Are your parents my mom? She’s the type to end up apologizing for being correct.
I’m with you 100+ it’s time to make noise, like, disturbing-the-peace levels of noise, bring out the metal trash can lids to bang on them, create a STOMP type musical, harass whoever needs harassment, annoy as much as necessary, it’s perfectly fine for healthy relationships to include a good dose of annoyance (well, mine do). I see protests continuing but nothing seems to be changing.
Anyway, in the meantime, I’m trying to teach people to stop using Google for their research (the censorship is easy enough to demonstrate). Hell if you can’t convince them, at least confuse them enough to start looking into it.
I draw the line at being vicious and name calling but, even then, have found myself starting a tweet with “Listen, troll...”
Is violence what it will take to walk this shit back? I hate to say it but it has looked that way for a while. The asswipes behind mandates and pressure tactics know they’re not making any sense or using logic. They know vaxxed people are gettin sick, spreading it, even dying. The know the shot is quite possibly deadly. They know it’s likely to st lest be injurious. They know ivermectin works. They know the mandates are unlawful.
They. Don’t. Care.
Their agenda is to push the toxic killshot into everyone and “um, excuse me but...” is not cutting it. Neither is, “hey you, asshat, let’s look at the data”. At some point, it’s going to demand a show of force.
I’m not looking forward to it.
Despair, I feel despair and lacking in hope right now.
