    Thanks for sharing. Using this at work now to remind people that it's no time to "relax" our COVID safety measures.

    Geez has there really been a surge in deaths over the past month? The graphic makes it looks like those bunches are huge in that timeframe. Apparently I’ve become numb to it at this point or something.

    Why don't people ever mention in these articles that if you die of anything and you have covid traces in your body. It's still a covid death.

    The always credible "it happened to my uncle" story.

  8. Okay....let's go with that. Let's say Covid deaths ARE inflated. Hell, let's say 20% of all covid deaths were actually just bad luck with some naughty cells traveling along.

    That still leaves 400,000 people dead, or for context, 134 9/11's or the entire population of New Orleans. So...what exactly is your point lol

    How many people do you think die per year? Say like 2019? Pre "pandemic"

    Haha that does sound funny. But it's true.


    after a 3 second search. Here is illinois admitting inflated deaths.

    Do some research. Definitely inflated.

    here is just one instance from 1 state in 1 video.
     
  12. Again, giving you the benefit of the doubt that it’s inflated, what tides it matter? Like is 400k a more acceptable number? I don’t get what point you’re trying to make.
     
  13. Is your point that COVID isn’t a big deal and all 500,000 of those people were gonna die regardless?

    My point is total deaths in 2020 are about the same as 2019,2018,2017..

    AMC is just trolling, and clearly doing a lazy job at it

    I'm really not. Also not anti vaxer or Q person or whatever. I just question everything. Need to open your eyes. I was asleep at one time too.

    I'm not trying to start anything. I just don't get why people just believe everything they see on tv. It's just weird to me. I'm done with this topic.
    I'm more excited for these new AFI songs...
     
  22. "Don't believe everything you see on TV" turning into instead "say batshit crazy stuff online instead" seems like a you thing.

    Let's get this straight. Everything you see, hear and read is real? You don't question anything? Everything the media and government say is 100% true?

    The things pointing out that we have 600K+ excess deaths this year and that covid deaths are actually undercounted are true.

    The things claiming without teal context that deaths are unchanged from years past and that covid deaths are over counted are not true.

    This is where my southern friends would just jump in and say “well, bless your heart”
