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.
I'm not from around here, what's a blue MAGA?
It's that kind of frothing at the mouth energy trump supporters have, but in support of the Democratic Party.
No way to get through to most of them and they'll spew talking points in support of their bland politician like
. No class or material analysis. Just blue team red team shit.
There's also the element of how a lot of liberals will start acting strikingly similar to conservatives when confronted with criticism from the left of themselves.
I think it's for a Democrat type person that defends the US's actions. American exceptionalism is common for both parties.
I guess you know that MAGA is "make America great again", which is Trump's thing.
"everything would be fine if only Obama were president again"
There's been a type of Democrat hard liner since Biden came to power that is aggressively nationalist and aggressively supports their team without any interest in outcomes. Their behavior resembles maga republicans enough to have inspired the "blue maga" epithet, essentially accusing them of being indistinguishavle from maga fascists beyond their choice of team affiliation.
