If you're referring to letting your own personal observations and judgement inform your worldview, instead of letting others do it for you, it's quite nice actually. I highly recommend it for all.

I live under my bed, not a rock. And like I said its scary. I only have the fortitude to peek out once a day. And when I see that big scary number grow and grow I just scurry back on under.

I keep trying to tell myself to look at other statistics and facts.....but Ive seen enough thankyou.

Scroll down to the bar graph...

For the hysterical perspective select "Show Totals". US is clearly the worst, if that's the poltical narrative you're looking for.

For the mathematical statistical perspective, select "Show Rates", then sort by "Fatality Rate"

Now for more math and science (I know, this is getting really hard), here's the Per Capita stats....

Why is it hard for you to comprehend a per capita listing?

I’m already well informed about all the data points you’ve shared, Rick. I am not trying to push a political narrative, rather I’m making the meme to illuminate the ignorance amongst our ranks.

Here’s a data point, compare Week .40-Week 17 of 2017-2018 to 2019-2020; very nearly the same total deaths. 1,727,xxx vs. 1,733,xxx

You have lost me.

The meme isn't working, makes you look like a single issue zealot incapable of comprehending the nuance or complexity of the situation.

If your highlighting percapita statistics...... Then why use this figure?

Spell out the ignorance please; tell me what I am missing. Or, more correctly what you perceive I am missing.

All you have done is push a narrative. Just copy and paste your handler's message.

Ouch, but not unwarranted at this point.
