I just want to give a shout-out to the mods on this page. They volunteered to moderate a forum about hockey and yet have stuck around to deal with a forum that talks about masks and vaccines more than the sport we all love. In addition, despite some very different opinions, the ability to hide behind a false name and all the stress of the season it is relatively civil in here. In other types of social media it’s like a war zone being dominated by crazy people (from both sides of every imaginable topic) but here I seem to be able to debate in a mostly friendly way. Thanks everyone! Now back to your regularly scheduled fighting about things well beyond our control 38 minutes ago, bishopshodan said: Hear Hear! I second this thought.

They never married each other me being a "love child", but did marry others, Mother had 9 other children, Dad had 4 other children. I have met about 8 of these 13 children. Mother had a father who did no believe in vaccinations, so would not let his children get the polio vaccination. One died at about 14, another became a quadriplegic. I was luck enough to meet her about 3 months before she died in her 50's. She ran everything from a puffer on her chair. Answered the phone, turned on the TV, opened doors, etc. She was printing out her mom's poetry and song lyrics by puffing into an old Apple IIe in Morse code. then she printed it out from there. She did art work by painting with her mouth. She died in her 50's her bast**d father lived to 90. sorry to hear that, but it does show the fire some of these "narrative" ass hats are playing with. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just listening to comments from the new Conservative federal leader I realize how difficult it would be to get anything meaningful done in government if there weren't measures that could be used in emergency. Look at what is happening in the US with the latest proposed relief bill. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at what is happening in the US with the latest proposed relief bill. we're so fortunate we're not being government by someone like Jason Kenney or O'Toole nationally. Kenney puts out a statement that no Albertan will be "forced" to take the vaccine just pathetic tin foil hat pandering. I've gained some respect for Doug Ford, he's not playing games to placate the weird alt-right portion of his base. Good for him. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Warhippy Posted December 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2020 2 hours ago, Quinn Skates said: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/index.htm So virtually no one gets the seasonal flu now? How can you explain this? Seriously guys, wake the F up! Ok. Let's address this one by one. because you've a lot of deep state style statements here. What do you mean wake up? There are still in fact cases of the flu happening. What you're seeing is that social distancing, wearing masks and washing your hands is as effective at ensuring the flu does not get spread as the experts have said for literal decades. Nothing more nothing less. 1 hour ago, Quinn Skates said: Something is definitely up. They're inflating the covid numbers so it looks worse than it actually is. It has always been the case but people don't believe it. That data right there is a very clear proof. How can that be explained otherwise? What do you think or suggest is up exactly? WHO is inflating the covid numbers? What exactly do THEY have to gain from it? The data says you're wrong but do go on and try to explain your statements please 55 minutes ago, Quinn Skates said: Nope. It would make sense if covid cases are decreasing together with seasonal flu, but no. Covid cases actually rose by 8% compared to the previous 2 weeks. So your covid precautions clearly isn't a factor here at all. Covid is up, seasonal flu down. Come in, it's not that hard to add them up Incorrect again. SARS-Covid has different transmission markers than the regular flu, as well people en masse are getting vaccinated for the flu virus, by all reports the vaccine this year nailed the influenza type on the money. This as well as basic common sense and hygiene has helped immensely in ensuring that the flu virus has been mitigated to below record levels. Where as again, there is no vaccine for the Covid-19 virus, nor is there any rhyme or reason for infection rates and who gets it vs who doesn't which is why this virus is such an issue. People are being infected because they are being stupid about things. 53 minutes ago, Quinn Skates said: Covid is up 8%, so no. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/us/coronavirus-us-cases.amp.html See above. 7 minutes ago, Quinn Skates said: 4. So it's true. If those that got tested for covid actually got a seasonal flu test instead, then it would have been the seasonal flu and not covid. 5. It's early in the flu season, but CDC compares the same point in time as in previous years. Lastly, so this will be an annual concurrence now just like the seasonal flu. Covid will never go away. What's the need for over reaction then? We never locked down with the seasonal flu. And if covid keeps coming back, what's the lockdown for? 4. Based on what exactly? They are two entirely different viruses. So no, the markers would have and are in fact different. 5. They do year by year charts yes. What is your point? Lastly, we have built up ZERO tolerance or immunity to SARS-Covid 19 as we have our seasonal influenza A and B viruses. We have no natural immunities, or built up. We have no vaccines. The "over reaction" is literally keeping people alive. Do you take issue or unbrage with that? 4 minutes ago, Quinn Skates said: Oh so you can't question the narrative now? Is that what you want? That you just keep your mouth shut and follow whatever order is given you? Is that how democracy and a civilized society works? We all keep fighting for equality and inclusion but seems like most of us don't know how to use those rights. What exactly is the "narrative" you keep referring to? You have made suggestions of they, them, the narrative but have not in fact told us what that narrative is, who they are or what their goal is. Please elaborate. 3 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post aGENT Posted December 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) I dunno guys, I haven't been sick since last February right before this all started. I got laid off/haven't been working and most people have been distancing/wearing masks/washing or sanitizing hands etc, our kids have been taught at home, we've had very limited contact with friends and family etc, etc. Clearly that all means covid is a hoax. #reasons Edited December 4, 2020 by aGENT 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if I test positive for lung cancer but I also test positive for the common cold, then I don’t have cancer, because it would have been the common cold instead?

Master Mind Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 2 hours ago, Jimmy McGill said: @debluvscanucks do we really need to see this? people like this should be banned. knock off this crap please. What is it these days with conspiracy nuts coming out of the woodwork? If you ban those people, they'll find another place to post, likely an echo chamber on facebook, twitter, etc. and those groups end up believing those ideas even more. Debate/debunk the ideas, and you have a chance to change their mind. I.e. if you can convince even 1 anti-masker to wear one, that's progress. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
