Not sure I understand the reason for this post/rant? This movement is called “THE GREAT AWAKENING”, shouldn’t we be applauding people for finally waking up rather than saying “you stupid fuck you should have been awake already”?
Seems in really bad taste to just start fighting between ourselves because some of us were awake before others.
I agree some people are just looking for a pat on the back, but hey if it means another person willing to go against the public narrative, that’s fine with me. Pats on the back for everyone willing to fight for their rights, no matter how long it took them to do it.
Well said!
I find some of (the few) 'later awakeners' I know, are the strongest advocates and keen learners. Their wake up call was just set for a bit later is all...
I’ve been “crazy” for years, no one is surprised when I’m awake. When people they once saw eye to eye with start changing their minds, that’s more powerful.
Exactly. Personally I haven't worn a mask for the past year. I've had mothers pass me in the grocery store and gather their children close by like I'm a leper. Some of my best friends who also thought this was all BS wore their face diapers because they're just not the confrontation type and didn't see the harm in putting one on. But the more time they spent with me the bolder they got. Now those people are some of the strongest anti-mask people I know. And I'm proud of them. They may have taken the scenic route but they finally got here and I applaud them. Not sure what the point of this post was. Slapping people down & accusing them of seeking a pat on the back while ultimately seeking your own pat on the back?
Because the same person that removed their mask once and then posted on GAW for their participation award will slap that mask right back on.
There has been no real awakening and definitely no "Great Awakening".
They did something and "nobody seemed to care". They are using the reaction of others to gauge their own level of compliance. Because nobody said anything, they feel like they've accomplished something. What they really did was wait out the fight until public opinion changed.
I've been through three jobs this year because I will not comply so to wake up and see multiple, "I finally took my mask off" post from people that chose to live comfortably while patriots suffered is mildly infuriating to those of us that stuck to our guns and refused this unconstitutional mandate.
I quit claiming to be a "Christian" when the "Christians" of this world allowed their religion to be desecrated by Dr. Fraudci and turned their backs on their fellow brothers and sister in Christ. The pastor of the church I grew up in would have picked up a rifle and defended his God and his flock. He had a sack. These pansy ass preachers now that are embracing this Godless ideology deserve to take a lightning strike from the almighty in the keister.
It's not "following a preacher" it's a comparison of how watered down Christianity has become over the last 15 years by using the preacher of the church I grew up in as compared to (if you must know) a preacher in the exact same church now that chooses to minister to his flock via Facebook and pretends he's doing what God would have him do while the rest of the brainwashed church pretends they don't know better.
Once again, I never gave up on God. God is very real. I gave up on the group-think churches and I feel no need to enter a church and try to change the minds of the ignorant that have chosen to believe a preacher over the word of God.
I realized that a long, long, time ago and blamed it on churches but I quit claiming to be a Christian in 2020 ... there is no longer any difference between modern Christianity and cultist group think now.
I don't understand that, to be a Christian means to be a "follower of Christ". It does not mean "follower of the church". So, if you are still a follower of Christ, it means you are Christian.
That's the problem with Christians now. You accuse me of "giving up on Christ" when I've plainly stated that I gave up on Christianity and the church, not Christ.
Does Christ need me? Hell no! I need him, I can't give up on Christ because I can literally do nothing for Christ but somehow you believe Christ is Christianity which the Bible is implicit in saying numerous times that they are two different entities.
The church is an arm of Christ but what does the Bible say about an appendage that offends God?
Cut it the fuck off, that's what God says to do.
So who's the real believer here? Those of us willing to call out the false doctrine laid out in the churches or those of you willing to play along when you know better?
This might piss you off, but I put on a mask for the first time ever yesterday.
It was only for a few minutes, and yes it felt wrong as fuck, but it happened.
On the plus side I finally got some testing done at the hospital I had been putting off for over a year. Was it worth it? To me, in the moment, it was. I'm going to wear one again when I go in for surgery too, because dying on this hill isn't going to help my kids as much as living to fight another day.
Turns out this whole time I've been terrified of lung cancer it's just been my spleen needing to go.
Judge all you want, just thought I'd mention that even a hardcore motherfucker like me can't always deal in absolutes.
I was pretty pleased myself, it's been a big stress for a long time. Shame is I could have delt with it long ago, but stubbornly waited until the pain brought me to my knees. You should have seen the look on the nurses face when I said half the reason I didn't want to come in was that I was afraid they would stick me on a resperator and kill me for profit. Might have had to put on a mask to enter the premesis, but I was a red pill dropping machine once I got in.
Lol. Good for you! It’s fun dropping red pills in the medical field! Our patients are dumbfounded when my coworker and I tell them we aren’t getting the experiment shot. The look on their face is priceless! ?
There's a huge difference between being made to wear one on a handful of occasions (I wore one once when I took my mother to the hospital myself) and wearing one on a daily basis then taking it off once and telling every body you're a hero.
I get it. I felt smaller when I had to put it on. I didn't like it at all. People act amazed that I've made it through this by simply not complying but I'm amazed that they have managed to muzzle up with seemingly no negative psychological effects.
