I’ve heard some people have stayed in the house since March 2020. It seems like you would be stark raving mad if you did that, but did it they have.

I still see some people shopping very early in the morning wearing purple gloves and TWO masks.

I wonder whether they remove the gloves before removing the masks or vice versa.

And are they properly disposed of as bio hazmat?

[Jonny7797]

because they’re stupid ignorantly people who dont know what day it is, let alone that masks dont work.

I saw a woman wearing raingear walking through a light rain wearing a mask. I almost stopped the car to ask her which mental hospital she’d escaped from.

I’m no therapist ...they’re pussies

[Col Frank Slade]

Because the CDC told them to.

[BenLurkin]

What’s this “Covid-19” to which they refer?

[Radix]

I am a Therapist, and you are 100% correct.

[GaltAdonis]

Perhaps some of them started out that way -
maybe they were stark raving mad before covid.

There have always been agoraphobes. Covid’s just a convenient excuse. “See, I’m not a nutcase!”

[SamAdams76]

I live in an over 55 community and some of the residents are frightened out of their minds. Some elderly couples are clutching each other when they go outside, fully masked. If you get too close to them, their eyes will widen in fear.

These folks typically have cable news on 24/7 in their homes and they literally think they are putting their lives at risk by going outdoors.

I do not think they have very long to live. Some of them have died already. What was supposed to have been the best years of their lives have been utterly destroyed as they live in total fear.

Regarding the excellent mail meme you posted....I said to a couple I know two years ago “so when all this “science” is debunked are the people responsible going to apologize?” They shot eye daggers at me and admonished me that her father died of covid....as if the two things were related. That sums up the left on covid. Madness.

[Sicon]

Compromised immune systems and the risks of long Covid are among reasons they say they are maintaining caution.

But stupidity, irrational fear, and ignorance are the actual reasons.

[Parley Baer]

That is happening right here in my neighborhood.

It’s becoming easier and easier to pick a Democrat out of a crowd…

I’m not a therapist; however, I will venture to speculate a lot of people have isolated and used the pandemic to do so because they are stuggling with issues that they would prefer to avoid people over to begin with. It is easier than confronting problems, atleast to some it seems that way.
