With a million new COVID cases per day in the US, Democrats celebrate their “victory” over COVID at their massive indoor superspreader event with zero mitigations
It also sounds nice for sensational headlines with bullshit undertones.
Enjoy that.
Look at OP’s post history - that’s par for the course
What parts of it are bullshit or sensational? I’m thoroughly convinced you’re a paid actor who stans for the Democrats online

He’d get applauded for only saying thousands.
Heck, I’ll clap if they say a few dozen.
Wow, both of you are accusing each other of being paid actors.
Why don’t you try having a civil conversation instead of the personal attacks?
Thats ridiculous coming from you, you’re one of the most offensive people on here lol
I’ve had less then 50 out of the 7400 comments I’ve made removed.
That’s less than a percent of them so I can’t be that offensive.
Having a comment removed is not a good measure. I have comments removed, accounts banned, all the time. But it’s usually because I’m advocating for the death of billionaires, and apparently that’s a bad thing 🤷♂️
I’m still on my original account and I only had one for Reddit too.
Lol you’re so cringe
I work in the private sector now, making textbooks for kids
Say it.
Lol this is so cringe 😆😆😆 Like, you think I’m Chinese, or possibly an agent of the CCP, and so therefore, all arguments against killing children in Gaza are somehow null and void. Literally everything I’ve ever said about my personal life on this user account could be a lie! What then!?
And what if Donald Trump said killing children in Gaza is morally unacceptable. Would he also be wrong!?
Let’s not forget what we are actually talking about: YOU THINK THE US GOVERNMENT’S COMPLICITY IN KILLING GAZAN CHILDREN IS JUSTIFIABLE AND OK and that people like me, who disagree with it, should shut up and vote for the people who have idly stood by and let it happen
Why don’t you just say it?
Because they pretty much admitted to working for the Chinese government by saying they NOW work in the private sector, suggesting they once did not.
My bet is, side gig working from home to pick up extra cash in the evening.
Because I don’t do what strange people tell me to do on the internet. I’m insane enough to argue with strangers on the internet but I’m not an idiot. It’s all your game to deflect from the fact that YOU THINK KILLING GAZAN CHILDREN WITH US-PROVIDED WEAPONS IS OK AS LONG AS IT’S DONE BY A DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION
Haha, look everyone, they failed the test!
Cringey post, cringey comment. Echo chamber vibes from you
Take a gander at OP’s post history
Many that went to the DNC have shared on social media that they tested positive for COVID in the last few days. It’s not cringe. COVID is surging higher than the last 2 summers.
Edit: here’s where I live in Los Angeles…
COVID now isn’t what COVID was during the initial outbreak. Current mutations are significantly less lethal. Between the vaccines and the fact that almost everyone has had it at least once by now, we are far more prepared to handle it. It’s still something that should be taken seriously, but it’s also well into the endemic phase. This is the steady state where humanity will have to coexist with COVID indefinitely, not the pandemic where talking about “super spreader events” is reasonable.
The latest strain is taking people longer to recover from than the previous strains. My co-worker who has had COVID twice before said this was the worst one he’s experienced. “Felt like I got run over by a truck multiple times”.
Free at-home COVID testing program restarting as officials prepare for fall, winter season Officials said the website to order tests will come back online in September.
What’s cringe about the story?
Pot kettle black.

YoU dOn’T sAy!
Garbage article that cites twitter. Def worth the click.
The DNC’s surprise guest was COVID.
A thread… https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1827721797304832470.html
Not surprising to me. Politicians everywhere want COVID to be over, but it isn’t.
The pandemic is over. Now it’s endemic, significantly less lethal, and our own immune systems are better prepared. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t take it seriously, but it’s not the same situation we faced in 2020.
Unfortunately most of the world isn’t even taking it seriously anymore. People treat it like it’s a mild flu or common cold.
The virus is still producing waves of infection consistent with the pandemic phase of spread rather than the endemic phase and has not moved into a seasonal pattern like the flu or colds. It’s just not publicised in the media. Scientific studies show that Omicron was just as lethal as the original Wuhan strain and the current Omicron subvariants are similar - the virus has not actually gotten less severe as hoped (and in the case of Delta, it actually got more severe; thankfully that lineage did not give rise to the variants we now face).
The only difference between 2020 and now is that we have vaccines, but people need to keep up to date with the boosters. The efficacy of vaccines to prevent severe illness and hospitalisation wanes quickly, with a recent study showing it can be as low as 50% after four months.
We also know that the risk of long COVID is cumulative - i.e. it goes up with each infection and the increase in likelihood depends on whether you’re up-to-date with the vaccine (having the most recent booster roughly halves the increase in risk from an infection). A recent study estimated that 400 million people now suffer from long COVID at an annual cost of $1 trillion to the global economy. This will only continue to get worse if people continue to catch COVID every year or two.
