Y'all have been running that rabbit for a while now. Since it really doesn't fit the thread topic that well, do you think you could cool it for a while? Go start a 'Trump vs Biden' thread and castigate each other there...

Regarding virus...
shops and businesses close for a couple of weeks and people thinks its a conspiracy theory to undermine the economy. the thing is if a business is adaptable it will bounce back, that the thing about businesses if you know the first thing about running one, it involves a certain amount of risk you dont put all your eggs in one basket. you also dont assume all your workers dont need a break every now and then or you will run it to the ground. The way some people run their businesses, they actually undermine their own business!
witness the complete collapse of Motown or detroit when the car industry didnt adapt or innovate to new technology.

the other silly conspiracy theory running round is that china is the enemy, not the virus. Often this is stated by americans who are kinda paranoid that all other countries are their enemies. But little known fact is that the 1918 flu pandemic was traced back to swine and poultry farms in Kansas. then it spread round the world killing more than 50 million people. But you dont hear of other countries blaming the US.

a lot of people just wanna pass the buck and play the blame game, just like adam did. christians are not supposed to do that so its kinda weird that so many christians on this forum seem to. Maybe they are not born again...who knows.

China that knowingly let the virus out is the enemy, and the virus they let out is the enemy.

China is the enemy, a evil dictatorship, of oppression upon it's people

1 Million Muslims imprisoned, (Social Scores) using credit card spending, internet search history, facial recognition, 200+ million surveilence cameras everywhere.

Low social scores restrict travel, housing, work, and the ability to survive under the communist regime.

Very interesting read. Coming from a secular position, but I think he’s pretty spot on:

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/election-2020-worst-case-scenario-most-likely-one
The guy that runs zero hedge seen below was born in Bulgaria, he was banned from stock trading in New York for insider trading, his father worked with the Soviets in Bulgaria and appeared to be commie leaning?, that's what my 30 min search found?

Wikipedia: Daniel Ivandjiiski (Bulgarian: Данаил Иванджийски, born 8 November 1978) is a Bulgarian-born, U.S.-based former investment banker and capital-markets trader, and currently financial blogger, who founded the website Zero Hedge in January 2009, and remains its publisher and main editor.

Just to add to what was missed, I fully believe we will see civil unrest in Nov, this current unrest is just a preview of what's coming.

I believe there will be crys of foul on both sides, it will be reviewed immediately by the US Supreme Court, and life continues on

Are global elites involved, absolutely, George Soros, Tom Dryer, Michael Bloomberg, to mention a few, no secret there.

I don't believe the Trump cabinet is packed with (Globalist) as the article stated, just the opposite in my opinion, they have done took much to oppose globalism in trade, etc

However if the civil unrest gets out of hand, it could be civil war, with the conservatives having the forces needed to maintain law and order

Police officers, National guard, Military, 90%+ in the conservative corner

The unrest seen in Portland, Seattle, Chicago, New York, Atlanta, etc is driven by the media, largely college kids in rebellion, if mask were taken off their faces you would see lonely scared individuals, running with the crowd, clueless

Are these college kids and any on the left willing to really go to war on American soil?

We will see in November?

There’s not gonna be a civil war. Of course, unrest is possible if someone is being accused of foul play.

I’m a little worried about extremists on both sides of the aisle, though. Some of them might want to see action, but they are not enough to cause a war.

I’m praying that everyone respects the outcome of the election, be it Trump or Biden.

that depends on how you define " civil war"

ask folks in portland or chicago and they might disagree.

and , if you want to be technical , there was no " civil war" in america.

the " civil war" that folks speak of is properly termed " the war of northern aggression ".

Well, when I grew up it was referred to as “The war between the states” or “The lost cause”.

The war has been traumatizing my family through the blood lines for more than 150 years, and it will for years to come. I’m passing the stories from the war on to my daughter, stories I have heard since I was a child. Stories about kinfolks losing their lives, losing their dignity and dying in northern captivity.

A trauma that has caused so much grief.

I don’t think we’ll ever be done with that war.

some People grow up and theyve got NO idea, not one clue, about history.

They think all that they have they are entitled to. A lot of people think they have a right to feel superior to other people.

eugenics came about because of darwinist ideas of evolution, it devastated entire countries, and caused people to think they had a right to be superior to others.

Another thing was people were greedy for more land. Land isnt actually meant to be bought or sold, its God given, but the system we have now is its divided up into ever decreasing individual lots. a lot of people had no idea how to sustain themselves on land which is why so many were fighting over it.

land that is still fertile over thousands of years cultivation because of organic practices, can degenerate in just one generation with chemical agriculture.

I will continue to expose Susanna as a Democratic Liberal that has left the Republican Party, that has stated she will vote for Progressive Liberal Joe Biden in Nov
It's none of your business who anyone votes for. You vote for who you want to become president, and allow everyone else to do the same.

Tell me something, is this the way you behave in real life? If your neighbour told you who they were going to vote for and you didn't agree with it, is this the way you hound them?

Nothing wrong with respectful debates as to which candidate is better, but at the end of the day you can't harass or cuss out someone because of their choice.

You just pray and ask God to allow you to choose rightly, and you pray for your country that God will help everyone else to choose what's best for the country. And you leave it there. That's it.

Your generation is done for, total collapse in morality. You can find the list in the Bible, ALL apply to this generation:
What utter nonsense. You better hope and do all you can to ensure that the younger generation is not done for.

When you are going down the road with your walking stick, its the younger generation who will help you to cross the street. So pray for them and don't vex them with your unfair words.

Every generation criticise the one after it, this is old.

More false claims, I don't harass or cuss to anyone, it's your false (Biased) opinion that claims such.

Your suggestions would be found to best help the progressive liberals that are looting, stealing, destroying, in chaos who Joe Biden, and the democratic Governor's and Mayor's support.

You try desperately to silence my voice with (False Claims) Jesus Christ Is Lord!

I agree, thats why I voted for a President Donald J. Trump that opposes the Liberal Chaos seen in these Democratic Cities Seattle, Portland, Chicago, New York, fighting for law and order in the next generation.

Progressive Liberals pushing Defund the police, loot, destroy, open the prisons, chaos!

Trump/Pence 2020 Jesus Christ Is Lord!
