It's time to pay the piper.

Image result for trump images virusRemember  when a lot of you thought that it was funny (and deliciously disruptive) when Donald trump beat a despised Hillary Clinton to become the president of these divided states of America? 
I bet you don't think it's funny now.

Yes America,  the check has come due, the fun and games are over. Literally. 

I suppose that our only saving grace is that this national disaster is not the result of another country's actions against us, but rather our own incompetence and lack of leadership from our leaders.

What's particularly sad about our present government is that they are actually lying to us about important things such as the availability of tests, and how serious this virus is to our health and well being. If you listen to the president you would think that this virus is no worse than the common seasonal flu, and all the hand wringing is much ado about nothing. 

It's sad, really, because most of his followers still believe him. His propaganda network is blaming everyone and everything but their dear leader. This type of sycophantic behavior  is what got us to this point in the first place, and from now on it will only get worse.

    “I suppose that our only saving grace is that this national disaster is not the result of another country's actions against us, but rather our own incompetence and lack of leadership from our leaders.”

    Says you. Within weeks, maybe days, Trump will be blaming China for screwing us over. Maybe he’ll even claim China invented the virus as a bioweapon. Mark my words. Trump’s sycophants (like Tom Cotton) are already signaling where he’s gonna go.

    And this is in addition to pointing the finger at Obama. It’ll definitely somehow be Obama’s fault, too, that Trump fired a bunch of the public health experts we need in a public health crisis.

    Blame-shifting and conspiracy theories. Those are standard operating procedure for Trump.

  2. To some extent this is indeed Trump’s fault - the disbanding of the pandemic response team, the cutbacks to the CDC, the botched rollout of testing, his idiotic positive thinking, his lack of leadership, and so on - but the main problem with this or any pandemic is that it reveals that we humans have limited control of our destiny. Right now a virus is calling the shots. This awful truth humbles the wise and humiliates the proud. Trump is not in the first group.

    Many Italians in Northern Italy sold their leather goods and textiles companies to China. Italy then allowed 100,000 Chinese from Wuhan/Wenzhou to move to Italy to work in these factories, with direct Wuhan flights. Result: Northern Italy is Europe’s hotspot for Wuhan Coronavirus.

    I doubt anyone is upset by this. But then again, few people around the would even realize that Lyme is even a place name. Residents of Connecticut might feel differently if it were called “Connecticut disease.”

    The WHO deliberately gave the virus a name, COVID-19, that follows disease-naming guidelines intended to avoid stigmatizing regions and countries.

    Trump and people around him are refusing to use this name intentionally. Because they want to stigmatize China, because this is a blame-shifting exercise.

  17. Perhaps instead of flinging stupid insults at China, it might be more useful to look at what they've done to contain the virus that has worked.

    That mostly includes identifying the ways the virus spread the fastest to the most people, and doing something about it.

    The virus doesn't care about your ideology or nationality or any of that stupid bullshit. It turns out that in China, the way it was spreading the fastest was through the families of people who became infected and brought it home.

    What China did was reactivate the facilities they built as "fever clinics" to deal with MERS and SARS, which they had mothballed after those epidemics subsided.

    Then they put the whole population on lockdown, which wasn't the main approach, but facilitated it.

    Then they started stopping everyone who went anywhere and taking their temperature. People with elevated temperatures were taken immediately to one of the huge fever clinics and tested for anything that could cause the fever besides coronavirus, and given CT scans of their lower lungs looking for the telltale signs of the disease.

    Only then were they given the nasal swab and made to wait four hours for the results, in facilities where they could keep distance between themselves and the other patients and the staff was in full protective gear.

    No-one who tested positive or was symptomatic was allowed to go home until after quarantine.

    That's what an effective response looks like. That's what the only response that has been effective at all looks like.

    Now how likely do you think it is that something of that seriousness would ever be even suggested here in the land of the free?

    Which is why it is so monstrous that the only tools we had in our toolbox to even try to deal with a pandemic were thrown away by Fergus in a fit of spite and ideological idiocy.

