Biden wants to end gun-maker liability protections. That could sink the industry, advocates say.

Good. If ever there was an industry that deserved to be sunk like the Bismark, it’d be the murder-dependent gun industry.

You know, I grew up shooting guns. I was in the army, too. I’m a better shot and more competent with a gun than any of you reading this. And I just don’t think most people should be allowed to have guns. An armed society is not a polite society, and politesse at gunpoint isn’t real anyway.

Want a gun? Fine. Get a single-shot bolt action hunting rifle and keep it locked up in a third-party armory until you want to use it (just like we did in the army, btw!). Solved.

Need more gun than that? Permits out the wazoo and GPS tracking 24/7, and huge liability insurance required. Also solved.

Unhealth

When you go to a store and look around, so many Americans are obviously unhealthy (and not from Covid). Even non-elderly folks, half of them are shambling around like they just got trampled by bison. It’s become normalized but if you clear your brain for a second and think about it, this is just deeply odd. And disturbing.

Even in my lifetime it was not this way. It’s really gotten worse in the last few decades. When so many people are visibly unwell and debilitated, it’s no surprise that Covid’s mortality rate is so high. Many people have two feet and one arm in the grave already.

Nag Wag

Another tweet related to the below. But a liberal not scolding? Not gonna happen. It’s what many of them live for! I wonder how many of them have actually loved the pandemic because it gave them so many opportunities for finger-wagging, preaching, and pointless nagging?

Bad Message

Yep. Huge, huge fucking mistake here. The fourth wave is more a bit of rise than a wave (in the US), and the vaccine is working. Mortality has dropped enormously, especially in the age groups most vaccinated, and we’re effectively fighting the virus.

This should be what’s emphasized. Instead, we’re discouraging vaccine uptake by making it appear pointless to get. How do we fail at this repeatedly? Never seem to get any better.

Someone should study why so many liberals are so interested in admonishing everyone about what they can’t do after they’re vaccinated.

It’s particularly interesting in light of the fact that what they believe people “can’t” do almost always contravenes CDC guidelines and has no valid scientific basis.

No Myst

Seasonality + vaccination + those who’ve already had Covid. No mystery there.

Sensing It

“Sensitivity readers” are mostly intended to placate white liberals bent on forming rage-mobs, all so they won’t get offended on behalf of a culture or people that don’t know and don’t care about the work in question, so other white liberals who engage with said work will feel like justice has been done somehow.

Quite the circular scam, for the most part.
