Technically placebos are historically the most efficacious treatments ever devised.

Then again most of human history has been pain management rather than true treatment.

The virtue signalling and religious social distancing is a coping mechanism for the failure of Democratic ideals it seems. They aren't willing to discuss what it means if the US economy crashes, or if we go trillions in debt and debase currency to "sustain" a system that only survives on consumer confidence; and so they don't confront it and instead wear their masks and call everyone that wants to open the country up a murderer.

I don't even care at this point because I see MAGA winning every step of the way regardless of how this plays out. The people screaming about "100 thousand dead!" don't give a shit about traffic accidents or work place accidents, and they aren't willing to pay more for slower more inconvenient air travel that is better for the environment, so fuck em and their solution which is sell breeders grand children into debt and cause a second Civil War.

How you know it is for show is that people are putting face masks on the avatars of their profiles. Why would they cover up a picture of their face except to show obedience to the new cult?

They used to sacrifice virgins over eclipses or volcano rumblings. Now we are enlightened and donate to Planned Parenthood because of Climate Change.
