The masking bait and switch is complete

4 out of the top 5 covid states are blue states. Then keep your mask on. Red states are dropping the mandates. Nothing you can sya here will change that. Too bad so sad

Great. I hope they beat the variants with vaccines before they blow up. Warm weather will help.

May I make a friendly suggestion?

Before you respond to a post, can you do two things, please?

1. Check if the post was addressed to you
2. In the event the post was not addressed to you (in this case, my post was not, in fact, addressed to you) can you please read the post(s) to which it WAS addressed before joining the conversation yourself?

If you do these two things, you will avoid many non sequitur responses of the type you just gave.

Thanks in advance!

When I start a thread, I reserve the right to comment to anyone who is participating in my thread. But as long as people are respectful to me, I will return the favor.

Won’t need force in that instance.

You’re incredibly optimistic. I’m certain that despite it being a deadly epidemic, that there would still be “freedom loving” people who would refuse to wear a face diaper, unless forced.

@altair1013

Do my reasons need to be justified? Explain why they should matter to anyone but me?

Yes. Explaining why your reasons have changed constantly over the last year is something you should be able to justify.

The second lie about me in just a few minutes. Figure out who you are confusing me with, then I will accept your apology. Of course there is always the option of you putting up some proof beyond your mindless babble.

Another option would be, and I really, really love this one. Is to spend more time commenting on the topic and less time commenting on people. Sound good to you?

But really, who would have thought being asked to wear a mask to prevent the spread of disease would anger so many people?

Who would have thought that so many people are so terrified they would hysterically demand I wear a mask to protect them. I am not asking anyone to protect me. Thanks for all the inconvenience of lock downs, closing businesses, standing in lines, inflation, no TP, soaps, and the stupid, ineffective masks, no school, online teaching, suicides, depression, and increased drug and alcohol use around me. You know how we react to our ancestors using leeches for healing? Then you can imagine how our descendants will be reacting to our behavior during a virus where over 98 percent of the population was not even at risk. We kill more infants in the womb that the virus kills outside it. Yeah, our descendants are going to be admiring us. /sarcasm.

Thank you!

You have had a year of government telling you how to protect yourself. And you also have a vaccine. We no longer need the government nanny “helping” us.

[Camp]

I am a ridiculous optimist.

In the case of Covid…It was obvious the entire time that the serious cases required serious comorbidities.

Our ancestors.

@Sknyluv

Our ancestors.

Were they forced by government to wear these masks even if they were not sick?

We never needed government “help”. It’s like no one ever had a bad virus…or, no one knows how to take care of him/herself.

That’s a whole lot of false information you packed into one paragraph.

What’s you best example? Specifics would help.

[Camp]

Was the problem the masking or the human packing?

Outdoors was probably OK anyway, unless yelling to each other and breathing in human exhaust.

@altair1013

Were they forced by government to wear these masks even if they were not sick?

No. Some chose to mask themselves for their own protection. They did not demand all wear masks because they wanted others to protect them.

Those damn freedom lovers are ending the mask mandates faster than you can say. “BIDEN SUCKS!”

For you blue state dwellers, by all means, wear your masks until Fauci tells you otherwise. Maybe they will allow you to have a 4th of July cookout. If you’re lucky. We’ll see. Enjoy!

Half a million people have died since you said it was over the first time

@JayJay

I guess I need to add a third thing you should do

Definitely!

By all means give me some more advice to ignore.

@altair1013

They should slow down and give the government a chance at a new money raiser: Government approved masks (a tax is included); or, people can elect to pay a fine (tax) in lieu of wearing a mask. Government is just trying to figure out how to tax people for breathing. This is kind of like Buttigieg wants to tax people by every mile they travel.

Yes, I am using sarcasm to opine that freedom loving people should not be put in a position to rally around government mandates; government should be rallying around freedom AT ALL TIMES for its citizens.

@Sknyluv

I’d respectively ask those upset about mandatory mask laws

You’re not asking.

I’m guessing you disagree with my excellent idea?
