I would like to see measles, polio, and bird flu (preferably, in that order) spread through members of the executive branch (and those appointed by such) and the oligarchy. I see no concern there.

While it would be awesome in the short term, it increases the chances of it continuing to spread and affect non-shitty people.

Why is the first idea of these morons to let whatever disease spread? It's unfortunate we have these people in charge

Cull the poors and keep them too sick/afraid to fight back.

Don’t mistake for malice what can easily be explained with stupidity and malice.

"Do nothing" is their answer. "Tear it down" is their message. :/

People were talking about chinese wet markets before. Under trump, they will talk of deadly pandemics on an industrial scale. The trump plague will be more lethal and biglier.
