Argument at work with woke idiots about Covid. Is it this bad everywhere?

Ignore the URL as I did not know what to put in there. But, I work in NJ and just got into a debate about Covid, masks, unvaccinated at work which turned into a yelling match. It's amazing how people are okay with vaccine passports, forced mask mandates and even wishing "will ill' on those not vaccinated. I was even called selfish for not wanting to wear a mask----"but I had Covid already"......That doesn't matter. They didn't even acknowledge that illegals coming in over the border unvaccinated was a problem. WTH, it's not even worth speaking to these woke idiots. I stayed calm but it escalated so incredibly fast when I simply didn't agree. BTW, I work in NJ, live in PA----is it this bad everywhere in the country? Give me some hope here....

Haven’t you been paying attention to the ‘Vaxxers’ here on FR?

The other population is Africa but so many die there who would see the increase?

“Fearmongering has the woke crowd going absolutely bonkers. They don’t care if you’ve been vaccinated or had the illness ... you could be carrying the germs that could get THEM sick. It’s crazy, but that’s what they’re thinking.”

Yes. Absolutely insane.

But they had to have the irrational fear to be exploited.

I cannot believe how germophobic and afraid of things they can’t see people are.

There’s video of police arresting a 12 year old for not wearing a mask.

I agree with you...
But, I’m old and am tired...
When someone starts crap with me in public, I don’t try to reason with an idiot.
I give a nasty look, raise my middle finger and say “ F#@k you”...
Then I walk away

When they call you selfish, just reply with, “Like getting an abortion.”

Let’s just say we know who would turn in Anne Frank today. Remember, these are the same people who say “I hope the anti-vaxxers die from Covid” and “We need to wear masks to protect the anti-vaxxers”.

The Branch Covidians would have been Nazi collaborators.

Gave up trying to converse with the insane years ago.
Trying to co-exist with these bassturds is impossible.
Just a matter of time at this point before it explodes.

Welcome to Bizarro America.

Nothing makes sense anymore.

Nothing.

It seems most people are completely incapable of critical thought.

It's so bad in my area that I'm seriously considering early retirement. I would love to work a few more years because I like what I do and I'm making really good money at it.

If I can make it five more years, I'll be assured of never running out of money in retirement and will be able to live wherever I want and pretty much do whatever I want. If I have to retire now, however, I'll still be okay but I'll probably have to clip some coupons along the way!

Now the people I work with here in NYC are great. It's external forces that are crimping my workplace. The NYC mandates are utterly ridiculous and they are making life as difficult as possible for those who do not want to take the experimental shots.

I'm close to 60 years old and have never missed a day of work in my 40+ year plus career. I've had the common cold/flu from time to time but I shake it off quickly and it doesn't keep me from coming to work. I've also never had a prescription drug which seems to amaze the doctors and dentists I see.

I'd like to keep it that way and I trust my immune system against this Chinese virus. For all I know, I've already had it. I do commute to NYC every week and have been to other major cities over the past year and a half. Only wear the stupid mask when I'm required to, otherwise it stays in my pocket. Same black cloth mask I've had since last April or May. I suppose I ought to toss it into the washing machine some day!

So far my company is on the side of their employees. None of their business whether or not we get the "shots". But increasingly, clients are mandating that anybody coming into their place of business needs one. I am determined not to get the experimental shots because I want to protect my immune system that has worked so well for six decades.

So if it gets to the point where clients won't see me, I will be inconveniencing my company and I'll probably need to step aside and let the younger ones take over.

If the CDC recommended eating dog poop, lots of Americans would do so.

Wait... What?

Does it matter what breed of dog the poop is from?

I just moved here from Germany. Beavercreek, which is a suburb of Dayton. I see a few masked idiots but the majority that I have encountered here are done with it. Went to an Irish fest 2 weeks ago in Dublin; maybe 1% had masks on. Where in Ohio are you?

How would that have worked (slurping up a teaspoon of Fauxci Flu)? Teaspoon of phlegm from a Covid patient?

I call it "Son of TeeVee", like Son of Sam.

The voices on the TeeVee are telling the Walking Vaxxed what to think and what to do.

Maybe if you feed them coffee beans first this could be a money maker ? You like they do civets to make that coffee the “beautiful people” are so wild about.

Yes.

Now we see how cowed and easily manipulated humans can be. The Milgram experiment was not a fluke.

Do not answer a fool according to his folly,
Or you will also be like him.
Answer a fool as his folly deserves,
That he not be wise in his own eyes.
-Proverbs 26:4

...or as the old Italians say, "when the donkey brays, don't answer it."

How dare you attempt to remove their ignorance? Especially in New Jersey where they're damn proud of it. Seriously, there are folks who live to argue because otherwise no one would pay attention to them.
