    Antivaxxer @delbigtree posted a rant denying the severity of #COVID19, blaming the chronically ill for having made themselves vulnerable to severe disease through their lifestyle choices, and urging the healthy to “catch this cold.” Dangerous idiocy.https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/antivaccine-leader-del-bigtree-on-covid-19-lets-catch-this-cold-why-antivaxxers-and-coronavirus-conspiracy-theorists-are-often-one-in-the-same/ …

        Amusingly, I just realized that I must have recently passed Del in the number of followers. I usually don't care a lot about such things, but in this case I'll make an exception.😂

        Ah yes my "lifestyle choices" of... Being born 10weeks preemie and <2lbs in mass before surfactant therapy was a thing so my lungs are shitty? I wonder if these ppl are truly ignorant or if they just want chronically ill and disabled ppl to die.

        I see "It only affects old and fat people, so why should anyone else care and why should we all suffer for it?" so often that it make me wonder how long people will keep dying from this disease and what the hell happened to having compassion for other people.

        Don't forget disabled & chronically ill ppl. A lot of them are getting pretty damn close to explicitly advocating eugenics. I've seen some of the far right edgelords say things like it'll strengthen the genepool etc.

        Do you get an extra credit Darwin Award when you convince other people to take their lives into their own hands?
