Wuhan Flu

It’s probably nothing: Monkeys ‘escape with COVID-19 samples’ after attacking lab assistant

Without fossil fuels, we’d be drowning in lung juice.

China keeps giving the West new reasons to decouple.

One Flu Out Of The Wuhan Nest: So they kept returning to the Tongguan mine, the source of RaTG13, collecting more and more samples. Here’s a 2018 paper in Chinese. “Uninteresting”, riiiight.

  1. Time to cut China out of the West!

    Yes we can produce our own goods. We were fine before we gave the Chinese our technology and help after the Japanese crushed them in WW2.

    We can be great again without them now.

    1. “Yes we can produce our own goods. ”

      But it would be awfully stupid. Feel free to fund your own autarky with your own money.

      Oh and it’s not ‘our technology’. There is no ‘we’.

      “We can be great again without them now.”

      LOL their USG debt purchases are keeping America alfoat.

      1. Yea, it’s OUR technology that’s why they regularity steal it.

        We helped dig most of them out of the little virus infested mud hootches the Japanese left them in. Sure is looking like a big mistake now, but it’s good that people around the western world are catching on.

      2. So how does UnMe propose to pay for all that stuff from China without us making anything? Government paychecks? Perhaps he thinks we can deliver food to China with Uber Eats?
        Their would be no need for that debt purchases if everything was made here and everybody was working.
        That technology is stolen from the intellectual labor of westerners.

        1. Yes, and our TAXES that helped fund the Aid, the technological resources, the University studies and grants to develop the things the Chinese stole for starters. It’s OUR Technology.

          Outside of Pagodas and Kobe ponds, the West has essentially built modern Asia.

      3. As far as trolling goes, I give you 4 out of 10 and then only because half of the baboon troop can’t suss out you’re a troll.

        1. LOL – the only Troll here is you, as far as “Social Justice” should be concerned is that you may as well have personally killed those poor people in and around China with your bare hands. You certainly have aided and abetted with your pro-communist Chinese propaganda.

    We should stop monkeying around. They don’t want Aussie barley or Canadian canola? Great. No food for you.
    Everybody hates the Chicoms including millions of Chinese.
    WW3 is looming anyway and its with them and Iran, North Korea, but the Russians are pretty doubtful especially if sanctions were lifted.
    They need to be bombed into the stone age.

    1. FOOD. Indeed Buddy.
      China has what…7% Arable land. Thats it..!!
      How do you feed 1.4Billion from that pittance.?

      Oh wait a minute…the CCP could give a shit right.?
      So what if 500,000,000 million die of starvation – no problem…theres still 900Million left.
      They (CCP), could give a shit….That’s what i think. You can bet your boots those high enough in the party will not go without.

  3. “It is the latest example of the highly intelligent, red-faced rhesus macaques taking advantage of India’s nationwide lockdown to combat the spread of coronavirus.”
    More intelligent than that journalist, obviously.

  4. If China’s stupid tariffs on barley are reason for decoupling I guess that goes double for Trump’s various attacks on trading partners.

    1. Another stupid comment. Time to cut off from China. Trump seems to be the one who recognized the true enemy and that is clearly China.

      1. UnMe has nothing to offer but deflection. Get back to me when Trump starts taking innocent businessmen as hostages, creates concentration and organ harvesting camps and lies so a pandemic can spread around the world.

        1. Isn’t it supposed to be working diligently away at his chob? Lunch was over 15 minutes ago, chump.

  5. While I’m sure our glorious leader will happily leap up and offer Canadian barley to replace the Aussie stuff, I wonder if China will take it given how we didn’t give back Meng as they demanded.

  6. Why is it that the only country that gives a proper view of China is Australia?

    1. Because Australia has been in China’s cross-hairs from the minute they figured out it’s resource wealth + isolation from the rest of the western world.

      China’s been buying up Australian resources faster than Saskatchewan, and putting little Mao’s through the Student Visa/never leave programs for decades.