    The wheels have been coming off of the Fergus administration for a while now, but this fuck up is one for the history books.

    The Obama era-CDC became a place for affirmative-action sincecures. Bogged down by red-tape and nonsense polices, effective response to a crisis became impossible. They rejected science in favor of leftist delusions, as evidenced by their being more concerned with creating stigmas than saving lives.

    Trump has cleared out the deadwood and has built a CDC that places science first most and foremost. His quick actions in January were met with predictable cries of "racist!" and attempts to sabotage the response to a crisis by Democrats, but he carried on and did what he had to protect the American people.

    Instead they acted like they always do, and tried to seize the moment for short-term gain. In a few weeks when things return to normal, their craven opportunism will be laid bare and Trump will have crushed them again.

  59. World War C Rant:

    **************

    Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to World War C.

    In this corner; the human race, the brightest beings on Earth. In that corner: Covid-19, a nanoscopic cell-rapist.

    It has no heart, it has no guts, and it certainly has no brains, or it wouldn't have attacked us! It's lowlife so low that it's a stretch to call it alive! I'd call it an asshole, but it doesn't have one! It doesn't do its own metabolism; it doesn't even do its own reproducing, even though that's all it ever does! It is nothing but an undead parasite!

    I grant that the vile thing is wily and adaptable, due to raw Darwinian evolution; so it does possess a collective intelligence, of sorts. Well, so do we, and our collective intelligence is much, much higher. We've just met it, and we've already published its entire genome on the Web! If Covid-19 had any brains at all, then it would find such exposure humiliating! It should have stuck with the bats!

    Covid-19 is obviously a newbie on this biosphere; it doesn't know us at all. Well, we humans are so good at teaching, we can even teach arithmetic to silicon. So we get to teach the little pests some manners. Lesson one:

    Thou.
    Shalt.
    Not.
    Kill.
    US.

    Take heart, fellow humans; help is on its way. Eighteen months until a vaccine; therefore honor our brilliant researchers! Also honor our courageous doctors and nurses, fighting on the frontlines! And above all, honor the infected! To the 80% who just throw it off; kudos! To the 15% seriously ill; get well soon! And to the 5% gravely ill; our desperate reverence!

    O those of us about to die, the rest of us salute you!

    This is war. Covid-19 will do its worst; let us do our best. So wash your hands for 20 seconds. Eat well, exercise, get a full night's sleep. Hold out until the vaccine. Some of us will fall; all of us will suffer. We will all experience suffering and loss and grief, but in the end, we will defeat this menace.

    Dear fellow humans; dear fellow thinkers, workers, and fighters; we will survive. That is 100% predictable, and here I am, 100% predicting it.

    May you live long, and may you prosper.

    Trump Caught Google Off Guard With a Bogus Site

    'President Trump announced Friday that the US government’s coronavirus testing apparatus, which has lagged badly behind other developed nations, would soon get an assist from Google. The search and advertising giant will create a website, Trump said, that would help Americans figure out if they need a test for the virus, and if so where they can find one,” Wired reports.

    “The only problem: There is no nationwide site like the one Trump described. And Google had no idea the president was going to mention one.”

    “A source at Google tells Wired that company leadership was surprised that Trump announced anything about the initiative at the press conference. What he did say was also almost entirely wrong.”

  72. Dr. David Ho, the researcher who figured out how to treat HIV by interfering with the virus' ability to replicate, has been funded to study the novel coronavirus by one of the richest men in China.

    That's a rare bright spot in this shit show, but even he has said that an available, effective drug is still months away, so we'll have to deal with the first wave of infections without any meaningful medical interventions.

    He also pointed out that the two areas his lab is focusing on to come up with a possible "hit" on this virus (protease and polymerase) have been thoroughly researched by HIV and Hepatitis C researchers, so they have an existing body of work to base their new research on.

    So, say, those scientists at the USDA that Fergus ran out of the government, they could have been fast tracking those areas of study for a couple of months now, which kinda seems like a good thing to have been doing about a pandemic in which the case numbers are doubling every few days.

