Yep. Another thing is, one of the main reasons they say we need to wear masks is because supposedly, all these people can spread covid while being asymptomatic. Not sure I buy that, and I'm not sure there's even any science that backs that up. In fact, one huge study came out fairly recently showing that asymptomatic spread was basically a non-issue. I believe the study was from China, so take that for what's it worth, but it included something like 10 million people.

Also, I know this is anecdotal, and I'm only a sample of one, but I went out to lunch with a co-worker a few weeks ago. We drove in the same car (maskless), ate together at a restaurant maskless, and then drove back to work. Her kid tested positive later that day, then her and the rest of her family popped positive in the following days. Supposedly, covid is super contagious, and being spread when people don't feel sick, yet I never caught it. Yeah, it kills people, but so do a lot of things, including the flu. The has got to be one of the most overblown, over-exaggerated things in the history of our existence.

Yeah, it's all insane. I'm even skeptical of people who test and claim to have gotten it because the PCR tests are so ridiculously unreliable. But everyone I know who has "gotten it" (and I do believe some of these cases are legit), every single one of them survived, most with only mild symptoms. Some got it worse and got really sick, but so what? I've gotten flus that made me feel like I was dying, that's just life. We never shut down the world over it before.

I never believed society as a whole was as gullible as 2020 revealed them to be, where common sense, logic, evidence or facts all stopped mattering. Everyone just went along without asking any questions or demanding any proof, surrendering not just their own freedoms but demanding others' freedoms as well, over what basically amounted to a big nothing "threat". It's just the stupidest thing I've ever seen.

Amen. Couldn't agree more. It'd be one thing if this were the Bubonic Plague, but it's not. Not by a long shot.
