I realise mike and ohers really want this stuff to go away and I agree yet I want to make some points to sort of I hope, help it finish. I'm not looking to enter into discussion,just a sort of 'that's it".
This is an era of low concentration span, disconnection and confusing freedom with licence. Every conceivable type of wit and nit wit exists and surrounds us. We, with little knowledge of what is truly 'leadership' call and elect and work for people with little skill commonly shown to generally be psychopaths, prodigious liars and narcissists if not just rotten to the core. They also exist in your bus, your school your locality your religion.
Many things trouble people in our unjust, unstable and warlike society and they are looking for something to resist and destroy..e.g. the BPM rampages of immense injustice to commerce and yet the events still happen.
The virus and the very little actually known about its transmission, longevity and whether a vaccine can see it 'out' over many decades offers an opportunity for a whole range of reactions..and angers and absurdities, especially with 'sport'. Addiction to sport is no different from other addictions other than perhaps incurable. Sport is being used to 'calm the people' whilst the rest, the unaddicted, may wonder 'why???
Surely, and I hate wearing masks even as PPE on sites or spraying harmful chemicals, it's time we just got on with it and wore the masks, ensured the distancing and for the better or worse support each other in the processes and protocol so that we can take it step by step.
If you are a carrier,should you just be patted on the head if somehow infecting others "oh well it's you right to do as you please". My retort is "stop the bitching, whining, faux-expertise, social media nuisance and trying to take sides...or bowing to 'leaders'in denial and that narcissistic ignoramus posturing and parodying his stupidity exhibited in hiring and firing anyone who doesn't meet his kaleidoscopic needs and let's just get on with the business and the personal frustrations will significantly lower ....as they do for incarcerated prisoners. If 80% turned out to be wasted activity but lives are saved I see that as 'well worth the pain'. Look at the task, look at the tools extant and being developed and work with those who see a serious disease issue. If you are right...well, you will be right but if you are wrong....you will be reprehensible. Theoretically all the 'refusers' could be isolated and locked away somewhere and left to fate but much as that thought has potential, it has no practicality. Can we just get on with it without having to fight people who seem to be determined to support the virus through what no one can seriously call 'safe behaviour'. Bear with us through this obligation rather than choice, to support the progress in science which may be what saves mankind...?
