Thanksgiving and Christmas are not worth it this year and it has nothing to with the Covid.



What do we have to be thankful for when democracy died this past election day with the cheating and Jesus has been shown the door by the anarchists on the streets and the people that support them.

1) A massive increase in travel will expand the virus across the United States. As a result more states and areas will be infected.
2) Hospital beds are running out in many states, and the need to triage patients or deny treatment may be put into place.
3) Cold and flu season has started and will also spread along with the coronavirus. In 2019 alone, over 400k people were hospitalized from the flu. That means hundreds of thousands beds will not be available for COVID patients because they are treating people with the flu.
This is why the scientific community is warning people not to go out for the Holidays. It is to prevent the system from collapsing, not some deep state takeover.
So nobody has invited you over for the Holidays ,shame ,just like last year.

I think it's still possible to enjoy the holidays without parties and lots of people. I guess i feel lucky that i'm an introvert.

Do yourself a favor and turn off your television.
Did you miss the part about hospitals already being overrun? Let's see how well you like it when you need to go to the hospital for some other kind of emergency and at best, they stick you out in a hallway waiting 24-36 hours before a doctor sees you?

Oh, a state that lets adults think for themselves! Don't let that secret out!

Well, that is gloomy! The election is not over, and they always cheat, just not to this great of extend. As far as "Jesus", I won't go there. But, have faith in the system until it is proven a failure, as election fraud is being investigated, and I think looking promising.

The sad thing is that during the early part of the pandemic (plandemic), medications for psychological medications went up 30%. Suicides skyrocketed as people could not deal with the isolation, although some of that 30% in drugs for depression and anxiety have a side effect of possible suicide. MSM is playing them, and trying to play us all. They are trying to distract from what is going on politically, and many aren't buying it. I just cannot imagine locking myself away after reading everything available on the internet early on regarding the "plandemic". This won't be the last one, and if we don't take back normal soon, it will be gone. Other than these Democratic states/cities, I think most people are relaxed about the situation and going on with their lives. We should always take some precautions against becoming ill anyway.

Believing what the CDC says?

Many are trying unless they live in one of the states that is not allowing it, and even then, many are rebelling. Most of the Dem governors want a position in the fictional Biden administration, thus they want to show that they can bully the residents to make an impression that they would be a good fit for his fictional administration.

This sounds more like our state despot, Jay Inslee, who decided to prohibit family gatherings within households because it might spread covid 19. The fatality rate for the coronavirus in the United States is 2.2%.

Canceling Thanksgiving and Christmas because you have a very small chance of dying from covid would be like never crossing the street again because you might get hit by a car.
