Redondo, you ever been to a Kroger?  They may be better out in Calif.  Longest time out here all we had was a Kroger and a Wal-Mart.  Wal-Mart produce was far superior but it is further away and hard to get me into a Wal-Mart.  There is a Tom Thumb now which is more expensive but I'll pay more to not have to go to Kroger unless for beer. Kroger makes plenty of money and they are a shit hole.  If all you need is the L in BLT it will be wilted. I doubt most people here go to Kroger anyway so shut 'em down. 

I don't believe I've ever been to one

I've been to Ralph's and Smiths which are affiliated with Kroger

I believe this crowd is more Whole Foods and Trader Joes. The broke libs probably use Aldi

No dude, Kroger's really bad if you like eating good food, don't matter if you are a commie or an Oath Keeper.

Anyone who makes fun of someone for being poor is a c*nt 

You just called several people here a c*nt fyi

[Kotchman]

Didn't intend to offend anyone. My point was libs tend to be virtue signaling elitists or low earning households. The first group general seeks social approval and the low income group seeks other people's money.Both groups have a general disdain for middle class Americans that earned their living and want to keep their earnings.

I wasn't shaming the poor. I have been poor. In 2002, I made $200 a week with a family. Post housing was provided but that is still pretty poor.  I remember counting quarters buy diapers. I also remember swearing to never have to do that again. All it takes is a little hard work and a disciplined budget. Most poor people today can improve their situation with a some effort. This country is so great an uneducated redneck like me can earn a decent living. 15 years after counting change for essentials, my monthly wages exceeded my yearly wages in 2002. Too many people are afraid of hard work and like to make excuses.

Some pretty big regions there. "Americas" includes a lot of territory.

But definitely spiking in SE Asia which is not good news.

That it's really catching on in India is not good news at all.  Yesterday, 275,000 new cases in India.  That's over 1/3 of the 710,000 worldwide cases yesterday.  

They are already saying that there are some distinct strains there that are popping up around the world.

CDC now says that disinfecting surfaces is irrelevant.

Remember the beginning of this pandemic when people were terrified the virus would get them if they didn't wipe down every damn thing?

Good times.

They almost gave @fishbulb several heart attacks over the past year.

Whole thing was a joke.

Don’t be fat, don’t be vitamin/immune deficient, and if you have underlying conditions then stay home.

The whole thing was botched and a shit ton of misinformation.

Let's not get carried away here.  

They never said if you have underlying conditions to stay home.  They just told everyone to stay home.

Haven't they been saying the risk of surface transmission was minimal for a long ass time?

Early models of transmission showed that airborne was the way this virus was spread. There was almost no other way to explain the way it would take off.

A lot more simple than the misinformation everyone was spouting and causing ridiculous lockdowns and mismanagement.
