....Replace every mention of religious motivation with scientific disease control and you have a template that could easily fit with Phase III Step 2 of “reopening Massachusetts” today. It is officially permitted to dance with a mask, with people in your household, or with friends up to six. But moving from table to table, dancing without a mask, or otherwise doing line dances or square dances with strangers is nothing but a danger to public health.
There are aspects of lockdownism as ideology that have a religious caste, and this has been true from the beginning of the lockdowns. People seen experiencing joy during lockdowns are shouted at by the members of the new flagellants. The idea is that if you are failing to be miserable and sad, you are contributing to the spread of disease and thus prolonging the period of misery for those who are compliant.
Under lockdowns, society is divided between the clean and unclean, not for reasons of spiritual sin, but for reasons of exposure to SARS-CoV-2, as proven by a PCR test which is then tracked and traced to root out all stains of germ from the community. Despite the 300 years between them, the ideological distance between Rev. Increase Mather and Governor Charlie Baker is not that great.

So we stop being human because the fascists order us to? This is the point where we all need to Question Authority.

All FUN is BANNED in Boston.
Very true. The nutcases clutching their masks like talismans and reproving the evildoer who dares go without one are just a manifestation of that old Puritan religious spirit (which was really all about social control and enforcing conformity).. Sort of Puritanism for atheists.
Once Massachusetts was thoroughly terrorized and complacent, they can manipulate them to do anything.... on every other third Tuesday between 6 and 9, except at a wedding or a funeral, but only if you’re crying (for real ... and we have ways of finding out), and there’s enough gas in your tank to get you home and back three times and the lifts in your shoes do not exceed 1/2”, or belts with no more holes than 4, unless you carry a successful bariatric program card validating the 5th hole.
‘(which was really all about social control and enforcing conformity)..’
as is all organized religions, as well as just about every other human institution...
human history abhors the individual...
I think I saw this movie in the 80s, had Kevin Bacon in it.
... and a fun soundtrack!
That’s what I was thinking - paging Kevin Bacon...
I don’t get the square tables thing. Six at square table is more bizarre.

What is really funny is that they are mostly imposing this draconian rules onto their fellow leftists. It’s as if they hat themselves.
They don’t hate themselves.
They despise and disdain the people they rule over.
You don’t think the people shoving this down their fellow citizens’ throats actually practice what they preach...?
But they are one and the same. There is no difference between Liz Warren and her constituents.
It starts with “C”, (covid)
An it rhymes with “T”,
