The CDC and pandemic propaganda
By: Ryan Bomberger
This is an excellent example of how CDC propaganda distorts the real story of the covid pandemic and the types of risk involved and the common sense way of mitigating it’s impact. A great article and expose.

The CDC and pandemic propaganda
Ryan Bomberger is the co-founder of The Radiance Foundation. Ahhhh. Barnstable County, Massachusetts. To most Americans, it has no special meaning. But when the CDC strongly “recommended” everyone wear masks indoors based on what happened there this summer, shouldn’t we care about what produced the federal agency’s pandemic response?
The CDC report starts off: “During July 2021, 469 cases of COVID-19 associated with multiple summer events and large public gatherings in a town in Barnstable County , Massachusetts, were identified among Massachusetts residents.”
The first thing that’s odd is that the CDC never mentions the town's name. It’s Provincetown — considered a gay Mecca to tens of thousands of homosexual men and women. In fact, the town’s Chamber of Commerce confirms such a description, stating on its website: “LGBTQA+ visitors are a major component of Provincetown’s tourism economy and continue to make Provincetown one of top GLBT destinations in the world.”
From an epidemiological standpoint, this doesn’t make that town representative of the general population at all.
Never mentioned in the CDC report is the fact that “Bear Week” was the “summer event” at the center of the spread. “Bear Week” is celebrated by Provincetown Tourism as “the largest gathering of bears [hairy and often overweight gay men] in the world” where “tens of thousands come to Provincetown during this annual [July] event.” The website proudly proclaims: “You know what you’re getting into when you attend.” By “ getting into, ” they mean a weeklong orgy among thousands of strangers.
But the CDC won’t tell you this. Instead, the nation’s Centers for Disease Control keeps it a secret by using the phrase “a town in Barnstable County” eight times in four pages. Mainstream media mostly refused to say it too. CBS , for instance, did a 6-minute segment and never mentions LGBT or homosexuality once.
The “news” piece omits the curious fact that 87% of those infected in Provincetown were men, and of course, never reports the weeklong orgy. In the segment, Washington Post reporter Hannah Knowles makes the curious and laughable statement: “This is a story that needed to be taken in context, and not everybody got the context. And some people saw the headlines that were genuinely game changing.” They didn’t provide the context.
Isn’t all of the data regarding a global pandemic relevant? If the CDC is going to issue nationwide “guidance” requiring masks (that even manufacturers declare on the packaging: “do not protect from infection or prevent the spread of diseases”) shouldn’t we be given context? How do you apply behavior in a decidedly skewed demographic to the general population whose behavior is undeniably different than multiple-sex-partner-seeking partygoers (regardless of sexual orientation)? Sorry. Perhaps I should have used the CDC’s description: “adult male participants.”
But the CDC has long held a double-standard when it comes to health, as many medical associations are proudly exhibiting today. The tragic abandonment of medical objectivity has been replaced by political subjectivity. Who benefits from the confusion of language, the denial of basic biology and the deflection of blame?
As a Christian, my heart breaks for those harmed by the world’s fake news, fake health and fake dignity. Love is Love? It’s great marketing, but only God is Love. And that truth is far more enduring than a hashtag sprinkled with broken and co-opted rainbows. Love lifts people out of their circumstances. Ill-defined “love” keeps people where they are and pretends there are no circumstances.
Years ago, when I started researching and reporting on America’s STD epidemic, I quickly noticed the CDC’s capitulation on basic medical facts. The agency’s 2012 report on exponential increases in STDs among homosexual men blamed the high rates of STDs on … homophobia.
So in a society that has radically increased its acceptance of all things LGBTQ, we’re supposed to believe that homophobia explains the increase in infection rates? Rates increased for heterosexuals, too, albeit at far lower numbers. Is that due to heterophobia? Or, could it possibly be personal behavior? As with the evangelists of critical race theory, someone else, some structure, some nebulous systemic evil is always to blame. Personal responsibility is anathema to those pushing poisonous political ideologies.
