Ha!  Me make it about politics?  What do you think the last 2 years have been?  Both nationally and in our little dysfunctional message board.

Exactly. You are making my point. We have gotten to where a common sense approaching to easing mask mandates is viewed through a political lens in your eyes. Pathetic.

Awww....  Look who's lashing out.

Anyway keep making it political. It's worked GREAT so far.

Come on dude, seriously?  This place has become a politically charged wasteland where people toss grenades wherever possible

Seriously? Where's your indignation at the grenades thrown by others in this very thread before my post was up?

It's all my fault.   I'm the only one going political, according to Clarissa.

He perceives that you are coming from the left - hence the criticism.
He only goes after certain people. I though 82 was his new whipping boy.

You were 100% factually correct in your post.

Cause it was at least COVID related. It's just as stupid.  I would have rolled my eyes if one of our resident dentists had brought up the border or some unrelated crap too.

Oh be more of of a partisan victim Jock. If Rocket or 4Ever brings nonsense politics into a discussion, 10 people queue up to mock and dunk on them immediately.  If the other side does, like you can't help yourself doing most days, your cabal chimes in and happily join in the chorus. It's all awful and ruins 80% of the Superbar threads.

I actually have good discussions otherwise with 82 hence why I give him crap about it.  But sure, lump me in with the DASTARDLY RIGHT, cause it's easier to stay pious that way

Interesting take by this Virginia Dem.  Science, hey?

https://www.dailywire.com/news/virginia-dem-says-masks-are-political-signals-so-forced-masking-violates-1st-amendment?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=dwbrand&fbclid=IwAR0fRmu3uVEDuezom3vBjQA0zHbtUpBosvy-AxzR_mF7rVg6mX0d1FQPavI

I think people of all political persuasions can come together to agree that this is some of the dumbest shi*t ever uttered.
His suggestion, taken to its logical conclusion, would make this a clothing optional nation.
And while Ziggy might enjoy that on his next visit to Noah's Ark, the feeling would not be mutual.

I was just making fun of your post. Jesmu made a legitimate comment and you jumped all over it.

Based on driving around Madison this afternoon, the comrades in the people's republic are doubling down on their outdoor mask usage today.  😂

I mean it's winter and a mask is less bulky than a scarf...
Retire Terry Rand's jersey!

It was 38*.  One guy was wearing shorts to go with his mask.

Dane Co will have a mask mandate until 2025.

I half believe this.  The other half of me says they desperately want to do exactly what CA and NY have done.

Or case counts and hospitalizations are dropping significantly.

But sure...keep making it about politics.

Lots of people still dying from Covid. February 2022 has been one of the most deadly months in the 2+ years of the pandemic. This in spite of vaccines, boosters, social distancing, masking, school closings, etc., - and as a bonus we got more suicides, mental illnesses, drug addiction, alcohol abuse, obesity, failed businesses, regular crime, violent crime and (maybe worst of all) the most disadvantaged of our children being left hopelessly behind academically and socially.

Easing restrictions is mostly about enough people saying they've had enough. We've reached that tipping point. Science has very little (if anything) to do with it. It will be used as cover, but only the most naive or jaded will believe it.
