Stupid shit in Medellin

[QUOTE=PedroMorales;2644126]His work on linguistics is that of a child. He is a hyped up CIA dissident to keep the perverts of the US Democrats happy.

Every hypocrite is quoting him on social media.[/QUOTE]You think that the work of the man known as "the father of modern linguistics" and the most influential person in his sector is childish? Ha. That is a rather odd choice of words. Sure, he is a USA dissident, like any decent person with an international political outlook should be. He was one of the main players that acted against the horrific war that USA waged on Vietnam, and he speaks truth to power at every opportunity, he has made a life out of it.

I still see no reason why you think he is a "fraud". Perhaps its similar to your choice of childish? Has meaning to you but to no one else in the world.

Tutu was the greatest living humanist until he died, IMO. Did you think he was a fruad too. Perhaps for his work in bringing about the end of Apartheid?

Linguistics is a very difficult subject, much more difficult than that fraud would have one believe. He is not a US dissident. He is an American puppet, controlled and sinecured. The USA is the main evil in today's world. Fraud Chomsky is an integral part of it.

It was the VC and the North Vietnamese Army, aided by China and the USSR that put an end to the USA's terror campaign in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. It is a racist insult to denigrate them by praising that fraud. Chomsky continues his frauds to this day. Fuck him and fuck Kissinger.

Tutu (what a name) was a nobody, elevated on high by those with dark agendas. South Africa's military and economic day was up. Tutu was merely a part of the chorus, plucked from it to serve nefarious ends. Ev ery idiot on social media is quoting that fraud, just like they quote Einstein and other staples.

If Tutu wants to be proud of today's South African shit heap, that is his prerogative. Good luck with your high school exams.

[QUOTE=Elvis2008;2644152]I like this one because I trust Sweden to be honest: [URL]https://www.news-medical.net/news/20211006/Large-study-of-COVID-vaccine-side-effects-in-Sweden.aspx[/URL].
I have been reading Robert Kennedy Junior's book about the real Dr. Fauci, and this one line says it all, "In 2020, workers lost $3. 7 trillion while billionaires gained $3. 9 trillion. "
I really wish this shit was over with and the government would just admit defeat and tell people "we trust you will do what is in your own best interest for your health" instead of treatments and policies that always just so happen to make billionaires richer.[/QUOTE]I also really like Matt Taibbi. It say a lot that he had to leave Rolling Stone due to speaking truth to power.

Swedish study. Yes, you see this is why I have not formed a view on vax side effects. The article speaks about variations in side effects across ages and sexes. It says nothing about the overall dangers of the vax. Sure, there are variations. But is the actual risk high or low? The article says nothing about that. So I remain agnostic.

Yes, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer under the Dems. I agree with that. I think they are a terrible political party. I just don't agree that anything would change under the Reps. They are even worse IMO. BUt at least they might end this farce with vaxes. And you know already that the USA has very big political weight internationally, so maybe it would effect global action too.

[QUOTE=JustTK;2643948]We have debated long and hard the ethics and likely consequences of the vaccines. But I read an article recently that prompted me to re-examine some factors that have lain dormant for wuite some time.

Global excess deaths shoow that 5. 7 million extra people have died since CV. This might be as a direct result of catching CV, or it could be as a consequence of actions taken by governments in response to CV. Other ignored medical issues, starvation, depression, whatever. We will never accuratly know the split of this number, partly bcos the world is recording the death of anyone that had CV at the time of death as a CV death (which would clearly be incorrect, when considering the cause of death).

So max 5. 7 million, but no doubt significantly on the high side. And many of these deaths are of old, sick, bad health people (living mostly in advantaged rich countries, where these people would already be dead and not part of the stats had they been born in a poor country).

Now, I don't know if you remember back to the start of the pandemic. The WHO warned that 500 million faced being pushed back in to extreme poverty if the world went in to lockdown and did nothing:.[/QUOTE]Well put, what this goes to show is that the lockdown fanatics (such as Paulie) are A; a bunch of selfish assholes or be; simply too stupid to understand the consequences of the lockdowns.

[QUOTE=ShooBree;2644528]So simple and so true.[/QUOTE]I could not agree more The sad part is there are many that real do not want this to End, for whatever reason, most are very Liberal that want this to continue. Financially this is going to turn out really bad, probably not in Texas, but every where else is going to get there wish.

You may laugh at Tutu's name, but I assume even you would appreciate it is a name of African origin. No doubt your name would sound very stupid to them too. Pedro is a dog's name isn't it? You probably did fail to hear that Tutu was one of the ANC party's most outspoken critics since they came to power.

I am glad you won't reply to me any more. Do the board a favour and don't reply to anyone.

