skiermanNah, I'm just not a fucking idiot.

steeze_louiseImaging being so dumb that you actually write a massive paragraph on the internet expecting people to actually change their minds. When you life flashes before your eyes you will regret the insane amount of mind numbing hours you have spent on this website.

HypeBeastIt's so frustrating to see this country STILL arguing about covid, vaccines, masks, and anything else covid related. This isn't political. It's factual data. Grow the fuck up. I'm tired of high volumes, staff shortages, and burnout only because fuckers think they know better than doctors.

Additionally any healthcare "professional" who propogates misinformation is irresponsible and it's absurd. I've seen too much of that on social media too and it's nauseating.

T.L.Look, basically I'm just not going to get the vaccine. I know.... UGH I know..... I'm sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's just that I'm not getting it is all HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

skiermanThat's cool brah, you kill you.


"DURRR IMMA DO OPPOSITE WHAT PEOPLE SAY CUZ FREEDOM, TRUMP 2024 AND TO PWN LIBERALS!!!"

That's pretty much the thought process of a modern day republifuck.

hunterS.dolansonWELCOME TO MCDONALDS SIR OUR SPECIAL TODAY IS A BIG MAC AND IT ONLY COSTS 35$.

AndrewGravesSVI feel like its consistently nurses who see an article on facebook or some shit and decide to trust that over the doctors and surgeons they work with. It spreads to their friends who will trust their nurse medical professional friend. I agree it is irresponsible and just lazy to not check their sources. It is not hard to get this.

Somewhere along the line we started to give credence and equal platforms to anyone with an opinion about anything. Chances are you believe that the left or right is to blame for that depending or how you align, that doesn't really matter. A medical professional specializing in infectious and respiratory diseases should have the central and dominant voice and opinion in this because they are an expert who have spent their life learning about this topic.

Listening and trusting experts went by the wayside because everyone is so fucking determined not to be a sheep. Its some hipster contrarian bullshit that's rooted in selfishness and ego. We're at 4.5 million people dead worldwide with 600k plus in the US and people are content to ignore experts charting the best path forward to let the virus do as it pleases because its their freedom of choice to refuse being "muzzled" or a free vaccine

skiermanThat's cool brah, you kill you.

snowfinderwhat would make it cost that much?

hunterS.dolansonIt will have absolutely nothing to do with printing money. Printing money causes deflation, according to my am professor paul krugman.



(check meter)

JAHBRADORin the US, can you only be friends with people that vote for the same political party?

snowfinderWhat does that have to do with $35 burgers?

hunterS.dolansonI was joking about the deflation. The 35 $ future cost of a burger in 2030 will be due to inflation which is due to printing too much money.

skiermanYeah imagine if we fairly taxed the wealthiest people on the planet and the most successful corporations in human history, then we wouldn't need to print ungodly amounts of new money thus preventing inflation and brining tens of millions out of poverty.

Oh wait, that's socialism! Ugh, I guess we better just keep printing money of which 95% will go to the top 1% of earners who are completely unaffected by inflation.

The wealth imbalance in the world is a big problem, but the easiest lever Congress has to harness it is at the Federal Reserve. It's a band aid though, and rising prices will hurt poor people later as you pointed out. Their incomes typically grow at a slower rate than inflation.

AndrewGravesSVWhy the minimum wage hasn't at least been tied to inflation to keep the same purchasing power for workers is beyond me. Every year wages don't grow is effectively a pay cut and the fact that it hasn't increased in over ten years has grown the population of people in poverty. This happens in the face of very real productivity gains, planned obsolescence of products, and banks and industries with shit and risky business practices getting bailed out by the government. The result is wealth inequality greater than what it was during the French Revolution.

Somehow its radical to want to correct this by funding the IRS more, closing loopholes, and taxing generational wealth/ the 1% more. That would just be insane. Almost as insane as taking a free vaccine so you and people around you have less of a chance of dying in the middle of a pandemic that has killed over 4.5 million people worldwide

JemsI never understood why republicans suddenly chose to think like this it always makes me chuckle thinking i was a 14 year old conservitard at one point

boozerif you want to wear a mask, wear one. if not? don't. The ban on mask mandates in no way says you're not allowed to wear a mask. I really don't see what's so controversial about it. If you're really that scared of the virus then just don't go into high risk areas. If someone choses to not get vaccinated and refuses to put a mask on then that person has clearly made the conscious decision to take that risk. There's nothing we can do to change that persons mind and we have to start coming to terms with that. Not every republican is a Jesus loving anti-vaxxer. the crazy ones just happen to be getting ALL the press recently.

HypeBeastAbsolutely comical and infuriating that we are STILL arguing about mask effectiveness. The southern states are being absolutely moronic at the expense of their citizens, especially kids. Every bit of misinformation or arguments against masks can easily be countered with scientific evidence but people choose not to believe?! Like what the fuck. That's like your science teacher saying we revolve around the sun and you be like "nahhhhh ur wrong". Masks work. Fact. They're simple and safe to wear. Why governments across the country are debating this is mind numbing, especially as their constituents are being annihilated by covid. The same can be said about vaccines. I wholeheartedly blame trump for creating and still propagating this trend of not believing evidence based medicine and making this political. It shouldn't be. This never should have been a debate. If you told me 5 years ago we would be arguing about wearing masks or getting vaccines to save lives, I'd say you're nuts. This should be a pandemic run by those who are educated to treat and prevent it, not those with a fucking law or business degree sitting in Capitol Hill or whatever respective state/local legislative branch they're in. The legislative branch (of national, state, and local govs) should be used for support, not to combat attempts to stem the virus.

Now you can try to argue but the facts do not support alternative arguments. If you continue to argue, then congrats you have marked yourself as a moron.

VTshredder69Please provide articles in arguments. There’s plenty of studies saying masks do little to nothing If worn if worn innefectively Which is essentially 75-80% of people.


more Then half the population wear cloth masks that are not at all effective.
