I know a lot of people are very critical of Mitch McConnell, but if he were here he would explain that there are very

"Half awake, we ate the blood and flesh of our murdered God. Then we sang, for what is dead will never die. Our God is eternal, has come back from death, sees and knows all, and is all powerful."

Translation: I went to church on sunday, partook in the eucharist, then we sang a few hymns.

Christianity is very weird if you actually take a moment to think about it, especially the obsession with blood and cannibalism.

everything can be a weapon.

Those people are so annoying.

I usually ask them why we don't replace the military and police's guns with spoons. Save a lot of money. You can also kill people with a spoon.

They've been publishing almost the same article for something like a decade.

So bubbly and cloying, and happy... just like the Federation. If you drink enough of it, you begin to like it.

It's a fun little show, that's not meant to be taken even slightly seriously.

People who hate it with a passion, are weirdos. Just like the people upset with the little mermaid movie.

You have to be pretty immature/weird to get upset about something so inconsequential.

I strongly you suggest you actually read this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Jazeera_controversies_and_criticism

Skip the bits on western countries. Focus on Arab/Muslim countries.

Fatah, the Palestinians who run the West Bank, have repeatedly called Al Jazeera biased in favour of Hamas and even at one point banned it. It's a common complaint in the Arab world, not just the western world.

Here's a list of ongoing wars:

You can decide which ones to care about.

According to current death toll, Ukraine is currently the worst, but the news media and audiences are bored of it.

Sudan are the wrong colour.

I was immediately imagining how I could use this knowledge to my advantage at a high stakes poker game or high level business negotiations, until I remembered I'm sat in my underpants talking shit on the internet.

IRC another reason is that the figures show the elderly, who are most likely to be vaccinated, also die at higher rates. Often older vaccinated people died at higher rates than younger unvaccinated people.

But the actual reason the elderly die in higher numbers, is because they're old. If you compare the unvaccinated elderly to the vaccinated elderly, obviously the unvaccinated die in higher numbers.

Once you correct for age, it's obvious that vaccines do work.

I say obvious, it's almost impossible to convince an anti-vaxxer. They're already lost.

Sad really.

without questioning

We're supposed to question things? Ok.

instead of questioning why our taxes are diverted to useless liquids

Please provide a reputable source that proves your claim that the vaccine is useless. Medical journal, abstract from a study, etc.

Even if the elderly are vaccinated, they continue to die from Covid.

Please provide a reputable source that vaccinated elderly people are as likely to die from covid, as unvaccinated elderly people.
