Mr. HouseParticipant
One last observation:
Just got back from my daily walk. Noticed a 200 lbs + woman walking her dog with a mask on. My first thought was isn’t obesity now being said to be one of the largest weakness to covid? Not that it won’t change to something else again in two weeks. Then it occurred to me! exercise is hard=responsibility wearing a mask is easy and gives the appearance of responsibility. That is how we need to view everything in todays world. If it requires work, sacrifice, responsibility, it won’t be done. If it doesn’t require that but gets virtue signaling points, it will be done. Apply that to anything going forward and you’ll have an easy answer that should be right 99.9 percent of the time.
Mr. HouseParticipantcase in point
Mr. HouseParticipant“I Wouldn’t Take It” – Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb Trashes Russia’s ‘First-In-The-World’ COVID Vaccine
Take this headline as an example. If you say this about an american made vaccine, you’re a nutter. You’re just straight up crazy and prob an anti-vaxer. I’ve even heard that if you’re lucky to still have a job but refuse to take a vaccine you can be fired. But if you say this about a Russian vaccine you’re George Washington reincarnated.
Mr. HouseParticipantSay what you will but Covid feels alot like TDS syndrome. We’re all susceptible to it, on some topics more then others. They know us too well. They’ve been studying how our minds work for how long now, not so much with the intent to help and alleviate suffering, but more so to be able to manipulate us. Make us into the people we “should” be.
Mr. HouseParticipant“forgive them father, they know not what they do”
makes way too much sense these days.
Mr. HouseParticipant“Just thank the gods you don’t have Trump…”
Says the guy who doesn’t even live here anymore.
I didn’t vote for Trump or Hillary in 2016. The sad part is you can’t even be neutral in this country anymore. Honestly, the people who were against Obama were much more mature then those against Trump. I know they had some humdingers on citizenship and so forth, but everyone just viewed that as crazy uncle at thanksgiving (which i’m sure most of my family considers me). What has happened in the last 4 years is dangerous. It feels like i’ve been abducted by an insane religious cult and they’re about to force me to drink the poison coolaide. I don’t think you can come back from something like this. Its like that point when you’re dating someone and you’re in one of the many arguments you’ve been having over the past year, and then you say something you know you shouldn’t have said. Deepdown a little voice is saying in your head, welp its over. You can’t walk that one back buddy. That is what this feels like. You can’t have conversations with people, they refuse to see what they don’t want to see. I myself (not sure if i did this intentionally) have found that since 2016 i’ve been withdrawing from society. Its just not worth interacting with people who do not listen. People who were anti invasion of syria are now for it “because the kurds” even though they were against iraq. The world has been flipped upside down. Cats sleeping with dogs and mass hysteria.
Mr. HouseParticipant” The one thing we all agree on is no one has consequences. No reward for work, no consequences for failure, lies, theft, or murder.”
This is one of the things i’ve been trying to wrap my head around of late. I can’t figure it out. Talk about a bottomless rabbit hole
Mr. HouseParticipantreplace russia with military and replace china with intelligence agencies
Mr. HouseParticipantha thats the biggest hurdle my friend. Too many people blinded by party dogma.
Mr. HouseParticipantHonestly we all need to stop paying attention to this stuff. Its just a dog chasing his tail. We have no power over the outcome. Both sides are awful. We never talk about starting a new party or movement. We just read, roll our eyes and yell at each other.
Mr. HouseParticipantWith regards to hydroxychloroquine/zinc:
The only thing i can think of on why TPTB are so hostile to it, it would end their party early if it ended up being effective with COVID-19.
The longer this goes on the more it feels like a color revolution. Rest of the world hates trump as much as the left in america. Yo rest of the world, it us americas intelligence agencies. We know you hate trump as much as we do and you don’t want another 4 years of him. We’ve got this plan to totally tank the economy, not to mention its kinda on the ropes anyways. Can we count on you guys to go along? We’ll make sure you get boatloads of money. If this is true, then it destroys my idea that Trump is just a stooge.
Mr. HouseParticipantRaul have you ever read anything by FOFOA?
