It’s perfectly logical to me to have businesses be the enforcers.
Stationing national guard soldiers at the front door of grocery stores might have seemed extreme. But then we learned the extent to which mouthbreather (sic) covidiots would go to make this simple duty a political issue.

The medical community didn't want the general public to hoard masks until they got the supply chain under control.

It's not that hard to understand.

Just more lazy thinking.

Also, seeing MAGAts blame people for their inability to contain a viral spread = the summit of all hypocrisy.

He must have just been listening to the experts

They've now spent 4 months bitching about guidance that was in place for 6 weeks and was gone for ~3 months before what is currently our peak.

has any government ever controlled a viral spread?
Austria has 9M people with a density of 100/km.

Arizona has ~8M people with a density of 22/km.

Austria put in heavy restrictions in mid-March. Their high point in new cases (to date) was in late March. They haven't had a week with more than 1000 new cases since April. I believe they've reopened their borders with everyone except Italy.

Arizona is run by morons. They had similar numbers in the early part of April. Then they decided to start reopening in May and didn't put mask requirements in place until mid-June. It was over 1000 new cases *per day* for the entire month of July.

This is, quite plainly, government action and inaction killing people. Sound government policy has tamped the spread of Covid-19 and would have here if we had a President and certain state governments that weren't run by fucking morons.

With the rumble strips that road probably has a speed limit of 55 MPH plus. Karma would have been that joker putting up the signs joining the deer as human roadkill

News from the right:

VP candidate Kamala Harris:

Is not qualified because her parents were not yet fully naturalized when she was born.

Is not actually black. Her father is Jamaican and her mother is South Asian.

Did not descend from slaves. Her father is Jamaican and her mother is South Asian.

Is actually descended from a family of prominent Jamaican slave owners.

Wants to confiscate all guns by executive order.

Wants to abolish private insurance.   

This kind of nonsense is seriously being spread by right wing media. 
 

Meanwhile I am getting blockbuster news like this

You should listen to AM 890. Luminaries like Mancow, Chris Plante, Rush, Ben Shapiro, and Mark Levin. Shapiro actually cares about facts to a degree.  Plante and Levin tell lie after lie. Rush is confused. First day back, Rush says Obama's GDP growth never topped 1.2%.

I think Mark Levin has read the superlatives written about people like Tucker, Ingraham and Hannity. He wants in on those superlatives.

I'm tempted to call him The Worst.

Ben Shapiro is a fuckin' noodledick. In a prior time, we would've left him on an island somewhere.

Marvin's theory of superlatives applies in this situation.

Nope I turned location based alerts off on my phone and have been using the Privacy Pro app. Deactivated Facebook again and deleted Instagram and Pinterest apps.

In all seriousness though regarding that stupid article my entire Apple news feed reads like a weird mix of tabloids/The Onion.

With the obligatory daily cautionary tale of a person under 40 who thought the virus was a hoax then got sick and wants us to hear his message.
