Not only does their team totally suck, but this piece of "artwork" (?) is just 🤮 🤮 🤮 (spotted at HomeGoods in Clearwater a few days ago). If memory serves it was marked down from $15.99 to $10, or something like that.
I'm forking this, because this is really a thread that is going to last the 2020s. I started writing something here, in the 'Natural Immunity' thread, but ... this isn't even about 'Natural Immunity' any more.
Group 1: Vocal Majority - Certainty and Mandates For All
These people have claimed everything is known since 2021 Spring, that the Pandemic is of the unvaccinated, the unvaccinated are to blame for everything, Pharma must be listened to, has no ulterior motives in only providing mRNA over traditional vaccines, that only new drugs will work, and that there are no issues with the advisement out of the CDC or FDA and any changes have due to changes in the science. They also believe mandates are the only way to end the pandemic. Everything else must be outlawed, and no doctors should be allowed to do anything... even if legal, and commonly tried in 20%+ cases of other infections and disease, which is actually how we find out a lot and long-term cures in combination.
Group 2: Vocal Minority - Let Individual Doctors Decide, Not All Vaccines or Medicines Are the Same
The people who have repeatedly pointed out we're utterly ignorant of Coronaviruses (CoV) in general, and while we weren't against the FDA and EMA approving mRNA and even re-vax'ing the elderly.... we've been concerned the younger we go because - as even the now published FDA and EMA documentation shows, the risk was worth it the older we go, but... with more of their lifespan left, the more risk to them, especially has the FDA expert panels have been ignored or bypassed, and definitely as the FDA's own, top experts have repeated there was no data showing any benefit for the general population to be re-vaxed, and even openly complained about the lack of clinical data on children. The FDA has also backed off its claim Ivermectin is not an anti-viral (it is), and expert panels are taking real issue with some of the 'repurposed, but still under patents' drugs that failed against the flu, and are known to be less-than-safe. And the science hasn't changed, the politics has... on everything from masks to how effective natural immunity always has been.
Group 3: Silent Majority that believed #1 more initially, but now realize #2 had a point that the science hasn't changed.. we've just censored the experts, until more recently.
More and more people realize this is not only turning more into something like Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos, but the same experts that were right about them, have been right about SARS-CoV-2 and Pharma from the get-go ...
Follow the money.
We are becoming a complete oligarchy with expanded statism, and the proof is in that we refuse to manufacture a traditional vaccine for our kids, and are mandating things most western countries will not, because our country refuses to follow the science on.
And that's what really is scaring more and more Americans...
People are actually defending oligarchy-statism over individual freedom, even when no data supports the populace benefit, and we've done everything to censor those who are arguing with that actual data! Even our own, top experts at the FDA!
That's everything wrong with this country right now!
The Growing, Vocal Minority Now the Majority of Experts
A lot of experts at various journals predicted this by late 2020 and early 2021, as well as the fact that SARS-CoV-2 was too global not to go endemic, especially with the quite limited vaccine vectors being used. Many warned, even the US NIH as early as mid-2020 when ten (10) vaccines were heading towards various FDA, EMA and other EUA approvals, that none of them would be a pancea, and weren't designed to stop the spread. So it's time we all really admit ...
We really won't understand the SARS-CoV-2 virus, its variants and the strategy to attack COVID-19, until later this decade.
Experimenting With Combinational Protocols Will Be Key
This is why, while I don't agree with a select few that Ivermectin is a pancea, and I'm not for overdosing with it ... I'm also not against the FLCCC and others on their 'protocols.' Why? Because no one really understands what is working, no different than during HIV/AIDS, and even back then, Ivermectin was proven to be an anti-viral. I don't think it's a particularlly strong anti-viral, and definitely not in FDA-approved doses.
But considering not only are retrovirals not working against any CoV, but it took a good decade to figure out not only retrovials, like AZT, to combat HIV/AIDS, but what 'protocols' and combinations to use to improve conditions ... we have to experiment with proven safe drugs and, more importantly, combinations. It's just reality. Re-purposing failed flu and other drugs are just about the patents, just like why we only have mRNA vectors, instead of proven, tradtional ones.
FLCCC as an Example of Real Progress Mislabeled 'Misinformation'
Which brings me back to things like the FLCCC and individual doctors. What the FLCCC is not saying is that Ivermectin is the cure. What the FLCCC is saying, in their protocols, is ... "These are all the proven safe medicines and supplements we know that are actually improving conditions. Over time we'll figure out what is better, and what was superfluous. Because right now, no one knows what really works for sure, but our protocol does so far."
Just like with AZT. It wasn't AZT alone. It sucked. But it was with other compounds in a specific protocol, that it did. And far better than the horde of patent-protected, attempted HIV vaccines or HIV-specific medicines introduced.
Like Theranos/Holmes, We Have To Call Out Conflicts-of-Interest, And Not Censor!
This is why we have countless 'Open Letters' signed by tens of thousands of doctors saying ... it needs to go back to individual doctors. I cannot stress how bad the CDC and, sadly, the FDA management (not experts, most who have fled or just been bypassed) have misled everyone, and this 'certainty' that the current mRNA vaccines vectors were a pancea, when, as predicted by many of our top experts, were never going to be.
We've had traditional, proven far safer vaccines for children, and we refuse to make them available. This is our future too. And it scares me.
The US FDA Is Finally Focusing on Max Safety, not Max Effectiveness
Heck, even now, the FDA moving to recommend 8 weeks between doses for 2-doze mRNA vaccines. Why? Even though it's not as effective than 3 weeks between, it's much safer. And that tells you right there ... the risk-reward isn't so 'absolute,' especially the younger we go.
We're finally more focused on 'safer' than allegedly 'more effective.'

