The Angry Reader: Part One

Angry Reader #1

It’s so wonderful to see you continuing to suck on the ass of your fellow gutless pussy-trump. You are exactly like the pantheon of blowhard right-wing pussies (carlson, hannity, limbaugh, coulter, ingraham, malkin, huckabee, pence, o’reilly etc.) who never served a fucking day, but sit on your fucking ass waving the flag and selling your bullshit “patriotism”. You’re just another low-life patriotism pimp. If our country had to rely on shit like you, we wouldn’t have a country. Understand this asshole- trump ain’t good enough to drink John McCain’s piss- and you sure as fuck ain’t either. I joined at 18. I’m repulsed and sickened by your absolutely bullshit “values”. Enjoy playing your pretend patriot fantasy game and the landslide victory of donnie bone-spur living down in mucho- lose-o, waiting for the indictments to come. Fuck you pussy.

KEVIN PETERS

Dear Angriest Reader KEVIN PETERS,

You certainly deserve the award for the obscenest Angry Reader I’ve received. And somehow in just nine semi-sentences, you cover the gamut of the excrement, genital, sexual, urinary, and bestial vocabulary of obscenity.

There is so much anger, so much fire here, and yet not a single ray of light to excuse your otherwise inability to understand rudimentary rules of English prose, such as how to capitalize, to use punctuation, to understand grammar and syntax, or to follow spelling rules.

Here is a suggestion for a better Angry Reader letter: turn your hatred to light and use such energy to review basic rules of English grammar syntax and normal protocol of communications. One obscenity might have some shock effect, but your string of them becomes banal and boring after the second or third.

Also try a coherent argument. I read your letter twice and still did not fathom a single theme or idea, other than, in reference to something(?) I said or wrote, you took offense at a criticism (When? What?) that I supposedly voiced against John McCain(?) whom I certainly voted for in 2008.

As for indictments to come, there may be some from John Durham. If in 2023, the Republicans were to lower themselves to the now apparently institutionalized standards established by the Democrats, then serial impeachments, nonstop investigations, and removal of House members from committees would follow.

In sum, I can’t really assess your letter, much less answer since it is not a letter at all, but a stream-of-consciousness, obscene rant, from someone incensed, but about what, no one would have any idea.

(On COVID-19)

Negative value added here: one understands less about the world and has a poorer understanding of objective facts after having read so much nonsense. So much is thrown against the wall with no substantiation: COVID “likely” escaped from a Wuhan lab (“possibly” would be more accurate, given information of which I am currently aware); what “continuing studies abroad” attest to the “usefulness” of those two drugs; Biden blamed Trump personally for “all the deaths from the virus”; that Biden claimed “no-one had been vaccinated prior to his inauguration”. All of the above is either misleading or false. Trump was in office when COVID was just flaring up and less than a year in total; Biden has been in office a full year during of COVID, so it would not be surprising if “more have now died…on Biden’s…watch”, if that is even true. Of course Hanson fails to mention widespread resistance to masking, social distancing and vaccines. Is that on Biden too? So much intellectual dishonesty here. The Sun should be ashamed of publishing such drivel.

Gary

Dear Angry Reader Gary,

I am afraid, aside from your invectives, that you are mistaken in almost everything you say—and probably deliberately so.

1) Yes, the virus most likely did escape from the Wuhan lab. We know that from sympathetic researchers and friends of Drs. Collins and Fauci, who long ago communicated via email their worries that the virus was engineered; from the efforts of the Chinese government to cover up the genesis of the outbreak; from the fanaticism of the Eco-Health people and Dr. Fauci to deny gain-of-function culpability (and their own roles in it) and to rig an international investigation; from DOD communications in which one investigator warned of gain-of-function research at Wuhan and its relationship to the outbreak; from a Canadian molecular biologist who warned the British Parliament of the man-made role in the virus’s origins, and on and on. Lawrence A. Tabak of the NIH has already sent a letter to Congress affirming that the U.S. government sent money to the Wuhan lab to enhance gain-of-function research.

