Oops
Looks like you censored yourself right in the foot, which seems basically par for the course these days
By the way, I'm 100% in favor of Democrats running ads claiming the COVID-19 response is a disaster, just like I'm 100% in favor of Republicans running ads claiming the COVID-19 response is a success

But as they say: play stupid games, win stupid prizes

I don't know if chloroquine will turn out to be part of an empirically validated protocol for COVID-19, but I do know that it's irresponsible to write headlines implying people are dying from the medication when they actually ODed on a product for treating fish tanks
People need to not be drinking fish water conditioners and they also need to not be afraid to take chloroquine if a doctor prescribes it. Can we please, please be a little more reflective about this stuff?
I am genuinely floored at how many outlets thought this was OK

Here's what I'm now doing wrt COVID-19. This isn't advice.

- postponing air travel

- avoiding most gatherings

- wearing latex gloves in public to remind myself to not touch my face

- handwashing upon returning home

- wiping phone/laptop/handles/knobs w/ alcohol 1-3x daily
I'm also gradually accumulating a water/nonperishable food/household goods supply, aiming for 2 months, and I have a few places to go if SF becomes a place I don't want to be for a while. I don't want to be part of a run on the grocery stores, but there's no downside to this prep
I certainly don't expect everyone to do what I'm doing

but consider that if you make fun of people who are trying to not get sick or infect others for Internet Points, you might just be sort of an awful person

I've noticed that many of the most persistent childhood traumas related to being made to feel unwanted, a burden, the "bad" one. I think they may persist as "chronic mental illness" because being sick doesn't heal the wound of being a burden — being *the healer* does
I sincerely believe that many western communities are now suffering not for lack of services to be received by hurting people, but for lack of services to be *provided* by hurting people
Counterintuitive as it is, next time someone around you is struggling with living in their own head, don't ask how you can help; ask them to help you. If they don't, or they flake, just keep asking for small things. Don't pressure or punish for lack of follow-through, just ask

I know this sounds crazy but here it goes. One of the most insane chess moves ever by China. They release #COVIDー19 into their population during trade war and Hong Kong protests. They have never been scared to sacrifice for their greater goals, this explains their prompt actions
2. China has experienced many pandemic like scares in past and never reacted this strong and decisively. They basically but a billion people in house arrest by the time the disease had killed about 200 people. Means they knew exactly how serious it was and how to stop it
3. At the time it starts we are in trade war with China and on verge of hot war with Iran. Guess which two countries get hurt worst right away? China and Iran... seems pretty convenient for us no? I’m sure a lot of countries are seeing it that way at the moment

#Democrats are trying to weaponize #COVID19 against Trump. Good-hearted (and otherwise smart) supporters are trying to downplay the significance of #coronavirus in order to shield the President and counter the #Democrat attack.

Both are equally dangerous, and wrong.

Here's why:
The Democrats are weak. Under ordinary circumstances there is no way in hell they could ever even dent, let alone, beat, @realDonaldTrump. They know this, and have known it for some time. That's why every untied shoelace is used as an attacking point to try to gain some leverage.
THIS IS NO UNTIED SHOELACE. This is potentially the biggest challenge any American president has faced since at least World War II, and in my estimation it's much less of a winnable political fight than a war in which he can win just by rallying the troops properly.

No, this is

- As per contacts, many stay indoors if they can

The BAD:
- Explosion of cases in new cities
- Tehran seems to be next
- Extreme shortage of basic hygiene supplies
- Street collapses continue

So Trump just wrapped up his briefing. And to be honest I’m more confused now than before. @realDonaldTrump is China burning bodies so bad that it’s showing up on satellite imaging? I love our President. I support our President. But sometimes we need straight answers on...
... serious questions and concerns. And shame on the media who was there asking questions about the stock market and the GDP growth. People have SERIOUS concerns with this virus. If it’s bullshit like some think, we need to know. If it’s real and we need to prepare for a real...
... epidemic then we need to know that too. It’s clear that right now our Country is relatively unscathed by this virus. Let’s keep it that way. Close the borders if it’s necessary. Restrict travel to ANY country that’s infected. These are serious steps that American people...

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.