Mr. HouseParticipant“The Internet has become an Orwellian chorus of shrieking, sanctimonious voices bullying everyone into conformity with charts, graphs, and desperate guilt-trips, few of which have much connection to reality. Corporations and governments are censoring dissent. We’re approaching a level of manufactured mass hysteria and herd mentality that not even Goebbels could have imagined.”
cough cough naked capitalism cough cough
So whats the deal with finance anymore? Should we all expect interest rates to remain at zero for the rest of our lives, like i have since 2008?

CJ Hopkins is great if you guys haven’t read him
Mr. HouseParticipant@my parents said know
“The Titanic is an icon of hubris. I suspect the species is currently working on a better one.”
its called the global economy and the idea that those at the top earned that right
Mr. HouseParticipant8 months in and we still don’t know where the virus came from or when it was first in the United States. Seems to me these should have been the first two things we answered.
Mr. HouseParticipant7 billion people
697,289 deathsWhich leads to the chicken vs the egg argument, if we’d not done this those death numbers would be much higher!
Strikes me as the same argument about how if we hadn’t QE’d back in 08 that i always heard when i argued against it. And if you were against it you were just a cold hearted person. And if you’re against the covid hysteria you’re a cold hearted person. Goal posts just keep moving.
Mr. HouseParticipantHonest question:
How much of what is going on is due to people actually thinking or how much is due to people just wanting to fit in? So much of what is going on now feels like its the cool people shouting you down just because. No reason or logic to it
Mr. HouseParticipantI’m not voting, nor do i think it makes a difference so thats one thing i dont have to worry about this year, thank god.
Mr. HouseParticipantMr. HouseParticipantSo many shenanigans, and all in an election year, what are the odds!
Mr. HouseParticipantAlso, why does anyone even report what Neil Kashkari feels the proper response to the virus is? Doesn’t anybody other then me find this strange? My fav Kashkari moment was maybe a year or 2 ago on NPR. He and Kye risedale (spelling?) were basically rewriting the history of the financial crisis on air while i yelled at my radio.
Mr. HouseParticipantYes with regards to Japan. The funny thing is when their bubble burst in the early 90’s we told them to liquidate. Then when our bubble burst we couldn’t even take our own advice. The things people will do when their power is at stake.
Mr. HouseParticipantAll i know is thank god i don’t have cable tv. Can you imagine being trapped at home, nothing is open, and having to listen to political ads day in and day out until the election?
Mr. HouseParticipantIf that is the future, it strikes me as being very Roman.
Mr. HouseParticipant“Ask Abe and Kuroda.”
So declining household formation and birthrates. National Suicide?
Mr. HouseParticipant“The only result is that people spend less, because they don’t trust the government urging for them to spend more”
If you can’t even get people to spend more, which most people are inclined to do, because they don’t trust you, how do you run a society?
Mr. HouseParticipantMr. HouseParticipantOccam’s razor:
We needed an excuse to print the largest amounts of money in the history of the world, knew we couldn’t do it without some kind of cover and here we are. Release a virus that mainly hurts the eldest in your society, you didn’t want to pay for them on social security and medicaid anyways. Hype it up and blast conflicting information to confuse the populace. Wash rinse and repeat
Mr. HouseParticipant@maxwell quest
I concur sir. I live what i preach. My father always taught me to take responsibility for my actions. I’ll keep an eye out for that movie. Another good quote from cloud atlas to equal out my cynicism:
Belief is both prize & battlefield, within the mind & in the mind’s mirror, the world. If we believe humanity is a ladder of tribes, a colosseum of confrontation, exploitation & bestiality, such a humanity is surely brought into being, & history’s Horroxes, Boerhaaves & Gooses shall prevail. You & I, the moneyed, the privileged, the fortunate, shall not fare so badly in this world, provided our luck holds. What of it if our consciences itch? Why undermine the dominance of our race, our gunships, our heritage & our legacy? Why fight the “natural” (oh, weaselly word!) order of things?
Why? Because of this:—one fine day, a purely predatory world shall consume itself. Yes, the devil shall take the hindmost until the foremost is the hindmost. In an individual, selfishness uglifies the soul. For the human species, selfishness is extinction.