The CDC continues to promote the “ homophobia ” narrative today as STD rates skyrocket across the country and disproportionately among homosexuals. In 2019 , homosexual males, although only a reported 2% of the American male population, comprised 57% of all syphilis cases in the United States. Gonorrhea rates were 42 times higher among homosexual men than heterosexual men. But don’t worry. The CDC provided cover, saying: “however, increases in rates of reported gonorrhea among MSM (men who have sex with men) appear to have slowed in the past several years.”
Slowed? The rates are still 42 times higher . The CDC goes on to unmedically propagandize: “It is important to note that these disparities are unlikely explained by differences in sexual behavior.”
Oh. So, the sexual activities we engage in have zero bearing on our health outcomes and the demographic disparities that ensue? OK. Sounds very scientific. Why, then, does it matter how we choose to behave regarding COVID? Like STDs, the (inarguably politicized) coronavirus is highly transmissible. But it couldn’t possibly be our behavior that mitigates the spread. It couldn’t be that taking (realistic and evidence-based) precautions might avoid infections.
Then how do you explain a Provincetown “outbreak” of COVID where 87% of the infected were male and 74% of the 469 reported cases were symptomatic and among the fully vaccinated?
The CDC declares on its website that “when kissing or having sex … you are physically close to another person, which can put you in contact with respiratory droplets or saliva that spread the COVID-19 virus.”
The real news is how the CDC missed a golden opportunity to promote its obscured online message of monogamy and abstaining from sex with multiple partners or strangers to minimize risk of infection (which is good advice in or out of a pandemic). But that would be — what’s the word — factual. And we know how much fact-shaming is going around.
Obviously, they were social distancing and practicing safe pandemic protocols in a town in Barnstable County, Massachusetts (Insert eye roll).

So, according to your last meme, your own DNA isn't intact? After all, you say you took the vaccine, but are not posting false anti-vaxx propaganda?
I didn’t get the Johnson and Johnson vaccine because it was developed with the destruction of human child embryos in the process. While I did get vaccinated, I would never dream of making another person do do. Persuade yes, compel no. I also oppose the attempts to make the three common drugs above hard to find in this country.
You're dodging the question regarding the vaccine, and all here can see it.
I dodged nothing.
Of course you did. You posted a meme that implies that the vaccine changes your DNA. You took the vaccine. When called on it, you evaded. Denying your evasion does not negate your evasion.
OK.
So let me ask you an entirely different question-- do you feel that your DNA is intact? Or that its been messed with by doctors and/or other healthcare workers?
I have no idea what it does to it. At my age it seemed the least bad option.
So, take it, but try to misinform others so that they don't take it.
Well done.
another entry for the great commission's highlight reel...
There are science sites online that explain how the different vaccines work.
Seems a shame to protest something one is ignorant of.
It also seems a shame to protest something one has done oneself.
I’m not protesting it. I simply support the rights of those that do to do so. The main point was protesting the lack of availability of the three medications as therapeutics before and after the vaccine became available.
I hate do do.
So do I.
UPDATE:
Caleb Wallace, the co-founder of the San Angelo Freedom Defenders and West Texas Minutemen State Coordinator has died from causes related to COVID-19, according to an update on gofundme by his wife, Jessica Wallace.
“Caleb has peacefully passed on. He will forever live in our hearts and minds❤️,” reads the most recent update on the campaign that was set up to help Wallace’s three children and his wife, a stay-at-home mother who is expecting a fourth child in late September.

Sad news. Nobody wished this to happen to him or anybody else!
Let me get this straight, Jefferson. You do not want 'border-crossers from South of the Border or DACA recipients in the U.S.A.: Or you in support of Afghan refugees landing here in the thousands?
