Quote:A Trumptard is told to stop smoking. Their first and often only reaction is "You can't tell me what to do." Give it a little time. Then they die of smoking. Rush Limbaugh is the most famous Trumptard example of that.

Another factor may be trend in unemployment. The (former) working class derives much of its self-esteem and feelings of agency from having a job. Take that away and you get the diseases of despair, including alcoholism, (other) drug addiction, and suicide. Also, stress overeating. Did they correct for trends in joblessness?
I've seen these studies before, and the conclusion usually drawn from them has nothing to do with "Democrat v Republican" but that the decline in lifespan is mostly attributable to stress and "diseases of despair", and that is caused by factors mostly outside of individuals' control.
Signym, do you really think there is no connection between "You can't tell me what to do" and their death by smoking? There tend to be many Americans who have the mental glitch "You can't tell me what to do" but the heaviest concentration of Americans with that glitch are the Trumptards. It is not just smoking, either. It could be getting vaccinated, and not just for covid.
Signym, there is an abundance of good health advice circulating such as don't get fat, don't get drunk, much of it from authorities who know. And there are many people who refuse good advice and they end up dead because of that refusal to listen to authorities. It is not the authorities' fault. The fault is within those who won't listen and learn. I call bullshit on your "decline in lifespan is mostly attributable to stress and "diseases of despair", and that is caused by factors mostly outside of individuals' control." The factors are NOT, repeat, NOT "mostly" outside the individual's control. Overeating? Drug use? Alcohol consumption? Not exercising? In what world are those controlled by someone other than the individual?
In my experience, the kind of people who defend Trump are not learning from his mistakes. They insist he is not mistaken! (During his blundering business career he has been sued over and over because Trump is a mistake-making machine.) They are the same people who don't learn what mistakes not to make in order to avoid an early death.

"Told" by who? Get fucked, Hitler.

So now we're pretending Democrats don't smoke.
You are an idiot.

Just like I said in April of 2020 and all the way up until now, the more time that passes the more right I will be proven about all of this...

I hope everybody who got "vaccinated" doesn't live to regret it.
As it stands now, I'm the only person in my family who didn't get one.

Vaccine mandates made teachers who don't believe in science quit, nurses who don't believe in medicine resign, and police officers who don't believe in public safety retire.
I call that a great side effect.

A wave of anti-vaccine legislation is sweeping the United States
The anti-vaccine movement is gaining strength even after 1 million Americans have died of Covid-19.
Across the country, Republican lawmakers have drafted a pile of anti-vaccine mandate bills this year, chipping away at a foundational health practice for the last half-century. More than 80 anti-vaccine bills have been introduced in state legislatures, according to academics tracking the phenomenon.
A new study from a group of Yale University scholars found that Republicans experienced a meaningfully higher death rate from Covid-19 than Democrats — and the difference was almost entirely concentrated in the period after the vaccine became available.
https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w30512/w30512.pdf
According to new survey data from the Pew Research Center, just 4 percent of Americans say they have gotten the updated bivalent booster shot targeted to the omicron variant of Covid-19. Combined with those who say they will “probably” get another booster dose (44 percent), less than half of Americans are expecting to stay current with their Covid vaccinations, despite the urging of public health officials.
New projections from the Commonwealth Fund estimated that, if vaccination rates were to remain unchanged in the next few months, the US will be averaging about 1,200 deaths from Covid-19 every day by March.
What is clear by now is projections like these, or all the pleading of public health leaders, cannot overcome the rampant anti-vaccine skepticism that has taken hold in the US, particularly on the right. As Dorit Reiss, a UC Hastings law professor who is tracking anti-vaccine legislation in the states, put it to me, the pandemic “turbocharged things that were already happening.”
“We’ve seen increasing politicization of vaccine mandates before the pandemic,” she said. “But not to the degree we’re seeing now.”
And with the anti-vaccine movement growing stronger, experts expect its adherents to grow only more ambitious, targeting the school vaccine mandates that have been critical up to now in eradicating diseases like measles, mumps, and polio.

No. Not anti-vax. Anti-non-working-Covid-"vaccine" that made Billions and Billions for Pfizer and killed healthy people with more deaths on the way.

No. 1 million Americans did not die of Covid.
You're a fucking worthless idiot.

Quote:Hotez said that, in Texas, he is anticipating a “full-throttle assault against childhood vaccination requirements in schools” during the upcoming legislative session. According to Reiss’s review of the public health legislation database at the National Conference of State Legislatures, at least 88 bills have been introduced in state legislatures in 2022 that would roll back school vaccine requirements or eliminate the right of a minor to make their own decisions about getting vaccinated. Nearly half of the anti-vaccine bills extended beyond the Covid-19 shots, she said, to block schools from requiring other kinds of vaccinations as well.

“Even if they don’t pass, legislators think this is an area they should focus on and there is political capital to be gained,” Reiss said.

Stick around.
We're going to see how many children you and Pfizer killed.
