Poll of the Day > This lockdown has turned fear into a virtue.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Those who are afraid believe that they're better people than those who see through the nonsense of the many double standards unraveling today.

It's frustrating.

Youre frustrating.

and they ARE the better people.

wow look how fearless the tc is, guys! how virtuous, ok?

Fear makes strangers of those who would be friends.

Anyone lashing out at others for wanting to breathe oxygen for their health versus wearing a mask because the media told them to, mostly.

Edit: It's only about politics because people trapped in box mentality make it that way.

I literally hate the United States. The most selfish people on the planet live here.

We were infiltrated, and astronomically huge sums of our tax dollars have been used against us in the forms of psychological, spiritual, irregular, and information warfare, so I can completely understand why you feel this way. My heart has been hurting for years because of the bullshit. Humanity can thrive when we learn who the enemy is. Our collective output is massive, but our resources are literally siphoned.

Not asking you to believe me, but it's everywhere. Not just the U.S.

Fuck off stupid

Yet, some people with preexisting health conditions like asthma, COPD, and lung health conditions are still able to wear masks as much as possible when out working and/or socializing, so, who's the baby?

Yeah, I agree, wearing a mask sucks. It's not fun, especially during the summer. But it's a sacrifice that people are making in order to keep others and yourself alive. Suck it up and quit complaining, or not and get sick and die. Your choice.

That's not very nice Jen. The gamefaqs moderators will be correcting your behavior. Please do not use mean swear words, but do feel welcome to spread hate and fringe conspiracies

Zangulus posted...

Im sure your conspiracy addled brain thinks thats a valid response.

Nah, it just wasn't worth my time to argue with a dude who named one of his cats "Potato."

I like how I made a thread about double standards and then Jen, whose signature is making fun of another user, says the U.S. is full of selfish people before proceeding to tell me to fuck off. But alcohol was definitely the problem. Hope she finds some peace soon.

Youre less likely to spread it wearing a mask, vs catching it while wearing a mask.
So yes a mask does help you from not catching it, youre better protected if the people around you are also wearing one.

Is that really optimal, though?

Zangulus posted...

You dont seem to be willing to absorb any information that disproves your preconceived notions.

Zangulus posted...

Nice. Using an argumentative fallacy. It just shows you got nothing.

Irony.

RedPixel posted...

No, but it's better than dying.

If you have a pre existing condition like that you probably shouldnt be going out.

Yes, fear is now a virtue. Its ridiculous.

Also, we should have safe practices. Theres a pandemic going on.

Zangulus posted...

I cant attack your argument as youve refused to even attempt once.

So you admit your goal is to attack me regardless of what I try to put out there. I know you've seen my other threads, the ones I get modded for, because the opposite of left is apparently far-right. Modded.

The same individuals who demand others wear masks "to protect others" who did not wear them during previous flu seasons are hypocrites and authoritarians.

A death is a death, whether from flu or covid. Their self-righteousness should be seen for what it is, mindless and harmful sabotage of basic liberties.

A scared population is a controlled population.

People should be afraid--we're vile, garbage, idiot creatures.

I'm going to keep staying indoors and wearing a mask outside whenever this epidemic ends because I'm a literal health hazard to everyone else.

i only wear a mask where i am forced to.

Show us how fearless you are, go out without your mask and mingle with others without masks.
Just stay away from me until you get put in the hospital.

The opposite of the "American Left?" It's absolutely far right. The "American Left" is at best left-leaning centrism. (lol zeus)

I really don't know why people have such a hard time differentiating between fear and discretion. Sometimes, basic risk analysis leads to the conclusion that taking steps to avoid the risk is practically superior to not doing so. That's not cowardice, that's common sense.

This sounds like a claim you could easily substantiate by providing data comparing people's O2 saturation levels with and without masks on. If wearing a mask does indeed impair one's ability to breathe oxygen, O2 sats should go down over time and be measurably lower on average for the masked data set. Can you find evidence consistent with this hypothesis?

---

You would have been one of those people that would have denied the existence of the coronavirus in the first place. Now that you can't do that the only way you can manage to be an edgy idiot is to deny the usage of the masks.

I hope your district fines you if they catch you in public without one.

I really don't think I'm better than pretty much anyone else. Sure, I feel like I'm doing what's best for me to do, but I don't think doing a good act makes me better than anyone else. I just donn't think it's as simple as that.

I think it's reckless and ignorant to refuse to take proper precautions, sure. I know I'm pretty flat out stupid sometimes though myself. Half the time half of what I think or say is just plain dumb, and I get confused by some pretty simple stuff half the time.

I'm just smart enough to at some points realize how stupid I am. Fucking sucks.

No way I'd say I'm better.

Isn't TC the same guy who believes in Qanon?

If I didn't know people like this in real life, I'd accuse TC of being a troll. Unfortunately about a third of americans really do think covering your cough during a pandemic is worse than worshiping slave owner statues or whatever

It's people like you, TC, that are making it so we still have to wear masks, ok?

Alex Jones has family in the CIA. I don't trust him. He is literally a psy-op installed to cater to the right with half-truths and give the left something to laugh at.

Dividers are not my friend. I feel inclined to listen to people who try to unite others.

While anti maskers are like vegans, crossfitters and atheists in their looking down their nose at everyone they deem ignorant and inferior because they dont agree with them.

Also frustrating.
