Jesus, really. You think you are winning the argument that "the enemy within" is a problem? You think asking our military to help enforce laws is a bad thing?

You also apparently don't remember I warned you during Covid that I was going to remind you how wrong you were and weren't going to allow you to use the "science changes" line.

What you advocated for did far more damage to the American fabric than Trump marshalling troops to uphold the law. THAT is why you have no leg to stand on. Your suicidal empathy choices consistently put you on the wrong side. It's why CH nailed it on the head when he stated that you have bad instincts.

Your 1918 example proves my point. The IFR for COVID was close to a bad respiratory illness season. The 1918 pandemic was far deadlier. Not even close to the same. Surprisingly you also don't know that health officials realized many things, like the whole protocol you advocated for didn't help the 1918 pandemic and was trotted out during Covid, but there you are, speaking out your ass when it comes to facts/data. Jesus, you even butchered the 1918 pandemic.
Blah blah blah Covid denial blah blah blah…that’s all I read. :lol:
Covid denial? Jesus Christ. This is EXACTLY what I have been pointing out to you. You supported everything wrong with pandemics and drove authoritarian initiatives and then are too uninformed to realize you were on the wrong side of fucking humanity over. Then, to make matters worse, you incorrectly quote the learnings of the 1918 pandemic.

Do you understand how badly your stance damaged everything?

SG, our self appointed genius “Klamdami” will never be able to lower himself enough to understand it

Your post reminded me of a quote by Thomas Sowell

“Of all ignorance, the ignorance of the educated is the most dangerous. Not only are educated people likely to have more influence, they are the last people to suspect that they don't know what they are talking about when they go outside their narrow fields."

Thomas nailed it

Said the guy with a BA from Harvard, a masters from Columbia, and a PhD from the University of Chicago. :lol:

If you want to honor the uneducated, read up on Eric Hoffer or better yet, read his masterpiece, True Believer (I did). It was one of the more important books on social psychology and mass movements of the 20th century. Hoffer lived on Skid Row for a while doing odd jobs, tried panning for gold, and eventually became a longshoreman.

And Hoffer was a moderate conservative.

No, Thomas Sowell is someone who was quoted as saying this

“It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance”

Have you made it to this point yet TDS 88?

Yes. We clearly suffer from an over abundance of educated people and experts. Sowell being a great example. :lol:

Yes. We clearly suffer from an over abundance of indoctrinated people and self appointed experts. Sowell sets a great example for recognizing it. :lol:
