I believe people do care how many die in car accidents. That’s why every year for decades the safety standards of cars have exponentially improved. If it makes no difference then rip out your airbags and collision avoidance systems or buy a Ford Pinto.
Look, I get it. Your Rush Limbaugh’s and Fox & Friends push the message of “this is just a cold” and “sure people are dying, but it’s not you is it” and “this is just an attack on our president.” I’m not here to change your minds because I think most are thoroughly broken anyway; however, I would suggest try to be an adult. If this kills someone you care about I doubt you’ll be quoting car crash statistics to anyone.
