    I can imagine wearing a mask for 40 hours a week sucks dick. Sorry you have to deal with that, genuinely.

    Mask wearing is one of the things that has shown to slow the virus' spread in other countries. Nobody likes them, but not taking any precautions and letting the virus run its course is not a coherent solution. We don't know when an effective vaccine will be available and regardless of what you think of the virus itself another shutdown will occur.

    Wearing a mask sucks, nobody likes it, but sacrificing a little bit of freedom to prevent losing a lot of freedom is a fine sacrifice.

    This isn't science. Its an opinion.

    And its bullshit

    Look at the original rationale and the actual evidence

    It's a virus. A virus we have no vaccine for. A virus that is pretty communicable. It won't disappear if we stay inside. Lots of people have tested positive. Lots of people will get sick. Lots of people will recover. Lots more people will test positive. Some more people will die. If you are an "at risk" individual, stay the fuck home or take great precautions when you go out. Why shut everything down again? When they come up with a vaccine and only 20% of Americans take it, the media will relax and just report the annual 100K Covid deaths alongside the 70K flu deaths and the umpteenth heart disease deaths and so on and so on.







    You guys act like our miserable failure in controlling the virus was inevitable.

    We didn't need the first shut down

    What you think we need didn't matter then and ain't gonna fucking matter now.
    Do you want another shutdown or no?
    Not a fan of Miranda Rights & due process I take it.

    Hands behind your back, face on the pavement.

    Wear the fucking mask.

    I don't want another fucking shutdown because people won't wear a mask to the grocery store for 20 minutes.

    Retail workers and servers have to wear masks for hours on end right now (not to mention construction workers and doctors where it's the norm), stop being a fucking wussy.

    No. Fuck off with what you want.

    Retail workers and servers wear masks because their establishments are licensed by the state. The basement dwelling bureaucrats are goosestepping for their paychecks to 'enforce' state mandates. So the restaurants and stores play the game.

    The Throbber's existence is not licensed by the state.
