Who is going to enforce the lockdown if we defund the police?

The pro police brigade needs an education on what defund the police means. Meanwhile lets let them keep killing people and circling the wagons when they are caught.

I think a second one is just politically intractable. We had our chance, the feds and state govts largely blew it.

K-12 Schools also aren’t going back neither are CSU’s.

You think school is more important than Church? Better check your priorities.

COVID is a joke btw. Alarmists are tickled pink.

Did you guys not read the post here of the guy who caught it?

I am convinced most people around the world in all their variety have flawed attitudes about the current viral epidemic, that is, that our attitudes have an incompletion and insufficiency.

I hope to prove and show that the people should not be complacent and this should be a time not merely to don an added cloak, an added badge of accommodation (the similitude I am trying to express of the insufficient attitudes) while remaining as they were before, remaining unchanged. Rather, I hope people of all varieties can be moved to think and feel deeply in heart and mind and emotions. Effort should be made, whilst being patient, restrained and fair, to understand the current events and contexts in crucial and paramount terms.

A discussion of current events in terms of Monotheistic theology, nontheistic Eastern religion, and the superficially non-monotheistic traditions of the West, should not be dismissed. They may all contain aspects of understanding which should be utilized.

The virus and its discussion should not be merely conflated with and devolve into the same flawed old modes, for example, of 1. hyperpartisanship (which these past years, evidence would support, being largely devoid of substance) or of 2. political correctness and middle class bourgeois modes (which, historical evidence would show, has also exhibited problematic characteristics, over the last one hundred and fifty years in, at a minimum, the Western World).

A lot of the "scientific" and "epidemiological" knee jerk reactions to any suggestion of politics and religion, are in fact, themselves reactionary defensive behavior (not entirely unjustified, when those suggestions are themselves unthinking, foregone and rote) and insubstantial.

The virus indeed should make mankind and the many nations reflect upon their moral,

social, ecological, environmental, technological organization and manners. Patience, restraint and fairness is needed because, for the most part, people at wide are, functionally, always operating under limits of some kind. Life is like this and we have to take inspiration from the Polynesians and their navigation, that is, to navigate under imperfect circumstances, to seek after knowledge and solutions even when we are operating under uncertainty and in the unknown.

If the virus is man-made and part of international politics, it has occurred in the arena of the always present arms race and strategic dynamics of the many nations who possess many armaments. Thus, the age old question of War returns, and with it, all the other questions, of ideology, morals, human nature, societal structure, disease and epidemiology, etc.

If the virus is from nature, we have to understand that man is an active variable in the outcomes of the environment. To the extent that mankind is both an active variable and not an active variable, these both are relevant. They both should be relevant and urge us on to greater contemplation of nature alone and man and civilization within nature.

If the virus is of divine origin, we still have to contemplate all these aforementioned questions as variables within our theological calculations and reflections. The monotheistic religions feature strongly the variable of mankind's free will and how mankind uses their reflective capacities and their capacities, i.e. all the aforementioned matters, in the world.

Socrates (or Plato, depending on what your interpretation of authorship is) said, in Plato's Republic, that philosophy should be practiced by the best of the best. It had/has gotten a bad reputation precisely because chumps practice it and that society/societies don't take it seriously and give it enough support and endorsement.

For all the times philosophy has been discredited, say, through some of Aristotle's

erraneous scientific theories, the older Greek philosophers got many of those aspects correct (as did philosophers of other nations!), and, in hindsight, all the so-called hard sciences and some of the auxiliary sciences have themselves, in fact, made grievous errors in their histories, with some of the most harrowing being of very recent times.

Mankind should make progress in understanding the intertwined relationship between

the races and the languages and the nations and the architectural geometric nature

of their composition and inter-composition. This expresses my meaning, when the Inspired

Word came to them, "Let no nation on earth think it above the others."

The technology, forums, affluence, freedom and amity among people, enjoyed in this era, is a great blessing and opportunity. We should not let the opportunity pass to facilitate sincere dialogue among interdependents and equals. This communication and debate is important to our civilizations and its fruits and activities must transcend petty agendas.

Belarus is missing such a great opportunity to pump up their economy.

They should welcome businesses and promote investment in the country right now. Businesses would flock.

They are in such a competitive advantage right now, it’s not even funny.

I will concede that seriousness of the actual virus has been a bit overblown, but it's affects (on economy, education, society etc) are not. And for the umpteenth time we can't just "MURICA" our way through this. The flattening of the "curve" was to ensure that hospitals aren't overwhelmed. Unfortunately, hospitals are overwhelmed. What exactly do ya'll think is going to happen when kids are back in classes during flu season?

The thing that many "real" fox news consumers miss (I watch, but for the laughs), the ones who watch it to be informed, is that every single one of those entertainers are isolating themselves at home? If this isn't a big deal, why not just host their shows in studio as the did before the "alarmists" took over? What percentage of fox news employees will be sending their kids to school when they open up in a month?

Schools, if opened, will all be closed before October.

What is sad is not that some clown on a bit coin trading blog was wrong AF. What is sad is that the elected officials who are responsible for the health and welfare of their citizens ignored the science and went with the clowns on the bit coin trading blogs and are still not locking down.
