What a slanted description designed to make it seem like Newsom is an elitist ...


Gavin Newsom is the son of an appellate court judge and came from an old, privileged San Francisco family. He graduated from Santa Clara University in 1989, and with a loan from the wealthy Getty family, he started the PlumpJack Wine Shop in 1992

Yeah, he is all that, but he is not close to the Trump or most of the elite oligarch class considering he is a Liberal/Progressive. These kind of partisan political slights are making their way all through the internet on sites that are not conscious or which are partisan politically.

This doesn't just seem like he's elite: "privileged San Francisco family". How is the truth "slanted"? You must watch CNN!

reply

He's a snake but he's not a snake.
He's a tiger but he's not a tiger.
He's a rich fucker but he's not a rich fucker.

Do you fuckers ever read your own writing?

reply

Do you ever make any sense at all?

reply

What part of his comment didn't make sense?

reply

Gavin is not a perfect politician and while he definitely is ambitious and being pushed by the DNC, the GOP/Rightwing forces are indeed scared shitless of him. I am not vested personally into politics but it's pretty clear that the GOP is trying to paint Gavin as Bill Clinton 2.0 and it may work for the long term effort to derail any presidential run, but frankly this type of politiking seems so 90s/2000s. The world is shifting below the USA's feet and we currently have a phony "cultural war" being propagated by Social Media junkies, all the while real important shit is being ignored.

I'm at least satisfied that the Anti-Mask/Vaccination brigade is being exposed for their stupidity and Governors from Texas, Florida, and South Dakota look like complete idiots touting the the gQp mantra that has now blown up in their face.

reply

if Florida and Texas did not blow up, i think Newsom would be gone, libs on the fence want change, but will wait for real election next year

reply

Can you believe it, Florida has more Covid cases now that it did at any time in the epidemic and their idiot governor is doubling down on stupidity.

reply

Do some real research on masks (not at CNN, NYT, or NPR) and you will discover, if you're smart enough and honest enough, that they are useless for anything other than virtue signaling. Florida, Texas, and South Dakota have lower corona virus death rates than California. Newsom has accomplished nothing but ruining businesses and putting people out of work. It's time for him to go.

Pelosi's Nephew he's def an elitist

reply

Yeah, I am not crazy about that facet of his character, and after all this talk he really has not done much of these grand visions he said he had ... BUT, what he has done has been OK, and remember, FDR was an elitist as well, and going back further, all of our Founders could be considered elitists. There are progressive elitists and retrograde elitists and various degrees of both.

reply

They should update this description with the fact that Newsom placed restrictive policies on the citizens of California that he refused to follow.

That's pretty much the definition of elitism.

reply

That's pretty much BS.

"That's pretty much BS."

The problem with you lot is that you don't care about the law or consistency.

> This Democratic governor thinks his own Covid-19 rules don't apply to him

On the one hand you pretend to care about what this governor does, but when Trump holds a gathering without wearing a mask you think its great - even when one of the attendees dies from Covid-19 ... remember Herman Cain?

I can go through every one of your boring illogical stupid comments and list the BS, which is why I don't really give a damn about your goofball arguments, and neither should anyone else.

Yeah, Newsom made a mistake and apologized for it. A Republican governor would have made the same mistake for everyone in the state and we'd be dying like Floridians - so shove that where the sun don't don't shine you incoherent sheepdip.

reply

"On the one hand you pretend to care about what this governor does, but when Trump holds a gathering without wearing a mask you think its great"

Huh? Why is this so hard for you to understand?

Trump wasn't out there telling everyone else to wear a mask. He wasn't creating 'laws' that forced people to close their businesses, or to stay at home.

It's a simple concept. I can write it in crayon for you if it helps.

"I can go through every one of your boring illogical stupid comments and list the BS"

Yeah, just like you did here. LOL!

reply

By the way, speaking of Covid, a month ago you were saying this:

"The reality of the vaccinated population has given so much data that, for the mRNA vaccines these are the safest and most effective vaccines in history,"

And calling people stupid who told you it was too early to make that claim.

I notice you're not saying that anymore.

reply

I'll say it right now ... the mRNA vaccines these are the safest and most effective vaccines in history.

reply

"I'll say it right now ... the mRNA vaccines these are the safest and most effective vaccines in history."

Nice to have it on record you're simply blathering bullshit in order to sound smart.

2.1. Measles, Mumps, Rubella
One of the most common live attenuated vaccines in use today is the MMR vaccine. Although originally designed as three separate vaccines, attenuated strains of measles, mumps, and rubella were successfully formulated into a single combination vaccine in the US in 1971 (Strebel et al. 2013) and it continues to be used to provide protective immunity against pathogens responsible for what were once considered common childhood diseases. Similar to smallpox vaccination, they were developed against viruses that are antigenically stable and have only a single serotype. Even when combined with live, attenuated VZV to provide a quadrivalent vaccine, seroconversion rates remain high (measles; 97.1%, mumps; 96.0%, rubella; 98.8% and varicella; 93.5%, respectively) (Lieberman et al. 2006). Other vaccines against antigenically variable viruses (e.g., influenza) or pathogens with multiple serotypes (e.g., HPV) indicate that as vaccine technologies have improved and evolved, there are opportunities to combat more complicated and challenging pathogens through effective immunization programs. Although nearly all vaccines require at least one booster dose in order to maintain long-term protective immunity (Slifka and Amanna 2014), many of our most successful vaccines have achieved the appropriate balance of both safety and efficacy.

3.1. Hepatitis A
Infection with HAV was once a leading cause of viral hepatitis in the US, with 20,000–60,000 cases reported annually and fatality rates as high as 1.8% in adults >50 years of age (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2015c). Vaccine development against HAV benefited from several key factors including early studies demonstrating the efficacy of passive immunotherapy (Gellis et al. 1945; Havens and Paul 1945; Stokes and Neefe 1945; Hsia et al. 1954), the discovery of cell culture conditions for the propagation of HAV (Provost and Hilleman 1979), and passive and active immunization studies in appropriate animal models including chimpanzees and marmosets (Purcell et al. 1992; Provost et al. 1986). These critical elements supported the eventual development and licensure of two inactivated whole-virion, alum-adjuvanted vaccines (Havrix® and Vaqta®) in the US and since their implementation in the 1990s, the rates of disease have declined by >90% (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2015c). Efficacy for both vaccines is high, with estimates ranging from 94–100% (Werzberger et al. 1992; Innis et al. 1994). HAV-specific antibodies have been identified as the key correlate of protective immunity following vaccination, and although an absolute lower limit has not been defined, titers >10–20 mIU/mL are generally considered protective (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 1996).


Other highly effective vaccines are listed there.

But you're obviously not interested in facts.

>> seroconversion rates remain high

You are confused reading stuff you do not understand.

">> seroconversion rates remain high

Typical response from a dumb ass. Trying to sound smart by not going into details.

So tell us, why did you highlight that line, and how does it argue against that vaccine's effectiveness?

And no stupid reply like "It should be obvious." Explain it.

I'll be waiting.

reply

We're still waiting three days later (LOL).

Yeah.... but.... but.... orange man bad!!!

Nothing screams irony than a bunch of MAGAits calling him elitist while throwing all their support behind a multi-millionaire media personality. If it really is about elitism then they should have gotten behind Foulcener. John Cox is a millionaire as well but I think the MAGAits just like calling people names because that's all they stand for.