For a while now it's been clear the primary objective of most pandemic coverage is to scare the socks off mass audiences. Good news, bad news, boring news, interesting news, news that's more of a wash in the final analysis, news that's a net plus overall: it's all presented as terrifying, more signs of the Apocalypse. There's no better example than the stampede to advertise the "first death from Omicron" in the United States.

Matt Orfalea does a hilarious job that's him in the death suit, by the way of stitching together an homage to the latest moral panic. So many great little details here, from the "Way Too Early" background to one reporter's premature death report to the "aggressive Covid vice" imagery, the dramatic Biden-cough, and so much more.

It was the world's loudest record-scratch when the WHO in the first week of December said the ominous "Omicron variant" of Covid-19 had been detected in 38 countries, but without any known deaths.

No deaths? How could that be? In the United States in late November, we'd already skipped past the stunned-curiosity phase and moved straight into active mass panic, with "fallout from the Omicron variant" causing the Dow to fall 652 points in a day when news of the mutant contagion arrived. Right away, we had a travel ban from southern Africa, an address urging calm from President Mumbles, and a declaration of a "Variant of Concern" from the CDC, as "scientists raced" to learn more about this "almost Frankensteinish" new strain of Covid-19.

The next month of Omicron coverage offered a fascinating window into our Covid-fixated future. For most of December, we were presented with an unbroken string of scare stories that in many cases actively buried the lede on the most important question: is this thing going to kill me? The Washington Post on December 14th, for instance, ran a story about how the "CDC warns" that a "punishing wave" could be coming as soon as January. The piece noted Omicron was "dramatically more transmissible" and "a more slippery foe when encountered by neutralizing antibodies," but ignored the issue of lethality altogether, which would seem impossible to do by accident.

"How deadly is the Omicron variant? WHO releases death report," wrote the Express you. K. Earlier this week, with the following sub-headline:

OMICRON cases have increased more than tenfold since authorities identified the first UK infections in November, but scientists' knowledge of the variant has increased in kind. The World Health Organization (WHO) released its first death report this weekend, outlining how dangerous it really is.

Reading that headline hits your fear center, making you anxious to know just exactly "how dangerous it really is. " What does that mean? Scrolling down, you first read that Omicron mutations "allow it to escape immunity provided by both vaccine doses," that "it reduces two doses of Pfizer to 30 percent effectiveness, with AstraZeneca potentially down to zero," and that while boosters can restore effectiveness to 75 percent, "many are at Omicron's mercy. " Not good!

Only far down the piece do you read that since the WHO's "no deaths" report in early December, the disease has "spread rapidly, and one person in the UK has died with the new variant. Recent data suggests the disease Omicron causes is milder than its predecessors."

The distinction between "dying with" and "dying from" is a sticking point in theory if you're trying to accurately gauge the lethality of a thing, but journalists have mostly shrugged it off.

On December 20th, a man in Houston died "with" Omicron. The Harris County Public Health office issued a release citing an "Omicron Variant-Related" death, but Harris County judge Lisa Hidalgo, sporting a stylish tree-branch-pattern mask, wasted no time in announcing, "The Omicron variant of COVID-19 has arrived in full force."

As shown in Matt's video, Hidalgo raised the county's County's Covid-19 "threat level" status to "Level-2 Orange," bringing us back to the halcyon days of the War on Terror, when the government each day assigned us a mathematical Expected Freakout Level (EFL) about things over which we had no control.

Within hours, national press outlets like CNN had reported the "first death attributed to the Omicron variant," gushing, as Jeremy Diamond is shown doing in this video, that "Covid surges are surging!" Pundits wasted little time wagging their bony death-fingers in our direction: "First Omicron Death in USA Was ReinfectionA Warning to Those Who've Already Had COVID," wrote Newsweek.

Shortly after, a Harris County Public Health official named Martha Marquez hedged, saying they could confirm the dead man was Omicron-positive, but the cause of death had not yet been determined.

The arrival of both the Delta and Omicron variants were reported in ways that recalled the classic "Africanized killer bees" media panics of yore. Stay in your homes and be vigilant about the highly aggressive African invader who just might move in next door: for a good long time, this was a staple of local TV, as noted in Bowling for Columbine:

[URL]https://*******.com/p9r6vfrz[/URL]

Descriptions of Omicron as the scary scary thing coming from southern Africa have been near carbon-copies of those old bee stories. Kudos to the few outlets at home and in Europe that pointed out the hypocrisy of this coverage. If you're really bent on using the deadly new "Africanized" variant to frighten people into getting vaccinated, shouldn't you also be "racing" to pass patent waivers so countries like India and South Africa can make their own vaccines, thereby preventing the spread of mutations before they even have a chance to become headlines here?

