Isnt it funny how quickly covid turned into a political issue? I mean just look to states that lift the mask mandates. Liberals say they keeping the mask. They feel secure not showing their faces. Others say they dont want people to think they are conservative. LOL. Just like i said at the beginning the masks are political only. Showing you submit to the transition to communism. .
Dont agree with the masks, right wing nut job.
Dont think police state lockdowns are the right way to go, right wing nut job.
A bit skeptical about this spike protein shot that you are forbidden to discuss in public? Right wing nut job.
I look at it this way, if someone wants to call me names like right winger nut job, or anti vaxxer, etc. Oh fucking well.. Seems like that stands more for free thinker, leader not follower, self sustained working for what you need/have.
Now, if someone called me a liberal, then i would question the way i am living.
I have never followed trends. Never went along to get along. Never felt i needed to be part of the herd. So many people are just so scared some cry babies will call them names and shout them down for having opposing opinions. Lucky for me i couldnt care less.
I am finding that if you don't get the vaccine, and you are not happy with the way the lock downs are being handled, no one thinks you are a conspirist anymore. They are slowly waking up. There is a silent majority now I believe.
I get no shit when I tell everyone I'm not getting the vaccine. I usually put it this way.
"Since the vaccine doesn't stop you from spreading the virus, and I'm in really good health, I think I will take my chances with covid. It is a risk benefit ratio. If I was really old, or sickly, then maybe I'd take it." Then I state until they have figured out what they are doing, I wouldn't take it, would you get medication from a doctor then take it how you want? no, well that is pretty much what they are doing with the vaccine.
As far as the mask, it made things so much easier at work with customers. Once they put on the mask, social distancing became a thing of the past. People felt more secure.
Was it pretty much stupid, you bet, they were not used properly and likely only reduced transmission in normal public settings by like 5%. In the two meat plants my uncle ran, they made a big difference, but the staff were trained to use them properly and they threw them out on their breaks and wore new ones. over 2000 employees and they didn't have a single outbreak, where every other meat plant in Alberta had to close because of out breaks. But the average untrained person, they didn't really do shit.
But like I said, it made work so much easier. When everyone was paranoid to get near each other it was a huge PITA. So if I had to choose 6 feet or mask, well mask it is. But I'm not trying to change your mind, just explaining why I am dealing with the mask. But god I can't wait till I don't have to wear the face diaper anymore, lol.
