I am going to be SUPER PISSED if mask mandates come back.

I’m running out of patience with anti-vaxxers. If I have to put a mask back on because of you, I’m going to flip TF out.

I don't understand folks like you. I live in a city in Spain. Spain has passed the US in terms of percentage of population that is vaccinated (

). Here we are not required to wear masks when out on the street, although we are required to do so in public transport and in stores. Yet (I counted several hundred people while out on a run) more than 3/4 of people wear a mask out on the street, even when apparently out for a walk in the park. It's just not such a big deal. General opinion seems to be if it might help do it. It's an all in this together attitude that seems to have been lost in the US. My grandfather's generation, the WW II one, they thought that way.

But now it's a generation of please hold the mustard, ketchup, pickles, onions, and beef on my hamburger, and with organic lettuce please.

Millions have made it through the pandemic without getting sick.

Basic logical fallacy.

Millions of people survived WW II. Must not have been a big deal.

How so?

I have not been sick.

Nobody I am in contact with on a regular basis has been sick.

How am I to blame for the bosses putting in an other mask mandate?

How am I to blame for creating variants?

Time to wake up and see who the enemy is

I have not been sick. You may however have been a carrier of the virus, and may have communicated it to others without knowing it.

Nobody I am in contact with on a regular basis has been sick. This seems nearly impossible and suggests you aren't paying attention or you don't leave your mother's basement with sufficient frequency.

How am I to blame for creating variants? The unvaccinated, asymptomatic carriers and spreaders are key in this process.

WE NEED TO SHOOT ALL NON VAXXED PEOPLE ON SIGHT!!!! KILL THE DISEASE SPREADING VERMIN, THEY ARE KILLING OUR KIDS AND GRANDPARENTS!!!!!

This is quite a partonizing point of view. Perhaps what sows the distrust is the long experience of living in a society that institutionalizes segregation and discrimination. Very few black people are unaware of the Tuskegee Experiments. It doesn't take white liberals to bring things like that to their attention. They do just fine on their own.

The WWII-generation that was ruled under by a fascist dictatorshi? Real convincing. Yeah, that's exactly the reason why Americans don't just blindly do what the government tells us to do, even under the guise of collectivist notions such as "we're all in this together." If there was definitive proof that masks did work, then people would be wearing them, including me. But there isn't, so many people don't. Many people don't blindly follow stupid rules just to show others that they're part of the tribe.

So because one experiment, that wouldn't ever be legal or approved under today's ethical guidelines, occurred almost 90 years ago that means black people shouldn't trust the healthcare system enough to get a vaccine? Or is it the current wave of ideology spreading throughout every cultural medium (such as education, the media, the entertainment industry) that "Whiteness" pervades every institution in the US (including the healthcare system) and is designed to subjugate black people that is causing distrust? Sorry, no, the current strain of CRT being spread right now is meant to deliberately cause distrust in white people and "whiteness" by POC, and you reap what you sow. You can try and blame it on a single experiment that occurred in the 1930's as to why large % of the black population don't want to take your beloved shot, but you would just be spinning your wheels.

"...and the universe replied:

'The fact, Sir, creates in me no sense of obligation'"

How? Isn't it far more likely that the vaccines would cause variants? By the way, the word is now if you get vaxxed you can still get the virus and still pass it o.

The forever pandemic.

This is an interesting take considering that if Boomers weren’t dying left and right of this disease it would be a much smaller issue.

You should be grateful we care about you all enough to take mitigation efforts (although masking in high vaxxed areas seems like a less than efficient idea unless cases get really high in your community).

I thought I was a single issue poster but you take the cake.

I suspect you spend ALL DAY in angst about race. It’s really illuminating. Every post of yours has a racial element. It’s an obsession.
