... making it the third leading cause of death for people globally, just behind heart disease and cancer.

...global flu mortality averages between 250,000 to 500,000 per year.

But, as some folks remind us.... Covid isn't a big deal.

 

[CornusKousa]

So not all that big of a ultra-overhyped deal.

But big pharma got many billions if not trillions... the main objective of this "co-fee fee" exercise we went through in 2020.

and 67% of cop deaths in the past year were due to covid. if that figure had been shootings or stabbings, the cops would be rioting in the streets, instead they are fighting vaccination. which should tell you something about the mental acuity of the boys in blue.

Here in America, we are each free to choose how to live with this endemic.

MAN does that send the control freaks reeling with rage too.

Damn right.

The freedom to be deliberately stupid and have that stupidity kill you (and other people) is probably the greatest part of being American.

Not our fault you don't want to protect yourselves and instead want to force us to protect you.

If you want to live in a space suit to prevent infectious disease, that's on you,

But you don't get to force the rest of us into it though.

GAWD BLESS M'ARICUH!!!

IrezumiKiss is free to live in isolation, free to double mask, and free get as many booster shots as the government will provide. He can enjoy the same lifestyle as the Chinese population. Given his degree of fear, these choices make sense for him. They will reduce his anxiety. We’re all dealing with this endemic in our own ways.

So you're saying the vaccines don't work?

Freedom, baby! Except I'm not living in isolation or in fear because I'm being responsible! And Chinese food rocks!

No, I'm saying that the freedom to be deliberately stupid and have that stupidity kill you (and other people) is probably the greatest part of being American.

How is that stupidity going to kill someone? Can't they go and get the vaccine and be protected?

Yes, but vaccines don’t protect against the anger and bitterness that many Karens feel toward those who are not vaccinated.

 

[Fuzzy1975]

Yes, but vaccines don’t protect against the anger and bitterness that many Karens feel toward those who are not vaccinated.

But if you are not angry at, or bitter towards those who are not vaccinated, then your not a "Karen" right?

I think a person who has no medical reason to not have the vaccine, is just selfish.

Does that make me a Kent then?

 

[rae121452]

this is something we actually agree on!

i don't care who gets vaccinated. if someone chooses not to and then dies of covid, i consider that as just a natural filter on the gene pool. i'll take every booster they offer me and i avoid other people anyway.

 

[Bud_Spencer]

Yes, but vaccines don’t protect against the anger and bitterness that many Karens feel toward those who are not vaccinated.

This whole pandemic has been a massive opportunity for the Left to bully people, their favorite thing in life.

 

[pecksniff]

From you. That's the point of a mask or vaxx mandate.

 

[CornusKousa]

From you. That's the point of a mask or vaxx mandate.

No, the point is control and submission.

It's not my job to protect you from me.

It's YOUR job to protect you.... not everyone else's.

Again, if you want to live in a fucking space suit wearing 20 masks like a fucking retard that's your bidniz.... rock on.

But you don't get to force the rest of the country into being a fucking retard with you. That's not how freedom works.

 

[CornusKousa]

Freedom, baby! Except I'm not living in isolation or in fear because I'm being responsible! And Chinese food rocks!

https://c.tenor.com/_31gH9b_0VsAAAAM/usa-flag-american.gif

SEE!!!

Take responsibility for you and yours.... and then you don't have to worry about the fucking retards 100's or 1,000's of miles away are doing.

 

[pecksniff]

No, the point is control and submission.

That kind of thinking does not play any part in disease-containment measures. Will you all please drop that preposterous canard once and for all?!

 

[Bud_Spencer]

If it's disease containment you want, then traditional quarantine measures should suffice. Put the infected behind protection, not the uninfected.

 

[CornusKousa]

That kind of thinking does not play any part in disease-containment measures.

So then why all the authority and control???

There is only 1 reason for the totalitarian control freakism.... cuz control freaks gotta control freak.

Will you all please drop that preposterous canard once and for all?!

I'm not into ignoring reality and facts like you.

 

[CornusKousa]

If it's disease containment you want, then traditional quarantine measures should suffice. Put the infected behind protection, not the uninfected.

But that's just NOT enough totalitarianism and centralized authority for Peck's liking.

 

[Fuzzy1975]

So would you agree, given your statement above, that vaccine passports would be a great way to quarantine those who are, or possibly are, infected? Yet still leave the rest of us to go out and enjoy...*chuckles*

What would vaccine passports tell you about someone's infection status? Nothing. No, they'd be useless.
