Imagine being so intellectually dishonest you openly say omicron is worse than polio.

Wokeism is worse than polio.

Polio was nearly eliminated by the time the vaccine actually arrived.

Then they managed to cripple or kill tens of thousands of children by 'accidentally' releasing a bad vaccine in what is known as the Cutter incident.

It really is astonishing how people refuse to acknowledge history because it is inconvenient.

Be pretty funny if the accepted number ends up being 6 million.

But if that's true you'd expect to see it in the excess death statistics, which you don't. The numbers just don't add up. Yeah some people died, but to say it was six million is just ludicrous.

True.

There have never been comparable rates of mental illness, hormonal imbalance, diabetes, STDs, or obesity at any time in human history.

Masses of histrionic and narcissistic people are eating themselves to death. By age 25 half of everyone has an STD. It's a giant condemnation of our entire civilization. Progress and the modern lifestyle is a dead end pumping out broken people.

Weirdly the people at the top don't care about any of these issues. They only care about the glorified flu, the one issue we face that has actual historical precedent.

True, WSJ, NYT, CNN, BBC, Global Times, Twitter, Facebook, etc has made more people sick in absolute terms than at any other point in history.

experts say

The mark of the lying media attempting to whitewash what it wants to impose on the population.

That said, given modern obesity rates it would not surprise me if we are way unhealthier.

Same thing I was thinking. Add to that the concept of “fat shaming” because pointing out unhealthy habits is offensive

The world is living through a unique moment: In the past five or six weeks, the Omicron coronavirus variant has likely gotten more people sick mentally ill than any similar period since the 1917-18 flu pandemic, according to global health experts.

Fixed it for them.

So more people have had a cold at the same in the past few weeks than in the last 100 years? Personally I'd check that pretty carefully, as in the past this might have been noted at the time but it wouldn't have been memorable global news. But even if it's true... uh, so what? The worst result is short-term rolling disruptions of business.... much less disruption than COVID lockdowns caused.

Uh, no shit? Have you looked at the shape of people lately? The physical shape. It's all wrong.

Considering what the internet has done to people in the short time it's been widely available to the general public... I have to agree.
