    FOX is not far left and they always brag about their ratings topping CNN and MSNBC so there are a lot of folks out there listening to far right media too. In fact, I would say that far right media outlets now outnumber far left outlets. I have no date to support that, it's just a guess.

    The great failing of people who profess to no religious morality is that they cut no slack to those who do. To profess morality does not make one perfect (I thought "nobody's perfect" is one of life's irrefutable maxims); it means they strive for a higher behavioral standard. That they will occasionally miss is a given.

    I suppose it depends on the person. I hold no other person to a higher standard than I hold myself. You are correct that professing morality does not make one perfect...in fact, many times that profession of morality comes back to haunt them in cruelly ironic way. Sometimes it seems that the person riding highest on their high horse is the one who takes the hardest, nastiest fall. I am pretty forgiving of others short comings, especially those who have over looked my own, and generally I call them my friend, religious or not. But make no mistake, a profession of morality puts up a red flag. Why say it? Why not just do it? I've always told my son to watch out for people who tell you they are smart, sane or can fight. Usually they are not or cannot.

    I don't have a chain to yank. Yank your own chain.

    LOL. You're too dumb to understand that "chain" in this circumstance is a metaphor for "brain".

    thats not true, the data on this shows that old people are the most boosted group in america. my parents are boosted, as are yours. there is substantial circumstantial evidence that any given old person is fairly recently boosted

    yes, that is the point, i am not ruling anything out, but you are. i am not making an affirmative claim that she had a booster, and that the booster hurt her. i am saying its a possibility, given how frequently seniors are getting boosters, and the lack of long term data on the boosters side effects.

    so we are clear here, your claim is that it is not possible the booster shot hurt her at all? i dont want to put words in your mouth here, so lets clarify what you think. keep in mind we dont know if or when she was boosted, and we have claims that she specifically waas not boosted 3 days ago. that leaves many other days available.

    how exactly can you rule this out? how can you claim the booster didnt hurt her? to be honest i dont even exactly understand how the mechanisms of mRNA work, its wildly outside the scope of my knowledge. i know what is the capitol of uzbekistan, i know other things. for all i know this vaccine interacts with vitamin d or sickle cells or your myelin, or maybe your bile ducts or your pancreatic function, or your ability metabolize bean proteins, how the fuck should i know?

    i think we might be well served to have an open mind about the possible side effects of drugs. we have less of a grasp on human physiology than some believe.

    well thats true enough. i find that almost anyone doing any sort of the most minor virtue signaling is a scoundrel.

    allow me a quick diatribe on charity, conspicuous acts of virtue, etc. unrelated to anything being discussed here, just a general rant.

    really any mention of one's noble activities is a red flag. gave to charity? so what, fuck yourself. care about the popular fashionable issues of the day? eat a dick. changed your social media icon for whatever awareness week/month? fuck yourself, faggot.

    also basically any "charitable" thing anyone does is generally useless at best and probably destructive. except maybe really god things like donating to childrens hospitals, adopting fucked up kids and giving them a good life, and donating blood.

    really i kinda agree with the ayn rand clowns that think greed is good and just living your lives consuming and shit is the best way to help others. buying yachts to fuck supermodels on creates jobs.

    rant over

    i like to point out that the most maligned group in terms of wokeness, white americans, is actualy historically the most inclusive and tolerant group maybe in human history. as you might remember i like to brag about how much i have traveled. 75 countries. almost all of them catastrophically racist and sexist compared to the ethos of the average white conservative american.
