There’s too much complacency out there to encourage more. As divided as we appear, my suspicion is, too many are looking for ‘reasons or excuses’ to ignore or hide from it. Whereas, those like myself will continue to stand up against blatant lies and can use the help of others to combat them.

“there is NO truth” - Horsefeathers! Our planet spins on it’s axis with gradually slowing revolutions while orbiting the closest sun… Treating all utterances as equal gives unearned validity to those too lazy to do their homework - or those attempting to deceive. No thanks ~

Emergency is a word lable and situation all three can be the same in a given situation or 2 or all 3 different..... the same with MASK word lable situation..... my most relevant point is WHAT KIND OF MASK FOR WHAT KIND OF emergency??? Has anyone here noticed people are littering streets and parking lots with blue surgical masks given to them for free by store owners wanting everyone to shop and make other shoppers feel "comfortable?? Surgical blue masks DO NOT PROTECT the people wearing masks.....such masks prevent some germs and viruses from escaping the mask protecting other people nearest them ..... and the emergency is for the most vulnerable people: smokers, asthmatics, recent surgical patients, people who don't or can't wash their hands repeatedly exposing themselves to the virus ..... masks allow people to suck in infected or pure ambient air and prevent much exhalation of infected or pure/depleted of oxygen thus carbon dioxide air

A near-perfect illustration of social proof. Maybe a perfectly perfect illustration.

So many people are joining the already long line of those lamenting one death or many deaths. That’s despite the earth’s exponentially increasing population and its inevitable consequences.

Granted, my time in the military — having been trained to kill, having gone to war, having seen multiple deaths, having adapted to death and the possibility of my own death — shapes my attittude.

Whoever is doing it, social proof is social proof.
