The Trump Pandemic

[Animavore]

A white man who got so upset at being asked to wear a mask in a Lyft driver’s car ended up going on a racist and homophobic rant and was later banned by the service.

In a video recorded on May 28 by the driver Edgar, the man who identified himself as Richard entered the car without a mask. Edgar asked Richard to put on a mask or lift his shirt over his mouth and Richard refused.

The Trump pandemic keeps spreading.

Good that the Rally was a flop. The effect will not as bad as it might've.

What have you been smoking? The rally was a great success despite the fact that Antifa-Democrats went down the road of criminal sabotage by booking tens of thousands of RSVPs of invites to exclude genuine Trump supporters.

But to be fair, Trump is rather naive and easily led by the Deep State operatives that have surrounded him since day one. For example, why did he carry over so many bureaucrats from the previous administration? Why did he appoint so many back-stabbers? Why does he still hang on to that demonic entity Fauci? Etc. He is rather gullible & trusting... and such people don't survive.

The other possibility is that he's a disinfo agent; the puppet that ALL presidents are. Simply obeying orders

As a stand up comic, it was getting really boring. Trump is telling the same stories about Democrats (abortion, Biden etc.) for the fifth year in a row. They still pile in to listen to him. Even with coronavirus in the arenas. In Tulsa he rambled on to talk about Brazil and the virus and going "herd" (herd immunity) after rambling about stock markets. And Obama is still "giving Iran 150 billion dollars." It was the Iranians' own money frozen in bank accounts.

So, it's churches and meat factories spreading the thing. I guess the virus wouldn't have a chance in a world of vegan atheists. If only atheism+ would had been more successful... ^^

Atheism was ruined by the encroachment of the '+'. It's a common enough pattern. You can see it play out in other groups now.

It's like watching the same tactics again and again, after awhile.

Even the Roman Empire and Atlantis were already brought down from being powerful empires and advanced civilzations to mere rubble by intersectional feminism and gender studies.

Yeah, it had a glorious future, but was destroyed from within by those horrible plussers!! They completely discredited atheism and doomed it to forever remain just a fringe affectation of the weak-minded. You are so right. They're coming for the rest of the world next, using those same insidious and unstoppable tactics. Quail before their mighty weapons of political correctness and vicious back-biting!

On the other hand it might have been popular atheists tweeting about honey and people getting bored of the atheism hype and looking for the next one.

By adding the '+', they diluted the community. Check the numbers if you think it was otherwise.

You might like that they jammed in feminism, but not everyone did. Nearly a fifth of people are in favour of feminism, but the discussions pretty much exclude anyone from the other four-fifths.

It's like BLM now...they try to get everyone together by agreeing on the one principle (that black lives matter), then later jam in something about trans issues, which are supported by a small minority.

But woe betide anyone who doesn't agree with ALL of their collected issues...

[Svartalf]

don't laff so hard, there might be something to that, already, the most prestigious institutions of learning have turned into evil jokes by having treated racial and gender "studies" as worthwhile and serious disciplines.

They can get a bit precious, tedious and silly at times, but I don't see them as a real worry...

[NineBerry]

If they have economics departments, having gender studies cannot make it worse

Weinstein, who along with his (also-tenured) wife was driven out of Evergreen, has spent much time afterward trying to explain what a real worry it is.

A sort of a trickle down...not working:

First up, consumer spending. Typically, Chetty said, recessions are driven by a drop in spending on durable goods, like refrigerators, automobiles and computers. This recession is different. It's driven primarily by a decline in spending at restaurants, hotels, bars and other service establishments that require in-person contact. We kinda already knew that. But what the team's data show is that this decline in spending is mostly in rich ZIP codes, whose businesses saw a 70% drop-off in their revenue. That compares with a 30% drop in revenue for businesses in poorer ZIP codes.

Second, jobs. This 70% fall in revenue at businesses in rich ZIP codes led those businesses to lay off nearly 70% of their employees. These employees are mostly low-wage workers. Businesses in poorer ZIP codes laid off about 30% of their employees. The bottom line, Chetty said in his presentation, is that "reductions in spending by the rich have led to loss in jobs mostly for low-income individuals working in affluent areas.

Sour grapes from a disgruntled academic is not a compelling argument...
