The full quote is: > Now that the death numbers are greater than the flu, we are still at the "those people were going to die within a year anyway" phase, and the "I am okay and have a BMI less than 30 so therefore people like me are okay" phase. The user you're criticizing is expressing puzzlement at how many are still at those phases. They're not agreeing with those assessments. So you're picking a fight with the wrong person. Indeed, you're picking a fight with someone who likely agrees with you on the substantive issues.
