Or how about only wealthy elites getting away with having parties while everyone else is expected to quarantine?
Look how terrified they are all the time
I will NOT avoid ingesting mouse droppings.
It is my God-given right to find a rodent nest and motorboat it.
Americans are the most frightened people on earth.
No it's really only the old stupid people
stupid people
Unfortunately, that's the majority of Americans.
When looking at the social anxiety epidemic across America, very much affecting young people, Iβm sorry to say this is not true.
People think theyβre unique in not wanting to pick up a phone to order a meal from a restaurant, but itβs everyone now. SO many people want to minimize social contact to an extreme degree. Itβs part of why political opposition to rampant oppression is so lack luster.
Americans are afraid of each other
They're afraid of someone knocking on the door
They're afraid their boss will fire them and they will lose their health insurance
They're afraid of other countries
I spend a lot of time in the US, and I've never seen anywhere with people constantly on edge. They're so used to it that they don't notice any more
I've never seen anywhere so ruled by fear
They are afraid of people in public transit.
Their fear of others also drives them to get bigger and bigger cars, causing them to become even more detached from anyone who is not already close to them.
Everything is an arms race, and life is seen as a zero-sum game
Well if I was standing next to someone called "FistingEnthusiast" I might be quite fearful myself!
It's all consensual.
I'm harmless
That's exactly what a fisting enthusiast would say. >:(
i think they seem nice
Thank you!
:3
Maybe they just enjoy throwing their fist in the air in solidarity at things, or just merely fist bumping people? Harmless! βοΈ
Brb, gonna do a line of mouse shit
Hanta has been a thing in chile since the 90s, I don't know what the fuss is about.
distractions to keep us from a few things.
Yeah, the irony of this kind of meme saying "I will not live in fear" and yet they quite obviously are living every day in fear of conspiracies. Anyone who has read a few sentences of commentary is aware that Hantavirus is not going to be a pandemic.
At the moment, there is no cure or vaccine. Just like with Ebola, until a few years ago when some non-African people got infected, and they suddenly whipped up something.
We've known about coronaviruses since the 1960s
Yep, and scientists were saying for just as long how easy it could mutate and cause a global pandemic so governments should be prepared. >.>
Yup. There's also deaths from hantavirus every year in California. The problem is the variant, its the first time a lot of these countries are being exposed to the more contagious than usual form of hantavirus that in Chile & Argentina is known as Andean Hantavirus.
Chile has a long history of dealing with this and usually takes all the necessary precautions, but add some dumbass gringos (north americans and Europeans) into the mix and they basically go into a remote area and snort lines of mouse shit and then are surprised when they caught a really bad virus.
Argentina doesn't really take any precautioms afaik.
yes, in chile they always do campaigns, is a fact of life since forever, so for me it's quite surprising the global craze about it.
different species, variant implies its the same species but different genotype. hantaa virus of korea is a different species than sin nombre of the midwest, and andes virus. the first 2 are quite virulent.
Isn't it obvious? There is no vaccine. We've seen human-to-human transmission even with short contacts like a flight. It's able to kill people. And we know that at least in the USA the government will not do anything to protect the people.
All the losers are having sudden flare-ups of their persecution complex and are desperately using something that will never happen to create a feeling of power in their sad empty lives.
Same image change my mind
Sontaar hah, sontaarans are much more intelligent than that.
They both have a habit of misgendering people. At least the Sontarans do it because theyβre a single-gender spices, rather than spite.

I will NOT comprehend basic science.
This was said by a British politician about the UK, but it feels a lot like it applies to the US too:
I think the people of this country have had enough of experts
Wasn't that said to minimise the authority of experts rather than as a statement on the public? Specifically, Gove was trying to pass policies that the so called 'experts' were saying wouldn't work so he tried to spin the narrative by saying politicians shouldn't listen to experts and people should do what they're told.
It seems to be a common social phenomenon, something about how our human brains are wired. People have expert knowledge - burn the witches! China's Great Leap Forward, the Cambodian genocide under Khmer Rouge, and on and on. I hate that we as a society haven't figured out how to avoid this yet.

I can provide LIBERTY FREEDOM coffins at a discount for true patriots. Each coffin comes with an engraved American flag and a gun holster. Today's your can pre-order your LIBERTY FREEDOM coffin for $4,747.47. Don't 86 your rights!
You joke, but some gullible idiot will buy that.
I know people who get their phone service through "PureTalk" to escape the "liberals at AT&T". I'm still not sure which is the greater irony: the fact that AT&T is an extremely conservative stick in the mud Corpo of the fact that PureTalk is an MVNO whose network is provided by -- wait for it -- AT&T

Like this mfer leaves the house anyways.
I already said it doesn't matter if this virus becomes wide spread or not, US will never do another shut down - I'm fact to wipe us out just release a virus, most would rather die than stay home for a few weeks
The US was lucky to have an administration change when it did right as COVID19 took hold. Had the pedophile been running things any longer, the entire country would have burned to the ground.
"Inject bleach to kill the virus?" "Fire our smartest guy for.. reasons.." etc. etc.
