Stupid shit in Medellin

[Villainy]

You have watched too many Audie Murphy movies. Have you seen Colditz where US prisoners escape? In reality, none escaped. And Americans did no serious fighting in Europe. Bar the Ardennes where they were surrender monkeys and shot prisoners out of hand.

90% of German casualties were on the Eastern Front. The Yanks came in late, robbing and raping all round them. They even make movies boasting about their thieves.

Now off you go and polish up your brasses on the USS Harvey Milk.

This Brit invented the Internet. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Berners-Lee Americans do not invent. They just rob (from German physicists after WW2) and rape. Away and eat your Big Mac and Coke.

Every thing you said is either mistaken or a lie. You tell me which?

90% of the casualties weren't at the Eastern Front but it certainly was the highest percentage. Mostly because a complete German army was abandoned and not permitted to retreat during the battle of Stalingrad.

If it had not been for the American supplies and equipment sent to Great Britain and Russia you wouldn't be able to manufacture your version of history.

Oh and BTW you are full of shit about who invented the internet as well.

https://www.history.com/news/who-invented-the-internet

The scientist you reference above, came along later and developed the WWW methodology. BTW he was working at MIT (for ignorant like you that is the abbreviation of Massachusetts Institute of Technology) when these new protocols were developed.

Here is a direct quote:

"While it's often confused with the internet itself, the web is actually just the most common means of accessing data online in the form of websites and hyperlinks."

Oh, he gets it, Shoobree. While Viliany is not trying to get laid solving calculus problems (one of these days it will work for sure), you have to understand that he and all the rest of these Democratic douches are not trying to be logical but working on their douche scores. The only way these guys can be so irrational is that they are getting paid for it and with these douches, the feeling not the reality but the feeling is that if they are good douches with high scores the government gravy train will not stop for them.

So how do you be a good douche? You just point and hate.

Trump: evil. Trump voters: more evil. And then you go down the list: Putin, Joe Rogin, Aaron Rogers, Dennis Prager, Sweden, those not vaccinated, and lately parents AKA domestic terrorists in Virginia (that one did not work out so well)..

Douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche.

That's the only thing you ever say.

Douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche, douche.

Everyone I know stopped using the word in the 6th grade when we found out where douches go. One day you'll know too.

In the Second World War the USA was too cowardly to enter until it was half way over and until the Europeans (mostly Russians and Brits, but also plenty of rebels from defeated countries) had blunted Hitler. The prospect of genocide against the Jews was not enough of a provocation to enter the war for the USA. Oh no, no. They had to wait for a selfish reason to enter. The Japanese sank a few of the ships in Pearl Harbour. Ah diddums.

How cowardly to claim victory when you only turn up after the fighting is done. It reminds me of the Galdiator movie when Commodus turns up in Germania to claim the glory just as Maximus has finished the barbarians off. You guys and your warped versions of history make me laugh.

How quaint. So you have rewritten history to diminish the role the US played. How sweet. I'm sure you are ignorant that even before the US was actively fighting the war in Europe. They sent vast amounts of supplies via convoys to both Great Britain and to Russia. The US supply ships probably saved Great Britain from having to raise the white flag. But of course, not knowing anything about WWII I'm sure you were unaware.

The genocide of the Jews was not well know until the camps were overrun at the end of the war.

It's OK. I understand you recreate whatever doesn't fit your own preconceived notions. This is evidenced by your complete ignorance of history and your laughable understanding of the efficacy of the vaccine against the CoVid virus. It must be nice to live in your little hovel of ignorance.

[PedroMorales]

What a polite post. A better analogy might have been a vaccinated Mormon who hangs around with high risk folk. Most Westerners seem to be now vaccinated (sic) with one or other of the approved shots. Austria is insisting on 3 shots (to save their ski industry) and Israel is just a land of Guinea pigs anyway.

Americans and those they influence just want a comfort blanket. Take the clot shot and you will be fine until the next shot.

I got Covid and have a travel cert valid for three more months. I practice social distancing though some avoid / are wary of me lest I Typhoid Mary them.