I think we're all going to be looking at Big 12 games with more interest this year.
Even though the Big 12’s membership won’t change in 2022, it still feels like the league has a lot to prove to the national media and potential telecast partners. The league needs its best teams to find a way into playoff contention, and the league needs those best teams to be anyone but Oklahoma or Texas.
....
The Big 12 also needs strong seasons from its incoming members. Cincinnati almost certainly will not be able to return to the playoffs, but the Big 12 is hoping the Bearcats don’t fall off the map.
Houston and BYU could both be in for big seasons, and that would help the New Big 12’s cred a great deal. Meanwhile, UCF will be looking to bounce back after a season that was good but not up to its standards.

UCF's 211 pt class would ranked #3 in New Big 12: (NOTE: BYU's class has 193 pts...but sometimes thats hard to grade as they have some 23 and 24 yr old guys who have completed their 2 year mission trips that were signed years ago but are now the size of giants)

This whole deal is ridiculous. I dont necessarily agree with her take on the holocaust not being about race, because the Nazis said that there was a superior one, but she made a valid point worthy of discussion. Judaism isn't a race. People with disabilities are not a race. Why is it off-limits to discuss the subtleties and complexities of what happened? It's kind of like the story about how Anne Frank died; people just think she was thrown in an oven, even though she died from typhus. How and why is that a controversial thing to say?

One hopes that in the near future some of our College of Engineering and Computer Science grads can start hitting it big with unicorn startup companies and slide some cash our way. UCF football is fighting a difficult uphill battle without big time boosters like these.
Kobe Hudson, who was Auburn's No. 1 receiver last season, recently made the move to reunite with Gus Malzahn at UCF in Orlando. Last week he appeared at his first UCF press conference.
"I made the decision because when I went to Auburn, Coach T-Will and Gus made me feel at home," Hudson said. "I already had a relationship with them from my freshman year at Auburn, so I felt this would be a good place because I know they care about the kids on the team."
The former LaGrange (Ga.) Troup star didn't know much though about UCF prior to entering the transfer portal.
"I believe in Coach Gus," Hudson said. "I put my all into him and I know he's gonna put his all into me. It was a no-brainer. I really didn't know too much, but I know wherever Coach Gus is it's going to be a winning program."
In 2021, Hudson led the Tigers with 44 catches for 580 yards and four touchdowns. The addition gives UCF a formidable returning group between Hudson, Ryan O'Keefe and Jaylon Robinson.
"As a receiving corps, we're all different," Hudson said. "We've got guys fast guys, guys that can go up and catch and we've got route runners... Jaylon is fast and plays bigger than he is. O'Keefe is fast. I think the receiving corps can be one of the best in the country."
He did see parts of UCF's win against Florida in the Gasparilla Bowl.
"I watched a little bit of it," Hudson said. "I know O'Keefe had a good game. That showed me they can compete with anybody in the country. Florida is a SEC school with a lot of good athletes."
Right now, Hudson is slated to wear No. 2 this season though his preferred number has always been No. 5 (he was wearing a 5 pendant at the press conference). At UCF, the No. 5 currently belongs to running back Isaiah Bowser.
"Me and Zay, we're really cool, but I'm trying to talk him out of (No. 5)," Hudson said. "He's wishy washy. He's like, 'I'm gonna give it to you' one day and the next day he doesn't want to give it to you."
Hudson will have three seasons of eligibility remaining.
