Are you talking to me or to desin?
I was referring to desin post content - but his markup was messed up and it took me a sec to fix it in mine after i noticed it (by removing any attribution from my post as i don't care who said it - i had an issue with what was said).

And how does it flatten the curve when you equate immigrants and foreigners of certain race with a disease? Have to say, that article of yours was a real insidious piece, simultaneously trying to whitewash European colonism of the Americas (as if the colonisers were just peaceful settlers trying to integrate into Indian societies and live peacefully among them) and to cast non-white immigrants as an invasion of terrorism, crime, and disease.
oh please, it flattens the curve by keeping infected people out, congratulations, calling trump racist accomplished more infected people coming to the US and we are all going to pay for it.

It's annoying having to explain things to you five times in a row.
The travel ban would've done nothing, because it still allowed US citizens through with a minimum of checks after they landed. Chinese expats didn't bring this virus here. Our own people did.
Ergo, his initial travel ban didn't do shit to stop it.
And the way we're flattening the curve isn't just about keeping infected people out. It's more about keeping everyone contained in isolation, so the virus can't spread about.

So, let me get the logic of this straight. Democrats criticised Lord Dampnut. --> Lord Dampnut got his precious feelings hurt and failed to do something. --> This is the fault of Democrats.
Sounds less like the problem of having an opposition party who criticises the president and more like a problem of having a president who's a whiny little bitch.

Oh man. OH MAN! YOU GONNA CROSS THE STREAMS, BRAH?
What have I been doing? Well, I got this friction burn on the top of my hand here a few days back, and I've been picking at the scab. Not a lot. Just trying to even things out a little bit.

Still going to work. I'm at work right now. I thought Japan was doing great because it has very low numbers, but I'm being told by others that the admin is so desperate to keep the Olympics that they're avoiding testing like the plague. So I shouldn't trust those numbers. But anyway, schools have been out for a while and a lot of people are staying home regardless.

Being a crowded country with an aging population, Japan should damn well be flipping its shit over this.
