Boy, if that was the smartest and wisest person you knew, it is time to expand your pool of acquaintances. How dumb do you have to be to freaking ignore the science for over a year.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 11, 2021:

I was a Stay At Home Mom at that time, the kids had gone to school and I was getting on with my daily routine. I always have a radio on playing adult contemporary music, but the DJs kept saying something weird, so I turned on CNN. I was shocked, dismayed. I remembered when President Kennedy was assassinated, the coverage was non stop. This was so similar. After dinner we decided we should really make sure the cars had full tanks, just in case. We were in long line at the gas station, and while we waited a older very slim male, Hispanic or Asian (I no longer remember) rode up to the c-store on a bicycle and parked the bike and went in. Some young kid started messing with his bike, and then started to ride off on it. The owner came out and caught him, took a couple swings at the kid, and the kid ran away, so the old dude got on his bike and rode off. We just thought how brassy of that kid to try to steal a bike in front of a huge crowd of witnesses in broad daylight. I had been participating in an online forum of Golden Retriever owners, found out the servers were in one of the WTC buildings, so we lost contact for a while.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 3, 2021:

I agree, Republican men are terrified of becoming and being treated the way they are treating minorities and women. When I first read "The Handmaid's Tale" it freaked me out. My calming device was to remind myself that I was one of "the frozen chosen," and it couldn't really happen anyway. Just fiction, I told myself. OMG...... Now I'm no longer among the chosen, the blinders have been removed from my eyes. I am of the belief now that Republicans are just plain evil beasts. Yes, It is damned expensive to raise a child, and women with privilege have access to abortion and birth control. Their babies won't be turned into cannon fodder. Women of color and poor women are needed to breed those future boots on the ground no matter what it costs to bring them up. I don't see this ending well.

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 2, 2021:

Not only that, but per HCR: Last night at midnight, a new law went into effect in Texas. House Bill 1927 permits people to carry handguns without a permit, unless they have been convicted of a felony or domestic violence. This measure was not popular in the state. Fifty-nine percent of Texans—including law enforcement officers—opposed it. But 56% of Republicans supported it. “I don’t know what it’s a solution to,” James McLaughlin, executive director of the Texas Police Chiefs Association, said to Heidi Pérez-Moreno of the Texas Tribune when Republican governor Greg Abbott signed the bill in mid-August. “I don’t know what the problem was to start with.” At this moment I am pretty sure I will never set foot in Texas again, and also fairly certain I will not do business with companies based in Texas. It seems unfair to some of those companies, but I am in no position to influence the government in Texas, but they are. I am pretty sure they will not notice my lack of support for their business, and I have no idea what the political leanings of these companies are, but I vote with my pocketbook whenever I can and I'm not sending another of my hard earned dimes into Texas if I can possibly avoid it. The motto of the Dept. of Roads of Texas is "Don't Mess With Texas", to which I reply Texas is doing such a darn good job of making a mess all by itself.

After a COVID skeptic falls to the disease, people ask an awkward question: Should we care?

HippieChick58 comments on Sep 1, 2021:

These past 20 or more years the ideological differences between them and us have grown. We are both so convinced that our way is right, it is the only way to be, we can no longer regard the other side dispassionately and listen for the truth of their belief. Understand that the us and the them are shifting groups of individuals who either agree with us our disagree. There is no rational discourse, it is all heated rhetoric. IF you change your mind/learn more/evolve your base groups scorns you and you may lose your identity before you are ready to. People really get dug in to being afraid of change, of education, of evolving. It is quite irrational. And that is why there are people dying of covid who have refused to be vaccinated. Our last less than illustrious president didn't do a damn thing towards reconciliation or breaking down barriers. He was all for more rigid barriers, and this is the price the nation is paying for that horrible decision. I am/was a true bleeding heart compassionate liberal. But my well of compassion has dried up and my give a damn got up and went. My mind screams let the suckers die, they brought it on themselves. My mouth and fingers try to make it less scathing than that, but really... Karma is a bitch and she is working overtime. Yes, I have a dearth of compassion, and I worry for me and for the rest of the world. This isn't going in the right direction, but I'm too tired to do more than notice it is going to hell.
