Feel free to quote me in a few weeks if that starts becoming the norm, but I seriously doubt that happens.

If you feel hatred in this situation, then you generally have a problem with yourself. I don't want to drift too much into the psychological aspect, but hate, with very few exceptions, always has its source in yourself.

i was not talking about myself tho...that's why i asked to you people, it was a general question.
and remaining without a job\house is not exactly a small reason to get mad, even if you are happy with your current life.

Russia are not our enemies here, not matter what they CCP controlled establishment players say. They are the smoke screen.

They would be a fantastic ally, especially with monsters like the CCP.

The US has been proxy warring Russia through Iran while Russia and China have been working with Iran together. The US also has a bunch of sanctions against Russia, China has none. What makes you think Russia will side with the US?

Don't forget ramping up production to supply 7 billion people with the vaccine. Not a trivial task.

That was one of the 3 points raised by BIll Gates, that vaccine production facilities could be built in advance and even though different vaccines in works require different facilities, that is still one hell of a smart investment, given the impact of the virus.

or we might be there already because China lies

China likely lies about victims (just instinctively reducing the figures), but lying about stopping the virus would be too much.

+77k is actually good news, as it is around 10% of active cases, which means doubling every 10 days, which is pretty damn good, vs doubling every 3 days that we had before.

This is not the politics forum fam. Move it along.
 
Unfortunately there'll be an even bigger explosion on the number of deaths. Most African countries are already affected, Ecuador has people abandoning bodies on the streets already, and then there is this:

10% growth is more like every 7 days but sure

Orthodox Jews aren't happy with Israel's social distancing measures:

I am Jewish myself and I will say that these chassids are living in their own world and becoming a danger to the community at large. They will only listen to their Rabbi, who only follows the Torah.

Now not all orthodox are like this and many are following the rules, but there are still those that think relegion puts them above the virus, even while the outbreak is ravaging through their community. I think 1 in 7 infections in Israel came from one orthodox community.

And with passover coming up in about a week I fear its going to get worse not better.

I'm always interested in seeing a modern jew opinion on the orthodox community. I'm currently watching a series called Unorthodox and I watched the whole of Shtisel as well. They live in a whole different world indeed and remind me of Amish people.

Isn't that kind of the case in NYC as well?
Click to expand...

I don't know the numbers but I know that there are large outbreaks in the orthodox communites in NYC and the surrounding area's. No numbers but I would think that the bigger hotspots are the area's with these communities. Their lifestye is like Italy x10. Lots of old people, large famalies, usually in small spaces. Its not uncommon for families of 6-12. And most of life revolves around large groups of people in small closed places. Perfect conditions for the virus.

Yeah, I just thought it was funny that we reached a point were Israeli authorities trying to stop the spread of a virus are being called "Nazis" and sneezed and coughed on.

So far he has been pretty on the money about everything that happened.
But these kinds of estimates depend so much on future development and make so many assumptions. It's easy to be wrong there.

I absolutely understand why, it's because of the constitution, but it is ultimately an excuse.
Firstly, this is entirely about interpretation of said constitution.
For example article 9 states "In order to accomplish the aim of the preceding paragraph, land, sea, and air forces, as well as other war potential, will never be maintained."
We all know Japan has a "military", they have tanks, aircraft, etc even though the constitution forbids it. It just depends on how you interpret this. They even re-interpreted this a few years ago, to give the military more power. There are numerous parts in the constitution talking about protecting the public welfare, or lives, etc you could interpret things in certain ways to restrict movement.

Secondly, they could just, you know, amend the constitution. It is one thing to get support for amending article 9, it should be easier to get support to make a state of emergency clause or something.

Well, with the SDF, you have the GHQ to blame for ordering Japan to form a defense and peace keeping-oriented armed forces during the occupation (although I'm not saying Japan never would have set up a self-defense force/army had it not happened otherwise).

Anyway, I certainly wouldn't want the government to just willy nilly reinterpret things on a whim to give themselves new powers. They can pass new laws if they want to, but that is hard without support of the citizens and I don't think that exists currently.
 
Here is a look at the "uncounted deaths"



I don't know/think that ALL of the excess deaths are COVID-19 related, but I have to imagine a large portion of them are.

This is disgraceful.

When you hear this kind of nonsense you can't help but start to understand why so many people were (and unfortunately still are in some places) running around ignorantly saying "it's just the flu". There's really no excuse for this crap in this day and age.

If you can read or listen this information has been available for MONTHS now.

Disgusting.
