It may be delusional but By the time the majority reaches ‘herd immunity’ how many millions will have dies and who will bear the brunt of those deaths?
Still think my choice of words was pure hyperbole?
Your point could have been made differently. It's irresponsible hyperbole. You just can't be bothered to consider that your comment was insensitive to others. Now, you're doubling down. So be it. But please spare the complaints when others take a similar tack.
My people have been herded and cooked.
Holocaust it was.
This is trump’s so far smaller Holocaust.
My people ran the African slave transport through São Tomé for Portugal.
Your people aren't the point.
Little Larry fucked up. He knows it. He just can't admit it. That's his M.O.
So he conflated his comments and you bought the spin. This is a pandemic, and an act of nature. It was wrongly addressed from the beginning, and politics played a major role in the indifference that came from this administration. But they've showed no concern for anyone in this country. Not blacks, or white, or Latino, or anyone at all. but that is far different than singling out an entire group of human beings to systematically destroy.
And you should grasp that.
Unless you choose to be as ignorant as your "people".
So fuck Larry.
Your point (before this latest spurt of bile) critical of Larry’s use of “holocaust” to describe trump’s Covid approach was that it was insensitive to others. You used “others” either in relation to holocaust perpetrators or to holocaust victims. I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming your “others” are the victims and their relations.
Trump knew in February that Covid would kill potentially hundreds of thousands. He knew then it would likely spread everywhere adequate precautions weren’t taken. Keep the fact that he, his administration, and his task force had this information since February and look at communication and allocation decisions that followed. It was a concerted effort to spread, death, disability, despair, and destruction among the administration’s many political enemies in cities and states that understand the rule of law.
Unleashing deadly destruction targeted, to the best of one’s ability, on the ruling power’s scapegoat or internal opposition is launching a holocaust. It doesn’t have to take the crown for single biggest holocaust in history or even going on at the present moment to qualify.
Trump has replaced Jews Gypsies Gays and Quakers with everyone who isn’t nice to trump, but he’s being true to his lineage, turning whatever power he has attained into a growing g pile of the corpses of his perceived foes.
