Dear Liberal, You’re Not That Special
20th May 2020
Last night I saw one of my exes post to her wall, the same familiar screed. “Oh my god. My governor is opening up the state of Oregon. Think of all the people who are going to die.”
I checked out the state of Oregon, it has a population of 4.218 million. It has had a grand total of 140 deaths. Over two-thirds of them are over the age of 65 and every single death had an underlying condition according to the stats I can find.
Sorry but you and your husband, a pair of 30-somethings who do kickboxing for a hobby, are going to be fine. You’re not that special.
