Get rid of the hand wash signs in the restrooms. Hepatitis is a hoax. Wake up people!

That was my reply to an anti-maskers post on FB. It started a mini-shitstorm. I went on to say if someone didn't take COVID seriously and take precautions, why would I believe they bother to wash their hands after taking a shit? I won't set foot in a restaurant run by or that employs such people.

E coli is a hoax too. Perfectly healthy people who have died from it were just faking it.

It was on United Airlines post about their flight sweepstakes for the vaccinated.

People posting that it’s illegal to share your vaccination status while telling the world on Facebook that they refuse to get vaccinated.

vaccination status. Hint: There is NO SUCH LAW and this type of claim speaks volumes about their stupidity and gullibility.

If they actually claim that HIPAA prohibits this, they need to do a little research. That is a total misinterpretation of the law.

The HIPAA Privacy Rule

The HIPAA Privacy Rule establishes national standards to protect individuals' medical records and other personal health information and applies to health plans, health care clearinghouses, and those health care providers that conduct certain health care transactions electronically. The Rule requires appropriate safeguards to protect the privacy of personal health information, and sets limits and conditions on the uses and disclosures that may be made of such information without patient authorization. The Rule also gives patients rights over their health information, including rights to examine and obtain a copy of their health records, and to request corrections.


https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-professionals/privacy/index.html

So specific individuals and entities such as your doctor, health insurance provider cannot share your vaccination status WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION. The law does not even remotely prevent YOU from sharing your information.

How do these idiots manage to negotiate daily life when they are so easily duped?

They tell us that to keep the chemical cleaner industry in business. All those chemicals are bad for you and they shorten your life span. That's why we're seeing so much autism and so many birth defects. A pregnant woman washes with those chemicals and voila! Pretty soon their chemicals are going to cause spontaneous abortions, which is the ultimate goal of the liberals. So, if you want to keep your genes alive for future generations, please don't wash!

They indoctrinate kids from the very beginning, telling them that the Earth is round and 4-5 billion years old. Math is bullshit too. They think they know how fast light can travel and how far it is from our 'round' Earth to the sun. There's no way they can know any of that shit! The whole universe revolves around God and heaven and below that is Hell. They're teaching heathanism in the schools and that shit is straight from the bowels of Satan! The only way to keep your kids on the straight and narrow is to home-school them, and all they need to read is the King James version of the Bible!

I've had pretty much that story told to me (except the light part, apparently light is a gas and there for doesn't travel.) And for an added bonus, damn right the KJV, if it was good enough for Saint Peter it's good enough for the likes of you!

I have no problem lighting up a big stogie and blowing it in their face. I mean, they obviously don't care, right?

And those businesses that ignore mask mandates and have the signs out front that say they're doing so... I'll light up in there too. I mean, they don't care, right? How dare they try to infringe on my right to have a nice cigar when and where I want to...

Pfffft.

it's all a myth to get people and businesses to give money to big soap

It's strangely satisfying to hope that people have gotten into the habit of washing hands with soap and disinfecting things over the past year. Even though it doesn't do much for an aerosol virus, it should help against lots of other viruses and bacterial pathogens too.
