@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social Ok so are you still saying flu is dead or are you taking that back and saying you were incorrect?

@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social

You claimed earlier COVID stopped the flu and it was cured.. now your saying what the medical community says, that masks wont cure it only reduce the numbers and COVID has continued to kill along with the flu.

So now your saying what I kept saying but you kept disagreeing with... which is it?

@pthenq1

@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social

Yes we all know the tragic deaths caused by COVID, I though you were talking about the flu... stay on topic.

@pthenq1

@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social

It was reduced when we were all in lockdown and wearing masks, as we expected it to... thats not the same as "cured"... what are you even on about.

@pthenq1

@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social

Dude you are making this shit up..

I already showed you the who data of Flu cases which are still very much a thing and not "stopped"... now your talking about death.

The WHo numbers also continue to show people die from the flu, here is a link of the weekly report including flu deaths and as you can clearly see they are reporting flu deaths every week up to and including this one:

https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/index.htm

What your saying has no basis in reality.

@pthenq1

@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social

In fact here is a chart from the WHO showing recorded flu cases every week in 2020 and 2021. As you can clearly see the numbers are reduced from normal but not stopped or at 0.

@pthenq1

@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social

What? Thats not remotely true.. The WHO of course has shown a reduced number of flu cases.. but stopped at 0, no that isnt what the WHO or their data claims.

@pthenq1

@zpartacoos what are you trading and what sort of approach or strategy you thinking about?

@BernieWonIowa

also agree. Dude never once showed remorse either, just excuses

@trinsec

@BernieWonIowa I more or less agree.

@swiley So your not a post-birth abortion supporter?

I support post-birth #abortions, who is with me?

@lupyuen You guys probably have all the best fruits!

@TruthAndFreedom@masthead.social

Not sure what you mean by "stopped the flu".. if you are refering to the fact that significant lockdowns, social distancing, and masks, has not only significantly reduced cases of COVID but also other diseases that are transmitting in a similar manner, then yea, of course, thats of course to be expected.

@pthenq1

@icedquinn To some degree you are correct, the origin of the theory is that if crime, however minor, is seen by the general public then it encourages more significant crime to be carried out.

The target of proponents isnt so much "lets clean up graffiti and broken windows" but rather more along the lines of "lets arrest people who commit minor crimes because the public will witness that, including arresting people who commit graffitti, break windows, jay walk, speed"... in other words it promotes the lazy approach of cops focusing on small crimes that are done in public view or easily inferred by the public and putting less priority on crimes that are carried out in a more secretive (and thus harder to catch) fashion, which goes hand in hand with more serious crime.

Moreover the philosophy has changed a lot in its life, while originally the discussion was around obvious signs of crime like graffitti and such it has evolved to be used in a context that is more encapsulating of minor crime vs major crime, in that focusing on easier to handle minor crime they can prevent major crime with a fraction of the effort.

@trinsec Agreed. He deserves the book thrown at him.

@icedquinn My stance here is that minor offenses should be deprioritized in comparison with more significant offenses. Especially when those minor offenses do not directly cause harm to persons or property.

So that means deprioritizing the sorts of things most police man hours goes into such as minor traffic stops, drug users, jay walking, whatever (which is often used as an excuse to search vehicles and other attempts to find more serious crimes that they dont directly suspect). You will generally find real crimes that require some degree of investigation is often ignored.
