Covfefe-19 The 12th Part: The Only Thing Worse Than This New Board Is TrumpVirus2020

So once again if it comes from someone else it's a valid point. If this is your takeaway over what I have been saying you're simply not paying attention. Now please quote Handyman next.

And that's a better conclusion than calling people that are trying to have a discussion a cult. Got it.

Clearly you have your anti-mask position and have no interest in dealing with it other than not wearing one. And anyone who wants to help is part of a cult.

Good luck with that.
 
The message I'm hearing is basically...


"wahhh I don't like masks so wahhh"


Grow up and do what's right.

I have done what's right. I got the vaccine. And again I have already stated a specific issue with children wearing masks so take your bullshit elsewhere.

I honestly have no idea what you're talking about. There is no discussion. If you slightly disagree on something about this just look at some of the responses. Rufus for one. I also never said I haven't or won't wear a mask. But again, some of you struggle with what is being said if it's not exactly what you want to hear.

If you say so. For me, I've not read anything useful, other than you have issues with masks. And I just asked what that was given other people you see wearing them- you dismiss that as much as you think people are dismissing you.

Keep on the fight, I guess.. Certainly worth the effort.
 
No one who is saying "everyone should get vaccinated" and "everyone should be wearing masks" has every meant literally 100% everyone, to the extent they would ignore those who cannot do either for legitimate medical or special needs reasons. While both activities are helped by getting as close to 100% as possible, so every bit helps, both can still be very effective just short of 100%, so legitimate exceptions can of course be made. But the issue has never really been those legitimate exceptions; we would not be here talking about it if it was only that small fraction of a percent who held out from doing either. So we can drop that straw man.

And any sort of "people are just so darn tired of masks" excuse can be thrown off to. It doesn't matter what people are or are not tired of, it matters to what extent the virus and its variants are still spreading, how fast they are spreading, and if their spread is allowing for the development of further variants and overwhelming the available health care resources. If it is still doing all of those things, it doesn't matter how tired people are of masks, there is still a need for them (in combination with vaccinations and other measures). People have been saying they are tired of stuff from the first couple weeks of lockdown last year and looking for excuses to get out of it then, and frankly if they had not jumped the gun back then it all probably would have been under control much much sooner than it was.

Also, Jeb's mom has a dirty muff.

Your objections are noted and dismissed. I'm sorry you're frustrated - we all are - but that doesn't give license to shirk responsibilities just because you're over it.


Children where masks just fine. It's absolutely no different than adults wearing them.
 
Again, some of you just refuse to read what is actually written. No, not all children wear masks just fine.

Many autistic children have serious issues with wearing a face mask.
 
Ya, wearing a shirt and wearing a mask are entirely the same thing. Regardless of a mask mandate, I think some of you should just wear them for the rest of time.

And you wonder why people lash out at you and may not take your arguments seriously...

And all of a sudden the people who haven't complied will start to do so now? That is part of my issue.

No, they probably won't. Doesn't mean you don't make it a rule and you don't try to enforce it as well as you can. People still speed, it doesn't mean we get rid of speed limits.

What would you propose otherwise? If it's more vaccination and proof of vaccination for more things like you have mentioned earlier, no argument here. But with states showing no inclination to do so, how do you propose to get that enacted?
 
The all-inclusive "you"

And yeah, its entitlement and self-absorption, because your kids have trouble wearing masks, and its a hassle for you to keep straightening them out.

Tough titties.

If there was a finish line in sight I would feel differently. But when it's variant whack a mole, that leads to how I feel about the mask situation. I do not care if a stubborn anti vaxxer gets sick.

As for vaccination, I don't know how to enact it. I am just stating we should explore every way to push that. Maybe even give employers an incentive to require it. I don't a detailed plan other than we should be going for it.

My point is, close to the finish line or not doesn't really matter. If it's still a problem, we need to be using all tools at our disposal. How annoyed we are or not at various variants pushing the finish line further than we originally hoped has no affect on the situation, and should not factor in to our decisions on which approaches we apply. And as much as we want to say let the anti-vaxxer-anti-maskers catch it and die, we still live in a world where they can let is fester and develop and spread to the rest of us, so we can't ignore them completely, as much as we would like to cast them aside and let what happens happen (and boy would we ever).

I don't think anyone here (other than the micropenis troll) disagrees with you on that.
 
People lash out because I am not in lockstep. It impacts their ability to read what is being said. Oh and fuck off (just trying to fit in).

Yeah...that's not it...but you do you...

it won't come from blanket state mandates, but employers are starting to mandate and I think more will come. Already we see pretty big names like Tyson Foods, United Airlines, Microsoft and others. More will follow soon i'm sure. As soon as there is full FDA approval, I would think it is safe to assume this will be on the list of required vaccines for attending public schools.

It will also happen by making life more inconvenient for those not vaccinated (see NYC and gyms, shows etc).
