I'm not surprised. I gave up on telling people how extra ordinarily dumb and stupid a lot of Americans are because a lot of people just couldn't belive the greatest country in the history of the world shockingly has lots of stark illiterates.if you want to know what being extremely stupid is, go to redneck areas in texas, or those areas you have mostly black/Hispanic communities. Then you will know that while America has a good educational system, the people who take most advantage of it are usually immigrants. Let me give a simple example, trump told Americans that China was paying for the tariffs and most of his uneducated supporter base swallowed it even without knowing what it means except since trump said it and making America great again is all that matters. you could get a heart attack trying to explain the meaning of word tariff.Guys you may hate your country all you want and of course many have the right to because let's face it, Nigeria hasn't really provided lots of opportunities for its citizens. However with that price also comes a boon,most of us know our right from left, most are streets art and can survive anywhere, lots of us rise above a certain level that's why a serious minded Nigerian will make it in America easily, however it may be that in a few months, American visa wouldn't be as attractive as it once was. News flash, civil unrest might start in America anytime soon, some communities are already forming militias
They have been forming militias since Trump came onboard, they can't do shit.

That means you haven't been paying attention.

Forget Hollyhood's hype and the "testimonies" given by lucky immigrant,
the US probably house the dumbest people on planet earth per capita.

Their saving grace is that the dumb have been relegated to the backbench since the
founding of the country and the smart immigration policy of attracting talents from around
the world.

But that is changing, the unmasking of America will be sealed if Trump is re-elected and
someone like him continues after him.

They wouldn't be better than any third world country.

A leader needs to be proactive and have open ears to experts. He is not a man of all trade. That's the failures of Trump.

He downplayed, underated and still boasted about preparedness. At first hit, America caved in.

This same America warned Israel in November about this pandemic and ignored the reports for economic gains.

And price all Americans have to pay.

Chairman sir, you seem to forget that unlike here in Nigeria where the president can do as he likes without reprimand from the Congress, there are a lot of things Trump can't do without Senate approval.

Trump blocked flights from China and Europe on time. Do you know their Congress passed a bill wanting to remove his ability to do that?

Trump asked Americans to adhere to CDC guidelines on time, do you know Nancy Pelosi went to China town and told people to disregard every recommendations from Trump and celebrate in Chinatown?

Please en, can you can you categorically state out what other actions he could have taken earlier that the Democrats will not have blocked?

through this pandemic, I realized people in the UK and the US are overrated. Democracy is overrated.

Chinese people, for the good of all, stayed indoors and curbed the spread. Americans used that time to exercise their freedom and debated more until it got out of hand. Sometimes, over-freedom is bad and Americans have enough this freedom.


I'm sure those protesting and trump are doing what they're doing because they know blacks are the ones dying disproportionately from this virus. They are susceptible to the virus because of underlying medical records most of them have. So, what's killing those you don't like more, why should I be kept indoors for that?

Americans make heroes out of everything. Now someone would lead a movement out of this so as to be popular or famous.

Quiet jare,you that you are not an animal go outside and contract the virus so long as you don't infect innocent people you can feel free to die from it it is part of your constitutional rights.

Awon ode.

that person you keep quoting is not worth your time or energy

it is easy to spot people who spend all their time listening to people like glenn beck and rush Limbaugh and sleep and breathe fox news

they are the new slaves

the funniest and most unfortunate part of this thread is that people think these protesters are just regular everyday Americans

but the truth is much deeper, these people were mobilized by tea party and conservative organisations to protest mostly democratic governors and make them look bad

that how they blocked the Michigan Capitol and prevented health workers from getting to work in the name of "protest"

well the person temporarily in charge of the country is an empty headed ignorant man, so his followers are just the same

after this crisis america will have a reckoning

as for these "protesters", the best thing is just to ignore them and protect your family and loved ones by keeping to the rules

You are the dumb on, sir
Those people have bills to pay.
They need to get back to work with plans. That is what they re saying.
People stayed home in Italy but the figures kept rising.
You will see how dumb you are by next month. Not everyone is as dumb as Nigeria. Work with good plans. People in the oil sector in Nigeria are still working. Workers in Aso rock are still on duty. why can't you work using the same safety method?
Even at the height of the Wuhan virus, people worked on hospitals, delivery people kept on working, food shop owners kept on working, cleanings kept on working, the security personnel kept on working. So, why can't you work with safe distancing as well?
For almost 3 weeks your country has shut down but look at the figures. Still rising. So, what is better for you? is it better to die of hunger and coronavirus at the same time?
In Nigeria people have bills and they have no connection to Aso rock money bags. They have to work.
I think the only issue is that you are in your momma's house eating free food and calling uncles for recharge cards that is why you sound this dumb.
Are you wiser than all those men there? Are you older than them for you to call them dumb? That is why I call you dumb

Bro, I have every idea of reality, people are not as scared as you think, particularly now they have had time to do nothing and think.


They are not dumb sir, they have actually thought the information on their own. They are not like Nigeria that believes everything people say because they use the title scientists. Now let me give you the facts they have seen.

This is the truth they have come to realize

1) The sickness is fatal to less than 5% of infected.

2) All scientists that screamed murder have admitted that all the model used in the beginning was exaggerated and the death rate will never have gotten to that point.

3) Antegen testing proves that much more people have already gotten it, meaning the infection rate is way higher and thus the death rate way lower.

