1) Is an opinion that isn't backed by science. I get that some people are probability disabled ... that unless something is a sure thing or not, they don't understand the value. As if guarantees in life are falling off trees. It's probably no coincidence you're not an actuary.
2) It's always good to ask where is that coming from. I mean really coming from. North Korea is treated as cute by comparison, but because China is a rival economic threat the self-loathing projection comes into play. China has a lot of things to teach the world in its own f'uppedness, even though it generates much of its own in its own way.
3) How do you feel about Ukraine and Russia? Do we send troops?
4) Fair point. I would prefer to see a third category or, better still, all genders removed.
5) I'm shocked at anyone who would.
6) Last I checked, he's still getting paid handsomely by Spotify.
7) So CNN turns out to be a lot like Roger Ailes reign at Fox News. Not a shocker, really. The bigger question is why television is still a thing in general. Unless if you're an active Facebook user wearing adult diapers.
I don't agree with Manchin's crony logic, but I think killing the filibuster would have been idiotic. All parties need moderates to keep their clowns in tow. Which is why I appreciated John McCain.

2.) Both NK & CN is despicable. CN just so happened to cost the world A LOT more money and collapse. Perfectly reasonable to blame them.
3.) Let Europe figure their own shit out. What is the point in sending them so much over NATO? If Europe is fine with Russia taking Ukraine back then so be it. In any case, I'd be curious to know what % of the population in Ukraine might actually want to be a part of Russia again (if any). Going to war with Russia is mental. Sucks for me, I could get activated to so it is what it is.
4.) Why remove all genders rather than have a separate league? I know some sports (martial arts, for example) mix genders if the person is good enough for a tournament, for example.
5.) Case closed.
6.) He is and rightfully so.
7.) Manchin & Sinema et al - don't agree with them usually, but may they hold the line. Agree on moderates. You need them to keep the stupid political pendulum from swinging too far

1) There is significant evidence that masks reduce probability of transmission per contact. Vaccines reduce the probability of severe symptoms, also significant evidence. Do we eventually have to learn to live with it? of course. But i don't understand where your views on masks and vaccines come from? its a shame that in the US an issue such as this has become politicized. My suspicion is those views are more politically motivated than anything else.
3) I'm not completely sure what they're protesting. Its not like the Canadian government invented Covid. Its not like governments love these restrictions, that their members keep getting caught violating, a lot of these measures have been necessary.
6) I am with you on Rogan. Has he said some things that may be construed as racist? yes of course, the guys has thousands of hours of audio and video recorded, of course you're going to find some questionable things he's said. But are we going to pretend he's even remotely racist now? Come on, one of his close friends is Dave Chapelle. the guy who walked away from 50M dollar deal because he thought the white executives he was working with started to laugh at him and not with him. You really think Chapelle would have any qualms confronting or cutting off Rogan if he was racist. Why not channel this energy on people who actually are racist, rather than going after people who might have said a few questionable things over their lifetime.

3.) Truckers were called heroes for a year (same for nurses, first responders, etc). When these mandates kicked in (in US & Canada) suddenly truckers weren't allowed to go into the grocery store to use the bathroom if they didn't show proof of vaccine (lol). Many restaurants wouldn't let people in to eat without papers. Then their businesses came for them - vaccine or termination. "Sophisticated" people love to shit on rednecks, working class, low/un-educated people but at the end of the day hardly any of them can change their own oil, do their brakes, go out and GET their own food, etc. I don't agree at all that these extreme measures have been necessary. Countries in Europe have had more relaxed measures and are doing just fine. I understand completely in the beginning when not enough was known about C19, but now it is, which is why you see that states and countries kept things light compared to others. You should do some research on migration IN the US over the last 2 years and see where people went and where they left.
6.) Good point about Dave. Agree - channel this energy on people that said things like not wanting his kids to "grow up in a racial jungle" or "Well I tell you what, if you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black."
