And that’s basically it!
There’s a 3 part series on the Reveal podcast about how the numbers were tracked. It wasn’t the CDC. It wasn’t anything federal trump established. It was 2 guys at The Atlantic collating data of each state individually and putting it together. They had rotating volunteer helpers. That was it.
And the federal government, and everyone else, received the data from them.
Find a way to connect to those you disagree with.
I'd rather find a way to integrate them into society in such a way that they aren't actively trying to destroy it on multiple fronts as if it's some sort of prank
Someone didn't read the article...
Fuck that shit. Let those dickheads get their faces eaten off.
This. I don't want to "seek common ground" with Klansmen and fascists. Their beliefs disgust me.
so, it was only trump voters who died from the inept covid response, or did our side get swept up and decimated, dying in the worst ways, choking and drowning on our own bodily fluids, unable to breathe, unable to say goodbye to our loved ones, bodies piling up. i dunno maybe i dreamed that.
Uh, what? What is your point here? That good people are going to die?
...yeah, we voted in Trump. Everyone knows.
The article is not written for them.
So basically a reminder that, beyond all the mind killer politics memesphere we have integrated into our cortex, the other is also a human being and as such, we have the same capacities/capabilities as them and they have the same capacities/capabilities as us as neither are superior to each other.
Huh.
I don't think that will fit here
The writing is very reminiscent of a satire piece. You can see that from the parts I quoted.
Share this everywhere, folks!

I mean, we could also actually tear it down, but that's not going to happen, so I guess that's good advice.
