Question: if you had to be in a close crowd of a hundred people or more would you prefer they were wearing a mask or prefer they are maskless?

I prefer they do whatever the F they want. If they’re that paranoid about the virus why are they around 100 other people when all a virus needs to get out is the tiniest of cracks in the mask? When did it become my job to protect you from your own fears?

You are right. They should not be in a crowd in the first place. However, many people are ignorant of the dangers or refuse believe there is a real pandemic so crowds still form. The virus spreads that way. Hence the spikes in deaths after Thanksgiving and Christmas. There will be a mini spike in deaths due to the Super Bowl. .

If the threat was that real then there would have been as much pearl clutching all of 2020 during the communist riots and the Biden celebrations. Instead we were inundated with excuse making and calling it bravery while cities burned during the communist riots. Selective outrage doesn’t help your false narrative that this is the Spanish Flu.

 

[G8trDad3]

There is no excuse for non-peaceful protests. Those inflicting damage or harm should go to jail. That is not the point of this thread. I do believe even communist Dr. Fauci cringed during the 2020 riots as much as the Trump rallies.

Even the peaceful ones had thousands of people crammed together. And still no dire warnings of covid outbreaks and death. Again, selective outrage exposes the political weaponizing of a virus that isn’t nearly as deadly as the narrative being pushed.

 

[G8trDad3]

What would you call a deadly disease if not this pandemic? How many deaths or how many people disabled would satisfy your definition?
Worldwide over 100 MILLION infections. Over 2.3 MILLION deaths. Of course some claim the deaths are over counted. So let’s say only 1 MILLION people died from the Covid in just the past year. In my practice I’ve had 10-15 patients die in the past few months because of Covid infection who would otherwise be alive today. In my book that is a real, significant disease.

 

[fsumc]

And there is where the road splits. Your definition of significance is probably a lower standard than someone else’s. But if you truly believed this pandemic is as significant as you say where was or is the outrage at the peaceful protests that erupted all over the country? Those thousands upon thousands of people in close proximity, no dire narrative from those events for an entire year. This virus is very significant to the most vulnerable in the population (elderly and preexisting conditions). It is not significant for people that are healthy. Again, not my job to damage my livelihood, ruin education for a generation of children, watch suicide rates sky rocket, domestic violence increase so people like you can play political football. It’s either serious enough to condemn all forms of gatherings or it’s not and your selective outrage and hypocrisy is further driving the divide in this country.

Maskless - if I’m worried than I should have stayed home. That simple!

I always get a kick out of ppl bringing up the death total as if it means anything. Lol. Tell me - how many die due to alcohol? How many of obesity? How about opioids?
Now tell me how we still sell alcohoL, Opioids, or fatty foods? I will wait

1. The virus is significant to everyone. The young and strong may not be “affected” but they sure spread the disease without knowing it.
2.it’s not my job to condemn one group or another. The media does what it wants. All I know is people I know have died; millions have died. Many young people I know have long lasting effects from the infection.
3. I don’t think shutting down the economy is the answer. Certain high risk activities such as movie theaters, restaurants, sporting events and, yes, churches are high risk for spread of the virus.
Thankfully it seems schools are fairing ok.

Yes you’re right. There may be a spike. But after an entire year of this, NO ONE is “ignorant” about the risks. If you’re in a crowd you are there by CHOICE and you’re assuming a known risk.

A million innocent people dead means nothing to you? I agree we need to do more for those epidemics as well.

FYI- did u run around with a mask during the flu? Nope. It’s a fact of life that you can die at anytime. Only one to blame for the China virus is Chi-Na! My rights don’t stop cause ur feelings are hurt or u may get sick. U want to wear a mask ( that doesn’t prevent u from getting the virus) than go ahead. But to force me to wear it and weaken and damage my immune system due to ur fears is bs! I’m responsible for me and u should be for u. If ur fat, old, or high health risk. Stay the heck home. No reason u should be out and then give healthy ppl like myself crap or call us insensitive. That’s bs!

Most of the protesters over the summer were wearing masks.

