@DailyJLee restaurant and bar owners were
against early mitigation efforts.
now their customers have no sense of taste
and a lowered alcohol tolerance.
@michael_hoerger it is a cognitive error to ascribe this as
"a cognitive error"
when it is a deliberate strategy
to minimize and obscure the danger of covid.
@DailyJLee@AdamTsuris "almost impossible to answer" isn't good enough
for the m'n'o crowd (minimizers and obscurers).
they won't stop until it's fully impossible.
@chelseacuzzocr4@DailyJLee masking is a strategy requiring
mass adoption to work best.
so is denial.
society cannot have it both ways.
this society is choosing denial.
@DailyJLee the denial we've seem so far is minor-league.
75% of the folks who've had covid "4 or 5 times"
can explain away the health issues they have.
@DailyJLee one of the more curious things was seeing those
tv commercials highlighting rsv when we know
darn well covid is more common and more deadly.
@BirdieBittern she is ensconced in the elites,
so her financial future is ensured,
no matter what happens with her voice.
she could retire comfortably now.
@DailyJLee if the response has to "come from the people",
there will be no response, and you know it.
the job is to protect yourself when others don't.
@TopherSpiro a family of four with an annual income of $130k?
maybe they'll get some empathy for the single mom
pleading for a raise of the minimum wage?
@BirdieBittern@TMZ "plane crash" in a headline is too sensationalistic.
we need specification whether it's a "private plane"
or a "commercial passenger plane".
@DailyJLee it made me wonder about mortality numbers.
a 15% infection rate would not cause enough deaths
that it would have to be immediately apparent.
@DcrInYYC@1goodtern every drug-pusher knows that if they can
make the user dependent on the product,
the revenue stream will be bigger and
much more dependable.
