Yes... I am doing this mic drop right before the holidays.
An overwhelming majority of people thought this was okay. At least 95% ( and that is being very generous - it's more like 99.5%) Team vaccinate, and team anti-vax were on the same losing team the whole time. But both teams were just filled with blind hatred, so everyone just sat around on their keyboards attacking everyone that tried to tell them the truth.
I mean, some rando guy came onto my blog and said I should be beaten and raped for simply begging people not to get sick. It is super funny now because it is so preposterous, but I was very offended at the time. And, I'm going to throw it out every three weeks because that guy still comes to my blog. Even more absurd.... after I blocked him he came back and doubled down that he was proud of being blocked. This is the behavior most people thought was okay.
Now our economy is completely ruined. The health of so many people are ruined. There is no more road for the can to be kicked. You are all fucked.
It was always an option to wait to get infected or vaccinated. But everyone had to run through that door yelling FIRSTIES all the while telling everyone else how stupid they were!
For context - I've been masking the whole entire time. I went across country TWICE. Spent three weeks with family in Ohio via New Mexico/Texas and Tennessee. Went to Oregon to visit friends. Masked the whole time. Even outside with a surgical. You can laugh all you want, but you should keep track of us. You will need our blood one day.
It isn't difficult. Ya'all made it difficult with that stupid shit about breathing your own exhaust. You know athletes train with masks to improve their performance. Right? I've even heard about peoples' COPD getting slightly better from mask use because it makes your lungs work a little harder. But you do you. I guess we are gong to keep living this Groundhog Day.
