A message to friends. It is time, now, to stand up and poke the bear in the eye.
This only works if others have your back. My tagline has remained unchanged since January 6, 2021.
How to start? Please advise with recommendations.
Burn your Vax Card.
Refuse to comply. Take off your mask. Don’t get the jab. Speak up to your neighbors. Get involved in local politics. Pray for the unborn and for our country. Don’t be silent, be loud.
In short, do what Freepers and good Americans do.
I don’t watch videos, so what are her qualifications and where does she work/practice?
Do it all and I get laughed at but I continue. Walked into a store recently to buy an item, I had no mask on. One employee berated me, the owner meekly took my money and said nothing. I am going back to say will not shop there again, and I have known the owner for over twenty years.
People ARE STILL getting the virus. I put the mask on out of respect for others. I don’t know if they work but I’m not looking for an argument. This 81 Y/O geezer needs some attention on the way to his funeral.
Sorry. Had two discussions open and posted this to the wrong one.
Yeah—I don’t want to get businesses in trouble, but I just walk in without a mask. Almost never get hassled in any way. Here in NM I think people are really sick of the BS.
But we’ll never convince all the sheep. Too bad. I pray for them, too.
The discussion is about a lot more than just masks.
Poke him in the eye?
How about we cut off his balls and put a hole between his eyes?
The only places I’ve been given grief for not wearing a mask are Whole Foods in Denver (running an errand for somebody else), Wells Fargo, and a Pediatrician’s office.
The office manager who confronted me replied, when I noted that the masks don’t work, “It’s not about that.”
Still wonder what she thinks it’s about, but not enough to venture back into that den of vipers to ask her.
Which bear, where?
There are so many coming after me, I can’t tell anymore.
The problem I see is that many and maybe most conservatives feel they have too much to lose by standing up. Imagine you are one of the trespassers from Jan 6, within 5-10 years of retirement. You get arrested and sentenced. Obviously you lose your job or your business fails while you spend months in jail. What’s to say they don’t strip you of your retirement money. Seize your house, leave your spouse penniless.
The rioters on the left don’t appear to have anything to lose? Nothing, while conservatives have everything. The dems and pubs both know this and act with impunity because they know you won’t do squat.
The dems have been successful at demonstrating what will happen to you if you act out like on Jan 6th. Who’s going to rally with that consequence looming over their head?
Oddly enough....it’s young people (30 somethings) who I see mostly wearing these absurd masks.
Pretty accurate summary of where we stand right now.
Continue. Do not give up. Many many people are just looking for someone else to do it first; it emboldens and encourages them; go without the mask. As often as possible.
Say “Thank you, I’m fine.” if or when they hassle, say it louder. Multiple times.
The final time, shout “THANK YOU, KAREN, I’M FINE.”
Thank you moonhawk. The solutions are clear to anyone willing to act.
You will never learn.
