I dunno…maybe reading this in a bad mood has colored my thinking. But pardon me if I really don’t give a flying fuck about these people anymore. You can’t reason with them. You can’t teach them anything. They are beyond reach.

We’re rapidly approaching the point where we will have to protect the majority of society from these ignorant fools. Make vaccinations mandatory to rejoin ANY part of society. Then let these fools become isolated, and let them wallow in their “victory.”

But…there is the health care system, which will have to care for them. And those other patients who will need the medical resources that these ignorant, selfish people will use up… No neat and tidy solution here, but the enabling of this bullshit has to stop.

I really don’t know why Fauci is so horrified at this. Nothing has really changed. They were all ready and willing to run out and hoard hydroxychloroquine (or whateverthefuck it was called) upon the endorsement of an illiterate con artist, and now they call the experts and scientists quacks. Same shit, different day. Sad, yes. Maddening, yes. Dismaying, yes. I am only “horrified” at the thought of them walking among us — all the more reason for a mandate. This is no different from the old bromide of “your right to swing your fist ends at the tip of my nose.”

Sorry if this pisses any of you off. But I. Am. Done.
