And heterosexual. 

Nonsense, they also value the rural poor in as much as they are a reliable republican voting bloc. I mean sure, they don’t actually want to help the rural poor, that’s what bootstraps are for, but they do want to vocally pander to them while only really acting to help the rich white men you speak of.

Tbh we could use some socialist death panels right about now

But this is a CAPITALIST death panel so Jesus approves.

The fact that Trump hasn’t gotten to golf, and his properties haven’t been able to grift the government, for almost 2 weeks has to play into this idiodic GOP talking point.

I think the thing people are missing is if (well, I guess, when) the healthcare system is overwhelmed EVERYONE dies. That kid having an anaphylactic reaction? Dead. That 20-something having an asthma attack? Dead. Pretty much anyone with cancer? Dead.

Literally the fucking people who were fearmongering over “socialist death panels” for seniors within extremely recent memory.

Stolen:

Wage earners are supposed to have 9 months of pay in reserve for emergencies, but corporations are so mismanaged that they are about to go bankrupt after two weeks of reduced profits.

“The Republican party has always shown that the lives they value are young, able-bodied, and ready to contribute to the economy”

Cool. Then he can ask if everyone else is willing to be hospitalized for the economy. 8o% of deaths may have been 65+, but the people hospitalized and in ICU’s are pretty evenly spread amongst age groups — apparently everybody’s been sharing that pain.

Love that political party that makes a huge show of being “pro life” while encouraging the undesirables to die.

I exist because my grandfather was a traveling salesman and out of town when the 1918 flu killed every single person in his family all at once. Wife, four sons, mother, and mother in law. All dead within 24 hours of each other. He moved out west, and that is why I was born. He never got over the horror.

The ones on our end really get to me: someone who considered it a flu (but does not get flu shots because it’s a scam from the Man to control us and weaken our black queens/kings) then got extra when it hit Idris (by conspiring about why would someone’s wife WANT TO STAY AROUND HER HUSBAND if it wasn’t a hoax) only to…

In Brazil, they take this shit seriously. The beach is closed, asshole. (Stick around for the end.)

It takes a special kind of asshole to do something like this.

Or you know, have an exchange program, get the immigrants out of the camps and fire these asshats in.

Round these selfish ass shitheads up and lock them all in those unused pro stadiums where they can just infect each other.

And here’s a fun option worth remembering for those logging in to a Zoom call—specifically, one for your job. If enabled, a meeting’s host can see if you’re actually paying attention to the meeting or potentially doing something else when you should be focusing cough cough hint hint.

With the rapid uptake of Zoom as a main video-chat-provider-of-choice for schools, churches and private folks across the coutry, I’m going to be really REALLY surprised if we don’t start seeing a deluge of internet trolls “dialing in” to random Zoom meeting URLs to be jerks at people.
