Liberty Quote
- Life, with its rules, its obligations, and its freedoms, is like a sonnet: You're given the form, but you have to write the sonnet yourself.

I reckon a 90 year old could easily die just from the fact of having a vaccine at that age and the stress of the whole thing being told otherwise they will die horribly from COVID.
Let alone the vaccine properties could upset their system and that’s that.
At 90 there may be only a short time left. Surely they are better to be warm and nourished and be with family to the end of their days so not scared. It really could be weeks. Hassling a very old person with needles is cruel.

This is how bad covidian lunatics are now by the way.
With the full backing of the entire state, media and tech apparatus they’ll happily tell you the vaccines don’t work at all, but you’re still killing everyone by not getting one.
Because the vaccine, masks, masks on children, mass tracking, entire upside down forever cultural change itself, is the end. Covid statistics? CFR? Protect the old and vulnerable and let it rip so the rest of us can gain immunity and get on with life again as we always have since day zero, what?

Most 90 year olds – the five left, are prisoners in aged care homes being beaten and malnourished by the kids of african warlords while their boomer children drive around in 4wd’s and caravans on the proceeds of the reverse mortgage they took out on their house under power of attorney.

Unless the implication is that all those named are one person.
Which means that, if that person comprises one-third of the Gang of Four, then the gang’s membership must be three.

We hear plenty about the effects of the Fauci/Wuhan virus here ,in NZ theUK and USA ,but very little about our nearest large neighbour Indonesia . Our leftist media are obsessed with the corrupt Paedo biden gang of usurpers in Third World America and ignore our heavily populated nearest neighbours ,when have you heard one of our politicians express solidarity and sympathy for the carnage the Fauci/Wuhan virus is wreaking there . Do they actually teach our children in school where and what Indonesia is ?

I think we have seen from some previous scrubbed comments where AdamD’s boundaries might be.
I suggest it is used sparingly and only for the bat-shit crazy racist and anti-Semitic stuff, and doxxing threats we have seen here.
Otherwise AdamD’s inbox will be clogged with frivolous tit-for-tat rubbish and effective moderation will become even harder.

I’ve only ever dobbed once in my life. Third class, to the principal, when a big bully threatened my little brother with an after-school beating.
When the principal told said bully that if such a threat was ever made again, he’d contact the bully’s father. The blanched face told me all I needed to know. He was a generational bully, poor boy.
Didn’t name it that then though. But I knew his father must have beaten him. Poor boy.

If the report comment button is the plug-in I’ve previously mentioned, I’d suggest that there’s a threshold number of reports, above which, the comment will disappear (until reviewed)
I think it’s not a bad compromise. You can only report it once, and if enough cats think said comment is bad enough to report, it probably should disappear.
No colluding people! LL, check your email.
On a serious note, even if not reported enough to disappear, it will raise it to Adam’s attention in a timely manner.
I think we’ll get used to it, and it’s probably the lesser of two evils.

Biden stopped the majority of the oil projects and supports the Russian and Middle Eastern shitholes by getting them to increase their output while putting up prices in the US.
Under Trump, the US was a net oil exporter.
Under the O’Biden/Harris administration, it’s a net importer.

That’s a fair point, Calli, but unless they announce it by way of a comment, no one will know what others are doing, therefore no group think.

Using the button is very much like voting in Australia…completely anonymous, completely independent…and usually for a fuckwit.
