It’s just the flu, bro.

Today is the one year anniversary of “It’s just the flu, bro”. Let’s summarize all of the important ways that we were right over the past year: 1.the Coronavirus is approximately the same in terms, of lethality, as the flu. 2.the government shouldn’t strip away liberties in order to make people be/feel safe from germs 3.kids aren’t affected by coronavirus (don’t discuss extremely rare exceptions as that would be stupid) 4.vitamin D and zinc will boost your immune system and provide some level of protection against coronavirus, or any virus 5.each person is responsible for their own immune system - it is not a government function 6.mask wearing did very little to help anybody 7.the CDC is full of crap 8.Fauci is full of crap 9.if we aren’t vigilant in opposing this tyranny now there will be long term reductions in our liberty due to medical socialism/tyranny 10.those who profit from Coronavirus do not want this to end (vaccine manufacturers, politicians who like tyranny, contact tracing companies, etc.)

There were many other ways that we Flubros were right, too numerous to mention here. But we should remember that we have been the voices of reason who helped our fellow Freepers from getting seduced by those who would strip liberties from us.

If we just wait for 2 weeks we’ll stop the flu in its tracks bro... This makes us safe.

Did we warn them? Yes we did. Did they listen? No. In fact they’re more terrified than ever.

"1.the Coronavirus is approximately the same in terms, of lethality, as the flu."

No, it is NOT. I've posted the actual statistics multiple times. The most severe modern flu on record killed 60,000 people. Most years were around 30,000.

C19 isn’t the flu, it’s a biological attack on the United States by communist China.

Masks have become just another idiotic “fashion statement”. If you want to be accepted by so-called “society” and not kicked out of the herd, you must wear one. Reminds me a lot of the Y2K hysteria, the Mayan Calendar 12/21/12 hysteria, and every other mania to grip a country that worships whatever the “in thing” of the moment is.

As I said in another thread a while back, I can’t medically wear a mask due to a lifelong breathing disorder. But after the way I was treated when trying to make an in-person payment on my Pikepass, I would refuse to wear one even if I could do so.

Unbelievable that a lot of people don’t even want to hear what their precious, all-knowing CDC said about 96 PERCENT of so-called “Covid deaths” were in people with 2 or more pre-existing conditions or co-morbidities. They ignore that info. Or, they grudgingly acknowledge it with a “Yeah, but ...”

There’s just no helping those people. OK< rant over. :-)

Happy one year anniversary. It has been a good place to exchange ideas. May we not need a second anniversary but remain vigilant to those who would seek to steal our liberties.

"11.there is a difference between dying with Coronavirus and from Coronavirus"

So show me the accurate statistics that PROVE otherwise, and not rumourous fantasies.

1.the Coronavirus is approximately the same in terms, of lethality, as the flu

thats complete and utter nonsense.

550 thousand dead in 1 year.

Thats at least 10 times the fatality rate of the Flu.

Spanish flu killed far more, with those killed being younger, and we didn’t shut down over it.

550,000 of this year’s dead have been labeled COVID, whether the actual primary cause of death was cancer or gunshot wounds.

I’m with you on the idiocy of making masks a fashion accessory. On the few occasions I wear a mask, I use a disposable one, and then DISPOSE of it.

What’s worse than that is the implication (i.e. mask-shaming) that you don’t CAAAAARE about others if you don’t wear a mask.

“Thats at least 10 times the fatality rate of the Flu.”

10x flu = flu + 9×flu (caused by lockdowns, obesity, medical errors, shark attacks, denial of cv19 therapeutics, heart attacks, suicide)

(...)

That the FDA lists Mercola.com on its fraudulent COVID-19 products page as well the Center For Science In The Public Interest issues a veiled threat to remove Mercola’s STopCOVIDCold.com website where free scientific reports that detail the benefits of vitamins in protecting against all viral infections are posted, represents egregious and unjustified violations of the First Amendment.

There IS current scientific literature that conclusively asserts certain vitamins and minerals, namely vitamin D, zinc, vitamin C, vitamin A, selenium, are beneficial in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 and that such information is covered by the first amendment of free speech that Dr. Mercola accurately cites.

First, those numbers are bogus and pushed by our communist overlords.

Second, life years impacted, is much more important to me than total numbers of deaths. With median death of COVID higher than the median life expectancy, this is basically a flu. The death of someone that would have died within a few months anyway, is not anywhere close to the death of a 17 year old for example.
