Goddammit, this makes me so angry. My mother literally died of it. People are still dying. And you put people at risk who you knew couldn't say no to you. Fuck you.

*hugs*
I lost my grandpa and mother in law to covid. This was such a shitty thing for her to do/say.

Its the worst, isn't it? *hugs back*

To say "they all risked their lives" no YOU risked their lives. YOU did. YOU are the millionaire here. Uugghhhhhhhhh

I would probably slap someone across the face if they said this to me irl.

That's not the flex you think it is, Gaga.

huge arsehole move

Doesn’t she already deal with a chronic illness? Risking long term damage or even just exacerbating that… In the absence of decent ventilation or any other mitigations, touring musicians are almost guaranteed to lose COVID roulette. Just constantly hot boxing every respiratory illness circulating.

Right. You’d think maybe she would understand the importance of protecting others’ immune systems but I guess not.

I had long Covid nearly 3 years to the point I thought I had chronic fatigue syndrome. I lost so much because I couldn’t get out of bed.

She can go fuck herself. Just another time a rich fuck shows they don’t care cause when she’s sick she has all the money in the world and access to the best doctors.

Yep. But she's not the first person I've seen with a chronic illness decide that covid isn't serious and just go back to regular life with no mitigations.
