We must stop treating people as expendable.
“Covid is only a risk to the vulnerable” has given way to “only sick children should die of measles.”
We’ve embraced eugenics, and many folks don’t even realize it.
Every time you say “did they have a pre-existing condition” when someone dies… you’re making it easier for fascists to eliminate us
Stephen Hawkings would have been let die by the fascists....
@broadwaybabyto @socketwench "did they have a pre-existing condition" yeah, that's called being alive. I'm certain they wouldn't have died if they weren't.
Edited to add:
Also, would you like them to have such conditions? Signed, person with type 1 diabetes after flu.
The sentences "only sick children should die of measles" and "sick children should die" don't have essentially different meanings, and we should form the appropriate opinion of anyone who says either of them.
@broadwaybabyto
Apart from this, the claim is untrue: COVID significantly harms and kills non-vulnerable, too. (And many who are vulnerable aren't aware they are.)
