There is a measles outbreak in South Carolina. Antivaxxer MAGAts are referring to them as "freedom freckles".
We are doomed.

Re: When you thought people couldn't get more stupid
Oh you Canadians are so naive. Freedom is never free. Freedom freckles are proudly the evidence that some truly partiotic parents are willing to kill their children in the name of true freedom. Or perhaps it obedience to the voice of the wonderfully wise voice of the Secretary of Health, speaking as the chosen servant of G-d.
It is truly interesting times in which we now live.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

No thanks, I don’t care much for measles. I like to avoid them if I can.Bicycle Bill wrote: ↑Sat Dec 13, 2025 9:27 pmWhen you thought people couldn''t get more stupid...

Soon, I’ll post my farewell message. The end is starting to get close. There are many misconceptions about me, and before I go, to live with my ancestors on the steppes, I want to set the record straight.

Does one not get vaccinated against Covid? I've been doing this all wrong . . .
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Re: When you thought people couldn't get more stupid
May be off topic but here it is anyway.
"Why 696 pennies sold for more than $16.7 million" Headline on a Yahool news item. Said the last pennies produced at the government mint at Philadelphia were sold at auction. Some were produced on solid gold blanks.
Any body have the skills to discover if the president or any of his family ended up with a cut from this auction?
I am still getting pennies in change from local merchants in cash transactions

Re: When you thought people couldn't get more stupid
I don't use cash much but a few weeks back I got a super shiny new 2025 penny in change for a cash transaction and I put it aside in the little collection of rocks, acorns, feathers and the 1970 Canadian penny with a sea star on one side that I keep because that's the year of my arrival. I will miss the penny - but then I miss the dial phone on the wall and the TV with only 5 channels.
