A lot of Democrats lost their entire minds when Youngkin won the governor's seat. But the psychosis revealed its extent when the mask mandate was dropped. Let's look at how some of the people have gone completely over the deep end. From the Washington Post:
In Virginia Beach, a mother is sending frantic emails to her school board, begging them to reverse their mask-optional policy to protect the life of her 14-year-old daughter who has a heart condition.
"Frantic."
Not that I'm not sympathetic to the child's heart condition but that's no reason to impose on everybody else. We used to understand that.
In Arlington, a teenage girl broke down sobbing this week as she asked her parents for help navigating the suddenly thorny social dynamics between masked and unmasked friends — leading her mother to pull her from school for a mental health day.
"Broke down sobbing."
There are a lot of people to blame here, but I put that on the parents. Simply put, those who insist on putting something on or in you in order to be your "friend" is a bully and should be cut off. Period.
in Chesapeake, Va., on Tuesday, the first day her school district stopped requiring masks in accordance with Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s mask-optional executive order, ninth-grade English teacher Amanda Lambert awoke unsure if she would go to work.
because of her blood-clotting disorder, she was unlikely to live through “the next round” of coronavirus variants if she contracted the illness and had to go on a ventilator. “Being intubated,” she thought to herself, “is signing your own death certificate.”
Now I'm slightly sympathetic to this teacher. The shots can cause blot clotting. The infection can cause blood clotting. That's a tough call. Still though, doesn't give her any rights to force other people to put something on or in their bodies.
as teachers reentered classrooms where children were suddenly allowed to appear maskless.
"Allowed."
This type of language continues to bother me to no end. Like we need permission from some entity to go about our lives without some piece of cloth that has *been known* to have zero effects on transmission of viruses.
"Youngkin’s controversial executive order,..., asserting that parents have the right to decide whether their children wear face coverings in school. "
I am absolutely bothered by the idea that a governor has to (or has the power to) declare whether I have the right to determine what I do or do not do to keep myself or children I may have healthy. As I've said a couple of times in writing and in videos, prior to 2020 I had been operating under the assumptions that there were bright line things that the state, at least in America, would not and could not cross. I was very mistaken.
A Washington Post analysis found that, as of Friday, more than half of Virginia districts had opted to ignore the governor’s order
Two things: First, I would put down cold hard cash (pre-inflation) that these districts are in "blue" Virginia. Second, I would bet that these people would be calling it "insurrection" if it went the other way. This is why it shouldn't even be something that can be done (in either direction).
" the fallout from a directive that many said felt like a poorly thought-through political ploy with profound health and academic consequences for Virginia’s students and teachers."
'Fallout"? "Poorly thought out"? What is there to think about? If you are so propagandized that you think YOU need to put on a piece of cloth that is known to do diddly squat, KNOCK. YOURSELF. OUT.
Let me tell you a story. Early in my blackjack playing days, I played in casinos that allowed smoking, I hate cigarette smoke. And it's bad for you. So I brought a valved mask to wear. Guess what? Not a damn body said anything to me. I was the only person I saw in this huge casino with a mask on. You know what else? It only worked a little bit and was very uncomfortable. I ended up just dealing with it by staying in the least smokey areas and leaving anytime a person sat down near me with a cigarette. I was free to choose and I made choices. That's how it goes. There is nothing to "think about".
Lero, who identifies as politically independent, said in an interview that he dislikes masks, which he finds uncomfortable. But he doesn’t mind wearing them in school because he knows some teachers feel unsafe otherwise.
While I'm appreciative that Lero is considering the teacher's feelings, this is bad in the long run. There's being considerate and there is enabling psychosis. Once again, the masks, short of well fitted and *never touched* N95 ones, are useless. Wearing one is symbolic of The Psychosis and it needs to stop. Lero doesn't understand that his "compliance" only opens the door to more onerous "asks". Of course Lero is already being groomed to be the new "highly compliant" citizen who can be imposed upon with a simple appeal of "feeling safe".
"“im just kindly asking you not to make life anymore chaotic than it already is.”"
Here's how you do that: Stop imposing yourself on other people.
" Adjusting her own KN95 mask,"
Translation: "After contaminating her expensive mask, which was improperly situated and therefore had already exposed her to any and everything in the air,"
Lambert willed herself to behave normally with the masked and unmasked alike.
If you have to "will yourself to behave normally" when you see or deal with someone who doesn't have a mask on YOU are a victim of The Psychosis and should get yourself deprogrammed.
The most dangerous moment, she said, came when she walked over to a student who was struggling and needed help — and who had pulled down her cloth mask, tucking it below her chin.
"Dangerous"
You know, a lot of these people need professional help.
"“There was that split second of, ‘Oh, I need to tell her to pull up her mask,’ ” Lambert said. “And then I remembered: Oh, wait. I can’t.”"
"I can't."
