wvParticipantAs per usual, i have no idea how accurate this website or article is:

Sweden Did Not Take Herd Immunity Approach Against Coronavirus Pandemic
July 29
There is currently a tsunami of misinformation out there about how Sweden handled the coronavirus pandemic. Sweden did not opt to use a brief hard lockdown like many other countries, but instead put into place a robust set of long-term restrictions that combined both legal bans and voluntary guidelines. This was because leaving a hard lockdown would probably cause a major increase in number of cases as societies opened up again.The benefits of the Swedish strategy now appears to be confirmed because both the United States and many countries in Europe are now seeing hundreds of post-lockdown outbreaks. The current number of reported cases per day in the United States has passed the previous peak that the brief and hard lockdown was suppose to hammer down and rests on somewhere between 60 000 and 70 000 (which are just the tip of the ice berg as many cases go undiscovered).
In contrast, the number of new reported cases, the number of new ICU cases and the number of deaths are small and continuing going down in July of 2020 in Sweden. During the past 14 days, the average number of new ICU cases for COVID-19 in Sweden was one individual per day according to the Swedish Intensive Care Registry (the featured image above is from this source). More detailed data is presented below. Both deaths and new ICU cases peaked in April….

wvParticipantFrom the article in Jewish Currents in the above-tweet:
“….https://jewishcurrents.org/democrats-cant-win-without-the-left/
“…As the Democrats struggle to chart a new path forward, Republicans, too, are debating the party’s post-2020 agenda. As Nicholas Lemann wrote early this month in The New Yorker, the Trump years marked a break with what had long been the Republicans’ “fusionist” paradigm, its unwieldy coalition of Christian evangelicals, hardline nativists, and wealthy free-market fundamentalists. Though Trump largely let conventional corporate Republican administrators shape his administration’s policies, his populist, anti-globalization messaging has, for some, pointed the way toward a new direction for the party. Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who regularly decries the excesses of capitalism, is considered a formidable potential successor to Trump. Even Senator Marco Rubio, once a Tea Party favorite, is now talking about how markets have failed to serve people equitably. This should be a warning to the Democrats: If they retreat to bloodless, centrist messaging and allow Republicans to take up the mantle of economic fairness, they could suffer even further losses among working-class and middle-class voters across racial demographics….”
wvParticipantI wrote an article you can send to your parents! For their own good, Democrats should start seeing leftists as a key part of a coalition to hold onto, rather than as an object of scolding. Otherwise, the party can't win. https://t.co/5DVmu8RGZQ

wvParticipantYeah, Twitter is definitely part of the system. They equate ‘far left’ and ‘Nazis’. They do that false equivalency thing, the system does so well.
I dunno if twitter can be a tool for moving the country to the left or radicalizing more mainstreamers. Kinda looks like its just another echo-chamber.

Fr: New Deal Strategies, Justice Democrats, Sunrise Movement, Data for Progress Re: What went wrong for Congressional Democrats in 2020Dt: November 10, 2020…Support Black Lives Matter Two months ago, progressive strategists Ian Haney López, law professor at the University of California,Berkeley, and Tory Gavito, President of Way to Win, publicly and privately warned Democrats that Trump’s racist appeals against immigrants and Black Lives Matter polled effectively with a fair number of both African American and Latino voters — but they also demonstrated that a progressive message framing racism as a divide-and-conquer class weapon polled even more effectively.
According to their research, “a majority across the groups we surveyed did not repudiate Trump-style rhetoric as obviously racist and divisive, but instead agreed with it,” they wrote in the New York Times. But, they continued,“There’s a winning message Mr. Biden and his party can deliver that resonates with most Hispanics nomatter how they conceptualize the group’s racial identity… The key is to link racism and class conflict.”Over the last half-century, Republicans have harnessed strategic racism to divide the electorate.
Too often Democrats shy away from conversations about race and keep issues of economic justice and racial justice in separate siloes. Data has consistently shown that an explicit multiracial, populist message mobilizes and persuades voters.
Republican attacks levied at Democrats this cycle based on terms like “defund the police” or “socialism”have become scapegoats for Representatives like Abigail Spanberger, Conor Lamb, and other senior Democrats. Not a single Democrat — progressive or otherwise — argued that Democrats should run primarily on these themes. Moreover, these attacks will never go away, nor will demands for reform from social movements. The attacks are designed to stoke racial resentment, which is core to the GOP’s election strategy. Our party should not feed into it.We remember how controversial the simple statement “Black Lives Matter” was in 2014. In 2016 and2018, Democrats were nervous about being too closely associated with Colin Kaepernick and Black athletes kneeling during the national anthem. The latest choice for Democrats to locate our fear and blame is the slogan from many Black and young activists who marched the streets this summer: “Defund The Police.” Conservative Democrats may change the terms and people we blame and fear year-by-year, but Democrats must take on the Republican Party’s divide-and-conquer racism head-on and not demobilize our own base.This election, the Black youth leading….see link

I still think the Buffalo contest was a disgrace. Clearly, there was cheating.
I have my legal team on this.
A lot of illegal-points were tallied.
The Rams clearly won that game if only legal points were allowed, and illegal points were disallowed.
