How did 250k covid deaths result in 300k excess deaths?
Makes no sense.
Surely, given the age and health of those dying with Covid, some of those 250k would have died anyway.
Let's say 50k would have (actual number much higher no doubt).
Then you would have 200k excess deaths.

I missed the "plague clause" in the Bill of Rights.
You don’t have a right to kill other people. Just sayin!
How do you even leave the house each day?

You're doing an excellent job of missing the point. If we are never allowed to be disappointed about something because there is something worse going on in the world, we will never be allowed to be disappointed by anything. It's why the 'first world problems' meme ended up being so hated.
The reactionary response to the "first world problems" meme was swift and violent indeed. One of the most important political movements of our time.

Wow you are an idiot!
I'd rather be in my position in life and be an idiot than be in yours and an absolute puss.

He doesn't, duh
I support all the public health measures to slow and stop the spread of Covid-19. The disease isn't a joke. Asphyxiating over a month and dying alone on a ventilator with an untreatable disease is a horrible fate.
But I also think it's perfectly normal and human to recognize the cost of fighting the disease. Kids are losing the only senior season they'll ever get. That sucks. Not seeing your parents/kids/grandparents for a year sucks. Don't minimize the sacrifices people make - willingly - to keep other people safe.

People are over in the NYTimes comments are falling all over themselves in sorrow because of a story about an 88 year-old guy with Alzheimer's in a nursing home in Wisconsin who got Covid and died.
If an 88 year-old with Alzheimer's dying in a nursing home is a tragedy that brings you to tears, you must spend A LOT of time crying.

Right on brother!!
if you love throwing grenades on the freeway just for kicks,
if you Iove driving drunk on the freeway with your eyes closed,
if you love lighting forest fires,
America is the place for you!!!!
Your sense of safety doesn't overide my constitutional freedoms!!
So refreshing when the covid deniers just come out and be honest and out themselves as pure psychopaths.
'who cares why 300,000 people died......I wanna have muh turkey dinner!'

"Excess deaths" are a wholly mythical number without any citation of a "normal" baseline.

lol.....wut?
so you don't realize that there is an established baseline and that we are going to exceed it by 300k this year?

There's no "established baseline" cited on any of the "excess death" charts I can find, probably because it was pulled out of someone's butt.

It is a bit reassuring that the only Covid deniers left are the extremely dull turds.

So there's been "excess deaths" nearly every week since 2017?

HINT:
orange line: threshold for excess deaths....above orange is excess
red plus sign: added to the top of those weeks where it was above the orange line so you don't miss them.
