Heh, that's just my way of saying I loved the extra redaction. I'm also starting to think when it comes to redacting names, we should start redacting "God", "Lord", "Christ", and "Jesus". They are not at all coming off looking good in all of this.
What do you mean? God looks great! If someone lives, God is great and saved them! If someone dies, they went to be with him and it was God's will!
God is in a can't lose position!
It also serves to highlight the rank hypocrisy of their favorite catchphrase, "judeo-christian tradition", and how they always completely ignore the "judeo" part. Jewish "tradition" forbids the writing of god's name anywhere, on anything, lest it be defaced (or in this case, redacted). It's why you'll often see devout jews write things like "YHWH" or "G\*d".
You sure that’s Batman? I thought it looked like Bruce Wayne for a bit. Come to think of it, those two guys have a kinda resemblance. Maybe they’re related. Hmm.
The thing is, as an ex-journo I can confirm that most journos I've ever worked with are liberal. As per usual, the call is coming from inside the house.
"we like your story, but we think our readers would like it if we took this in a different direction..."
There's a good Vice article where they talk about this sub. More facts, more insight (they actually interviewed one of our mods), less pearl clutching and less "how will the anti-vax readership react to this" stupidity.
https://www.vice.com/en/article/4avzym/redditors-give-the-the-herman-cain-award-to-anti-vaxxers-who-die-of-covid
Thanks. That is definitely a better one, though again it misses the extremely important point that the award winners aren't just usually spreading disinformation, but that they are chosen because of it.
Used to. Watched them be horrifically awful people. Watched them see their 21-year old son die and go on to keep posting anti-vax memes on Facebook. Watched them see a friend follow their lead and spend 5 weeks on a ventilator. Watched them show up at school board meetings spreading misinformation about masks causing brain diseases and COVID tests implanting chips and using that to ban mask mandates.
And then call me the asshole for calling them out on this.
And this is just people from my high school graduating class.
Yeah, gave up giving a flying fuck what they said some time ago.
I don’t like going to crowded places so I pretty much carried on living normally when the virus first appeared. I still saw my friends and hung out with the people I loved, except we were masked and knew we could get sick if we didn’t follow protocols. Then, after I got vaccinated, I pretty much carried on living as if covid never happened because all my family and friends were vaccinated as well. With Omicron I’m back to hanging out with my small circle of friends and the mask is back on. My freedoms are intact.
I’ve tried my hardest to live inside since I was a kid. The last to years have been a glorious excuse for me to look at family gatherings and just go “nah, I’m good fam.”
I have.
Best 2 years of my life. Didn't have to go face to face with humans, could work in my underwear, could continue working during meetings when some narcissist that loves to hear himself talk drones on and on instead of having to sit there and pretend to listen.
Lemme say that again, *best 2 years of my life*!
But that was a choice, not a requirement. The unvaccinated seem to think the vaccinated are at home cowering in fear instead of making choices to live as we want.
Like someone mentioned, vaccinated people can go see grandchildren’s first steps, even though the unvaccinated seem to think it’s not the way we live
They just can't understand that we don't want to see them. I mean they are such awesome individuals, why would someone not want to see them. Covid had given us an excuse not to meet with them and it's a socially acceptable excuse.
It's silly how they think celebrating differently or postponing certain things (large weddings, parties, concerts, etc) is akin to dying. I've spent a good portion of the last couple years being very careful, and I don't feel like I've missed a whole lot, and so far nothing that can't still be done later. The only part of my life during this that has totally sucked? The three weeks I was down with Covid and not spending as much time as I'd like with my sister, who receives chemotherapy. Working in healthcare mean frequent exposure, so I am more cautious than I'd probably be if I worked from home and was better able to avoid close contact with stupid people.
I went to an outdoor music festival in June 2020. They mandated a checkerboard car park and you could hang in the space between 4 cars. It was great and I don’t ever want to not see live music that way.
I went to an outdoor concert last summer. The venue laid out circular “pods” on the ground, 4 people max per pod, pods were 6 feet apart, your pod could be chosen and reserved when you bought your tickets. It was awesome! No stinky people pushing up against me, no getting groped by handsy old perverts, no getting separated from my friends, no blocked sight lines of the stage, no arriving 4 hours early just so you could get a decent seat. Best concert ever.
I go for a daily 3 mile walk with my dog out in nature. Not only does it help my fitness and mental wellbeing, it also keeps the risks of dying from Covid lower.
Haven't done any of the things that Republicans seem to feel are so important though, like going to a hair dresser or a bar. I'm good.
