Muscatine Journal's David Hotle Doesn't Understand Science and Hates Free Speech

Muscatine Journal's David Hotle
No, kids, that's not a mug shot or a yearly photo from some "offender" web site.  That's an actual photo of David Hotle of the Muscatine Journal.

Hotle got a story reprinted in the Cedar Rancid Gazette (archive link) about the formerly impeached, definitely morbidly obese, Fascist Democrat Mayor of Muscatine, Diana Broderson, who wants to force everybody there to wear masks and have the police enforce it.


Inside Hotle's story was this bit of propaganda:

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there are recent scientific studies showing face coverings help reduce the spread of the virus.

Cloth face masks are intended to protect others — not the person wearing one.

“Everyone should wear a cloth face cover in public settings and when around people who don’t live in your household, especially when other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain,” the CDC advises.

Which scientific studies about face coverings?  Certainly not these controlled studies.

Hotle is referring to this CDC page and these studies.

When you cherry pick so-called "scientific results", you're engaging in propaganda.

The CDC doesn't say that everybody should wear a face mask or a face covering.  They recommend it.  But then the CDC also assumes that everybody is sick, or at least asymptomatic, and we've seen a lot of stories out from places like the World Heath Organization saying that asymptomatic transmission is "very rare" (archive link).


Have you noticed that every totalitarian bastard out there likes to quote the CDC, or refers to the CDC, but can't be bothered to dig into anything the CDC says?  And if you question the robot referring to the CDC, or provide legit skepticism, then somehow you're the one who doesn't fucking love science.

Muscatine County has supposed had a higher death rate than nearby Scott and Johnson counties, but who are they?  How old were they?  Did they weigh as much or more than David Hotle and Diana Broderson?  Did they also have other health issues?  Were they tagged with COVID as the reason for death even though it was something else because of the money?  How many died recently?  Hotle's article doesn't mention any of this.  Hotle does mention that it's legally questionable, but don't think the Democrats in Iowa haven't pre-sorted that issue out for the courts the same way they did with gay marriage and the state's minimum wage.  There's a reason why that dictatorial mayor in Muscatine went first with an illegal mandate and then voiced that she would have cops with guns and the power of caging people to enforce it.  The District court protected her fat Democrat ass after she got impeached in 2017 (archive link).

As far as increased positive tests are concerned, we are doing more testing now.  Who knows if the tests are reliable?  How can we be sure the data isn't being manipulated?  That doesn't mean everybody should be wearing a face mask, but the Democrats (and some Republicans) sure want to impose that on everybody.

As far as David Hotle is concerned, he's definitely another ugly fucking asshole in the media who hates free speech.  Just read this  (archive link):

Some people say Donald Trump is doing a great job. Others say he’s the worst POTUS ever. I think we can all agree though that someone really needs to take that Twitter phone of his away from him.

Free speech for me, but not for thee.

"Someone really needs to take take Twitter phone of his away from him"

Spoken like a true Fascist asshole.

But it's OK for that treasonous Thai cunt Tammy Duckworth of Illinois to get on TV and say that we should tear down statues of the Father of our country, George Washington.


Too bad the Iraqis didn't have better aim on her.
