Coronavirus (COVID-19) (SARS-CoV-2)

Got it... anyone who disagrees or questions your statements is, by sheer definition, moving the goal posts.

Well, not that we're on that same page... Where is my point at all incorrect?

Oh... wait... i forgot... to even question you moves the goal posts again.

great you got it. another clear and glaring example of moving the goalposts

who cares if your point was correct or incorrect when you were addressing something I said with something not having anything to do with what I said (moving the goalposts)


I am glad that you actually do know what I am talking about but it is sad that you are too little to simply have a discussion without the amateurish jibberish attempting to rearrange the argument. Y'all are just like the democrats
 
Because you are a fucking idiot

Okay.

Let's say I did as you claim I should...I would've been off from work starting in March, because I've had a cough, stuffy nose, sore throat, etcetera, on and off since March. It's called allergies. But, I suppose to appease sissies like you, I should've taken 4-6-8 however many weeks off and just wait for the seasonal allergies to pass. I should be back to work by maybe late September.

Do you want to pay my bills in the meant time?

Get over it.

I guess "tested positive" is part of an alien language to you.

Name calling is a democrat thing, so i think you proved where you stand.

You claimed that the government has the right to force a person who is sick to be imprisoned in their home because they pose a risk to others. More people die from the flu annually than likely will from COVID, yet mentioning that causes you so much anxiety that your arguments lock up and turn to "you moved the goal posts!"

It's amazing to me how many people who claim to support liberty are amongst the first to support or demand government step in an essentially put folks on house arrest.

But... goal posts, n stuff.
 
Ordinarily, I might agree with you, but when we are in the middle of a pandemic... You have to use more common sense.

Honestly, even pre-pandemic, staying home when you are sick is the considerate thing to do for your coworkers...

On the plus side, I along with the rest of our crew all tested negative. *including the older guy that had the most contact with the positive case.

Of course you all tested negative, because it isn't very contagious.

Like I replied to Paragon...allergies, other minor issues, all cause similar symptoms. Telling someone to stay home from work because they have the sniffles or a little bit of a sore throat is absolutely asinine. How is any business going to operate if all the employees call off, because they "might" be sick. Seriously, consider this. Would YOU burn up weeks of vacation time if you were fully functional, maybe with allergies, maybe with COVID-19, just to be safe? No, you wouldn't. Who wants to burn up weeks of vacation for a cough?

I claimed that dumbfucks like you are so fucking stupid that you billybadass yourselves all out in public and shit once tested positive because dur hur liberty and shit. I pointed out that liberty comes with responsibility and because of you inbred dumb fucking kunts, that the .gov is required to step in to treat you like the ignorant fucking 2 yo you are acting like.

You refuse to take personal responsibility and want to cradle your sensitive ignorance in a swath of national death statistics like it's some kind of microwavable warm, cuddly blanket while incoherently skipping over very simple and basic personal responsibility. If this shit's death rate was associated with the inbred dumb mutherfuckers like you and killed only stupid people, you would be crying how everyone else and the government isn't coddling your balls, or where you balls are supposed to be
 
Its official, we as a nation are too stupid for democracy.

that's because as a nation, we are a republic.

every nation is too stupid for democracy. hell, democracy is too stupid for democracy unless there is only one member of the democracy

Thought so. :laughing::laughing:

Conversing with you is about useless.

I just imagine you sitting there, anxiously hitting the refresh button on the page, ready to post a reply with zero substance, but plenty of inflammatory words in the hopes of...whatever it is you hope to do with posts like this. :laughing:
 
I guess 99% mild symptoms and up to 80% asymptomatic is of an alien language to you. :homer:​​​​​​​

yes, that would be a foreign language. 179% is weird

or 80% of the people with mild symptoms were asymptomatic is weird

So, in your alien language, is that 19% difference reverse doggy-style symptomatic?

See, there is where you problem lies with your overt stupidity. You think you are conversing.

Tell you what. Go have a cup of coffee (if you are allowed to), take a couple of deep breathes and then come back and see if you can make an attempt at a conversation.
 
Gotta give Gary credit for registering as paragon... well played.

Gary doesn't have the wit to pretend to me be. Just note all of my comments as the greatness they are and bow to my infinite wisdom. see if you can figure out who that is
 
Boy, these Pirate/Irate COVID threads all seem to be the same. We have members too scared to leave their homes, telling everyone else they're going to kill ten people if they leave their homes, and the rest living life not giving a damn.

I'm out. :smokin:

Moving the goalposts completely from the field of play. Logical fallacy much?

Like virtually everything else in today's society, shit gets politicized and everyone is supposed to pick one extreme or the other based on political lines. Fuck that shit. It's idiotic. The reality is that wearing simple masks and making simple social distancing efforts greatly reduces the spread of this virus. Just fucking do that and get on with life. The idiots who want to huddle in their basements are overreacting unless they fit into a very vulnerable category (elderly with multiple underlying health conditions). The idiots who think we should just get back to normal while taking zero precautions are ignoring reality.

What? I'm removing myself from arguing with people like you. We could post a whole page of facts and you'd still just tell us we're stupid fucking hillbilly mouth breathers.

Well, I'm one of those idiots. I see no reason or concrete evidence to support taking any precautions. Numbers have been manipulated so they're worthless. With states reopening and hospitals not being flooded with sick and dying...well, that speaks volumes over convoluted numbers.

states are seeing record high hospitalizations Young-uns are leading the charge

I think you're ignoring reality. Multiple states are running short on ICU rooms. Numbers have been rising sharply ever since Memorial Day and hospitalization generally trails a positive test by 2-3 weeks. I would agree with your "no concrete evidence" if I was talking about another lockdown. IMO, that's not warranted. But snowflakes acting like a simple face mask is greatly inhibiting their life or infringing on their freedoms are just laughable. It's a very simple step to take that is minimally intrusive and has been clinically shown to GREATLY reduce the spread of this virus. I'm sure a bunch of people bitched and moaned about their freedoms and the massive inconvenience of wearing a seatbelt when they were first invented too. The big difference here is that failing to wear a seat belt primarily just impacts the person making that decision while failing to wear a face mask impacts everyone you're encountering.

Well, if you could post a whole page of facts that are directly related to the argument, you would lessen your appearance of being a stupid fucking hillbilly mouthbreather
 
Texas is now closing bars as of noon today. Restaurants have to go back to 50% capacity starting Monday. Also, people are starting to hoard TP again. First stash must have ran out.
