Protesting against the lockdown is more important than protesting alleged police brutality as a pretense to riot and loot to bring about a Marxist agenda.

:lol: @Hindsite Only a short time ago you were arguing that everyone should get back to work, because Covid-19 wasn't really a danger to most people. You can't have it both ways!

Marxist Agenda? :roll: Is your tin foil hat on too tight?

Whenever the racists find they don't have an argument, oit goes back to conspiracy theories about non-existent Marxism in the USA.

There you go again with your racist conspiracy theory. While membership of orthodox Stalinist, Trotskyist and Maoist organisations within the United States is low and was low even prior to the collapse of the Soviet Union, Marxist ideas, methods and attitudes are endemic in the United States and in the West generally. The Liberal is typically very weak on science and generally highly ignorant and so is drawn to conspiracy theories such as the Trump Russia conspiracy theory, or the 9/11 was an inside job and had nothing to do with Muslims conspiracy theory. The Liberal is therefore prone to project his / her primitive forms of thinking on to others.

While I don't have first hand knowledge about modern American radical politics, I do have first hand knowledge of radical left British politics from the late, eighties and nineties.

So I personally knew people who were, or had been members of the Workers Revolutionary Party, The Militant Tendency, The Socialist Workers Party, Socialist Organiser, Labour Briefing, The Workers Socialist League, Class War, The Direct Action Movement, The Anarchist Communist Federation, The Anarchist Workers Group, The New Communist Party, The Communist Party (Britain) Marxist Leninism, Proletarian, The Labour Party Young Socialists, The Anti Poll Tax Campaign, Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, Cruise Watch, The Miners Support Groups, The anti Clause 28 Campaign (Can't remember its proper name), Time To Go, The Anti Nazi League, Anti Fascist Action, the Anti Apartheid Movement and The Peace Convoy.

I also spoke to people who were or had been members of the Communist Party, The Revolutionary Communist Party, The international Marxist Group, Workers Power, Radical Chains and the Spartacus League.

There were many links between these groups to radical left groups in the United States and other countries. I know how small or even tiny groups of dedicated extremists can lead and manipulate quite sizeable mass movements and campaigns. So when I talk about Marxism and Cultural Marxism I do actually know something about what I'm talking about.

Cultural Marxism is the conspiracy theory, and you were summoned as if I'd said your name in the mirror, 5 times. :lol:

No. You're talking rubbish, and you can name as many little Marxist groups that you want, and that still doesn't mean they have one iota of power, or legitimacy. :knife:

President Trump and his supporters, like me, plan to keep it that way even if it takes military action to do it.

Marxism in the USA is about as powerful and real as the Sasquatch or Canadian Invasion plans for Hollywood. :lol:

Wasting effort and thought to something as real as that, is a waste of time, and intelligence.

George Floyd was given a send off that was comparable to a head of state. Floyd's funeral reminded me of the drawn out media spectical and over the top funeral that was given to John McCain's funeral.


Burials without funerals, grief without hugs: Coronavirus is changing how we say goodbye

For many, a funeral is a ritual of loss and connection where we remember the dead and comfort the living. But the coronavirus outbreak has altered that ritual and changed the way we say goodbye: the loss remains, the connections change.

Nancy Farley gets together with her family for a virtual wake on her laptop to mark the death of Mike Farley, her husband of 59 years. Mike Farley, 87, died in a Denver hospital on March 23, 2020, with family not permitted to be at his side. The coronavirus outbreak is changing how we grieve, including the way funerals are handled.

Gone are huge public funerals and wakes in funeral homes filled with mourners who cry and laugh, linger and reminisce. In their place across much of the country are family-only funeral home visitations of 10 or fewer, livestreamed memorials and plans to gather when the world gets back to normal.


CDC Funeral Guidance for Individuals and Families

To help prevent the spread of COVID-19 in communities, changes need to be made to the way funerals, visitations, and memorials to the deceased are held. This guidance provides strategies to protect yourself and others when you are grieving the loss of a loved one, supporting each other, making funeral arrangements, and participating in funeral services and visitations. Some examples include:

1. Using technology to connect virtually with family and friends during the grieving process.
2. Considering modified funeral arrangements, such as limiting attendance at funerals held during shortly after the time of death to a small number of immediate family members and friends; and then holding additional memorial services when social distancing guidelines are less restrictive.
3. Practicing social distancing by maintaining at least 6 feet between attendees, facility staff, and clergy or officiants when small, in-person services are held.
4. Considering modifications to funeral rites and rituals (for example, avoid touching the deceased person’s body or personal belongings or other ceremonial objects) to make sure of everyone’s safety.
5. Wearing cloth face coverings while around others and outside of your home.


But none of the CDC guidelines or "new rules" articles from the legacy media applied to the funeral of Goerge Floyd. He had a very large funeral procession, with hundreds of people who weren't social distancing.

It seems like it would be a human right for a family to be able to grieve the loss of a loved one with dignity. I suppose now things are starting to go back to normal and people can start having regular funerals like George Floyd's family and friends?

How resentful and petty do you have to be to complain about the lack of social distancing at George Floyd's funeral?

I mean, we expect basic bitch conservatives to disingenuously complain that BLM protesters aren't following the guidelines (even though they probably supported the anti-shutdown protests a few weeks prior), but it's some next level Nazi shit to be going after the funeral.

It is just pointing out the hypocrisy of the Left-wing Democrats.

Cultural Marxism doesn't mean anything. It's a made up term glommed onto by rightwing grifters and only signifies that the user is a moron who consumes bullshit by the likes of Jordan Peterson, Shapiro, and a thousand lesser known people who must constantly push the hate envelope to keep their audience.

It's purposely vague in the sameway our own resident nazi-affiliates just call everyone they dislike AntiFa.

None of these protestors know how many unarmed black people are killed by cops in an average year. When asked they say they don't know exactly but it's gotta be in the thousands. :lol: You'd think if you're gonna go protest something you'd take at least a minute to do a quick google but nope, there are hundreds of thousands of fuckwits marching through the streets without even an inkling of clue about why.


Why is everything such a fucking travesty with you people? :lol:

You never let the fact that you don't know what you're talking about stop you from chiming in. Please take your own advice and stop posting.

Look the Liberals really have shown them up us the most raving hypocrites. Very few of us said that there mustn't be any changes to behaviour, to deal with the Xi virus bio weapon attack against us. Very few of us said there must be absolutely no change to behaviour from normal. Very few of us said that even slowing down the spread of the Xi virus to stop health services being overwhelmed could not be countenanced. it was a question of balance, not destroying the economy, wrecking children's education and development for pointless virtue signalling rules that had little effect on stopping the spread.

Rioting is the absolute worst thing for spreading a virus and its the absolute worst thing for stretching health and other services. Are Liberals so retarded that they can't see that? I think not, the problem is so many Liberals are totally unself-disciplined narcissists who are incapable of keeping to the extreme lock down's they have pushed for. The riots and demonstrations are just their dishonest way of making an excuse for not following the lock down they demanded.

You have been telling Liberals/lefties/libtards/commies/etc. to get back to work and stop making excuses, so you can save the economy. Make up your fucking mind. It's either safe or it isn't, and they shouldn't be out there, but since you don't want them to protest because you're a racist, you try to pretend you care about the spread of Coronavirus. Fake outrage and throw in your typical conspiracy theory on top. :lol:

Are all right-wingers raving lunatics who want people to do something and when they do they get angry at them?