This, ladies and gentlemen is THE ISSUE. The mask mandate and the vaccine mandate is about control. Like I've written and said many times, these people are punks who are using the state to impose themselves on others. They "can't" make other people do anything because they [rightfully] fear they would be met with a violent response, so they enlist the state, with it's monopoly on violence to force compliance from people they otherwise couldn't threaten.
This "I can't" is exactly the issue. So now that they do not have the "power" to coerce others, they feel powerless and it *reaaaally* bother's them. That others are not living in The Psychosis bothers them. In fact seeing others not living The Psychosis is a *part of* The Psychosis.
Oh did I mention that this Lambert woman is obese? She couldn't be bothered with changing her dietary habits and exercise habits which is going to cause her health issues anyway but wants to impose herself on others.
Apart from that — and the ever-present worry that she might catch the virus
"Ever present worry" of catching COVID. If she was THAT worried she'd be in the gym. She had two years to get herself in shape and failed to do so. Do you know what kind of fitness gains can be had in 2 years? But aside from that there is a difference between accepting that everyone gets their turn eventually and worrying about catching the virus. I have been operating under the assumption that I can or will catch the virus at any time. Hence I have a regimen to slow the replication process so that I don't get pulled into stage II of the disease where the body's immune system goes into overdrive and THAT process kills.
So in a sense this woman is a *victim* of Fauci et. al. who have suppressed early treatment in favor of the WEF agenda.
"Loudoun saw about 100 students show up maskless over the course of the week, said spokesman Wayde Byard, and those students were placed apart from masked peers in common areas such as auditoriums, gyms or libraries. No students were punished, Byard said."
The school district that allows sexual assault...
Anyway, these students WERE in fact punished AND discriminated against.
"Public Schools spokeswoman Helen Lloyd said only 26 of the system’s 180,000 students refused to put masks on, earning them one-day suspensions. "
Not surprised. The next generation is being groomed to accept authoritarianism as normal.
"In Chesapeake, mother Kasha Herek switched her child to home schooling this week after the end of required masking led the 9-year-old to fear going to school...
said she has kept her son home this week after the boy started crying and asked if he was going to die at school. "
Reminder that children are at the lowest risk of both severe disease as well as death. As a matter of fact, when looking at the ages mentioned here, most charts have their hospitalization and deaths at zero because there are so few (I have posted many such charts here). If your 9 year old kid thinks he is going to die because someone is not wearing a mask at school, there is failure all around BEGINNING at home.
“All that he’s done is divide our state and made this a political thing "
No he did no such thing. These people were all happy as a pig in slop when they could force masks on people. Now they lost that power and its 'division"
You can **** off this that nonsense. You all suffering The Psychosis have made it political. You COULD have minded your own business and chosen to do what made YOU comfortable, but instead you all wanted to impose on other people. THAT is what made it political.
"Then she found herself seated near four unmasked students, which made her “extremely nervous,” "
This sounds like some school desegregation shit. Again, children are the least vulnerable population. No child should be "nervous" unless they are obese and/or diabetic.
" She said people, all the way up to Youngkin, are prioritizing what they perceive as personal rights over other people’s health and safety.“Listen to ourselves. Do we not care about each other?” said Kerr-Hobert, 42, who has two children in the school system. “It bothers me to the core what our country is becoming.""
Yeah so in America, the constitutional republic that it is, the INDIVIDUAL has rights. Not the group. There is no "other people's health and safety" exception to those individually held rights. This underscores another rather large problem that the last two years has exposed: The total lack of understanding on how American governance is supposed to work per the Constitution and law arising out of it. The reason this chick is bothered "to the core" about what the "country is becoming" is because she lacks understanding of WHAT the country "IS". I agree that there is a problem with "what the country is becoming". It is becoming a socialist state and far too many people are OK with that because they think they benefit from that change and will only learn too late what they actually have signed up for.
"“My daughter broke down crying, saying, ‘I can’t make these decisions. They’re too hard,’ ” Webb said. “This order is ending friendships. It’s just so divisive.”"
The order is not ending friendships. You (and your friends) lack of respect for the rights of others is ending friendships. But look at the language here "I can't make these decisions". When you think you can't make decisions then you want the government to step in and make decisions for you. That is giving up responsibility for your decisions. That's a part of The Psychosis. If these people understood the following well known facts:
1) Masks, with the exception of N95 or better masks, that are properly fitted and sealed and uncontaminated by frequent removal, are absolutely useless when it comes to blocking the virus. Period.
2) The current "vaccines" are nothing of the sort and do not prevent transmission or infection of said virus.
3) none of the current vaccines are effective against the current strain (Omicron).
4) Everybody will have their turn.
5) Early treatment is key.
Then there would be no need to have a friendship threatened. It is the ignorance of these facts that is leading people to kill friendships.
So this article is a great example of The Psychosis. The Post is going after Youngkin because he just won and he is a Republican and they are mad about it. In plain contrast is NY Gov Hochul who nobody has anything to say in regards to her mandate because it's what the purveyors of The Psychosis want to see done.
