How curious human beings are

I've said it before. But the desperation amongst some people on here to see death rates sky-rocket just so they can prove a political point is sickening.

That's true and it is sickening. But across the entire political spectrum we're seeing political point-scoring prioritised over solving the problem.
And it's not just people hoping for more deaths to prove a political point. It's clear from this (just as it's clear from the global warming nonsense) that there are a lot of people who just love disasters. The bigger the disaster the happier they are. And unfortunately scientists seem to be particularly prone to the love of disaster, presumably because it makes them feel important.
We're seeing some very depressing sides of human nature at the moment.
