Exactly! I had to leave that sub. It was just disappointing most can’t see. Unfortunately for me I live in Florida and so do most of my friends so i get to witness the meltdowns in my Instagram feed/stories. I just bite my tongue tho.

It must be interesting living in Florida, seeing what is going on and seeing how people from outside the state perceive your state.

yep but they don't mess with you. Just need to keep small dogs at a distance.

It's been something like that over the last 2 years. If a non-floridan listens to you news you'd think i was a death camp here with piles of bodies. In actuality it's been close to pre-covid normal for sometime now and everyone here is pretty happy.

I’ve heard people from Florida over the past two years saying that they weren’t doing too bad with Covid despite not locking down nor implementing mask or Covid mandates, although some cities did. And Florida has a large elderly population. There were still Covid-related deaths, but no worse than New York or other states with a comparable population. The state has also seen a lot of inward migration from other states. Which is probably why the media is saying a lot of negative things about Florida: the journalists want to move to Florida before the houses get too expensive.

All that is accurate. The media also shits on Florida because they hate Desantis too (while kissing Cuomos taint the whole time).

Cuomo put Covid patients in nursing homes. Even now the media is not talking about that.

My bf and I met one of his exes that lives in FL and even he thought florida was a death camp because of COVID.
