A Rural Texas COVID Cemetery Joke

“The blackest land, the whitest corpses.”

As a white Texas male over 65 years of age, the “conservative” thought-patterns about COVID bothers me. How in HELL can that many people be that (censored) stupid?!

1. I dunno. And I'm getting too old to escape, dammit.

2. I use to smile thinking about Texas.

My uncle was an E-9 at Lackland I think it was. He dropped dead a year after retirement. He did have three wives in his life. Texas makes it hard to have that smile again lately. Soon Texas will join the blue I hope. People are noticing things more. I never thought I would see Georgia blue so?

4. We used to be blue.

Bush was the first republican governor.

Bill Hobby was Lt. Gov for 18 years.

I met him to.

6. Actually, Bill Clements was

And despite the fact that Clements was pretty conservative, he wasn’t as psycho as some of the R’s we started getting later.

As a matter of fact, I had a schoolmate who used to work for him. My schoolmate said that he was very disappointed with Rick Perry and what we got afterwards.

7. Bill Hobby was there for a long time

Hard to hide imagine now.

I voted him at early voting.

He came to my computer and saw my name tag and he knew my Father.

A real Texas giant there, his mother also.

5. Dallas, actually, although

I had heard about that segregation-era billboard.

I wonder if Dan Patrick has the smarts to catch the reference?

8. How many will die of Covid?

Seriously, I wish one of the demographics of fatalities was broken up among voting history

9. We'll find out

My first post was made as dark humor, based on less-educated white people’s susceptibility to anti-vaccination propaganda and an old segregation-era sign that used to be posted outside certain small Texas towns.

My OP was a joke, a bleak joke, and not an attempt at scientific analysis. We’ll find out how many people will die between now and when the pandemic abates and guess what their voting patterns were sometime after the COVID casualties are sealed in their coffins and are buried or cremated.