I hope most of the Afghans get resettled in other countries. As long as those who come here are vetted and vaccinated one doze before arrival here I’m fine with them. As to from south of the border the remain in Mexico will be a good first step to stopping the resettling of covid positive illegal aliens in red communities. No unvaccinated foreigner should be allowed entry into the USA.
So why did the CDC hide the community and cause of the Massachusetts outbreak last month?
What the "h" are you asking me about Massachusetts outbreak? I wasn't there. And no one consulted or asked for my opinion about any of it. More to the point, I live in California and this is my first reading about it. My first thought would this:
Do tell Jefferson, you are implying you support same-sex monogamy and letting the sub-culture of male-male bonding fold in on itself?
So you are in support of vetted Afghans coming to the U.S.A. But some conservatives won't agree (vote) for a pathway to citizenship for DACA recipients. Why?
And why are you agreeing to compel Afghans coming to our country to get vaccinated; don't you politicize mandated jabs and masking all across the country?!
I’m not one of them. I favored the Trump compromise of giving outright citizenship to all original DACA recipients and the building of the border wall with its tech components. I will favor that again.
That is what the seeded article is actually about. Did you read it or just look at the pictures in the posts below?
You want to talk about gay bear sex or just be salacious on NT? Where is your common decency? 'Queens' behind bushes and in stalls or hotel rooms rubbing 'parts' with hot oils and creams: I don't get down that way - never was into 'bears.' You? Some conservatives probably could be tagged in videotape there. I can't prove it, but it is probably so. Remember Jerry Falwell Jr. and his "good fun" zipper moment that got him fired from Liberty University?
And what compelled you to put out memes you don't want mentioned?
Jefferson, you are implying you support same-sex monogamy and letting the sub-culture of male-male bonding fold in on itself?
I’m not going to come out in favor of any sex act except between one man and one woman after their marriage to each other. All other sex outside of that is sinful.
Neither. Simply calling out the CDC for its propaganda and for thinking it could mandate restrictions on the rest of us such as mask mandates on the vaccinated based on the massive breakthrough covid cases there that had another explanation
Well, how about if they're unvaccinated-- but take Invermectin instead?
Then, what 'right' do you engage in whataboutisms with "bears" who you won't support finding and cultivating a life-long relationship sanctioned by civil laws?
Are you aware that in God's economy (of Heaven) there is no sexual appetites to express? (HINT: No flesh can enter the Kingdom of God!)
Those gay men were 'brought up' in a society that made them 'outlaws'-thus, generationally, a sub-culture exists. It will take as long as it does to diminish, and when it does mellow down and out it will not be because homosexuals have learned to marry heterosexuals, it will because their are positive reinforcements and benefits for them marrying each other!
As a result, this author and this seeder should not be a busy-body, looking to use one set of people as a foil for committing a separate class of sin: "Self-righteous"-ness.
The trick for you Jefferson, is to not have the "bears" go home more righteous than you and some conservatives who are 'found' wanting and judgemental over a great many things - while omitting a great many things within your sphere of control!
No. Ivermectin is only good for fighting covid after the fact. No foreigners should be allowed into America without the vaccine. No current covid positive foreigners either. Only Biden is a stupid enough donkey to allow that.
[Deleted]
Homosexuals have rights to enjoy this life same as you or me. So some conservatives are simply meddlesome busybodies who have a strong desire to be control freaks.
Ivermectin has no effect on covid-19 before or after the fact.
The only way it can cure one is to kill one. Same for the other two you listed.
But I encourage all Trump supporters to take all three of those "cures".
I stand by everything I said in 3.1.13. Without exception.
Stubborn, eh? Uncompromising and insensitive. God is a great many things, the aforementioned, not so!
[Deleted]
All sinners have the free will right to willfully engage in acts that they know to be sin and wrong, no matter the temptation they are acting upon.
Well, what is your parties PROBLEM? Why so meddlesome all the times? Homosexuals are not political fodder to win (or lose) elections over. That's deceptive. Arguably, not Christ-like!