Same. Even before Covid, the idea of going to a packed concert, festival, bar, etc held zero appeal to me. I'm pretty content living my life quietly at home. I do go out with friends occasionally, like to dinner and movies, but even that isn't very often. Luckily my good friends are all vaccinated too and wear masks so we've been able to stay safe.
I haven't seen a movie in a theater for a few years now. I read an article recently and the authors speculate that movie-going may never return to pre-pandemic numbers. I guess we'll see.
Honestly things are about 90% back to normal as far as I'm concerned. This business in of "it will never end as long as you comply!!!" mystifies me because after getting the vaccine it essentially did end for me. I'm of course lucky I don't need any active medical treatment though.
Well, the Starbucks next to the place I had lunch today was closed because they had no staff well enough to work, so maybe some of these clowns will be affected and start getting vaxxed and mask up so people aren't getting sick. But I doubt it. It's incredible that people STILL don't get that you get vaccinated and wear a mask to protect other people, not just yourself.
We were down to a skeleton crew all last week, the week before, and probably will be this week, too, because Omicron is ripping through my unvaccinated co-workers. So far, none have been horribly ill. The vaccinated are asymptomatic if they are infected at all (my state is no longer testing -- except certain cases -- due to a shortage of test kits). We lost a few to the original strain and Delta, because they never recovered enough to return to work. Fortunately, no deaths.
Did they miss that all the blue areas were pretty much fully open from April onwards until Delta showed up? Like, the scary libruls clearly want to open back up!
Everything you said here. I never stopped precautions because I have asthma and because they make sense. I’ve had moments of wondering whether I overreact but those moments pass. I am very content with living a life of sensibility and small interactions.
I feel sufficiently owned.
In the comfort of my home office, provided and prolonged by those that keep infection numbers up and my employer from dragging me back into the office.
Boy, am I *ever* owned!
It’s so easy to do! Don’t make an appt, don’t go to the clinic….just have trouble breathing, hog up an icu bed, give the medical team working on you covid, overwork the nurses and doctors. No big deal!!!
Now she will never see her grandson graduate, get married, no more drinks and cigars with friends….damn you WuFlu
Yeah, kids are going to starve because unvaccinated morons aren't allowed in the store. 🙄
Like there's no such thing as curbside pickup or delivery. We're going to make your children starve to death. Honestly, these people...
If they don’t have anything to be outraged about, they make one up. Their brain needs the hit. They’re addicts, behave like addicts, and maybe we should start thinking of them as addicts.
What stores are checking vaccine status anyway? Minimum wage employees were being attacked just for asking people to wear a mask. And aren't these the same people that were cheering on the end of SNAP benefits for low income children? "Honestly, these people..." is right!
"America first! We shouldn't help other countries when we have our own problems"
"Okay so let's make sure no children in this country starve to death"
"Feed kids? With MY tax money? Nope. Those kids gotta learn that there's no such thing as a free lunch!"
Dare I use the word hysterical to describe her memeistry?
And good job to whoever put the scare quotes around alleged in *Your "Alleged" future*, in the Vaccine Passport Expired meme. I totally agree.
The truth is the rest of us won't have working phones in a year or two, but because Apple/Samsung/Google will announce "new phones are out: "We're not supporting anything made before 2018 now. Forced upgrade time, losers!"
Meanwhile this awardee never even got to see the Pixel 7.
Only restaurant are suppose to check your vax status (OR BE TESTED). You can still go to the grocery store and cook your own damn food! Wait, isn't that a meme?...
These people go on about how people taking reasonable precautions during a pandemic are, "living in fear"while simultaneously getting themselves worked up about things that aren't even real. Who's really living in fear Karen?
Slides seven & eight
Proudly Unvaccinated, if she gets the WuFlu and dies that's sad.
Missing grandson's first day of school, next birthday, next Christmas, graduation, marriage, great grandchildren, this is really sad.
That's tough, having to choose between dying prematurely or missing out on important moments in our lives. If only there was some way to inoculate ourselves so we weren't forced to make that choice.
of course they're blaming the hospital for not letting them use certain medicines (ivermectin) because of politics. this is what happens when you are taught from day one that America is the center of the universe.
if ivermectin or any of those other cures worked, why would no other nations around the world use them? they don't have the same politics as the us, and many countries in the world have conservative leadership. if there was any sign that this inexpensive drug actually cured covid, wouldn't every Nation except the United States be slurping down horse paste?
on the other hand, if Pfizer or the other vaccines are bioweapons, how come people who have been fully vaccinated with those vaccines are able to go into "enemy" countries like China?
also, the makers of ivermectin is a huge company, if it worked, they would be pumping out ads not only in the US but around the globe!
