For some reason it’s hard for a lot of men to admit that in many ways women are smarter than them. That’s been my experience, anyway.

The women I’ve known in my life are for the most part smarter than the men. At least in a general sense; maybe not so much when it comes to picking a mate, perhaps…but still. Women’s brains just function better in certain situations.

It turns out women make better world leaders, too. It has been noted in the MSM recently that the only countries which took early, decisive action to forestall the coronavirus pandemic (with the notable exception of South Korea) were all led by women.

And in the case of Finland, a really hot 34 year old woman (sorry…I am a man…forgive me…)!

Heads of State in New Zealand, Taiwan, Germany and Iceland are doing a disproportionately better job of handling the pandemic than their male counterparts. New Zealand’s Prime Minister Jacinta Arden took early action to limit tourism, and she imposed a month-long lockdown on the entire country. So far only 4 deaths have been reported there.

In Taiwan, President Tsai Ing-wen’s early intervention measures controlled the pandemic so successfully that it is now exporting millions of face masks to the EU and others.

Even though there have been nearly 4,000 deaths in Germany, Chancellor Angela Merkel instigated the largest-scale coronavirus testing program in Europe early on, detecting the virus quickly enough to isolate and treat patients effectively.

All of these countries contained the pandemic through early, scientific intervention. They implemented widespread testing, easy access to quality medical treatment and aggressive contact tracing and tough restrictions on social gatherings.

And on the other end of the spectrum we have already begun to hear the shrill cries from all the greed-mongers in the USA demanding we reopen the country RIGHT NOW, at all costs, because their fake economy is about to implode into a full-blown depression if something isn’t done right away.

They are pissed-off about the government shutdown and all of those pesky ‘stay at home’ orders because the economy is about to tank. And the shit they are willing to say in public is simply mind-boggling.

Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick recently implored viewers on Fox News: “Let’s get back to work, let’s get back to living, let’s be smart about it, and those of us who are 70-plus, we’ll take care of ourselves,” he said. “Don’t sacrifice the country,” Patrick said.

Because, you know, the country cares so much about you.

Patrick even went so far as to suggest that many older Umerkins should happily risk their lives for the sake of propping up the fake economy. “No one reached out to me and said: ‘As a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the America that all America loves for your children and grandchildren? And if that’s the exchange, I’m all in,” he ranted. “That doesn’t make me noble or brave or anything like that, I just think there are lots of grandparents out there in this country like me.”

Yeah, sure…my grandparents are billionaires who live in a mansion and have everything catered to them, just like him! No worries. Needless to say, Dan Patrick is also a man.

Last week thousands of gun-toting morons protested Michigan’s ‘stay-at-home’ order at the state capitol, Lansing. A bunch of flag-waving, truck driving, honking White Trash demonstrators drove past the capitol building; some even got out of their vehicles, flaunting the social distancing guidelines. Several were fully armed!

Wisconsin Republican senator Ron Johnson questioned whether the economic impact of physical distancing was worth (Democratic) Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s stay at home’ order, claiming the coronavirus threat is less fatal than car accidents. “We don’t shut down our economy because tens of thousands of people die on the highways,” he said. “It’s a risk we accept so we can move about…” (EDITOR’S NOTE: it’s also  because we refuse to invest in our nation’s infrastructure and build decent roads or design and build safe, efficient, quality automobiles, but still…)

Johnson continued: “We don’t shut down our economies because tens of thousands of people die from the common flu.”

Yeah! So there.

Holy shit!

Because, you know, like, what’s a few TENS OF THOUSANDS of deaths among friends, right? As long as the rich folks are getting something out of it, right? Keeping the rich wealthy is totally worth dying for. Why should they have to dip into their secret offshore bank accounts to pay the bills? Seriously. It goes without saying that Ron Johnson is also a man.

The Federalist magazine has also run stories in the last few weeks urging tRump to get the economy going again, and of course they attacked Democrats – not the president – for their reaction to the crisis. “…A handful of Democratic activists created alarming but bogus data sets to scare local and state officials into making rash, economy-killing mandates,” wrote the editors, based on absolutely nothing.

Right wing psycho Glenn Beck shared the sentiment: “I would rather have my children stay home and all of us who are over fifty go in and keep this economy going and working, even if we all get sick, I would rather die than kill the country.” Beck [also a man, BTW] actually said recently on his program on Blaze TV. “(Because) it’s not the economy that’s dying, it’s the country,”

Please, Glenn, by all means keep working. I would rather have all of you die than kill the country, too.

Maybe we can finally have some fucking gender equality when his kind are all dead and gone. That is my sincere hope, anyway.
