Also if you've had your #flushot this year it provides some protection so you can worry less. Assuming they even allow a shutdown, it will be very short compared to #Covid .

That said in the west, it will be very shot. However Trump will hold the rest of the world hostage who can't get in and it will take then 6 months or a ton of money and concessions to get the vaccine.

A photo of a 3D paper castle made of sections of white paper printed with black ink assembled into a three-dimensional form. On the left wall is a pair of large closed double doors in a pointed gothic arch, with elaborate arched porticos to either side. On the right side wall, another large set of double doors stand partially open between two square towers with round stained glass windows on all sides. The paper castle sits on a scratched wooden desk. A pink and white geranium blooms on a windowsill behind the castle.

Trump has picked Dr. Janette Nesheiwat for Surgeon General. Nesheiwat has spread misinformation about vaccines, masks, and COVID.

According to the Puritans, Christians shouldn't celebrate Christmas because it's not in the Bible. Instead, they should be inside a church, which isn't in the Bible. Reading the Bible. Which isn't in the Bible.

Great. Here come the Nazis.

Gorka is a member of an antisemetic group that cooperated with Hitler. A former Fox News shill, too.

According to the Forward, Gorka did not disclose his membership in the group when he emigrated to the U.S. in 2012, as the State Department says Vitezi Rend members "are presumed to be inadmissible" under the Immigration and Nationality Act. Leaders of Vitezi Rend say members take a lifelong oath of loyalty to the group.

#teeline question:

The word "defund" is tricky, as the way I would expect to write it in teeline would be the same as "defend". I know you can sinetines use a vowel indicator to disambiguate in such circumstances, but the indicators for U and E are identical, aren't they?

I'm not sure this is a case where context would necessarily clear it up either.

Thoughts?

"You can't shout fire in a crowded theater" because the actual origin of that phrase was Schenck v. United States, a Supreme Court ruling that upheld that being publicly opposed to conscription for the US entering World War 1 was NOT protected speech, because by impeding the American war machine with your words, you are harming the American people as a whole.
Is 'Free Speech' dead?
It's unconstitutional to stifle or outlaw acceptable speech, no matter what form it takes, so is it allowable to stifle the voice of a few for the betterment of the masses?
But a favored class of Americans now control both our government and the minds of the masses.
They've flooded our nations with third worlders that don't care about anything but the gibs, thereby denying Whites from acting in their own self interest in a peaceful manner.
What avenues are left to us short of civil disobedience?
