I realize now what's so disturbing about this all, I mean more than it already was.
It's like three degrees of preemptive guilty. "No, YOU might not have symptoms*, but you might give it to another party goer who in turn might go to the store the next week and then give it to the cashier who will give it to her asthmatic daughter!"
*Nevermind the constantly-shifting determination on whether there's asymptomatic spread or not
The thing is, we're being forced to subscribe to these fucking Rube Goldberg machine-style, butterfly effect chains of causality being some inevitable consequence of not wearing the fucking mask. I'm sick of pretending it's anything else.
There are many, MANY things I do in the day that may eventually cause something bad. Maybe that guy I accidentally cut off on the highway was so flustered by what he thought was me being an asshole that he got into a wreck. Maybe that half-eaten sandwich I dumped in the trash got eaten by a homeless guy and turns out it was bacteria growing on it that killed him - if only I hadn't thrown away that sandwich!
My ex, who happens to be a cop, uses the same line of thinking. Anyone who doesn't wear a mask is now at fault if she gets sick, therefor masks should be mandatory. When I point out that anytime she gets behind the wheel she is putting others at risk, she dismisses it and says "that's different". It's infuriating.
Disturbing, but not surprising, to hear they're a cop. Definitely fits the kind of paranoid, hypochondriac delusion necessary to take the logic seriously enough to enforce it.
It's very bizarre, too. She is typically a sweetheart and certainly didn't give two shits about masks during H1N1, SARS, swine flu, bird flu, etc. But she's been brainwashed by the MSM and justifies it all by saying "the numbers don't lie". It just goes to show you how powerful they are.
MSM completely owns and controls around half of the US population. They could tell people to kill themselves to spite Trump, and there would be mass suicides
Funny enough, you know an alternate name for COVID-19? One I suspect the MSM refuses to use because it draws obvious parallels to something the world already dealt with?
They have put all of their energy into the masks. Initially the elites were, I think, a little bit unsure how to turn the Wuhan Flu into a divisive issue. There was all that “we are all in this together” gobbledygook, the sappy TV commercials, the general sense of concern for your fellow citizens. It was obviously all a set up for what was to come, but initially I think the way people unified around this kind of threw them off.
Then they hit on it. The masks. The masks were where they could divide us, just like they divide us on every other issue. Now the pandemic wasn’t about anything but the masks, and once the left had their new reason to hate the right, they were all in. At that point the masks became these magic talismans that protect people from all danger in the world, and anyone who didn’t submit to the mask, or questioned the nonsense, or pointed out the dangers of bacterial infections from breathing in your own waste all day, was deemed evil.
But notice what they don’t talk about in the midst of all this nonsense?
Phones.
They want every human face muzzled and they want everyone constantly sanitizing and resanitizing their hands, and yet what about the one thing that people are touching and tapping and smearing all day long that they never clean?
Their phones.
If this was a real pandemic, phone use should also be banned. Sure you might sanitize your hands. But then you touch a door handle. Then you touch your phone. Then you sanitize. Then you touch your phone. Then you touch the cup the fast food worker gave you. Then you touch your phone. Then you sanitize your hands. Then you touch your phone. Then you touch your steering wheel. Then you touch your phone. Then you sanitize your hands. Then you touch your phone.
The phones are not being sanitized. No one is even pointing that out or requesting it. There is no anti-phone mandates. Why? Because they want us on our phones. That is where much of the brainwashing is coming from so why would they ever do an anti-phone mandate. Why would they ever ban all phone use for 15 days to “slow the spread”? We all know that if our phones were looked at under a microscope they would be covered in germs. We all know that nobody is running their phones under hot water for twenty seconds or slathering them in disinfectant. And yet nothing in the media about our phones. Why? Because the pandemic is a hoax. If it were real, people would be keeping their phones at home so they never get contaminated. But is that what’s happening? Nope. People are walking down the street tapping away on their phones.

SARS? You mean SARS-COV-1?

SARS-COV-2
