I know several people who are not anything but paranoia from over a year as the cnn types have hawked their fear to levels which have scared the common sense right out of them..and that is the only reason they drive alone with masks on

Uber driver..lol..keep making excuses ..some have become experts at that for this thing that can now get you cancelled and worse for speaking your mind about it

Eagler

[Puma44]

Nice red herring. Try again.

With regard to masks in cars, have you ever stopped and thought about why they're wearing it, rather than simply judging? What if it isn't their car? What if they're a Lyft/Uber driver? Or Uber Eats/Grubhub/Seamless? What if they're heading to/from picking up an elderly family member? Just because it doesn't make sense to you, doesn't mean it doesn't for them.

 

What if, what if, what if……….or, have you ever stopped and though that they were simply living in paranoid fear?

So now a private citizen is the same as someone who signed on the dotted line and sold their soul to the military?

Lol

This cough has truly changed the world and not for the better

Eagler

Of course he isn't- the private citizen isn't REQUIRED to take the vaccine, nor to work at a given job.  They absolutely have the right and ability to refuse to take the vaccine.  Conditions of employment do not equal "forced," or "tyranny."

Added - I expect that you aren't going to buy this argument because it requires the ability to use logic and critical thinking.  On the other hand, having read the rest of your post, specifically the "sold their soul" part, I find that I don't value your opinion enough to care.

For the previous 99 years (149 really), vaccines weren’t pushed by aggressive ad campaigns akin to used car sales commercials, they weren’t a part of an election year, and weren’t “sold” with the same intense fear factor; not to mention the odd timing of an election year.  The pysops aspect that has some so terrified that they drive around in their cars, by themselves, with the windows rolled up, with their mask(s) on is concerning.

These current vaccines are not even the same type of vaccine as the ones before. These are literally brand new technologies being implemented on a population who hasn't even done the research.

If seems no one watched the video Brooke posted. Even 2 of those doctors admitted to taking the vaccine before doing any research because they just "trusted" the medcial establishment. They were scared about what they learned and called out that establishment for malpractice. Even the VAERS website from the CDC shows more injury and deaths from this vaccine than ANY vaccine COMBINED in decades. We are at over 6,000 deaths now and that's a Conservative estimate.

I have over 30 studies and journals combined that suggests mask wearing really doesn't do much benefit, if at all. In some of the studies, not wearing a mask made doctors more effective. Amazing how the virus can escape a level 4 bio lab, Infect some of those doctors in full gear, yet a little paper thin mask is going to stop it? The same mask you've been wearing all week and haven't washed? Gross.

I watched a girl yesterday, eating outside by herself, smoke a cigarette after eating. Spitting a few times after puffing (gross). Then got up and put her mask on and walked away.... this is the level of lunacy we are dealing with.

Another fallacy, you're good at this.

Perhaps they are paranoid, perhaps they are not. Who are you to judge them? This is America, you are free to wear a mask in your car or not, get the COVID vaccine or not, drink or not, smoke or not.

I think the boomers need to stop worrying about everyone else's business and what people choose to do or not do.

[Spikes]

Even the VAERS website from the CDC shows more injury and deaths from this vaccine than ANY vaccine COMBINED in decades. We are at over 6,000 deaths now and that's a Conservative estimate.

VAERS submissions aren't really monitored and reports can be submitted by anyone. There is no verifiable way to determine the correlation between the vaccine and the COD.

[Eagler]

Boomers are tired of the ignorant/ strange - to say the least youth deciding what is right or wrong

will it become a vax/ no vax world..it's already become that if you want to do anything besides hide in your home

The controllers will tell you what each group can and can't do..they are already doing it

Wait until the economy takes a dump...which was all part of the cough

The best is yet to come!

I lol'd. How is the youth deciding what is right and wrong? The average age of the House is 57y/o, Senate 63y/o. Average age of state governors is 64-65. All the people doing the 'deciding'. Not very youthful.

Dunno what you're talking about regarding hiding in your home. NY, one of the most locked down states, is now wide open and realistically has been for some time.

🤦‍♂️

Have you something to say? Is some part of my post incorrect?

No judgement intended.  Just an observation.  Yes, we are free to choose.

But, I get it.  You’re the guy that’s never wrong and has to dominate the discussion. When you can’t come up with something credible to say, you resort to name calling and telling others what to do.

not sure what level of lunacy you are describing.  is smoking? eating outside? spitting? oh yes the mask, wearing one is lunacy.

and yet I bet she doesn't believe in q or reptilian canibalistic satanic forces. now this is normal to you.

Bahli in Sweden, recognizing the lack of evidence supporting the use of masks, ceased requiring them in 2010 for anesthesiologists and other non-scrubbed personnel in the operating room. “Our decision to no longer require routine surgical masks for personnel not scrubbed for surgery is a departure from common practice. But the evidence to support this practice does not exist,” wrote Dr. Eva Sellden.
