Coffee and TV

This was a mock-up someone did when trying to make a point about Chief Wahoo being the face of the Cleveland Indians. Similar situation here one would think, but at least the Washington NFL team's logo isn't as gross.

Ah the ole "your outrage is fake because you didn't protest in the streets 5 years ago" galaxy brained take, like we're all living in a static timeline where nothing changes and no one learns any new information throughout their lifetime. What's the cutoff date for when one had to speak up in order to support progress and hope for the name to be removed? What if I said the name should change on twitter or facebook in 2012 but not on gomeangreen.com, am I allowed to be outraged?

I never said you did, i'm just puzzled that seems to be your go to logic whenever someone posts about the increase in cases. It would be pretty understandable if it were a cold or a mutation of chicken pox, but this thing overloading hospital systems is what will kill way more than the virus alone under ideal treatment conditions.

"bUt tHe dEaTh rAtE IS dEclinIng" i attempt to scream before the ICU nurse reattaches my ventilator.

I'm sure this is fine

Nevermind that while the roots of the KKK were the post-war Dems of the South at the time, the KKK infiltrated and aligned itself with whichever party had a stronghold. In the south that meant the Dems, but in Midwestern states it was the GOP just the same.

I know 1984 gets overused a lot on both sides of the political spectrum, but jesus christ...

"I told them to slow down the testing" Yeah, Hillary or Biden would be far worse...

What about this doc in Houston saying they're running out of ICU beds? Is he a part of the media?

full contact football for everyone!

Allow me to clarify: because this virus has gotten so out of control from people not taking responsibility, we can't go back to sports viewing like normal. We're too far past simply having 20-30k in Apogee with masks at this point, the only solution will be a vaccine. At best we'll be back to sports with about 10-25% capacity, but things will probably only get worse come fall.

ICU beds at 74% in Dallas

I don't have the energy to parse through all the nonsense so I'll just pull this out and keep it really simple: you won't see me, nor likely anyone else probably at Apogee this year because you won't be there either. Do you know why? Because it would be far too great of a risk to have thousands of people crowded into a stadium where they will be cheering, eating, and sharing a lot of water droplets that transmit this disease and allow it to spread like wildfire in the right conditions. That's why when you turn on the TV you see European Soccer, NASCAR, and horse racing being played in empty stadiums: because crowding people together for large events in a stadium is generally a bad idea. Why must they play in empty stadiums? Because people like yourself who might be asymptomatic or not showing symptoms yet, refuse to do something as simple as wear a mask and therefore the virus continues to spread.

When you totally understand the movie Network.

This is some really scary shit when people start posting stuff like this. A very avoidable contagious disease is sweeping through the country killing more boomers than the Vietnam War ever did, due to a lack of mitigation from said country's government, and you're just gonna accept it under the premise of people die of other stuff every day?

Yeah sure, dude totally deserved to end up in the hospital because he didn't like cops, and cops never lie to make themselves the innocent victims. Just like Seattle PD saying they got "explosive devises" thrown at them. Aka CANDLES. Or how about Austin PD tweeting about all the nice thank yous and well-wishes they've received in the mail, which were clearly fakes because all the handwriting is exactly the same? Why do you people fall for this obvious garbage you're being sold? You wanna proudly brag about how you can see right through crooked politicians, but think their police forces are unimpeachable in all of this? Come on man.

Yeah and the response with that satirical flag wasn't to you, so what are you going on about? Not gonna care one bit about there being "two sides of the story" when police already made their report that he "tripped and fell over" despite the video that shows that was absolutely not the case. Clearly they are lying to try and save their asses, and pretending we're all stupid by making up some back story about how he's some revolutionary. And why should I care what race the mayor is, or what he has to say defending his police department when we've seen mayors all across the country try to cover for their PD despite their obvious abuses: Garcetti in LA, Johnson in Dallas, Durkin in Seattle.

It's a completely appropriate satirical response to someone who finds what happened in Buffalo acceptable, and then accuses me of "hating all cops", yes.

LOL you actually believe that a frail 75 year old man is the graffiti king of Buffalo and defend cops blatantly shoving him down and putting him in the hospital. What do you gain by defending the cops in this situation, a gold star? Do you think the next time they mistake your house in a no-knock raid they're gonna see your posts and not shoot your dog? Pathetic dude.

You didn't prove anything by posting some dumb flash card with words on it that fit your agenda. Putting it in jpg form does not magically make an argument any more succinct or powerful, it just whittles down a nuanced issue into a black and white kindergarten level of conversation. You went to college, maybe act like you had to write a paper or two while you were there.
