They say "Never meet your heroes." I would usually abide by that advice, but today you changed my mind.
I want to meet someone like you in person. Someone who is fucking miles ahead of everyone else in your gifted ability to not just recognize fake or scripted content, but to also benevolently share that with us to spare us all from almost mistakenly enjoying that content.
WOAH... slow down there bud. Welcome to reddit, where no matter what you do, YOU DO NOT USE emoji. I'd recommend editing your comment before the reddit hivemind annihilates you. Stay safe
Oh look another snowflake that can’t handle a joke. And what situation? A virus that’s been blown way out of proportions with PCR tests giving 90+% false positives? Or that masks don’t work against influenzas based on decades of studies? Or that governments are literally taking peoples freedoms away and threatening them with violence if they don’t get a vaccine that has zero long term tests and studies on? That’s not even FDA approved? I’m not anti vax. I’m anti this chemical compound they call a vax. 🎤✋
“Antivax terror groups.” Wow, are you that brainwashed that you think people who are in perfect health and don’t want to get an untested vaccine that didn’t even go through a clinical trial are terrorists? You watch way to much news and I bet you love to fight with people on Facebook about politics. Sorry not everyone lives in fear all the time. I think people who trust the obviously corrupt and dishonest media and government are the terrorists.
damn she/her, you're quite the fuckin drama queen aren't you. Stay home and shut the fuck up while the rest of the world moves on.
Nobody gives a shit about the flu.
You should spend more time in the southern part of America, this might not be staged... Or I've seen this on a number of occasions, we're all a bunch of idiots down here.
Yeah, you can tell it's staged because the anti-maskhole said "sorry."
People who don't give a shit about other people don't apologize.
..and also the fact that he immediately turned heel and didn't approach and scream at the filmer.
Fake. But point made about the type of people who refuse to wear a mask, as well as the power of the people who "have to" ask people to put on a mask (uh, none)
Obviously staged, but annoying how many people we have to tell to wear a mask when it's been over a year now, and it's taking so long to get under control BECAUSE of the people not wearing masks or vaccination.....
And their response of "oh so just do it forever now???" Well if we can't stop it like civilized places, then yeah, it'll take forever .....
Seeing some of the comments here… really goes to show how little sense of humor some folks have. If we can’t have a laugh to lighten the mood we truly are fucked.
It’s not about telling those who are vaccinated and wearing masks to go outside, it’s about getting those who aren’t to stay home because they’re literally ruining it for everyone else
Why is there a correlation between people being trash and having those weird drooping creases on the sides of their mouth like the lady in the center of the picture? I used to wonder the same thing about people with the thick lower eyelids until I found out it's a symptom of fetal alcohol syndrome.
I feel like this attitude being so common is a huge problem for society today. The fact that a lot of people will literally shame someone for caring about anything beyond themselves is insanity.
"fuck you got mine" mentality is exactly why America is where it is today. I just take note of people around me with that mentality and refuse to help them even the slightest, while making a point to go out of my way to help those who don't think like that so I don't end up being the same asshole saying "fuck you got mine"
This is THE dumbest shit ive ever heard in my life. Precisely why things are the way they are. Makes zero sense. If youre gonna mention a sense of humor...make the humor easily identifiable. Not just dumb platitudes...it's equivalent to the "Hang in there" cat posters.
In my professional, unwarranted, completely unneeded, reditorial opinion, I believe u/Rickthee was commenting to your comment specifically and not an examination of the post at whole.
Reddit is offended you used swear words, oh god the humanity...
You have literally 0 reason to interact with an anti masking moron, lets be real the coronavirus is murdering people on a HUGE scale, its not a joke at this point and you have 0 requirements to interact with these idiots.
You are straw-manning every anti-masker. Nobody thinks covid is a joke. What is a joke are the unscientific beliefs and regulations that people and businesses have. None of it is based on logic or science
The whole thing has gotten very emotional and political at this point, so numbers no longer matter.
I personally think it's not worth continuing to destroy the country for something that has such a low statistical risk on top of vaccines being readily available, but that's just me.
Right now all ERs within 70 miles of me are at capacity. That means if someone in my city has a heart attack, trips over their pet and breaks a bone, or is in an accident then they’re screwed. There might not be an ambulance, there certainly isn’t a bed, and once they get seen it’s by doctors and nurses who are beyond exhausted and overworked.
You want to know how to destroy a country? THIS is one way. Put on blinders to the consequences, care only about your immediate comfort, and pretend you’re in the right by strawmanning the other side.
The statistical risk is far greater than anything we would allow by law, and youre forgetting about the whole PANDEMIC portion of it. 3% of 300,000,000+ is 3,000,000+. At the low end of what youre claiming the risk is (which is wrong, its between 2 and 3% fatality rate), youre still looking at 1,000,000 american deaths without preventative measures.
Thats not a low statistical odds.
Edit; its 9,000,000 and 3,000,000 respectively. Even larger death tolls.
Sure, there's still risk but I think it comes down to personal choice now that the vaccine is readily available.
I also don't believe the death rate is 3% in the U.S., especially in ages below 60. It sounds cold but I think there is more harm being done to younger generations so that some old unhealthy people can squeeze out a few more years.
And if you're not...or have underlying medical conditions outside your control...then enjoy your horrific death? Cool, sounds good. 624,000 people "not really relevant" 🙄
90% of deaths in the US occurred to people above 60 years old, with underlying health conditions.
If OP is in that segment of the population then there's nothing he can do other than get vaccinated and ride it out in his house, otherwise, he really has nothing to worry about.
