DaemonFC[m]Yeah, I've been accumulating all kinds of hand sanitizer.Aug 24 00:01
DaemonFC[m]The lady at the exit at Walmart yesterday looked at me funny because I got 5 handfuls of it out of their automatic dispenser and my hands were dripping with it.Aug 24 00:01
DaemonFC[m]I said, "Well, you can't be too careful.".Aug 24 00:02
DaemonFC[m]I've actually never used hand sanitizer before.Aug 24 00:02
DaemonFC[m]But, there's never been a pandemic like this spreading through surfaces before. It's always been all the usual stuff that people get exposed to constantly.Aug 24 00:02
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: Starting to wonder if people should have to wear masks every flu season.Aug 24 00:03
DaemonFC[m]Seems like a cheap way to cut the flu in half.Aug 24 00:03
schestowitzresistance will decreaseAug 24 00:04
schestowitzbetter give them flu shotAug 24 00:04
schestowitzweakened or dead fluAug 24 00:04
schestowitzand then they can cope better, it won't pass if you defeat it fastAug 24 00:04
DaemonFC[m]If we did both, the flu would hardly be a thing.Aug 24 00:05

schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: flu kills old people, mostly...Aug 24 00:06
schestowitzcheersAug 24 00:06
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, I get my shots though.Aug 24 00:07
DaemonFC[m]I don't want the flu.Aug 24 00:07
DaemonFC[m]It kills different demographics every time it flares up because not every flu is the sameAug 24 00:07
DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: The IBM punch cards were not limited to race.Aug 24 00:10
schestowitzmeasurements and suchAug 24 00:11
schestowitzbut that's not the pointAug 24 00:11
DaemonFC[m]They tracked communists and homosexuals too. Hitler looked the other way with the SA until he wanted rid of it. The homosexuality.Aug 24 00:11
schestowitzit's the nature of projects these were leased forAug 24 00:11
schestowitzalso in the US Aug 24 00:11
schestowitzprior to the Nazi Party being in powerAug 24 00:11
schestowitzand in JamaicaAug 24 00:11
DaemonFC[m]Yeah, the US government is still paranoid about Communism.Aug 24 00:11
DaemonFC[m]They have questions pertaining to Communism on the green card application.Aug 24 00:12
MinceRbut now everyone knows the only problem with "communism" was that they forgot to stick "national" in frontAug 24 00:12
DaemonFC[m]Yes, the only questions about whether you're a Nazi on a Green Card application is whether you were a member of the Nazi Party in Germany before 1945, or whether you assisted them.Aug 24 00:12
schestowitzwaitAug 24 00:13
DaemonFC[m]It's still possible that someone who was in the Hitler Youth or something could try to apply for a Green Card. Aug 24 00:14
schestowitzbut Germans don't need a Green Card Aug 24 00:14
schestowitzAFAIKAug 24 00:14
schestowitzthe password is widely used for access to the US workforceAug 24 00:14
schestowitzI don't need a US green card  afaikAug 24 00:14
schestowitzbut maybe this has changedAug 24 00:14
DaemonFC[m]You would if you wanted to reside here permanently as a non-citizen. Aug 24 00:14
DaemonFC[m]Green Card holders can't vote and are eligible for Social Security and Medicare provided they have enough work credits.Aug 24 00:16
DaemonFC[m]They also cannot be denied entry into the United States.Aug 24 00:16
DaemonFC[m]But they can have their Green Card revoked for a number of very serious crimes.Aug 24 00:17
schestowitzanyway, about the text..Aug 24 00:17
DaemonFC[m]I mean, they won't take it away if you got a speeding ticket, but they might if you drove drunk and they find out about it.Aug 24 00:17
DaemonFC[m]Depends on if you were convicted, and what for.Aug 24 00:17
DaemonFC[m]Not much text.Aug 24 00:18
DaemonFC[m]Looks okay.Aug 24 00:18
schestowitzcheersAug 24 00:19
schestowitzthis throws a spanner into their PR tacticAug 24 00:19
schestowitzwhich mirrors Microsoft's and Intel's Aug 24 00:20
schestowitzthey want us to obsess over wordsAug 24 00:20
schestowitzhelps distract from things like eugenics, war, pedophilia etc.Aug 24 00:20
DaemonFC[m]Illinois has been trying to sabotage ICE in various ways.Aug 24 00:22
DaemonFC[m]One of which is allowing an immigrant to take a plea deal, serve a punishment, and then withdraw their plea. Aug 24 00:22
DaemonFC[m]The court then accepts the withdrawal of the plea after the punishment has been carried out.Aug 24 00:23
DaemonFC[m]Federal law says that an alien is subject to removal for various offenses if they have been convicted by a state government, which includes court supervision after a plea deal, even if the state doesn't say it convicted them.Aug 24 00:23
DaemonFC[m]So the state has created a legal fiction where you plea, get punished, and then withdraw the plea. Aug 24 00:24

