So a 9 second, out of context, clip of Biden walking out of a restaurant over the weekend is somehow an indicator of...what exactly? Are people saying if he was wearing a mask in that 9 second clip from two days ago republicans from all across the country would suddenly get vaccinated?mace1229 said:

Nice pivot to governors like you did? How many R governors have you seen enforce rules upon their constituents but then don't live by those rules themselves? There have been many D governors that made rules for the people but then disregard those rules for themselves.HughFreakingDillon said:

Not yet but we do have D Governors claiming to be saviors. https://www.yahoo.com/now/inslee-only-person-saving-lives-200000912.html"There is only one person in the state of Washington who has the capability to save those lives right now, and it happens to be the governor of the state of Washington," Inslee said Wednesday.The video is in the link.

So you think Biden is not doing enough to stop the virus? What more do you think he should be doing that would make a difference? I think if you asked all of us in 2020 what more Trump could do, we'd have about 50 answers. So I'm curious where you think Biden needs more aggressive policies.
I don’t know what else Biden could do, I wouldn’t say he’s not doing enough. But if a mask is required indoors at a restaurant, it does appear he’s not following it this time.
The disingenuous nonsense needs to end. These out of context gotcha clips are all the rage on the right but they don't do anyone any good. They're just fodder to further their culture war bullshit.
Everyone knows what needs to be done to get out of this mess. The fact that 40% of republicans are flat out refusing to do it is the problem. They've been given plenty of proof the vaccines work yet they still refuse. These are also much of the same people who refuse to accept the fact that Donald Trump lost last year. I honestly don't know how it's possible talk any sense to people who clearly do no want to accept the reality of which they are living in.Post edited by The Juggler onwww.myspace.com0 -
Maybe someone can explain why a private school in Flo Rida, a repub lead state, is requiring a 30 day stay at home time out for those students who get vaccinated after each vaccine?

I just responded by saying I didn’t get that from his comment, he just said Biden wasn’t following the mask mandate for a restaurant. Which appears to be true. I also don’t think a 9 second clip is a big deal. I just don’t see what Biden not wearing a mask has to do with asking trump 50 questions and not acknowledging he wasn't wearing a mask. I think there could be lots of reasonable responses, maybe he got up and forgot to put it on. Happens to me a few times a week at work when leaving my room to use the restroom. Not the end of the world.

Yeah who gives a shit about a 9 second out of context clip is my point. The only reason things like that go viral with the people on the right is their argument is weak. They ignore the fact that the science says masking up works. They ignore the fact that vaccines work. Unfortunately we live in a dumbed down society where a nine second, out of context, clip is much easier for people to digest than the things that actually matter .mace1229 said:

Anyway.....I'd still like JB to answer the question of what Biden needs to be doing differently on this subject. I am not holding my breath for an answer though...www.myspace.com0 -

In my view, you can't compare year 1 to year 2 for a ton of reasons. You can compare the actions and seriousness shown by public officials. That's were I draw a distinction.benjs said:

The higher the mountains, the worse the situation. The very worst the pandemic ever was in the United States to-date, in terms of numbers of active cases, and deaths, was during the last two months of Trump's (shit)show.
Another thing - Trump had no vaccines and also no variants, Biden had vaccines - but the variants came around the same, bringing higher transmissibility and mortality rates, so it's a very incomplete comparison unless you have some concept of the relative influence of those two.0 -
I fully agree. I was just throwing two irrefutable reasons out there. An apple-to-apple comparison just isn't feasible.mrussel1 said:

they all turn into toddlers who say "but if he doesn't have to, why do I?". just baffling. I just saw pictures of an event at my local art gallery with several prominent people. SEVERAL of them were not masked, and it was indoors.The Juggler said:
Yeah who gives a shit about a 9 second out of context clip is my point. The only reason things like that go viral with the people on the right is their argument is weak. They ignore the fact that the science says masking up works. They ignore the fact that vaccines work. Unfortunately we live in a dumbed down society where a nine second, out of context, clip is much easier for people to digest than the things that actually matter .mace1229 said:
I’m not saying it’s an indicator of anything. JB posted a link and said Biden isn’t following the rules. mrussel said you (JB) think Biden isn’t doing enough?The Juggler said:
So a 9 second, out of context, clip of Biden walking out of a restaurant over the weekend is somehow an indicator of...what exactly? Are people saying if he was wearing a mask in that 9 second clip from two days ago republicans from all across the country would suddenly get vaccinated?mace1229 said:
The criticism, and the reason JB shared the link, was an example of leaders not following their own rules.mrussel1 said:

So you think Biden is not doing enough to stop the virus? What more do you think he should be doing that would make a difference? I think if you asked all of us in 2020 what more Trump could do, we'd have about 50 answers. So I'm curious where you think Biden needs more aggressive policies.
I don’t know what else Biden could do, I wouldn’t say he’s not doing enough. But if a mask is required indoors at a restaurant, it does appear he’s not following it this time.
The disingenuous nonsense needs to end. These out of context gotcha clips are all the rage on the right but they don't do anyone any good. They're just fodder to further their culture war bullshit.
Everyone knows what needs to be done to get out of this mess. The fact that 40% of republicans are flat out refusing to do it is the problem. They've been given plenty of proof the vaccines work yet they still refuse. These are also much of the same people who refuse to accept the fact that Donald Trump lost last year. I honestly don't know how it's possible talk any sense to people who clearly do no want to accept the reality of which they are living in.
I just responded by saying I didn’t get that from his comment, he just said Biden wasn’t following the mask mandate for a restaurant. Which appears to be true. I also don’t think a 9 second clip is a big deal. I just don’t see what Biden not wearing a mask has to do with asking trump 50 questions and not acknowledging he wasn't wearing a mask. I think there could be lots of reasonable responses, maybe he got up and forgot to put it on. Happens to me a few times a week at work when leaving my room to use the restroom. Not the end of the world.
Anyway.....I'd still like JB to answer the question of what Biden needs to be doing differently on this subject. I am not holding my breath for an answer though...
am I going to whine about it and stomp my feet and say "then I'm not going to!". No, I'm going to be a fucking adult and do what's right, regardless of the occasional failings of some people in power.
as mace also pointed out, we all fuck up occasionally. sure, sometimes I forget to put my mask on to go from my cubicle to the printer. big deal. I remember most of the time.
If a democrat doesn't wear a seatbelt, are people going to stop wearing their seatbelts? jesus. this is just so fucking dumb.
they take these stupid gotchas as some verification of their beliefs that all this shit is fake. because, sure, making the masses wear masks to the mall is going to bring humanity to its knees where we're all enslaved by the big bad government. it's all a big ruse.By The Time They Figure Out What Went Wrong, We'll Be Sitting On A Beach, Earning Twenty Percent.0 -
