The capitalist class has already conditioned people to be traumatized by the idea of pandemic prevention methods by their handling of COVID

This new bird flu will not be contained and will be allowed to spread unchecked. It can be spread by the pigeons on your street, and the poorly prepared fast food chicken slop treats that capitalist countries love.

And COVID is still here killing people.

This is going to be the new normal for a capitalism dominated world. As the environment crumbles we are going to see pandemic after pandemic as animal populations succumb the the stress of environmental degradation and new diseases emerge.

And with each new variant of disease our bodies are left damaged and more susceptible.

Disease compounding on top of disease.

Welcome to your capitalist utopia.

      of course i care about both things, but if you want to be doing doomposting i see no reason to limit yourself to the little doom in front of you when the largest possible doom is right around the corner. certainly isn't like climate change is going to make pandemics less likely