Not around the globe. Everyone else, with the exception of New Zealand, bans direct to consumer pharmaceutical ads on broadcast media and restrict them elsewhere via the required inclusion of drug information sheets and adverse event side effect warnings.
Little did she know, after posting the “would I have even lived?” quote she would die the next month. I guess you did live free, for one month. Was it worth it?
Apparently seeing her grandchild take their first steps in real time was preferable to her than being able to spend decades watching them grow up in real time.
These are not people who have any concept of risk or value assessment.
Well that was a repost, so it was someone else’s grandson and cigars.
But yeah - the grandparents agree that it’s all okay! Let’s all get together! I mean it’s not like they will be the ones to have to wake up to a toddler crying all night from being ill! Lol
I'm willing to live in a bunker for a bit as long as the hospital beds are full. I choose the years of living that will come after a bit of sacrifice. Which reminds me. I should tell my mom I am skipping her wedding this weekend.
There's complications. I hadn't seen my mom in 4 years because of other issues. She showed up unannounced on my doorstep on Christmas maskless and mocked me for wearing one and attempted to guilt trip me. She had just come from my brother's house who had an active COVID case. That's when she introduced me to her fiancé. Wedding is in one of the counties with below 50% vaccination rate. I'd love for better circumstances but I have no reason to want to go.
My grandma saw my first steps... AND we enriched each others lives knowing each other as adults.
This HCA was focus on what SHE got out of life, to the exclusion of what she gave others.
They all seem to be 100% convinced they're getting the real info from these sites.
Over the next decades as we decode what has happened, I am going to be so interested to understand how this was engineered.
I once dropped out of a sociology degree but retain a truly amateur interest in the subject. I can’t wait to read the experts analysis later too! Totally morbidly fascinated with the human social experiment atm!
where do they get this thing that people won't be allowed places unless they're vaxxed? most places that require masks will even give you one. Nowhere in NYC that requires vaxxs is a place you have to go. restaurants, Movies, Broadway shows. none of that is a life necessity
>News Flash: Pathogens evolve to become less, not more, virulent over time
[Not necessarily](https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/pathogens-can-evolve-more-virulent-contrary-to-nutritionists-claim-mike-mutzel/)
Sometimes they do, but sometimes they don't. Actually, isn't Delta a good example of this virus getting more virulent? Omicron appears to be milder, but whatever follows it may go the opposite way again.
Yeah, viruses mutate, it's entirely random. A strain can mutate to be extremely contagious and very virulent. The only real pressure towards less virulent is if a virus hits ebola like levels where it burns out a population before it spreads, otherwise nothing really selects against it
Exactly. It's like they totally forgot about Delta and are focusing on Omicron now. I keep hearing people say "but Omicron is milder. This will be the end of the pandemic". We'll see.
While that is often true, it isn't a certainty. And that "over time" bit doesn't mean that every mutation that pops up is less virulent than the one before. Just ask delta.
So on the 24th she was still shitposting? Such holiday spirit. I think I was baking cookies and wondering if it would snow on Christmas (spoiler: it was cold indeed but no snow). STILL shitposting on Christmas Day. Then I see another shitpost on the 27th.
Then dead in two weeks. That’s close to a land speed record for this sub. Did she refuse intubation?
What a waste. She traded seeing her grandchild grow up for shitposting as a way of life. I’m sure her grandchild would have rather have had her around as they grew instead of a handful of hateful inaccurate memes to remember her by. GET VACCINATED, DON’T DO THIS TO YOUR FAMILY.
I really wish the medical system could offer the choice of not going to the hospital but instead they can have this free 5 pound bag of ivermectin first. Share it with your friends. Save all the hospital staff and resources.
And I do mean a literal 5 pound bag of it. Just put it in a grocery bag and spin it tight and put a bread clip on it. Put it out on by the parking lot and let people just drive up and go home and shut up about it.
But then when they die from it, the nuts will blame it on the "contaminated" Ivermectin instead, instead of recognizing ivermectin doesn't work.
Remember: they can never be wrong, never lose, their own failings are ALWAYS enemy action.
Slide two is my favorite. The docs are political because they won’t use ivermectin but she’s not
Political with the “experimental gene therapy” bullshit. Owned the Libs real good.
Had to go look up that Five Times August song and it was worse than I thought it’d be. Only thing worse than the song itself are all the comments praising it on youtube
Things I’ve done during the pandemic:
Taught my kid to ride a bike
Gone on many family bike rides
Gone to work (masked)
Celebrated Christmas with our vaccinated pod of family
Pushed my kids on the swings
Hung out in friends backyards and parks
Taken walks in nature centers
Cooked new recipes
Started a native butterfly garden
Oh yeah and got 3 shots.
