This is a short thread I was involved in today. Notice how one poster tries to steer the language of the discussion, which literally started with the weather. Slight changes were made to remove mild vulgarisms, and to remove screen names, as NextDoor has region restrictions on access.
Rachel: WTH??? It seems mother nature is angry again and taking it out on us, she has decided to fry us like chicken.
Dr. Sivana:She must really be mad at the folks in Georgia, then, it routinely gets to be 100 and EXTREMELY HUMID in the summer. I moved to Phoenix in part because I like hot dry weather. But your mileage may vary.
Dennis: Mother nature wants us to stay INDOOR during the CCP- virus aka Corona virus-19
Rachel: Its official classification is SARS-COV 19
Dr. Sivana: Well, if you are concerned about the CCP-virus, it doesn't like hot weather. Of course, being outside is NOT an issue, being too close to other people who might be carrying it can be an issue. Going for a walk on a sunny day (not in crowds) is fine.
Rachel: Dr. Sivana, please stop calling it CCP-virus, that's not its classification or name
Dr. Sivana: This is Next Door, not a scholarly paper. It is a descriptive term, and I intend to continue using it, as people know what I mean when I say it.
Rachel: Dr. Sivana it is false information, spreading false information is dangerous
Dr. Sivana: Rachel, No. It is not false information. It is more accurate than a sterile number, as the CCP was largely responsible for its early spread by its disinformation and withholding of information ... well documented. Quick, what is the official name of the 1968-1969 Hong Kong Flu? (answer: A (H3N2)). Most of us will continue to call it Hong Kong Flu, lest it be lost in a sea of Hs and Ns. I think I will stick with the accurate and descriptive CCP Virus. You can use the bureaucratic terminology if you like.
Karens like her are bringing our civilization to an end.
Invite her to FR...
Rachel sounds like a pubic school teacher.
Thank a pubic school teacher for America’s decline.
its the internets,, highly censored ..
Gonna guess that maybe she's busy reporting Dennis and you to get you both suspended.
It might have been a threat.
I was suspended from Nextdoor for using the same language the good Dr. Sivana used in early March. I logged out and have never been back.
I used the site to get some bargains on furniture & appliances as well as helping my son earn some extra money for doing manual labor for the rich snobs that live in the enclave next to us.
You were nicer than I likely would have been...I would have asked her if she was the “official speech monitor “
Maybe leave this childish drama on nextdoor and off here? Thhaannkkksss
Too much exposure to liberal talking points, and clueless on top of it.
Same story here in Littleton, Colorado. Our NextDoorcom is filled with "Rachels/Karens" and I've learned not to swim in that infected cess pool, per politics. However, when I have stumbled accidentally on some Beta's toesies, I'll hit hard on any cowardly rude attacks or idiotic postulations or phoney virtue signals and call them out by name, and very effectively. I can always tell when it has been crushing, because that's when the MODS are flagged. They then passive aggressively admonish me. I never start it, but I'll happily and publically finish it, yet it's me who's the bad guy. I like how the Dr. handled herself! However, I'll bet she's the one whom the MOD will address in that thread.
OH, AND A PIECE OF TRIVIA: Has anyone here, who uses NextDoor, noticed that it's usually the Karen types who start their scolding Covid lectures with "Look, People!..."
... Cuz, see “stuckup in NOLA” is just so wayyyyy “above it all”.
Love it. You might appreciate this story. During a power outage here in NorCal last fall we were all buying ice to put in our freezers. One of the Karens flagged me down in the street: did I know where to get ice — specifically dry ice? Knowing she was low-info global warmer, I admonished her with, “You do know dry ice is CO2, right?” She replied, “Ooh, you’re right. Thanks for the reminder.”
Excellent! Next remind her that wet ice is dihydrogen monoxide.
:)
Thank you, Dr! I caught that I was being too presumptuous as soon as I hit “POST”. Ha!
