You're on FB, you would know.
You realize you're saying my criticism of the lockdown and other draconian measures is nonsense because I didn't cry enough about 2.8m deaths? Great argument.
No amount of stupid shit like not sending your kids to school is going to reduce that number. A similar number is going to die eventually and with how easily the virus is mutating and spreading to animals as well, waiting till we vaccinate everyone (including the 3rd world which we have track record of not giving a shit about), before we get some mutant that vaccine does 0 shits against is wishful thinking.
I have adhered to all laws and advice I've been required to since the start of the pandemic. Including not going to work, keeping my distance (except when some smelly runner runs up behind me with his mate), wearing a mask inside, not meeting up in groups, etc.
Except for hugging in my mom (she's a doc specializing in public health) and bro when I go to visit once in a blue moon. Which is exactly my point, no one that's reading this has done everything 100% by the book. Because it's not fecking possible. I never said we shouldn't make an effort to reduce the spread of the virus. I think a lot of the measures go too far far too little return. The 9pm curfew over here is total horseshit. I can't even go for a walk by myself after work? I oppose government spying, I oppose headscarf bans, I oppose a curfew. It has nothing to do with covid deaths.
Sorry to hear about your mate, if you want to feel better by blaming people critical of keeping children out of school, like me, feel free. I once had a 14y old mate who died of a heart condition on the pitch. If only we banned uncontrolled exercise we could have saved his live
The sick children are children, DUMBstar. They're gonna touch the doorknob that has snot on it and then rub their eyes, they're gonna go near adults and forget the rules in their enthusiasm. If they need to stay isolated anyway, why the feck
Do all the other kids need to have their education compromised
Can't I not go for a walk by myself after 9pm
You have 0 evidence either of the above will even save one child. What will help is all of us isolating permanently. I guarantee you we will save some poor child's life.
They will die for the same reasons advanced aids patient with compromised immune systems will eventually die, and the poor children will feck up a lot quicker and a lot more often than the aids patient.
You're gonna need to get over the "oh the poor children with cancer" argument and decide based on cost-benefit. It's how policy works. It's part of growing up. Don't be the 14 year old vegan girl who doesn't like the idea of animals killing each other. It will happen just like kids with cancer. I believe in a God and I hate him. Have you read the old testament? He's a bad dude.
And how many people did you spread covid to and kill during all those?
Yes people dying prematurely is a bad thing. So is keeping your kids out of school (very harmful), curfews (unproven to help), and mask mandates (help very very little,
according to the head of the Dutch public health services, from NOS, the Dutch BBC)
That's a lot of dirty words for saying you disagree with his opinion. It should be easy to dismantle it now that you've said he's basically Ben Shapiro.
This describes a lot of people that agree with all the draconian shit, from your link:
Great post and I'm glad you reposted.
We really don't know if this near indefinite lockdown will prevent the 20% figure of reaching a 100%. There might as well be a new mutant somewhere in a furry little animal or in a human in a far off land that the current vaccines won't protect for. Do we go into another 2 year lockdown with violations of my constitutional rights 'till we develop a new vaccine?
It's true that health providers would be overwhelmed more than without a lockdown. But why are we not looking at deaths caused by the lockdown? We're all fatter, we exercise less, we're less happy, we're more stressed, we're addicted more, etc, etc. How much permanent damage does the disruption of social life do to our children? How much unhappiness and deaths will our right wing governments cause when they get to chop at your NHS, education or public parks because we've ballooned the debt?
My problem with wearing a mask is the same as my problem with Geert Wilders' proposed headscarf ban or the current burka ban. People should able to decide freely what they want to wear, especially when the cloth mask has a very, very, very small net positive effect. Being okay with a 2 year mask mandate is dangerously close to the dude that says: "Why should I care they're spying on me, I've got nothing to hide". Of course, a lot of people including the "you're a dumb trump supporting FB guy for questioning my believes" crowd, like
@Sandikan @Pexbo think like that, which is a much bigger problem in our society than a virus that's 4 times as deadly as a bad seasonal flu. (don't be lazy @mod by pressing that delete button. Google it and see this figure is correct and IMHO very generous)