Why are you conflating my political party position on an issue with my religious belief on an issue? Like I said, there are gays who are politically conservative and Republican too. I would have voted for one for governor of Ca. had Rick Grenell the former DNI chief and ambassador run. He didn’t and Caitlin did. Since Elder got into the race we will have our first African American governor instead.
As to my religious objection to homosexuality and said marriages that is a literalist biblical values issue that I will never yield to the world on.
Speaks for itself!
BS, voting for a gay is condoning their valid existence and their valid lifestyle.
You can do neither according to your own postings
Ding, ding, ding, ding !!!!
It's incoherent. I saw that too. It exposes Jefferson as someone who only wants what some conservatives want irregardless of a display of lack of consistency! It is similar to those homosexuals desperately linking themselves to a political party that hates their 'power' and marginalize them to be acceptable (no identity value) in it.
Is that supposed to be significant to anyone? I doubt anybody cares that you self-profess stubborness.
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I think we all know that you will stick to your beliefs regardless of any facts to the contrary. I also doubt anyone gives a shit having read the same crap now for years.
Confirmation bias and uber-stubborn set-in-ways 'thinking' is truly the perfect cocktail for walking around believing more things that are false than are true.
It depends. Just like in 2016 when the choice was Trump vs Clinton there were enough issues, policies, and behaviors on her part that totally justified voting for Trump, had the man I mentioned actually ran I’d have to weigh him against Newscum and his heinous reign and open anti religion bigotry real behavior and action against an otherwise better choice other than the life style issue. When all of us are fallen sinners and we have to make a choice between two or more flawed persons, it could be that Grenell is the better choice. Fortunately it’s not an issue now and it’s an African American libertarian Republican that’s the better choice.
No it doesn’t! I have religious beliefs that come first in my life that take priority over my political viewpoints. In a government that is set up to be secular operated by a religious people, there are times that on some issues a secular political coalition will include people who have different religious ideas than mine or none at all. That doesn’t mean that on key moral issues religious people can’t advocate for laws with their POV in mind or at least conscience clauses to protect the religious observances and free exercise there of from the majority or from other parts of society with different beliefs/ ideas.
I don't know why you try sometimes...
Nonsense should yield criticism.
Yes but does there come a time that the nonsense doesn't even deserve that.
Only feeding.
There are no facts to the contrary to justify homosexual acts. They were sinful 6,000 years ago, they are sinful now, and will be sinful as long as this world lasts to the end of time.
Nope! It's incoherent. If we are all fallen sinners and you can choose a homosexual to lead a significant state house, but want nothing to do with the man or woman spiritually or not wanting him or her dropping by your home for a 'social' visit—you're inconsistent. Even worse, a user.
More to the point: Some conservatives are not above using Larry Elder's blackness in an attempt to gain votes y'all are concerned otherwise would not come! Wrong black man. Wrong challenger. Wrong recall.
It's manipulative. Funny you should mention "conscience." Trumpism operates conscience-less. It can not advance or get any traction if conscience is allowed. Compassion is not permitted either.
As for allowances, you and some conservatives want power, influence, and an over-abundance of freedoms and liberties, while you siphon off the rights and privileges of your fellow Americans. Even worse, you demonize, gaslight, and delude yourselves into believing that it is your right to 'monkey around' with the rights and privileges of others. That's filthy greed. It is not Christ-like at any juncture.
(Now, time for coffee!)
You can't get all Jewish people or Christians to agree with that statement. So, on what basis do you make it? If you are so hard-pressed to live the life of an Ancient Israelite or a First-century Christian—take a slow frigate back into time. Be my guess. Those sights and smells along the journey backward -might convince you of the error of living out of step with the world you are in presently.
As far as sinning goes, you still are a purveyor for the sin of lying and liars in the person of Donald Trump. It's inconsistent. It's self-righteous. It invalidates everything you write. It speaks volumes.
