Man, NY is squeezing you for almost 9%? Rough

In FL we continue to root for Zohan.....NYC will get what it deserves, and more deserving locations will continue to reap the benefits of the exodus of the quality citizens. I was revisiting some names, hoping mainly to see some ideas emerge in the wake of this short term stupidity and was a little surprised by the conclusion. We heard a lot of "NY isnt dead", even "NYC is back" even "thriving" talk. However upon visiting my typical NY basket of names....are there ANY NY related names that are anywhere near recovered from the covid damage? The MSG universe finally got there. ESRT despite solid execution, nope. VNO not even close. SLG, nope. Veris, nope. Was "the recovery" a myth? In what world are there credible investment cases around this city given the deteriorating politics and quality of overall taxpayer(let alone citizen resident)?

Thats almost exactly the point of the Brookfield fanboy comment. They hate the salesmen and money grifters? Nah man. Long Brookfield! A Canadian Treasure!

lol I would’ve thought pretending to care about integrity would make owning an entity run by lying sleezeballs a no go…the the mental gymnastics continue nonethless. Same kind of way that you couldn’t possibly ignore what was going on in the office of the president previously and now just “wake up” and have all these issues. Again just a loser mentality.

Yup LOL. OK with all these things til Trump showed up basically. The "I hate Trump, been long Biden and Brookfield" complex.....

To be fair, they regularly denigrate the NY Post even though it’s been pretty thorough reporting both sides, but then find comfort in the legitimacy of Reddit sub threads….

Whelp, more successful immigration policy on display in the UK tonight.

See here’s where this is wrong. I’m generally a pro vaccine guy. But the Covid vaccines were 100% experimental and the MRNA stuff was well studied for decades but ultimately not well known in the wild. I remember vividly how shortly after word of the vaccine success came out, there were initially a few MSM reported stories of horrific reactions to the shots. It was out there for maybe 24-48 hours. Then it all disappeared. Those stories were then covered up and Fauci and co denied they were any worse than standard reactions. As I’ve mentioned, I’ve gotten the flu shot every year since I’ve had kids…so fall 2016. I got the first covid vax probably before 90% of people just cuz the process seemed to favor people with family in the medical space…which I have in spades. It was fine. Second covid shot I got is by a country mile the sickest I’ve ever been in my life. Had a 105 fever, the whole 9. I’ve run into so many people who’ve had a similar experience. Would I do anything differently in hindsight? I can’t honestly say. But the trust in the establishment is gone and it’s MSM outlets and liberals who helped push the fraud…fuck those people.

Yup. It’s called payback.

I’ll actually make the distinction that was conveniently left out in the “I agree” fest….so technically, you could argue against, tradition “censorship”. It wasn’t a direct order from the government in the sense of an official declaration(such as Speks referenced license pull threats)….it was government agencies and MSM colluding behind the scenes to hide a story for the purposes of influencing the election! Yes, the same charge of “influencing the election” that these fruitcakes and hypocrites spent the previous 5 years railing against and claiming were a threat to democracy! No, it wasn’t technically a “censorship”, but the majority of news networks and social media outlets refused to report “news”, banned and blocked people from sharing the story, and when it started getting enough light, they willingly published a counter narrative from a group of liars(whom instead of being presented as scumbags were labeled “experts”). End of the day…cry me a river, you reap what you sow.

Yup. But 3 people who always seem to agree with each other +1 it, so whom are we to argue?

I’ll try! So, I don’t really wanna work anymore, so can we get behind raising taxes on people who do and finding ways to sent some of that to me? My kid also can’t compete with his male peers, if he has some kinda weird “feeling”(or at least claims to), can we let him beat up on the girls? And while we re at it, I kinda just don’t like how I feel when right wing loonies make jokes, so yall wanna get together and do some arts and crafts before bum rushing a police precinct and rioting? But only after we ve officially confirmed everyone’s gone 3 weeks without showering and we can confirm(without checking IDs) that we got 3-5 TQs in the group?

So in other words you didn’t need to be an engineer or a rocket scientist to buy long dated bonds? Im just checking cuz for some weird ass reason all those corporate bonds I was led to believe would be the end of me are showing…lotta green? And as you mentioned, the real fun ain’t even started yet. Fun times!

