Give this lady a Darwin award (posthumously, of course).

On Tuesday, the Cape Cod Times reported that Linda Zuern, a former member of the Bourne, Massachusetts Board of Selectmen and a Trump-supporting figure in the local Republican Party, had died of COVID-19.
Zuern died at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston of severe complications caused by COVID-19, according to the report. She was 70 years old and had not been vaccinated.
"She was a strong woman who believed in speaking the truth and defending our freedoms in America," Republican State Committeewoman Deborah Dugan told the Cape Cod Times. Dugan was at Zuern's bedside when she died. "I would describe her to people as a little woman but a mighty warrior."
For months, Zuern, a member of the pro-Trump group the United Cape Patriots, had promoted conspiracy theories about the pandemic on Facebook. She has shared articles accusing the World Health Organization of a coverup of the "Wuhan Virus" and claiming COVID-19 is cover for "globalists" to usher in "U.N. Agenda 2030" — a sustainable development initiative right-wing conspiracy theorists assert is a plot to create a one world government.
Zuern also expressed support for the QAnon conspiracy theory, posting their creed of "WWG1WGA" (Where We Go One, We Go All).
Zuern promoted the use of hydroxychloroquine as a treatment of COVID-19 during a Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates meeting in December and questioned whether officials "had looked into preventative measures that people could use besides a vaccine to help build up their immune system," the Cape Cod Times reported.
Peter Meier, chair of the Board of Selectmen, said Zuern cared deeply about others. "She definitely left her mark on the community," he added.
According to the report, Zuern and her mother contracted COVID-19 while returning home from a trip to South Dakota — a state where Republican-motivated policies have let the virus propagate with little control.

He didn’t blame them. He predicted they would say the story was BS because of the complete bubble they live in. You then fulfilled his prediction by calling it BS with no basis whatsoever and digging your heels in as far as you could.

What does that have to do with you blaming people on a message board for his death because of misinformation?

Apparently, because you didn’t read it correctly. He said “go ahead and call bs, a,b,c,d.”
He didn’t say “if only a, b,c, and d hadn’t made those 1000 dumbass posts on CP my friend would be alive.”
Instead he blamed misinformation generally, which you and a,b,c, and d are no doubt part of, but a pretty small and sad part. His buddy probably listened to Tucker Carlson or Alex Berenson’s tweets which you guys just parrot.
Lost was the key word you used, considering the person in question wasn’t dead yet.... well you accidentally either determined he is going to die already, or you forgot your lie. Which is it?

I hope he pulls through. It’s not going to happen. I’m glad you’re pumped about an American hero losing his life so you can win a message board fight.

Look,
It’s not that I wouldn’t love to go back and forth with you. It’s just right now I’m talking with other people. I’m going to need you to wait your turn. Because you deserve my undivided attention, make sense?