2) On hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin, just google both with “efficacy”, “usefulness” and see what turns up in terms of many scientific studies from all around the world. Even the CDC has quit most of its absolute denials that in early-stage cases the two drugs’ anti-inflammatory and anti-viral characteristics have efficacy. Neither is a cure-all; both have some utility with early usage. Until COVID-19, both drugs were noted for the long and favorable cost-to-benefit characteristics, with few dangers for limited duration use.

3) Rather than cast aspersions, and make false accusations, why not simply quote Joe Biden? If you did, here he is what he demagogued about presidential personal responsibilities for COVID-19 deaths and Donald Trump: In September 2020, candidate Biden said this:

“If the president had done his job, had done his job from the beginning, all the people would still be alive. All the people. I’m not making this up. Just look at the data. Look at the data.”

On Biden’s claims no one was vaxxed until he took office (he himself was vaxxed in mid-December, despite his efforts, along with those of Kamala Harris, during the campaign to seek political advantage, regardless of the cost in lives, and to turn the public against the vaccinations), he said this as well:

“It’s one thing to have the vaccine, which we didn’t have when we came into office, but one also needs “a vaccinator.”

What is it about “which we didn’t have when came into office” that you do not understand? Biden also gave wrong information about the number of vaccination doses available when he entered office.

4) Here are the deaths on Trump’s watch, according to Johns Hopkins University. From the first case in late January 2020 to his last day in office, January 20, 2021, there were 352,000 COVID-19 deaths. Here are the death totals as of January 15, 2022: 849,754. There were 497,754 fatalities on Biden’s watch‚ or some 145,754 more deaths than during the Trump year. The greater toll is not to be entirely blamed on Biden, but I referenced it as an example of hubris, given Biden introduced the smear of presidential responsibility for “all” the people who died, and thus inevitably he met nemesis.

You misconstrue the two tenures in every way possible. Trump inherited neither vaccinations nor therapies, Yet, with commendable dispatch, the government had a viable vaccination program by mid-November 2020—if not earlier. So, Biden inherited Operation Warp Speed, new therapies, and over a year’s clinical experiences in the dealing with the virus.

What he did, however, was to neglect producing and disseminating test kits and new antiviral drugs that are now in short supply. He focused only on vaccinations rather than on treatments. And he serially misled the country into thinking inoculations would spell the end of the outbreaks, wrongly assuming there would follow no mutant variants. He discounted natural immunity. Worse, he allowed nearly two million unvaccinated and untested aliens to enter the country illegally during a pandemic. After denying that he would issue vaccinations mandates, he did just that, only to see some of them struck down by the Supreme Court.

And now? Note the CDC is not counting daily case numbers anymore; they are admitting that 75 percent of deaths involved on average four co-morbidities—as the Biden administration is pivoting to the old Trump message of coping successfully with the virus rather than the pipe dream of ending it—as Biden also promised.

I think you will see that resistance to masking (and especially to various non-N-95 brands of little use), social distancing and vaccinations were misreported: Biden and Harris were the first “anti-vaxxers” who questioned the safety of the Trump-era vaccinations; the most flagrant high-profile violators of masking were leftwing advocates of them, from Gavin Newsom and Nancy Pelosi to Dr. Fauci and AOC themselves. When the public sees a London Breed, mayor of San Francisco, or Chris Cuomo violate the very protocols they insist others follow, then the entire policy loses public support. And Latinos and blacks for all of 2021 had higher unvaccinated rates than the so-called white community.

You end with characteristic leftist anger that my views would even be published, in lieu of an argument to refute them when you could not.

Your entire letter is characterized by laziness in not even attempting to make a small effort to find quotes and facts. Many angry reader letters are just obscene rants, but your letter in some ways is far worse by its pseudo-seriousness, when in fact it has no more information than the dirty hysterics of a KEVIN PETERS.
