re: #253 Eclectic Cyborg

As governments and health authorities around the world battle to contain the spread of the new Omicron strain of Covid-19, it has been reported that one of the first cases detected in the United States—a man who had travelled to New York from Minnesota—was in the city to attend an anime convention.

The man, from Hennepin County, was vaccinated according to Minnesota’s Department of Health. After developing mild symptoms on November 22—which have already “resolved”—he was tested on November 24, before isolating.

Between November 19-21, however, he had been in New York City attending Anime NYC 2021 at the Javits Center, an event that attracted over 53,000 fans. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is now urging every single attendee of and worker at the convention to get tested immediately.

But sure, let’s just keep pretending this pandemic is over.

It is truly astonishing watching the anti-vaxxers, anti-maskers, anti-social distancers and other ‘Real Americans™’ self-own during a pandemic. You have to be partially or mostly insane not to see what is happening around you or at least have the tiniest cognitive spark to understand that you are being played. Being played by people who are vaccinated and using you for politics. Literally killing you for politics.

Unreal.