I never said I go to Walmart, I've been boycotting Walmart since they put the receipt checkers out front. If I did go to Walmart though, I wouldn't avoid it and then say that I was supporting mom and pop stores when in fact I was just avoiding a mask altercation and happened to go the mom and pop store because of it.
That sounds really harsh , but I saw the 2 weeks to "flatten the curve " for what it was and knew it was a very slippery slope. Then the "you can go out to eat , but you must wear your mask to a table and then you can take it off, the Covid can't get you when you sit down" I marveled aloud that people were falling for this BS and companions saw me as being a rabble rouser. Oh well, I have only worn a mask when a medical facility would not give me treatment without one . I am not in my mind a sunshine patriot.
While this post is written with some emotional fire from the individual, it is a harsh reality lesson that EVERYONE needs to take note of. Regaining our freedom and rights after giving them away without a fight is a much harder battle. Never give them up, always be the example, without fear of retaliation by public opinion.
Rights ain’t for pussies. You have to actively protect them on a daily basis, being unrelentless in the procurement of said rights or have them stripped. There is no middle ground. Choose your comfort and security now and watch your kids and grandkids have none.
Why don't you fuck off instead? Nobody needs to hear your preaching ass. Life is tough and not everyone can claim to be a virtuous hero, like you. You should be happy that people are starting to grow a pair and fight back with you.
Learn to stand on your own beliefs and it doesn't matter what others do. There is a comfort in knowing you have not sacrificed your dignity and somehow it turns out okay even if it appears to not be.
I went to the local post office this week, and everyone was wearing a mask but me. As I was walking out, an older gentleman stopped me and asked me if I was confronted about not wearing a mask. I said ‘no sir!’ and he sighed in relief and yanked his off. It was glorious!
"They will always attack the people who come out swinging. Just look at some of these comments." - It's like an echo - you yell out into the void "I HATE YOU, YOU HAVE NOTHING OF VALUE TO SAY! I AM BETTER THAN YOU" and then you're surprised when it comes back to you, like a mirror. You get what you give. Anger attracts more angry people. Emotional desperation attracts more desperate people. That's why forums become "toxic".
Someone who wants to spread love and compassion :) If we work together and treat others like we'd like to be treated then that will be reflected on us.
Bingo
I’m banned from three stores for refusing. Fuck em. I run a business and it cost me a great inconvenience to switch but they lost thousands from me. And I’ll never go back.
I understand that you are feeling exhausted, but people are waking up and starting to ignore the mask mandates. There is no vaccine passport yet and I think it's amazing that people are waking up all over the world. We should keep applauding everyone who dares stand up for themselves. TOGETHER, UNITED we are strong, divided we are weak. Instead of ostracizing people who have come to learn the truth later than us, we should embrace them with open arms and teach them more! Remember that they want us divided (feeling isolated), hateful and in fear. Not letting that happen!
It is called the THE GREAT AWAKENING for a reason. I'm happy that folks are waking up. I would never attack these people - or feel anger, honestly, I do not understand your anger - Like I said, I'm thankful they are now awake.
You're grossly oversimplifying. Reality is not a zero sum game.
Everything exists on a spectrum of sorts. It is illogical and unhelpful to expect all people to wake up at the same time. You're only hurting the cause with this self-righteous toxicity.
The majority will not begin to wake until things are far more obvious than they are now. That does not make them bad people.
I read this wrong, I thought you got a pat on the back for not wearing a mask. Ya know the prodigal son had a brother that did everything he thought was correct...then he was a dick about it too.
If I "must" be muzzled, I use the most offensive bandana I can get my hands on. Usually a political flag, and usually states my intentions directly on it.
SYLMC
only time I've been muzzled was at my kids hospital when he broke his leg
I've worn one twice, once to take mom to the hospital and once to vote. I've posted many anti-mask post and even a detailed post on how to use religious exemptions to get past an employment mask mandate/temperature check in the state of Virginia that we'll all find out if it works soon because I just entered a lawsuit with a nationwide general contractor because of it.
I've done what would have been the impulse of every single American 50 years ago and I live in Hampton Roads, Virginia. Notoriously liberal with a 54% black population.
What I didn't do was make excuses and value my creature comforts over my dignity and, infinitely more importantly, the lives of my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.
I get it man. Been getting less and less tolerant of people with no clue on the actual efficacy of mask have straw man arguments about why it is important to wear mask or how it’s not that big of a deal.
IT IS A HUGE FUCKING DEAL
This is ground zero for the showdown between the NWO and Muricans and 3/4 of GAW is already complying with the NWO while pretending to be patriots.
Yes, the "what is the big deal" How hard is it ?" really pisses me off. Swoosh right over their heads. "I just want to keep other people safe " Swoosh .
The horrifying shame of all this is IT NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED! TBS, it revealed the worst in the ones who submitted and those who advantaged the tyranny for all it was worth. (Karens and Kens, we see you)..
I honestly believe it's End Times Programming we were born with and given from the LORD! It's obvious to us when we see the lies thrown at us from the father of lies! We're geared to keep watch for deception and the Mark of the Beast!
It reminds me of the movie Divergent. They test the population to see what faction they align with but some citizens are free thinkers and don't align with any faction. They see clearly and are hunted because of that.
Not sure I understand the reason for this post/rant? This movement is called “THE GREAT AWAKENING”, shouldn’t we be applauding people for finally waking up rather than saying “you stupid fuck you should have been awake already”?

