Who'd have thunk that letting liars and gaslighters run rampant with no repercussions for the amount of death they caused would mean that they had an impact on public health discourse and that instead of locking up these asshats for being dangers to public health by purposefully going in public to cough on people and other dumb loser shit, we went "Oh no, these people vote, and they hate vaccines, so fuck public health, we need to listen to these fucking losers. Oh and also rich fucks like Elon Musk don't care if poor people die so they want their factories open and open NOW. Guess we better give in completely than trust in science and try to deal with this disease effectively."
Nope, better to let literally everything get politicized to the point that fucking jackasses just make up shit constantly and it gets treated by the media with the same seriousness as people with fucking medical and scientific credentials. Who'd have thought letting that happen would massively increase burnout in medical professionals who don't love showing up to work to be abused, harassed, and treated like they're behind a hoax and that this lead to many quitting in great numbers.
I mean, what the fuck do we expect from a CDC that said "Fuck the curve, get the poors back the fuck to work, cut the isolation time in more than half," and more recently said "You know what? Fuck isolation times entirely, go to work sick because grandma and grandpa dying for the economy is more important." Like the CDC killed their own public trust with people who understood science by backing down for fucking idiots and rich asshats who don't give a fuck how many people die as long as they line their pockets. Why do we give a single flying fuck about the "public trust" of absolute fucking morons, liars, and gaslighters? Those asshats are not operating in good faith to begin with, so why always fucking capitulate to their fucking lies and the false reality that they peddle?
Like just so much of this was preventable. I feel like I'm taking fucking crazy pills.
EDIT: I do understand it was always a foregone conclusion that Trump wouldn't take it seriously, but that shouldn't absolve every asshat around him who followed suit. Him essentially sentencing millions to death because he hoped it would impact Democrat strongholds more since it initially was found there should have been what lead to him being taken to the Hague and hung by his neck for his crimes against humanity but our government is filled with weak willed fucking pussies and same goes for our heavily armed citizenry.
