As a Texas resident - I am ashamed to call myself a Texan anymore - we're captive of the stupidest among us. @GregAbbott_TX is rescinding mask/crowd orders put in place when the daily infection rate was lower than now. We're at about same level of infections as at the first...1
...huge explosion of cases in the summer. The infection now will spread, right when the more infectious variant is climbing. Why do we have to keep being threatened by GQP's insistence on doing what they want, no matter the price in lives, @GregAbbott_TX? Why do the ones who...2
...care about 500,000 deaths that didn't have to happen, who don't want to be part of the problem by risking lives of other people by ignoring common sense science, who dont want to cripple hospitals, who dont want to get sick, take 2nd place to the selfish and ignorant...3
...who whine about wearing masks and want to get a drink in a bar? I know you're a mass murderer, @GregAbbott_TX. I know you had a report on your desk in May telling you how to reopen the state safely, and that your contributors wanted to go fast, so you threw out the report...4
...and fired the people involved. You murdered huge numbers in July/August through your incompetence, @GregAbbott_TX. You murdered even more a few weeks ago because you also kowtowed to contributors and left the power system open to collapse to save them money. Now, one very...5

...important thing: Does anyone wonder *why* there are so many variants? It is because so many countires - including ours - are incompetent. We have the British, the South African, the Brazillian and now the California variants. Soon, I am sure, we will see the Indian variant...6
...the reason they are variants is from viral replication. Like a giant game of telephone, the more infections, the bigger the spread, the more times the virus reproduces itself, which results in tiny changes that then become variants. We are now at the WORST time to relax....7
...we have a *partial* immunization going on. We are months from full. Vaccines are not perfect. Some viruses can get by them. And then the ones that do, when replicated, are stronger in resisting the vaccine (it's evolution through natural selection, on a viral timeline.)....8
...but of course, that's science, not "YEEEHHAAWW!!! MASKS KILL!!! Q IS GOP!!! THE MOON LANDING WAS FAKE!!" mindset that is killing us all. We are going to get variant after variant; some will be worse, some will die out quickly. We are playing Russian roulette by relaxing now..9
...maybe we won't get hit by the bullet. Maybe the Texas variant that could easily be coming now won't be vaccine resistant. But maybe it will. Or maybe it will come from some other "YEEEHAWW!! MOON LANDING!" state. But if we do get a Texas variant in the coming weeks...10
...no matter if it is nothing, or more infectious, or vaccine resistant, let's not call it the Texas variant. It's the Greg Abbott variant. Because @GregAbbott_TX is a moron who doesnt understand what he's doing, & is willing to kill us all to make his bizness buddies happy.
