What I find less amusing is that you were so easily swayed by your politics that you advocate here for zero personal resonsibility which is a terrible message to send during a pandemic.
Could you point out some statements of mine that advocate for zero personal responsibility please? Or is this just the usual 2+2=8 sort of what-aboutism seen on this forum?

Where did I say the riots are covid proof? Do you have any actual defense of Trump other than false equivalency and what aboutism?

That's what I was looking for on his twitter, but didn't have two hours to get back through 3 months of his anti-Trump tweets.

Trump supporters will retort by saying, "Well, the fake media and democrats started it with the fake news/investigations.

There's a difference between investigating a president for what they believe is improper conduct versus spreading all-out falsehoods and conspiracy theories that have no basis in reality.
You are confusing presidents. You just described, "elections have consequences" Obama.

Why is it so hard for Trump and his supporters to just follow his own simple guidelines. Watch Trump on TV or just ignore it all together, its like watching a rerun of the same comments over and over. There is absolutely nothing of substance, why waste your life.

I'm ok with this but I draw the line at intentionally killing senior citizens in nursing homes.

Proof that if they changed the name to protests, things would be all good.

In that very post you are stating that those that voluntarily decide to gather indoors in large numbers are not culpable for their actions but were rather "killed" by the host.

Your negligent homicide claim would thus extend to people that decide to cram into a restaurant, attend a wedding and so forth where the person to blame would not be them (otherwise it can't be negligent homicide). In that case, the people deciding not to social distance are not to blame but rather the bride and groom or restaurant owner.

You cannot have negligent homicide if the people involved were party to it. There is no such thing as negligent suicide.

P.S. So speaking of 2 + 2 = 8, you can't have negligent homicide without absolving all attendees of personal responsibility which is again, a horrible decision in stopping Covid.
