Moravian replies on May 5, 2021:
@bbyrd009 I was one of the first in the UK to have the polio vaccine back in the late '50's.There had been reports of some people becoming ill from the vaccine or the oral Salk one so a couple of parents wouldn't let their kids be immunised. This didn't really matter as over 90% were immunised and polio is much less infectious than Covid 19.
Polio still occurs in some third world countries although it could quite easily be eradicated if some ignorant and superstitious people didn't refuse to let their children be vaccinated.
I'm not sure what point you are trying to make but your rambling discourse does not make a lot of sense.

Some less enlightened countries such as UK and USA thought initially that if they let the disease run wild eventually herd immunity would result. They didn't factor in the fact that the hospitals would be overwhelmed with ill people and the death rate in the elderly would be enormous.
The figure for herd immunity has always been in excess of 70% which is close to being achieved in the UK with over 50% of the population inoculated and a sizable number with natural immunity.

My favorite Yoga has fruit on the bottom.
Yes, I was raised in Alabama.
No, I don't think Yoga is bad, I just have doubts that it's the panacea advocates think it is.
The only real danger here is the Christian Conservatives that made it illegal in Alabama in the first place.

@barjoe Sentencing is certainly much more draconian in the USA where the running of prisons is a lucrative business. I was thinking about the situation in the UK where a life sentence can be as little as 20 years.I do not agree with the death sentence partly for the reason I gave and because it is more about revenge than justice.

@barjoe I have a friend who invested over £500.000 he inherited from his late father in London and Capital bonds. They were guaranteeing an 8% return when the bank rate was around 0.2 %. Of course it went belly up and he will probably lose all or most of it.
It has affected him badly and he has spent the last 18 months investigating the company and trying to get the perpetrators in court with out success.
He was very naive as were the people who fell for the Madoff Ponzi scheme. If it looks too good to be true then it probably is.
One thing interests me. He was sentenced to 180 years in prison when the sentence for murder i s normally less than 25 years. Looks like money ,means more than someones life.

Of course Britain exploited the countries it colonised . That's what colonial powers do, but when it gave up it's colonies the indigenous people took over the running of the country apart from one major exception. I wonder where that is ??

Judging by the situation in Qatar where tens of thousands of immigrant workers are building the stadia for the next football world cup I doubt it. The workers have their passports impounded,work in appalling conditions and over 6000 have already died. Many from heatstroke. This is little more than modern slavery.

I agree that big pharma can be a problem for example the opioid overdose epidemic in the USA and to a lesser extent here but they have come good with the speed that they have produce the Covid vaccines.

@think-beyond If you are interested in this there is a book you may like. It is "The perfect Predator" by Steffanie Strathdee and Thomas Patterson. Steffanie is my cousin and is professor of epidemiology at San Diego university.
It is the story of how her research helped to save her husband who was dying from a superbug contracted in Egypt. Many bacteria are now resistant to antibiotics and she heard about "phage treatment" where bacteriophages , tiny viruses, are used to attack and kill bacteria.
The story is about how she manged to get health professionals including those in the US navy to develop and use this treatment to cure her husband.
I had never heard of Royal Rife but apparently all his claims of curing diseases using his machines have now been totally discredited.

The landed gentry are still coining it.
We have things called community buy outs in the UK where large amounts of money are given to the landed gentry for land which was acquired by their ancestors in very dubious circumstances. Most likely because they were on the right side in some skirmish.

She also comments that in her social circle there is one man who is known to be abusive to women. She has asked other males in the circle to cut him out which none of them will do.
She insists that men do more to call out their mates on inappropriate behaviour before it gets more serious. This sounds laudable but how do you get lads to do this.

Your premise is messed up on many levels. Mixed messaging and mistreatment abounds for all genders (perhaps more so for women)
Your “ I felt bad because I didn’t have a shoe, until I saw a man that didn’t have a foot” approach is cute, but nothing but bullshit. Each experience is ...

@Lauren Shocking statistics. I know here domestic abuse is considered something shameful and to hide away. I think the police and the courts have to be more proactive and at the first signs action has to be taken'
I read a great book written by a kid who grew up in Dundee with a drunken abusive father and how he coped with it and is now married with his own children and happy'
His mother eventually left and the father had a succession of girlfriends . One had her own flat nearby but she kept coming and staying with him to be physically abused. I had to shake my head at that. What is it that makes women stay with abusive men when they have an easy escape route ? Conditioning, insecurity, loneliness ?

So in your opinion, no one should complain about their lived experience because someone else always has it worse? Wow! If we used that model for other targets of discrimination, it would get ridiculous fast.
A woman pointing out the insanity of messaging to her sex should just STFU because some...

@Killtheskyfairy I'm not insulted. I was deliberately provocative to get a response and I am not disappointed

I have had every single one of these said to me in your life, many of them more than once. Meaning, I cannot win beingmyself, ever.....everything about me is wrong!
I am sure it is an eye-opener for older women especially, it was for me the first time i read it!
Moravian replies on Mar 18, 2021:
@AnneWimsey Too bad. Sorry it has been so tough for you. Judging by the suicide statistics young men feel the pressure as well. In the UK suicides of young men heavily outweigh other groups. Society has a lot to answer for.

I'd say you sounded illogical and willfully ignorant. Please don't complain that's offensive as it's the dipshits I tell to fuck off who really deserve to be offended. What do others think?
Moravian replies on Mar 18, 2021:
Thanks Matt. Love you too ;-)
