    I kinda wish many americans would restrain their rationalization and denial, but if wishes were horses, then beggars would ride. :D

    Did you intentionally forget the topic of this thread? Hint: It is the same as the topic of the entire forum.

    How do we know 1500 people died from covid when the numbers have been so inflated and misrepresented? Why should I believe the numbers have meaning when it's been 6 months of cooking the books by those with financial incentives to do so?

    You have not presented a single piece of evidence that the "numbers have been so inflated and misrepresented."

    so, you wanted the fear of the virus. You wanted the useless lockdowns, the useless social distancing, the shuttering of small businesses, yet you then post about heaven forbid, some folks getting wealthy

    Is big govt always the answer for you?

    Inequality just got a hell of a lot worse. That means a lot more people dying in the streets.

    I go with what works. You embrace mega-failure.

    INEQUALITY

    nobody guarantees you anything. You can work hard and still fail, so be it. You keep trying

    If you want govt to determine your lifestyle, move to Venezuela, they do a great job of it

    You demand the lockdowns
    You demand the masking up
    You demand social distancing
    all have proven to be failures as the virus is still around throughout the world, not just the USA

    AND, you support the fear mongering by the media and politicians


    And, once the actions that you want cause the economy to crater and businesses to close, you then whine about inequality and want big govt to "fix" that which they created

    do you actually believe what you post are are you trolling?

    I disagree. The number of deaths is far fewer than the survivors that will come out of it with permanent lung & heart & brain damage. There are more, but those are the biggies. It's definitely worth considering.

    you do understand that flu and pneumonia also cause permanent damage in "some people" just like covid does to "some people" ?

    You are probably under the impression you said something there. That impression is incorrect.

    Repeating something over and over does not make it true.
    Wishful thinking does not make it true.

    You've been repeatedly asked to present your proof of this. You can't. You just keep repeating nonsense.

    Are mistakes being made? Of course - humans will make mistakes. When they are found, they are corrected.

    Are you claiming that you are perfect, and therefore expect everyone else to be perfect? Are you literally the first perfect person ever to walk on the planet?

    Covid-19 creates permanent damage in "more" people than flu and pneumonia just like Covid-19 kills "more" people than flu and pneumonia.

    I think the more likely reason for the huge resurgence is that way too many people put their faith in a mask that was never designed to protect them in the first place.

    We never had enough mask compliance to make a difference. I rate your claim false.

    I learned long ago it is impossible to reason with a person in denial of facts.

    Your first sentence cuts both ways.

    Your repeating forged and inflated numbers do not make them become accurate.

    We agree to disagree. You buy into everything MSM says, and I do not. :peace:
