OT: American Politics

The irony is that the median age of the Fox news audience is 67 yrs old.

Yeah, it's a pretty crazy litmus test for just how deep the programming runs. "Sacrifice the olds to save the economy" is a message that should fall incredibly flat with Fox viewing (R) voters. How much more specific do they have to get before the olds realize "hey, he's actually talking about me....and I'm not a fan of this"?

If they go for this without significant angry pushback, I don't know if there's anything they won't swallow from Trump.

CDC asking Trump to reconsider home testing without supervision by either a mobile phlebotomist or at bare minimum telemedicine with a qualified professional guiding the sample.

Sounds like Trump is ignoring the request.

Do I feel bad?

Darwinism.

If only this disease had different mortality rates by IQ, not by age...

yeah. there is no way I would opt for a home test. I don't want the result to depend in any way on how well I stuck a swab up my nose. I would doubt any neg result, fearing I did something wrong. I want to be fucking sure. Otherwise, what's the point?

Just a couple thousand away from 400,000. What was that like 2 days?

Trusting these numbers is akin to trusting economic data coming out of the old soviet union or current day North Korea.

I dunno, USA is about to take that stance.

According to US Census, "A third of young people, or 24 million of those aged 18 to 34, lived under their parents’ roof "

So much for low risk.

I feel bad about the fact that he's taking up a hospital bed that more deserving patients are going to need in the near future.

And for all the innocent people this shitbag unwittingly spread the virus to.

Our future folks

We probably have to build a wall at this point, right?

Reposting this because it's as relevant as ever.

I’m trying but the hard part is convincing the virus to enter his body.
