Flubros and Flubras! Day 53 (A place for Flubros and Flubras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

It’s good too see from our poll yesterday, and also from reading other threads, that a large percentage of Freepers have come around to the Flubro mindset.

Some things of interest to Flubros:

1. Is Kozak going to post less than 1000 supposedly died of CV yesterday (a new low). Numbers are low on Sunday relative to Monday but this is still a good thing that deaths attributed to CV are falling.

2. What will be the first the state to say no restrictions whatsoever? Is there any state now (don’t think so but not sure) that has no restrictions. Is there any state with close to no restrictions? Is there any state where the people can worship God as they want to? Is there any state that allows restaurants to make a profit like they used to? Is there any state government unafraid to have children attend school?

Interesting that we both came to the same conclusion from separate starting points.

Although I don’t know what how your reply relates to the thread, I do know that I enjoyed learning about futuristic manufacturing processes.

Don’t be so trusting of Leftitsts.
The virus is just a cover for conducting a general strike. The end goal to destroy DJT and capitalism.
It’s not more complex than that.

I posted this to Cuban Leaf on another thread, but I think all Flubros need to think about whether they are making COVID responses a litmus test for what they consider a conservative to be, and whether that's really a wise idea.

COVID will pass. Other issues require conservatives of all opinions on COVID response to come back together to defeat those issues.

Response from other thread...

No you've just made COVID shut down a litmus test for what you think is conservative. If someone thinks the shutdown was a good idea, or even a necessary evil, then you think they are on the left.

Trump however agreed with the shutdown and still believes as do I that it saved 1.5 million lives. But Trump also acknowledges that the cure can't be worse than the disease, and the lock down can't continue indefinitely.

It's a bad litmus test you have. It doesn't extend to other issues. And you've excluded about 75% of Republicans from your definition of "right".

"Similarly, the Navigator Research polling found that 51 percent of Republicans agreed that “we are currently doing the right thing when it comes to social distancing,” compared with 24 percent who favor more aggressive social distancing and just 21 percent who want fewer restrictions.1"

Those on the side of lockdown are wrong and those on the side of opening up are right. Many people have shifted from the wrong camp to the right camp, including Trump. Trump very much appears to be in favor of more opening for several weeks now.

A conservative is someone, IMO, who puts the US constitution first. I fail to see how Freedom of Religion, for example, has been honored by this lockdown. Therefore, I find it hard to say someone is a conservative and pro lockdown at the same time.

But Trump doesn’t say the shut down was a mistake.
I’m in favor of opening up gradually too, just like Trump.

The constitutional issues are being tried in the courts. There are duly enacted Emergency powers laws at the Federal level and at the state level in most if not all states.

There is a 100 year old SCOTUS precedent that supports the Emergency powers as constitutional.

There are challenges to various actions working their way through courts now, but the only challenges that I’ve seen successful so far are those that claim it’s been unequally applied.

No recent ruling that I’m aware of have stated that the emergency powers themselves are unconstitutional.

Even the recent KY Temporary restraining order allowing Temple Baptist to hold in person services this Sunday, stated that the Emergency powers were constitutional. The judge in that case stated that if Social distancing was good enough for Kroger then it should be good enough for the church. I think he wrongly equated grocery shopping, food being necessary for life, with the church service, which is not life threatening.

Anytime a so-called 'conservative' finds himself on the same side as the enemy, then what are they really?

The best thing they can be is stupid. I'll let you figure out the rest.

And you've excluded about 75% of Republicans from your definition of "right".

Your numbers as as off as the rona numbers. There are quite a few people who call themselves 'Republicans' who are actually 'Republicants'. And for your information, Mister Wisenheimer, the number of Americans who recognize this scam for what it is grows daily.

You find yourself in the enemy's camp doing the enemy's work.

p.s. During the American revolution, the majority of the colonists agreed with the English and supported the masters against their patriot brothers. Back then, they called them Fearbros, just like today.

Trump can’t say it was a mistake...but his words over the past few weeks are that he wants the removal of the lockdown accelerated. Are you saying you want it accelerated.

If emergency powers are constitutional that doesn’t mean there isn’t a legal litmus test to see if the emergency has been met here. I don’t think courts would uphold that there is an emergency anywhere right now.

I like the three phase plan his administration put out.

I think Trumps words have to be measured by the current guidelines his admin is offering.

I actually think the courts will uphold the emergency status, except where it’s been applied unequally. A judge is not likely to overrule CDC and NIH statements and guidelines.

Trump knows that his administration’s 3 phase plan (which lasts at least 42 days after cases in a state start to drop) is trash. This is why he is pushing for relaxing the rules in various states. Texas hasn’t met the phase 1 criteria as far as I can tell and we are opening up. Big emphasis on temperature checks and contact tracing in the Fed’s plan - totally overbearing.

That’s an excellent history lesson - yes, in fact Fearbro was the term used by patriots during the American revolution when they were describing loyalists to the crown living in America. Also Washington crossed the Delaware with a division of Flubros, as I recall.

Is the rest of the world in on the conspiracy to "destroy Trump" as well?

NWO has no geographical boundaries or loyalty to nation

we are an important country and all but not so important that other nations would destroy their economies in order to help Leftists over here achieve their political ends.

America falls, they all fall.
This is capitalism vs communism.
Prosperity and liberty vs serfdom and bondage.
good vs evil

You’re quite the patriot now, acting concerned about future issues on which we will need to be able to come together. I’ll bet you didn’t miss a single paycheck while the government was destroying the dreams of over 30 million people. The damage from this hysteria induced overreaction will be legendary, and hopefully the result will prevent the government from ever imprisoning us for our own safety again. So put on your silly mask and gloves and go out there and proudly declare that you saved America.