That is just religious bigotry; no reasoned consideration, just mindless acceptance of the mores & customs of ancient men.
To illustrate the absurdity of your position. Slavery is okay per the Bible; you okay with slavery? God, per the Bible, certainly is.
According to whom? Some ancient men with pens? And based on what rationale?
Sin is sin is sin . Past , present, and future. Gods law doesn’t change just because mankind like in the days of Babel thinks we now know better than He.
As usual you ignore the question and just blab away
. The question was:
So, with this:
Slavery per your ' logic ' is okay. See any fundamental problems with your reasoning?
(In blue.) I guess that makes me a "chaste" homosexual "courageous, set apart, and praiseworthy? /s.
The problem I have with this 'dissertation' is it is likely coming from some 'guy' who is smart with words but not living under any passion for which he is pontificating.
Oh, and throwing up an image of what Jesus likely did not look like is a nice touch, but it conveys nothing to the substance of the message being delivered. It should be "X"ed out. I am "pretty sure" Jesus did not look like this vain image. Though 'comforting' it is par and parcel a farce. (We have no true photo or genuine drawings of the real Jesus.)
Homosexuals in a church which does not want them there should leave that church. And seek a welcoming church. Or, just keep counsel and visitation with God in their own hearts and associations with others of like-mindedness.
It is enough to stop arguing with STRAIGHT Christians who can not tolerate the presence of active homosexuals, as if homosexuality is contagious. Enough begging to be "in" those groups of believers. Let them have their own churches. Go make 'room' for yourselves (in other or start your own churches. . . and vote accordingly!)
What is necessary is that homosexuals who live a chaste lifestyle choose to do so under their own power or through the leading of Spirit.
This is not a game.
Asking anybody to live a lifetime, counting day for day, in misery and loneliness and on the outside of society, is cold-bloodied doctrine that is unacceptable even when it uses "scented" word delivery.
While I’m not a Catholic and disagree with them on several matters, when it comes to abortion and gay issues, they have it right.
Okay: Why?! Your "exactly right" reply is found wanting!
Incidentally, do you disagree with Catholics on the use of images of divine beings? I ask this, because as you might eventually get around to understanding, had it been part of Jesus' mission to have the world know what he looked like in flesh, he would have commissioned a disciple to draw an illustration for all time. Jesus did not lack foresight! He did not do it.
So why do you have a fake image of a divine being in your comment?! Step up your spiritual development now!
IMO, all you will get is a declaration of "exactly right". A cogent, rational personal explanation of why it is "exactly right" is almost assuredly not going to come.
And yet it is some conservatives who say democrats are on a so-called, "plantation" mentality. Or, who delve into feelings too deeply. Jefferson is an embodiment of hodge-podge emotionally-charged thinking.
Merely your opinion which lacks any rational explanation.
My opinion is the very definition of rational explanation.
Says somebody who can't be bothered to explain why or how he forms opinions. I guess, you are just too busy with all the 'tending to' required on your multiple social media platforms.
You didn't offer any rational explanation. Just an empty declaration. Try again!
I have no objections to drawings of Jesus. I do object to graven images in the form of icons and idols. Those are in my opinion a violation of the 2nd commandment that is excluded from Catholic Bibles. No one should worship or bow down to any graven image.
What's the difference? One man's Jesus is another man's idol. And vice versa.
That's a matter of individual choice, now isn't it? Just as no one should worship or bow down before your god/Jesus if they choose not to.
I’m not here to entertain the rationalizations of the committed anti theists here. Since you are lost to any effort of persuasion there is no point debating or discussing any topic with them that could touch upon religion.
like the image of Donald Trump? /s
I’m not discussing religious theological differences among Christians such as CB and I might have with an atheist.
Oh so we’re back on politics here. We don’t say democrats are on a plantation. We say that the democrat party is the plantation. We praise people who have traditionally been trapped there like myself and more lately who have walked away from it. As to emotions, mine are in the broad mainstream of normal human emotions.
