Here it is:
WHY THE SCHADENFREUDE?
You’ve likely seen it. I’ve posted “KARMA” headlined content mocking those who publicly and vigorously spread lies about vaccines and/or politicized COVID restrictions as some unAmerican “assault on freedom”… and then became infected by COVID and died.
Some say that’s cruel.
I say it’s necessary.
Because walking around unvaccinated and unrestricted in the throes of a consequential, spreading, and raging pandemic IS NO DIFFERENT THAN DRUNK DRIVING because yes, you might die by your inexcusable behavior, but worse, YOU MIGHT TAKE INNOCENT PEOPLE WITH YOU to the grave.
And there’s the rub.
There’s the difference.
That’s why I mock.
That’s why I suggest they got what they deserved.
Because, unlike risky choices that only endanger the chooser - like BASE jumping, skydiving, mountain climbing, hang gliding, or tightrope walking, we have the unvaccinated potentially catching and spreading a fatal disease to others, including their own family and anyone they can convince to join them.
Eschewing vaccines and then mingling among us isn’t different than driving impaired by drinks or drugs.
Your “freedoms” END when you ENDANGER OTHERS!
And now TWO YEARS INTO THIS, those who ignore the science CANNOT claim they didn’t know better. And let’s remember, I only point out the passing of those who PUBLICLY and PROUDLY spread LIES about vaccines, masks, and distancing. I only target those who HEARD and SAW THE FACTS AND DATA and STILL
SELFISHLY BEHAVED WITH COMPLETE DISREGARD FOR THE CONSEQUENCES to either themselves or OTHERS.
I bother to point out who they are because there’s a chance those who are doing the same thing might WAKE UP and STOP BEING THE REASON WE CAN’T END THIS NIGHTMARE.
They’re not “victims”. They’re PERPETRATORS and they must be called out.
Even after they’re gone.
In fact… ESPECIALLY after they’re gone.

Even still, only now it is not days or weeks or months, but years. Only you can prevent the spread from killing you and me. Think about the babies, the children, the teens, the parents, the Grandparents, you are the cause of destroying the lives of everyone you love.
