And were you told that by the same people who told you Trump was a Russian spy? By the same people who told you the election was free and fair? That they were not spying on Americans? That if a boy cops off his penis he’s a girl? That women are fine to use as infantry? That despite doubling prices there is no inflation?

Using government numbers to disprove that this is a government religion shows that you missed the entire point.

So we can't believe anything unless we read it on Free Republic, and certainly not government statistics? GTFOH. The data is in, you were wrong then, you're wrong now. Every state is not involved in some conspiracy to inflate Covid deaths. That is nucking futs. You're the gaslighting zealot in this argument.

You have no business accusing anyone else of engaging in zealotry about Covid.

There has to be some basis or anchor point. And we have lists of dead, and not a lot of examples of people that don’t exist being recorded as dying or the living reported dead, so the total numbers are essentially correct.

If not, your argument reduces to there being no point in having a discussion since everyone is free to make up their own numbers with no possibility of dispute, as there is no basis for any numbers.
