That isn't even remotely what I'm talking about. Were you not alive for this? It was the biggest news of the year. And the crazy thing is, they were right.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dixie_Chicks_controversy Thank you for confirming what I said about people voting with their $$$. This is a prime example and dove tails nicely into the other thread; "play stupid games win stupid prizes". The chicks obviously misjudged their fan base. Go troll something else. |

This is literally cancel culture. It was an organized effort. Just like you said. That just makes you a hypocrite
This is a forum. You are a troll. We know you for what you are. We engage openly without fear of reprisal. The mods have not perma banned you or erased all history of your postings have they? That would be cancel culture. You are not being harmed in anyway. Your livelihood is still intact and no one is threatening your means. Have a merry day troll. |

I know you think every news article not Fox or Newsmax is fake, so I easily found an article to fit your political leaning.

ummmmm OK. I guess my understanding of the term "zero" (in the headline) and "no" in the first sentence differ from yours.

They are currently running 40,000 to 50,000 new covid cases a day. Not much less than the US but a vastly smaller and skinnier population.
France actually has a high obesity relative to Japan at 22% but low relative to the US. France has less deaths than the US but much higher than Japan. Correlations are never perfect because weight isn't the only factor but it is the biggest predictor of Covid death. I posted a Johns Hopkins WHO study in another thread but 2.2 million of 2.5 million deaths according to their study occurred in countries with high BMI. The Japanese have worn masks when ill for many years as it is considered good manners. Mask use there is common and wouldn't be seen an an imposition. Japan did not do any general lock downs but very targeted and short lived ones only in areas of outbreaks. A good thing we should have mirrored here. |
