Does watching Mrs. Doubtfire for the first time count?

Aren’t rednecks recognized by their un-wokiness, and not by their race? Aren’t there rednecks in every rural county, not just in the South?

If capitalism needs speech, ergo needs inevitability of speech, is capitalism wrong to promote choice, since inevitability of speech isn't supposed to encompass death, which derives from capitalism's stalwart: judgement? Speech is produced by a choice of words. It is inevitable that some words will...

Nick, prome, IC:

Sometimes an argument ad absurdium is just that—absurd. Hope you are having a laugh.

Countries with low vaccination rates and high death rates are getting herd immunity. What a surprise :roll: Yes indeed. The real problem with allowing infection to bring about immunity is the stress it puts on healthcare resources that are ill-prepared for the increased demand for their services.
