Yeah, because some large fraction of ultraorthodox Jews refused to listen to public health authorities and insisted on holding giant maskless weddings. Less to do with fictional genetic engineering, more to do with repeated obstinacy in the face of public health.

Why are we giving this guy attention?

He won't be 82 when it comes his time to serve. That s literally the only up side I can think to this lunatic.

There is a problem here.

This website quotes the new York post, which Is a domain known to spam fake news. Many users have blocked the new York post, for this reason.

By quoting the new york post, from another domain, it comes down to bypassing the block decision of the users.

Hi, Grumpy! There’s literally a video of him saying it in the New York Post article.

Hi, Spammy! Stop spamming everything you see on the interweb and quote the initial source.

You would have objected to the original source, going by your first comment, soooooo…

And didn’t you block me? Why are you even here? Go read some of that “real” news you want so badly.

Have a lovely day, Grumpypants~ 💕

I have no interest in interacting with you again. Bye~

These inane arguments make me feel at home here. It’s like I never left Reddit <3

It's not OP's problem to solve. Take it up with Raw Story, or block them by domain here:

...if you're really upset about it.

It is OP's problem. It comes down to "quote the original source".

JFC, you really wanna keep digging? People with your attitude are why we can't have nice things.

You call this "good thing"? Lol, we call it the american circus. Keep it for trash subs where it belongs. Those people want attention and people like you naively give it to them. Who's next? Hunter biden? Marjorie stuff? Keep it for trash subs.

IKR? This is the 2nd weird ass argument I've gotten in on Kbin this evening. Either it's a full moon or Mars is in asshole or something. People are stupid and punchy tonight.

Dude has come at me grouchy before because he didn’t like an article I posted, because it wasn’t “serious” news. He seems to think he’s the arbiter of what Should Be Posted or something.

On the plus (?) side, looks like blocks are still a work in progress, since he supposedly blocked me over a post about snake research, yet still sees my posts and comments. That’s good to know before blocking folks.
