[quote:Anonymous Coward 79581578:MV80NTkyNDE4XzgzNjE3NDE5X0IxOTZGMkQ1] [quote:Runningwithscissors:MV80NTkyNDE4XzgzNjE3Mjg0XzFBNjg0OTkz] [quote:2hot2handle:MV80NTkyNDE4XzgzNjE3MjAwX0Q1REMwNzgy]The local supermarket is getting more and more draconian and restrictive with blocking off more isles to inconvenience people and make their shopping trip longer and putting up more signs reminding us that is a pandemic and be nice to the staff. I suppose the public are getting pissed at being lectured to constantly about sanitizing their hands, being forced to wear a suffocating hot face mask to shop and follow the arrows like we are prisoners in a prison setting. [/quote] I heard that’s what they do in prison - have the prisoners always 6feet apart in some prison areas. Interesting if it’s true. [/quote] Yep the shopping experience is becoming more and more like a prison experience. In fact they want to make all facets of our life like a prison experience. Our ancestors who fought and died fighting the Nazis during WWII would be rolling in their graves at how their descendants have thrown away all their freedoms. We might as well have let the Nazis take over. The result would end up being pretty much the same as now. [/quote]

I’m trying to figure it out.
I’ve seen it first-hand with several family members on family text. They seem downright
excited
with the new restrictions placed locally, as mild as they are compared to other places. That’s the only way I can describe it accurately - there’s real energy and excitement about the new restrictions, like they can now become more fully part of the pandemic movie they’re playing in their heads.
To be clear, this isn’t about my family members. I’m using them as first-hand experience with how the minds work of those who are compliant. It’s disturbing. It’s like street theatre and they can’t wait to participate.
I’m interested in hearing what others’ experiences are with those all on-board with restrictions, and what you think is their motivation behind it. So many people are acting in ways I never thought the majority in society would act like.
