      Sorry, guess I’m not a hero then, I think trying for two years was more than enough.

        It’s mad that people can go “hey my actions put people at risk of death and injury and I’m just going to do it”

        Coming from someone living with a person with long-COVID, someone who got infected AFTER being fully vaccinated and AFTER the emergency period, I just gotta say that this kind of thinking is really disappointing. Can you imagine if there was an afterlife, and you had to explain your actions to your higher power.

          Yeah, you know, I realize that driving my car around puts others at risk, it pollutes the air, I might hit and kill someone accidentally, but I have to get food and go to work somehow. I guess screw me for just trying to live my life, right?

          I would ask why that higher power thought creating covid was a good idea in the first place, or why he didn’t care enough to stop it.

            Guy, you drive a car under the speed limit, sober, and when you have the right of way. If you fail to do any of those, and someone gets hurt, you are definitely at fault. You need to reasonably limit how much air pollution your car has and not roll coal.

            God definitely gave you the means to stop it. It’s masks, filtration, ventilation, and obviously vaccines.

              Am I not putting people at risk of death and injury by driving my car even if I do it while sober and follow the rules? Am I not harming people with my exhaust, even if it’s stock and legal? We all do stuff that puts others at risk, it’s part of life.

              God could have made it not even happen in the first place, he needs to answer for creating a death virus, and cancer, and all the other horrible stuff he is responsible for.

                As I already mentioned, the risk is much greater and is considered murder if it’s outside of what’s necessary. You drive but don’t speed.

                I see your comment that you didn’t even mask during the mandate. Guy, after the suffering I’ve seen, your actions are appalling. But a sociopath like you will never get that no matter how many reasons you hear.

                  The rush may be greater if I don’t follow the laws, but then finding the laws the risk still exists. I don’t feel bad for driving and putting others at risk while I just try to get to work or home.

                  I did mask during the mandate what I had to, I also didn’t mask during the mandate when I didn’t have to. It’s not like I went into a nursing home without a mask, I went out with other people who were also willing to not use masks, it’s not like I intentionally exposed my breath on those who wanted to stay isolated and masked up. If it’s appalling to hang out with other intentionally un-masked individuals, I don’t know what to tell you.