I have hepatitis shots but I do not have flue shots as the latter is a virus that has been with us for centuries but largely vanished last year because of social distancing. Big Pharma rushed out their clot shots. They have a history of lying and price gouging. East Asians have the social discipline for social distancing and lockdowns. Americans and Brits do not. They prefer anarchy and comfort blankets.

Hi JustTK,
Your post on "vaccinated just as likely to spread virus as unvaccinated" is another example in my opinion, as it seems to escape you what conditional probabilities are. What is the chance a person from Utah you see is a Mormon? What is the chance a person from Utah you see is a Mormon, given he is lying drunk in the gutter? Totally different. .

Happy Veterans Day everyone.

How cowardly to claim victory when you only turn up after the fighting is done.

Clearly the only coward here is you, spending hours each day taking pot shots at Americans on a long established American owned website, and from the safety of your computer hiding out in Europe somewhere. The greatest contribution of the US in World War II involved production of war materials, producing more airplanes than all of the other major powers combined. And Stalin was propped up by our supplies, including 400,000 trucks and billions of dollars worth of airplanes. And such supply routes to the east were created by our fighting efforts in the Mediterranean, especially Africa and Italy along with the British. We were also instrumental in the liberation of France, the defeat of the Japanese in the South Pacific, and for bringing about a sure end with the invention of the atom bomb. To say we only showed up when it was over is asinine to the point where it could only come from a little vegan boy trolling day in and day out in a hooker forum, whining about how everyone is picking on him.

A lot of Euros love to run their mouths, until they need us, and they inevitably do. The two World Wars are just two of many examples, and of many more to come.

Pound for pound a vegan diet results in just as much animal death as an omnivorous diet.

Veganism causes just as much suffering as raising animals for meat.

Hi JjBee62,

I started reading some of the posts on this board a few weeks ago, and you always struck me as a very level-headed guy. This post however was a bit of a head scratcher.

I am not a vegan, but I fully recognize how much damage to the planet and animal suffering is caused by the meat industry. With all due respect, your rationale and bean examples seem a bit underwhelming in light of the fact that less than 10% of all soy is used for human food products such as tofu and soy milk, and a large number of studies suggest that global land use could drop tremendously if everybody went vegan (for example https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aaq0216). I recognize that I might be missing something, and I'd certainly be open to change my mind if you can corroborate your statements. I also recognize that this board is not about diet choices, but then, I didn't start it.

Ethical concerns aside, I disagree with most of JustTK's statements about vaccination, but that doesn't mean I have to disagree with him if he says the sky is blue.

[Fun Luvr]

In the Second World War the USA was too cowardly to enter until it was half way over ...

Just one simple question JustTK, how do you determine when a war is half way over while it is in progress?

[Ptrbrgr]

I saw a few days ago reports of a study published in Bloomberg, Fortune, BBC, Guardian (look them up on search "vaccinated just as likely to spread virus as unvaccinated" that verify that the vaxd are just as transmissable WRT the virus as the unvaxd. So the vaxd and the unvaxd are equally as likely to pass the virus on to any vulnerable / imuno-compromised person.

So now it is really indisputable that the unvaxd are only an increased danger to themselves. So there is no more excuse for the persecution of the unvaxd to continue.

Hi JustTK,

Apologies for not responding to you earlier, I have been very busy at work. I am also an ultra runner, so there are always days where I just run, eat, and sleep, and don't do anything else.

I did not know that your objection to the vaccine was primarily because of ethical reasons. I fully agree that lots of unsavory things happen at pharma, but it stands to reason how much blame can be put on them in this instance, since testing was required by law. Here is PETA's take on this:

"The goal of being vegan and advocating for animal rights should always be to bring about positive change for animals. As long as tests on animals are a legal requirement, refusing to take a medicine on ethical grounds will not help animals who have already been used in tests or spare any the same fate in the future. ".

https://www.peta.org.uk/blog/vegans-covid-19-vaccine/

So while there are differing opinions, I think no reasonable person would / should give you too much grief if you cite plausible ethical concerns for not getting vaccinated. Taking this into account, I would still argue you should get vaccinated in part because prolonging the pandemic invariably will result in more animal experiments being carried out, which is completely counter to what you want to achieve. Perfect can be the enemy of good.

