Six Digits of Death

Well, it's finally happened, over one hundred thousand Americans have died from COVID-19. This is the official death toll, though I believe that it is a low-ball figure, and that to get a truer number, researchers will have to piece together a narrative by looking at abnormally high pneumonia deaths. If the United States ever returns to a normal state of governance, a Truth and Reconciliation Committee will be needed to figure out just how deep the rot goes in our society.

I don't have anything more substantial to say on the topic at this time... this is a quick post, hastily written after a long phone conversation with Mom, who just returned from a visit to my brother Gomez' family. The title, of course, is a play on the Shaw Brothers wuxia classic.

Those deaths sit lightly on the shoulders of their killer, I note.

I think the only way this could have been handled worse would have been if every American had been personally injected with live virus by presidential decree. And you know that would have happened if Trump could have won a single extra vote by doing so.

So much loss. Such a waste.

Our corporate overlords don't care about you or me, they never did. They want us dead. We live in a country, run by evil humans, that has been killing millions of people around the planet since the end of WWII and now they have turned on their own population. This is what happens when people vote for the lesser evil, you still get evil. Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi are the current evil humans that want you dead and they are your enemies.

He's an utter sociopath, probably a psychopath at this stage of his life.

I think it's more a combination of incompetence, greed, and callousness rather than active bloodlust.
