The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19
shoshin replied to Hedge's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Good. More testing means more people catching the disease and isolating once they catch it. I've been tested 4 times. Once before travel to NYS, and 3x as part of a study I'm in. -
My answer, not that you asked me. Get bipartisan wins and publicize them. “Look what we accomplished together.” Something healthcare. Some infra. A trade bill. Immigration. Debt control. Tax reform to address soaring spending. Complain to the party faithful that this doesn’t go far enough but the parties worked together to take first steps to solving problems. That would remind everyone that we are all together.

More credible than Sidney Powell court cases. Bada bump. I’m here all week. Tip your waitresses. -

The future for both parties and realignment
shoshin replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Maybe it's just hidden if you don't have an account. It used to be visible. They probably didn't want the word getting out that it's a politics site with a football board too. -

The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19
shoshin replied to Hedge's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Not that you asked me but the problem right now is that the friggin' hospitalized number will not stop rising. It's hard to manage the response when the line never levels. There's the faintest hint of a slope change in the last week but it's not nearly what anyone hopes for. -
Please add to this list. Who's in on the conspiracy: Trump's FBI Trump's DOJ Republican legislatures Republican governors American voters Trump-appointed judges Non-Trump appointed Republican judges FoxNews

The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19
shoshin replied to Hedge's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I'm not afraid of cases but we all should be paying attention to rising hospitalizations and deaths. Cases precede those, as they have in this case. -
The future for both parties and realignment

That is a fair take--by you. But building an echo chamber and retreating to it is weak sauce. SDS banned one guy for his behavior, not his politics. At the same time, he suspended a bunch of left trolls and banned some dupe left troll accounts. In explaining his position, he noted that he never intervened here despite his disagreement with much of the conspiracy junk. Saying that backfired on him (egads--he's human and had an opinion). I know a bunch of the other echo chamber people thought Hapless was heavy-handed in the OT Covid thread. I agree, but she and I disagreed about Covid projections in that thread (I thought there would be no big spike this fall, she thought I was nuts, erm, "Thank you Ma'am may I have another?" SMACK) but we always kept things civil. Your line about "haymakers" and also "snowflakes" is right on. I withdraw the snowflakes insult, with prejudice that I should stop using it as it's pejorative and unhelpful. BTW, I was looking at a Fins message board and they had a pinned note from September about shutting down their politics board because it created too much division. Here's that post. I know the other site refugees hated me for saying it, but that was my point. Dear members,We would like to address the recent change to the terms of service in regards to politics on Finheaven.Due to the Political and War Forum causing rifts among our membership we have decided shut down the PoFo and we are no longer allowing political content on the site. This is now included in the Terms of Service.This means you are not allowed to post politcal comments, opinions or pictures on the site at all. If you do post any politcal content on the site you will receive a PM reminding you that this type of content is not allowed and your content will be deleted. If you continue to post politcal content after the initial warning it will result in receiving infraction points that could lead to being banned from the site.So let's keep the site focused on Dolphins football and the other forums focused on their topics. We have forums for college sports, other sports and the off topic stuff in the Lounge if you feel like you need a break from talking about the Dolphins.Thank you,-Finheaven staff- Can you answer why they hid their politics board at the new place? I am not obsessed but I am curious why our old comrades would do that. -

You might be taking things....a bit too seriously. -
The Democrats very bad election day
shoshin replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
To lose president definitively but make up ground in the House is rare and as someone said above, perhaps a sign that there’s some sanity left on the right. I had 8 races on my ballot. I voted for two Dems, Biden being one. -
Trump's Legal Machine Grinds to a Halt
shoshin replied to WideNine's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Trump raised 170 million 75% of which he can use to pay off his election debts. He’s getting what he wants. Money and attention. -
The future for both parties and realignment
shoshin replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
At what point, I wonder, do the Trump people who believe in an election conspiracy (Lehnerd seems to be the only person who hasn’t fled to the snowflake protection zone) and the many other conspiracies where everything is someone else’s fault/a plot, realize they’ve been had? And will they just find another Trump like Cruz or admit they were duped, maybe move on to a more realistic channel for their frustration. I’m less familiar with what happened to avid McCarthyists as he fell from grace but that’s the obvious analogy. This election fiction is witch hunt McCarthyesque nuttiness now. And lack of evidence is fueling the fire not dampening it. -
Nah, no cheatin' y'all, trump is fat
shoshin replied to Unforgiven's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
No actually I meant seriously: What is all of that? Just some random garbage you picked off the Internet or something part of a bigger movement? This board used to be filled with tweets and one off vids of a bad actor or a small group of bad actors, by which we were supposed to extend terrible behavior to huge groups of people. Since The Departures, that’s died down some. This is why I ask: Is what you posted just a troll post or something bigger? -

Agreed. Also bad in the House. Don’t see them crying about the rigged election either. -

What nonsense is this? -
LS is a big believer in defending any party's right to bring cases and suits, no matter the evidence or lack thereof. He was doubtless a big fan of the impeachment proceedings, another terrible and damaging moment in the last 4 years.

Kansas U sure has influence. I bet they could reverse their conclusion and stop Covid cold! -
How are the cases going? Lots of winning and tons of evidence holding up in court?

Thankful to be an American. Thankful to be a Bills fan. Thankful for all of you, even Q-baby! Have a great turkey day and close to 2020 fellow travelers.
