Now here you go again trying to tell me what my non-belief is. How dare you. If anything came from my childhood it is all that baggage that I got rid of.

The 'Safe and Effective' vaccines may not prevent infection or transmission.

DenoPenno comments on Sep 1, 2022:

They are supposed to assure you of a milder case of Covid if you are vaxxed and do get the disease. You know, sort of like the flu vaccines. At no time or place did anyone say get these shots and you will not get Covid. Being vaccinated is called an immunization but it does not mean you become "immune" from Covid. Antivaxxers want to argue that one forever and they know what is going on. It's just that they will not shut up. People behind the vaccines want you to take them because some people actually do have to pay for them and the companies make money this way. It is also believed that if you do not die you might be a candidate to buy many of the useless products being pushed worldwide these days. Yes, they make a profit when you buy products. On the other hand, my cousins friends uncle knows a man who got the shot and died an hour later. There are many of these stories. Then you have my real cousin who got Covid and went to the hospital with it, then died later after they approved him to leave. Then there is myself who got Covid 2 years ago and I did not work for a month but I survived. I also had 2 doses of Moderna. BTW, Covid is slowly sneaking back. My son-in-law has it pretty bad right now.

The collapse of capitalism is coming about now because of the extremes it is following. A simple system of supply and demand has turned into everything you do and every move you make becoming something to buy being pushed at you. This is because all your habits online are being bought and sold. You have become that dog who chases cars but cannot drive. E-mail is showing you that car from yesterday you looked at and others know it and do not want to be under sold. If they know you sneezed you will be shown the right medicine without asking for it. This is the beginning of the end for capitalism.

Janis Joplin - To love somebody - YouTube

I never knew or met Janis Joplin but I grew up with a local girl that became a musician and did all the Joplin songs. Patty O'Neal was her name and she is also dead and gone now. Any time she was around a band anywhere they wanted her on stage and the audience would hardly let her go. Her claim to fame was that she was a backup singer but on stage alone she was Janis Joplin. Many of us thought she did Janis Joplin better than Janis Joplin.

I actually believe this.

DenoPenno comments on Aug 28, 2022:

Maybe I am just too sleepy yet this morning. I don't get this at all. I'm a former conservative turned liberal and identify today as a progressive. Currently I see no good coming out of any political belief where somebody has to lose. There should be equality and benefit for all as much as possible. Common good does not come about by the working of some invisible hand but I do agree that religion has poisoned everything. This is true today more than ever before because of desires to make America a theocracy when it plainly is not. Business practices seem to work out of stupidity and greed. If you have ever been in a checkout line in Walmart, for example, it is assumed that the person in front of you using a food stamp card is the real problem. They are using your money and have stolen it, but this is not true. Move on now to there conversion to self checkouts where they claim to be saving so much money. In reality more people are involved with this system than individual checkouts. The claim is that this system helps avoid theft. The reality IMO is that more can now be stolen.

They deny anyone different from them or claim it is all made up by the Left. You can't make up those other races and religions and this is just a start. Someday this will all come back to bite them in the ass. A woman I worked with a few years ago asked me what I would do when the white race is a minority. There is no white race and I have no interest in checking the stats on this. It is not anything that scares me.
