And permantly disfigured even more with long COVID.

They knew what would happen. The US is wealthy with a huge military force. They could have locked down and mobilised their army to protect people until it was over.

But the oligarchs didn't want to slow their profits and give up even an inch of their wealth and power, so COVID was allowed to run rampant. They sacrified their own people to the virus. These people did not willingly sacrifice themselves, they were killed through purposeful negelect.

They also encouraged other countries to do the same. My own country hardly had any deaths before US officials visited and pressured them to open again.

It's no longer tracked properly so who knows the full extent of the death.

This could be one of the largest mass killings in history.

The worst part is when the news tries to spin how traumatic it was for kids to endure our pathectic excuse for a 'lockdown', instead of how traumatic it was to watch our countries murder millions for nothing and hear our friends and families parrot eugenics talking points to try and justify it.

EDIT: [CONTENT WARNING] There is a blue MAGA from another instance in the comments who is hand waving away peoples COVID experiences, so if you have lost a loved one to this disease or had your life or loved ones affected by it, reading the comments here might stir some trauma. Just a heads up.

My mom was one of them. not get the shot. She was starting to come around to the idea of getting the J&J shot because it's a traditional vaccine, then she was spooked off by the news telling her that it caused blood clots...

CW: Death She fought for about a day to take her breathing mask off because having things strapped to her face caused panic attacks for her. They sedated her as best they could, but any further and it would have likely killed her. For hours on end she wrestled with my partner, the nurse, and I, flailing in a blind panic until she couldn't keep it up anymore. Her lungs were obliterated and showed solid white on the X-rays; she wasn't even a candidate for intubation. I held her hand while she drowned in her own liquified lungs, till her pulse just faded...

I wouldn't feel an ounce of sympathy for the individuals responsible for allowing it to play or like it did. But the capitalist system is what made these monsters, and I don't want the heads of the Hydra, I want to stab straight into the heart.

Thank you. I believe we'll see a better day where these things won't happen anymore.

I'm sorry to hear that this happened to you. I remember seeing my dad in the ITU when he got ill with COVID, and it's not something I'll ever forget.
