The right wing propaganda and conspiracy theory media fake news bubble invented by Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch is responsible for the state of America today. Along with The Koch Brothers and Sheldon Addelson and all these right wing billionaires who’ve been spreading all these Republican lies for 25 years in order to divide America
@VicMarrow’s Head My point was, what if it is? Let’s say it is a bioweapon, like Chairman Netero above you stated: and? Until contained and or eradicated, it’s here and here to stay.
The biggest lies from the right were to accuse the left of doing precisely what they have done for years through Fox news and other so-called conservative media outlets. An ideal society would consist of a combination of values., neither one extreme or the other.

I live in Australia and I have been watching what has been going on with the presidential race in America. Someone on YouTube suggested I watch my own television networks in Australia, Which he suggested sky News. I had no idea we have a news organisation, as full of bullshit as Fox News.
Abortion has killed over three times more lives in 2020 then COVID-19, what say you?
The ignorance and denial runs deep.
OMG WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO…LIKE…IT ONLY HAS A 98 (or is it 99) % CHANCE OF SuRVIVAL. OHHH DEAR GOD…HOW WILL WE SURVIVE …I MEAN IT”S NOT AS BAD AS THE BLACK DEATH …BUT PEOPLE A 98% CHANCE OF SURVIVAL MEANS….well…ummm=..y’know like math and stuff… um… OMG GOD PEOPLE FREAK OUT BECAUSE THEY TELL YOU TO…NEVER MIND THAT THEY UNLEASHED IT ON PURPOSE ,,,,REALLY…FREAK THE F**K OUT WHEN we..(I MEAN YOUR) OVERLOARDS TELL YOU….
@gvi341984 and what do you know of SARS?
asinloveyunz.link
We have a lot of stupid people in the US.
@grandma k. It was very sad how deep in denial they are…Trump’s followers!
Yet many of those against abortion, have no problem potentially killing the rest of us by not wearing a mask properly, if at all.
@Jelli Rollz Not just your body when you’re KNOWINGLY spreading a virus that will kill someone else. What about their body? It got hurt because you didn’t listen.
@Curseofthehellmouth X CNN is saying that you need to stay in your home and vote by mail for biden or els you will catch a deadly dose of corona which will kill your family and friends make sure you wear a bag over your head don’t leave home don’t work,until all fraudulent ballots are cast,we don’t want anyone turning up at rallies as that might show the lack of support for biden.biden wants to hold your hand and show how much he loves you.
Critical thinking required- do you honestly believe Pelosi newscum chris cuomo would be out and about without masks if they worked. They do not work. Covid19 has a death rate of .00003% which means you have as much chance of dying from cutting an orange. Covid is being used to lockdown our economy forever. The Marxists within our country have betrayed you for money. They want “the great reset” and agenda 21, with a mandatory vaccine that won’t protect you from covid19 according to archbishop it is filled with aborted baby cells. It’s the ultimate satanic sacrifice. Your leaders are satanic. They tell you, and their symbolism will be their downfall.
because you are weak to think that a virus that has a 99.5% survival rate is that bad. wussy
People are utterly horrible. I hope this doctor regains 100% of his health.
@Son of Dagon and your point is? Yes, maybe true and my guess would be is that he learned from it. If he kept the same course of action up then shame on him. William Byrd served a long time in the senate with bad votes and he finally came around as did Jesse Helms. So it’s ok for republicans to do this but not democrats? Tell me where trump has even given a hint of reflection about his decisions? You think because you find one bad thing you have a gold mine? Trump has given us hundreds of reasons to know he only cares about one person.
He’s a doctor and to be that stupid it’s on him he deserved it cause he knew better

@Son of Dagon Shame on you for posting that link to libelous garbage. https://vietfactcheck.org/2020/08/31/false-washington-examiner-claims-biden-and-democrats-were-against-vietnamese-refugees/
@Damien Cross Did he have underlying conditions?
It’s also shocking when you hear ppl in the media say it’s not a deadly or serious disease. It shows even those with access to alot of information don’t care.
They care all right, but if they are pushing a political agenda they won’t necessarily admit to it.
Hes part of the “99%” survivors that the right wingers keep bringing up. He doesn’t know if he’ll ever be the same.

