Way too many Americans are too fucking stupid and arrogant to make any prophylactic work.

NONE!

We live in a society with a large population of idiots, and they are determined to have their way, to hell with their grandparents.

I swear, if we had a pandemic similar to what Stephen King wrote about in “The Stand”, where 95% of the population dies, a significant number of the people left over would STILL claim it was a hoax

Americans are the fucking dumbest people in the world.
