Its superstitious bullshit. There are simpler solutions than wasting protective gear: Don't be sodomite and isolate the vulnerable and ban all super spreaders. The rules we have now led to arbitrary creation of potential hot spots. Since my local government isn't run by lunatics, I can ignore the circus and wait for it to fizzle out. (probably by another cucking of the latest strain.)

@maxmustermann @nik @xj9 @Moon it's not superstition, it's statistics.

The cloth coverings and bandanas? Those do nothing to protect *you*. This is correct. These only slow the spread, *in aggregate*, by reducing the number of droplets an asymptomatic carrier (that is, most people who get the virus) ejects, and by making them travel less distance.

(K)N-95 masks work. Period. It's been proven, over and over and over again. No, nothing works 100% of the time. But the entire point is to *reduce*. You're essentially arguing that anything less than perfection isn't even worth doing. It's a bad faith argument at this point.

But none of this was ever about science, or principles, or anything like that. You got your programming, you're faithfully executing it. The grown ups are assessing information and coming to rational decisions, and updating them when new information comes in.

"muh it's too small to be filtered"
No, it is not necessary for something to be precisely the size of the filter openings and no smaller in order to be filtered. Survival nuts use sand to remove impurities from water, surely they can understand the concept.

"muh freedom of movement"
1) I'm so sorry a mask weighing 3.5 grams is restricting your movement. I'd be happy to drive you to physical therapy.

2) private business, etc. pretend it's a bakery that only makes straight cakes and you'll understand.

3) no freedom is absolute. you can't yell fire in a crowded movie theater, nor can you knowingly spread disease to a crowded movie theater. your rights end where others' begin.

"muh china virus"
yeah, CCP's a bitch, ain't it? I can't imagine why you're mad at literally every asian person though.... part of the reason the CCP is such a bitch is, well, they're really secretive about the shit they're doing. maybe recognize this as a clandestine biological attack by the chinese government and behave accordingly? at the moment, you're literally arguing for your "right" to further the interests of a foreign government by sicking your own countrymen.

"muh 99.99% survivability"
Would you fly in an airplane if 1 in 1000 flights crashed? also, that number is wrong. it's 99% *at best*, which, at that spectacularly generous rate, is still 10x (that's 1000%, btw) deadlier than the flu.

"muh it's just a cold"
there are known long-term effects, and it's almost certain we'll discover more over time. I just can't imagine wanting so bad for your own body to be permanently damaged. it makes even less sense when you argue for your "right" to cause others' bodies to become permanently damaged

@r000t @maxmustermann @nik @xj9 @Moon

>"muh 99.99% survivability"
Well, don't eat then, because you have a better probability of dying choking with food while eating, than for breathing corona virus. LITERALLY.

>there are known long-term effects
There aren't more than they were in 2018. Quit consuming fear porn.
Especially when cures for these virus that have bothered humans for ages have been discovered.
HCQ, Ivermectin, Artemisia Annua, Chlorine Dioxide. Even sun light kills virus, think about that, how hard can be finding a cure? We found many.

These are only therapeutics. He wants 100% protection. There is Vitamin D and Tonic Water for that. I got through winter with Tonic water only btw.
@mystik @Moon @nik @r000t @xj9 On top of the fucking masks (hopefully handled appropriately) Of course. Also helpful is not going into certain hot spots. Like vaccination centers for example. One of the sure signs a vaccine works is you getting a weaker form of the disease you are getting vaccinated against. Since you need two swabs from that crap you its sure thing. On the risk I am doxing myself, I am blaming a recent outbreak on the effectively run vaccination center inside a fucking convention center that doesn't have 24/7 ventilation through carbon filters and UV lights.
@maxmustermann @Moon @nik @r000t @xj9 Nothing of that makes sense. Watch the video I posted. You're repeating mainstream narrative, which is 100% bs.
@mystik @Moon @nik @r000t @xj9 Reverse stupidity isn't intelligence and the regulations are in place due to the things you have posted. My dad in his coworkers found out that the maximum time you should wear respirator masks is like 3 hours. You know these right? No? Its the kind that got snatched up at the beginning out of hardware stores. Propagandists want us to wear that shit whenever we go outside which is retarded because you will wear out valuable protective gear and wearing it for more than 3 hours straight.
@maxmustermann @Moon @nik @r000t @xj9 Our bodies are not designed to wear any kind of "protective" gear, it's not healthy. We already have all the protection we need built in our bodies.
@mystik @Moon @nik @r000t @xj9 Show me. Get a few sheets of Fermacell™ and cut that shit with a angle grinder without goggles and respiratory protection. Don't forget to breathe in all the healthy cement dust.
@maxmustermann @Moon @nik @r000t @xj9 Are you comparing being in contact with hazardous particles orders of magnitude larger than a virus, to being in contact with other people?
@mystik @Moon @nik @r000t @xj9 No. One is appropriate use of protective gear (3 hours max according to the Trade Association) and the other thing is risk mitigation for paranoid people who are afraid of a bat virus. That is here, and mutating and not a product of the imagination of nurses using a subjective test(1).

1) Ironic statement: For more information on faulty epistemology see this:

>"and mutating and not a product of the imagination"
Please tell me WHEN respiratory virus didn't mutate? It's how they work, by design. It's been like that since humans exist.
@mystik @Moon @nik @r000t @xj9 Doesn't change the fact that the PRC quick test is still subjective and there is no way to detect that shit objectively with them. That is a problem, because it is the most widely used kind of test.

Hilarity ensues when you consider that allegedly British variant can't be pinpointed to a single point of origin unlike the one from that winter vacation resort. It gets even goofier if your remember how the Spanish flu probably wasn't but came from the battlefields of WW1. Yes, its real, but the measures and hysteria around it got from 0 to retarded in 5 minutes.

@mystik

Why are you showing a chart of deaths narrowed down to only those in sweden? Seriously, what was your reasoning and explanation for that?

@maxmustermann @nik @xj9 @r000t @Moon

@freemo @maxmustermann @nik @xj9 @r000t @Moon Becaue Sweden did shit about the "gLoBAL paNDeMic". Nothing, zero, nada.

But have a more in depth analysis (thread):

@mystik

FYI while sweden did not have a lockdown they did employ **strict** social distancing (which most citizens followers) and people were urged to only leave the house for necessities (though stores were forced to close).

So just to be clear they didnt do "nothing" they just didnt employ lockdowns (which I have always supported not doing a lockdown as a measure against COVID).

@maxmustermann @nik @xj9 @r000t @Moon

@freemo @maxmustermann @nik @xj9 @r000t @Moon

>**strict** social distancing
Horseshit that you can't measure. This is 100% untrue.

@mystik

By that I mean, the government advised their citizens to follow social distancing guidelines, and as any swedish person will tell you, most did just that.

@maxmustermann @nik @xj9 @r000t @Moon

@mystik

What the fuck are you talking about, I made no assertions, I asked a question... you say dumb shit and/or unexplained shit doesnt make me brainwashed
