• Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!

The Late, Great Britain?

Katie Hopkins was deported/expelled from Aussie yesterday for not wearing a mask apparently(mind you in her usual way she was making a 'scene' about it all) and in Victoria(aussie state) they've been doing the above for a while now.

The generation of peace and love, “C’mon people now, smile on your brother, everybody get together, try to love one another right now...” is in a headlong rush to create a divisive, two-tiered society of jabs and jab nots. They (we) became everything the hippy ostensibly abhorred and loathed. And then some.

Heartbreaking to not only watch, but to be associated with. The irony of still espousing a, Love will conquer all, meme, has been supplanted with, fear will conquer all. And nearly has.

BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. I guess she was a paid shill, actress for the right. Here's another questionable source: Rolling Stone. Perhaps you'll cancel the, "EXTREME RIGHT" , Mr. Clapton, now. My kind of Brit!

I’ll see your neighbor and raise you mine. ‘Janet’ was stuck on that cruise ship that ultimately docked in Oakland last year in March. They quarantined at Travis AFB for 14 days. She was 98 years old, then. Her husband, was 96. Fast forward to 2021.

They’re STILL my neighbors, only now, they’re 99 and 97, respectively. Yes, they got vaxxed this year but by all ‘Covid rights’ they should be DEAD!

Lucky? Old immune systems? Good shape for their age? You tell me.

In the Neterlands, less people have been in IC in 2020 than in the years before, the dutch Central Bureau for Statistics has announced this a few weeks ago.
The dutch government was advised in late march 2020 that the covid lockdown would save 100.000 quality adjusted life years (qaly) and that the cost would be 500.000 qaly. Basically saying, to save 1 it will cost 5. Instead of ending all measures, they doubled down and made it even worse. Mind you, that advise came from the dutch ministery of economics.

It's my understanding they did not. But while she is in pretty good shape - for 99, he is frail. My point is, if this is as deadly and contagious as they say, and they were on an 'infected', cramped cruise ship, at the onset of a 'global pandemic', they should have at least tested positive. Or worse. They made the entire ship quarantine, as I recall.

Lockdowns extended, pubs, live music and business in general, all suffering...in a country that is farther along in vaccinations than most any other. What gives, mates?

From fearless to feckless in one generation. Sir Winston Churchill is turning in his grave. He might have said something like, Fear not, dying. Fear not living. Get well soon!
The irony of our 'great' nation is that we have the Tories embracing Communism, and Labour don't like Jews?
Talk about not knowing your left from your reich.

Apologies to everyone, since this is probably the post that'll get the thread closed and/or me banned, but in my defence, it's a satirical observation.

If you believe what was being reported about Clapton a couple of years ago, he's so riddled with arthritis he can barely walk, let alone play a guitar... that story was accompanied with a photo of him leaving a hospital in a wheelchair.

How far the mighty have fallen, post Covid. Now even the great EC, right here on the Les Paul Forum, is reduced to an unworthy, arthritic has-been. His crime? He’s not a Covid/Vaccine passport shill. Let’s kick him while he’s down, all in the name of wokeness, tolerance and inclusion. Then let’s burn his LP’s in a sacrificial bonfire.
Pathetic.

Good people of LPF, there are somewhere near 800 million threads out there in the bowels of the internet discussing this very topic. Do we really need one here?
