Seen at Insty, from Richard Fernandez:
I’m sorry, but when my soccer team has just suffered a 3-2 loss because the ref’s son was playing for the other side and he unjustly awarded them two penalties in the last three minutes of play, I’m not going to claim that we had the moral victory.
A loss is a fucking loss, and what we have to do is figure out how to live with the consequences. Wretchard goes on to explain:
I hate to say it, but the Left absolutely loves Communist China, so as far as they are concerned, China are the good guys and losing to them is part of their program (see: Obama and the Muslims in the Middle East).
Our economy is going to tank because at the slightest whiff of the next Chinkvirus outbreak, Comrades Biden/Harris are going to lock us down like Gauleiter Gretchen Whitmer tried to do in Michigan — once again, not a problem for the Left because they thrive on the population living in common misery — and we should always remember that the Left has no interest in outcomes, only intentions.
What I’m waiting for is for Gruppenfuehrer Beto O’Rourke’s sturmtruppen to come knocking at my door to confiscate my guns.
So if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to the range.
Update: from Reader Mike L comes this:
I am from Massachusetts. Starting this coming Friday, the “Republican” Governor here, Charlie Baker (he is a closeted Democrat) has a new Covid Executive order.
- You may not leave your home between 10 PM and 5 AM unless it’s for food, work or medicine. I guess the Covid is more dangerous between 10 as 5 according to this clown?
- you must wear a mask OUTSIDE even with No one around
- you must wear a mask in a car or in a house if you visit someone who doesn’t live with you in your household.
Looks like they’re not even going to wait until February.
