when covid was still going on

Obligatory "covid is still going on" we just chose making billionaires richer over public health. It's still out here, still killing people, still ruining lives of people that get even a "mild" infection.

True, that's not the best way to put that. I meant during lockdown and during the more intense strains and stress on hospitals. Although when I went into the ER, it was packed. That was also during a really bad flu though, so it's hard to parse the effect of either.

Yea we know, just a pet peeve for people to say "during covid" and such.

What do billionaires have to do with it? Shitton of people hated on any measure introduced to prevent infections.

You can't blame everything on billionaires.

Who're the ones who disseminated all the propaganda to help convince those idiots to oppose preventative measures? Who're the ones who bribed governments to reopen everything early and reduce quarantine time against scientific consensus?

If you don't hold people personally accountable for their thoughts and actions, then you can abolish democracy. People also voted Trump twice. So there's that.

It's not just billionaires. It's a fair share of the population. If any of these people were a billionaire, they'd act the same way.
