User ID: 79624604 ![]() 11/15/2020 01:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I’m trying to figure it out. Quoting: Runningwithscissors 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. I truly believe, as much as it hurts to type it, whether Trump remains in the White House (or not), that we are beyond the tipping point of what would be known as "global domination." I have been furloughed for 8 months; I still receive my medical/dental benefits. However, I have not been able to contribute to my 401K or any other "work related" benefit/investment. Given the global impact on world economies, I believe that even if everything went back to "normal" tomorrow, that we have passed the tipping point of any "normalcy." The "big dogs" will succeed in enslaving all of us, whether we want to admit it (or not). Without compliance, you will be shunned by society and receive NOTHING! I am not compliant or complacent, but with 5 kids and a wife, what are the options? Unemployment is a joke, our savings have been depleted, we are both out of work (mind you both highly educated and successful in our (past) careers), and the workforce looks grim. At what point do morals and necessities collide? At what point does acceptance and desperation cross paths? If this is just MY story, think of the global effect this will have for the decades to come. Who decides who gets what handouts? Does someone running around a Ugandan village get the same as someone with a mortgage, etc.? We're all about to be completely fkd, while grabbing our ankles (without lube), regardless of this elections end result. Why? Because the big dogs are blatantly announcing that they are shoving down our throats and there is ZERO effort to "mask" (pun intended) it. Good post, a dose of realism! Thank you. My wife (and family) came over from Cuba, on a raft, to escape exactly what is being done...on a global level. If you want two realists, our house is where it is. |

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. I'm in education, so I have to pretend like this is a big thing since that's what my students and coworkers and admin are pushing, but I'm also in NY state which is an open-air prison. They don't want people coming in and we're being threatened if we try to leave (with court appearances, mandatory testing, and $2,000 fines); although we do have a local area whose Sheriff (Fulton Co.) said they will NOT enforce Thanksgiving restrictions. I'm pretty sure based on symptoms that I had Covid back in February. My family was passing germs around from all of our schools, so we had a cold and flu come through, but then as my fam was well, I had something else that felt like an extended flu (fatigue, dry coughs, other Covid symptoms...). But it ended and I had zero long-term health affects, so I think this is a hoax and a scam. Have people died? Yes, including the parent of a friend, but that person did not die from Covid. They died from a different condition that NY was ignoring (basically, anything that wasn't Covid) and couldn't be mourned b/c of fascist social distancing rules. I also said this the other night, but I'll repeat it here: we have imported millions of stupid people into this land. Whites, who created this country, are still somewhere around 170 million...but that means the other 170 million are not white, and the majority of that non-white population are either stupid, immigrants, illegal, or some combination. To wit: I went to a Target the other night and liberal sheep along with the persons of color were only too happy to embrace the fascism. They tried to call me out for using a 'dirty' cart instead of taking a cart from their 'clean' line, but if I'm in the store, I'm not going to be any less likely to contract Covid based on my choice of an individual shopping cart. I felt like I was in a 3rd world country and I left without buying anything. So the issue is pathologically altruistic liberals who want to virtue signal and be masochists as long as that'll get them likes on social media; and hordes of stupid immigrants who are here so that everybody can be exploited. I mean stupid in the literal sense-not that "it's dumb" that we have immigrants, but that they are low-IQ; they are not smart enough to set up a civilization or to maintain the one we are handing them on a platter. The elites see us all as cattle. But they have imported millions of slaves...and our immigrants are too ignorant to be unhappy being slaves. I'm not a slave, so I'll live until the libs put me on a train and throw me in an oven. Libs/antifa-BLM motto: wir mussen die weissen aus rotten. Oh, and EFF Cuomo!!!!

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77612401 ![]() 11/15/2020 01:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've not witnessed many people locally that embrace the restrictions, but have encountered the "I'm saving the world by complying and your a evil SOB for not being like me" people in droves! I wouldn't say I enjoy or even wish for this circus to continue, but as an introvert I already do some of these things so it's not really cumbersome for me. My employer has not closed a single day this year (work in the shop at an auto dealership.) They did rotating shifts for one week back in March/April, then scrapped that idea and went back to normal. So my work hasn't been impacted at all. I'm not a fan of large crowds inside enclosed spaces, so the cancellation of events and such is a null factor for me. It has been interesting after a lifetime of being forced to be social and interactive and being ostracized for not wanting to do such things, to see the tables turned and everyone being forced to isolate and distance. I'd never ostracize people like they do to me, but the irony has been delightful. |

We’ve been hearing for weeks that things are getting worse than ever, but nothing serious has been done in most places to fight against it. Knowing that a vaccine is still months away at best from being widely available, I know many people have felt like things have been getting out of control and they’re glad to see some action finally being taken to try to turn things around back in the right direction. |

Quoting: puzzlesphere The cognitive dissonance is completely off the charts! No second lock-down seems to on the horizon, just a constant cauldron of boiling COVID fear.

It seems the vast majority here have complete trust in media and our Gov... frightening! My own mother won't discuss anything other than her dog, Thanksgiving and Christmas, even though the restrictions are making her life demonstrably worse. Everyone is extraordinarily complacent (we're the best in the world), and complete compliance (our Gov knows best, and would never do anything to hurt us).
