    why would you ever need to drive fast. if you hold up everyone in the road then everyone's late to work, and they can't fire us all

    they also can't make all of us pay our taxes

    In contrast, SARS-CoV-2 was a brand new virus that no one had encountered before; therefore, masking and isolation only slowed its transmission, but did not stop it.

    why are "science" articles always full of false statements

  • I've posted on social media about how it's fucked up that more money is going to Isntreal than to hurricane relief, and libs are saying that's a "right wing talking point" without explanation. Why?

    Because both parties donate to Istrael, and both parties deny relief to poor Americans. The problem for the democrats is that their base isn't toxic enough to enjoy the deprivation of others for its own sake, while republicans have done away with any facade of being decent and will (mostly truthfully) imagine that the aid is being denied to black people and other non-white people

    more broadly the liberal wing is a bunch of rich people who want to pretend to help other people, instead of rich people who want to openly kill people

    And like any social system, it exists within the broader context of our social structure, divided into its economic base and the superstructure, as part of the superstructure. And as we should all understand by now, the superstructure is shaped by the based

    And the base also shapes the superstructure.

    Yeah, but no one cares any more to my knowledge.

    if racism against Black/Brown people exists, it also exists (to a lesser extent) against people who pass as Black/Brown

    If you're applying to buy a house, they can see your name is Salvatori Giupetti
    If you're walking down the street, they just see a Latino

    both. Some people (of all races) would treat him better bc they mistake him for white, and everything nice and good they know is white, bc whites have had all the money/land since 1492

    Some white people would treat him better not only because of the above implicit bias association, but consciously and explicitly because he's "one of their own", and this would be "evil" racism

    I'm sensitive to the bug, deathly. So I isolate myself completely from society. I have the financial privilege to be able to do this, but only barely It works, the best year of my life was 2023 and I've only been mildly ill in 2024 (counts are much higher now and prior to this I'd almost die every year) Does anyone know of anybody else who's isolating like this, or communities (forums, discord servers) that support it? Go live on some rural parcel and sell dairy and never go anywhere else for the rest of your life (sounds fine to me unironically)

    informal anecdotal data gathering 1. Do you regularly consume a CBD-containing product (Marijuana, CBD oil, medical marijuana, etc) Please be specific about strain 2. Have you been infected by COVID, how long did it last, and what were your symptoms? I'll go first: 1) No 2) Yes, in March 2020, it lasted a month to a year depending on where you draw the line between long-COVID and acute COVID. Symptoms were fatigue, chills, high heartbeat, and a lower quantity of pee

    For example, I'd like to see a bell curve of VO2max for a bunch of randoms in 2024, and compare it to the same thing in 2018 or prior. Anyone know where to get data like this?

    Back in February 2020: "There's no need to wear masks. Feel free to use the subway." Quotes might be a bit off, but Fauci's words basically amounted to this I've seen people try to write this off as "not wanting to start a panic" and "trying to secure masks for hospitals" but that's just a copout. If they'd initiated a lockdown sooner millions of people wouldn't have died. They killed them on purpose because they were elderly and didn't serve the machine. Also millions of people wouldn't have gotten long-COVID with nearly as bad a viral load.

    I skipped the years 2006 - 2017 to make the change look more obvious I recommend viewing it full screen and glancing back and forth between different years 2002 was a freak hot year In the 2000s you see a lot of yellow and green interlaced into the summer nights, and much less dark red. You also see much more blue in the winters It took only 18 years to get to this point (the difference between the median years of the two data sets), and since it's always faster than expected, we probably got ~9 years for the next equivalent amount of change, and then ~4 years for the next one after that, except it's probably even faster than this so ima say 3 years till the nukes fly

    1) How "planned" was the economy? What are some examples that demonstrate its "plannedness" compared to current states like China? 2) Why did it fail? 3) How good was the standard of living?
