nearly 400k dead. Not that deadly.

400k have not died from covid, 400k have died while having covid.

Yet again, how deadly it might be isn't even the point, are widespread economic lockdowns a sensible reaction to it? There are many perfectly valid arguments that they aren't. Reasonable people are willing to discuss it, rather than covering your ears and going "Can't hear you 400k dead the sky is falling!!".

If people were honest and reasonable about this, there would be two numbers: Number of people who have died *because* of covid, and number of people who have died while simply having it. The 400k figure is used to fear monger and is incredibly boneheadedly simple and almost useless for determining how risky it actually is and whether lockdowns make sense.

Boy you sure are reactionary and politically motivated by this disease, it's just bizarre man. I hope you're okay.

Calling someone politically motivated because they think we should be doing everything we can to prevent 400 thousand people from dying is one of the dumbest statements I’ve heard.

I have a question for you, what do you do for work?

Ignorant losers cannot be reasoned with. It's why they advocate death, violence, and rebellion.

So they were alive, they got covid, they then died.

So they were alive, they went sky diving, they then died.

So they were alive, they got shot, they then died.

So they were alive, they overdosed on drugs, they then died.

So did any of that kill the people or were they suffering from other stuff then died with a gun shot wound?

Yep. He posted about driving down into Portland.

I wonder where his trailer is really located at. I would have guessed Nashville, but he's still posting.

Well I'm not sure how that is pertinent to the risks of covid VS the risks of lockdowns but okay.

Also please let's not pretend that we aren't all gigantic, disturbed nerds just by virtue of the fact that any of us post here at all. In off-topic no less. This unites us all.

I'm sorry, I live on the east coast *now*. My brother lives in san francisco and one of my friends from highschool lives in portland. I'm not exactly sure I have any obligation to give you every specific detail of my life, but nice try!

Of course we should. People, especially old people, die from getting a bad cold. They die from getting the flu. We don't shut everything down for either of those. Please explain why covid is different.

I went to school for audio production but for the last several years I've been doing google adsense cause a degree in audio production doesn't pay super well unless you have connections.
