Right. I should have acknowledged all those instances of Conservative protestors attacking the police.

I like the softer, gentler @weepaws Keep doing your thing, brother.

There’s no such “accepted medical fact.” None. You made that up. There were numerous studies during and after Covid that pointed to masks being ineffective. Here’s one. Took me all of 5 seconds to find it. The stidy found “little to no” evidence that masking at the population level reduced COVID infections, concluding that there is “uncertainty about the effects of face masks.” That result held when the researchers compared surgical masks with N95 masks, and when they compared surgical masks with nothing. There are more. But I’m sure at this point you’ll find fault with the source, or some other nonsense you pull on a regular basis. How about you do some work for a change and produce a study that shows masks worked. Shouldn’t be hard to find if it’s accepted medical fact. The burden of proof should be on you and the other authoritarian bastarrds out there wanting to restrict freedoms and shut down commerce. Follow the science. Isn’t that what you assshats say?

And I wouldn’t expect an idiot like you to understand that the vast majority of people out there still wearing masks, such as the one alone in the park and the subject of this thread, aren’t in fact doing it to protect others. Focking idiot. More important for you to feel superior than it is to use your common sense.

'Twisters' whips up lessons for Disney and far-left Hollywood By Douglas MacKinnon With then-Tropical Storm Debby moving off and up the west coast of Florida, I convinced my wife that it was the perfect time to see the movie "Twisters" again. I surmised that with wind gusts consistently over 40 mph and torrential rain, we would have the movie theater to ourselves. Boy, was I wrong. A full two weeks after the movie’s release, the theater was sold out. As we quickly grabbed two seats with more people flowing in by the second, I began to talk to the people around me as we waited for the previews. I spoke with two families and three couples. My question being: "What brings you out to this movie in this weather?" Five of the people gave me a variation of the same answer: "No politics. No lectures from the left. Just word of mouth that it is great entertainment." All true. Again, my wife and I first saw the film two weeks ago when it premiered. Like millions of Americans, over the last number of years I have come to dread going to the movies because many are infused with far-left taking points and lectures. Worse, many will openly insult those who don’t agree with their leftist or "woke" narratives. The last time I checked, lecturing and insulting potentially half of your viewing audience was not the best way to create a hit movie or make a profit for your investors. And as we have seen over the last few years, Disney and other liberal to far-left movie studios have seen film after film crash and burn at the box office as they have collectively lost billions of dollars. With "Twisters" being a film dealing with adverse and dangerous weather conditions, I was, at the very least, waiting for the tiresome lecture about "climate change" from those behind the film. It never came. The film has a racially and ethnically diverse cast. Which is wonderful. Not only did I see that as a reflection of America, but of my own greater family which is racially diverse, spiritually diverse, sexually diverse, and even home country diverse. A true and wonderful melting pot of Americans. But Americans who choose to go to the movies to be entertained. Americans who work hard, face constant struggles, and don’t want to pay precious money to see a movie that lectures them or tells them they are intellectually inferior to the far-left directors, actors, producers and writers behind the movie. Lee Isaac Chung, the exceptionally talented director of the film, pushed back hard against far-left criticism that his movie didn’t pound "climate change" at every opportunity. Said Chung, in part: "I just wanted to make sure that with the movie, we don’t ever feel like (it) is putting forward any message. I just don’t feel like films are meant to be message-oriented." Amen, brother. Glen Powell – the co-star of the film led by Daisy Edgar-Jones – addressed some of that counter-productive trend by some in Hollywood in an article for The Telegraph. Said Powell, in part: "Having grown up in and around Texas, I’m aware there are vast parts of America that have been underserved in terms of movies that they want to see. You sort of have New York and Los Angeles making the decisions about what gets made, but there’s a whole lot more audience out there you need to think about." He then very politely cut to the chase with regard to some in his business lecturing or speaking down to their audience: "First and foremost, because if you’re telling people what to think, you’re not allowing them to feel. You can’t put people into that heightened state if they’re thinking, ‘Hmm, do I or do I not agree with this message?’" From his lips to the far-left and "woke" ears of Disney CEO Bob Iger and others in Hollywood who seemingly can’t stand half the people in the United States of America. To his great credit, legendary director and producer Steven Spielberg – who is the executive producer of "Twisters" – does seem to understand Powell’s subtle warning to his industry. And as for Powell and director Chung being on to something, I give you a packed theater showing "Twisters" as a tropical storm played havoc with the weather. A theater that was full because of the word of mouth was: "No politics. No lectures. Just great entertainment." "Word of mouth." Now there's a concept. We will soon see if far-left Hollywood learns that valuable – and profitable – lesson. As they process some unassailable truths, go see the movie "Twisters." It’s made for you.

