Lol sunnyside finally upset about protesters while silent the last year

I’ll go with, “these weren’t actually protesters but outside influencers, not actual protesters”

Also I was told this was Russian disinformation and not actual news worthy by the media:

The Justice Department’s subpoena to Hunter Biden sought information involving more than two dozen entities to examine some of his foreign business ties, including with Ukrainian gas company Burisma.

Are you asking why Bill Barr's heavily politicized Justice Dept. is looking to investigate every business Hunter Biden is involved in?

Is this a serious question?

It’s really the worst

They do, much like many massive community websites, Reddit has its' fair share of problems with unsavory communities using the platform.

What Chico won't tell you about are some of the small benefits Reddit offers.

A lot of news companies will source their news from Reddit, and you can even find newsworthy bits on there that won't receive mainstream coverage.

I also find Reddit to be a valuable resource for specific interests I have, as they have a very knowledgeable user base in many different subjects. Examples for me include sports, video games, photography, automotive/mechanical discussion, etc. They can be very helpful when you have a question but you don't know any experts on the subject.

And of course, if you like porn Reddit has a large community built around that too, I'm pretty sure that's how they started IIRC.

Also what's funny about Chico's post that I quoted, we both agree Reddit can be a source of bullshit, conspiracy theories, etc. but I guarantee you he's referring to the left, and I'm referring to the right. For years Reddit admins didn't do anything when radical conservatives were doxxing liberal users and using massive upvoting/downvoting to push their content to the front page, it was only when their radical communities started receiving media attention that they shut down subreddits like The_Donald/etc.

I go to reddit for the videos.

I like videos.

Reddit is great when you know what to avoid there.

Fact check: A coronavirus vaccine could come this year, President Trump says. Experts say he needs a "miracle" to be right.

Fact check: Trump needs 'miracle' to be right about rosy vaccine timeline, experts say
“There’s a lot of things that could go wrong,” one expert said.


Here is NBC News fact checkers doing their typical garbage fake news

Think I might spend the day flooding the thread with the media lies about Trump not being able to deliver the vaccine this year.

The media lies for political purposes while actively routing for high death counts

[BaltimoreSkins]

What is fake about it?

[sdskinsfan2001]

Everything is fake. Lol. Trust absolutely no one or nothing.

The sky is not blue!!

“There’s a lot of things that could go wrong,” one expert said.

“I think it’s possible you could see a vaccine in people’s arms next year — by the middle or end of next year. But this is unprecedented, so it’s hard to predict,” said Dr. Paul Offit, a professor at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and the director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

-------

Seems scientists were talking about when regular people like us getting the vaccine in 12-18 months from may 2020 (when trump made his comments). trump was talking about the date a vaccine may be developed.

All I know is .. if me and my family get the vaccine by May 2021, ill be happy. Im guessing (I have no clue) I wont get the vaccine until August 2021 or who knows when.

The US gets 100M Pfizer doses = 50 million americans (2 doses per person)

-----------------

Funny ... trying to take a victory lap around this little island of a Trump prediction but ignoring ALL the other Trump predictions re Covid.

I guess political victories are hard to come by for Trump when it comes to Covid.

[MTK]

Trump has said so many stupid things about the virus it's not even worth going over again

Would any President in the same spot not have green lighted a fast track vaccine? It was a no brainer if there ever was one

I know it’s painful for you SS that we did it. Delivered before the years end.

Go ahead and get back to guessing. Also, when we look at the data of most restrictive policies set by states and not by federal government (like it should be, again the right policy) take a look New Jersey and tell me what u see. Tell me how the polices of New York and other states who ordered covid patients into nursing homes...how did that go?

Right, like when Obama had the intel to kill Bin Laden, he turned to Biden to ask his opinion, in which Joe responded “I wouldn’t go”

To assume this strategy is foolish beyond imagine. Especially with a fool who would say shutting down travel to China was racist and then shutting down travel to Europe was unfair to our friends.

Psshhh yeah...def not automatic.

The administration delivered beyond expectations

Almost 300k dead.... highest death rate per 100k in the world.... delivered beyond expectations.

And you wonder why people don't take you seriously lol.

The only thing Trump had to do was come out last January and say "listen, we have the best experts and we are going to rely on their advice. Our experts say wear a mask in public and social distance when possible, maybe cut back on unnecessary public events and hopefully we'll be through this quickly as possible since I am prioritizing any help the fed can offer to get a vaccine developed safely and quickly."

Boom, he would be praised. Legit praised. Even dems wouldn't have anything to complain about since he would've deferred to the experts, and he could take all the credit since he led a unified response.

Instead he called it a hoax, didn't take it seriously for 2 months, then kept trying to focus the blame on China (which does exactly fuck-all to stop the virus), ignored it for months and months on end while the death toll outpaced every civilized country in the world, but you still want his nut in your mouth because the only smart thing he did was say a vaccine needs to be rushed so he can look good for the election.

Chico you're never gonna have anyone's respect in this forum if you can't ever find the balls to split with Trump on anything. Why don't you just go join the Proud Boys so you can fall in line with all the other soldiers willing to die for Trump. You keep putting Trump on a pedestal, and for what? He would sell your support in 10 seconds if it put another nickel in his coffers.
