Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

The Democrats declared victory over covid and took away all the progressive policies enacted because of the pandemic. That immediately took healthcare away from tons of people, and plunged many more back into poverty. They did this after taking a victory lap for lifting so many people out of poverty in the pandemic response.
Covid isnt killing as many people but it's still a pandemic virus with unpredictable worldwide waves, but now everyone "middle class" and under are poorer and struggling with inflation. They are also getting sick a lot more often by something that can't be covid, because covid is over, right?
Great job!
Hey don’t forget about the various long term effects of Covid infection we still don’t fully understand! Who cares if everyone contracts a flu that causes brain damage, they don’t need those brains to work!
And lets just ignore the dramatic increase and heart attacks and stroke. That's a future problem that science magicians will fix.
I have been feeling dumb as hell lately
