So last year it was Political to wear masks and limit indoor dining etc.. to hurt Trump. This year its Political to wear masks and limit indoor dining etc.. to ... *checks notes* help Biden.

And now you understand the mindset of the politard!

Again, people who don't do something because of politics are every bit the same sheep as those who do.

I KNOW, I KNOW. Fake news.


But LOL...this country is incredibly dumb.

I'm sure this is also happening in Ohio. My dad was just in my hometown, SE, Ohio. None is his friends are vaccinated. All 60+, some with health issues.

My very conservative Facebook friend said they weren’t going to be made to get a vaccine by the government meanwhile illegal immigrants are coming into the country spreading the virus and no one cares! So that was the first I’d heard those two linked together. Now we’re not getting the vaccine because of the damn immigrants!

I think the point was "you don't care that illegals aren't vaccinated, so stop nagging me about it"

It's been fun watching both sides simultaneously hold conflicting views because most "wedge" issues are based on little more than grandstanding bullshit.  You should have an ID to vote!!!  Vaccine passports infringe on muhrights!!!

DC arbitrarily going back to masks indoors for everyone over 2 (also an arbitrary number). Supposedly since June there has been less than 15 deaths dude to Covid. So much sciencing. Seems like the opposite way of getting people to get the vaccine.

He has no clue  he just heard someone else say it before. That’s how echo chambers work.

Yeah, but, looking like it's all heading off the rails again.

Pfizer claiming the vaccine appears to weaken after 6 months.  Vaccinated people may be spreading just as much viral load as unvaccinated.  More and more vaccinated people are catching the delta variant....

Mask mandates in the works as we speak.  I'm guessing we'll have some sort of additional restrictions, again, when this starts surging in the fall.  And then a few months later mass govt panic when over half of people refuse a third shot...

Some of the money has led right to my mailbox.  I just received a pro-rated child tax credit check that I did not ask for, didn't want and didn't apply for.  So in that case the money is leading to me.  But to my knowledge, I have not successfully implemented any of my own decisions into this pandemic madness.  What gives?

Apparently, you are so far entrenched in the DEEP STATE that you haven't even realized it yet, you monster!

new "incentives" for people to get the vaccine...Ummm, it's kind of hard to come up with a bigger incentive than "risk of death".

$100 for getting vaccinated?  OK, that might work.  But this is classic strategy/negotiations - once you reward holdouts, you get MORE holdouts.

If I were king, there'd be a standing offer of $5,000 cash, plus medical costs for anyone who wanted to get sterilized.

I am not so concerned about where the money leads to but how it is generated.  Is it compelled by law or willingly given.

What a shit show that press conference was for Biden. It only took him less than 3 months to go back on his word in the name of “evolving science.”


As predicted by myself and others when this first started, there is more goal post moving (shout out to boogie’s favorite phrase) 18 months later.  A lot of dumbasses (including some posters here) continue to fall for it.  

Guise, if we just keep listening to them and remain disciplined for (insert number) months this will be all over!!! 

I’ll keep repeating myself, if you are for any covid restrictions at this point, you can go fuck yourself.  The vaccine is available for anybody. Make your own personal life decisions, stfu, and mind your own business when it comes to everyone else’s lives.

7 gram rocks. how i roll.

so if the CDC's comments (that vaccinated people have the same viral load as unvaccinated people, regarding Delta) then we are fucked. you've essentially given unlimited ammo to the anti-vax crowd, you've further (shockingly) reduced your credibility as a health and science organization, and made it more and more apparent that the whole thing is a power and money grab to secure funding for pet projects and mass surveillance (in the name of public health). 

the response to this news is pivotal in how we move forward. because the only thing we have going for us at this point is the relatively low (although i get it, higher than seasonal flu) mortality rate of this virus. we've got to hand it to the gain of function research crew. they've got a real good product.

The CDC has no clue what to do because the NIH and Fauci has lied about this so much that nothing is true .


We are locking back down for .0003% of this country.
