*revives dead thread* I love the Impractical Jokers, I laugh every time Chris Rock and George Carlin are my favorites "whatchu want? a cookie?"

My father died suddenly after experiencing a medical emergency a few month prior. My sister died from kidney and heart failure after being sick for several years, well actually, most of her life. I don't know if the mind protects me in some way but in my day to day, I don't think of them as...

I read once that birds are suspicious by nature. It is a Native American belief from Black Elk Speaks about people being like birds. I don't embrace "opportunities" as well as I could because I tend to move forward cautiously. However, I can generally assess a situation and recognize the...

My sister used to say that "going out your feet" was to have your spiritual energy flowing the wrong way. To channel energy through the feet and out the head, not to try and go the other way

I think the ROOT issue for me, comes about because it is based on something my gut says is "wrong". The ignorance to completely disregard that the vaccination makes a new illness less life threatening, and is some kind of "Mark of the Beast" or somehow pollutes your DNA so you aren't a...

Pardon if this is the wrong place. I have trouble turning my thoughts off when I want to relax and rest. I also have a lot of trouble with balancing, "going out my feet" (whatever that is, my sister always said this to me) and centering. What are some things you have found that Calm your mind?

As far as "taxing" an anti vaxxer, it would be based on how much money society pays for "anti vax" patients who used up hospital resources. Trust me, being "anti vax" comes with thousands and thousands of dollars of care when an "anti vaxxer" gets sick

"counting coup" applies to successfully touching an enemy in honorable battle without killing them It is gross to compare dying from a preventable disease to honorable Native American tradition Really gross to me They are dying, so they failed to "count coup" they chose a slow suicide by...

We do "penalize" people for health concerns, we tax them . Think cigarettes and liquor We should tax the anti vaxxers to make up for the money and effort they take to deal with.

Society is not static, it evolves and changes. You are not entitled to a "platform" to spread your own ideas unless it belongs to you. Pretty sure that just deciding Manifest Destiny applies to social media isn't the answer. Twitter can ban who they want for whatever reason, it's a business...

Because posting isn't a "right" and they are businesses, NOT public entities

The problem becomes that these anti vax are burdening our health system. Last I read, at least 100,000 children have lost one or both caregivers. The hospital will eat the costs of treatment and the medical staff may never recover from the trauma of turning gasping patients on a roto bed while...

The reality is that Joe Rogan used to moderate a show where people ate cockroaches. If you take shit seriously from comedians then you got some issues. He's a fucking comedian, not some great Martyr for The Truth

Exactly the two sides I am torn against. The division between us needs to be bridged but the horrific choking, dying by inches of something that could be prevented is heartbreaking.

On Reddit, there is a thread called the Herman Cain Awards. It is meant to show posts of anti vaccination / conspiracy theorists. The FB pages are scanned and memes collected and when an anti vaxxer dies from COVID, they post to make fun of their stupidity. I find myself drawn to this...
