The convergence of all the bad people from all parts of the spectrum into one big supergroup has some serious Traveling Wilburys energy, with about the same expected death rate.

Many of these protestors are carrying around thousands of dollars in toys. One woman at the PA “rally” had a $4k min camera rig. The tactilol kits cost at least as much. These are not financially desperate people.

They're people who have never had a period of unemployment in their life, likely being just senior enough to survive downturns in 2000 and 2009, and being shut down by the state for health is the first time they've ever faced unexpected loss of income. I saw some interview with a lady in Iowa who had never been unemployed in 40 years

That's why these protests are "working" - it's not the protests, they represent the exact same people, and probably are the exact same people, who are big fish in all the small ponds in every suburban town across every state. These are the guys who donate to small time elections, help with fundraisers, etc. They have politicians ears via pocketbooks, not because they brandish weapons they'll never use

On a side note, telling the landlords on your local subreddit who are mad about lost rent that they should have six months of expenses saved up for a rainy day will probably get you banned

As you before noted, they’re upset they can’t get their endorphins from abusing servers and other help. Same reason these people love cruises and Vegas

I've seen that talking point get repeated by people like Eli Massey and I think it's time the American left just gets put out to pasture.

I've also added some professional models to the guessing pool. If I figure out a good way to make lower and upper bounds for the C-SPAM guesses I'll add them in (but I may have to discard some outliers).



Overall our median guess of 169421 is the second highest in this list. We'll see who is right, idiot epidemiologists or enlightened C-SPAM.

this is weird to read because I'm not very active on social media besides SA, but I went to town (3-4,000 ppl) for the first time in a couple weeks today to do the safest-possible grocery re-up. Everything was close to deserted at 3pm on a Saturday, basically everyone was wearing masks inside anywhere and it was 50/50 or better outside. The limited groups of people I saw doing stuff like sitting in circles of chairs in yards, were mostly distanced more severely than you'd normally see.

I haven't been to Burlington; no idea if the city green is full of people packed too tight. We've theoretically been past peak for like 3 weeks now, so I won't be surprised to see people relaxing soon. It will take much more data and time to make me relax.