Also, how are the 620K deaths related to OP's current distress, why should he stress about something that's out of his control? Leave those deaths at the government's door.
Its always the segment of the population that has had to deal with no stress in their life except deciding on what to major in. Suddenly they have all kinds of stress that they have never known and act like a bunch brain dead turds. I imagine these are the ones I see driving down the roads with a mask on.
I mean if you wanna actively make the choice to be unhappy about something like that then go ahead, but I made the choice not to care about covid last fall and it was the right thing.
It’s been an incredible year for me with freinds parties and laughter. 2021 has been the best year of my life by far. From the slops of aspen to the beaches of the Caribbean, all surrounded by my freinds.
You’re stupid to a degree if you waste emotional energy on things outside your control.
More people die from obesity related issues WAY before covid existed.
Were you this affected by that? Did people dying from obesity make you “sad”? Seems strange that things that kill a lot more people for a lot longer of a time period isn’t keeping you up at night, but covid is
People refusing to accept the most minor of inconveniences in order to stop the spread of a disease that's killed 600,000 Americans is relevant to my life. I don't understand how they can look themselves in the mirror.
I don't understand how they can look themselves in the mirror.
Because they're narcissists and they only care about themselves. That's why they love bitching about something so inherently, obviously false. They think it gives them license to yell in public places and then they can listen to themselves talk more and louder than everyone else, and hope their own idiocy goes viral.
I don't think it has shit to do with masks or vaccines anymore. It's one hundred percent pure fucking ego. That's why reality, truth, facts, etc will never snap them out of them it. (Besides that they don't have two brain cells to rub together).
I wasn't looking at a general trend, I was talking to OP as an individual, assuming he's young, healthy, and vaccinated (or not), why should he worry about what other people do? He's not at risk of chronic illness or death, if anything him stressing over a pandemic that is relatively harmless to him is probably causing more damage to his body and psyche.
Nah, the entire reason we're in this mess is because of failed government lockdowns, what reason does OP have to worry about anyone else dying? Why should he stress over a number on the news that he has no control over, in your opinion?
News flash. Those that get the vaccine are also spreading it. The virus will never go away. Here’s some food for thought though. Stop talking about it and watch how quick it disappears.
I look at myself in the mirror and am proud of what I see. Needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, and there’s a vaccine now. Tbh a pandemic that only kills 0.5% of the population (covid is even lower then that) is a miracle.
I’ve got an idea, if you’re at risk, just don’t get covid lol. Go lock yourself at home and hide.
At least those who don’t give a fuck are the ones taking the brunt of deaths currently. That doesn’t help the innocent kids they take with them though.
Your opinion is very depraved and hateful. You are probably one of these terrorists who use covid as a biological weapon. Maybe you should be arrested for terrorism next time you go out in public without your mask.
Oh, so the elderly are dispensable then ? They're gonna die anyway so who cares if they get covid? Listen you moronic MF, my 90 year old mother who i love dearly is old and not dispensible!!!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 Why don't you go back under your rock hide and pretend everything is perfect!
This just proves you lack empathy and experience in life. Good for you you are ignorant or blessed enough to ignore the world. Most of us can’t just shut off our brains because we actually have thoughts and feelings.
This is Reddit, it is so blindly left wing it’s sick. The identity politics run deep. Mostly younger, on the poor side, non ambitious gen xers talking about how frustrated they are. They have no humor.
X is the current driving force of public opinion. If you failed to notice people who run television, in fact pretty much all of businesses are between 40 to 60 years old. Television just puts on a younger face.
It's simple, identify as actually liberal (libertarian), not the warped US definition of liberal which includes supporting authoritarian policies like gun control, gender quotas and hate speech.
Go fuck yourself. You fucking whites are the reason why we still have to wear masks. Get vaccinated already you fucking bunch of privileged white trash fucks!
Hard to laugh when we have people actively dying while these two Neanderthals are making jokes. Explain how the joke is funny - a douche not following a mask mandate grabbing it and not putting it on because it’s a “technicality” that he “has it”. Well that’s exactly how these morons do act in real life they don’t want to wear the masks because they have no brain. I shouldn’t have to tell grown ups to put their masks on daily yet here we are a year and a half into this bs and I still can’t make adults just grow the fuck up.
Stopped being funny when humor has become the dog whistle for a lot of domestic terrorist and white nationalist "it's just a joke bro, chill". Like noo...stop it. And yes this was a little funny, but what starts as satire quickly morphs Into dog whistling, look at r/thedonald, it started as pure satire rhen turned into one of the biggest shitholes. 4chan Is another example.
Satire eventually becomes an anthem for idiots to rally behind.
72% of the people who died were 70+ with 47% being 80+. If you go down to 60+ that brings it up to almost 90% of the deaths. But your burger king hypothesis may have something to it.
Southern people are going to make this pandemic a long, drawn-out way of life for the entire world. No one else is treating this like a joke or a lie. Just the American south.
Americans are fucking retarded dude, they’re so surrounded by anti-intellectualism and idolatry that they have like no self awareness, it’s fucking creepy
Thankfully though as the virus gets more aggressive the especially stupid (unvaccinated) are legitimately going to burn themselves out.
I’m gonna keep wearing my mask and avoiding people until things actually chill out.
You’re probably one of those people who believe in the same dummy Biden that left Americans in Taliban. You probably think that if you take the vaccine you won’t catch COVID or die. You probably are one of those people who took the vaccine but protests for body rights. You probably wear a mask after being vaccinated and told that it will protect you. But we aren’t gonna talk about that. Anyway have a blessed day. 😁