DaemonFC[m]I'm still trying to figure out how I should vote on this.Aug 24 00:30

DaemonFC[m]That's what politicians do though. They cut police, fire fighters, and medicaid even though there's lots of bad spending to cut from, as a threat.Aug 24 00:31
DaemonFC[m]You raise the corporate income tax from 4.95% to 7.85% and a lot of those black owned businesses will collapse.Aug 24 00:33
DaemonFC[m]Walmart will either absorb it, find a way to cheat their way out of it, or start cutting employee pay and work hours.Aug 24 00:33
DaemonFC[m]They figure out a way to make everything a problem for their employees.Aug 24 00:34
DaemonFC[m]If thefts or returns are a little high this month, cut hours.Aug 24 00:34
DaemonFC[m]Corporate makes you give them $350 for risking their lives due to COVID-19, they get 9 fewer hours this week.Aug 24 00:34
DaemonFC[m]The bonuses for COVID-19 are propaganda and kabuki theater. If you don't know any better, Walmart is doling out bonuses and that's where the story ends.Aug 24 00:35

DaemonFC[m]So, this tax proposal is really a blackmail letter.Aug 24 00:36
DaemonFC[m]"Vote to raise taxes or something even worse will happen, to you. We'll make sure of it.".Aug 24 00:36
DaemonFC[m]"By pushing for a tax increase that will directly harm Black businesses and workers, Pritzker is advocating for a policy that will further the economic inequality being protested. The governor must understand that."Aug 24 00:37
DaemonFC[m]Of course he does. Once he bowls over all of those black owned businesses in south Chicago with a new tax they can't pay, they'll have to board the place up and leave. It's more pressure on them to clear out and get out of town so that rich white people can finish taking the city.Aug 24 00:38

DaemonFC[m]Trump has really been cracking down on Illinois corruption. Not for the right reasons.Aug 24 00:40
DaemonFC[m]He has a raging hard on for it because it was the state that propelled Obama to the White House and because it's Democratic Party corruption, mostly.Aug 24 00:41
DaemonFC[m]"Crestwood has about 10,000 residents, but between installation in 2016 until June 2019 their eight SafeSpeed cameras brought in over $13 million."Aug 24 00:42
DaemonFC[m]That's not uncommon. Suburb towns don't put them in to catch locals. They put them in on major highways that just barely fall within the city limits.Aug 24 00:42
DaemonFC[m]On Route 12, there's about a dozen red light cameras between Fox Lake and Chicago operated by several towns.Aug 24 00:42

DaemonFC[m]schestowitz: The United States has had about the same results with Trump's response to the Coronavirus as Sweden, who just did nothing other than a halfassed attempt to put its nursing homes on lockdown. Aug 24 19:07
DaemonFC[m]If you look at the deaths per capita, the US is similar to Sweden. Strikingly similar.Aug 24 19:07
DaemonFC[m]They assumed that natural spread would just "wash over" the population (Trump's words) and what they have is the same as what Trump brought to the US. A slow burning nuclear meltdown that's killing thousands of Americans per day (though Sweden is smaller).Aug 24 19:08
schestowitzlet's see today's uk numbersAug 24 19:09
DaemonFC[m]Trump actively sabotaged state shutdowns and conspired to prevent them from getting medical supplies to interfere with the spread. His son-in-law told him they didn't need to do anything because in March it was "killing Democrats" and they didn't think a virus would ever pour over state lines or anything.Aug 24 19:09

DaemonFC[m]Because of Trump's Coronavirus disaster, 100,000 American businesses and counting are closed forever and heading to the bankruptcy courts, and many of them are restaurants that can't turn a profit anymore because you can't operate like this.Aug 24 19:19

DaemonFC[m]Also, the eviction moratorium was allowed to expire and Trump's fake kabuki theater executive order isn't protecting anyone because it simply commanded federal agencies to do studies while people are losing their homes.Aug 24 19:19
DaemonFC[m]So 50-60% of most states' renters and a similar percentage of homeowners face eviction as soon as the landlord or bank can motion up their case and get the Sheriff out, and I don't know what this failed fascist is going to say at the RNC that could possibly make people forget about that.Aug 24 19:20

DaemonFC[m]The polling so far shows that I'm probably right.Aug 24 19:31
DaemonFC[m]There's not a lot of rogue Sanders supporters this time who absolutely won't vote for anyone else.Aug 24 19:31
DaemonFC[m]I did the Sanders and then Clinton thing in the 2016 cycle.Aug 24 19:32
DaemonFC[m]I voted in the Indiana primary for Sanders because I lived there at the time and then in the Illinois general election for Clinton.Aug 24 19:32
DaemonFC[m]Sanders won the Indiana Democratic Primary and Clinton won the general election in Illinois.Aug 24 19:33

DaemonFC[m]I'm like "Well, you've been in office for four years, you've done none of that, and what you did do is drop a hate crime charge against a Donald Trump supporter in Lake County who chased down a Latino man with an icepick and told him to "Get the #### out of our country." and made a deal to drop it to a misdemeanor, after telling the news there was no place for hate crimes in Lake County.".Aug 24 19:37