You making claims is not the art of persuasion. It is a blunt instrument based on beliefs sans (and in contradiction of) facts.
I have been here since early 2015, Political forum since 2019, and newsvine since 2009-2015, MSN politics 2007-9 and AOL Politics boards since 1998-07 and expressed my opinions and beliefs and why I hold them enough times that no one needs them explained yet again.
did you count yourself as your own (lone) follower in all those other places too?
unless, apparently for the last 41 years, that graven image is the leader of the republican party...
It's an icon and idol. Because you use it to console you. It is not Jesus; there is no image of Jesus fit to console you. You must object to it. But, you can't. You are 'grown' up on it. Time for some refreshing in the truth, Jefferson!
Perhaps because you can't provide a rational argument!
Whatever that means. Even so I wrote, "on a so-called, 'plantation" mentality' which one can not literally be "on" so that is, well, understood.
Jefferson, some conservatives have aligned yourselves with an amoral political party guilty of repeated attempts and offenses of removing and erasing the rights and privileges of your fellow citizens to satisfy and satiate your own political appetites. The truth is not in some conservatives when you suggest or flatly state it is a model of Jesus, the Christ that some conservatives act out.
What are normal human emotions, anyway? Would you feel comfortable specifying them?
Please spare me the sanctimonious "cow patty." If you're tired of the art of opining: Just hang up your cleats, turn off the stage lights, call it a done deal, and retire your handle. Otherwise, if you want to be regarded as a serious thinker or 'robust' online character lackadaisical lapseness simply won't measure up!!!
If you are about to waste time 'clockin whataboutisms' remember that's a tactic that expressly solves nothing. Liberal democrats in general want conservative republicans to adhere to compromise and be a part of a culturally inclusive U.S.A. dedicated to service of the nation and good stewards of our world. Right now, republicans are holding up divisive and combatic rhetoric as a new standard and dangerous health practices designed to fracture statecraft and cause distrust in career experts in all realms of professional life. That is bad.
Don't comprehend it that way? Then, begin to illustrate how republicans and conservatives can be more inclusive and less divisive and supply missing liberties and privileges to those who lack by commission or omission.
A vague reference. Let's not waste time on some insignificant point! You offer a claim: Validate your claim.
And:
Prove liberal democrats do not want to be a part of a culturally inclusive U.S.A. dedicated to service of the nation and good stewards of our world.
Try this current 'event on for size: A liberty of abortion rights removed for women and girls in Texas for all intents and purposes, and a privilege of not mandating some rapist's spawn be carried to term-especially without the 'pleasure' of making said rapist officially daddy for life.
Not remotely on topic here, but you asked! Maybe Jefferson will indulge you (and obliquely me) in a mutually shared political demand.
Of course, I have heard of the "infrastructure bill" and its adjacent ("human infrastructure) bill. So why did you not pony up the second bill along with the first in your comment from the beginning. After-all this is digital 'ink' anyway and you were typing already.
We have a bi-partisan bill voted and passed out of the senate and appropriately Nancy Pelosi can run her 'house' any way she wishes irrespective of conservative 'beef' over it. So miss me with your cow patty.
Deal with my quote you 'pulled' out for discussion or drop out of discussion with me!
IMPASSE.
Sorry but there is nothing about your theology or ideology that I or my moral and ideological values can buy into. Feel free to disagree as it’s a free country but I’m not going to buy into the idea that we can know something is wrong, do it anyway because if feels good, deny that it was ever wrong in the first place, and expect God to be ok with it.
Read the seeded article. It’s all there. Bear week and off the charts breakthrough covid cases among the vaccinated as a result of behaviors.
I think it’s time to ask for his 🏳now.
You don't know Jack remember? So how would you know it "feels good"? Careful, let's you share too much.
