It could be communist? Just saying.

WELL, We did have a system like that. It was called pre-feminism life. Men worked, and woman were home doing the MORE IMPORTANT JOB. Sometimes, old timey stuff got it right. Modernity is not always what it's cracked up to be.

If Pep Guardiola left tomorrow, who would you want as Manchester City’s next manager? Is there anyone who could even fill his shoes? πŸ€”βš½οΈ #MCFC #MCI #premierleague

According to Football Insider, a new contract for Guardiola is β€˜99% done’ after he reached an agreement in principle to stay

If money were everything? Would City have won 4 in a row? No.

It's time to retire "LET'S GO"
Also? Anything that is emoji to spoken word can GTFO too.

Is Manchester City’s dominance in the Premier League proof of Guardiola’s genius, or is it down to the club’s financial power? Can anyone truly challenge them? Let’s hear your thoughts! #MCFC #MCI #premierleague

So if I just start posting about Manchester City #MCFC I can be as big as @stevenmcinerney.bsky.social ? I think now is my chance!

That is very funny. And also a sign of the weakness of text.

The left is can have some serious purity pissing contests about who is leftier. Goes way back to anarchist, trade unions, bolsheviks and mensheviks, Stalinist and Trotskyist. Never ends. Purges never end.

Thanks for the response. I honestly didn't think about gender at all. Didn't cross my mind for one second. Also? I was grateful she was responding. I wasn't trying to teach anyone anything! If anything? I was just talking trying to convey the anecdotal experiences I've had.
Anyway, thanks πŸ™

Oh, it's fine, attack was the wrong word. You mentioned not being blunt. What I was driving at is that you can be blunt if you want to. And it's ok. I want to chat and I am not angry or upset or anything like that. Been enjoying this. Thanks!

No, of course not. I am sure she knows. Anecdotal madness of the people. Thanks for the comment.

You can attack me. It's ok. People are angry. But there are good people, who are legitimately shaken. They aren't bad, they aren't dumb, and they are afraid. Their faith in institutions is broken. (I am 3x COVID-vax'd but concerned.)

These are good conversations. Thank you!

Thanks! I hear you. Its no longer about science. It's like the OJ trial. OJ was guilty, but the police lied. So anything they said was invalid.
ie. The vax is real and working, but Fauci lied. So everything he said is invalid. (and by extension, the CDC)
Doesn't make sense, but that's the story.

Agreed. And I think the less we think about this as a science thing and more as a story people have told themselves. The better. It's not rational, and to convince people we need better stories.

Thanks for this too. It's not about reality. It's about a story. It's about our AMERICAN story. We don't take likely to being told what to do. We've eroded institutions to a level such that there is always a % who will think it's a lie. And nothing rational people can do. Fascinating really.

I hear you. It's not rational how people are behaving. They have a story and narrative. Way more powerful than any graph. This is great information! Thanks.

Erin, it is the culmination of the individualistic nature of Americans. WHAT ABOUT ME! WHAT ABOUT MY FAMILY! I DON'T WANT THE RISK. It's always about the denominator and NEVER the numerator. ie. 1,000,000,000 get a vax, they are fine. 1 kid in Iowa dies "ONE KID DIED!! WHAT ABOUT MY BABY!!!"

05.07.2023 03:09 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 2 πŸ“Œ 0

Agreed. WAY more. Used to just be Earth-mother, holistic moms in Encinitas, and people who followed Jenny McCarthy

I mean? COVID vax is the main reason for that. There are definitely MORE. We essentially said, if you don't get this vax, you can't work or fly in over half the country. (pop wise, not area)

The fact is people are less religious than they have ever been. I am not sure that same-sex marriage was the reason, but factually people are reporting being less religious.
That could be the fault of the faithful being regressive. Or their fears being self-fulfilling. But it is in fact happening.
