That shit killed my Mom. I wasn't pleased to find a fricken bag of Hydrocloriqine in her nightstand. Trump supporter of course. Wtf do people see in that POS?
most - "he hates who I hate" some - (much less) "the liberals are communists who will destroy the world if we let them and must be stopped at all costs"
"It's all a hoax!" "These people are just actors!" "It's just the flu!" "People die all the time!"
Yea, and the flu decimated entire villages and towns killing tens of millions before we even understood it. But explaining to people who think themselves as medical professionals has about as much usefulness as fucking a brick wall.
The funny thing is I didn't think COVID was that bad in the beginning but I still played it safe, like I didn't wear a mask much but I also didn't go to crowded places and I switched to online shopping for food. And I was fine. (When I actually read up on COVID I wore that mask like it was a holy relic wording off vampires
I still wear a mask indoors at gatherings - so, classes, supermarket, work, public transport. I don't outdoors or at friend's places when there's few people because that turned out to be important for me socially. Every time I think of stopping at work, for example, another wave hits. A colleague lost 70% of the vision in one eye. I can deal with being the only one, haven't got a cold in two years.
Good deal. I still see people here and there wearing masks. I assume they have their reasons, so I give them a wide berth. My youngest just had pneumonia. I was avoiding everywhere until I knew we were cleared. I didn't mask up because we simply weren't around people.
I avoided any and all indoor meetings and outdoor crowds for a long time, because a friend of mine has a progressive muscle paralysis, affecting her breathing, too, and I wanted to keep seeing her (masked, outdoors). Then I moved away and had to make new friends, build a network, so that's when I switched to what I'm still doing now. I get that not everyone sees the same trade-offs I do, I'm still surprised so few people wear masks. Best cost-benefit ratio, imho.
We have more information in retrospect. Only N95s and distancing were effective. These masks were rarely available except for healthcare workers, and distancing was poorly communicated. There was a time we were allowing for cloth masks, made from old clothes, poorly worn, to be worn in close proximity with others, which were very ineffective but projected safety. I pity everyone who is poorly informed and die as a consequence.
I am still sad. He and a lot of other people will never get the chance to change their minds. And yes, they probably took out a lot of others on the way.
Id say "I wouldn't mind because his death would've taught others a valuable lesson" but it became clear VERY quickly that everyone attached their identity to "not wearing masks" that no deaths could convince them otherwise, between parents saying that they don't regret anything after their kids die or wives/husbands having maskless parties while their loved one are literally gasping for air over zoom, there is LITERALLY no hope. Many of the people who died waited until they were at deaths door
I mean be sad about that, the others he infected. If willfully ignorant people selfishly ignore advice during a pandemic and die, too bad. There's so much in this world to be sad for, I'll direct my tears somewhere worthwhile, there's loads to choose from.
Only two months younger than me, appears to be less fat than me, and yet, I'm still here, never caught COVID, wore a mask, and am vaccinated. Oops. Guess I bought into the hype of not dying.
The mildly infuriating part of that? Cops counted dying from covid as a line of duty death, even if it was directly connected to a refusal to vaccinate.
look, the issue is, it would have to decimate like 92% of the police force to solve the issues we want solved.
And losing that many police would cause an issue. As much as I dont like them, their threat of violence is currently keeping republicans from just wholesale slaughtering anyone they dont like out in the open.
Forty years ago, I got a mild virus. Like many who got COVID, and many who got sars1 15 years ago, I never recovered, and have missed out on my whole life. There is no prospect of a cure (have read about a thousand papers at this point) in under two decades at best. Vaccination isn't very good at preventing this. It started out at 50% protection from long COVID. And got worse. Even as we accepted that vaccines were literally the only thing we were willing to do, and repeated waves
Crash through the population disabling some that got lucky the first time. Wearing a mask and avoiding exposure is about all you can do to reduce your risk of becoming undead.
