At some point you have to just believe what you can see around you. 99% of the USA has no overflowing hospitals and no piles of dead bodies laying around. It's time to go back to living your lives.

One thing that never fails to shock me is the casual disregard so many Americans seem to have for other people's lives combined with a fixation on their entitlement as an individual. That 1% is people's brothers and fathers and children and sisters and mothers.
Basic training... a similar concept to martial arts and ballroom dance, both of which I’ve done, you practice over and over and over so it’s more automatic... with Basic training it likely will save your life and others in real combat.

It sort of reminds me of basic training. Sleep deprivation, foods high in starches and sugars, yelling for no reason, strip clean floors and re-wax, do everything a particular way but WE won't teach you- you have to watch the others, march 10 miles in snow/rain to watch a film on first aid... then march back, take rifle apart and put back together within seconds 10,000 times, wake up in middle of night to do fire watch duty, do PT until you cannot move, march in formations for hours, etc., etc.
Techniques may be different but it all smacks of brainwashing. Military does it, cults do it, etc. It teaches us to obey orders immediately and without question- just do what we tell you RIGHT NOW!

More Conflicting Info: Dr. Fauci says another significant wave of Corona-Virus may NOT happen this Fall/Winter.

Contrast that with the Mainstream Media practically guaranteeing America will see Wave #2, making Mail-In Voting mandatory.

This stokes the fires of conflict.
One side say, "But Fauci said it won't get worse. Chill a bit."
The other sides freaks out in irrational existential fear and shouts back, "BUT SO-AND-SO AID IT MIGHT GET WORSE! PUT ON YOUR DAMN MASK YOU SELFISH JERK! QUIT BEING AN ENTITLED INDIVIDUAL AND THINK ABOUT THOSE WHO MIGHT SUFFER!
Check-mate.

The conflicting information is no accident, nor is it due to incompetence; it is purposeful and programmed.
