Mm no answer so I assume you’re just joking.

Not at all. Let’s raise the level of discourse, you and I.

As soon as I see you over at those other threads saying the same thing- then absolutely!

WuWei · 2021-09-21T19:58:03.918Z

Might want to check that first one.

I think the theory is crazy but the part that hits home for me is that there is some truth to the idea that whatever a liberal is for, a conservative tends to be automatically against- and vice versa.

To the point when even the common sense idea of taking a vaccine to save ones life becomes a political football. This is where things have generally gone off the rails.

I don’t disagree.

It’s about mandates for me.

Orygun · 2021-09-21T20:18:59.482Z

I assume you’re ok with some mandates? Masking in hospitals and airports? Public school vaccine mandates?

Or maybe not I can’t remember.

No. I’m never ok with mandates. I begrudgingly admit some are necessary at times.

I dont really understand the difference?

The government does not exist to control me.

Sure but you’ll begrudgingly admit some mandates are necessary. So do I.

Short time. Emergency only. Not a default position.

Public school mandates? Military vaccine mandates? Both default.

I’m not. Centgov has no business mandating me.

Orygun · 2021-09-21T20:29:43.456Z

WuWei:

I’m not. Centgov has no business mandating me.

Sigh…so you have no opinion of any mandates that don’t personally affect you?

The government can control you during emergencies?

It’s really also why from teh get go, democrats took covid more seriously.

revisions to history?

while trump was shutting down travel to china nancy was telling people to go to china town, go to a theatre. cuomo was telling people to go out and eat, ride the subway. biden was calling shutting down travel from china xenophobic.

democrats didn’t get serious about covid until they saw political benefit

Do you have the quote of Biden calling the travel shut down xenophobic?

He did not.
However, the day after Trump announced that he was restricting Travel from communist China in order to reduce the flow of the virus to the United States, Biden said that hysteria and xenophobia were not the answer.
Many people, admittedly including myself, saw this statement as a reaction to Trump’s statement.
