Masks never really worked.

Social distancing never really worked.

Lysoling your strawberries sure as hell didn't work.

It was all theater designed to make people feel just a little less afraid and more in control.

It's like post 9/11 airport security. None of the extra security measure are really anymore effective than the ones pre 9/11, but it convinced people to fly again. So, they stayed around.

Of all the stupid shite that was foisted upon us, that had to be the dumbest.

It pretty much ensured that if someone was spreading the virus, then everyone behind that person would be exposed when that did not have to be the case.

Just as dumb as someone wearing gloves at the checkout line, as if the gloves weren't constantly being contaminated by everything the person wearing the gloves touched.

The massive amount of stupidity and lack of common sense on display during the COVID scare was more frightening to me than the disease.

Blame him all you want. The scary part is the stupidity of people who actually followed this advice. The fights people got in if they weren't on their 6 foot apart dot in the store, the literal meltdowns by people who wores masks against people who didn't. This country went bananas and only the smart ones realized it wasn't right. What's scary is the amount of people in all professions, of all ages, that followed his advice and didn't blink an eye. Its preposterous




What you saw was the Milgram Experiment on a global scale. I’ve said it before, but these are the same types of folks that Hitler convinced loading people on rail cars was a good thing.

Go look at some of the Rasmussen polls from during the Covid stuff. Something on the order of 60% of the people were in favor of taking away your rights/kids because you didn’t follow the “rules”.

Social distancing was my favorite part of the pandemic. I was sad to see it slowly fade away. Now, the trashy fricks are all back in my six foot bubble, and I'm back to wanting to throw elbows.

It was all so stupid
None of it made sense
Social distance
Wearing mask
What was considered essential
Cleaning your grocery
No symptoms is a symptom
Love ones dying alone
Forced vaccine
Etc

I see your Andy Beshear and raise you Gretchen Whitmer. She banned all types of vegetable and fruit seeds to be sold in stores

No, she didn't. I don't know how this continues, so long after, to be parroted when there are so many legitimate Covid response gripes to be had. This "news" about the seeds shite came out, yet people all over Michigan went out and......bought seeds, and filmed themselves doing it, to prove that bit of nonsense wrong. Crazy......for something that was "banned".

All the precautions taken were dumb. Any sensible person knew they were dumb when they were being implemented.

Fauci and the CDC had no clue what they were doing so im pretty sure they just watched that Matt Damon movie Contagion and said "sure, let's do that."


Even if we did save a few lives it wasn't worth destroying the global economy. I'm sorry but if you think your grandma's life is worth more than the entire economy and millions of peoples jobs and life savings then your selfish as frick.

I don't blame normal people as much as I blame media and the medical establishment for it. I remember MSNBC was doing stories about how they were planning to use Central Park for a mass gravesite and were pulling out pews from old churches to make coffins. It scared the crap out of the more gullible types and many of them have never recovered.

The medical people also put tens of thousands on ventilators unnecessarily, put COVID patients *into nursing homes* (seriously in NY and NJ they deliberately put covid patients into homes and wiped out entire floors of elderly all while repurposed convention centers with hundreds of beds were empty), never seemed to express any interest in finding treatments besides ventilators and waiting for a vaccine, and worst of all shredded their credibility by telling people to stay indoors but go outside to riot and protest and then go back to staying indoors. The whole thing was absurd.

My only blame on the public is that by the summer we could see the fatality rate was nowhere near what it was modeled to be and the panic should have ended, but it didn't.

Forbes Article About Whitmer Banning Seeds

Who to believe? A multi billion dollar outfit like Forbes or a poster named LegendInMyMind lol. Here's the published article for you to gnaw on, genius(inyourmind).

What's really going to suck is if we are ever hit with a legit biological attack, we blew our wad in this shite and nobody will want to comply in the face of a real and present danger.

OK. Now give us the scientific methods that provided the recommendation to give Remdisiver to CV patients admitted to an ICU and the recommended vent protocol for such patients.