  7. Progressive mantra;Surrender early surrender often.
    Just as vote early,vote often.
    Liberal Style creatures have no place in civil society,except as examples of a state of mind to be mocked.
    A careful consideration of the long term damage and cost of allowing “Liberal Style creatures” to hold any position of power,leads to the inescapable conclusion.
    Ban them.
    Banishing all do-gooders,parasites and leeches reduces the stress on all productive members of society.
    In the choice between Chile or Venezuela, a spring cull and judicious use of the ice floe breakup,would provide great theatre.
    Providing a socially useful role for those ugly actors who demand power above all.

    And given the performance to date of my “employees” in the “civil service” paying more taxes to provide them with a pension,for their wonderful work..is insane.

    How much longer can the parasites “pay” themselves,with the producers shutdown?
    Best part of this fiasco,Parliament is not an essential service.
    So what purpose do they now serve?

    And the dreaded Wuhan Flu,corona virus extraordinaire,when the wailing and gnashing of teeth are all over,what will be the real toll?
    I am so tired of hearing this” We have no herd immunity” followed by “50 to 70 % of those infected are asymptomatic,suffering no side effects at all..”

    Is it just me?
    Or is there something a touch idiotic about that observation?
    So what constitutes “Herd Immunity” anyway?

    1. It’s not just you John….trust me.
      That has been a question buggin me for a cpl months….they do al these tests – blare out loudly we have 3578 Cases….which means what exactly.? (and quietly also state our death toll is now 45)….I’m betting that out of the 3578 cases 70+% are those who tested POS for ANTI BODIES and as such are now immune.

      Numbers, and the Bastards at all levels of Govt using the GOEBBELS approach. Lie and Lie often. What else is new.??

  8. Gee. Now, do you suppose Canada’s brave farm orgs might be urging turdo to keep on licking Xi in the hope of taking over that barley trade?

    I know,I know….another stupid rhetorical question…

  9. No mention on the size of the gang of monkeys I could see, but this could be really bad if there are 12 of them.

    What alternative would you propose to grain farmers?

    A buddy stopped by yesterday for a beer. He just spent 5 weeks seeding. Sure there were some rain delays (few) but these guys are farming BIG acreage.

    I know a guy who is farming 50,000 acres. He has the where with all to combine with a few others and negotiate grain sales but few do.

    Farmers are at the mercy of the tyrant. We get a stupid government with a goofy trade policy and these farmers are down the tube.

    1. “What alternative would you propose to grain farmers”

      As far as the Chicomms go, about the same kind of alternatives we had respecting trade with Nazi Germany.

      1. Ok, but as I point out above these farmers are at the mercy of the tyrant.

        The brave farm orgs are powerless to do anything when it comes to foreign trade.

  11. The last bit of the spectator article contains a huge assumption;

    “If we are smart, the Wuhan Flu will help give us a true appreciation of the value of fossil fuels and how vital they are in the medical industry – driving another nail in the alarmists’ coffin.”

    If we are smart…um… no one is as dumb as all of us put together (present company excepted of course).

    1. alec…. there is nothing quite like mob mentality. We are seeing it in the US as blacks destroy their jobs and neighbourhoods, yep sure did help their cause, and anger even though the anger is valid, their actions made them look like fools. The arrest of the cop should have been their first goal. Of course they did not follow the prescribed social distancing rules, shame shame. Of course wearing masks legally will help some people out of a potential arrest. I was denigrated for saying that masks are only good to prevent facial recognition at one site a day or two before this happened, golly looks like I was right. All of that said in response to your, “no one is as dumb as all of us put together”, without fossil fuels we return fairly quickly to the 1700’s, burning trees and maybe some peat and maybe some coal, mined by hand.

      1. Well maybe the black people of Minneapolis should be fined for the Carbon Footprint their creating with all this building burning.

        That is a hell of allot of Carbon! They need AOC to start drafting legislation.

  12. On that “Without fossil fuels, we’d be drowning in lung juice. ” article…without fossil fuels that man made Chinah Virus would still be wreaking havoc IN Chinah. Any coming across the sea to here would be met with 24-36 lb naval guns, iron shot from Pennsylvania, fired by some of that Chinah invented black powder and manufactured with bird guano from Chile. Sail power only, how green.
    Up in Kanader, we’d be still digging out from winter and sloughing off the grime of winter lock downs, scurvy running rampant and spitting out teef.