Might be because focktard, Authoritarian Leftists turned it into a mandate and restricted people’s freedoms. Just heard that in Walz’s Minnesota there was a stay at home order in place all the way in May of 2021. Not May of 2020 - May of 2021. The focking Commie Walz even created a snitch line for residents to report when other residents violated the order. People went to jail. Saw a lady on the news who opened her business and was sentenced to 90 days in jail. She served 2 months, and was a single mother to small children. Cops roaming the streets screaming to people to “Get inside!” and shooting paint pellets at those not complying. Third world dictator shitt right there. So yeah, F’in Ordinary pos, we’ll keep you authoritarian Leftists in check, thank you.

Awww, you mad bro? Such an angry little elf.

Did your brother-in-law miss the part where masks don’t protect the person wearing the mask? They’re designed to protect the mask-wearer from spreading his own illness to others.

How this is allowed to go on in this country is amazing. It’s one thing to open the border, but to intentionally keep violent criminals here is next level violation of the social compact.

Racist pos.

Can’t wait to see this freak show. And oh, the joy!

I guess you could say that her joke bombed.

People are susceptible to cons the first time. Then they learn.

Nice platitudes about good and bad in urban and rural areas. I don’t speak like that anymore. I’d rather speak plainly and tell the truth. I know all about the Left, believe me. I was a hard-core Liberal for most of my life. Went to a fancy Liberal Arts school, summered in Martha’s Vineyard, even talked like a Leftist dooshbag as you do. That all changed. I opened my eyes and realized that the Left is, at its core - selfish, dishonest, and evil. Sorry, no other way to describe it. You focktards have no idea how to live in a healthy, well-functioning community where people work hard, live by the rules, are dedicated to family, and believe in God. The Left is the biggest threat to freedom and truth in the world today, and it’s not even close. Truth.

And the dumbasss is still training and insisting he can help lead a team to a championship. What makes Liberals so focking self-absorbed and delusional? https://www.outkick.com/sports/colin-kaepernick-nfl-return-help-team-win-championship

Damn fine post right there. Honestly, I don’t even mind if a movie has gays in it. Just don’t show them making out. Unless they’re hot girls, then you can show whatever you want. Just keep the political preaching out of it. Climate change doesn’t need to be talked about in a movie about twisters. Sorry, it doesn’t.

Rural folks? God you’re a stereotyping bigot aren’t you? I’ve lived in big cities, suburbs, and yes - rural areas. I’ve lived in the Liberal North and the Conservative South. I can say without hesitation that the worst people in the world are Liberals living in urban areas. Horrible, lousy people.

Trannie tornado.

Fair statement actually.

Congrats. You just lost what little credibility you had left in this forum.

Yeah I have no idea what you are trying to say. Portland and Minneapolis are shittholes if that’s what you are asking.

Exactly. They're scumbags. Destroy the focking country - so long as you stay in power. Horrible, horrible people.

Saying the quiet part out loud.

True to a point. But the track events this year were off the charts spectacular. And those runners are some of the best people on the planet. Trust me, I know several of them. But yeah, the breaking was nonsense if I’m being honest.

Now you’re talking Peenie. Now ask yourself who “they” is. By the way - Sha’Carri is alright. Good hearted kid who’s been through a lot.
