Without a helmet on a motorcycle you'll get brain bits on someone else when you might not have before, but if you're not wearing a seat belt in a car, your actual body could fly out and hit someone else and kill them.

But of course, that's possible on a motorcycle no matter what you do.

the brazilian middle class yankee-wannabes are deffo there because of loving course they are bolsonaro voters

I am talking people with the national football team shirt and carrying maga hats or american flags here in pro-bolsonaro rallies, an entire new dimension of ideological failure only possible in these trying times
glad to see brazil is showing some solidarity with america :911:

But yeah it's a uniquely melting pot shitshow of decades of building:

- atomization and community destruction. crab bucketing, gently caress the neighbors, gently caress people not immediately me, etc. there's no real sense being part of anything so why do i care what happens to anyone else? theres no community under capitalism, do i give a poo poo if some workers get sick from giving me a haircut and get their parents killed? gently caress no. not part of MY HOU SE! just look at the way everyone treats public spaces, public transit, parks, beaches etc. People love just absolutely trashing the gently caress out of everything because gently caress it, i don't care what other people experience and if people care they can clean up after me.

- all media consolidating into essentially propaganda pieces and either not to be trusted (cnn/msnbc/npr/nyt/etc) or super trustworthy everything they say is True (fox news, sinclair broadcasting, etc). note that conservatives spent be the better parts of buying up local paper and local radio/local tv stations in the late 90s and 2000s and shutting it down or consolidating into garbage and it's paid off in spades because it reaches people who think their local stuff was trustworthy but it's just essentially OANN slinging whatever on the cheap.

- Big Guvmint Libs want to take ARE FREEDOMS. just look at sars/swine flu/bird flu/ebola/zika!!!! so much hoax haha i won't get owned by da libs this time

- Wearing masks is emasculating. i think something showed like men had a compliance that was like 1/5th that of women, just absolutely insanely. years spent being mentally-ill judging other people induces a thought that that's how everyone else must surely be thinking if you were to do that too-- you dont want to look like a loving PUSSY now do you?

- not enough people being visibly dead yet

I'm not sure the raw fatality rate matters that much by itself. I think the only way for these people to change is to lose someone close to them.

suppose this was something much more terrible (knocks on wood, grabs a rosary): smallpox.

I mean, this is visceral poo poo: I look at images of people with smallpox and my brain lights up on fire sounding all alarms in a way that far more gross images do not cause nowhere near this sort of intense reaction

I have trouble believing that even if Trump made a constitutional amendment saying "it is nothing it is just a different but same-ish variola virus" people would not be loving around, you know?

but of course there are moms out there who think deliberately exposing children to chickenpox is a good idea and I could see others going "bah chickenpox smallpox all of that is just the same"

so, gently caress it, let us go all the way since it still happens today (and hell I just looked it up and happened last time in the USA in 2015): plague. the real deal, Yersinia pestis, Black loving Death, First Rider of the Judgement Times, etc

bruises all over the body, gangrene, delirious fever and ridiculous pain, death in less than ten days, if it is the pneumonic variety then only by grace of divine mercy that one survives left untreated.

that is what would require for such a large group of people to loving get it?

This. costume designing and decorating the poo poo out of your place and outside with 2spooky stuff or thematic stuff (we've done alice-in-wonderland tulgey woods/tea party, an Over the Garden Wall party, pirates, nightmare before christmas, victorian hellscape, guillotine party) is a whole lot of fun. Plus getting plastered while dressing up owns and cooking elaborate themed foods and zany cocktails for friends and you just roll with it without any expectation of pressure.

also as i said before we get about 1000 kids to my 1br apartment alone each year because some neighbors close off our little street and it becomes a "destination" spot because apparently no one trick-or-treats in their own neighborhood anymore and have to drive someone. It's really sweet and adorable seeing the tiny widdle babies who cant even talk as their parents try to coax "now what do you say aiden? "ppwee pwee peas!" :starting at like 4-5pm :3: and slowly getting up in age with really elaborate and adorable costumes going until 12pm when you just get the high schoolers in the laziest costumes known to man which owns. also its fun to hand out beer to dads who appreciate that.

plus yeah throwing on some horror movies as the night goes on and marathoning various 1920s to modern stuff into wee hours of the night with everyone losing consciousness. Trick R Treat is a fun staple and tradition to watch too. though we haven't done much horror-movie marathons in several years nows, I hope to maybe do something with online peeps/goons this year. maybe we can do a spooky-movie-night for each day of October?

like it's genuinely the one day out of the year i can shed my post-modern irony dead-inside 24/7 stoicicism fugue-state-of-existence that we call living and just really have a lot of fun. a yearly ray of sunshine in hellworld

I appreciate the Bushido spirit of the Floridians and Disney goers. They understand that an act may have implicit value even if if it results in your death. There is honor in riding the teacups and meaning in the lapping pools of SplashMountain, though the end that awaits us all comes faster then. Yet The Disney Goers care not where they fall, only that their fastpast is glorious.
