Never forget that the @FDA didn't allow COVID testing for the first several weeks of the epidemic in the US, and then blamed you for the resulting uncontrollable outbreak.
The countries that have fared the best were the ones that had widespread testing and containment of positive cases in the opening weeks.
Here, we had American companies making COVID test kits, and having to sell them all overseas, because they weren't allowed to be used here.
And when they did finally allow testing, many states shoved the COVID patients in nursing homes, where the residents where exponentially more likely to die than most of us.
That's why the fatality rate was so high early on.
The government cycle of fraud:
1. Fail to protect us.
2. Make the crisis worse through ineptitude & malice.
3. Blame us for the ensuing carnage.
4. Introduce punitive measures against us to "fix" their problem.
5. Rob us & give it to crony billionaires.
5. Return to step 1.

6 things for you to remember on this Holocaust Remembrance Day:
1. Power allows bad people to be monsters. Hitler on a cul-de-sac is a jerk that ends up getting shot for trespassing. Hitler in government sparks a genocide and plunges the world into war, killing 100s of millions.
2. A disarmed people are a vulnerable people. The first move any oppressor makes before victimizing his target is to rob them of the ability to fight back.
FUN FACT: Hitler didn't pass gun control. He targeted Jews using gun control laws that were passed by the Weimar Republic.
3. The infrastructure they use to oppress others will eventually be used against you.
Many of the concentration camps that were used during the holocaust were built decades prior to hold "enemy civilians" (refugees).
Turns out you can put anyone in a cage once it's built.
Biden's order directing DOJ to stop renewing private prison contracts just means they're putting the prisoners in government-run prisons.
No one's being set free. The cage is just being changed.
And it doesn't even apply to the privately-run border camps because those are DHS contracts, even though those were the ones with the biggest problems.
For those who wonder if this somehow reduces lobbying for higher prison populations, three of the biggest lobbying groups in the prison industrial complex are corrections officer unions, prison construction firms, and prison labor contractors.
In order to not get banned from social media, I'm not going to say what I think is an appropriate punishment for someone who leaks their own children's nude photos on the internet.
