact that Trump is probably the Republican version of that. Still, it's alarming how many people here are being infected by his vitriolic stupidity. People watching Fox News and reading Breitbart and taking it as Gospel, therein is the danger here. As rhetoric becomes more toxic (even if policy more or less remains the same), it's just aggregating the polarization and causing more distress and we all know where that can lead.

Volourn Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 "He's right on that particular issue though, @Volourn" Even racists can be right. A racist might use the fact that most school shooters are white or a racist might use the fact that blacks commit the most crimes compared to their actual % of the population. Both are facts but both can be stated by racists or even non racists. Facts are facts. P.S. Quebec is one of the most racist evil countries in the world. Avoid at all costs.

Even if it could, we'll never be as powerful as we once were, imo.

I'd call myself economic left but socially moderate, but there's no political capital for that here in the U.S. currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
