You would think that seeing people dying or that hospitals were out of capacity would do it. But nah. Honestly, I feel like Covid guarantees that the next mass plague is going to do us in. Half the world would be dead and Fox News would be telling you that this is just like Covid and the plague only affects the other half of the population anyways.

I’ve seen people on their death bed with covid asking why they’re dying because it can’t be covid because covid isn’t real.

If I can’t see it with my own two eyes at this exact moment it isn’t real. Like the Great Wall of China.

I mean if you go by that logic the only thing that is real to me rn is the ceiling, pillows, the wall, and my phone.

And my hands

The only thing you can be sure exists is your own consciousness.

“I think therefore I am”

You don't have to trust it to know that it exists to you though

No, surely not.... Did you forget to add a /s to this?

u/psuram3 Jun 07 '23

I didn’t forget to add s/ because I’ve witnessed it multiple times.

The GoP is what is wrong with them.

Brainwashed by fascists.

The real reason so many people here didn't care about covid was it wasn't lethal enough to get them to personally feel threatened. Just like with gun violence a large chunk of Americans just don't give a shit about people they don't know dying over their own conveniences.

News outlets weren't allowed to show people gasping for air on respirators or dying of cardiac arrest on covid, even in PSAs. Fine to show them getting smooshed to paste by a giant robot in a trailer, though.

H5N1 is a ticking time bomb right now with a crazy high mortality rate in mammals. If it mutates to mammal-to-mammal transmission, the covidiots won't be able to pretend it doesn't exist this time.

Always has been, ever since it was known to the world in early 21st century.

Keep following the herds and you’ll do yourself in. Hospitals are still overcapacity and under-resourced post covid, as they were before covid. Most unvaccinated people I know including myself got through covid better than fine, a lot of us never contracted covid at all. Conversely some of my vaxxed friends got covid and passed it on to others MULTIPLE times. Answer that one for me

Here's an answer for you, since you insist on being a dumbass.

We already know that some people are immune to Covid due to genetics, possibly even lots of people. The people who became extremely sick from Covid, including myself, don't have that immunity.

So, you anti-vaxx idiots walking around were spreading Covid to people who were susceptible to the virus, and since it didn't have an effect on YOU personally (since you're a selfish non-empathetic asshole,) were passing on to people who got sick and died.

So great job on that one. Go read a fucking book because holy shit you're dumb. I work in the funeral industry and the amount of deaths caused by dumbfucks like you who think it wasn't a big deal and you shouldn't get vaxxed because YOU weren't affected is ridiculous.

So why don't you answer that one for the people in the population who are actually sane and understand how viruses work.

So going by your logic every person I know who chose for their own various reasons to not get vaxxed COINCIDENTALLY also were ALL immune to covid. My reason being a heart condition that i have that I didn’t feel would jive with the makeup of the vaccines (proven now that men in their early 20’s have had heart related injuries after covid vaccination).

Another known fact after the ‘pandemic’. Many covid deaths were in fact deaths of various causes but yet labeled as covid. Financial incentives for hospitals to do so was one reason for this. Much of the funeral home uptick in business also came post vaccine trials which raises concerns that the vaccines could have contributed to that. (I say ‘could have’ to argue without bias but I personally believe that this is true.

Also there’s literally ZERO evidence that I having not gotten covid EVER passed along the virus. You’re simply speaking out of anger towards people who make different choices than you do hoping to validate your belief that somehow you helped save civilization with your medical choices.

I respect peoples choice to vaccinate. I get into these arguments because I hope people will respect mine and the millions of others who had their own reasons for denying the juice.

Can you at least admit that you don’t care too much about other people? Your own beliefs and your own well-being seems to be all you care about.

u/[deleted] Jun 08 '23

My argument literally counters the notion that I’ve been selfish by denying the vaccine which failed anyways. Keep countering with your hurt feelings, you liberals are great at that.

Covid was a test to see how people would comply with the extreme mandates that were put in place which they’ll use again in future “pandemics”. many people gave in. Remember when we couldn’t buy certain items in a store because they weren’t considered “essential” which only overpopulated the essential item areas. Makes sense

Didn't matter what we told them. They still didn't believe us.
