Well you don't know me, but I'm on record throughout this board as being a lifelong conservative who voted for Trump in 2016. I had some reservations when I voted for Trump, but I had been brainwashed to hate Hillary through Fox News. I also believed that he would be held in check by lifelong conservatives (boy was I wrong on all fronts). It took probably 6-8 mos for me to realize we were screaming down Shit Creek with no paddle and a moron as our river guide. I turned off Fox News and started doing my own analysis. That is the key part, that is what it will take to turn a Trump cult member. You have to get them to turn off Fox or OANN. This year was the first time I've ever donated money to a political campaign. I've contributed to the two democratic candidates that are running against Dan Crenshaw, voted for the first time ever in the Democratic Primary, ended up voting for Sima Ladjevardian for Congress and cast a vote for Pete though he apparently was offended because he dropped out practically the next day. Donated to MJ Hager (TX), Mark Kelly (AZ), Jaime Harrison (SC) and Amy McGrath (KY). I'm not going to support a party that enables Trump. So there is one former Trump voter on the Surl who has seen the light and won't be voting for him in 2020. Oh and I do love to troll, taunt, question and harass friends and family who still support that shitbag.39 points

Americans threw away all their freedoms and condoned a surveillance state constantly spying on them because of 3k deaths. Americans are acting like their rights (which they threw away for 3k deaths) are being violated and are ignoring a threat that's killing well over 50k Americans in less than 2 months. Why are Americans so fucking stupid? Who's that guy that moved to the Czech this year? How does one go about this?15 points

Because we are a broken society. The ethos in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, etc., very much involves understanding your place in the whole, and your role as a member of the commonwealth. There's a real belief in being part of society, and how your actions impact others. Seriously, it's an inherent part of who they are and how they make their way in the world. The ethos here, however, is "FUCK YOU I CAN DO WHAT I WANT!" And that's it. Our ethos is 100% "ME" and 0% "WE." Which has been making things worse and worse for all of us over many years, and is now reaching its obvious culmination -- the tragedy of the commons writ large.15 points

HOLY SHIT. This is a follow up to the Karen getting arrested at the playground. This is the mob outside of the arresting officer's house. https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/g69sul/protesters_gather_outside_of_officers_home/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x Rant. FUCK YOU ultra right wing motherfuckers. If this were a Latino or black mob confronting this officer's house, the Republican idiots would be calling for a full out SWAT assault on the people. Right wing nutjobs with AR15s would descend on the town looking to lynch people. But since it's crazy fucking suburban Trump idiots, then these people are patriots fighting tyranny. FUCK YOU!11 points

Because I’m a GOP troll, of course!!!1!111!1’ No. It’s because I fear this country is about to fall for a transparent propaganda play by the administration that will strengthen Trumpism. The goal of that play is to further divide us. We’re divided enough as it is. And I don’t believe there are many sane silent Republican voters. I do, however, know there are some who voted for Trump who regret that decision. Some have given up on the GOP (like Brisket and other vocal anti-Trumpers here did only a short while before the 2016 election). Others remain hopeful (and in my view, naive) Republicans who have convinced themselves there’s some core of conservative principles to which the party will return after Trump. Either way, they’re the enemy of our enemy now. It is to our benefit to accept them and not to drive them away merely because shunning idiots makes us feel superior.8 points

It wasn't covid that inverted the boards. It was Trump. On shaggy, there were right wing trolls, but there were also a significant amount of reasonable right wing voices. After Trump, the reasonable voices either seemingly moved leftward like Brisket, Twice, and LL or quit posting like Wulaw and Auburn fan. That left only the trolls who quickly ran to the DT safe space. Hammer and onboard have been spewing nonsense in DT for a few years now. Every mass shooting thread for the last few years looked just like the DT covid thread. DT is practically a snake oil board now.7 points

The craziest thing about COVID is that it inverted the CR and DT boards. Suddenly, CR is the home of data-driven analysis and DT is full of morons spouting off uninformed bullshit. Half of that thread is convinced we have herd immunity and they support that view by claiming up to 10% of the US has been infected. I don’t even know where to begin with such a Russian nesting doll of stupid.7 points

