China Killing It With Their Vaccine Rollout.

BD66 comments on Jul 9, 2021:

What's amazing is that Japan now has only 15% of its population fully vaccinated. You would think when they spent billions of dollars to host the Olympics that they would vaccinate their population so they could host plenty of visitors, but evidently not. We focus on all the stupid decisions our government makes, but foreign governments make just as many (if not more) bad decisions.

Obama put Biden in charge of curing cancer back in 2016: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWuvKIZeWbY Biden failed. Biden then attempted to cure cancer again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQY_xYmKSWs Biden will fail again, just like the Democrats will fail to control the Earth's climate. These repeated ridiculous and completely unobtainable goals that the Democrats seek to reach with tax dollars only highlight their ignorance and poor grasp on reality.

Is racism evolutionary?

BD66 comments on Jun 28, 2021:

Another explanation might be that humans (like wolves or dogs) are pack animals. For the majority of our existence (~100,000 years) modern man existed in small groups that shared very similar genetics. They were no doubt inclined to do what was necessary to protect and insure the survival of people in their own group (with shared genetics), and do less to protect and insure the survival of people outside their own group (with less similar genetics). Once humans started traveling the world (15th century), they would have encountered people who had evolved separately from them for many thousands of years. They would have been much more worried about the welfare of people they were traveling with than those they encountered in far away places.

Perhaps this web site name should be changed to AgnosticCommunist.com: She reported in 1937 on the Loyalist cause in Spain for the Communist magazine, 'The New Masses.'[48] At the behest of Otto Katz, a covert Soviet Comintern agent and operative of German Communist Party agent Willi Münzenberg, Parker helped to found the Hollywood Anti-Nazi League in 1936, which the FBI suspected of being a Communist Party front.[49] The Hollywood Anti-Nazi League's membership eventually grew to some 4,000 strong. According to David Caute, its often wealthy members were "able to contribute as much to [Communist] Party funds as the whole American working class," although they may not have been intending to support the Party cause.[50] Parker was listed as a Communist by the publication Red Channels in 1950.[54] The FBI compiled a 1,000-page dossier on her because of her suspected involvement in Communism during the era when Senator Joseph McCarthy was raising alarms about communists in government and Hollywood.[55] As a result, movie studio bosses placed her on the Hollywood blacklist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothy_Parker
