This forum is for discussions on the noteworthy events, people, places, and circumstances of both the past and the present (note: pop culture etc... is on the back porch).
Oster has built a personal brand on “data-based parenting.” She describes herself in her Twitter profile as “unapologetically data-driven.” But Oster is over her skis, both professionally and as a citizen, to make such a poor argument masquerading as a moderate position in The Atlantic. Especially since her essay is likely the beginning of a pivot among the ruling class to avoid accountability for using Covid to destroy our peace, prosperity, and ancient rights, it deserves the public beating it has received.
We the people were never told by the Covid totalitarians that their predictions were “uncertain” and “complicated.” They were so certain of their false claims that they sent police to record the license plates of people who attended church on Easter, a constitutional and human right. They shut down schools while keeping abortion facilities and marijuana dispensaries open. They were so sure of their moral righteousness that they seemingly gleefully threatened people’s ability to feed their kids if they didn’t take experimental injections for a disease that may have posed little risk to them. The vaccine mandates led to dangerous employee shortages at hospitals, police departments, and now in the U.S. military.
None of this deliberately inflicted mass suffering was necessary, and that was all known early on. It wasn’t, as Oster claims, a matter of “deep uncertainty.”
Now that the CH-54 is out of military service, we don't have the lift capability to drop JB Pritzker and his lockdown dodging family, so we'll have to figure something different out for Illinois.

And what are his priorities after the election? Killing babies and banning guns.

Bring 'em to me....I'll take care of it on the spot.
That group always irritates me. They have nothing to do with the Federalist Society, and I think they’re trying to “borrow” the prestige of that group.
Saying there’s never a reason for lock down/quarantine is flatly wrong. COVID was not, but ebola escapes Nigeria in the summer, and it’s “Lights Out” across the globe. Likewise, another Spanish Flu.
Offer free kale chips, latte's. Hell, just offer any free shit on the roof of a fairly tall building. Then let gravity do the work.