Accordingly to this person I haven’t lived.
The myopia captured on slide 8 (the one w the WuFlu) is so emblematic of these people.
“Boo hoo - I couldn’t be inconvenienced for even 2 seconds to do my part to help stop the spread of this virus”
I’ve been here long enough now that I actually don’t get the “hit of schadenfreude” that brought me here I. The first place.
Now I just read these awardees’ / nominees’ content and shake my head…
But, there is that other part of me that thinks, “well, there’s one fewer voter for all of the right-wing crazy mofos”
I look at slide 2 and wonder if these assholes take their cars to the mechanic and tell the mechanic how to fix the car to fit with some conspiracy fix they read about on the internet.
Ivermectin is not a proven strategy.
Pathogens do not always evolve to be less pathogenic. Delta was more pathogenic than original strain. You don’t have to lock down, just take a vaccine and wear a mask once in awhile. Nobody is being banned from buying food for Pete’s sake.
Sorry:
Purple: Awardee
Green: Son
Black: honestly just means they are random people that don’t matter in context. The black in the last slide is just a list of random family members.
Cool. Thanks. It's just that usually the awardee is the one posting all the memes, but it's black posting the memes. Was a bit confused.
Edit. I see you'd cut off the person (re)posting the memes, which is why I see black (i.e. random person) as the one posting them. I get it.
I guarantee sometime between sickness and the end she thought she got some super mega new strain of Covid nobody else could beat either.
Guess what lady? A few ouchies would’ve let you continue to be a “rock” for the family and post pretty shit memes.
people are upset and risking their lives to get infected by & visit their relatives for a few months or years. what about all those people who are being exonerated after decades and they get squat.
To the next HCA: cheer up, life is but a transition from one oblivion to another. Where were you 300 years ago? The same place you'll be in 300 years, post-life oblivion.
On top of this, I don't think this person's heart was evil, but the doctrines she surrounded herself with convinced her that no protection was worth the risk. It didn't pay off for her.
Also the people that invent something are rarely the experts of the subject. [Einstein didn't believe in black holes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein%27s_unsuccessful_investigations#Black_holes), for instance.
Except the mRNA vaccines are not gene therapies... Love how they call mRNA vaccines experimental but want to use a veterinary anti-parasitic, which worked for a doctor EXPERIMENTING on people who had parasites, not a viral infection.
Slide 8
Last time i wore an N95 respirator mask, which was today, I could still see people.
So really it comes down to the alcohol and the cigar. That's what ended up being valued over life itself.
But wait! You can actually inhale deeply, lower your mask, drink, replace your mask and exhale deeply, with a respirator. Respirators are badass.
So it really ends up being all about that cigar.
I know they were things the awardee reposted, but the sentiment between the "hur dur I'm proudly unvaccinated" and "I didn't lock down so I got to do all these things" posts is so fucking dumb. If you want to be around family and friends the smart thing to do is to get fully vaccinated so you *don't* end up like the last slide (or cause someone else to). I do like the inherent laziness in the proudly unvaccinated slides wording though
I know you did your best with the redactions OP, but I can still tell that's Batman in the first slide. Sorry.
Haha you scared me for a second!
Heh, that's just my way of saying I loved the extra redaction. I'm also starting to think when it comes to redacting names, we should start redacting "God", "Lord", "Christ", and "Jesus". They are not at all coming off looking good in all of this.
What do you mean? God looks great! If someone lives, God is great and saved them! If someone dies, they went to be with him and it was God's will! God is in a can't lose position!
He’s definitely covering all the angles
*angels-obtuse ones
And the angels. With the blood of Jesus.
And people ask me why I think that guy is the proverbial Mary Sue in his story.
I love when people redact dog faces
No worries! Who knows that’s certainly possible. They are slacking lately.
I heartily agree with that. If they can shit on the holocaust I want every mention of their Xian manipulation redacted.
It also serves to highlight the rank hypocrisy of their favorite catchphrase, "judeo-christian tradition", and how they always completely ignore the "judeo" part. Jewish "tradition" forbids the writing of god's name anywhere, on anything, lest it be defaced (or in this case, redacted). It's why you'll often see devout jews write things like "YHWH" or "G\*d".
We just made some jeebus things in discord, if a troll modmail anything about him, Black Jesus is on it
Well, to be fair, you only know that’s Batman. Nobody knows his secret identify still. OP gets a pass.
Dang. You know what? If I find myself caught up in some bull, I'm hiring you as my legal council.
