Cui Bono?

Apparently Jen Psaki asking Facebook to take some responsibility for platforming dangerous misinformation is censorship. Even using the term “misinformation” is censorship:

"You have such unique perspective having stood at that podium," Hegseth noted. "What's it like to watch Jen Psaki stand there and openly state we are working with Facebook? At one of the press conferences with the surgeon general, they used the phrase 'misinformation' 35 times over the course of that briefing."

(you can’t make this stuff up). Whatever it is, it’s all Biden’s fault. I continue to wonder why FoxNews and the GOP want to kill their audience/constituents. It is telling that the Mayor of Springfield, MO (on “Face The Nation” this morning) is more concerned with public health than a U.S. Senator. The farther away you are, the less real it is. The Covid infection rate is up 100 % ( 💯) in Texas.

Remember when Dan Patrick said it would be better if old people got sick and died? But now it’s young people (the Surgeon General is telling me we adults have to protect children who can’t get vaccinated by getting ourselves vaccinated). Why are we being encouraged to hate our children, Senator Cruz?

  1. After a brief hiatus because we are fully vaccinated, my wife and I are back to wearing masks at stores. The delta and other variants have us concerned. We are surrounded by the most vaccinated states, but it doesn't look to be enough to stop the next wave.

  2. Yup. If you go here https://urbanobservatory.maps.arcgis.com/apps/MapSeries/index.html?appid=ad46e587a9134fcdb43ff54c16f8c39b, you can track transmission rates etc. by county.In my county (Washington,RI), we are considered controlled at 40 positives per 100,000 population.This is around the lower limit for triggering mask mandates etc.in several European countries.So no, we are not out of this yet,and the more we pretend that we are, the farther away it gets.
