You have a major case of Stockholm Syndrome. The MSM has abused the ever loving frick out of you for your entire life, and you love them more than ever. You will believe literally anything they tell you to and march to their orders obediently.

Let me ask you a question and be completely honest; If they told you to report on your neighbors who weren't complying w/ mask mandates in 2020-2021, you would have done exactly that, right

No, because i didnt wear a mask anywhere that it wasnt required to enter and enforced.

You guys come up with some weird shite in your head. I woulda invited my neighbors over to have drinks and hang out wit the rest of my friends if i knew some that were cool. I had covid very early on so i wasnt worried about getting it again.

"Two weeks to stop the spread" was the beginning of a lof of shitty fake propaganda.

I remember my gym said it was going to reopen in mid-May, but a bunch of Karens on Facebook freaked out, literally calling our gym "murderers" and they backtracked and didn't open until the summer.

That's honestly the most heated I've been in awhile. I (like many others) was chomping at the bits to get back in the gym and exercise with real equipment, but because some people were scared of Covid they had to ruin it for the rest of us.

I don't care if someone wants to live in fear for the rest of their life, but don't prevent me from doing something healthy like working out. If you don't want to go to the gym, don't go or cancel your membership.

And nevermind the fact we had a big fat orange clown "leading" the country while this hit, clearly downplaying things in order to help his case for reelection.


And there it is. Selective memory must suck.

Trump downplayed the virus by [checks notes] conducting daily media updates alongside Fauci, deploying mercy ships to NY and CA, making GM and Ford manufacture ventilators, and initiating Operation Warp Speed (bad move IMO).

Here's a pretty funny trip down memory lane for you to enjoy. It's laugh out loud funny reading his words, hearing his voice, the constant lying. Funny stuff.

The dipshits in here talking about "I never took any precautions" are exactly that, dipshits. They can pretend they knew what was going on, but they didn't. No one did. If you weren't trying to protect yourself and your family those first couple months you were indisputably irresponsible.


I took reasonable precautions. Made sure I wore a mask around my grandparents and other elderly family members but I didn't mask on the golf course and I didn't just avoid my 90 year old grandparents that I didn't have much time left with anyway. I tried not to fly unless I had to but I didn't sit inside scared to death. Life didn't change much for the people that have critical thinking skills.

It feels like it's been longer than 5 years.

I was at a game on the weekend before the Big Ten men's tournament. At that point the Honkus Saga was the only thing related to Covid that I had really paid attention to. With the shutdown the off-court stuff from the game was seared into my memory. People leaving the arena like a herd of cattle, people sharing tables with those not in their party in the club level, and generally nobody was acting the way they were a week later. It was the last normal event I attended.

Then came the hoarding. The day before the lockdown I went into Meijer and saw open shelves that I had never seen open before. Toilet paper gone. Bleach spray gone (baby wipes was the only remaining item in the aisle). And people scurrying around like the world as ending. We were at the range when they announced the lockdown and we stopped shooting our 9mm and 30.06 ammo when my wife called to tell me.

Did anything ever come out about the fans in the Utah arena that night? IIRC Gobert gave it to a few of his teammates.

I said earlier today that Covid revealed we are a nation of pussies.