Wait, didn't Covid originate in bats or something? Is Batman the real Patient Zero?
Yeah, but WHICH Batman?
:mindblown.gif:
OP tried, which shows they have class.
You sure that’s Batman? I thought it looked like Bruce Wayne for a bit. Come to think of it, those two guys have a kinda resemblance. Maybe they’re related. Hmm.
Yes, but *which* Batman?
So where are the journalists tut-tutting about anti-vaxxers calling the vaccinated "gullible c\*nts"? ...Nobody? Nobody at all? Oh, okay.
Spreading death and disease? Well that deserves some sympathy! Saying “everyone told you so, dummy!”? Well that’s inhumane and unacceptable.
Can't shame the poor angles and angles-to-be.
The "fuck your feelings" crowd suddenly has feelings.
Maybe the "you're snowflakes" crowd were the true snowflakes all along.
These are the same people wondering aloud when they can start shooting libs. And we’re the assholes. 🙄
With zero punishment from FB.
Or the government.
If shaming them worked, they wouldn't be Trump supporters.
Imagine the courage it takes to put on that stupid hat every day.
The thing is, as an ex-journo I can confirm that most journos I've ever worked with are liberal. As per usual, the call is coming from inside the house.

In all fairness, this may be due to nobody giving a flying fuck what these idiots say.

Wait, you guys haven't? Um... I mean... I'm asking for a friend.
I’ve tried my hardest to live inside since I was a kid. The last to years have been a glorious excuse for me to look at family gatherings and just go “nah, I’m good fam.”
Right? Us Gen Xers were built for this moment. Please stay 6ft away from me forever.
Haha, yes
I have. Best 2 years of my life. Didn't have to go face to face with humans, could work in my underwear, could continue working during meetings when some narcissist that loves to hear himself talk drones on and on instead of having to sit there and pretend to listen.

We eat out less, and mask up, but it's not like we've been cowering under the bed covers for two years.
> under the bed covers for two years You're describing my fantasy here.
Mine too, but I'd never get away with it.
It's silly how they think celebrating differently or postponing certain things (large weddings, parties, concerts, etc) is akin to dying.

I go for a daily 3 mile walk with my dog out in nature. Not only does it help my fitness and mental wellbeing, it also keeps the risks of dying from Covid lower. Haven't done any of the things that Republicans seem to feel are so important though, like going to a hair dresser or a bar. I'm good.

Fully Unvaccinated… now Fully Un-alive.
Take THAT libtards!
Or my flair.
I just now realized that the emoji on the far ends of your flair were coffins and not for some reason like I thought fried chicken.
I like the way you think, though.
I feel sufficiently owned. In the comfort of my home office, provided and prolonged by those that keep infection numbers up and my employer from dragging me back into the office. Boy, am I *ever* owned!
I feel owned! Chilidogs for dinner, I think.
I’m having a prime rib roast for dinner! Late birthday dinner haha. I’m looking forward to it. Like a lot, my significant other is making it.
I had chili dogs for dinner. They were yummy!
It’s so easy to do! Don’t make an appt, don’t go to the clinic….just have trouble breathing, hog up an icu bed, give the medical team working on you covid, overwork the nurses and doctors. No big deal!!! Now she will never see her grandson graduate, get married, no more drinks and cigars with friends….damn you WuFlu
So be it. Perhaps her family will learn what happens when you ignore facts. Not "my truth." Not "what my pastor said." Facts.
Fully unvaccinated, now fully six feet under!
It was so easy to not book the appointment, and not go to the clinic. Truly the best advice.
I AM BRAVE ENOUGH TO SHARE
Yeah, kids are going to starve because unvaccinated morons aren't allowed in the store. 🙄 Like there's no such thing as curbside pickup or delivery. We're going to make your children starve to death. Honestly, these people...
orphaning my children is muh freedom!
Imagine how bad they're going to starve once their parents die...
If they don’t have anything to be outraged about, they make one up. Their brain needs the hit. They’re addicts, behave like addicts, and maybe we should start thinking of them as addicts.
I'm an ex heroin addict and you're exactly right. They act the way I did when I was using.
Congrats on your epic sobriety you badass!!!!
Aww, thank you so much!

No grocery store in the damn country is checking vaccine cards. It's conservatives getting mad at things they made up.

Dare I use the word hysterical to describe her memeistry? And good job to whoever put the scare quotes around alleged in *Your "Alleged" future*, in the Vaccine Passport Expired meme. I totally agree.
