COVID-19 Elderly deaths – Rural Tompkins County

“The World According to Doctrine” — “Let’s share what we’ve got of yours . . .”

“We can share what we got of yours, ’cause we done shared all of mine” — Grateful Dead. “Jack Straw”

While much is made of sharing out Social Security and the benefits of a lifetime of toil – we are living in a time that is notably lacking in togetherness and empathy.

Once we pass the threshold of our giving; we reach a deserted plateau indifference – where even the cries of our COVID “die off” are sucked into non-existence.

Our sharing is a Millennial Judgement – the expiation of some kind of Doctrinal “Original Sin” – a giving of tribute: a recognition of superiority.

Maybe their sharing would reduce their perfection by some small amount – or acknowledgement of us would make them unclean.

They won’t even share the time to try to understand.

“The World According to Doctrine” — “769,656 Elderly COVID deaths” Bumper sticker

When you’re disposable; there’s always a reason for not doing anything to help. It’s just another untold story – that is telling in its absence.

Authorities could have warned seniors that if they felt threatened; they should temporarily change their will and inform the beneficiaries – but that might cause problems: when you’re disposable; you’re not a victim. Shhhhhh . . .

“The World According to Doctrine” — “The elderly are no longer a source of wisdom” Bumper sticker

Elderly COVID deaths for inheritance – unreported and un-prevented. With 750,000 people over the age of 65 dying from the COVID virus, and the current entitlement mind-set in the country — do you really believe it’s not happening?

Government and the media [and AARP] don’t want to upset them — isn’t that the same as animals in a slaughter house?

The elderly have been targeted for use; until they’re all used up. Then it will be someone else’s turn . . .

We’re not out of the woods yet — but we’re on the highway. It’s a good time to remember where we’ve been.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – 2022: “The elderly demographic” Bumper sticker

“2022: The elderly are no longer a deserving demographic.” — they’re hardly even a statistic.

Just as unborn children are no longer human beings under New York’s Progressive lawmaking; the state’s elderly have been shunted into a position of voiceless helplessness . . . and hopelessness — a caricature of fragility; under the synthetic smile of an indifferent bureaucracy.

While colleges clamor ever more loudly for aging alumni to give and bequeath: how many have reached out to help those alumni in their isolation and disconnection?

The Silence of the Virus – the voice of compassion stilled.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “COVID in the USA” Bumper sticker

Compassion is just another piece of “we are the change” vaporware. The only rising tide our elderly felt during the Pandemic; left them struggling to keep their heads above water – or not.

Our “Better Nature” has become a fold-out brochure – no more than a media promo spot – a marketing tool. And not to be confused with “truth in advertising.”

The elderly are “Victims” — and in our stratified future: you can’t change your label.

Only our government can do that – or not.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rise of the Evil Ones” – Form Based Evil – COVID Room

“Exposed!” It could be the headline for a Pandemic story that can’t be written. Compassion is no longer a human feeling; it’s a marketing tool. Say “pandemic” and “compassion” together and a picture of a smiling health care worker or first responder appears. Victims are no more than an object — the messy collateral of societal policies and problems.

The elderly did the dying; and there was silence instead of crying. Instead: the Media lamented that kids had to stay at home and play Xbox and text each other; rather than visit their friends and play Xbox and text each other. Our elderly are looked on as an object of the past – put on a display shelf – and minimally cared for to retain their catalog value. They’re a piggy bank waiting to be smashed open — so don’t live too long and disappoint the kids.

Somewhere in our money-changing maze; bureaucrats are gleefully rubbing their hands together and thinking of all the Social Security payments they can keep. But that’s another story . . .

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “The good news?” Bumper sticker

In a world of users: someone’s always trying to get a handle on you. In New York State: Where lawmakers have declared that unborn children are not Human Beings — the same lawmakers declare that it’s compassion that shapes their policies. Our government is not about human worth: It’s all about the bottom line — and you can’t get any lower than their bottom line.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “COVID Inheritance Planning” Bumper sticker

The entitlement – the virus – over half-a-million elderly deaths – and no news stories? Don’t create any harmful anxiety — they might change their wills.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “but ethnicity did the crying” Bumper sticker

They were “going to die soon anyway” – “it’s culling the herd” – “it’s the nursing homes” – “they’re wallets” – “it’s due to pre-existing conditions” – it’s politics without ethics or compassion; anything to minimize it and rationalize it — it’s not who dies; it’s what you’re worth in our eyes.

Need vaccine? Fill out the form. Are you an Easter Islander? No? Then just mark “white.” Check the box if you’re “someone who has a sexual fetish for dolls that were made between 1903 and 1908” – it’s good to see we have our priorities straight; as we’re spinning down the YouTubes to an all-chomping reality that doesn’t give a shit.