And, God certainly does not like fake Christians or those who think they are "suchy much" that they can hold a fake worldview that God needs them/him/her to solve issues of the Cosmos.
And of all the dumb ass characters in this 'universe' some conservatives could have submitted as a choice for God's 'hope' for humanity y'all chose/choose Donald J. Trump?! God ain't with Donald J. Trump and that some conservatives are not discerning of that is disturbing. But, carry on. I would love to be there when the scales fall from y'all's eyes.
Donald J. Trump can't believe his 'luck.' A whole party falling for his grand delusion as a 'strong man.' Donald Trump: A man's man.—NOT!
Trump was a far better choice than either Hillary or creepy Joe!
Donald J. Trump is a disloyal citizen aberration of the U.S. of A. An amoral man. How can some conservatives support that and be moral? Are y;all conflicted at least? Consciences seared?
First, your report is from 2012. Note that. Got more up to date figures? Second, some conservatives and conservatives have been messing with Blacks and homosexuals all their generations. And, sitting on your white privilege to develop in a mainline culture and enjoy few impediments (which some conservatives incessantly gripe and moan are being stripped from them simply because they can't control other groups like the good old days), you have your wives and children and wealth to fall back on in old age. While you work tirelessly to reconstitute the subcultures Blacks and homosexuals are just recently managing to dig themselves out of!
Of course, Blacks are 'ass-backwards' as a collective. Conservatives are presently continuing the mission to see to that. Albeit, Blacks are incrementally getting more of their due. Of course, homosexuals had no approved sexual 'outlet' that society as a whole permitted until recently. The sub-culture existed to sneak around and be promiscuous. Marriage was not an option recognized by the state for homosexuals. Thus, in lieu, 'playing the field' was all that was left to men who sought to be with other men.
Let's 'roll' Jefferson. If you really want to talk about 'it' bring it on.
You realize that there are conservatives among both the Black and the Gay populations in this country.
Yes! And you say that to 'dispel' or establish what? Please elaborate. (As, I also realize that there are 'black' Trumps in this country. Let's start with California candidate for recall Gov: Larry Elder.)
You are the one who made a sweeping generalization of conservatives so I simply pointed out that we are not monolithic and are inclusive having both demographics among us.
Our next governor that I voted for along with yes on the recall. Still have to drop it off at the local county election office since I’ll be out of town Election Day.
Are Senator Tim Cotton and former HUD Secretary Ben Carlson (two Black conservatives, I suppose heterosexuals) for or against same sex marriages? Do you know?
Do I have to run down a list of black (some) conservatives checking their position on homosexual marriage for you (I wouldn't do it anyway)?
I voted No on the recall. Larry Elder can pack sand as far as I am concerned. I didn't like him from way-back. You can have him-especially away from the governor's office. I sure hope democrats don't fall for . . . him. Hmph!
Democrats would have to vote yes on the recall in order to have a vote on the replacement. State Sen. Gaines and Assemblyman Kiley are from Jefferson territory east of Sacramento and I like them but I went with Elder.
Sen. Cotton is white. Sen. Tim Scott (South Carolina) is African American. Don’t forget Clarence Thomas of the Supreme Court, congressmen Burgess Owens Utah and Byron Donalds of Florida come to mind.
For or against same sex marriages? Do you know?
Thanks for the name check! Senator Tim Scott.
Far more African Americans are more opposed to gay marriage than Caucasian Americans are.
'Sweep' around your own front door. My 'door' accepts people where they are as long as it causes no harm to another. Do what you can to be a good person in your own right. Get that part right and you won't have to be pointing fingers at the masses of others who need to get it together for themselves. That is, you are individually responsible for being a meddlesome busy-body.
You know Scott and Carlson-'party platformers' are both against same-sex marriage. You don't have to divulge it if you don't want. I will just presume it.
So... If, as you've said, you're vaccinated and advocate vaccination, why do you continue to post this crap?
