They are plainly there to shove through their friends interests, profit off of insider information, and get out without going to jail. Every single one of them.

Our original name 2 years ago was Nexus, but we couldn't get any domain we liked regardless of contacting squatters for years. Oh well.

We did a tiny bit of work to rush it out the door in the wake of 'alternative social network' hype, sure. However, we are extremely proud of what we have created, and do truly believe that our system could foster a better environment for thoughtful discussion going forward.
Our team is monitoring this thread and would love to hear any feedback possible.
With love, H

My mother worked out on the Peloton every single day, didn't miss one workout, and said that she was fine. She experienced mild symptoms and loss of smell and fevers, but other than that she was fine.
My grandmother was rushed to the hospital because she is in the prime age range and has just about every single previous condition you could imagine for someone pushing 90. She was diagnosed with Covid and Pneumonia, felt like shit for a while, and was release and is now fine.
I am not saying the virus is not real or isn't serious, but at some point we need to stop only looking at number of confirmed cases, and start digging a little deeper before we start spreading all of this rash fear.

I am all for safety and notifying the public of immediate threats, and taking the correct precautions. But, at this point it seems increasingly that these predictions and analysis are being too quickly released with not enough information so you get great amounts of speculation which therein fuels panic.

Personally I think this entire thing is blown extremely out of proportion by the media (at least in the US, where we are rated #1 at preventing things like this). Compare it at the same time to swine flu and the results are extremely interesting.

I don't hate anyone, and as far as the devotion to poll numbers. I am one of the people that heavily doubts poll numbers, and I am skeptical of these results as well, but I also personally believe that the statement the poll is making is true.
I would be glad to debate the merits, results, methodology, sample size, or any other variable with you if you want.
