Sorry for using "virus thing", there is a shadow TOS that only applies to me, I find out new just-for-me rules and restrictions as I go, but apparently one of them is that I can't refer to the virus for its name.

Anyway, I was wondering how people are not amazingly angry and disappointed about how the government and society in general has treated most people in these "virus thing" times?

People obey the way and pay their taxes year round, and then a pandemic happens and how do they react? Let's see:

  • "let's lie to the people about using masks. We want doctors to have masks and we don't have enough so let's tell them not to use them, who cares if they get sick"
  • Target is selling masks? Masks are not for you! Let's take them off the shelves!
  • "hand sanitizer? This is not for you! This is for the hospitals! Let's divert a lot of it to hospitals!
  • You got sick? No tests for you! These are for superstar athletes, celebrities, and politicians. I don't care if you can pay for a test, it's not for you :)
  • hahahaha! You want a hospital bed? You want a respirator? Get in line, loser, we don't have enough because we never plan for this sort of contingencies.
  • Rent and mortgage payment suspensions? Bailout for the people? HAHAHAA. BRB excuse me, I'm bailing out airlines and other industries.
  • Awwww poor thing, you need TP to wipe your ass now that COVID gave you diarrhea? Sorry! People panic-bought it all and we're not doing anything about it. Awwww you wanted to buy it from amazon? Now amazon is just taking in its warehouses medical supplies. Why don't you shit in the shower?


It seems the govt has done a huge effort to say "we DON'T have your back. Actually, fuck you". Just like capcom is anti-gamer, it seems these guys are anti-people.

I'm a bit shocked people are ok with this.

You just used "COVID", and nobody is going to mod you if you say "Coronavirus" (or even "Corona Beerus"). What name do you want to use?

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".
There is "would've", "should've" and "could've".

You won't get modded for calling it Coronavirus or COVID-19 which are the names for it. Using racist terminology to refer to it will of course get you modded, just like everyone else. You aren't special.

I knew it, TC is a racist

He's also having a major and weird meltdown right now

You just used "REDACTED", and nobody is going to mod you if you say "REDACTED 2" (or even "REDACTED 3"). What name do you want to use?

You can. Most can. I can't.

Is this really what people want to focus on, and not the point I raised, though? It makes me lose faith in people's critical thinking abilities, which would explain why they're ok with what has been going on

Now even a moderator is here to troll me. You made your point, mock at the fact that the TOS can be bent vs me. Now, care about the point I brought up, you know, 99% OF THE POST rather than the stuff you want to rub in my face?

TC keeps making topics about the virus so he can complain about his "virus thing" moderation just so he can shitpost about it for some reason. Just stop responding.

that's only slightly more subtle than calling it "the Wuhan virus" or "the Chinese virus"

just use the name

How about calling it by it's actual name, rather than trying to politicize and blame?
