RE: Mystery seeds...

Perhaps it is about
Sowing the 'seeds' of doubt
Suspicion will grow if you water it
And suspicion is rife in the states
Cast them out wide, there's no hidin'
If it's not Trump it is Biden!

RE: Lies about the virus spread by conservatives end up killing people. Stop it !

car not care, guess not gues. There is some type-ahead algorithm producing care, but why didn't it correct gues?

RE: Lies about the virus spread by conservatives end up killing people. Stop it !

The mask has been established as about 60% effective, meaning a 60% risk mitigation, and quite worthwhile if you think about it. Less effective than a seatbelt in a care sure. A vaccine is not very likely to exceed 60% efficacy but is much more anticipated and awaited, so think about that too.

I wonder what the correlation is between anti-vaccer and anti-masker, and if high, as I gues, why is it so?

RE: Under Trump the national debt has increased from $19.9 Trillion to $26.5 Trillion

@lookn isn't it amazing where people get their 'facts'!!!

RE: Under Trump the national debt has increased from $19.9 Trillion to $26.5 Trillion

ah - I see the Obama 2011 Budget bill was rejected by the senate 0-97, not even a single Democrat vote in favour. That's something I was quite unaware of.

RE: Under Trump the national debt has increased from $19.9 Trillion to $26.5 Trillion

I refer to my blog about Modern Monetary Policy, which claims a government having Monetary Sovereignty can print as much as they like. I recall that the Republicans during the Obama era with-held or threatened to with-hold funding on two occasions thus freezing the government. A similar act by the then Australian Conservative opposition in 1975 led to the dismissal of the Whitlam government. Trump too and Clinton experienced major shutdowns.

Zhuhai is lovely too - I've made the ferry trip from Shenzhen to Zhuhai a few times, but never continued to Macau/Aomen

RE: You Might Be A Trump Supporter,

@micl pith? pithy? all pith and wind, but don't get hithy-pithy with me, I'm just an aging retired fascist volunteer ESL teacher

RE: Mental state on dating profiles

That surely would be just another Catch-22 - why didn't Yossarian try the 'intellectually unfit for duty' or 'incompetent' pleas? If you know you're a complete idiot it proves you are not. Could we say the same for a certain influential American figure, I wonder?

RE: New Currency will soon be available

How about 5050 Trump!? Civilation could not survive till then, surely. Indeed 2020 Trump is contributing mightlily in a shift to the brink already. Imagine a result like Gore/Bush, and in Florida, but the reverse way.

If only Gore!

RE: More on Oz...does it ever end?...

then in close to half a century, during ths millenium certainly, you show evidence of learning nought. Let me tell you, since you proclaim your education above others, that I despise you most of all.

RE: Some very good news on the Covid-19 vaccine front

@JN which today might that be? I think the year will not be 2020. And no one puts a number on effectiveness, do they. Pessimists and optimists alike, I suspect around 50-50... just thinking aloud.

Oh I see further tabs,...

RE: Uighurs bound, and blindfolded, about to be loaded on to trains in China

that article has two photos and few facts

RE: Oz and the people of the Dream Time....detention, and so much more....

What is it you want to criticise or boast of?

Indigenous people incarcerated in Australia. Shameful.

Incarcerated indigenous in USA? Hispanics in USA. Black people in USA? Guns? Murders? Ghettoes? Equality. Gini Coefficient? Where does USA stand compared to China?

RE: I think women are foolish to pretend they are equal to men

William Golding came from an era in which it was worthwhile saying, the scoffers were many. Now in the era when women are better educated than the men the scoffers are fewer but louder.

On a remotely related issue, an event to celebrate is that Sudan has outlawed FGM.

RE: Uighurs bound, and blindfolded, about to be loaded on to trains in China

Do you guys ever check your sources, look for validation, fact check? Is the finger of falun gong, falun dafa to be seen there, what do you think?

RE: White, and Trump leaning Minorities, flight from....

so you want me likewise, out of sympathy, poor gnomish benighted soul, to bump your zeroes to one? Needless to say, this one I did not even briefly peruse

RE: The US Feds begin, AGAIN, FINALLY, ....

Could not verify, could not validate, purports to show, is claimed to be in China, no indication of where or when.

However China does execute more people than the rest of the world combined, but the number is unknown. Where does USA stand I wonder? Iran is way up there. Saudi. Egypt.

RE: The US Feds begin, AGAIN, FINALLY, ....

Coincidentally I was thinking about and reading about the Rosenbergs recently. I imagine they'd like to do that to Julian Assange too, perhaps?

RE: Final stage of Moderna Covid-19 Vaccine will start in July and Brit final stage starts this month.

String-im-up-man what idiots would follow and watch a youtube of that kind, do you think? Only you!

RE: Final stage of Moderna Covid-19 Vaccine will start in July and Brit final stage starts this month.

What percent efficacy is being claimed pre final trials? Have any numbers been published, or 'guesstimates'? Suppose it pops up at 40% effective, what would you pay for the shares? What number constitutes 'success'?

RE: "The Most Beautiful Place I've Been"

Thanks for that Melody, I've never been to South America yet, and it's likely I never will.

Along these lines though, let me mention a place I have been, that is in my memory very lovely indeed.

Jiuzhaigou (Nine fortified Village valley) in Sichuan China. I went there at the end of autumn 2007, the year before the earthquakes. Snow was heavy and the red and yellow of autumn had disappeared, but not the colour of the river lakes and waterfalls.

RE: What would you buy that is made in China?

OPPO or HUAWEI or XIAOMI smartphone - great quality, great value

RE: Right wing Oz PM and legislature greatly up war spending....

@mic what are you trying to say? This was already budgetted, it is no change, it is not an increase? What do you tink it means? As I said, I have already commented on the rhetoric.

RE: Tibet, South China Sea, India, Vietnam and now Hong Kong---with Taiwan next in the glory line up....

Ah, I have hitherto missed Oaf and Ogre, let me add them to the quiver. I just watched the Gligoric Smyslov game won by black in 18 moves ... A strange game denuding the queen side and white never castles. I like the 'indians' as black. The English as white.
