Quintus 5090 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Exactly. There are all sorts of scenarios. Although I bet none of that wouldn't deter pro vacciners (Twitter kids) from guilt shaming anyone who doesn't conform to the collective demands of the know-it-all brigade.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6195 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I still want to take it. I'd take some of that Regeneron stuff as well, which seemed to be like speed when administered to a certain individual. At this point, if we're to be skeptical of a vaccine, are we just going to wait years to get on with anything resembling normal life? What do we wait for at that point? More vaccines? Hoping the virus will miraculously burn out? If that's the case, Herd Immunity it is, not continuing crippling shutdowns. Eventually, even the people with cushy office jobs from home will be affected by the trickle down effect of economic meltdown from everyone staying in the house and being terrified of not only the virus, but the vaccine.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6195 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 In California, the strip clubs have been open for some time, but Church and Disneyland (an employer of an estimated 30,000 people) have been declared illegal, with top officials dining and drinking maskless indoors while telling the little people they can't open their restaurants or do anything. One pastor even put on a faux strip show so they could legally worship. Time to move to Texas or Florida. Link to post Share on other sites

Quintus 5090 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 One of the manliest men I know (at work), as in he has a tough guy but jokey persona, is constantly complaining about other blokes around him not wearing their masks, like it really irritates him. He openly asks them, "where's your mask?" He'll say to me and the others, "what makes this dickhead so special?", while gesturing towards someone not wearing one. The chap asked me where my one was once, to which I replied "I'm outside and currently working in my own space." We have a large work environment with in and outdoor spaces. It was in my pocket. But my point is that sneering Vox essay thinks it knows everything about stupid problematic men (the entire sex), but it is so far up its own pontificating arse that it completely disregards all nuance. That's not to say I didn't recognise certain truths in there - the part about mens mask designs is amusingly accurate, and one can't deny that the delicate machismo of Trump wasn't massively disrupted by the prospect of a dainty cloth covering, but ffs it's not all as black and white simple as Vox tries to make it out to be. Still, the main thing I guess is that the author got a real assertive buzz from writing it, their shoulders broadened with smug satisfaction as the article went live.

Quintus 5090 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Again, it's not really practical to have such a rule in operation in a thread about a pandemic which has caused probably the biggest global political crises since WWII.

BLUMENKOHL 1044 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 I'm taking no sides on the politics. The dumb politicians who are now blaming their citizens for their own terrible mismanagement of this whole affair come from all across the political spectrum and are spread across the ranks of every country. From the Cuomos to the Trumps to the Faucis to the Macrons. These political players... Were against acute/short term lockdowns when lockdowns counted. Are now enforcing chronic lockdowns at a stage in the epidemic where control is not possible and the damage to the economy and psychological well-being of the people will be more harmful. Flouted common sense against mask-wearing when all eyes were on them claiming masks are only effective for healthcare workers (looking at you Dr. Fauci) when in fact we've known masks are cheap and harmless solutions that should have been used from the get go. Now they're gaslighting the public for mistrust in what they say. Hurr durr. Now that the vaccines are starting to roll out, they're undermining their credibility again by giving these pharmaceutical companies legal protection in case the shit hits the fan. What message is that sending to you and me? In 6 months they're going to come up with more new dictionary terms to pathologize us for having reasonable trepidation taking a brand new, fast-tracked vaccine where we have no legal recourse if harmed temporarily or permanently. This isn't political. It's about what happens when idiots are in charge. The idiots haven't a clue what they're doing. And the public is rightfully pissed and calling them out.

"Political" is such a broad term, and the Jay Dubya Fann bosses have never been specific in how they define it. Most folks here probably regard the term as partisan politics, left vs right, Democrats vs Republicans, etc. But that's only the superficial politics, and of course Jaycard hates that. But they also have a chip on their shoulders regarding controversy – I remember the day this rule was enacted, that big French church thingy burnt down, I made a comment criticising world leaders for donating foreign aid to rebuild the bloody thing instead of using that money to help, you know, poverty.

Covid is a NATURAL phemomenom - probably resulting from environmental degradation and climate change. Do we blame politicians for hurricanes?

And yet.... 99 percent of SF are wearing masks outdoors - all the time! If a person walking towards me sees that I'm maskless, they will often go out into the street to avoid walking past me. It is NOT possible to transmit/ contract the virus merely by passing by someone on.the street. Impossible. Even if both people are not masked and walk within inches of each other. Impossible! Not one person has contracted COVID outdoors who is at least six feet away from another person. Politicians are acting out of political concerns, not necessarily medical. Think for yourselves!