Because the response to Milu followed a familiar pattern. He basically said, ok I’m not getting into it, let’s just drop it. Maybe because it’s already been debated, or maybe because we all know that “let’s audit the sources” opening salvo is just the first line to then a predictable series of events that have two outcomes….1) like he did, walk away without a source and then have it be presented as if his lack of willingness to produce a response denigrates what he stated. Or 2) go down the well known hole of a) dispute the source and play the my source is better card, then b) present selected items from such “superior sources” as “facts” that always seem to support the pre existing and original content challenging narrative. So he didn’t bite and basically got Which is again just a high levelly articulated way on tying his position to that of being an uneducated dunce. I think it’s fair for people to have little to no trust in the traditional experts after what happened. And in general think the greatest tragedy of it all is the degree to which a lot of these people doubled down on traditional real world lacking evidence because they were, for one reason or another, tied to a side. Most people didn’t have sides, they just wanted their constitutional rights to be respected. The most honest answer I got from a medical professional or academic researcher on COVID, fairly early in the pandemic, was, “heck if I know. Everyone’s going to get exposed to it and there’s not much that can be done about that. Over time these things tend to get more transmissible and less lethal. But they’re already fairly confident they have a vaccine and if you’re under 50 it’s probably not going to kill you, but don’t hold me to any of that”….far cry from all the pontificating about levels of masking, necessity for locking people down and taking away their livelihoods and doubling and tripling down on these positions despite not much besides theory underpinning them.

Where are your sources and citations for this conclusion! LOL

Yup, and now in a rather hilarious twist of fate, chief academic, science and fact following elitist Bill Gates drops a giant JK Just Kidding!!! bomb on all those leaf eating global warming doomsayers that he inspired. You can’t make this shit up.

The important thing is as time passes, is not to allow them(the liberals and academics) to rewrite history and erase what they did to people. It was a horrifying and shameful authoritarian power grab. For the politicians it was simple. They saw an opportunity to do what they do best, and took it. For the an academics and Fauci disciples it was a little more puzzling but likely stems from huge insecurity. The nerds like Fauci had there 15 minutes of fame and just couldn’t let it go. But even bigger and more nefariously, the bulk of them felt threatened to their core by the sheer fact that “simple cavemen” were not following their “research” based advice and…much to their chagrin, not only were their predicted results wrong, in many cases they were the exact opposite. Recall how awful the lockdown states were when it came to deaths? Throughout pretty much the whole pandemic? And how hard these “fact” people had to go on and on in denial and how instead of just admitting they were wrong, it was always “we need to look deeper into the data” until inevitably they found something to cling to that supported their stance? After all, at the core, these nerds NEEDED something, anything, otherwise they obviously felt threatened in their existence, because how else could we possibly justify giving them all the free money they receive for their tests and studies?!? Which is why they tried endlessly to find any data to claim the Florida or Sweden approach wasn’t the correct one, but instead their CA/NY approach was the preferred method supported by “science and fact”. When it went against them, they’d do the “nerd box turtle”; disappear into a shell and ramp through “data” until they could re emerge with “something” to keep supporting their original position. So yea, it’s our job to hold them accountable and not let them rewrite history to erase their responsibility. Make them own it. And certainly after all the “data” and “more facts” they always required in order to deny a pretty obvious conclusion(again one you didn’t need many years in a lab or trapped in a university to arrive at), we definitely don’t let them walk away now just pointing to “one chart” where we selectively show “one spike” as proof that the opposing view is that of a “tribal cavemen” because “me read more bigger, longer books and peer reviewed studies than you”!

Nice. Yall were either triple masked up in your attics with a posh little Zoom pulpit setup and following the science, or you were some tribal conspiracy theorist on the wrong side of how history will be written in the textbooks! Love it.

Yea it's unfortunate, but the science nerds and public servants sold out the common man during the pandemic. The dorks got their 15 minutes of fame and the politicians and grifters made their fortunes..and today we see the repercussions of that.

Kennedy, a career scumbag politician, which precedes his status as a career liberal sleazeball, saw there was a huge group of vaccine skeptics following the disgraceful covid antics, and simply capitalized on the momentum of the opportunity. I think Trump realized he could market that, but I have a hard time really believing that many folks really take anything ole Bobby says seriously.

It was someone else who made the absurd aids comparison. But to your suggestion above…do you REALLY believe it was raspy old RFK(another defected old school liberal looney) who caused everyone to be skeptical? Or the medical professionals and public officials and their conduct through out the COVID hoax?

Yea Ive been a little baffled by the resurgence of "polls" and "experts" touting "their" science/facts again. It's as if they never learn.

Speaking of handouts and freebies that @Marco Van Basten was referencing, you now have the Homeless Haven Coop States actually trying to sue Trump over SNAP benefits! Newsflash you bozos....it's your senators that keep blocking the government from opening....so smart these guys.

Imagine? The party that champions baby killing gaslighting themselves into thinking personal freedom when it comes to putting things in one’s body is….to thin out the heard LMFAO! So shot

Which is why we can leave liberal crime center cesspools like NYC, Chicago, LA/SF as is for the stupid ones, and let everyone else enjoy their freedoms! Go Zohran! Go Gavin!
