I feel dirty admitting this, but this time I’m on the side of disinformation. More lives will be saved by saving our nation from the fascists. This time, I won’t be trying to talk any sense into them. I want them to ignore the science and distrust medicine.
Our nation’s most vulnerable groups as well as our planet’s normal (non-conservative) people are on the verge of being permanently oppressed and/or exterminated. If stepping aside and allowing the oppressors to kill themselves will prevent that outcome, then we need to grow a spine and do exactly that. Let’s encourage them to shrink their voting base while voting is still relevant.
Plandemic 2 here we come. Never let a good opportunity to impose tyranny go to waste.
Can I have your vaccine, since you don’t want it? Also, can you please let your friends know that Bill Gates made this one too? I think it has 6G trackers in it this time.
Pandemic 2: Electric Bird Flu Boogaloo
Oh boy, time to risk us all again. At least it’ll help cull the antivaxers out a little.
Well, surely we’ll take the news of an incoming infectious disease with enormous spreading potential seriously this time(!)
Russian and US propagandists are already on the loose, preparing to get people in the target countries not to follow practices like WFO or wearing masks in croweded places.
We turned the meat industry into a disease factory because that’s more efficient, make sure the financial system incentives everybody in the industry to shut up and remain uncooperative with investigations and measures, rolled out the ads for people to travel all around the world so things can spread and have such an unhealthy political climate that even mentioning a risk in drinking raw milk drives up the sale of raw milk. What’s the worst that can happen, right?
H5N1. High five flu. No 1 left alive
Meat industry + destruction of natural habitats forcing wild animals into contact with domesticated animals or directly with humans + general climate change making the spread of diseases more easy…
The rate and intensity of pandemics is increasing and we are doing barely anything to address the root causes. Because that would mean to reduce some individuals profits and make some small adjustments to our consumption routines, while restoring nature that is sustaining us. And that is out of the question.
The rate and intensity of pandemics is increasing
And as usual, this was predicted, warned about, is happening and stubbornly ignored. One of those many cans kicked down the road until the pile is too big to kick and starts to blocks the road.
The rate and intensity of pandemics is increasing
Is it? I really don’t want to sound like I am downplaying this but is it increasing? People would get shit like polio and smallpox. We have had three pandemics in my life and two of them were isolated to 1-3 countries. Ebola and Sars.
pandemic != endemic.
Polio and smallpox were endemic. They were pretty bad, but as slowly evolving diseases once we got the vaccines down, we got them under control. Pandemics are new diseases w.o. efficient resistance / medical treatments or prevention
Just wait until enough MAGA heads have drunk raw milk out of pure spite and turn the bird flu into the MAGA Malady pandemic.
The first pandemic caused primarily by human stupidity…

I was going to bring up the killing of cats right before the Black Plague of the 14th century but some searching online showed me that most historians think it was a factor but not the major factor.
So yeah I got nothing you might be right.
Yep. Cats and the Black Plague. Actually, they were a complicating factor for some. The Christians killed (primarily black) cats, as they deemed them helpers of the devil and therefor complicit in spreading the plague. The Jews, on the other side, kept cats to keep house and storage vermin-free. So the Christians thought the Jews were in league with the devil, so they killed them, too - at least that was one of the “reasons” for pogromes. And it is also a reason why there are way less black cats in Europe than colored ones. It is a crazy topic…
But even if they had not killed those cats, the Black Death would have come. Maybe it would have spread a tad slower, but not much.
Bad things are happening -> a minority caused it. All we have to is eliminate the minority and double down on ideas that failed us.
Guess humans haven’t changed much. On an unrelated note a friend of mine yesterday decided to tell me about the vast conspiracy of trans people to hurt girls and I am reconsidering our relationship.
