But keep on kneeling. Bad habits are hard to break.

Kneeling before dictators? Us? No Skybird, there's a reason Führerkult is a German word. Americans would never debase themselves the way your people did. Like you said bad habits are hard to break.

"It can't happen here." ^_^;

Just feel familiar to see people calling traitor anyone disagreeing with The Leader. ;-)

So where are you from then Rufus? Most folks here put their location or home country in their profile.

We can always discuss if our leaders and our authorities have done the right thing in this matter.

I must say I agree with what one of the Danish politician said on the news earlier. It's not the time to throw word against each other, but stand together in this crisis.

The country of freedom (that's litterally the meaning of the country's name: "free") and a very long history of kicking asses militarly while being feared by our own political leaders for deposing them when they become inconvenient: France. ;-)

You should put that in your profile so folks will know where you are coming from.

I thought it was obvious, considering how insufferable and arrogant I sound. But, yeah, done.

For me it's not important where a member live or where their are from. The important thing for me is how they are treating others here on our forum.

You do it right now - worshipping the carricature of a president and a leader with serious psychological and personality disorders.

And dont fool yourself. The failings and budget cuts of Trump and his cracking down on the CDC in past years will and must cost many of your citizens their lives - that under a different, less incompetent regime they maybe would have saved.

But march on little tin soldier, one, two, three, four, always march on, blind and loyal, three and four... Illusions justify every means.

FWIW I personally don't find our oldest allies nearly as insufferable and arrogant as some of my German relatives.

Anyhow, with the trading of personal poison shots out of the way for today, here are the latest two updates by chris Martens.

"Your grandparents were called to war. You are being called to sit on the couch. Do it!"

And just 40 minutes ago:

"Follow people if they make a lot of sense, but if they are not - go and follow into a different direction..."

It seems "recovered" does not always mean "recovered". Lung function loss of 20-30% sounds pretty severe to me. (20:20 ff)

That means more arrogance is required! *gets his military grade thin cigarettes and beret before grabbing August to a art cinema for fifteen hours of gazel-naving philosophical movies which will be paused ever eight point five seconds to start a commentary based on the latest artistic fad followed by a mandatory strike*

We have just closed the border to your Elsass region.

You have been warned.

(Fact, not joke, the Saarland shut down).

Sigh. At least noone is getting idiotic over "austerity measures" now. And, well, the plan agreed upon between the House Democrats and the WH seems to be reasonable, about supporting workers and companies during the crisis in order to avoid an economic meltdown.

Neal, still no bog paper any where around here.

Why are stupid people buying up tons of bog paper? Some one in the UK please tell me as there is no evidence COVID-19 gives you the trots.
