when did I say the CDC is classifying 'every death as COVID'?
8000 americans die a day. that would put the total deaths at over 500k if that was the case.

I said there are two major issues with the numbers: 1. CDC does not require a positive test to count a death as corona, so long as the symptoms appear similar. as we know of course, respiratory illnesses all share several similarities so it is impossible to know if it's corona.
2. They will count all positive cases even if it's blatantly obvious that it was not the cause of death. For example, I linked an article to how washington counted 4 gun deaths to corona.

The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”

how do you feel about the CDC's death rate?
please stop avoiding this.

according to the CDC, who you hold in VERY HIGH REGARD, the death rate is less than the flu if you are under 50. if you are under 30 you have a better chance of getting hit by lightning than dying of corona.

considering the above, do you feel that the lockdown is justified?

before I go into the verbage and the strawmans

what would be your estimate of actual covid deaths then? and by your standards how many would be "required"for a lockdown? you see how this is gonna get stupid?

even if the numbers were at 60k, it still did what the flu did in a year, in 3 months....during a lockdown. with no vaccine. so how low do youthinkthese numbers are?

You say this as if you're viewing the issue from a sound perspective of logic. Why don't you factor in the fact that no science supports the nothion of masks doing anything? Unless you're wearing N-95 masks properly fitted and disposing of them after one use, your mask does nothing to prevent the spread of the tiny COVID virus.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. When you fart, why does it stink up the entire surrounding area despite said fart having to travel through both your underwear and pants? Because cloth does nothing to stop aerosolized particles. Same thing appllies to half asssed masks and stopping a tiny virus. The masks will only stop giant droplets from actively cougbing/sneezing people, in which case they shouldn't be out in the first place during a pandemic.

That's a bit of a deflection. The point is ... it should be up to me to decide. AND ifyoudisagree with my choice then avoid me, avoid places i visit, vote with your feet, close your business to me (if you own one and disagree with my choice).

It's just a mask... RIIIIGHT. That's why there are all kinds of reports of arrests, fines, people losing their livelihoods, business getting slapped with huge fines for opening, etc. Give and inch and these power hungry people take a mile. EVERY FKN TIME.

answer the damn question...why do you keep avoiding it?

why are you so mentally and emotionally invested in bad news? shouldn't you be happy that the death rate is so low? most normal people upon hearing that this 'pandemic' is actually less deadly than the flu would celebrate. why are you denying and ignoring the good news instead of being happy?

Masks don't do anything unless you have it.

And if that's the case you shouldn't be walking around anyways.

Hence masks are actually useless.

even if I granted you 40k deaths OFF, we would be at 50k deaths during a lockdown.

and I'm not even conceding those numbers are entirely inaccurate. I read that they list pre-existing issues but if signs point to covid/testing point to covid then they will list covid. but this isn't even the point


say I give you 40k deaths off, okay we're at 50k in 3 months. what umber is "good enough" to lock-down dude lol.

You *******s make it too easy. Clearly, you tried to use this article to support your narrative.

Actual article title: COVID-19-related deaths likely being undercounted in WA

the article goes on to say:
Not included in the state’s COVID-19 death count is approximately 3,000 cases where the person’s death certificate indicated symptoms similar to COVID-19, but it’s not clear if COVID-19 actually played a role in the person’s death, Hutchison said.

"We suspect that we are actually more likely to be undercounting deaths than overcounting them," Hutchison told reporters.

Because he's most likely been all-in with the fear mongering and feels the need to make a "last stand" against looking like a complete idiot.

Dude needs to learn when to hold'em and when to fold'em.

Nothing cool or respectable about going down with a sinking ship just cause your ego won't let you admit you were wrong the whole time.

What's funny is show them an article saying Covid deaths are likely being unaccounted for and they're ready to go to war.

Tell them how actual doctors are saying Covid death numbers are being falsified and exaggerated and they want: the original document, the author, the surveillance tape, fingerprints, five eye witness testimonials and a blessing from The Pope.

Again, it comes down to rights vs privileges. I can't fly an airplane without training, nor can I drive without a seatbelt.

Not being forced to wear a mask, burka, star of david ... is a constitutional right.

did you not see the information going in the other direction? did you skip that?

and what about me mock conceding and giving you 40k deaths off? what number is good enough for a lockdown lol im asking you? how low do YOU think the numbers actually are?

say I give you 40k deaths off, okay we're at 50k in 3 months. what umber is "good enough" to lock-down dude lol.
you are so programmed it would take hours to de-program you.

1. Lockdowns DO NOT SAVE LIVES. That is a lie. Every country, every state has more or less followed the same graph for corona, regardless of when they locked down, if they locked down or how strict the lockdown was. Corona peaked over a month ago and then began falling everywhere.

If lockdowns saved lives, then why has Georgia and Florida rates and deaths fallen SINCE REOPENING? Wouldn't 'lockdowns saves lives' logic hold that the rates should shoot up again???

2. Lockdowns KILL huge amounts of people to non corona. There will be significantly more deaths as a result of the lockdown than corona. Massive numbers of cancer related deaths due to lack of available treatment. Huge increase in deaths from suicide, poverty etc..

130 million extra people could be on the brink of starvation globally due to the lockdowns.

If the government with all its power and influence can't make an argument convincing enough to get most people to voluntary wear a mask... that is enough to be very suspect of their intentions.


Are you a virologist? Have you studied the virus? Have you quadruple checked the info that is being thrust on you? Have you specifically studied this virus? Can you even prove its existence? What is it that you actually know and can prove in this case?

^^Take all that and multiple it by tens of millions of people. All adopting a stance... and taking various sides... by appealing to authority. It's pretty interesting that all this freedom stripping and authoritarianism is based on something that you can't see with your own eyes, and that very few people on this planet have the means to verify.

I've seen some of the nastiest chit spewed between "once" friends on social media in the last few months ... and none of these people "actually" know what they're talking about. They're all making judgements based off some chit they heard someone in a fancy positions with a few fancy titles next to their name say. Pretty damned frightening if you ask me. Shows how vulnerable our society is to any person or group of persons that wanted to be truly nefarious.

Stats and links of peace and prosperity. More baseless claims.

NYC Mayor and Gov. acknowledge the death toll would be 20K less if the lockdowns were enacted sooner. I remember Cuomo saying there is no way NYC could shut down at the time. You have no idea how pandemics spread lol
