    “But now lots of additional people are suffering too.”
    Americans getting a taste of their own medicine.

    And it is the only good strategy.
    You may not win the first time but voting for the uniparty with a choice between moving to the extreme-right fast or a bit slower is what got them there.
    I guess your teleologists don’t see that’s the only purpose they are working towards.
    It’s a guaranteed losing strategy and it’s totally their own fault.







  • They need this carefully crafted image in the media of a stupid and crazy maniac.
    His adversaries can underestimate him and he can get out of difficult questions simply by talking gibberish.
    More importantly:
    In the short term he’s president he can act like a loose cannon, make wild moves that wouldn’t be possible under a rational president.
    Even against partner vassal countries.
    And in 2 years they can blame it all on him, of course they will not (be able to) change the beneficial things for the powers behind the curtain.
    The next face will definitely apologize for stealing oil from Venezuela, etc but explain the situation is changed now, contracts with oil companies signed and more excuses to keep this situation in place.

    Every 3rd rate celebrity has people to manage their many social media accounts.
    Do people actually believe he’s coming up with all the crazy tweets or messages?
    The ‘I have all the cards’ one is obvious.
    They chose this game specifically.
    As if there’s nobody in his media team that knows how to play UNO and would let it pass.
    I am not buying the act.






  • purchases I felt I needed

    I’m sorry but I feel that’s a weak excuse.
    Especially if you say you only want to quit now because you don’t like their service.

    I see this a lot with americans, they have little motivation or conviction.
    The political situation is a good example.
    They can barely get themselves to do a half-assed one day strike.
    While in Europe we strike for days and burn the streets fif they even think about doing a fraction of the shit your regime does.
    The No Kings BS, not buying from Wallmart for a day and other embarrassing and futile acts will not do anything.
    You have a mentality problem.
    And it’s only going to get worse until you all grow a spine.
    I wish you good luck (sorry if it sounds hard but it needs to be said)



  • It is respiratory if it’s the Andes Hantavirus, and it is.
    These tourists literally went to the Andes.
    While the first one has an R of 0,8 Andes has an R factor of 2.19 (see article below)
    Anything R>2 has a high risk of large-scale epidemics.
    Even for Covid is was difficult to determine the R-factor but 3.28 to 4.22 is significantly higher than initial WHO estimates of 1.4–2.5.
    And this disease has not been thoroughly studied.
    Another isue I found from this article says it can be transmitted to up to 8 weeks (even if exceptional).
    I only know from NL and Be where the passengers have to quarantine for only 6 weeks.
    And this in their homes.
    This sounds verry risky and irresponsible.
    Except for the passengers that left in St Helens and possible crew members ‘escaping’ the source (ship) was a good opportunity to end this quickly.
    I feel like they’re taking big risks.
    Especially if those quarantined believe the low risk transmissibility narrative.