4) That a lot of states are practically racking up all their deaths to covid-19. New York went as for as to add over 3500 deaths, without testing to that of Covid-19

5) Those most dying are a particular age group meaning specific solution can be tailored to protect those people.

With all these, you expect people to watch their source of livelihood drain, years of building disappear, probably lose their homes from being unable to pay mortgage, their relationships strained from being able to provide for their families,

bro, the lockdown was based on false models that they have realized is faulty, they have sense enough to challenge it.

Let's imagine states are racking up counts, does it warrant 42k death in 7 weeks?


Less than 5million tested in 350 million and you gunning for opening the economy.

The most dying are people with underlying ailment which is common to old people. Reasons why you can see blacks of all age groups falling victims the most.

The model was a projection which has failed, but as it stands with reality, the graph just flattened and their must be a considerable drop to assure people.

It's easier to say let them open the economy. I can say it too of I won't be in the fore-front. Of am allowed to work from home, it's okay by me. But that will be selfish of me. Do you know how many police, fire fighters, doctors, nurses, public transportation drivers and grocery shop attendant that have most their life's. Now you want to flood the places again when you not even having figures that warrant you to do such.

All this people protesting are the most cautious people. They just have self believe they can't be infected and trying to push others.

That's the hard part... half the population would have been unhappy either way. People are protesting now in spite of the strong medical evidence for lockdown. They certainly would have howled louder if the lockdown was imposed earlier.

Based on information available in February, there was general consensus by America's health professionals that it would not get so bad, and could be contained. Partly because the numbers from Wuhan did not turn out so bad (which we're now realizing was... not the whole truth, to be nice about it). The business community insisted on running, people insisted on traveling, and economists warned that shutting down things prematurely might be worse for the country... if he ran counter to that, the American public would have had his head.

OK, so it happened and the bottom fell out: in response, unprecedented support to individuals, businesses, economic sectors. They tried.

Not a fan of Trump, but honestly, no leader can navigate this issue unscathed. He isn't helping matters by aggravating anybody and everyone who does not kowtow to him, but man... it's just tough.

Sir, right now the medical evidence for the lockdown is actually losing it's strength day by day.

All the doctors are coming out to say they greatly exaggerated the death rate, and it would never have gotten to that even without the lockdown.

You think it is just to type without reasoning? People are loosing businesses, they are watching what they have built go down the drain, relationships are being strained, yet you are saying people should stay at home for a sickness that is fatal to less than 5% of those infected. Over 60% of infected will not know they have it, bro, please think well.

They are not staging any protest, they are protesting because they have realized the Democrats blew the sickness out of proportion.
And you think you made sense?
Did you ask yourself why the state governors including the ones from his party are not with him on this one?
Over 700k got infected with over 40k dead and you think it's overhyped?
The reason those people are staging those protest is because Mr. Trump lifted the lockdown which the governors did not agree to.

You can't just open the economy without instilling confidence in people. The truth is that the pandemic has eaten deep into America. 4 million plus tested in 350 million. And by Dr. Fauci, the curve is just beginning to flatten and their should be a considerable drop to signal opening the economy.

Japan tried this model and they paid for it. China has not disclosed any truth about what really happened in their domain, it's all lies. China never allowed the virus past Wuhan and yet international flights departed Wuhan. And if you saying we go by same statistics, what's the toll in China and what is in the US presently. It's not logical or feasible.

It's easy to say people should get back to work, but you can't force them to work when they net assured. Wash hand, gave and leg has been preached and numbers keep climbing. Imagine it's a free world, people will die in thousands.

This lock down has been used by countries and it worked. The whole anxiety about re opening is just for political gains.


Lockdown till when is the question. Wuhan continue international flights for people who deemed it neccesssary to travel to their countries, not Chinese flying out of wuhan to infect others.

A permanent lockdown while creating fear is unnecessary that's not how it works. The virus spread is most likely exaggerated. The whole of China wasn't on lockdown or on mass testing. The whole of US doesn't have to be on full lockdown. There are many other measures that can be applied for different states. While limiting Interstate movement.

U don't have to test the whole country to reopen. The virus is not yet a plague, everywhere isn't an epicenter. We need to stop the panic and re educate and sensitze people.

I didn't say quick reopening bt in phases and gradually with neccesssary precautions. Permanent lockdown isn't needed everywhere and for so long. It's counter productive.

Private business and government shud open with minimal staffs and all covid 19 precautions in place. Skols can be on hold cos of the population and u can't teach some.and leave some at home.

Testing can continue while the economy reopens in phases. It cannot continue as a permanent lockdown. It's not helpful.

are u a medical scientist or Nostradamus cousin?

Consider this is what we know of this Covid-19. Its shows in your body after 14days of infection, while SARS just 1 day. This while, a whole lot of people are at risk of getting it from you a healthy carrier. Community transmission is dangerous and account for 90% of spread.

Why was Spanish Flu of 1918 so deathly? History shows that then we didn't have the sort of awareness we had today. People had little personal hygiene like hand washing. People knew little of bacteria and virus causing infections etc. Then we didn't have vaccine, medical advances, technology etc.

While it's true we have these advances today, the world is also a global village today than it was 100 years ago. People can go from one part to another within a day and in large number compared to then. Back then, it took time but the spread was global over time. Covid-19 spread from one part of the earth to another within 2 months while it might have taken more than 6 months of the Spanish flu.

I'm not a medical scientist neither am I Nostradamus cousin. But I am not dumb, I study history, I follow trends, I know human behaviours and I also know the capacity of greed and selfish motives.
