Dude didn’t think the flu was dangerous

Oh yeah, champ? Why don’t you quote for the class, to illustrate your point? Nobody said that, you said they said that. And you want an apology from me? Fucking lol. I’d give you basic reading comprehension skills instead, but such miracles are beyond my powers.

COVID wasn’t novel in 2022, and it still killed 267,000 people. Meanwhile you keep equating it to a virus that killed 608 in that time span. Bud, I don’t know how to explain that those zeroes on the end are important. More number mean bigger number. Bigger death == worse, yes? Yes.

You’re one of those dangerous cunts who knows how to speak with authority and spouts nothing but bollocks, like this:

and now we can’t do the “more or less dangerous” science in a simple statistical manner.

That’s a load of wank if ever I’ve heard one; of course we can compare them. COVID is about 439 times deadlier than the flu, in addition to causing an increased rate of post-infection complications and illnesses compared to other respiratory illnesses.

If this is your best, it isn’t remotely good enough. Try putting some effort in.

It is not short-lived or mild with COVID which is kind of the whole point here.

You have no right to tell someone they can’t rape or murder as they see fit. You have no right to tell someone they can’t abuse their child. You have no right to tell a corporation they can’t dump their toxic waste with abandon. You have no right to tell businesses they can’t discriminate against minorities. You have no right to tell the police they can’t abuse their power. You have no right to tell members of Congress they can’t use their knowledge and position to their advantage in the markets they help regulate.

Bullshit, entirely bullshit. You simply choose not to exercise that right, and you abdicate your responsibility as a citizen. Do you not want to leave this place better, for future generations? How do you not do everything in your power, including to vote, to try and improve things for everyone?

You do know we can spot non-sequiturs, and that they make you look stupid, right? You did that because you don’t have an answer, so you just twisted their words in a weak attempt to mock them.

COVID causes long COVID. I’ve never heard of “long flu” because it doesn’t exist. As far as actual death goes, the flu killed 608 people in 2022. COVID killed OVER A QUARTER OF A MILLION in the same time period. Two hundred and sixty seven thousand of my countrymen. You fucking clown.

Well, we have more teeth than we have eyes. Supply and demand.

Not “might”. Will. And voting is absolutely not tantamount to telling other people how to live their lives, it is rather a statement on the way you think things should be run. You have a right to that, because we live in a society together. If you think you can go be a hyperindividualist all by yourself, you will most likely die early, but more importantly you will never enrich anyone else’s life, or have your own enriched by others. We’re all individuals, but we are part of a greater whole.

And just to play this angle: if you won’t vote because you “won’t tell others how to live”, then you would equally stand by and let the evil harm the helpless, for the same reason. Get off your fence and stand for something.

You’re assuming that the criteria for “serious” would be in any way logical, rather than “whatever the fuck they feel like”.

So for chronically (lol) underweight people or people with little-to-no body fat, this is much less likely to be an issue?

I know it’s not for most people, but figured the suggestion couldn’t hurt. That’s a hard situation, no question. I hope you’re both able to find happiness!
