It's not falling when they're being thrown. He's got fucking blood on his hands and I hate that criticizing him is considered a right-wing talking point.

If anybody tries to call you right-wing for thinking he should fuck off, ask them why they supported the AIDs epidemic ripping through the gay community while Fauci did absolutely nothing

[-] GorbinOutOverHere@hexbear.net 29 points 1 year ago

You know liberals will just turn to the "that was a long time ago people can change" shit like they always do when it's convenient

"that was a long time ago people can change"

"Well, now would be a great time to start"

[-] Magician@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Pretty much. I love how Fauci, Bush, and Biden can change, but the entire population of a state that voted red in 2016 deserves whatever oppression or climate disaster they get.

[-] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 37 points 1 year ago

is that a euphemism for "many will straight up fuckin die"?

[-] sovietknuckles@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago

From the article:

Fauci’s comments reiterate the declaration in January 2022 by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky that the fact that COVID-19 predominantly kills people who are “unwell to begin with” is “encouraging news.”

farnsworth GOOD NEWS FOLKS

I mean, it is better news then “kills healthy young people”.

Obviously better nobody die, but better if someone dies a few months early than a few decades early.

Completely false choice you're illustrating. The older people you're describing would live on for decades without COVID exposure.

They are going to die because your country doesn't have the social consciousness to wear mask, at minimum, during the winter surges.

You are giving credit to fascist eugenics over the bare minimum collective action. It's extremely easy to wear an aura N95 Mask. Other countries do it very easily which is why families aren't dropping like flies.

American nurses don't even wear masks anymore, I've personally seen COVID positive patients assigned rooms with uninfected patients. After infection these people go from stable health to rapid decline from organ damage.

The same way you probably wouldn't have had a heart attack until 2070 if you didn't take repeated blunt force trauma to the chest for 2 weeks this year.

[-] persolb@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Agree, but I’d be saying the same thing about Japan.

[-] BeamBrain@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago

Liberals sure do love their eugenics

[-] NoLeftLeftWhereILive@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

What gets me is that how can average, supposedly for human rights, supposedly progressive people read this and be like "ok, fair enough".

I wish it was clearer that being able-bodied is not a state anyone can just expect to be all their life. And that, no, it really mostly isn't about anyones individual choices.

These public health guys are all just absolute ghouls. When you start to look at the things pubic health is for and who it benefits, it's just crystal clear. Neoliberalism really found a home in public health too, they were the first to adapt bs like nudging. It's vile.

And never will these guys be held accountable for any of this. If anyone deserves the wall it's these guys.

Wow, that makes me feel so much better about how Covid has and is being handled in the USdean-smile

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

very-intelligent "Some will be horribly disabled, but still live, actually!"

[-] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 25 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I have been constantly wearing kn-95 masks for like 4 years. Glad to see all that time protecting myself and others has been rewarded with... being gleefully murdered. Fuck this guy and this country.

Sometimes I see things that make me sad I'm an atheist. This man will not burn in Hell for all eternity. There is no Devil's taffy puller that will wring out his soul for 400 quintillion years. He just rots like everyone else.