1) just a like a molehill is to a mountain. If ur high risk u stay home. Those who aren’t should continue living a healthy life.
2) everyone dies sometime, alcohol related, overdose, obesity. The world still turns. To change our freedoms for ur issues isn’t right or American.
3)U don’t support shutting down the economy but ur ok with tell those others to shut down and have their business close n bankrupt due to ur fears. Ridiculous. If I want to go to the movies, church, or sporting event. U shouldn’t be able to tell me otherwise. The vaccine will not stop the virus. It will be around just like the flu. As soon as the government stops rewarding hospitals for China virus cases we will see them slow down. Btw. Where did all those flu cases go ? Lol

1. Asymptotic spread isn’t a thing, your own university proved that. They didn’t spread it without knowing it, if they went out with symptoms they knowingly spread it. Just like if you leave the house with any flu like virus.
2. then why are you in here clutching your pearls about Super Bowlers when I’ve given you three opportunities to condemn the year long protests and Biden celebrations not too long ago? You’re really bad at trying to play the middle.
3. What about strip clubs? Why were strip clubs open but churches weren’t? What about protests? You seem to avoid condemning those. You’re being a hypocrite but that’s new for you.

You’re missing the point, when you say peaceful protests, his brain is wired to defend the peaceful protestors and condemn the violent protestors.

The fact that large groups of people congregated in a small space, ignored social distancing and some were not wearing masks flies over his head as MSM did not bring up the health risks of protesting during a pandemic due to controlling the narrative.

 

[fsumc]

Then why bother with a vaccine if a piece of cloth is all we need to be safe from a virus? Hell as long as we’re masked up pack Doak and The Swamp with 90,000+ and open up entirely. That mask doesn’t make you 100% safe from a virus. The fact some of you have the mentality these things on our faces are the same as wearing a rubber during sex is troubling. Thousands upon thousands of people clustered together isn’t preventing a virus by “most” mask wearers. If that was true why were mask mandated areas seeing an increase in cases? Because of the few non mask wearers? How come that logic doesn’t apply to Democrat events?

 

[G8trDad3]

I’m not saying there need to be mask laws. However there is no question masks prevent spread. The mask does little to protect the wearer. But it reduces the spread from someone who can spread it and not be symptomatic. Claiming you have a right to refuse to wear a mask is a selfish act. You put others at risk by not wearing a mask. And yes, we should all be stating home avoiding crowds. And no, the mask does not harm the mask wearer.

I mean I clarified and everything. He was given three opportunities to say “that was just as bad” but these government worshippers won’t condemn their own. And think the divide is everyone else’s fault because they’re too busy smelling their own farts to realize their hypocrisy is the problem.

Damn right I defend peaceful protests and condemn violent protests. And you?

 

[G8trDad3]

And no, masks are not the answer to the pandemic. Proper use buys time till the vaccine is in gear.

 

[BillCutting4585]

OMG! That’s not the point.

Just once, condemn ALL protestors for not social distancing and not wearing a mask. Then acknowledge that the protests were super spreader events.

Do you hate the University of Florida’s research team that showed asymptotic spread isn’t a thing? You are saying words that have been debunked by the science I keep getting lectured about. I’m not putting anyone at risk if I don’t have symptoms. You can wear your mask inside your car by yourself for all I care but stop advocating the demise of our economy and the harm you’re doing to kids with these over the top rules made up by politicians. If you’re that scared stay the hell home. It’s not my job to care for you. Protect yourself and stay away from me, I’m not going out of my way to protect you other than staying home if I feel sick.

Some of the best blinders I’ve ever seen... he condemns clusters of people unless it’s peacefully protesting while lecturing about the lethality of a virus spread among clusters of people and admitting masks aren’t enough in those situations. I’ve seen toddlers with more awareness and logic.

I thought that was what I was doing! We ALL need to wear masks in the appropriate settings. No doubt in my mind any of the protests could be super spreaders. There is no pass for protesting. There is no pass for crowding at a frat party. No pass for church.

Here is a good one. Would the SB be considered a super spreader event or a racist event if Tampa had a black QB instead of Tom Brady?

The narrative would be much different since our resident sheep only think the way they tell them to. Similar to masks, deaths, pandemic, vaccines, etc.?
