    Wow this is a terrifyingly uninformed take. So much so that in the old days I would have assumed that it was satire.

    Covid 19 is well understood to have massive cardiovascular impacts. But i’m sure it cannot be the obvious and well documented thing. Surely it must be the thing you don’t like, and have been indoctrinated without evidence to hate.

      No, I was a first responder during C-19. I have friends that died from C-19, well pneumonia related and weight. It was a knee jerk reaction by the government and they overstepped. I am fully vaccinated because it was required.

      The world still hasn’t recovered from the C-19.

        The government did not overstep. We hand one the most muted and incompetent responses of any government in a wealthy industrialized nation. Trump and his fascists literally did everything they could to accelerate it. That and we americans are so selfish and arrogant. That we did not listen when the government finally started pushing out good policy under the Biden administration. Who barely did anything above and beyond the bare minimum.

          I mean when people are being compensated because government forced vaccination or resign. That is the definition of overstepping.

            Not at all. To be clear I don’t think federal or state government should exist. However this is America. We don’t guarantee anyone a job or right to continue existing in general. Though we should considering the constitution sort of implies we should. Life, liberty, pursuit of happiness all that.

            Overstepping would have been forcefully vaccinating them without consent. Those that had legitimate reasons not to get vaccinated were exempted. Those that couldn’t meet the job requirements, or actively wanted to work to sabotage leaderships goals. Could have just been let go. But were still compensated. More than most people would get.

            That just means this administration is made up of conspiracy cranks.

            They also paid Ashley Babbitt’s family $5m because she was rightfully killed while storming the capital.
