Vanity: HELP ME PLEASE!!

Posted on 10/18/2020 12:52:49 PM PDT by RevelationDavid

I need your input....!!

It remains a mystery to me… Why are we allowing this to happen! I ask all of you to help me understand this… Here is the simple number…

The United States of America has approximately 330 million people.

As of this date, there have been approximately 230,000 deaths having to do with anything COVID-19 related.

The CDC says that only approximately 7% of these people who unfortunately died… Actually died "FROM" COVID-19. The remainder of the people who have died have died "WITH" COVID-19. Be that what it may… Let's just do the numbers.

Let's divide 230,000 by 330,000,000… Let's do it together.

Unless I have a calculator that does not work properly… The answer to that division problem is

00.00069

I wish I had a meme of Elmer Fudd coming out sayin "that's all folks"

And so my question is this… Why in the hell are we sitting by and allowing this con job to continue!

If you are bending the knee and wearing a mask and putting up with this nonsense explain to me why?

You are more at risk of dying in a car accident… Have you stopped driving?

Wake the hell up… Refuse to comply. Be willing to suffer the consequences. BE Americans… And not surrender to edicts and mandates!!!

I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA AND I REFUSE TO PLAY THE GAME.

Because today they would have asked me to leave church services. Don’t want to cause a scene. I don’t know, what do we do next? They’ve brainwashed everyone.

Well, you are right. Simpler math just tells us that over 99 percent of those who contract this survive. And the less than 1 percent are often dear people who were vulnerable to the next opportunistic infection no matter what it was.

I expressed a similar opinion at my dentist recently and they looked at me like I was from Mars. A lot of medical people have been brainwashed, it seems. In most cases it appears only a light rinse was necessary.

And... the CDC says that over 85% of people who contract the covid wear masks. So why make us wear them?

The way the cause of death count works is if you are hit by a bus while you are infected with covid, it looks like this

Covid -1 Bus- 0

I don’t. Because I go to delis and other places late when they don’t enforce it and I work from home for the most part.

But instead of blowing gas, why don’t you walk into a place where you must wear a mask and REFUSE to take it off.

Another online tough guy.

And I’ll do it if you pay my fine.

I’m not b.tch.

But i’m not an idiot either and I don’t need unnecessary bills.

We have BOTH chosen to live where we live, CA and NY

Move or stop crying

“Why in the hell are we sitting by and allowing this con job to continue?”

It is the condition of the oppressed. The virus is one of several unfathomable atrocities being visited upon us, any one of which is hell.

What to do: Remember not to confuse the righteous hatred of evil with the evil hatred of righteousness. Hate your enemy all day every day.

Understand bad is bad. The frustration you feel now is imposed on you, it’s part of the totalitarian push. Part and parcel, though, is the motivation to act.

Think in terms of I, not we.

You don’t do it by the entire population for a denominator, you have to use the exposed population which is hard to come up with.

You have serological testing that you can use in tandem with statistical estimates. These have wide error bars though.

When you take the median of the estimates, you come up with something that looks identical to the seasonal flu.

In our county they don’t ticket/fine the maskless person, the health department threatens to shut down the business where the “violation” occurred. They’ve only done it once that hit the news, but it’s a pretty big stick.

As much as some of these businesses are struggling I don’t want to make life harder for them.

Since you asked, I will play the devil’s advocate and answer your question as a pro-masker would.

Yes, the number of virus deaths is relatively low in relation to the total population. But that number is low only because people are wearing masks and social distancing.

So that relatively low number actually proves that masks work.

(Don’t yell at me. I’m just telling you what a pro-masker would say.)

"You are more at risk of dying in a car accident… Have you stopped driving?"

So you seem to like math. First, do your division for Covid: "Let's divide 230,000 by 330,000,000"

Now look up car fatality numbers. Let's divide 36,000 by 330,000. Do you still think you are more at risk of dying in a car accident?

Do you "bend the knee" and wear a seatbelt, even though it Covid is 6x the fatality rate as driving? Maybe wearing a seatbelt is a rational precaution, even though driving isn't that dangerous compared to covid? Like wearing a mask? A cheap, easy, minor, courteous precaution for something > 6x more dangerous?

BTW, we still have ~4 months before get a full year's worth Covid numbers, so the comparison is going to be even worse. Probably 10x traffic fatalities.

I know you don't believe the numbers so why do math anyway. But I challenge you to look at the excess fatalities for 2020, even if Covid deaths aren't actually over 200k, it is close.

Covid has become, above all, a political issue.

And those in power in Government, in finance, in the deep state use their vast power over media, big business, and bureaucracy to push their narrative.

Its not easy to resist.