    Actually, maybe not a bad idea.

    Unfortunately, news media cannot be held accountable under law for lying in the general sense. This is a big part of why our politics are so toxified.

    But if you are a media outlet that deliberately tells lies to protect President Clownshoes, and then it can be proven that those lies helped lead to a number of deaths by infectious disease ... maybe there’s a case there.

    It’s not inconceivable that a class action lawsuit a year from now could drive Fox into bankruptcy.

    To be fair, being a repressive, brutal, authoritarian state may actually be an advantage in fighting an epidemic. You don't have to worry about civil liberties when you're enforcing quarantine. You don't have to worry about "entrepreneurs" spying a market opportunity to buy up all the hand sanitizer and flog it on Ebay at a repulsive markup. Those sleazebags would never dare it in China -- the po-po would snatch them up and throw them down a deep dark dungeon and they'd never be seen again.

    Also, the Chinese bureaucrats may be vicious fuckers, but they're competent vicious fuckers who want things to run smoothly. Trump is an incompetent screw-up. Nobody really has any confidence in him -- even his fans don't; they just voted for him out of spite toward the parts of America they hate -- which is a huge problem.

    The opposite seems to be happening. Conservatives, certain types, are being misled by conservative media and White House officials. Libs are more inclined to trust and listen to experts and take their recommendations. Contrast that with conservatives who thought the ronas were a Democrat hoax, the media is blowing this out of proportion, ect. From what I'm seeing is it is conservatives that are unprepared and using magical and wishful thinking. Take a look at Liberty U where the school president isn't cancelling in person classes because this is a ruse to embarrass trump. Nah man, but nice try at projection.

    "Democrats believe in science."

    Really?

    I would doubt you could find significant percentages of people anywhere who didn't believe in some science, especially where it validates their worldview. But everyone is human, and all humans are to some extent irrational beings.

    Evolution is a simple and understandable theory whose workings are easily observable and understandable by almost anyone. It is an elegant example of reason and logic supported by numerous scientific observations. Despite this, there are many people whose religious views reject belief in evolution. Two thirds of Evangelical Christians don't believe in evolution, and two thirds of Evangelicals are Republican, but these folks comprise less than a third of the party.

    However, the majority of Democrats ascribe to progressive dogma such as:

    1. Evolution has not resulted in any differences in human populations separated for ~70,000 years. Race is a "social construct".

    2. Human generated CO2 is the major driver of global warming and will destroy the planet within a few years.

    3. Gender is not a biological reality, men can menstruate and have babies, and it is acceptable to surgically and hormonally mutilate children.

    Democrats don't so much believe in science, but rather scientism. Scientism is not science; it is, rather, an abuse of the scientific method and scientific authority. Scientism is the belief that your irrational beliefs are superior to other irrational beliefs because your scientists say so, and this gives you full license to denigrate those with whom you disagree.

    Scientism seems to offer liberation from old moral constraints, but in fact only changes the source of those constraints from religion to the state. You look to science to provide a moral framework to support your world view rather than a structural framework for explaining reality. These new moral codes are politically constructed and not religiously based; they arise from vague and ever-changing definitions of human "values." Scientists, unlike all other humans, are creatures of pure reason whose pronouncements - as long as they conform to the prevailing dogma - cannot be questioned, lest one be labelled a "denier". Disagreements aren't just factually wrong, but morally wrong - heresies. You see scientists more as priests, whose word is revealed truth, whereas true science demands everything meet rigorous standards of proof and nothing is ever "settled".

    Advocates of scientism claim the sole mantle of rationality, frequently equating science with reason itself. In contrast to reason, a defining characteristic of superstition is the stubborn insistence that something — a fetish, an amulet, a pack of Tarot cards — has powers which no evidence supports. From this perspective, scientism has as much in common with superstition as it does with properly conducted scientific research. Scientism claims that science has already resolved questions that are inherently beyond its ability to answer. Thus, "science" becomes merely a means to a political end.