If they're determined to keep going in the scare direction, they should do a better job of it. Omicron is certainly an improvement over Delta, but they should dispense with the pretense and start giving true Fangoria names to coronavirus strains: the "Mutilator" Variant, the "Suffocating Agony" variant, the "Shaft-Sagger," the "Face-Eater," etc. Would you bet against something like that coming?

[QUOTE=CaptainSolo;2645659]There are a few taxis parked in front of Gusto. Potentially they may collude with the girls, take you to a dark area, beat up and rob you clean.

I took Camila to the hotel near Santa Fe mall after midnight. She immediately went to those taxi guys, kidding around with them like they know each other well. The driver looked scraggy, dirty, unshaven, blood-shot eyes like he was high. He was driving fast and erratically down narrow, dark streets, very close to getting broadsided at an intersection. He showed me a plastic bag with 4 joints and kept pushing me to buy, said the girls wanted it. I refused to buy.

He was just driving straight down Ave Poblado to my hotel but got lost a couple times. When we arrived and I paid him, he looked confused, disoriented, must be high on drugs.

Camila had a stinky pussy and reneged on her offer, also trying to steal from my luggage, so I paid her quickly and took her down to the street..[/QUOTE]Let it go. Just let it go. You had 1 girl with a stinky pussy. You left her alone with your open luggage (a full-fledged rookie mistake) and now everyone in Colombia is a fat, ugly, lazy thief who is always trying to set up and rip off every tourist. And every time you check into ISG you have to repeat your 1 bad experience (made worse by a rookie mistake). Let it go and move on with your life.

Everyone, if they do anything long enough, is going to have a bad experience, and everyone is eventually going to make a bad situation worse by making a mistake. There's a simple way to handle it.

1. Realize that not everything is going to be perfect. Sometimes, regardless of your experience, your preparation and everything you do, you'll end up with an unsatisfying evening.

2. Accept that there were things you could have done to avoid, or limit how bad the experience was.

3. Learn from the experience and share what you learned, instead of blaming everyone in Colombia for one bad experience.

4. Alternatively, accept that Colombia is not a good match for you, turn your back and forget it exists.

Your speculation the girl and taxi driver planned to drug and rob you using joints laced with something is extremely far-fetched. Don't you think you would have figured something was up when the girl wouldn't smoke with you and avoided breathing any of the smoke? Besides, why mess with that? All it would have taken was the driver pulling a gun or knife.

Getting an Uber out of Parque Lleras at night can be difficult. Every night hundreds of people take a taxi from Parque Lleras without being robbed, killed or anything else. Waiting around for 30-60 minutes for a Uber might not work for everyone. There's no need to try and panic people for some imagined threat.

However, there are taxi scams people should be aware of.

I believe the current starting price on the taxi meter is 3600 pesos. Especially around Parque Lleras at night, drivers won't reset the meter. The first thing you should do is check the meter and if it hasn't been reset, point it out.

Some drivers have a means to bump up the meter. Pay attention. Some meters also go up at a faster rate. In either case, there's not much you can do, other than get out as soon as possible. If you're taking the same trip regularly, remember what you paid. The best thing you can do is pay attention.

MDE is just not this paradise you guys claim to make it. MDE is average destination at best. Way too many sex tourist and drugs. Cheap maybe, but the cheap places can be dangerous and very low end girls.

This is a long listen or watch but this was the best Covid explanation I have ever heard. Dr. Robert Malone actually invented the mRNA vaccine and was banned from Twitter. This interview was then on youtube and then banned. It is amazing how these assholes making the vaccine cannot even stand that anyone, even the guy who invented the technology the vaccines are based on, talks the truth about them.

I wouldn't say the there are too many sex tourists. For a sex destination I would say the numbers are in fact are very low. I also don't think the quality of girls is low. Although again, I agree its not paradise.

What I don't like is that it's too cold, too wet, too congested and too polluted. And for a reasonably large city, there are very few attractions. Not much you can do about that, apart from wait for Thailand to open. Hehe.

Here is an article by The Atlantic that talks about your "esteemed" (irony) Dr. Malone.

[URL]https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2021/08/robert-malone-vaccine-inventor-vaccine-skeptic/619734/[/URL]

For those of you who can't read (Students in the Elvis School of Analysis). Dr. Malone did do some preliminary research into mRNA and wrote a few papers. But those preliminary writings were over 30 years ago and the changes in mRNA research that led to the creation of the vaccines has had thousands of changes / refinements (maybe 10's of thousands) since then. Apparently despite having written about some ground-breaking theories he did little to develop them while others continued the research for years which ultimately led to the CoVid vaccines. Now of course, Dr. Malone's ego can't accept his minor role, so he has branded himself as the "inventor" of mRNA and everything that has been developed since then. All this makes him the perfect guest for the 'conspiracy theory' network of podcasts which Elvis relies so heavily on to support his own crackpot theories.