To win this pandemic is to sacrifice, unite, cooperation and trust your scientists and governments! Just leave your political views behind for now! Get serious about it!
Yeh I’ll trust the science when they have a real solution on how to stop the spread.
@Conflict Bricks so that fact that for hundreds of years science has known about masks and contagions but you deny that’s a real solution?
@Jo W. it’s not a vaccine is the only solution
Yes I agree. Americans must sacrifice, silly thing the sacrifices were so easy to follow
@Melisa leal diazyup! Americans already are battling with the pre- existing virus called “ignorant virus” it’s far more dangerous than the covid19 itself! Because there’s no cure or vaccine for those infected!
Facebook should be ashamed of themselves and well done to that Doctor for sharing his story.
I’m glad I left fb in June

@Son of Dagon You do realize the only reason why the death rates are so low is elderly and vulnerable people have been self isolating for months. While the idiots run round spreading a killer disease, dont you?
Your comment is as offensive as it ignorant as people sich as you have no respect for the people who died from Covid-19.
Did you see republicans took FB and tweeter to court yesterday? They want permission to spread lies. I know social media need regulations but this time it’s basically a war between what people wants to believe and science. I don’t think fb properly banned him, a trumper must have reported him. Mostly people ignorance.
They won’t show this on fox news AKA FAKE NEWS.
@Mila Sophia you’re wrong. Per capita. Our death rate is on par with others. Not to mention we are really quick to mark a death Covid death over here because of the political agenda. In fact hospitals will mark a death Covid without testing. It’s called presumable diagnosis. This all inflated the numbers

@Nurse Kathy you should see me at Publix, doing my bi-monthly grocery run …I live in Alabama where the stores have HUGE signs out front telling people they are LEGALLY mandated to wear a mask, and every few minutes they remind shoppers on the loud speaker…(yet they don’t enforce it). I look like I’m Pac-Man going up and down the aisles and changing direction if I see a maskless idiot. I wish that were funny….
@Karen Connors I feel sad for our country. We claim to be a nation of Christians and they all know that Jesus sacrificed for sins yet these people can’t even wear a mask because it’s a sacrifice to their freedoms. And I’m not even a Christian.
@Walter Baietti between CNN and fox /sky news, this is not even a contest. Fox news is NOT A NEWS AGENCY. In a court case, FOX NEWS defended themselves by saying they are OPINION MEDIA, and not a NEWS MEDIA, whose requirement is that their information be verified. Only dumb and stupid people believe gossip and opinion hawkers HANNITY and FOX Gossip, the MURDOCH run company, whose son quit because he can not take its propaganda.
Who ever attacked this HEROE on FB…SHAME ON YOU!!!!
@pacocharales Heroes are normal people showed great courage. That is the definition of a hero. It is a word with more than one meaning there is superhero you know the Spiderman Batman comic book tape. The fictitious hero. and then there is the real world hero.
@Landon Pelt nurses and doctors are not heroes!!! They have to do what they do because it is their job.
And honestly I think they’re kinda arrogant thinking that the have the fanciest, most important job but they don’t.
@pacocharales A job that at this time is rather dangerous. And I’m guessing if you were terribly terribly sick you would feel the doctors and nurses have one of the most important jobs. I am not a doctor or a nurse for the record. But doctors and nurses do save lives every day
@Landon Pelt they get paid a lot of money to save lives. It’s their duty.
They’re nothing special to me.
Just a bunch of overpaid people.
@pacocharales when you take into consideration the amount of education and insurance it takes for these doctors and nurses they are not over paid. Your feelings are doctors and nurses in normal times them not being heroes Could makes sense but at this time they are literally risking their lives every day when they go into work.
We live in a small town and have just been advised the mask mandate has extended to us. The number of people still refusing to believe is horrifying. Everyone needs to do their part to protect each other and wear the damn mask.
Make sure you wear a thick one. I’m in the same situation and it’s starting to hit us NOW. Rural Illinois
You don’t even need a mandate. We should react based on our survival skills. we cannot be naive, viruses are up to infect and kill people…just like Trump.
Right wing propagandist should really be indicted now because they’re bordering on dangerous to society 🤔
@The Elephant In The Room so why all the hate for fox news?
asinloveyunz.link
@The Elephant In The Room lmao not at all… y’all are the most closed minded people.
@The Elephant In The Room fake news… I have only seen video of MAGAts being violent.
@The Elephant In The Room bruh just go back to your propaganda generator, you far right wackos literally believe the conspiracy of the week as long as its a conservative favored bullshit, you will never admit you were wrong only how its everyone’s fault
I cannot believe what this country has become. The
Greatest Generation, who sacrificed so much during WWII with sending their friends and family members off to war, never to be seen
again, rationing, women riveting, building and flying airplanes and even playing baseball to keep up morale, would be dismayed and
disgusted with the current temperament of this country’s population, particularly with the anti-maskers and absurd conspiracy propaganda.

