Now I'm hitting rethugs on FB.

Yesterday it was Tweeter.
Been reading how bad they are having it. No haircut, can't go to the movies, no this or that. Guess what? We all are buttercups!

Ok, I understand the hardship of not working. But get over the lack of mundane stuff already! This is a war you snowflakes.

Some even trying to say I'm unpatriotic for going along with the lock down.

I'm telling them we are so lucky they weren't there for WWII or we would be under German control.

And the whine from self proclaimed survivalist is just.....

Definitely seeing who are the true snowflakes and Patriots now.

Ok, rant off.

The last one that I was talking to has gone silent. I think she I friended me. Oopsie! Guess the fragile babies can dish it, but they can’t stand being made fun of.

Even toting their gigantic guns and garlanded all around with swags of ammo, and clip on MREs, they need their entertainment venues, they cry out loud to be with their herd mates to reinforce the group think and bolster their comic book image as a savage warriors, all whilst puffing up their sad tiny bits.

I said no, I just know how exponential functions work and what asymptomatic transmission means.

But he laid out the facts in his brilliant way. Done on social media where others can be educated.

I am now calling out the RW bullshit, telling a family member about a trump supporter who believed trump when he said "it's a hoax". This man put himself and wife into harm's way, and is now dead from covid-19, and his wife might be next.

Too many people have died and suffered because of trump to tolerate his enablers.

Everyone was asked to participate for the safety of all. They were probably even told it was their patriotic duty to "blackout" the lights when asked.

This may not be an apple-to-apple comparison, but I don't think it's too much to say that everyone who can stay home is doing their patriotic duty to control the spread.
