Americans prefer death over tyranny.
Shocker.
Seems I've heard this before somewhere....

RE: Death Rates Up 40% Over Pre-Pandemic Numbers
One thing I left out of the OP, if you didn't watch the videos, is that 40% is of those between ages 18 - 64.

RE: Death Rates Up 40% Over Pre-Pandemic Numbers
So I looked up the 2018 deaths within that age group for 2018 (latest I could find). Lets do some back of the napkin math.
For people from age 18 to 64---the total 2018 death rate was about 3,368 per 100K of population. Couldnt find the 2021 figures, but a 40% increase in the 2018 number would be 4715 deaths per 100K in population. Thats an increase of 1,347 per 100K of population.
We had 386,000 reported US Covid deaths for 2021 as of late November (that number certainly was higher as of Dec 31 2021). If we divide 386,000 deaths by 2770 (roughly the 64 and under US population divided by 100K)---we get about 139. So Covid only accounted for abut 139 deaths per 100K of the 64 and under population in 2021 (and that overstates the number because the total number of Covid deaths includes many deaths where the victims were OVER 64 years old). If the 40% increase in death is correct, that leaves at least 1208 excess deaths (per 100K of 64 or under population) unaccounted for by the current Covid numbers. So yeah---he has a point---the current Covid death numbers simply fail to explain that kind of rise in death rate....they dont even come close.
