Remember when we found out the US military was running anti-vaxx campaigns in the Philippines because China encouraged US citizens to investigate Fort Detrick?

[–] ohulancutash@feddit.uk 79 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Or because they didn’t want them grateful to China for the Covid vaccine.

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 46 points 4 days ago

Yeah, that too.

By nearly all measures of science, if there was evidence of a natural origin it would have already surfaced. But it hasn’t.

i-cant god damn dawg we're all getting sent to the camps by some of the dumbest motherfuckers to ever live

To be fair to the Trump regime (lol), the original Nazis were also really fucking dumb. They thought nuclear physics was "Jew science" because of contributions by Einstein and other Jewish physicists. Or how they rejected sloped armor on tanks because "German steel is superior. The soviets use sloped armor because they're poor and stupid. Bolshevik steel is worse than aluminum!"

There's a bunch of examples of 1940s fascists being wildly incompetent. Italy not being able to invade Ethiopia or causing more problems for the Axis on the Eastern front. Japan's army and navy competing with one another and not sharing intel. There was at least one instance where the Japanese navy left a bunch of troops stranded for no reason other than to make army officers look bad for getting captured/killed. Just cartoon levels of buffoonery.

On some level it makes sense; Communism is objectively correct and better at improving outcomes for humanity. The only people who will strongly, actively reject that are fucking idiots.

So of course the fascists are all the dumbest people you’ve ever met. It’s a movement by and for morons.

LOCKDOWNS:

Prolonged lockdowns caused immeasurable harm to not only the American economy, but also to the mental and physical health of Americans, with a particularly negative effect on younger citizens. Rather than prioritizing the protection of the most vulnerable populations, federal and state government policies forced millions of Americans to forgo crucial elements of a healthy and financially sound life.

bait

[–] porcupine@lemmygrad.ml 46 points 4 days ago

The most vulnerable populations: businesses owners

[–] BilduEnjoyer@hexbear.net 23 points 3 days ago

lol my mental health was thriving during lockdown. I was doing so many hobbies. My friends held discord movie watch parties and I reconnected with a lot of people.

I’m also an introverted nerd tho.

[–] TheModerateTankie@hexbear.net 33 points 4 days ago

They are fixing the problem of bad policy by getting rid of policies

[–] PanArab@lemm.ee 19 points 3 days ago

The lockdowns made remote work the norm in my industry and I'm thankful for that. My mental and physical health couldn't be better now that I don't regularly suffer rush hour traffic.

So if it's a lab leaked supervirus WMD bioweapon, that means we should get vaccinated against it and do some quarantine?

I know you all (most of you all) are just joking. But please remember that COVID didn't originate from Ft. Detrick either.

*yes I know a lot of other biological weapons did

given how dumb these people are, do we think it'd be hard to externally replace that page with the imgur link?

I had a horrible cough that lasted 3 weeks and I felt like I was dying. Laid on my stomach on my bed coughing towards the floor with my head drooping off the bed for days. This was January 2020. I am in the US, and around many people from around the world indoors often, especially people from asia. I think I had covid before the first official diagnosis was confirmed in the USA. Anyway...

[–] Xiisadaddy@lemmygrad.ml 19 points 3 days ago (2 children)

My town got hit back in november-december of 2019. Eastern US. My entire workplace got taken out one after another all down for the count for like a week. I also remember around the same time seeing stories of an unidentified flu-like illness in nursing homes in the area. I've had covid a couple times after the official recognition too, and im telling you i had covid in the US in 2019.
