I lost an uncle and a grandmother to COVID. My heart goes out to all those with loved ones dying from this and all causes.
I’m fine with some rules about basic hygiene and common sense. The ioc doesn’t have those. Why? I’m not some wild antivaxxer out here spouting shit. I’m in here defending this Olympian who did nothing wrong in my opinion.
And as I understand it, yall will just call me names like fascist and plague rat and told to fuck off - Because I simply feel even the slightest differently and have chosen to question this Olympian being under fire.
It's all about "follow the science" until it doesn't align with their opinion. WHO actions are sometimes questionable and the intentions are not always quite clear, but it's the same source of information that was used before, when covid was all around.
"My heart goes out to the people who have had family members die, but I'm going to call people who want to do something about it extremists"
Please kindly fuck off
Dont mistake my realism with lack of compassion.
What you're doing isn't realism, dipshit, it's denialism.
No one is forcing you to act this way. Your lack of compassion is evident in your inability or lack of desire to criticize those guidelines which directly result in the death and disablement of thousand a month
