  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I'm not putting the mask back on. I'm vaccinated. The deal was that if I got the vaccine, I no longer had to wear the mask. So I got the vaccine.

Besides, the democrat party wants people wearing the mask at all times because it's a way of signifying that the average person is muzzled and has no voice. Everything that they want to do has some sort of a symbolic reason behind it.

I'm not an american so bear with me for interferring, but I really think you're reading to much into wearing a mask. I mean, theres a disease causing havoc worldwide and guess what, its highly contagious. It makes perfectely sense that vaccinated people still can transmit it regardless of their vaccination. It's the same thing with the flue shot too. People still contract it, but experience mild symptoms or nothing at all rather det than the full package. Masks arent made for the protection of the wearerer, but for others. Wearing one comes down to emphaty and solidarity.
The democrats are just following the same guidelines as the rest of the world. It's just disease controll.

Not in December of 2019, unless you had personally been in Wuhan China. But there are lots of other possibilities.

I stay tuned to disease outbreaks and first heard of this in the closing days of 2019 when it was still a China only problem but people were on planes headed all over the world from China.

Well, my parrents suffered something nasty about a month later than BrAndreyu did. Doc couldnt pinpoint what it was. A virus she told them. Both of them tested negative for the flue aswell. My hunch is that they had covid. Nasty caught, a slight fever and heavy breathing. Sounds all to familiar now one and a half year later.

Well, I am a paranoid schizo, so that at least could be a part of why I see it that way. I see the mask thing as being more of a way of signaling to your political tribe than actually doing any good in preventing the spread of a virus simply because viral particles are so small that they're going to travel through the weave of a mask. Unless you have some sort of hermetically-sealed breathing apparatus, the virus is bound to still spread.

It makes perfectely sense that vaccinated people still can transmit it regardless of their vaccination.

I'm not saying that you make no sense, but that doesn't make any sense and if that's the case, it means that the vaccine is pointless and that there is no real reason for people to be getting it if it doesn't prevent you from contracting and spreading the virus itself. I got the Pfizer vaccine because I was told that it would prevent covid19, not because a political party wanted me to get it. If the narrative now is going to be that "everyone has to get the vaccine but the vaccine does no good aside from maybe mitigating your symptoms should you contract covid19" then again, it's a way of signaling to one's political tribe and is ineffectual in actually preventing or eradicating the virus to begin with.


The democrats are just following the same guidelines as the rest of the world.

Knowing what I know about this party and what their priorities are, I have a very hard time believing that they aren't using this virus as a means to radically remake the country into whatever corporate fascist economy and radical left socialist culture that they want to make it into. The saying "never let a good crisis go to waste" certainly applies here, and it's my personal opinion that this is all part of the "great reset" thing to have a handful of companies control everything on the planet, get rid of small business as we know it, and enforce woke corporate HR values on the world... which also means getting rid of religious liberties because religions aren't "inclusive" to the precious protected classes of sexual deviants that are being endlessly promoted in media and academia (because these deviants cannot reproduce naturally and the planet is "overpopulated" or something- same reason why abortion & euthanasia are so heavily promoted by the culture industries now).

But remember that I suffer from a mental illness and this could all be just what I'm reading into what I see happening around me.