@rockstar you’re comment is one of the most ridiculous I have ever read.
@ROBIN HOOD sorry, but you’re nuts
@Walter Baietti I can guarantee that no one intelligent takes what you say seriously
Om
The cult of celebrity in the age of Trump is a virus in itself.

*_”With Freedom Comes Responsibility”_*
Please people, mask up. It’s not hard. 😷😷😷
And not forever! So it’s just mind boggling how many anti maskers out there.
@Brett Henry Well, you do know that it’s not a real pandemic right? I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t wear a mask if there is a pandemic. What stupid people like you don’t understand is that people aren’t wearing masks because they know the pandemic isn’t real! You’re the sucker!
@Checkmate Chess Channel 😂
@Jo W. – It’s not that uncommon actually. I will send you over the documents stating my infection as soon as you send over the documents showing Covid-19 isolation in the lab…..
@Lyssa P Thanks and please share this on all platforms as u see fit. Stay safe. 🙏
brilliantly said, ty everyone. his case is not unique and people must start understanding that fact. he is a ‘long hauler’ now. for survivors of covid19, some percentage of them will have debilitating long-term health problems. covid is not ‘just like the flu’. some of the long-term effects are permanent lung damage, blood clots, heart damage, kidney damage, intestinal rupture, a combination of organ damage, neurologic damage, and on and on. it is not a game, not something with which to play. mask up, follow social distancing guidelines, stay home when possible. stay safe everyone!
Everything you said is brilliantly true Mary, but wasn’t this guy a fraud? Did I miss something?
@Jess S he wasn’t a fraud, someone on facebook tried to claim it but it wasn’t true. i had that happen to me too, by someone who didn’t like the points that i raised to moscow mitch there. i had to upload my id to prove who i was. smh… the need to hide from the truth by some people is very strong, and ineffably sad.
and ty very much, that was so kind of you.
OMG WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO…LIKE…IT ONLY HAS A 98 (or is it 99) % CHANCE OF SuRVIVAL. OHHH DEAR GOD…HOW WILL WE SURVIVE …I MEAN IT”S NOT AS BAD AS THE BLACK DEATH …BUT PEOPLE A 98% CHANCE OF SURVIVAL MEANS….well…ummm=..y’know like math and stuff… um… OMG GOD PEOPLE FREAK OUT BECAUSE THEY TELL YOU TO…NEVER MIND THAT THEY UNLEASHED IT ON PURPOSE ,,,,REALLY…FREAK THE F**K OUT WHEN we..(I MEAN YOUR) OVERLOARDS TELL YOU….
@Son of Dagon run back to oan little one.
This is why America had 28% of Covid19 deaths despite having 4% of the population
We are an embarrassment 🙁 blessings and stay safe.
you got that from CNN lmao
He was a marathon runner with no pre-existing condition. Now he has trouble breathing. The CDC said it’s mostly spreading via small group gatherings. We’ve got to stop meeting up with friends/ family who aren’t in the same household.
Can you even BEGIN to imagine how stupid America looks to the rest of the world.
@Damon Grate Trump wins Nevada,Michigan,Biden wins Georgia,Game over Trump 2020!!
He’s cute. 🙂

We know who has to take responsibility: the President. And, of course, everyone supporting his attempts to destroy the truth. Every single one of his voters has a little part of responsiblity for a quater of million americans dead – and counting.
It turns out that narcissism is highly contagious. It can even be transmitted over cable.
