I’m just gonna leave this here. Unbelievable
He isnt even left. He didnt support Bernie.
sorry you have no idea what left/right is. The window has shifted so much that MSM dems are essentially 90's republicans who dont hate gays and minorities.Lol.
Bernie Bros are the worst.

I’m guessing when we’re all said and done we finish with over 500,000 deaths. One million is a definite possibility.
You obviously didn't suggest that I look there until a separate post that you sent later, and I'm not doing homework that you assign anyway. I think it's meaningless that you ask me to search out some random and anonymous dope who makes a dumb statement. Your original post that I responded to implied that right-to-lifers were now callously suggesting that old people's lives have no value. Your claim remains unsubstantiated. Your quote was made up, just as I had suspected.
Is there a difference between loss of life as the intended (and actively pursued) consequence vs. loss of life as a recognized risk? My assumption is that your argument is that they are the same. If so, it makes for the automobile accident fatalities as a calculated risk the same scenario, if we’re assuming equivalence of the first two.Anyone who is advocating for stopping lockdowns or shutdowns or social distancing for economic reasons is saying that they will trade lives for prosperity.
I’m not even arguing that this is wrong.
Im just saying that people who profess to be pro life cannot make this argument without moral difficulties.

Would you grant that one could believe loss of life as the sole intended consequence is different than loss of life as a result of elevated risk factors? Would pro-lifers be inconsistent in belief by opposing the loss of life via abortion while also voting for raising the speed limit on the highway? [not arguing scale here, just principle]Nah, I’m just pointing out hypocrisy of people who say there is no price worth paying for a human life advocating for a policy that will surely lead to many deaths. My morals see the ambiguity that you rightly point out.

I sent you 3 examples. Took me ~5 minutes. Look around the internet for more.Your claim remains unsubstantiated.
It's so fitting that there is a typo in your answer.Supporting Joe Biden isn't left. It's right. Your just mad he isn't a far right idiot like you.
Not true. It is literally impossible to know where any set of actions other than the ones we actually take would lead, but it is not at all impossible to believe that if we would have instead used a fraction of the stimulus package money in order to fully quarantine the most vulnerable portions of our population, while simultaneously keeping the economy running, that we wouldn't have ultimately achieved a better outcome. Remember, corona is not the only thing that kills. Poverty is a killer too, and if we decide to cut the legs out from under our economy for an extended period of time we are going to experience a ton of that.Anyone who is advocating for stopping lockdowns or shutdowns or social distancing for economic reasons is saying that they will trade lives for prosperity.

Also, BTW, like most Dems, Thriller wasn't actually a Biden supporter. The entire Democratic party just got drunk in Vegas one night. Soon they are going to wake up and be horrified to realize that they accidentally got married to a senile candidate who literally personifies everything they'd been previously claiming that they did not want.Supporting Joe Biden isn't left. It's right. Your just mad he isn't a far right idiot like you.
