Can that be true? A real failure if so. My understanding is that the elderly vote Republican and die from Covid. So managing to kill more young Democrats means they have been put at risk, forced to work, commute, and study in unsafe environments, to prop up the profits of a few billionaires.Randomizer wrote: ↑Fri Jan 22, 2021 4:12 pmBut most of the US deaths were Democrats. persons of color, and poor so they don't count in Republican minds.

I would be surprised, though not too surprised (also, however many deaths in prisons I'm pretty sure neither Democrats nor Republicans count convicts as people, or let them vote).
Of course it's not true. The idea that Democrats, ethnic minorities, and the less well off not counting to Republicans is pure political bigotry with no basis in reality. As for whether most deaths are from Democrats, it's impossible to say. Although I share your suspicion that the age demographic makes it more likely that Republican leaning populations have fared somewhat worse.orathaic wrote: ↑Fri Jan 22, 2021 11:18 pmCan that be true?

Yes, we know both sides are full of bigots. A well established fact. What does that have to do with who died of COVID-19?micha wrote: ↑Sat Jan 23, 2021 3:46 pmHere’s Republicans literally demanding that Black votes shouldn’t countOctavious wrote: ↑Sat Jan 23, 2021 2:11 pmOf course it's not true.