That said, in many of your posts it seems you are grasping for straws, trying to come up with additional explanations why people shouldn't get vaccinated (and I suspect this is because you want this to be true). Unfortunately, this is where the wheels are coming off in your reasoning, as several people have pointed out. Your post on "vaccinated just as likely to spread virus as unvaccinated" is another example in my opinion, as it seems to escape you what conditional probabilities are. What is the chance a person from Utah you see is a Mormon? What is the chance a person from Utah you see is a Mormon, given he is lying drunk in the gutter? Totally different. The same thing in the paper you cite, which reports on transmissions in a household *given the vaccinated person had a breakthrough infection. It is not very surprising if you spend an extended period of time with an infectious person that you don't see a big difference in rates of transmissions comparing breakthrough and natural infections (even though by all accounts people with natural infections are infectious for a longer time). If you had read the manuscript, you probably would have noticed this sentence in the abstract:

"Vaccination reduces the risk of delta variant infection and accelerates viral clearance. Nonetheless, fully vaccinated individuals with breakthrough infections have peak viral load similar to unvaccinated cases and can efficiently transmit infection in household settings, including to fully vaccinated contacts."

Reducing this to "vaccinated just as likely to spread virus as unvaccinated" is absurd. I am going back to my first response to you: it is not helpful to "amplify stuff you read somewhere without understanding the meaning of it. Be better. And dare to think for yourself. " I fully respect your ethical concerns, but I don't think you are doing yourself a favor peddling some nonsensical soundbites.

You have yet to explain how lockdowns can be so great while at the same time Peru has twice the number of deaths per capita compared to Brazil and Colombia.

In reality, it is because Peru had a different strain of the virus. Their living conditions (remarkably stable climate, sea level altitude, and crowded living conditions in Lima) made it ideal for the virus to spread. See the link: https://www.contagionlive.com/view/t...strain-in-peru.

If you are going to make a side by side comparison, you have to know which variants there are, how cases are reported, how the diagnosis is made, and how one determines if Covid was the cause of death or just along for the ride, and no one cared if that data was accurate. In Italy, of all the death attributed to Covid, only about 3% did not have comorbid risk factors. I have seen dozens of people with low oxygen and in respiratory distress, some in their 20's. On the other, I have seen exactly one person declared dead with Covid, a 93 year old with leukemia, a dubious claim to be sure.

On top of that, you have to account for other decisions. Sweden's early high death rate was much like New York's in that the vulnerable elderly were not isolated from those contaminated with Covid. That decision about the elderly is not factored into with Sweden by the media. No, the death rate was higher because they did not lock down.

[KyoHiromitsu]

Aks them to explain the stats in South Korea. No lockdown. Lockdowns were clearly not necessary. They were a tool that was used with highly variable results. Results that indicate that there were more important factors at play.

No government tells the truth about Covid. Statistics are meaningless. For example: Japan has like 225 cases today and No lockdown. DO you actually believe it? Statistics can be manipulated in a thousand ways.

[MarquisdeSade1]

The type of rationale during this thing has been inconceivable to me. If you are vaxed then it is okay for you to come in and spead the disease around. If you are unvaxed, don't you dare come in here and spread the disease that you don't have around. So it is better for a vaxed person that is infected to come in than an unvaxed person that is not infected? If you are vaxed with the disease then we are happy to continue being your employer. If you are unvaxed without the disease then turn in your ID. What logically should matter is if the person is infected, regardless of their vaccination status.

The world has gone crazy. Nobody ever came and made sure I was wearing a condom so I would not get AIDS, never came to make sure I was wrapped up so I did not catch pneumonia, never came to make sure my seat belt was on so I did not die in an accident, never made sure my shoes were tied so I did not trip and fall. But now everyone is dead set on making sure I am vaxed so I don't get Covid to the point that I can not work or enter certain establishments without being so. This type of thinking must be well beyond my paygrade or from another world.

