"pandemic"

Why did you put pandemic in quotes?

C'mon, bro, you already know why.

Social media killed my free speech by deleting a tweet where I told Bill Maher I was going to rape him in a ditch or something.

Because we've had worse outbreaks of disease in the past and nothing was shut down; like the ones that took place during Obomber's administration wherein he did nothing about them. Also, nobody had to wear masks when Our Lord and Savior's administration had its pandemics. Odd how that works out, huh? I mean, it couldn't possibly be that covid-19 is being played up by the media as an excuse to keep the country shut down and cripple the economy in the hopes that that evil riggum-raggum nAzI cHeEto poop head doesn't get reelected could it?

As far as testing positive goes, if you've ever had a coronavirus at all, you will test positive... unless you actually have COVID-19 wherein you may get a negative result when you take a test. Also, the only reason that "tHe NuMbErS r GoInG uP" is because they count e v e r y o n e who has contact with someone who gets a positive test result as a new "probable" case.

I'm convinced that I and my girlfriend had it last November.

While it is true that swine flu wasn't treated nearly as seriously as Covid-19 has been, the scary thing about Covid is how easily contagious it is and the fact it causes blood clots that can effect multiple systems of organs, as well as potentially being able to re-infect a person and the potential for long-term damage that we don't even know about.

What I had was a high fever that didn't break for two weeks, cough, aches, dizziness & trouble breathing. Again, this was November so I actually do wear a mask when I go out specifically because of the fact that I could potentially spread this to other people.

There's a certain slur that comes to mind for posts like this. It starts with an R and ends with secretly disappointed parents.

Mental health funding is sorely needed in this country.

My question is why you all seem to think that you'll be better off under communism than you are now, when the majority of you probably have it better than I do.

I'm the one who might stand to be better off under your lame-ass "new system", but I can't get behind destroying the entire country or putting a gun to your heads to take what isn't mine just because I'm resentful & think that I "deserve it"
