I think you need to look up the definition of false equivalency, it is not an apple to orange kind of thing to say all viruses can kill. I'm not denying some kill more than others, but they all kill. If you can't understand this fact, I don't know what to tell you.
You're stating that all viruses kill (which may have some holes in it already) therefore all viruses are technically the same, which ignores the differences in damage they do to people.
If you had any actual point to make with your pedantic bullshit, I didn't see it. You're just textually masturbating as far as I can tell.
Yes, I am, and I'm pretty sure that's a fact.
That's not what I'm saying at all, does saying all people die mean all people are the same? Does saying all murders kill mean they are all the same? No, there are obviously differences.
The fact I said isn't about differences in damage, facts don't have to say everything to be facts. My fact also isn't saying or implying that they do the same damage.
Look at the context of who I was responding to. They were basically saying that if it kills we should wear a mask, I pointed out that All viruses kill and we don't wear masks because of those, so just the fact that it kills isn't enough.
And there's the false equivalency that you're trying to banish with sophistry magic.
They said "it kills" in a non-precise pedantically-incorrect way about something that is dangerous and you're doing victory laps congratulating yourself on a
tier "technically correct" masturbatory moment.
Again, I think you need to look up the definition of false equivalency, what I am saying isn't that.
Define dangerous, because I wouldn't call current strains of covid dangerous. The hospitalized death rate isn't that far off the flu at this point. It used to be more deadly, but it's just not anymore.
But hey, at least we can agree I'm technically correct.
You're being dense on purpose because it's that important for you to congratulate yourself on a silly pedantic thing that none one else cared about, not the person you were being smug to in the first place, and not to me.
Your self-congratulatory narcissism is noted.![congratulations congratulations](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/26e3a6ce-963e-4b86-8dbf-53995af2cfba.gif)
