Here's your Mask Protocol

[Shasarak]

So, if you are a complete sociopath you might question whether or not you need to wear one, but otherwise it is obvious you should.

I'm not interested in humoring those afflicted with hypochondriasis. 
Two can play diagnose the mental illness game. :-/

You are mindless goof if you believe it makes you a hypochondriac to wear a mask around other people after a year in which ~600,000 americans died of a novel virus spread through air droplets.

I heard that it was 100 million dead.

Presumably that's intended as some sort of snarky joke.

Come on, man.

Presumably that's intended as some sort of snarky joke. Assuming that's so, you're engaged in one of the weirder acts of modern performative nihilism. The denial of Covid deaths comes from a different motivation from holocaust denial, but the two share the same intellectual pedigree. They are the realm of people with malignant personality disorders, and dipshits who believe the nonsense they make up.

I did naht zee what you did there.

[Brad]

So you're not only a sociopath if you thinking wearing a mask doesn't do anything, you're also a holocaust denier if you think the Chinavirus death count is inflated.

And I'm supposed to take this line of "reasoning" seriously?

who cares if you do or don't, what's the impact

C'mon man!

Why would the count be inflated...

It isn't like they

1) Attributed a death to Covid-19 to anyone who displayed symptoms of the common cold.
2) Used a test that wasn't really designed to detect Covid to find it by increasing the 'gain' until the 'background noise' was so high the test registered as a positive result.
3) Cut the hospital's revenue to near 0 by shutting down elective procedures and then offering a financial incentive for Covid-19 patients.

oh wait...

But, hey at least the Flu didn't really hit last year...

[This Guy]

goddamn would it have been handy or what if the disease like, made you grow hives on your dick as a symptom or turn your shit red? i mean just how much less arguing would there be if there'd been some obvious gross symptom

[Brad]

So you're saying that the usual 30+ million annual flu cases dwindling down to mere thousands isn't normal..?

How nice of our would-be overlords to throw us a bone.

Nisi forte non de serveitute, sed de conditione serviendi, recusandum est a nobis.

No bones for the anti-vaxxers (that also happen to overlap considerably with the anti-maskers).

Since they are not actually a 'vaccine' what do anti-vaxxers have to do with it?

Did you read the part about vaccinated people being the ones allowed to go maskless?

Which doesn't have anything to do with my question.

Since the jabs being offered are not vaccines (in either the legal or scientific definition) what do anti-vaxxers have to do with the situation?

Explain how they are not vaccines. In particular, I'd love to hear how the Johnson and Johnson vaccine isn't a vaccine.
