stop pushing against the health and safety measures that have helped Canada avoid the brutal death rates that America has.

Lazy response. Citations needed. You have no idea what you're talking about, you're talking out of your ass: respond to my specific points. Comorbidities play a major role in hospitalization and death and overall Canadians are healthier than Americans, for one point - but you're clearly not interested in deepening your understanding and put out lazy generalized statements like you just replied with - in an attempt to lazily demonize me. The lack of effort you put into being willing to engage should be a signal to yourself that you're not well-enough versed into actually making statements like you're making.

  You've convinced me. We need to open up. It's critical for people's mental health that people need to see marvel movies in theatre unmasked. dead bodies be damned.

    Oh wow, look at that, how surprising that you're being sarcastic and go to an all-or-nothing response that lacks nuance and critical thinking. "All-or-nothing thinking is one of many negative thought processes, known as cognitive distortions, that are common among people with anxiety and depression. When thinking in all-or-nothing terms, you split your views into extremes." Perhaps you have anxiety or are depressed and aren't capable of thinking critically on the issue?

    Since you don't seem to like to read much, here's a specific statistic that shows how the statistic you presented is grossly misrepresenting the situation by masking reality: "CDC saw 51% increase in suicide attempts by adolescent girls during pandemic [age 12-25]" https://nbcmontana.com/news/nation-world/cdc-saw-51-increase-in-suicide-attempts-by-adolescent-girls-during-pandemic https://nbcmontana.com/news/nation-world/cdc-saw-51-increase... And the source: https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7024e1.htm https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/70/wr/mm7024e1.htm But who cares if there's more young girls killing themselves if less older people kill themselves, AMIRITE?

      We're not seeing an increase in deaths by suicide, and most countries are not seeing an increase in deaths in that age group. https://www.bmj.com/content/371/bmj.m4352.full?ijkey=NDYZgh6xGYgX9az&keytype=ref https://www.bmj.com/content/371/bmj.m4352.full?ijkey=NDYZgh6...

        So quality of mental health gets written off as unimportant - a 51% increase in attempts doesn't matter, only if they were successful would you care? Is that what you're suggesting?
