Exactly.
In the US Covid has become a political issue.
After the omicron? variant or whatever one that was harmless and even not noticable to most healthy people ost countries went back to normal.
When I saw images from the US with many people wearing masks outdoors literally years later and I asked why I got immediately attacked as a bleach injecting Trumper.
I'm European. And the US is fucked up in many ways.
Did you inject the bleach into your brain? Because this uninformed, selfish statement would sure fit right in this dumpster fire of the USA
LOL
Yes, practically all governments in the world and their experts are misinformed.
Only the blue US MAGA cult is right bcs they must do the opposite of the red MAGA cult even to the absurd.
You are a joke.

The shift in conversations on Lemmy after people fled Reddit is so glaringly obvious.
"X or Y? Pssh. How can you even consider something I don't personally understand? Much prefer to voice an ignorant opinion."
It really is. Lately, people here are so quick to either attack, or assume they’re being attacked. Someone just accused me of “lashing out” yesterday for explaining why a mobility solution they put forward for disabled people wouldn’t work for two disabled people that I personally know. No insults, no accusations, I even outright said “I sympathize” with the other commenter and their goals. I thought I worded my point in a neutral way, but someone still took offense so… I don’t know what else to say.
I figure it’s a trauma response from being entrenched in Reddit. Like people are primed to expect a fight and don’t know how to process a calm, ordinary conversation online anymore.
I really enjoyed the prior Lemmy wherein people led with their expertise, or approached conversation as an opportunity to learn.
This new paradigm of "my emotional impulse is equal to your knowledge" is definitely a decline, imo.
Claiming COVID is no worse than the flu demonstrate absolute no expertise though. There’s no both sides to such a misinformed comment.
