The US had a 2x mortality rate of Canada. 6x higher compared to South Korea, 10x of Japan the first two years of Covid. Even going with the lowest number, about 500,000 Americans could have survived with even marginally competent leadership. One that might not have…

1. Disbanded the Pandemic response team Obama set up.
2. Undercut the messaging from the CDC because Trump couldn’t handle Fauci having a higher approval rating than him.
3. Spewed constant misinformation about everything from bleach, sunlight to ivermectin while professionals were desperately trying to do their job.
4. Intentionally dragging his feet on the relief effort because someone told him that it was hitting the cities first and the Democrats would be most affected.
5. Goddamn masks. All he had to do was go on TV and tell his little cultists to wear the damn things, and we could have prevented so much of the deaths that came from the original strain/Delta. (Not Omicron)

… Hitler killed less Americans than Trump did. That’s just facts.

The last two months have been a goddamn rollercoaster.

It almost makes me wonder if we really are in a sim and someone is just pressing buttons to fuck with us and see what we do.

Yeah, but they got rid of those, didn’t they? Elon is going full throttle in the OTHER direction. I mean, clearly one is worse than the other. I’m sure from a money perspective, it didn’t make sense to shut down /The_Donald. Elon would LOVE to have that crowd.

I mean I agree, I didn’t like what they were getting up to, that’s why I’m here, but as bad as Twitter? Comon. Have you heard Elon lately?

I don’t feel like retyping my last comment, so just click my name and read my most recent one.

Gore’s whole thing since he lost the election was global warming. Carter had solar panels installed in the white house that Reagan took down. Gore spent the last 24 years trying warn people about global warming. You got another hot take there, hoss?

When you’re done telling yourself how good of a person you are for taking a stand on an issue we created because we didn’t want Jews in our country either after WWII, may I remind you that the last time the US had a Republican president and a terrorist attack, we murdered 4.5 million people.

That’s still ongoing. ISIS exists because of OUR actions.

Which still doesn’t hold a candle to the countless people who will be dying in the coming decades in the least developed parts of the world thanks to us completely abandoning our responsibility to mitigate global warming, as a country that produces a quarter of all global pollution/waste, 5x the global average per capita.

A truly astounding number, taking into account that we are a country that doesn’t even produce much of anything anymore. At least China makes shit.

We pollute for FUN.

A situation that could very well have been avoided if another 1000 people bothered to show up to vote for Gore in Florida instead of sticking to their ‘principles’.

But I’m glad you got to get your figurative rocks off taking a stand. It’s not you and your ilk playing brinkmanship in this election could very well result in the US diving off a cliff into full on climate change denial that will kill billions in the coming decades.

Who cares, right? The important thing is, you’re fighting for a cause. It matters, by extension, YOU matter.

Real happy for you.

Fair, but if the excuse is that you can’t get the information elsewhere, that’s just not true. I’d rather give reddit the page views and clicks over Facebook or Twitter.

At least over there, Nazi content actually earns you a ban.

I mean, I’ve never had a twitter account but I’ve heard it plenty. Just peek over at /r/conservative once a week or so.

I finally got around to deleting Facebook this year too when I found out they’ll cross post your Instagram stuff to Facebook if you don’t click a box somewhere.

I get a lot more stuff done without the doomscrolling.
