Be that as it may, deaths from Covid are definitely real, and they can be pretty fucking horrible. Ask me how I know.
The real problem with this situation, is that you have a conflict, between people who don't realize that everyone is going to die someday (on one side), and a bunch of oppositionally defiant jackwagons (on the other), who are basically having a fight with each other, because they wouldn't want to ever agree on anything. EVER. God forbid that Jesus and Karl Marx had an intersectional moment.
As somebody who knows people who have had, and died from, Covid, I cringe when I see people regurgitating conspiracy as some sort of intuitive truth. Because honestly, this is the nature of the problem. We didn't hear about Covid first from doctors. We heard about it from FUCKING POLITICIANS. So guess what? That means it's not a medical issue.
If I'm being perfectly honest, I was really getting my hopes up that this shit was gonna be a proper fucking plague. Because the levels of dangerous stupidity are SO high in the world - on all sides - that the world would have been a thousand percent better, if there had been a pile of burning bodies, and a return to survival of the fittest.
I can listen to jokes, slander, and whatever else about liberals and leftists all day long. It's all good. But at some point you all are gonna have to realize that you have some ginormous dipshits amongst your own ranks. Not everyone can claim all the smart people. Ya know? Most of us don't have a fucking clue what we're talking about, the majority of the time. You couldn't make a single nuanced argument about anything. NOTHING. And guess what? I'm in the same boat. So if I can recognize it about myself, I can sure as shit see it in other people, who are even less mentally capable than myself.
And no, I don't know that Covid deaths are inflated. I can assume, presume, induce, or just plain old make it up. But again, the problem is that I don't know, and neither does anyone else. And that's a problem because it's fucking obvious why it's a problem. Until we all learn to think with our brains, and not our politics, these issues will only be amplified...
