Ever notice how an inconsequential outlier drives the mode? How fear of the non-existent becomes a force shaping opinion and actions. How repeating something baseless often takes root in the minds of enough of the populace to affect the whole.

And their listeners are too stupid to notice the wool being pulled over their eyes
while pulling their legs into Der Orange Führer's rabbit hole.

Wife and I got the second dose of AstraZeneca vaccine yesterday, and mask wearing is mandatory here at the moment.
100% compliance noted.

when I suggest (as I have been since the earlier CDC announcement) that people ought to combine vaccination with indoor masking -

Or you don't see a problem with indoor masking?

I'm suggsting that DU is not immune to the kind of abrasive behavior that we accuse others of, since it has been directed at those of use who have noticed the train heading toward us for months.