I live in Tx. Our local ERs now have a 8-10 hour wait. HIPPA is also out the window due to no exam rooms being empty. You’re lucky to get a chair in the hallway. All due to those asshats who either don’t believe in the ‘plandemic” or just won’t get vaccinated due to the supposed long term effects. My own elderly mother has missed out on care ‘cause she just could get seen. Kidney stones. I no longer have any sympathy for them. I’m on dialysis myself. The clinic got winnowed by Covid and it’s/1
Yeah my sister died from surgical complications cause every fucking nurse, doctor, etc was all taken up by the plague rats. I feel for those who did everything they could to avoid catching it, but the ones who waved their bare ass around daring the 'mild flu'? Fuck those guys. You wanted to buy into survival of the fittest? Well guess what, you weren't fit. Buh-bye. Stop wasting resources that needy people actually deserve.
Having only just caught Covid for the first time, I have no idea why these morons wouldn't take it more seriously. I have a mild case and it sucks out loud. I will never forgive these idiots for dragging it into their bullshit culture wars.
Because that means allowing others to tell them what to do, and those useless shits don't accept that- They are allowed to tell you what to do, you are not allowed to tell them what to do.
They were HAPPY to take some along with them. The scariest shit I heard from them was how they'd rather die "and go to heaven" than wear a mask or get vaccinated.
Even if there were a diety, its morality could be so foreign to us that it could be unknowable. There's no point in trying to appease one moral code or the other. Just be yourself. We should try to be the best us we can be, while helping others to do the same.
The best part is, this dude was an Army Veteran. He probably got the Antrhax shot, just like I did; the literal brain hemorrhage causing LAVA in your veins shot. But no the covid shot is DAAANNGGERROUS.
I know a guy who said (paraphrasing), "Of course I got the COVID vaccine, when I joined the military they injected me with dozens of things. When I asked why they were, they said, "Shut up! Move along!" and so no, I'm not worried about what's in the COVID vaccine."
Someone can be ignorant without their life losing all value. These people were fools, but their deaths are still tragedies that leave grieving family and friends.
No, its not a tragedy. A tragedy is someone who dide everything right and still was murdered by one of these self absorbed trashfires. It's comedy when they advertise how stupid they are, brag about how stupid they are, and then finally die to their own stupidity. It's fucking hilarious and they deserve what they get. They were told what covid was. They knew what it did, they saw what it did. They still chose to believe ANYBODY but the people who knew. Fuck them. Rot in piss, retard.
Ironic, coming from someone so full of hate he wants everyone who disagrees with him to die - having prejudged them to be hateful rather than potentially misinformed or foolhardy.
Those who are still on the Trump bandwagon (and I've seen many who have rejected Trump) are throwing their lot in with white supremacists. At this point, no, I no longer care about their well being because their core values include hating others for how they were born.
I hate the conservatives for their choices. It's very different.
A disagreement, to be clear, is a discussion about policy or goals.
When the goal of one side is "murder the LBGTQIA+" then it is no longer a disagreement at all. You can't have common ground when the Conservative stance is to silence or kill all those who oppose their intolerance.
I wish I had a big 'ol pile of hate to sustain this push for democracy, but I'm really just sad and tired. Ending the Conservative ideals is like putting down a rabid dog. You can't help them and you can't 1/2
risk allowing them to hurt others, so you put them out of their pain and misery and fear. Go look up dying of rabies if you don't understand this analogy.
I have a lot of conservatively fiscal politics but I can not vote for people who don’t accept the humanity of others, even if I agree with them on more things than I disagree. The simple fact that they want to legislate groups of people out of having their god given rights is enough to overlook anything I agree with them on.
YOU GADDAMN LIBRULS CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!!! I'LL SNORT A LINE OF GUNPOWDER JUST TO SHOW YOU WHAT'S WHAT jesus christ I can't keep that up, it's exhausting just pretending to be that much of a cuntwaffle. Can't imagine how terrible it must be to actually be like that.
I like how you specify the “whole year” when really there are like TWO DAYS, and maybe, to a much lesser degree, a couple of days on either side of those.
Millions of people died and fucknuts like this endangered others, not just themselves. Saying I wish the consequences were worse says to me that more innocent people should have died.
Just like how the deniers not believing in science doesn't make science go away it also didn't make science any less effective at protecting them despite their stupidity and many attempts to get themselves killed. Even just a single person that did the right things ended up protecting the deniers, wonderful individuals that would've gladly killed the responsible people, both on purpose and through ignorance.
