Summing up the Gates haters

Use covid-19 as a reason or excuse to track?
Or use the actual virus itself to track?
Is that ambiguity is meant to confuse the issue?
Lot's of people want to track everyone and they use the virus as an excuse to do this. And of course they want to use your obamapho, and the chips in it, to do this.
It's some nice ambiguous headline writing, it could inflame people for several different reasons.

40% of Republicans and half of Fox News viewers believe this shit? Seems exaggerated, if the number were that high we would have seen some of the usual suspects here at least flirting with the idea.
But still, fucking hell.
We'd also see some of the usual suspects post the survey and sneer at at how crazy the right is.
-
Sorry - this is objectively bonkers.
Don’t feel the need to circle the wagons with these clowns.

Like mask protesters, i feel no need to circle wagons with people I have never personally met. As always, the fringe makes the news and produces the dopamine response in those whose bias that the other tribe is crazy has been confirmed. Include Nazis, KKK, etc in all that. We can agree it's crazy, we don't agree it's meaningful.

I would agree with you if the poll had indicated it was fringe. It seems more like the modal FoxNews watcher.
FWIW I have trouble believing the data myself.

Over the last three years how many people believed insane stuff about Trump that was proven wrong the following week and then virtually ignored by the media.
How can you be shocked by this. It’s the Rosetta Stone of your own tribe.

Jon, you're smarter than this. The Left believes Trump said to inject clorox, so you counter with "the right believes Gates is bringing on the mark of the beast, and attack Fox News viewers. To quote Joe Biden... "Come on, man!"
First, you should watch Fox News more yourself. It's the only news media you can trust these days. Second, no, the right doesn't believe Gates is 666.
I expect this kind of silly shit out of Ax, but you know better.
-
No I posted poll results. The only opining I did was to say that surely they are exaggerated.

I didn't even know there were any Gates haters.
Fvcker put a chip in my head. I am quite sure of it. Heard I can inject bleach to kill the chip. Serves that Dickhead right, thinks he’s so goddamn right and clever.
-
The existence of internet memes appears to be sufficient justification for left wing sneering at how crazy the right tends to be. In seriousness, the Russians and any other professional or avocational trolls can very easily use that. American culture is so easy to troll because individuals are so eager to have their tribal biases confirmed.

I just cannot understand the Gates haters. Here is a guy who has pledged his fortune and his life to the betterment of life here on earth. He has done immense good for possibly millions already.
I cannot imagine having that wealth and not doing that.
I agree.
