I will however contest the validity of the excess cancer death claim. The cited paper merely suggests a model and one created for England rather than Germany. And that model estimates a 1 year excess death from 7 K up to 17 K. Furthermore they are merely making a prediction and an estimation and not quoting actual realized deaths.
While I give credence to various non-covid causes of deaths rising, I found no such data that suggests that 40 K excess cancer deaths have already occurred in Germany. In fact, the data from Germany suggests that non covid related deaths in Germany declined. From March 2020 to Feb 2021, Germany saw 65.1 K covid deaths; however, total excess deaths was only 63.7 K. Without direct covid deaths, excess deaths was -1. 4 K in Germany. With this info, it's hard to rationalize a scenario in which an extra 40 K people in Germany died due to inadequate treatment cancer.

Germany is not alone with Covid deaths outpacing excess death. UK, Sweden, France, Luxembourg, Denmark, Belgium, Japan, South Korea, Norway, Australia, and many others show the same trend. All point to the observation that deaths from other causes in those nations have actually decreased.
Now, looking at other nations, the contrary can be deducted to be more prevalent. But one would have to entertain the fact that nations like Russia saw 425 K excess deaths but only 75 K covid deaths. Or that Mexico only saw 100 K covid deaths but 300 K excess deaths. But how much do you trust data from Russia or developing countries?

Posts: 796I don't think governments have all the numbers. Not by far. For example, I have read that in addition to the 80 K direct covid-deaths in Germany, there is an additional 40 K of deaths, because of delayed cancer treatments, and also delayed cancer diagnosis.
Just for cancer!! (here some indication of this https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/10/11/e043828).
About 200 K babies didn't see even the light of day, because covid drove people (in Germany. And I am sure it is not alone) not to get any babies.

1. Just a dork that annoys well-adjusted people in social situations. The animosity towards the institutions that rejects him prompts him to in turn reject anything within social norms, directing him to proclaim insightful knowledge to which he is selectively privy. If contributing factors go unaddressed, will not be able to rule out progression into the next case:
2. High likelihood of a personality disorder with deep rooted defense mechanisms such as selective memory and delusions of grandeur. Viewpoints, self image, and stated behaviors show signs of long term psychosis. The repetitive declarations of amazing feats suggest weaknesses in the defense mechanisms by demonstrating a need for constant self-reassurance.
3. All views can be traced to political bias, consistently arguing positions routinely aligned with the social views of a particular political platform.
Bonus commonality: above problems stem from a lack of love and reassurance from peers.

Posts: 2207So, no sources?
I have another interesting number for you:
100 % of the weirdos living in a fantasy world serial posting on ISG:
A. are bored at work or unemployed.
B. Suffer from some severe psychological troubles (paranoia, delusions of grandeur, mythomania).
See. Have a strong tendency to engage in totally fucked up theories just to comfort themselves in thinking they are some kind of free thinking mavericks.
D. Have strictly no clue of what they're talking about.
In the worst cases, you can combine the 4 factors.