Too stupid. He thinks these 50 (non Brit) European companies are American. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EURO_STOXX_50.

Even European heroes are better.

[PedroMorales]

WoW are you in need of a remedial history lesson. Those higher paying jobs that you are crowing about are largely with American companies. And the only reason you have the right to blow your hot air this direction is because the US pulled your sorry, lazy, ineffectual asses out of two World Wars. But for that you would be clicking your heels and spraying your spit when you talk. OH yes and you have the luxury to share your obnoxious, uneducated opinions with us is because we created the internet to allow it. So you can keep writing your Euro-crap. Maybe ShooBree will agree with you.

You have watched too many Audie Murphy movies. Have you seen Colditz where US prisoners escape? In reality, none escaped. And Americans did no serious fighting in Europe. Bar the Ardennes where they were surrender monkeys and shot prisoners out of hand.

Yikes, it's easy to see that you're the retard given that your only argument is "mirror, mirror on the wall". You're simply too stupid to understand simple facts & stats, not to mention your inability to draw any reasonable conclusions.

You probably should work on your reading comprehension because you haven't understood a god damn thing.

Oh, he gets it, Shoobree. While Viliany is not trying to get laid solving calculus problems (one of these days it will work for sure), you have to understand that he and all the rest of these Democratic douches are not trying to be logical but working on their douche scores. The only way these guys can be so irrational is that they are getting paid for it and with these douches, the feeling not the reality but the feeling is that if they are good douches with high scores the government gravy train will not stop for them.

So how do you be a good douche? You just point and hate.

Trump: evil. Trump voters: more evil. And then you go down the list: Putin, Joe Rogin, Aaron Rogers, Dennis Prager, Sweden, those not vaccinated, and lately parents AKA domestic terrorists in Virginia (that one did not work out so well).

The douches are in foul mood because of Virginia, and they know what is coming.

You are a bad douche if you criticize Fauci because he is on your team. He did not fund development of the virus because he says so, and you cannot criticize China for making and screwing up and releasing the virus. No, that is racist, but Sweden is mostly white so they are fair douche game.

You will never beat a douche. They will never admit they are wrong. What they will do is go silent. They will debate censoring Trump on Twitter but when you tell them that their stupid censoring led to Trump starting his own media company which put $4 billion in his pocket they will be silent. That is really a foreshadow of things to come.

They demonize those who do not get vaccinated as selfish because they are spreading Covid (even though getting the vax does not prevent transmission), but when one of their own is symptomatic and spreads the virus over 2 continents, it is crickets. You cannot criticize your fellow douche. It hurts your score.

The douches wanted to destroy the world economy so Trump would not get re-elected. Mission accomplished, but they thought they could just turn it back on, and it does not work that way. I think the funniest issue is on oil. Do you get what a great unifier Joe Biden is? The prices on oil and gas have skyrocketed, and there is a ton, I mean a ton, of spare capacity in the system. You have a very diverse set of producers in OPEC, in Russia, and the American oil companies. Inevitably, one country or group would increase capacity to get at the spare cash and drive the price down. Because of Joe Biden, no one is cheating, and prices are up and staying there. The American rig count is half of what it was when oil was this high before.

So Sweden's greatest sin was not participating in the destruction of the world economy to get rid of Trump. Everyone else was willing to do it. The reason that Sweden did not is this was not up to the pols. It was the only country that had a health care professional in charge, and he had the audacity to look at lockdowns and say they have not been proven to work with Covid. Do no harm again.

And my hat is off to the Colombian people who also did not allow their government to destroy their economy by fighting lockdowns.

The douches are going to have to pull out all the stops in 2022 and 2024 and it is not going to work. For people who so hate Trump, no one can match him financially now. His being president in 2024 now is virtually his choice. And this time, Trump will have his personnel (and not Bush's personnel) to drain the swamp, and all these douches will be deprived of their precious swamp water and only then will these douches perish. It is not going to be reason or logic that does them in but their own stupid douche plans for domination.
