>>120997984>>If your definition of "suffer" is literally just "wearing a mask in public", then the weak one in this scenario is you.Right, wearing a mask. Not the whole being out of work for a calendar year with less than a fourth your previous weekly earnings as unemployment benefits and a stimulus package that still can't get deployed usefully for citizens, or the social inhibition that locking kids indoors for a year does, or the impending collapse of several housing markets due to this, or just the sheer amount of plans getting fucked by a year (now likely 18 month) lockdown. Ordinarily you'd have to punch a cop to be stuck inside this long.
And on top of all that, half a million people in the US still caught it and died anyway, like there wasn't even a point to half-assing lockdowns. I said as soon as it broke through the Great Firewall that countries should've restricted all travel to China but no, the governments of the world still needed chinese bucks. I said when the first case appeared in the US that all international flights needed to get canceled and the patient zero and all other travelers within 2 weeks quarantined for a month. But no, the President doesn't have that authority and our new president called preventative travel bans "racist hysteria".
So yes I'm a bit peeved when it seems like every idiot on a position of power in the entire US if not world is dumber than I am but they're the ones fucking around on private resorts and I'm the one flipping shitcoins because I'm out of a job.