Mr. HouseParticipantHe took the kid
He wants the right
They took his ears
They took his eyes
They said a ride
Is never free
He couldn’t hear
He couldn’t see
Well there are things
That have to die
So other things
Can stay alive
The fire burns
It burns to give
It has to burn alive to live
The other men spoke low
They took a vote and said no
They turned around real slow
Where did they go? Where did they go?
And the question oh, the question
Can the kid keep his eyes?
And the fire doesn’t die, said, “no”
Said, “no”
Said, “you don’t know what king we serve, boy
Oh, you don’t know what things we employ”
The other men spoke low
They took a vote and said no
They turned around real slow
Where did they go? Where did they go?Mr. HouseParticipant@ Zerosum
Yep. Ever had a corporate boss who didn’t like you just because? Not because you did a bad job, in fact they knew the rest of the group couldn’t get the workload done without, but because you wouldn’t bend the knee and kiss the ring, they made your life a living hell?
Mr. HouseParticipant“This theme seems to be endemic today, the powerful preying upon the weak. It is tolerated, accepted, encouraged, and now rewarded. Can such a system long endure when the corruption typically found in the gutter is enshrined as the driving engine of the nation?”
When in human history has this not been the system? Cloud atlas (a great movie and book) had a line “the weak are meat that the strong do eat”. Life is just one never ending stint in high school. The strong and powerful didn’t bully the weak in high school? That’s why i can’t get down with BLM and all these social justice movements. That type of bullying happens to everyone and anyone.
Mr. HouseParticipantwhen you think about it economics is alot like covid 19. It is a system that we all live in, and if the majority of actors are not responsible it ends up hurting other people. Hence i wear a mask when i’m in a store because i don’t want to hurt anyone else. But in economics, who gives a s$%^ about responsibility, so don’t lecture me about being responsible
Mr. HouseParticipant“Perhaps you shouldn’t have bought a house in the past ten years but booooy you couldn’t resist those low low interest rates huh?”
Not to mention that you don’t even have to put any money down these days! What is it, 1% or 3% you have to be able to put down to buy a house? I think my old man told me his first house was 20% down. What is wrong with that? Oh well if you’re trying to keep the ponzi scheme that is our housing market alive, you can’t demand that people put 20% down. Sales would drop, perhaps prices would go down, and we can’t have that. That’s just heartless to demand any sort of responsibility of people. Only a sadistic republican would demand that people be responsible. Ah but the people at the top aren’t responsible, so whats so bad about people at the bottom trying to get their beak wet, just a little.
Mr. HouseParticipant“Can someone explain what is wrong with a temp extension of unemployment benefits and the eviction ban, given that the sides are miles apart?”
Will extending it accomplish anything? Someone the other day said things aren’t black and white, but i’m beginning to think that is a copout. If you extend this, will those people suddenly have enough money later to be able to afford what they can’t afford now? I for one would love to see lower rents due to some pressure being relieved on the market. I for one would love to see lower housing prices due to some pressure being relieved from the market. Can we all win in this life Raul? And these are the same people we’ve been telling for years to save as much money as you can, the system isn’t working in your favor. Perhaps you shouldn’t have bought a house in the past ten years but booooy you couldn’t resist those low low interest rates huh? 2008 was a learning moment, and many people decided not to learn the lesson. So if you saved and you’ve been building savings just for a moment like this, who do you screw? The people who saved nothing or the people who understood the game and have been waiting patiently for something like this to occur?
Mr. HouseParticipantMasks Aren’t Enough: Dr. Fauci Says People Should “Probably Use Eye Shields” To Protect Against COVID-19
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Mr. HouseParticipantAny bets on when we get negative interest rates in the United States?
Mr. HouseParticipantPutin invented the virus with a time machine he stole from the united states while joy riding around with donald j trump. The end goal is to demolish the fabulous corprotocracy of the united states so he can then drop the curtain to reveal that the USSR is still a going concern!
Mr. HouseParticipantI concur with Thomas
