The last two months have been a goddamn rollercoaster.
It almost makes me wonder if we really are in a sim and someone is just pressing buttons to fuck with us and see what we do.

You know how those commercials for toothpaste will say something like, “4 out of 5 doctors agree! Crest Whitening Formula is the best toothpaste on the market!”
… It’s not 4 out of 5. It’s more like… 999 out of 1000 when you actually query epidemiologists. These people do this for a living. And bluntly, without disrespect… they are so, so much smarter than you or I ever will be. And this is the area they chose to specialize in and spent their whole lives studying.
You don’t just ‘get’ to go work at the CDC. That’s the equivalent of the NBA of doctors. They’re such a prestigious organization that most other countries name their pandemic management centers after our CDC. And if they tap you to come work for them? You just go. They’re basically humanity’s first line of defense to make sure our overpopulated behinds don’t get jacked by the next Ebola or Smallpox that might be lurking around the corner.
If a global community of doctors with these qualifications say something related to ‘their’ field? Just shut up and listen, man. I swear, most of you have more respect for your plumber or electrician than you do for someone who is likely smarter than anyone you’ve ever met in real life.
Hah, I totally missed that, you got me. :D
Take your upvotes and go.
Ooh, we got one. That’s actually kind of impressive. You were the first one dumb enough to bother to comment. If this was Facebook, the comment section would be absolutely littered with you lot.
Did you notice anything else about the meme?
Shhh. 🤫
No, you’re not a special little cookie that knows more than the entire global medical community.
(I left a little trap in the meme for the clowns that would claim otherwise. Let’s see if we catch any.)
The US had a 2x mortality rate of Canada. 6x higher compared to South Korea, 10x of Japan the first two years of Covid. Even going with the lowest number, about 500,000 Americans could have survived with even marginally competent leadership. One that might not have…
… Hitler killed less Americans than Trump did. That’s just facts.
