Don’t recall anyone in the thread suggesting criminalization (except you), so it’s pretty strange that you brought it up. Perhaps that is appealing to you, but it sure isn’t appealing to me. In fact it is so abhorrent an idea to me that I am pretty much open to anything that would prevent such totalitarianism from happening in my community.
And just for context, I’m vaccinated and boosted, so this is not some anti-vax position. I am just dead set against anything specifically designed to create class prejudices and creating a new group of “untouchables”. This is 2022, we should be way beyond such foolishness.
- Glyptodon 5y agoObviously it's too late for it to matter and that was a bit of hyperbole. But I also think it's fair to say that anyone who insists on doing nothing and acting like COVID is a complete scam, vaccines are a complete scam, masks are complete scam, etc., is basically behaving pretty much criminally.
- kcplate 5y agoI’m thrice vaccinated and think masks are the biggest scam out there. It’s a worthless political virtue signal that gives people a false sense of security. Go ahead and lock me up…
- Glyptodon 5y agoAgree that folks can sometimes treat masks more as tchotchke talismans than considerate tools, but I also think it's real obvious that you can't win a watermelon spitting contest with a mask on. And a lot of people are splattery speakers.