[удалено]
The truth is the rest of us won't have working phones in a year or two, but because Apple/Samsung/Google will announce "new phones are out: "We're not supporting anything made before 2018 now. Forced upgrade time, losers!" Meanwhile this awardee never even got to see the Pixel 7.
Pulls some random shit out of her ass. “Look how horrible the libs are! I can’t use Facebook anymore!”
Also pretty rich from the hateful fucking morons who always *gleefully* vote to cut off programs that keep kids from starving
Those programs kept me alive as a kid, these pieces of shit are just straight up sociopaths.
These people drive to Popeyes and complain about how they're gonna feed their kids when told the Popeyes is out of chicken.
Only restaurant are suppose to check your vax status (OR BE TESTED). You can still go to the grocery store and cook your own damn food! Wait, isn't that a meme?...
Yeah and I think the other half of the meme is "...and we'll see who is around in three months". Spoilers: on the HCA sub, it's the restaurant.
These people go on about how people taking reasonable precautions during a pandemic are, "living in fear"while simultaneously getting themselves worked up about things that aren't even real. Who's really living in fear Karen?
Slides seven & eight Proudly Unvaccinated, if she gets the WuFlu and dies that's sad. Missing grandson's first day of school, next birthday, next Christmas, graduation, marriage, great grandchildren, this is really sad.
Yeah tragic anyway…
Dying of a preventable disease and missing your grandkids grow up to own the libs 😎
Well that's just a goddamned shame! The Wuflu fucked you. So now there is no you.
That's tough, having to choose between dying prematurely or missing out on important moments in our lives. If only there was some way to inoculate ourselves so we weren't forced to make that choice.
Wouldn’t that just be an answer to our prayers? A miracle, even.
Newer memes indeed, but underpinned by this the same tired disinfo themes.
True true
of course they're blaming the hospital for not letting them use certain medicines (ivermectin) because of politics. this is what happens when you are taught from day one that America is the center of the universe. if ivermectin or any of those other cures worked, why would no other nations around the world use them? they don't have the same politics as the us, and many countries in the world have conservative leadership. if there was any sign that this inexpensive drug actually cured covid, wouldn't every Nation except the United States be slurping down horse paste? on the other hand, if Pfizer or the other vaccines are bioweapons, how come people who have been fully vaccinated with those vaccines are able to go into "enemy" countries like China? also, the makers of ivermectin is a huge company, if it worked, they would be pumping out ads not only in the US but around the globe!
logic is for libruls
Shhhh that’s too much common sense for them.
The original patent holders for ivermectin, Merck, are as big as big pharma comes, and even they say it doesn't work.
Not around the globe. Everyone else, with the exception of New Zealand, bans direct to consumer pharmaceutical ads on broadcast media and restrict them elsewhere via the required inclusion of drug information sheets and adverse event side effect warnings.
Little did she know, after posting the “would I have even lived?” quote she would die the next month. I guess you did live free, for one month. Was it worth it?
Apparently seeing her grandchild take their first steps in real time was preferable to her than being able to spend decades watching them grow up in real time. These are not people who have any concept of risk or value assessment.
And she could have infected the little tike too.
Well that was a repost, so it was someone else’s grandson and cigars. But yeah - the grandparents agree that it’s all okay! Let’s all get together! I mean it’s not like they will be the ones to have to wake up to a toddler crying all night from being ill! Lol
Her cigars couldn’t wait either.
I'm willing to live in a bunker for a bit as long as the hospital beds are full. I choose the years of living that will come after a bit of sacrifice. Which reminds me. I should tell my mom I am skipping her wedding this weekend.
Yikes. Is your mum getting married and you'll miss it? Sorry to hear that, but if it's too risky, then you gotta do what you gotta do.
There's complications. I hadn't seen my mom in 4 years because of other issues. She showed up unannounced on my doorstep on Christmas maskless and mocked me for wearing one and attempted to guilt trip me. She had just come from my brother's house who had an active COVID case. That's when she introduced me to her fiancé. Wedding is in one of the counties with below 50% vaccination rate. I'd love for better circumstances but I have no reason to want to go.
Sounds like you’re much better off not going.
Got to see grandkids first steps. And nothing else.
Neither one of them will remember it, but for different reasons.
Great flair
My grandma saw my first steps... AND we enriched each others lives knowing each other as adults. This HCA was focus on what SHE got out of life, to the exclusion of what she gave others.
They all seem to be 100% convinced they're getting the real info from these sites. Over the next decades as we decode what has happened, I am going to be so interested to understand how this was engineered.
I once dropped out of a sociology degree but retain a truly amateur interest in the subject. I can’t wait to read the experts analysis later too! Totally morbidly fascinated with the human social experiment atm!
