Re: I'm shocked, shocked! that most Americans don't want the cities burned to the ground

Just saw a poll from Reuters/Ipsos, "The survey conducted on Monday and Tuesday found 64% of American adults were “sympathetic to people who are out protesting right now,” while 27% said they were not and 9% were unsure."

Re: Hold onto yer gold

I think it would be wildly cool if a new-generation-MLK got inner cities to boycott committing crimes in place of riding buses. That would stick it to the man SO HARD. Police presence would evaporate.

Re: Lockdowns, where effective and where not

We should be able to see the new outbreaks as a result of the flagrant Memorial Day weekend celebrating. Are they happening? Serious question. Possibly the only potential good that can come from the rioting is that if there are no new outbreaks in any of the cities where the rioting occurred, we ca...

Re: Another angle on the recent events in America and the world

Yesterday when I was not socially distancing from people I was telling them my theory; Antifa's plan this time around is to seed riots by harnessing the mob mentality. Whereas before it would be a big crowd of Antifa rioting (in Portland, for example), it looks like this time they waited until a mob...

Re: Is Trump doing a good job?

Just saw that the God Emperor wants to designate Antifa as a terror organization (I don't think he can, but his heart's in the right place).

:D

On the other side of the spectrum, Joe Biden's campaign is donating to an organization that is posting bail for rioters in Minneapolis.

Re: Is Trump doing a good job?

We need both forces. If one uses a car as an analogy then liberals would be like the gas and conservatives would be like the brakes. You can't have just one without the other and hope to get down the road. PS had a good notion when he talked about how we work better when the niches of each politica...

Re: Is Trump doing a good job?

Good points. I like the description of conservativism as being skeptical of innovations, because most innovations are failures. OTOH a lot of the progress western civilization has made has happened against the resistance of conservatives. If it weren't for liberals, we would still be ruled by Kings...

I might be hopelessly out of date, but is there a reason you don't feed your pets fresh food? Or is it that canned food is much better in the US?

Re: Coronavirus and bloodtype

It makes sense that different blood types have benefits and drawbacks (pluses and minuses, if you will), that would help explain why there are different types.

And good for the Os, they're the ones susceptible to cholera. I'm B+, I'm not aware of any benefits other than a positive message.
