111. why are you lecturing me about the virus?
Thu Oct 1, 2020, 10:56 PM
Oct 2020

...you're not alone in understanding the effects of the virus.

I didn't give it to them, I didn't infect any of the people you're trying to shame me with. I have my own ordeals I'm living through and you don't have wit enough to understand that you can't lecture someone you know absolutely nothing about.

Coming on this board and presuming to tell someone how to respond to the madness surrounding us is the height of arrogance. And look Gus Bob, no one is celebrating anything, so enough with the personal insults. We all watched this WH, everyone in it, not only deny this virus, but actively encourage, and in many cases force Americans to congregate together without necessary protections; in schools; in meat plants; in their ignorant rallies.

And now they're finally facing the hurt you want to shame ME with. What a crock. This isn't my wish. It's not my pleasure, and you have no goddamn grounds to claim otherwise, but here you are...

Why don't you give it a rest. I'm perfectly comfortable watching and affirming what we've been screaming at the WH for months, that they are not immune just because they act like jackasses. THAT"S what's going on in this thread. Not a thing I can do but watch, and for goddamn sure I'm going to talk about it. I'm not going to shrivel up in some sympathetic ball of shame at pointing out their hypocrisy which I have absolutely no control over.

After months of gaslighting and criminal negligence from that bunch I'd like to shout this from the high heavens. Everybody should be gawking at this, if they have any goddamn life left in them.
