It's actually mainly anti-vaxxers blaming the vaccines for it

      As long as the virus only hurts poor people, children and the elderly, Porky don't give a shit.

        Shit. As long as they don't have to watch it happening directly they'll even let it hurt their own. Real Masque of the Red Death hours going on.

          This is something of a conspiracy theory, but personally I think a lot of what's going on is most members of the ruling class truly believe in overpopulation/Malthusianism and aren't just happy to watch working people die, but actively encourage it.

            but this time they include white people as d*g*n*r*t*s as well so it's not racist!

              Yeah but by then it will be (is?) totally out of control, Sorceror's Apprentice style. Too late to change policy.

            Oh, no! I totally agree! Just because malthusian overpopulation is bullshit doesn't mean these rich dumb fucks don't believe in it and express it like all their other shared class interests. I think a lot of the blue-maga libs agree with it as well; They're clapping themselves on the back for not being red-maga anti-vaxxers while the Red Masqued, Long Covid walks through their vaccinated castle.

              100%. None of these billionaires actually strike me as particularly well educated about demographics, and belief in overpopulation is incredibly normalized in our society -- which I don't think is an accident. I've had lots of arguments with libs and even genuinely leftist people about how overpopulation isn't a problem, overconsumption is. I believe that all human life has value, and that the environment is primarily being destroyed by and for rich people and their militaries. I think if we get rid of that shit and build a rational agricultural system we can easily live comfortably with this many people, in balance with nature (which I also think is a lot more capable of springing back than many people think).
