"More Red-State Trouble, U.S. looks increasingly like two different countries"

I'm sure glad Stretch is quoting an article by a fictional character. It really adds gravitas to the website.

:rofl2::rofl2:

Vaccines are causing an outbreak. ROTFLFMAO!!!! Can anyone be that fucking stupid? I guess stretch can. If you are puzzled, maybe just think it through.

The United States is very obviously two different nations trying with no success whatever to share the same borders and the same government.

We seem to be choosing dystopia over partition, and we'll regret it for certain.

I'm NOT. We're fucked because of it.

I simply give examples where we choose to accept risk and where we do not. And told you that I believe that even risk to me does not change this. I believe the government should educate rather than bootjack folks into something. If folks won't do what you want because they think the risk is worth it, then you are going to need to live with their decision. Vaccinate and protect yourself is my advice, because I do not believe you will be successful in your quest for authoritarian government forcing vaccinations and/or protection from the unvaccinated.

I do not believe that Americans will be happy in a land of "show me your papers"...

You think wrong. And no one is saying the government should mandate vaccines. That's a strawman. I would happily visit any restaurant, sporting event, movie theater, or other venue that banned the unvaccinated. It should be happening right now, and in your quest for 'Freedom' you have assured that it will. So congrats.

Um... I have gotten the vaccine, I was one of the testers...

I did that so you, yes you personally (and others like you), would not be so afraid. Fear is a mind killer, as you demonstrate here, nothing in this post says you are brilliant. I prefer to allow other folks, all folks really, to be able to choose what happens to their own bodies, even if it brings along with it some risk to me. Much like seatbelts and a zillion other things... I prefer to have risk over Authoritarian Government, and I will vote that way every single time.

So, you have been vaccinated with the COVID vaccine. Whatever happened to "Living with danger"? And your excuse is so 'others' would not be afraid?
BWWWAAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!! Do you really expect me (and others like me) to believe that? That's got to be the
lamest reason to get vaccinated in the history of the world. I could give a shit if you got vaccinated. No sweat off my balls. But keep believing that you getting vaccinated made me (and others like me - I'm assuming you mean other Americans) less afraid. Whatever helps you sleep at night, Damo.

And where are all these 'Government Authoritarians' who are FORCING Americans to get vaccinated. Personally, the Government didn't have to tell me to get the vaccine.
I got it as soon as it was available. Nobody forced me. I was one of the first in line. All this bullshit about Government Overreach is just a silly far right wing scare tactic.
They never miss the chance to tell their minions that the Boogey Man is out to get them and they need RepubliQans to save them. Why? Because it works for them as their voters have proven over and over again.

At least we agree about Authoritarian Governments. You know, the type of Government that King Trump was striving to achieve (and still is).

Still 98.9% recovery rate and better than the rest of the most-vaxxed countries in the world. Get a life.

Get a life? 617,000 Americans dead! Tell them to Get a Life, Gomer.

And? I was simply giving the person an example of a story they may have wanted to post rather than a link that went nowhere. Seriously, do you think you made "gotcha" points here? I helped some dude find a link to a story that had a title much like his, that's it.

It's not an excuse it is reality. Regardless. I still support others right to reject it too. They are less afraid, my action was not for them.

I've been through this argument before with another poster. My motivations may be different than yours, but they are understandable to anyone except a sociopath.

I got to choose something, you get to choose something, the reason I do it whether or not you would for that same reason is not what is up for debate. That is what I support, folks get to choose.

And the "Authoritarians" you can't find are the ones clapping over fascist rules in France and hoping for more of them here.

Well I certainly HOPE so. Geeeeesh. Kind of senseless if people can't tell the difference and make choice. It's the American way. LOL

You are insane


You can’t admit you were wrong no matter how many truckloads of boulders of truth are dumped on your tiny brain



Bot or not


You are inhuman

Right, I have long argued here that New York & California are mostly Republican majority in it's White Christian origin population.
But because of minorities it props up the Democrats in those states.
