And, yes, you prove the point with your bringing up smallpox. People don't get smallpox now because it was eradicated with vaccinations!
vaccines can be amazing. but covid isn't small pox and the vaccines aren't the same, i wish the covid vaccine was as good as the smallpox vaccine.

If the vaccines worked? I’d be first in line, VOLUNTARILY!
I know masks. I used to work in the production of ventilation and respirator systems. A rubberized tight fitting double filter 95 masks, they basically make you look like a space alien when worn properly, will indeed filter out most of the coronavirus particles. Only I’ve never seen anyone but myself during the early days of the pandemic wearing one of those. None of you would wear one of those. Things that you do wear? Are absolutely 110% useless and stopping any virus. Period, end of story, it’s all about virtual signaling and even the sheep out there, KNOW IT!

Why do you think the politicians that try to terrorize us daily with “we’re all gonna die from Covid,” don’t take any precautions? Because they know the truth. I know this is a hard concept for many of you to swallow but it really is reality. You are all being duped.

I honestly 110% with every fiber of my being believe the vaccines Have a very nefarious agenda behind them. Do I know what it is? No, I have a couple theories, but at the end of the day I absolutely do know that we are not being sold what is being advertised. Throughout any of this. To me it doesn’t matter what your political affiliation is I’m just asking people to stop for a moment and really think. Democrat, Republican, liberal, conservative it doesn’t matter. Just stop for a minute and really think and ask yourself why.

So...your EVIDENCE that masks work is that you wore a mask and never caught covid?


REALLY? THAT'S your evidence?




WELL, guess what? I have NEVER worn a mask since it all started...and have never caught covid. SO...that's evidence that you do NOT need a mask!

Smallpox was a sterilizing vax, had no animal vectors and had long term safety studies. It didnt cause 17k deaths and 800k+ adverse events.

Why do Democrats want government to control every aspect of their lives? I think they like seeing brutal enforcement of safety measures the way they glorify it. They see it like the superhero finally getting the bad guy, replace superhero with big government/academia/msm/morally righteous corporations and replace the villain with anyone who thinks out of step.

decades ago, a liberal neighbor kid had a bumper sticker on his car that said “Question Authority”. I often think about how that phrase was a symbol of progressive values back then. It’s what hippies stood for, fight the man/fight the system. The new generation of progressives do not want to question authority, find large corporations benevolent, and completely trust the same politicians who make up a system that they say is also systematically racist. It is truly bizarre-o

I'm sorry, but mask mandates at this point *are* ridiculous. You are asking me to do something I don't want to do in order to protect someone who has chosen not to protect themselves. It is not on me to wear a mask to protect vaccine refuseniks, it is on the vaccine refuseniks to stop being so stubborn and get vaccinated.

You seem unaware that posters here don't respect posts that falsely label and vilify. That's the typical response from some on the left. It's dishonest

Because someone is worse off has nothing to do with our situation. I was robbed twice last month but it's worse in other places so I should be happy? On what planet does this make sense?

Sorry but your response is garbage. We know the cheap masks people are wearing have minimal effect and the studies prove this.

Silly to think smallpox and covid are similar.

I'm not at risk. Why do I need a vaccine, especially one that wears off in less than 1 year?

Especially when the mask is worn, on their chin, under their nose, around their neck......but they are good, because they have a mask on.
