Looks like the radical, murdering, lying left crapping on our free speech and Constitution are going to finally start suffering. This is is only the beginning.

Next bombshell coming is political espionage charges to Big Tech. A bunch of friggen nerds and their brainwashed followers dictating the flow of information and policing any anti-Chinese rhetoric was such a foolish overreach. Thank you for being so prideful in your position. Pride always comes before the fall.

you might want to give this a read, especially this bit:

"The legal protections in subsections (c)(1) and (c)(2) are completely independent of one another. There is no basis in the language of Section 230 to qualify (c)(1)’s immunity on platforms obtaining immunity under (c)(2). "

What do these conspiracy people look like in real life?

Do they save it up for online interaction where they can spout unfettered?

For example, I am not a pedantic know it all in the real world.

Ok, maybe I am but whatever.

A know it all who tries to keep his mouth shut is still really annoying.

Couple that with being part jew, it's hopeless.

My pandemic improved greatly this morning with the first proper warm summer- like day, and even some fun little wind swell and a surprise north wind all morning. It was forecast to be side shore then onshore. All of my head scratching about how to go on adventures and make the most of my near total (hopefully) short term financial disintegration, done. I am now officially in one of the best places, relatively, to ride out the rest of this thing. I’m not even much of a “beach sitter” but I sure as sh!t will be for the next few months

One of these threads had some discussion about long-term societal changes, as a result of this experience..... I'm too lazy to go find it, but a new emphasis on frugality does not sound like a bad thing.

No, but it's gonna fuck sh!t up for tax revenue (70% consumer economy or something), and banks are gonna make even more money than ever, unless we go back to stuffing mattresses. It's gonna hurt for a while.

Watching the riots and protests on TV we can seen social distancing is fckin OVER.

The weird thing is how a few weeks ago the media was whining about the "open up" protestors spreading the virus.

No whining from the media about protestors and rioters spreading the virus though.
