Do what the government tells you to. They know best.

Sounds the like opinion of a commie.

I hope you don't serve in any public office, because you are a moron. Mask wearing isn't political, you cockroach. It's scientifically shown to reduce transmission. lol "the government", tired of that fucking trope, boomer.

Next.

The why is Kamala Harris our Vice President if political office requires intelligence?

How was George Herbert Walker Bush Junior - the Terrorist of New India - U.S. President if the prerequisite is INTELLIGENCE.

Sweden didn't have to lock down because they aren't Americans. Average Americans are dumb as fucking fuck. Wearing a mask isn't the same as being a slave, as being told to do do by a Nazi regime, or anything else. It's laughably pathetic. We could have avoided most lockdowns entirely if people just wore masks and distanced, but no, "muh freedoms". But apparently being asked to wear a mask to prevent the spread of a disease to your fellow citizen is too much. Fucking dumbasses.

While simultaneously blaming government for all societal ills.

Not all, just most. Misery, depression, poverty, hatred, dirty laundry, lies, truths about things that don't matter - All these things come from your government, which owns all of your Associated "Psychology-Games" Press and lives in your head all the time rent-free.

The LORD of Hosts will erase their memories faster than a crackhead paid to erase a chalkboard.

It was the corporate socialism of Bush/Obama/Trump (bailouts) that sold me on printing money to help actual people too. Really, though, it's been obvious since FDR's era and the booming of planned economies overseas which toppled the world order virtually overnight.

Recent years though have demonstrated the durability of the dollar even running a massive deficit, and that our aristocrats won't let their own fortunes die on principle...why should I go without medical care in service of a lie? When access to medical care is unfree and is locked behind a state accreditation mafia in the first place. An accreditation mafia that's been used to exploit human psychology by hiding costs from the consumer in order to drain disgusting amounts of money from our economy. Medicare at least allows me to purchase medicine freely by a roundabout means, thereby sorta returning freedoms to me in a facsimile form anyhow.

The WW2 era and beyond has proven beyond all doubt that the libertarian fantasy is ded and such a scoiety will be swallowed up or manipulated heavily by better-organized civilizations. A superstructure is necessary to protect and optimize our commercial machine. A machine which I don't think is in good shape at all right now with stupidity run rampant and a disillusioned population poisoned by our oligarchs' fast food and pills etc etc. Compare our average 22-year-old to the average 22-year-old Japanese. How can we possibly maintain our position? Intervention is needed. An ethos beyond the "give them what they want" of capitalism is necessary if you don't want our society to be a big fat 1% tick draining all of the economic output of the rest in exchange for oxy and mcdonalds.

Not that I have an awful lot of faith in the government which is conjured out of us, but it is obvious that powerful states are a feature of the future of the developed world. Probably a rhetorical question though, eh? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Or, for you atheists, if it makes you feel better: And every lamb was slain, and all the fowls of the air feasted on their carcasses.