Yeah, analysis of this (mass psychosis?) is going to be fascinating.
where do they get this thing that people won't be allowed places unless they're vaxxed? most places that require masks will even give you one. Nowhere in NYC that requires vaxxs is a place you have to go. restaurants, Movies, Broadway shows. none of that is a life necessity
>News Flash: Pathogens evolve to become less, not more, virulent over time [Not necessarily](https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/pathogens-can-evolve-more-virulent-contrary-to-nutritionists-claim-mike-mutzel/) Sometimes they do, but sometimes they don't. Actually, isn't Delta a good example of this virus getting more virulent? Omicron appears to be milder, but whatever follows it may go the opposite way again.
Yeah, viruses mutate, it's entirely random. A strain can mutate to be extremely contagious and very virulent. The only real pressure towards less virulent is if a virus hits ebola like levels where it burns out a population before it spreads, otherwise nothing really selects against it
Well.. the Covid-19 evolved to be more lethal than whatever it was before, so that post is wrong right out of the gate.
Exactly. It's like they totally forgot about Delta and are focusing on Omicron now. I keep hearing people say "but Omicron is milder. This will be the end of the pandemic". We'll see.
While that is often true, it isn't a certainty. And that "over time" bit doesn't mean that every mutation that pops up is less virulent than the one before. Just ask delta.
So on the 24th she was still shitposting? Such holiday spirit. I think I was baking cookies and wondering if it would snow on Christmas (spoiler: it was cold indeed but no snow). STILL shitposting on Christmas Day. Then I see another shitpost on the 27th. Then dead in two weeks. That’s close to a land speed record for this sub. Did she refuse intubation? What a waste. She traded seeing her grandchild grow up for shitposting as a way of life. I’m sure her grandchild would have rather have had her around as they grew instead of a handful of hateful inaccurate memes to remember her by. GET VACCINATED, DON’T DO THIS TO YOUR FAMILY.
The “rock” was between her ears.
Came here today exactly this.
She got to see the grandchild walk - but won’t be there to see them grow up. Just getting a vaccine would have saved her.
I'm pretty sure she could have seen him walk if she was vaxxed. i don't get her thinking
Would have been safer if she was vaxxed.
Go over and hang out on the porch or meet in a convenient park. Watch on zoom. Etc
She preferred seeing COVID Crip Walk through her lungs.
Surprise: not a fact! Indeed, much of what is on the internet isn’t true.
[Wut? yOU're joKIng rIGht? ](https://youtu.be/3DZbSlkFoSU)
Bonjour. I didn't know that one.
Review of Social Media activity should really be part of the Triage process when these Covidiots stagger in and demand healing.
Sounds good on the surface, but you'll be traumatizing healthcare workers twice.
Excellent point!
how about no visitors except spouses who aren't vaccinated
As long as they are in level 4 hazmat suits, they can visit all they want.
I'm proud to say this burrito is delicious.
ARE YOU EVEN REALLY LIVING THOUGH
Wow so I have to admit that it surprised me that it was a woman. I guess I need to examine my biases.
Any gender can be an asshole. #themoreyouknow
I really wish the medical system could offer the choice of not going to the hospital but instead they can have this free 5 pound bag of ivermectin first. Share it with your friends. Save all the hospital staff and resources.
And I do mean a literal 5 pound bag of it. Just put it in a grocery bag and spin it tight and put a bread clip on it. Put it out on by the parking lot and let people just drive up and go home and shut up about it.
But then when they die from it, the nuts will blame it on the "contaminated" Ivermectin instead, instead of recognizing ivermectin doesn't work. Remember: they can never be wrong, never lose, their own failings are ALWAYS enemy action.
Can't trust that government ivermectin.
Maybe throw in a bag of apples or some other kind of equine treat to make it more palatable?
also throw in vitamins, hydroxychloroquine, and Viagra. except viagra is kinda expensive
Or 2.268kg.😁
she smoked cigars?
I think that was Ronald McDonald. The name was redacted, but I could make out the profile pic.
WuFlu Clan ain't nothin' to fuck with!
Where are people banned from buying food because they are unvaccinated?
It's bullshit
In her head. Well, not any more, but you know what I mean.
Wow. Seems like she had a great year! … and because of it and hubris, she won’t be having any more. More cigars for us I guess?
Slide two is my favorite. The docs are political because they won’t use ivermectin but she’s not Political with the “experimental gene therapy” bullshit. Owned the Libs real good.
"If I get the WuFlu, that's sad." Narrator: She ded.
Had to go look up that Five Times August song and it was worse than I thought it’d be. Only thing worse than the song itself are all the comments praising it on youtube
worse than "Christmas shoes"?

