He's saying Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and what he calls the "Do Nothing" Democrats are on "vacation," it wasn't aimed at any one else who is quarantined.

The **** is that dweeb on about? Were people trying to shoot the infected and now Virginia is outlawing guns?

Remember a few days ago when Trump said he was going to have these states open back up because he has total authority? This is him throwing a tantrum because he doesn't actually have that authority. It seems it's a call to violence.

Propaganda! Lies and propaganda!

Edit: BTW, you do a much better Trump than me.

I forgot that there was a free thing out there to make Trump tweets. Thanks for reminding me. :laughing:

I liked when he was asked what kind of tactics he would use to confront whatever crisis and he pointed to his head and said "THESE tactics."

I've had it bookmarked for three years.

LOL I didn't see that part.

These are hilarious

would've been better if he grabbed his crotch

lolololololol

He would so have my loyalty forever if he did that.

"These tacDICKS"

Lol x3

Mitch McConnell said he supports allowing states to declare bankruptcy.

I looked at several articles and didn’t get a clear answer to my first question which is: Would that mean they wouldn’t have to be pay pensions for state workers? Several articles mention pensions but none said directly bankruptcy could be used to not have to pay pensions.

I know that corporations have filed bankruptcy and never paid promised pensions even after they became solvent again. Some auto-workers who worked for 30 plus years never got their pensions. I’m sure that caused plenty of suicides.

Man if he’s in Muslim Heaven he’s laughing his ass off.

Vietnam hasn’t had a single death.

They closed school in Jan.

They have a one party Leninist communist government.

I’ve been there. You can read whatever you want. You can listen to jazz records all day if you want.

“But it’s not a democracy - we’re free - we can vote”

Corona has been spreading slowly in the tropics in general.

Yeah. I’ve been following that. Never thought I’d say this but bring on that Florida sun son if it’s true and it’s starting to look like it might be - it might be mutated strains of the virus

It might have something to do with living in apartments and recirculated air

Maybes and mights

Many viruses are unstable in heat

That’s why you run fevers

tbh I didn’t totally discount the guy at the Florida somewhere city council who said use a hairdryer to heat up your nose

Totally unscientific but so is pretty much everything else so far

Aren't they actually socialist? Like, they're Marxist so they believe they need to become socialist before becoming communist so just like China they plan on being communist but aren't really communist yet?

Yeah, they know what they are but every other idiot doesn't so when they call themselves communist every atrocity the enact gets pinned on communism.

It's cherry picking propaganda nonsense. Every problem you've gotten from "communist" governments is the same problems you get with any authoritarian dictatorship. So common sense should tell you that it's not the economic platform that causes the problems but the authoritarianism. People tend to lack common sense, though.

Idk tbh

Just from my observations that were a long time ago and don’t mean **** anyway because I was just a tourist but it didn’t appear to have the crushing poverty of places like India or the United States. As far as how much what happens in practice aligns with their official policy - probably not that much really. China felt a lot more aggressive and regimented to me. And from what I saw in China very brutal poverty was quite prevalent.

From what I read their economy has been going through rapid growth but they still lack a lot of resources. Despite that they have been lifting more and more people out of poverty in their country. So as a whole the country isn't as rich as most first world countries but their people aren't facing the same kind of poverty as most first world countries.

Man. When I google pictures of what it looks like now compared to when I was there it’s insane.

This may seem pretty modest

But there was no modern architecture when I was there.

I am so old.

I'm waiting for there to be some kind of catch as to why Vietnam is evil or something.

I mean they're a small enough country that it's possible they manage to... install(?) leaders who aren't ****bags.

From what I read it seems fairly fascist there. Like, neighbors are snitches. They have a culture of snitching.

Where have you read this stuff?

Internets.

The snitching thing was from articles talking about why Vietnam doesn't have any covid deaths. The others were from Wikipedia because I was curious as to why a socialist country isn't brought up a lot by socialists to argue in favor of it or from people that would use it as an example of the evils of socialism/communism.

Edit: I also read that they made anybody spreading misinformation about the virus pay a fine.

literally every "communist" state has been stuck permanently in the "transition" stage... Starts to make it seem like the method of transition simply doesn't work.

I mean it's the pretty standard "catch" you find with these beacons of hope... Severe crackdown on human rights... Any of the **** you guys post about our govt would warrant the death penalty there if it were directed towards the party.

I mean duh. The one thing democracy gives you is that your government has to pander to you to SOME extent even if they're gaslighting you into voting for all sorts of nonsense that isn't to your benefit. They might get you to vote for payouts to corporations cause what's best for business is best for the people, but secret police committing extra judicial killings is a much harder sell if your country isn't in chaos and you just want order at any cost. It's still a devil's bargain but all government is a devil's bargain anyway. Probably actually best to build a cabin in the deep woods and hunt rabbits while talking to a volleyball.

I agree... I think that's exactly why every major communist country has been poor and politically chaotic prior to the revolution... People in well functioning 1st world democracies are far too complacent to gamble on that sort of thing.

This has also been shown to be true just with communist or socialist parties in Western countries... The more liberal the ruling regime is, the less radical their major socialist parties are. This makes them more likely to compromise with the regime and thus less likely for the revolution to ever happen.

It's almost as if it is human nature to embrace conveniences (like their favorite drink at Starbucks, running water, functioning city services, etc.) as opposed to embracing higher risk and participating in political activities that will most certainly destroy those conveniences.

Ahh, so you and bat agree that humans are complacent selfish monkey people or something. You know the **** Bat says.
