not to be dramatic - but are Republicans in a death cult?

The only logical explanation here is that the GOP is on some kind of weird, slow-motion murdering spree.

They think COVID will kill more Democrat constituencies than Republican constituencies. That's what they're banking on.

It didn’t collapse last year and it won’t collapse this year. Stop being so dramatic.

Anyone whose lived in the south. Happens a lot when your ancestors lived in poverty and had absolutely no mental health treatment.

Source: I from the south. At least half my old friends and family members are either borderline or bipolar, and only about half of those have been officially diagnosed. Used to joke I needed to find a specialized "poor white trash" therapist in DC to help me out.

I'm from the south too and this is just garbage. Go to Pennsyltucky, upstate NY, lots of the midwest (Indiana!), Colorado, California, etc lots of the same ignorant and angry folk there.

Mental illness, anger, and ignorance also abound in the DMV.

It nearly did, and it's in the process of collapsing again. States with high rates of infection are running out of hospital beds (if they haven't already) and medical professionals are not going to hold up under another wave like this - they are burned out and many of them are leaving their profession and not looking back because of the non-stop stress. We had a nursing shortage before COVID - how do you think this is going to play out?

The panic porn media highlights hospitals in some areas that are running out of beds and anxiety ridden people like you jump to the conclusion that it is happening in all of the thousands of other hospitals in this enormous country.

We can have a real argument about how the media covers things (I’m in Eric Boehlert’s camp: they cover it poorly. https://twitter.com/EricBoehlert?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) but it is actually pretty noteworthy that hospitals are - over a year into the pandemic, after vaccines have been made widely available, after every knows that masks and distancing slow the spread of covid - having to shut down departments and ration care.

Who’s claiming it’s everywhere? They’ve been pretty clear where it’s happening, and my doctor friends are pretty burnt out after the last year - and I live in a lower covid area. Is it less bad if it’s only in certain states? I thought you guys treasured life, but you’ve been pretty careless and/or gleeful about its destruction for the last year plus.

It comes down to the "you're not the boss of me" school of adolescent tantrums. They all talk about personal freedoms and conveniently ignore the social responsibilities side of that coin.

Yeah, it’s happening in places where lots of people have refused vaccination. They make up the vast majority of hospitalized people and they pretty much brought it on themselves. Their actions have also extended this pandemic for everyone.

That's the part they absolutely will not acknowledge - that their actions (or lack thereof) have a ripple effect.

Which these dumb mooks don’t grasp.

Covid is just a few mutations away from evading the vaccine entirely which would mean we’re totally back to square one. Duck every single anti vaxxer. Duck them. They are going to cause so much unnecessary pain and death.

Yes, I am tired of this pandemic and I have desire to make any further sacrifices to protect these people.
