Boris Johnson Suggested He Thought Covid Was ‘Nature’s Way of Dealing With Old People’
I remember this on Reddit, is Boris an edgy memelord?
Chances are he didn't do it entirely for the meme, so probably not
*Boomer Doomer
He's almost 60. He is not exactly a spring chicken.
He was also significantly over weight during this period with little exercise and, in a high stress job (not that it stopped him from his afternoon naps).
He also caught COVID quite early on (Late March), which was no surprise as he liked to attend parties when all this was going on, and was hospitalised for one on one care early for preventative care including oxygen back when oxygen was being restricted for preventative care.
I am not suggesting the PM shouldn't have had the best care available, more that hes proven to lack empathy of anything he hasn't experienced himself, so is highly unlikely to understand just how overloaded the NHS was at this point and that his experience was anything other than privileged.
Herman Cain, yes you can!
He ended up in ICU after contracting COVID, after all.
Does he not realize that he's pretty much in that group now? And a massive chunk of his voters already are? Is he saying he thinks mother nature has it out for him?
You can be damn sure that he'll get the best medical care available on the planet for himself.
This was before he caught it, so he probably did eventually realise yeah
Surely not, he's quite fit right, he goes on all those runs.
Which only supports my notion that he is terminally stupid. Those "old people" are their primary voter base.
Hot Take:
He's fuckin old too
Meh, attacking pensioners’ livelihoods never cost Tories votes, why should attacking their actual lives?
That's because all of the things that Tories do are reported on the internet, and that's a scary place that their voters don't look at.
If only the virus had a better sense of irony
Imagine working your entire life and then dieing to covid during retirement. A tiny fraction of your life was free.
Image of devoted hardworking employee that will go places is form of manipulation.
Why can't we slap empathy into people? How was this bloodsucker ever welcomed into the halls of power?
I think it is lack of empathy which helped him gain entry.
Oh, you can. You'll need a large hammer for that, something like 5kg or bigger.
No one else there has any either
Didn't realize only old people could have organ transplants, cancer, autoimmune disease, or just simply weaker immune systems.
Good thing it's only old people.
I had a friend die from covid at 38. Another guy down the road died in his early 30s. They were both fat but probably should have had another 20 years at least.
Oh BoJo, you scamp! You sad parody of a human being! What will he say next?
Cancer is natural, should we stop treating that too?
"Placental cancer is nature's way of dealing with unborn babies." -- Boris Johnson, probably
Nature's way of dealing with stupid people, maybe.
They hated him because he told the truth
Surely he just said that as a joke. I know I have
Elegant!
I mean, it's true, but not really helpful or necessary to say it out loud.
Its as true as saying AIDs was nature's way of dealing with gay people. Which is to say it's absolutely untrue and way of passing off moral responsibility to anthropomorphized concepts.
?
Disease and starvation has always been nature's way of dealing with the elderly and weak. You can look to any species on earth and this is true. We aren't special just because we are human, we have just been smart enough to mostly avoid it. Why the fuck did you feel the need to bring up aids and gay people? It has nothing to do with any of this.
What a legend
I hate this guy, but based take
He's not entirely wrong...we're due for a population correction of some sort.
Be the change you want to see, population correct yourself
We aren't due for anything. This is the gamblers fallacy. No one is sitting there and keeping track ready to swoop in and decimate the population.
The same OLd PeoPLe that vote for these motherfuckers
Something something leopards and faces
"My face will eat the leopards!"
They had already voted for him. At that point, they've fulfilled their use, and if anything he'd probably be quite happy to off a few of them.
He was never a party man. His entire cabinet would happily see the Conservative party burn once they've got their money and power out of the public.
And they have. It's gonna be fun seeing how few seats they get next election
