At some point social media is going to be a dead space of people's worst confessions, forgotten in time and completely unrecoverable.

WCVB is Boston so THESE ARE MASSHOLES?!
Woolencadavers
Well this is fine. But if they get sick and they're unvaccinated they shouldn't be allowed into a building full of sick people.
playingthedevilsadvocate
Now that theres a vaccine i dont give a flying fuck if people who don’t want to take it don’t. Means the stupid die off. Whats the problem?
attagirl
I made the mistake of commenting on a thread like that and ended up with hundreds of idiots using the term "sheeple" un-ironically
It takes a lot of self control to not make a comment
SciNZ
I’m old enough to remember when people thought Facebook making you use your real name would cut down on people saying stupid shit for /1
fear of public embarrassment or repercussions for trolling. That was a nice idea.

Basically, man is trash and every online social media site we've ever created only serves to make us act trashier, selfish, & more entitled.

Tammy Troy is an idiot.

I work with people like this. It's just... Ugh. Fucking morons.

That’s it’s own pandemic.
Barkinsons
I'm still debating whether social media creates more morons or if we just weren't aware of them before, but I tend to the former
siilverbolt3
Mmm idk, a guy who called me homophobic slurs in highschool messaged me DIRECTLY with an MLM opportunity. So...social media is pretty cool..
allihearisnoise
It just makes it more obvious who is a sociopath anyway. Don't blame the tool, blame the people.

I heard this during the early MySpace days: “People hide behind a computer for a reason.” I find it pretty spot on still.
SpiceSlag
I miss the almost wholly anonymous days of the internet, I mean it was a wasteland but we didn't have these assholes on it

Curious. What would you call the disease?
Societal decay

Them physically, but the rest of us mentally. These people are so emotionally draining that it’s so hard to be positive about humanity.

Thin the herd.

That's weird, only one part of the herd is thinning...
Bigemedic
Anyone too stupid or stubborn to get the vax, we can do without. Protect the young, the old and the immune compromised, and to hell with ‘em
samjamspaceman
Thanks a way to bring down housing prices, right?
KatLuvr54
They do realize that they’re now part of the herd that’s being thinned, right? You could look at is as being beneficial to the Democrats.
Fewer republicans at the polls.
dragonslaver
Was it thin the herd or cull the herd that was repeated in far cry 5 all the time?
CameForNatalieDormer
It's so easy for them to be callous edgy cool dudes until it's their family. Or them.
IveGotRedOnMe
Fuck me do I love reading those articles tho. Oh no, one less goatee :'(
LeifTheUnlucky
I'm loving the affordable F250 listings everytime another one bites the dust.
Qualtagh
Fuck that. Their deaths won't make us smarter, just more callous to death. We're not gonna evolve to be smarter at this stage of our species
ShaneEngland
Though could we evolve better immunity to the flu, similarly to the aftermath of the black plague?
DoctorInsensitiveAssHole
Evolution never stops.
BdotRASS
Seemingly it does, wherever it encounters a church.
Inbreeding is what gives us new species. In this case, the luddite.
DeimosBarret
They are. Just not who they thought would thin. Idiots are taking themselves out
DarkZalgo
And also mutating the virus harming everyone else.
Narfwak
I feel like I'm going crazy, I was saying this over a year ago when people tried to say herd immunity without a vaccine was even a thing
DCNR
I agree that they should not occupy a hospital bed.
Fwiw, this is what they were commenting on. /a/Y1S4mS1

The US average lifespan fell from last year till now, something that hasn't happened since WWII... You can't ignore this and say it's fine.

This is saddening, yet not surprising. The most depressing part is how stupid and selfish these people are.

I see this shit all the time because I live in Utah and people are getting sick and dying here like crazy. Not TX and Fl numbers but still..

my uncle got long COVID in 2021… in march 2022 he went into hospital for a head injury, he died of a blood clot while waiting for a CT
limbodog
These idiots are in Boston?
Fauxcused
you know I almost wouldn't mind these stupid bastards getting sick if they weren't filling up hospital beds that reasonable people need
mksu
They shouldn't be. Dump anti-vaxxers in the gutter to die to free up medical resources for people who might be worth a damn.
ArsenalThePhoenix

This is so depressing.
DrFunkenstein57
It's not depressing. It's aggravating. It depressed me a year ago. Now, I'm just tired of them. All of them. Over it...
zalurker
This. I'm done.
Life feels weird right now. It feels hard to be positive when there are so many people who want to drag us backwards and spread bullshit.
Willowknowsall
It really is, guys at my work are always like where'd you hear that where do you get your news? CNN? Anything they don't like is fake

Whatever you do, don't go to the Youtube comments of any Covid related news story

Most of these groups are closed groups, basicly echo chambers, where people only circlejerk the same bs.

Been thinking of leaving Facebook lately as they let these people rampant to comment. The. You call them dumb and get a slap and not them.

Just a reminder that even vaccinated you should wear a mask. It’s for catching droplets at the source and you can still carry Covid.
Yessir there was maybe a period of a week that I left it off. But now it's back one since the Ptown outbreak is not too far from me
KodiakDDS
Given enough time, this situation is going to fix itself. Keep using masks and hand sanitizer and just wait
Waiting lets the disease mutate into something deadlier.
That's what I'm referring to
... masks and hand sanitizer aren't gonna be guarantees at that point. They aren't even guarantees now.
