We were never supposed to go back to normal so soon. People pushed and pushed and pushed and stopped caring about being sick. And then cases and deaths shot up because no one waited for the immunizations.

no then we're supposed to make gradual adjustments to account for the fact there is still a global pandemic.

Life expectancy is lower than the age where you're over 1% likely to die from COVID.
Scarlet
is it so difficult to show compassion for the people who will survive with lifelong health complications, in a country where you're more likely to go homeless than pay your medical bills
Chary
So? Would you wanna risk granny to that 1% so we can go maskless into Kmart and lick the ice cream cartons??

It helps when your grandparents live in a different state.
Chary
So only your grandparents and your personal comfort matter out of the millions of senior lives endangered by covid

The responsibility of the individual falls upon themselves and their family exclusively.

my response can be summed up by pilate's great singing from 6:14 - https://youtu.be/3MlZOjw7H1U?t=374

So, in short. Selfishness is what drives your opinions. That’s both the least classically American and least Biblical thing I ever read someone say.
UltraSUPRA
Freedom and reality are what drives my opinions.

And I suppose your personal freedom is more important than another person's life? So then is it okay to shoot someone for freedom's sake? Like for instance - because I choose to shoot someone

Also, do you believe that overpopulation is an issue?
UltraSUPRA
Assault isn't freedom.
Chary
I'm honestly hard pressed to believe this isn't entirely satire at this point. Overpopulation exists, therefore let's allow maskless weirdos to snot all over people and kill them

Why isn't assault freedom? Please give me your definition. Obviously it is very complex and there must be certain actions that aren't permissible. I'm curious which ones aren't "true freedom" and why
UltraSUPRA
Assault and theft are the exceptions for freedom.
Chary
If you wanna twist it, you're assaulting them with biohazard material from breathing while infected. Would you want someone with AIDS to cover up any bleeding wounds they have? Well, that's uncomfortable for them. So let's allow their blood to leak around some places, if people get AIDS from it, well hey, it's the person's problem for getting it.

If assault isn't freedom, then infecting people with a disease isn't freedom either.
Also, by your overpopulation argument, the Holocaust was a good thing because it cut down our numbers.

Why are they the exceptions to freedom? What made you choose those 2 things? I'm curious
