2020-10-19 at 9:19 AM UTC in Kenya discovers that not giving a shit about Corona works just as well as anything else
"People have realised you don't die, so are not coming out if (they have) symptoms. They prefer to stay home until it's a severe case," says Jeremy Gitau, who coordinates the response team at Covid-19 at Kenyatta Hospital.

"(The) number of infections are high, but people requiring admission? No."
Kenya has recorded about 700 deaths from Covid-19, and only a small number of positive cases have evolved into a severe form of the disease.
The overwhelming majority of cases in Kenya – 93 percent, according to the health ministry in August – are asymptomatic.
The 50-million strong population is also young: just 2.4 percent of Kenyans are aged above 65, according to World Bank data from 2019.
The total number of tests has also plummeted from around 8,000 per day in July to around 3,000 today.
Joanne Hassan, a microbiologist from the state-run Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI), said they tested as few as 200 per day now compared to highs of 3000 in July-August.
…
"The country may never actually know that it is experiencing a second wave until 2-4 weeks into the second wave, by which time the infection would have extensively spread," Kalebi, of Lancet, said.
It's clear that Corona has evolved into a milder form to that seen earlier this year in Iran, Spain and Italy. It's also clear that Western governments have no intention of allowing access to the vaccines anytime soon. In this context caring about it anymore may simply be counterproductive. -

If you are determined to follow the herd you only need to concentrate on where the herd is. You don't waste time worrying about where the herd is going or who is leading. -

Originally posted by rabbitweed I've stopped talking to him. I feel better already.
Ever notice how little people Mexican, Techno, Obbe, stl1, etc talk to each other?
I think they actually despise each other, even though they all agree on everything.
OTOH it may simply be that they are incapable of two way dialogue. They can only be told what to believe in, and regurgitate that. Regurgitating to each other would be inefficient, when they can just put on the telly.
Either way, they don't seem to enjoy each other's company. -

2020-10-18 at 7:45 PM UTC in Stark political bias in google results
I took a few random words from a few random articles by a few random writers—some on the left and some on the right—and ran searches on a few different search engines. Then I counted to see what position the article came up in. These were the results.

"Researchers estimate that, in a country with high calorie diets such as the UK, walking for one kilometre would require food that would have generated around 0.26kg of carbon dioxide compared with 0.21kg of CO2 for the petrol used by a car."

Originally posted by stl1 I remember my father (2nd in State wrestling, ex Marine pilot, tough guy) taking me to a George McGovern rally back in 1971.
He hated Nixon with a passion.
He was right.
Why? What exactly did Nixon do? History records him quite favourably.
I already know you'll just answer with snark. -

2020-10-18 at 12:36 PM UTC in When the phrase 'pedophilia' becomes hate speech...
Originally posted by Meikai Alan Turing had a relationship with a 19 year old. Not underage. Not a scion of some noble family. Just some random twink. And even Turing, a national hero and one of the greatest and most valuable minds of an era, couldn't get away with that. This of course is just one, prominent example. It's not like he was some kind of exception to the rule.
Do you actually think anyone cares that he was banging some 19 year old? That there's no more to the story? -

You two do not set the tone for the forum. You two are our resident racist pigs that get proven wrong day in and day out. There is no argument for racism except hate.

Just strolled right in and did the business. Quite a chad.
My opinion is, and remains, if you are going to invite muslims into your country, treat them with respect, and insist that they treat you with respect likewise, so that when they leave you part as friends.
Don't invite them in and then try to train them to be just like you. Infect them with your mind-virus. -

No. It may be because google is censoring the n-word references or the CP threads, or google picked up the wordenhancements and automatically marked this place as spam, or it doesn't like The Mongolvoid, or something similar. Dunno what way Lanny has set up this place in Google search console. -
