I always had a certain admiration for the Taiwanese, as representatives of true Chinese culture, untainted my Mao-ism.

It’s remarkable how well Taiwan’s countermeasures have paid off. I expect there’s a lot we’re going to learn from them in the coming weeks.

Thank you, Taiwan.

Nixon and Bush picked the wrong China to cozy up to.

We need goggles too. The virus can enter through our eyeballs.

Speaking of masks, one thing that happened in our area is some totally dumbass church folks bought up all the canister filters and masks and sent them to China for their people to use. Just dumb, stupid, ignorant narrow minded clod hoppers.

Now our own people, including the kin of those that did it, cannot find them for our own use.

Keep in mind, I am Christian, but when totally dumber and AOC types do “the Christian thing”, it really ticks me off. Just think how wonderful it is, you retards, to self sacrifice your own so that those that caused it can live.
