Again you betray your ignorance of US politics. Pretend that you're a Democrat and you want something done. Ready? Go!

Picture yourself on a cold marble floor fellating Chuck Shumer. He tells you to never break eye contact then throws a napkin at your face as he turns around to zip up and leave. You go to the bathroom and you stare at the mirror and you look at yourself and you sigh as you make your way to Nanci Pelosi's office where you will pleasure her with your tongue for hours.

Do you think you will have a better or worse taste in your mouth from that versus the orange asscrack? Discuss.

You're splitting hairs. Would you like me to claim the Roman Empire only lasted 10 centuries and forget about the other conservative non-progressive offshoots it spawned, that's fine. 10 centuries then. Just because the Romans adopted some of the aspects of the liberal and progressive Greeks doesn't make them so, it makes them utilitarian.

Conservatism is always better because slow deliberate change over time produces tons less bodies in the end. This is why most people become more conservative as they age. Because they realize stability is more important. You want to raise your family, to improve your lot, and to have a good solid stable social life because that's what makes humanity happen. Then some real smart people who are very urgent happen along and they have all these great untested ideas where no one has ever thought about secondary or tertiary effects and then you wind up with a giant mass grave and everything is on fire. Ooops!

Schools are fine if asymptomatic carriers don't transmit?

Did they ever make up their mind on that part of the covid lore?

Roman patricians were senatorial rank (meaning you had to have had a senatorial ancestor at the formation of the republic to be a patrician) almost until the era of Marius. Not at all a progressive society, their anti-monarchist thinking seems progressive, but they were slave owning, militaristic, basically Starship Troopers (the book) but set in the past as opposed to the future. Don’t impugn Rome, pussies delenda est

Political liberalism and cultural conservatism are actually the way to go. Sadly, it’s hard to find a balance that doesn’t go from Erdogan in 2003 to erdogan in 2020. Or Poland’s trajectory post communism. It will take nuance and open mindedness, those things are in short supply

Also "racist" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTRKCXC0JFg
Everything you say ignores the HUGE numerical disparity between how other countries have fared against the pandemic vs us, yes even if you account for population size and show it as per capita.

dumb fuck.

Must have touched a nerve. Have you talked to somebody about where you were harmed?

Fort bend ISD and soon Katy ISD (massive suburban Houston school districts that outperform most public schools) are not holding in person classes. Those are republican leaning suburbs. I’m gonna go with regardless of what the science says, no one is taking the risk of sending their kids back to school

We’re preparing to homeschool the grandkids out at the ranch. By we I mean my wife, I work on two weeks off two weeks for danish cock suckers putting up wind turbines out in west Texas
