Me personally, during this whole thing i have never felt any fear whatsoever regarding the virus. Yes this virus has taken out lots of people worldwide, but you know what else has, the flu. Each year worldwide, influenza kills 500,000 people every year. And that was from a google search i saw early on when. Funnily enough this statistic no longer shows up when you type in how many people die from influenza each year worldwide. What, did people just stop dying from the flu this year??
Its all BS, the fake corrupt media made this thing out to be the apocalypse, like it was the end of the world. Well it didnt take me out, im still here. And like the great DJT, i dont wear a mask when i go out.
I was worried that he would start wearing a mask during press brefings, thank goodness he is still the good old DJT i know and love. He like me cannot and will not wear a mask.
Mark my words, wordwide this virus is on its way down. Just look at countries all over the world, especially Italy, Spain and Britian that are now reopening thier countries.
Also, i have this belief that DJT will win re-election in a landslide and that whatever the media and Democrats try to do between now and November will blow up in their face.
Not worried now, and I have weakened lungs (per a doctor several years ago) from several consecutive bouts of pneumonia I dealt with in my 20s. But I've seen the stats, numbers, percentages and know I'm dealing with fraction of a percent chances of it being serious.
That said, when our MSM was more concerned about looking racist, downplaying it, parroting calls to go out and enjoy Chinese New Year, I saw enough signs that all was not well in Wuhan and didn't trust the ChiComs anyway so I began stocking up and encouraging family members to do the same. I'm glad I did. March hit, and I didn't have to join the panic buying when everyone else did.
As new info has come out, it has become evident that this virus is not what it was said to be, and the endless lockdowns have gone from foolishness to evil.
My left-wing dad who I've referred to in past posts is still pushing the line he gets from his daily doses of CNN, still believes this is the new normal and needs to be; in fact he texted last night saying he's come to the conclusion capitalism has run its course and it is our duty to embrace socialism. Must be hard to live with that mindset.
I'm still in a locked-down county - blue island in a red state - but nothing stops me from crossing the bridge to a free county where I've gotten my hair cut, had a beer or two in a bar where no one had masks or sat six feet apart, and I'm FINE. And know I will be.
Fuck. Yep capitalism has run its course by lifting the majority of us out of poverty but this damned virus, need to end prosperity now and huddle in fear in our homes for the rest of our lives. WTF.
I so envy you.
