So the CDC is going to come out with "what vaccinated people can do"


Really, GTFOH.  The CDC doesnt have any authority to dictate what people can do.

They are coming out with guidelines which are basically suggestions.  That's much different than enacting a law and dictating what you can or can't do.

Suggestions you say

Of course someone's always got to go to the  Nazi/Hitler button.  Read:

  • The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shirer
  • Adolf Hitler by Ian Kershaw
  • Becoming Hitler by Thomas Weber
  • Nazi Germany and the Jews by Saul Friedland


Just to name a few.  The US now and throughout its history has nothing in common with Nazi Germany.  CDC or other suggesting people maintain social distancing or wear a mask is only that - a suggestion.  If you don't want to do it, don't do it.  There's been a guideline about eating according to the food pyramid since the 1960s, and I'm not aware of anyone sent to a concentration camp for not eating their vegetables.  


Whenever a Democrat is in office, he/she is not one step away from Stalin.  Whenever a Republican is in office, he/she is not one step away from Hitler.  Those comparisons are so meaningless and frankly a huge insult to the people who had to live in those time.  Hell, read about the 1936 Olympics in Berlin and what life was like there at the time.  This is pre-death camp and I can assure you that no one in the US faces anything similar to the Nazi government of those years.  

Weak try.

The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich is most likely the best ever written on the subject.



Yes, terms like Nazi, Fascist, Dictator etc get tossed around frivolously.

Those two political parties sounds awful, I don't support either of them

No, but there is a movement to restrict/eliminate the consumption of animal protein, which is scary

Of that I will not abide.  My life without animal protein is not a happy one.  Vegetarianism is one step toward bridge jumping for me.  I have no wish to exist in a world of no steaks, BBQ or wings.  None.

Sounds like hell, tbh. I'd go down in a hail of bullets before living a meatless existence.

That's crazy, what the heck is going on out your way?


WE were notified on Thursday that we were eligible and had our shots the next day. Just another example of why Youngstown is the best place in the whole wide world!

Agreed.  I studied European history between the wars in college (was going to teach history at one point).  Best class I ever had.
