13-year old Oklahoma boy dies of COVID complications

Posted on      by     

This story is all over OK news today. Here is the boy in question:

Obesity, along with diabetes and chronic heart conditions, is THE primary risk factor for COVID complications. Why do this to your kid? Why allow them to get to this physical state? And why make parents think that a cloth mask will provide any kind of protection at all? Shame on this boy’s guardians for allowing him to go so off the rails with eating habits that he died of complications from an infection that is less dangerous to children than seasonal flu or RSV.

To be clear: I do not condone fighting cops, or violence at all. This violence will solve nothing, as is usually the case. Behaving like an animal won’t bring your country freedom. Did any of these people now fighting in the streets ever at any point over the past decade stop to think about what their government was capable of, and what kind of power it had been given? They ignored it. Every red flag leading up to vaccine passports was ignored by them until it was too late. They may have even scoffed at those who warned that their government had accumulated far too much power. And now suddenly those voices of reason who warned that this would happen have now been swept aside. And suddenly everyone wants to march in the streets and fight. When has it ever achieved anything? To think and reason is hard, which is why most refuse to do it. Argument and persuasion is very hard, which is why almost no one does it. Behaving like an animal is easy, which is why so many do it when given the opportunity.

Kabul makes clear that our government does not care

Look at the way our gov’t has handled the Afghan exit. It’s like someone dumping their garbage in the middle of the street, or a drunk driver leaving the scene of an accident. They don’t care. This indifference is institutional. The State Dept., the Presidency, even Congress, does not care about the violence and chaos that has erupted. They don’t care about the thousands of Americans left in Afghanistan and who will now be used as hostages to negotiate the release of Taliban held at Guantanamo. Afghanistan served as a make-work project for weapons manufacturers, and for generals to receive medals. There was no noble goal behind it all.

I wonder what Trump would’ve done. As much as I hate to say it, we know what he would’ve done. The Tomahawks would’ve flown, the reapers would’ve rained death. The soldiers of fortune would have been given their gold and their license to kill. Trump would have ordered attacks at random on approaching Taliban. After a few of these attacks, the Taliban would have slowed to a crawl. It is not a pleasant thing to think about. But Trump would’ve provided the deterrent effect that is nowhere to be seen right now.

Masks don’t work because COVID is spread through aerosols

If someone inhaled cigarette smoke, put on a mask, and then exhaled, would the smoke get past the mask? And if it did, would you be able to smell it if you also had a mask? How many days will those smoke particles linger in the air, long after the smoker is gone? Rhetorical. Masks and social distancing are pseudoscientific garbage.
