It has been bullshit from the very beginning. Everything. It was continuous fearmongering and an assault on our liberties. We let our guard down "just this one time" and now we can say bye to our liberties forever.
Governments all over the world just set the precedent that they can allow themselves to shut down businesses and mandate whatever the fuck they want in the name of "science" and any cooked up crisis.
It is BS. This mask stuff. My sons are both in school and it is mandatory they wear masks now. When I picked up my younger son, he had a bad runny nose and trouble breathing because he had to wear a mask covering his face for so long. This is not healthy! Healthy people should not be masking up for hours everyday. These fuckers are trying to create other health problems.
I believe true authoritarianism and submission expresses itself by following demands especially when they are pointless. When insanity becomes "the new normal."
It’s worth pointing out that in the image, they are outside and she is likely well and far away from the couple, even if the focus makes it appear as if they are close. This means she would be considered a safe distance outdoors and a mask wouldn’t be needed
This is exactly why I’m so angry at Greg Abbott. There was a brief window of opportunity for Texas to lead the charge against this bullshit, but Abbott caved and shut down. Then he caved again by a second shutdown. Then he caved again with his statewide mask EO. Weak.
He’s not running again. Rick Perry is one of the only Texas Governors to serve more than two terms. Texas GOP sent a very strong signal by electing Alan West as the chair. Abbott is finished.
This is why I love Brian Kemp, Governor of Georgia. He did cave to pressure from liberal mayors and shut down our state for 3 weeks. After that, he came back strong. Opened it all back up in the face of serious commie mayor opposition. He has declared that mask mandates are unenforceable.
Rogan podcast with Adam curry was pretty good. Curry talks about how china is in every market in America. What happened to all the people that just dropped dead on Chinese video, you haven't seen that since then. The propaganda the Chinese used to shut down our economy. Everyone thought it was the plague an apocalypse. There's been no videos of people dropping dead. China owns hollywood, pro sports, reddit, half of everything sold in america and are involved in almost every market in America other than food and cars
Yes, I thought about that as well recently. The people dropping dead in China footages - they were no coincidence. That was powerful propaganda. Everything was a setup to deceive even more skeptical people like us.
Instead of contemplating whether that was staged, we thought about how the severity of the virus was downplayed (which our media did until what, March?).
We played right into their hands. Not that it had to be for a long time - in April I already knew it was a relatively mind virus. But the narrative has been established and we, those who should have been doubtful were effectively fooled and demoralized to stand up for our liberties.
They try to shame us by accusing us of not caring for others. I am sick of it. I read that after the 1918 Spanish Flu, the masks finally went away because the people rebelled against them. We need to do the same.
after reading that shity sign with such a level of pandering i get you, the way libtards talk to each other stinks to slavery and indoctrination

And all of it is 100% pointless.

We have a mask mandate in our state. Even private schools have to wear a mask.

I hope he gets primaried in 2 years.

I contend that Texas had the opportunity to lead in NOT shutting down, had we held firm other states including surely GA would have followed suit.
HUGE disappointment
The rare Phish pede appears...
same, very disappointed. He had the opportunity to just ride it out and let this nonsense end but he caved.

I was thinking how much I wanted to go stand by the sign without a mask.
Better yet, place a Trump 2020 sign in front of it, and cough on it while mask-less.
They're tactics an abuser would use. Bullying, shaming, gaslighting, etc.

This has been my experience. One day, places just stopped letting me in. And yes, it's because the governor has been sending goon squads.
