Trumptards think masks don’t work.
Leftards think masks are a get out of yail card.
Both are wrong.
Data proves that masks work. But data also proves that they reduce the risk only to a certain - or rather uncertain - percentage. We will never know the exact percentage because data is based on a sample and thus blurred. Only if we could draw a sample as big as the population we would know the exact number.
There are no easy answers. Accept it.

(Fuck, I can’t believe I’m discussing this.)
What is unanswerable easily?

The national disgrace is how AMERICA has had so much more of it's population die than any other comparable country in the world, because masks are being questioned by Trumptards. Which is killing Trumptards, in some god level irony.
Some of who are vag beautificators, I guess.

There is no "Leftards think masks are a get out of yail card." The leftests who goto Yale(sic) still have to pay for it.

I cannot believe you tried to false equivalency/both sides masks you ignorant fuck.

It is utterly irrelevant whether wearing a mask reduces the spread of covid or not.

All that matters is that competitors were told in advance that they might be required to wear masks during immigration check-in.

I have no idea what the reason is behind the request for taking my shoes off at the Buddhist temple on the route to Everest Base Camp. It was a requirement and I took my shoes off. If I didnt want to take my shoes off, I would have waited outside. I would not flip over the little table at the entrance where the monk handed out prayer flags . I didnt debate whether taking my shoes off worked or did not work.

Thankfully the pudgy offensive little man who got 69'd from NBR is never going to make it that far. He would have run out of breath 10 days earlier.

Discuss what? There is no debate. There is no issue. There never was a debate over an actual issue.

There is just the dead sacrificed to Stupid, the God/Operating principal of the Trumptards.

In every other country in the world they did the basic, grade school shit they were supposed to and, as a consequence, a MUCH smaller proportion of their population died to this virus. A much smaller portion of their population will suffer whatever long term consequences having had the virus leads to. Dementia, Erectile dysfunction, whatever.

It is not even a fucking pontification. Not a single new thought or hot take. The well worn path is strewn with the fragments of shoe leather of our betters.

I have read this thread with interest from the beginning. It is undoubtedly true that the actions of the sailor involved deserved to be heard under a Rule 69 hearing, and no surprise he was found guilty. However, on this forum at least, he has refrained from profanity and aggression despite repeated provocation. That doesn’t excuse his actions on the day, but is something for some of you to reflect upon as you take a moral high ground whilst displaying infantile and bullying behaviour. Even IPLore, a former lawyer, has taken to throwing personal insults.

I see you are calling out behaviors you think are inappropriate.

But you did not call out the lies/false thinking that has killed more Americans, at times, over the last three years, than any other thing. And is easily preventable.

So you do not like the language used by some of the living, but do not mind the death the other wielders of language cause?

To me, one is obscene. The other calling out the obscene.

I think if you look around this thread and a few others, you'll see that a couple of newcomer trolls are doing the majority of the infantile poo-slinging and name-calling. Hint to trolls: If you aren't funny, you are just boring and annoying. They may need to go on ignore.

I love how the Sponge Bob version of Nazis can vomit literal human killing bile, and when the casual observer points out the potential problem with that, the Nazi apologists come tut-tuting at the observers.

Choosing team Stupid Human Killer, they out themselves.

It is disgusting and reveling.

I think this is a reasonable rebuttal to the very weak paper cited above by a Trumptard.

^^^Dude, your posts are becoming so offensive that we want to take up for the people you attack, regardless of their position on things. @LionessRacing is a real person with a boat. We all fought the Covid battle for years now (you can read all the threads), so we know where each other stands. That's why we keep our potshots on a relatively civilized level.
Maybe you could do the same. Refrain from calling people Nazis, don't use the f-word for a week, and basically put that flame-thrower away. Better yet, tell us about where and what you sail.