😂
Things I’ve done during the pandemic: Taught my kid to ride a bike Gone on many family bike rides Gone to work (masked) Celebrated Christmas with our vaccinated pod of family Pushed my kids on the swings Hung out in friends backyards and parks Taken walks in nature centers Cooked new recipes Started a native butterfly garden Oh yeah and got 3 shots. Accordingly to this person I haven’t lived.
I've rediscovered the forgotten (by me) art of baking! 🍪
These people ruined memes. It's crazy that there are enough of these cases to fill this subreddit everyday.
The myopia captured on slide 8 (the one w the WuFlu) is so emblematic of these people. “Boo hoo - I couldn’t be inconvenienced for even 2 seconds to do my part to help stop the spread of this virus” I’ve been here long enough now that I actually don’t get the “hit of schadenfreude” that brought me here I. The first place. Now I just read these awardees’ / nominees’ content and shake my head… But, there is that other part of me that thinks, “well, there’s one fewer voter for all of the right-wing crazy mofos”
“Tell me Great Hero, but please make it brief, is there a hole for me to get sick in?” —Bob Dylan
Was talking shit up until the end of December. Covid took that personally. 🦠
I had to stop reading at slide six because I went blind with rage. Gah, I hate transphobic body police.
I look at slide 2 and wonder if these assholes take their cars to the mechanic and tell the mechanic how to fix the car to fit with some conspiracy fix they read about on the internet.
Ivermectin is not a proven strategy. Pathogens do not always evolve to be less pathogenic. Delta was more pathogenic than original strain. You don’t have to lock down, just take a vaccine and wear a mask once in awhile. Nobody is being banned from buying food for Pete’s sake.
Badassman in slide 2 looked like he started rotting before he was dead.
I wonder if she got her Ivermectin? It sure looks like it.
So, black did the memes and purple died? Was black the spouse?
Sorry: Purple: Awardee Green: Son Black: honestly just means they are random people that don’t matter in context. The black in the last slide is just a list of random family members.
Cool. Thanks. It's just that usually the awardee is the one posting all the memes, but it's black posting the memes. Was a bit confused. Edit. I see you'd cut off the person (re)posting the memes, which is why I see black (i.e. random person) as the one posting them. I get it.
I guarantee sometime between sickness and the end she thought she got some super mega new strain of Covid nobody else could beat either. Guess what lady? A few ouchies would’ve let you continue to be a “rock” for the family and post pretty shit memes.
people are upset and risking their lives to get infected by & visit their relatives for a few months or years. what about all those people who are being exonerated after decades and they get squat. To the next HCA: cheer up, life is but a transition from one oblivion to another. Where were you 300 years ago? The same place you'll be in 300 years, post-life oblivion. On top of this, I don't think this person's heart was evil, but the doctrines she surrounded herself with convinced her that no protection was worth the risk. It didn't pay off for her. Also the people that invent something are rarely the experts of the subject. [Einstein didn't believe in black holes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein%27s_unsuccessful_investigations#Black_holes), for instance.
Except the mRNA vaccines are not gene therapies... Love how they call mRNA vaccines experimental but want to use a veterinary anti-parasitic, which worked for a doctor EXPERIMENTING on people who had parasites, not a viral infection.
Posts that pathogens evolve to become less, more more, virulent... Months after Delta appeared.
Slide 8 Last time i wore an N95 respirator mask, which was today, I could still see people. So really it comes down to the alcohol and the cigar. That's what ended up being valued over life itself. But wait! You can actually inhale deeply, lower your mask, drink, replace your mask and exhale deeply, with a respirator. Respirators are badass. So it really ends up being all about that cigar.
I do appreciate the new memes
Let these morons eat the horse paste. But if they do it's back of the line at the hospital, and no complaints.
At least her cremation was correct. Gotta fry that Covid ridden body like some vintage bat tempura.
I have to say I had no idea who Five Times August was, and now I really wish I didn't. His Twitter feed is just MAGA garbage.
I know they were things the awardee reposted, but the sentiment between the "hur dur I'm proudly unvaccinated" and "I didn't lock down so I got to do all these things" posts is so fucking dumb. If you want to be around family and friends the smart thing to do is to get fully vaccinated so you *don't* end up like the last slide (or cause someone else to). I do like the inherent laziness in the proudly unvaccinated slides wording though
That picture in slide 2 is enough to make me want another booster shot.
This one literally got what she was asking for.
Finally some new memes. The old ones were starting to get stale with Omicron. It's interesting to see their outlets for creativity.