It’s not crap. It’s about an outbreak of and among the fully vaccinated that was caused by dangerous behavior anytime much less during a pandemic. Where else besides a multi person week long sexual orgy have we seen this kind of outbreak among the vaccinated. What happened here can not be used by government as a tool or excuse to try to control or limit the freedom of the rest of us.
When stupid people do stupid stuff it's bad for all of us. You so desperately want to point out that the government isn't calling gay people out by name that you can't resist the temptation to post this drivel. The real question should be what can we do about it? How do we get more shots into more arms? Disparaging the CDC and posting memes implying that vaccines somehow alter our DNA certainly doesn't help. You proudly call yourself a Christian but you are working on the side of evil with this crap.
Almost all these orgy participants had both jabs and got covid anyway.
These homosexuals did not get the virus from vaccinations; they got it from unvaccinated folks 'blended' into the venue. Not hard to do! Blend in, that is. And yes, I'd imagine the same happens in heterosexual 'blending' venues too. That is, unvaccinated people are involved.
Lol well given your expertise and experience in pushing your own propaganda I guess we'll have to let you have this one.....Nah let's not.
That you consider people who express views similar to mine as propaganda is not my issue.
Nice strawman but my post had nothing to do with others, just you. Thanks for continuing to entertain us
Living a healthy literalist Christian lifestyle is the surest way for the vaccinated to stay safe through the pandemic and life in general.
How so? Do Christians wear masks in crowds, as directed by the Bible?
Do they avoid crowds, because Jesus told them to do so?
Is a crowded church somehow exempt from the spread of pathogens?
Do you live a literalist Christian lifestyle or do you support a 'superior' attitude and forsaking humility? As if God can not see what is really in the heart!
I do not believe that following the Bible literally as we believe we are is a “superior” attitude nor is it “forsaking” humanity. Quite the opposite. Christians are called to missions beyond the great commission as part of it. To witness to others by alleviating human suffering with food banks, aid to the poor, sheltering the homeless, ministering to those in prison/jail, provide medical clinics and hospitals, educate in areas that can change lives, provide disaster relief, water, economic micro loans, lifting people up everywhere. These works are far more effective than preaching alone. We are part of this world now but we are to live lives apart from it. Many churches members have left the biggest cities except the most committed and dedicated determined to witness through the above there. God does see what is on the heart.
And how are you living apart from the world, when you support manipulative and coercive politics and policies to disadvantage people's rights to vote expansion? How are you supporting alleviating human suffering when you support politics and policies which leave DACA recipients (who only know and love this country above all other lands) without a certain future in this country? How are you sheltering the homeless when you support politics and policies which will make million more homeless idue to conservative opposition to congressional action to keep people safe with a roof over their heads during a continuing pandemic?
Finally, God does see what is in the heart of Donald Trump: And, you can see what Donald 's actions are! Yet, here you are stubbornly supporting that disruptive man for a 'repeat.'
I will not be questioned as to the content of my heart or the value of what I do or contribute to to help others by any other mortal. The fact that my political opinions are what they are and different does not lessen the value of what others receive as a result of my efforts or contributions.
Yeah, that's full of bully patty! Some conservatives can be questioned just like anybody else. Retreating to a "self-righteous" safe space when some conservatives can't cope with reality or truth is trying to find their disaffected consciences won't work. Truth is going to find you out. God knows some conservatives are meddlesome, busy-bodies misappropriating truth for their own selfish purposes! And as to "mortals" being able to convey something to you; get over it. Mere mortals are all you got to communicate with in these trying times.
These are very trying times made more so by the secular progressive left and blue city and blue State Orwellian dystopia. As to communicating, we can commune with God. He’s who gets us through trying times.
God is Spirit. Have you figured out (yet) that spirit has no gender you are equipped to name at-known discuss? Bible says: God is not a man.that God should lie. . . Donald Trump is a man and a brazen liar; you willingly commune with him.
