Has anyone heard about the recent allegation that Fauci sexually assaulted someone a few years back? To precisely no one's surprise, it was driven by right wing activists and it has completely unraveled in a hilarious fashion. The specific activist is Jacob Wohl and his "business" partner Burkman who have been caught in a number of these idiotic scams.
The actual story isn't that interesting but what I did find interesting was the formulation of the death cult philosophy that I think is beginning to spread in right wing circles. I think it's quite dangerous.Quote:
"Let me tell you something, Diana," says Burkman. "This guy shut the country down. He put 40 million people out of work. In a situation like that, you have to make up whatever you have to make up to stop that train and that's the way life works, OK? That's the way it goes."
Andrade counters that he and Wohl are not taking COVID-19 seriously. "It's not just any virus. I mean, it's a huge deal.I think you guys think it's something made up, and it's not."
"Mother Nature has to clean the barn every so often," Burkman counters. "How real is it? Who knows? So what if 1 percent of the population goes? So what if you lose 400,000 people? Two hundred thousand were elderly, the other 200,000 are the bottom of society. You got to clean out the barn. If it's real, it's a positive thing, for God's sake."

Holy smokes the last few days worth of posts in this thread did not disappoint! The positive side of Corona is it's given BI posters another outlet to unburden themselves.
Well, they always say there are 325 million people in the US, but has anyone ever seen more than 4 million people? I haven't.Big C said:Unit2Sucks said:

Not that it would alter his opinions, but I suppose this Burkman clown never crunched the numbers on how many people actually constitute 1 percent of the (American) population?
So it's their own admission to this:Big C said:Unit2Sucks said:

One thing I've been thinking about: The Blue Angel flyovers.
This is a national tragedy, but somehow the troops aren't involved.
And doctors, nurses and grocery store workers are getting the "hero" status usually reserved for our military.
So they've tried to assert themselves in the story with the flyovers.

Well, I heard this Republican talking point on the golf course yesterday morning which caused me to research it. I found the first article after I got home. The second article is in the NY Times today. I wonder how if my golfing buddies know Brad Parscale is manipulating them through Facebook and their Evangelical church?

In Trump-speak, fantastic, relative to the other superlatives he has used to praise himself, is quite damning. I think he is admitting to having done a horrible job.Go!Bears said:I would add one. President says he has done a fantastic job... what would a bad job look like?bearister said:
