The pandemic has been cured, yet again we set a record for deaths in a day.  Are you like Trump in thinking it will all go away magically?  There is a great deal of work that has yet to be done and which the Republicans are not doing.

Racism looks like the bad cops murdering minorities at whim, the Proud Boys invading minority areas and instigating violence, the Wolverine Watchmen planning to kidnap a state governor.  Passing a federal bill to make it unnecessary for the protests to start up again when the weather warms seems prudent.  Without such a bill, the people will let their will be known again and the red violence will restart.  We will see if the Republican obstructionism continues.

Destroying monuments dedicated to the Civil War isn’t a key element for me.  In Massachusetts  the monuments celebrate the winning side.  They celebrate freedom and courage.  I can see how many would see an end to celebrating racism.

Clucking like chickens is a reference to being obsessed and advocating violence while being too cowardly to actually do anything.  I do not advocate violence.  You do.  Between your obsession with violence, CH56’’s strange ideas on boomers, and Xenakis’s tribal thinking and xenophobia, it would be nice to deal with something relatively sane.  It is less about intelligence, more about people clinging to worldviews which are more than a little disconnected from reality.
