Every dark cloud has a silver lining. The US is close to 500,000 deaths. When the Super Bowl COVID surge and the Spring break COVID surge hits the COVID death toll will spike again. Add to that the variants and things things are very likely to get ugly fast.
I don't mince words and I'm actually happy that more no good rotten people are dying from the covid-19 virus. Trumpers are no good dirty rotten people. There's no arguing that. The only help a MAGAt needs is help going to prison and help dying from their lifestyle choices. Don't waste your breath on them. Evil will not listen to truth.

Op Ed: People have of me, Fat Bastardo for doing the happy dance for all the MAGAts dying of COVID-19 virus. They thought that MAGAts were simply confused and tricked by Trump even when I pointed out to them that they were filthy dirty scum long before Trump came along. Most pedophiles are Republicans, most Republican voters are racists, all hate groups are right wing, nearly all domestic terrorists are right wing and when you examine the Bible Belt you will find that it has the most obesity, diabetes, smoking, heart disease, teen pregnancy and divorce. You can't blame Trump for that. That's who they are and that is why Trump appealed to them and because Mitch McConnell is not depraved enough for them, they want to kill his grand children. Will they kill McConnell's grand kinds? They would have killed Mike Pence had they had gotten their hands on him. They have even threatened to kill Chief Justice Roberts.
The DHS has predicted that we may have 10 to 20 years of right wing terrorism. With traitors on the right such as that brutal cunt Jeanine Pirro, Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Giuliani, the My Pillow Guy, and Laura Ingraham etc fanning the flames it's going to get really ugly and hopefully all 74 million MAGAts who voted for Trump get placed on the terrorist watch list. These people are not anything like the Germans who were duped by Hitler. The MAGAts are as bad as Hitler and IMO deserve the same fate.

A Trump supporter has been arrested for threatening Mitch McConnell's grandkids on Parler.
Brad Houck from Oklahoma made death threats on social media against several public officials, using sites such as Facebook and Parler.
Mr Houck posted numerous threatening messages on Parler in the lead up to and after the Capitol riot on 6 January, one of which was directed at Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. Mr Houck wrote: "Hey Mitch, how are your grandkids doing?"
An FBI affidavit said that a detective for the Moore, Oklahoma police department contacted federal investigators to inform them of complaints the department had received about Mr Houck's Parler account, KOCO-TV reporter Dillon Richards reported.
Federal agents in Oklahoma City contacted the city's police department and were sent more screenshots of Mr Houck's posts, one of which threatened Chief Justice of the Supreme Court John Roberts. Mr Houck wrote on 3 January: "Hey Justice Roberts, we are coming for you and your illegal adopted kids!! Finished! They will get to watch you hang."
The FBI got a warrant and traveled to Mr Houck's home. After announcing their arrival by loudspeaker several times to no response, they finally made verbal contact with Mr Houck after breaching a window. Mr Houck went further back into the house, according to the FBI criminal complaint.
Mr Houck finally exited his home while smoking a cigarette, asking if this was about "the posts". Despite being told to raise his hands, Mr Houck kept them down, telling agents to come to him. He eventually approached the agents.
According to the FBI, they found 24 guns along with thousands of rounds of ammunition in Mr Houck's home. They also located almost $4,800 in cash and several "personal electronic devices".
Mr Houck further threatened former President George W Bush, posting on 6 December 2020: "GWB is a dead man... we will find you georgie boy."
On 24 December 2020, Mr Houck issued a different threat against Chief Justice Roberts, writing: "Supreme Court justices are appointed for life... You give us only one way to remove treasonous judges... death! It's coming John Roberts!"
He also threatened Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, and Republican Oklahoma Senator James Lankford, among others.
Mr Houck posted on 22 December 2020: "We must storm that Capitol and remove these people by force!"
Mr Houck was ordered detained by Magistrate Judge Amanda Maxfield Green until his hearing on Wednesday in Oklahoma City.
According to the Criminal Complaint by the FBI, Mr Houck bragged to people about being banned from Facebook and Parler for his posts. Showing the posts to his wife, the FBI said that she thought that they were not acceptable, but that her husband had not been to Washington, DC on 6 January, the day of the Capitol riot.
Federal prosecutors said a Norman man with the Parler username “Brad Houck” threatened officials online, including Sen. James Lankford. They also said they found guns, ammunition and cash at ...

OpEd: How do you stop liars from lying and censors from censoring? I think we all know the answer to to that but we can't say it. We all know that if trash like Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook who earned money by running ads for Russian spies, Jack Dorsey who allowed Trump and his traitorous mob to run lies on Twitter and fraudster and Zuckerberg dick sucker Adam D'Angelo Quora would clean up their acts if they knew they'd be punished appropriately. If the courts won't punish them who will?
Project Veritaspublished an interviewwith a former Facebook employee revealing, among other things, the fact that Facebook has been censoring information on its platform with functionality called “deboosting”. This functionality enables Facebook to actively limit the reach certain information has by blocking (groups of) people from seeing it — the opposite effect of boosting content on Facebook.
For example, during a live stream done by an individual, Facebook can suppress the feed from being visible to other people, and limit its reach to just their friends. Or they may limit its bandwidth and disable certain features such as the “Like” and “Share” buttons. So you may wonder why your live stream or other content gets so little engagement, maybe even thinking you’re doing something wrong, when in fact it’s Facebook working behind the scenes to actively suppress your content. And the sneaky thing about it is that Facebook doesn’t notify you in any way that your content is being suppressed, as the former Facebook employee confirms in the video interview below.
Deboosting is a form of shadow banning. Normally when you get banned on a social media platform, you know about it because you get notified in some way that you got banned; maybe you can’t login anymore or you can’t post anything and you may even have received a notification about your account being banned. But when you get shadow banned, you’re not given any indication that you’ve been banned. You can log in on the platform as usual, you can post and comment on other people’s posts and everything seems to work fine. But your posts and comments aren’t visible to any other people but yourself. This is a really evil form of censorship, where you think you’re freely expressing yourself, but don’t know that you’re actually being censored. And what can make this even more evil, is when it happens only partially or selectively.
The only way in which people can find out themselves that they’ve been shadow banned is when they notice a lack of engagement on their posts; for example, when nobody reacts to your posts or comments. This may be an indication that people simply aren’t seeing your content. You can then verify if your content is actually visible by using a different account to check if you can see your own content on the other account.
Apart from Facebook I know from my own experience that Reddit also frequently shadow bans users. My own account on Reddit was shadow banned, and I even had an account shadow banned on “Hacker” News. You would think that people who call themselves “hackers” would be capable of dealing with the truth, but if you did you would have been misled. Trust me when I say that true hackers are very rare these days.
