I've been saying for a few weeks now that this is really exposing the arseholes.

I've lost a couple of my best friends (not in the US I should add) for basically suggesting this is a cull of elderly and disabled people who were waiting for death anyway. Utterly fucking disgusted. Nicely financially positioned people. One of them just bought their second home and hey, the value must have plummeted, shame...

When I pointed out he nursed his elderly father to his death through cancer last year he got very very fucked off.

Gone motherfucker. Masks are slipping.

Bernie Sanders: The Foundations of American Society Are Failing Us
April 19, 2020
The unequal impact of the pandemic and economic collapse are forcing us to rethink the assumptions of our system.

We are the richest country in the history of the world, but at a time of massive income and wealth inequality, that reality means little to half of our people who live paycheck to paycheck, the 40 million living in poverty, the 87 million who are uninsured or underinsured, and the half million who are homeless.

In the midst of the twin crises that we face — the coronavirus pandemic and the meltdown of our economy — it’s imperative that we re-examine some of the foundations of American society, understand why they are failing us, and fight for a fairer and more just nation.

That sort of thing is so much seen as political suicide, our PM has been hiding most of the time for less ...

Yes I keep getting them I thought it was me

Some work some don't and I don't know what the difference is. spring-peeper 's for example didn't. I'm assuming it's because of my ad-blocking and cookie-blocking software.
