People are consumed by fear. Here in my town of a few thousand no one has been wearing masks throughout this debacle. Now some reports appear how "Texas cases going up!" and _everyone_ is suddenly wearing masks.
One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind. Let's take a big step back - place yourself on the moon and regard the Earth. Consider Covid.
[1] Compared to other causes of death, Covid is still a nothingburger. Worldwide we're at about 500k covid deaths. When divided into the 8 Billion population this is 0.00008. It's not even a drop in the bucket, it's a few molecules.
[2] Politicians are deciding what is "safe" or not. Good people decided to believe Dr Fauci and all the other experts. We stayed home, sheltered in place, obeyed the rules. Companies shut down, people wore masks, no more movies, no more beer, no eating out. Then came the artificially induced racial riots! All of a sudden scores of healthcare workers are signing up to support public gatherings, no matter what the size & density. Politicians are blessing this behavior. This point alone should cause everyone to wake up. This thing cannot be dangerous and safe at the same time.
[3] You're in much more danger of getting killed in your car than covid. Look it up.
[4] In the USA we didn't even come close to being overwhelmed by this disease. Hospitals didn't fill up, the field units were not used at all. Even today with reports of "2nd wave" we still have ample hospital capacity. The TX TMC shows about 2x surge capacity remaining. We are totally in the green here, we're not even in yellow let alone red. (link below)
[5] It's over in many places. Italy, once the horrific 'hot spot' that inspired the rest of the world to shut down, is now in the clear. In Sweden this virus has run its course.
[6] Millions will likely die due to the shutdown. This isn't being tracked anywhere because there is no money to be made nor power to be wielded. However, damage to the worldwide economy and disruptions to global supply chains will impact the poor disproportionately. Just google for "starvation due to covid."
[7] The media lies all the time. Why would they start telling the truth about the covid? Their mechanism of keeping you under control is fear. When was the last time you saw any good news about the covid? (ie. an article with the specific intent of showing how things are getting better)
[8] There is huge money involved. In the USA alone the government opened the public purse rather quickly and allocated Trillions for 'covid.' Hospitals get paid extra for covid patients, especially if they end up on a vent. Drug companies stand to get rich from covid treatments. It has been demonstrated that independent research and reporting is being actively shut down by the large pharmaceuticals.
[9] Tech Giants are censoring anyone with opposing views. Boot-on-the-ground videos from emergency rooms are being deleted. Interviews with medical personnel are removed. Authors are discredited. Freedom speech no longer exists.
TX TMC status:
(provides perspective to all the recent media fearmongering)
Charts like this, provided by our very own smashycrashy, will ensure that people never leave the home:
(unless of course you attend a riot, then you're immune, the virus is clever that way)

Should have left well enough alone with you other apology thread.
