Does GZ talk about functional solutions? Jimmy Dore doesn't seem to be.

unfortunately ol jimmy is a dumdum and it really shows with his covid coverage. he is close to seeing the big picture but is incapable of thinking through one more layer of abstraction or something, gz seems just as bad. having reasonably good morals and a tuned bullshit detector is only beneficial when he's doing media criticism, he sounds like the moron he is anytime he's expressing an original thought

Even people I used to respect like Blumenthal can’t escape the American curse of individualism.

Its unacceptable nazi poo poo to demand that people take a safe and life saving vaccine to go to concerts and stuff.

The virus mostly kills the old and sick. So the democratic and free way is to thin the herd and let the strong survive!

am i missing something? this tweet seems to be about a weird military tradition and blumenthal's tweet seems to be about how germany should probably be very quiet about their weird military traditions

"About Face: The Odyssey of an American Warrior", by Col. David H. Hackworth

I'm only partway through it but it's a very interesting book about a guy that started from a bottom as an enlisted man, made his way to becoming top brass, and got increasingly disgusted with the institutional rot in the US military the farther up he got.

The way he writes about his experience in Korea, where there was a credibility gap and meandering leadership, you'd think it was Vietnam.

quote:

Pentagon scientists claim to have invented a sensor that once inserted under the skin will detect if the patient develops Covid-19.

And they have also developed a revolutionary filter that can remove the virus from the patient’s blood through a dialysis machine.

Researchers at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) say they have been working for years on ways to prevent and to end pandemics.

Their work on the sensor was revealed on 60 Minutes on CBS on Sunday night.

Retired Colonel Matt Hepburn, an army infectious disease physician leading DARPA’s response to the pandemic, showed off the technology on the show.

The idea for the invention came after 1,271 infections were recorded on board the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier in 2020.

The sensor, which does not track movements, is carried in a tissue-like gel and is designed to continuously test the patient’s blood.

“You put it underneath your skin and what that tells you is that there are chemical reactions going on inside the body, and that signal means you are going to have symptoms tomorrow,” explained Col Hepburn.

If you want a test to see if you have covid, I'd think that wearing a mask would be... normal?


Test situation is entirely hosed up though, everywhere near me is out from people testing for christmas. Good economic system, 5 stars.

Gradkeno made a post to this affect a while ago, and it was good and right then and now. American leftism needs to embrace more state power and yield to the fact that a strong central power is the only way leftist movements have succeeded.
