in other words, this suffering is manmade, from the top all the way to the bottom. there's no need for a conspiracy theory or wondering abt the wuhan lab, which feel like intentional distractions at this point, when the answers are right in front of us.— Wendi Muse (@MuseWendi) May 29, 2021
the people who should be shot are in the presidential administrations & state governorships.... the people rubber stamping their decisions on pain of firing are just cowards
And if those cowards don't face consequences, what encouragement do they have to ever stand up to the state and federal officials actively encouraging people to downplay the pandemic? If nearly 600k dead due to their cowardice carries no price and protects their pension, then why would they do their jobs better next time? The legal, moral, and professional bar is now set at their COVID response and all of those cowards are going to be in higher positions when the next pandemic comes for you. They'll just be cowards we enabled.
Pain of firing versus pain of X hundred thousand people drowning in their own blood. Tell me which is more painful and I'll tell you if you're wrong.
your expectation is that a gaggle of fed & state employees would throw away job security, pensions, benefits, etc. and get blacklisted from government employment for no material effect. don't get me wrong, i'd respect them a fucking lot and if they were really loud about it they might've shifted public opinion a bit, but they weren't going to save lives.
in the revolution we'll make no excuses for the terror but i don't feel like punishing the structurally powerless and craven while the rotten edifice still stands
