Flubros and Flubras! Day 42 (a place for Flubros and Flubras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

How can this level of tyranny be justified for what is really just the flu? Even though this overblown Wuhan flu crisis isn’t over, just think of the next virus pandemic when some children might actually die. The media will clamor for another lockdown - politicians will react accordingly because they don’t want the blood of the children on their hands. They now have the blueprint for obtaining more socialism in the future.

This social distancing is not natural. Anything that involves widespread, sustained and significant deviations from natural human behavior will lead to terrible consequences. And whoever suggests this deviation is likely a leftist tyrant.

Newsom is an idiot and closing California beaches because of Wuhan flu is idiotic. Is it truly healthier to be stuck in your home all day or to be out in the sun? At least some steps toward freedom are happening in some Red states - let’s keep the progress coming there.

Who expected to become a fan of Elon Musk and Sweden before this started? A Flubro commented recently that he will never make fun of Sweden again.

Vietnam 58318

I'm not sure what the point of comparing COVID-19 mortalities is to those killed / died during Vietnam, other than to sensationalize COVID-19 mortalities at the expense of those that died during Vietnam.

It just seems intellectually lazy.

It is lazy, on a normal year, more people are getting murdered than died in Vietnam. More people die of heart disease or cancer on a normal year than died from Vietnam.

CORRECTION: The number of Vietnamese killed was likely way higher than the number of Americans killed.

Pneumonia always has heart attacks and strokes as a side effect as the lungs throw off clots. (Google it!)

Everything I said, and that is the bit you want to focus on?

Yes, anyone who might possibly be disagreeing with you is a Nazi. Good luck with that line of argument.

Yup. I've also heard it causes gunshot wounds and car crashes too.

You've heard that from the people who want to pretend it isn't killing people in far greater numbers than the flu. You haven't heard that from anyone rational.

The probalities are higher that the numbers are inflated to substantiate fear, panic, and to advance a political narrative and affect an election.

I've heard that theory. Might be something to it, but most of the people spreading it want this theory to be true.

You're dumb.

Very much doubt that, but I can assure you this method of arguing (calling your opponents names) doesn't work. Nobody regards themselves as dumb, and so they merely reject this claim as a baseless attack.

If you want to convince people they are dumb, (again, a hard task), then you have to demonstrate how they are dumb by showing them that they believe something for foolish reasons. Show them that their logic is seriously flawed.

Just calling them dumb washes off people like water on a duck's back. They simply reject the claim without even giving it a moment's thought.

Those probabilities you cite rank right up there with “No. You don’t f***ing need to test the body. The probability is quite high that Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide.”

Sure, if you have 60,000 Jeffery Epsteins all dying around the same time.

19,510 murders per year according to this site.

Didn't see your message before I posted. You are correct.

Are you saying that in this last month or so, everyone counted as a Covid 19 death was a corrupt wealthy pedophile with enemies in high places?

Seems pretty unlikely to me.

Wait, what?
Every day, you ask us to prove your negatives and you won’t prove ours?
That’s not very sociable.

“””That’s not very sociable.”””


Define “sociable”.

“Diogenes is said to have eaten in the marketplace,[48] urinated on some people who insulted him,[49] defecated in the theatre,[50] and masturbated in public.”

“On the indecency of his masturbating in public he would say, “If only it were as easy to banish hunger by rubbing my belly.”

I read every work of your message — you are wrong on ALL accounts.

First your assumption: In other epidemics the assumed cases were counted — first you dont know this — second, small pox if pretty freaking obvious based on its presentation as is Polio, thirdly they did not necessarily have the ability to test to the level of sophistication we have at the moment — we SHOULD be more accurate, but are not...probably money driven

Secondly: (and this is my favorite) THIS IS LIKE NO VIRUS WE HAVE EVER SEEN. you are so FULLL of crap. This is the difference between actually knowing what you are talking about and standing at bedside. The stroke study you are referring to are five case reports in the popular literature. The heart attacks? Almost every patient who goes into shock and sepsis and ARDS has an elevated sensitive Troponin which is classified by those who have no idea what they are talking about as Heart attacks.

Every case of ARDS can and usually does yield MOSF (multi-organ system failure) because shock of shocks, then lungs are not conveying sufficient amounts of oxygen to the organs that get damaged.

I really love that you tell me I didn’t read your message. I read every part of it. I can tell you have no response to my arguments (which cannot be broken) because of your lame ass response.

Please, by all means, continue to reveal yourself to be the doorknob that your posts demonstrate.

Well by your snotty post to another on this thread you are dumb if you dont argue and convince someone...your words. I have presented you a compelling argument, your response: I didn’t ready your whole post.

By your own standards, you are as dumb as a doorpost.