The masks help slow the spread even if they aren't ideal. Again, it isn't about you protecting YOU by wearing a mask. It is about you protecting other people by wearing a mask and vice-versa. Even a shoddy mask will limit the spread of droplets coming out of your mouth while talking, sneezing, coughing, etc. If everyone does it, the population wide effect can be quite large.7 points

Will you be safer from infection because you are wearing a mask/bandanna over your face? Maybe, but probably not significantly unless you have a high quality mask. Will you be safer because other people are wearing face coverings? Absolutely.7 points

Fuck that. I'm not complying. That is over the line. While the rest of the country is inching towards reopening, this little, errrr, strike that (thread rules). Something needs to happen between now and the 3pm press conference. A la mierda eso. No estoy cumpliendo Eso está por encima de la línea. Mientras el resto del país avanza lentamente hacia la reapertura, este pequeño, errrr, golpea eso (reglas de hilo). Algo debe suceder entre ahora y la conferencia de prensa de las 3 p.m.7 points

Loved it too. A few things. Gambling/Murder- His dad's murder had nothing at all to do with gambling/mafia etc. It was just random bad luck. The killers are in prison. They would have cut a deal if there was more to the story. Just a shame. Flu/Hangover- Silly rumor mongering. He had food poisoning. He was at the hotel with the crew all evening. No Vegas runs. Krause/Reinsdorf- Hard for me to blame Krause too much. Krause did not do anything that Reinsdorf didn't want or approve. The players were a bit passive aggressive going after Krause instead of Reinsdorf. Agreed that Krause was hard to like and had poor personal skills but he was who he was and Reinsdorf knew exactly what he was getting and it was exactly what he wanted. Pippen- Again, tough to blame the Bulls for not re-negotiating. They don't get to renegotiate contracts of players who go bust. Players' like to say it is just a business when they get all they can for themselves and then get their feelings hurt when the owners act like it is a business. Plus, the reality was that Pippen was a very, very good NBA player that was great as a number two. He was not a number one player. In '97 there were plenty of guys you would take over Pippen including: Ewing, Olajuwan, Malone, Shaq, Barkley etc. You could build a team around those guys but not Pippen. Krause actually realized this and was never going to give him a huge deal. It is certainly arguable that Pippen was under paid late in his contract with the Bulls but then you would have to concede that he was massively over paid after the Bulls. Phil Jackson- The genius of Phil was not his ability to handle Jordan but his ability to handle everyone else plus the triangle. The same exists for Poppovitch, Kerr, Riley etc. They had systems in place that gave the role players a routine. There was little thinking or ad-libbing. Very little standing around watching the super star. Jordan forced out the previous coaches because they were not holding the rest of the team to a high enough standard. Jordan did not really want to have to demand it from his teammates (although he certainly did) he wanted the coach to do it for him. Phil was actually really good about demanding excellence from the bit players. Of course Jordan was still incredibly hard on his teammates in practice. The only other guy that had that same practice mentality was Magic. Impossible to know if the championship run would have been able to continue or if they would have won when Jordan went to baseball. IMO, I think they win in '99 for sure and probably win one of the middle two years. One thing about Jordan, he was always very, very guarded in his public statements and image while playing. Never political. He cultivated an image to maximize his endorsements. His father's death took a huge toll on him, even though he sort of downplayed it in the media. Jordan's emotions after the '96 championship are amazing. His first retirement had nothing to do with gambling at all. He was tired, having marital issues, his dad was murdered, he was fantastically rich and just wasn't sure he could put in the effort he knew it would require to win it all. He wasn't willing to play just to cash a check and not be 100%. Greatest of all time when you combine ability, drive, work ethic, mental toughness and focus. You sacrifice a lot to succeed at that level.6 points

I had no idea it was this serious. Didn't know that you were facing hardships as serious as not being able to take a vacation this year. I apologize for offering up my opinion on how the virus will impact travel on the thread about how the virus will impact travel. I should have sugar coated it to protect your delicate sensibilities in this grave time.6 points