Jesus what a whiny fuckin pussy
You want a medal little boy?
I dont and wont wear the mask. I tell others why it's a bad idea if they wanna hear it
To get mad at others for finding courage on their time is fucking stupid
Grow a pair, keep the mask off, and realize the world doesn't march to your step
I bet you claim to be Christian too
I quit claiming to be a "Christian" when the "Christians" of this world allowed their religion to be desecrated by Dr. Fraudci and turned their backs on their fellow brothers and sister in Christ.

The church's version of Christianity has been an aboninational to the faith for Centuries. Glad you finally realized in 2020 though..
I realized that a long, long, time ago and blamed it on churches but I quit claiming to be a Christian in 2020 ... there is no longer any difference between modern Christianity and cultist group think now.
I don't understand that, to be a Christian means to be a "follower of Christ". It does not mean "follower of the church". So, if you are still a follower of Christ, it means you are Christian.
Sounds like you never believed in the 1st place
Sucks to be you I guess. Enjoy living in hell faggot
Or maybe believed enough to study the word of God and noticed the differences in what was being preached from the pulpit and what the good book says.
Christ said love thy enemy
Christ never said give up on me because of assholes
Man Up
That's the problem with Christians now. You accuse me of "giving up on Christ" when I've plainly stated that I gave up on Christianity and the church, not Christ.

This might piss you off, but I put on a mask for the first time ever yesterday.

Judge all you want, just thought I'd mention that even a hardcore motherfucker like me can't always deal in absolutes.
As someone who works w/ oncology patients every day, I’m so happy to hear that you don’t have lung cancer! Praying your surgery goes smoothly! ??
I was pretty pleased myself, it's been a big stress for a long time. Shame is I could have delt with it long ago, but stubbornly waited until the pain brought me to my knees.

Lol. Good for you! It’s fun dropping red pills in the medical field! Our patients are dumbfounded when my coworker and I tell them we aren’t getting the experiment shot. The look on their face is priceless! ?
Proud of you for that Anon. Cool thing is these folks who defer their judgment to the "experts" will likely give your opinion considerable weight.
Good stuff!
There's a huge difference between being made to wear one on a handful of occasions (I wore one once when I took my mother to the hospital myself) and wearing one on a daily basis then taking it off once and telling every body you're a hero.
Maybes I'm just feeling defensive because it felt like a betrayal of my own beliefs.
This is why CrsCrpr's message is important.
At least you're honest with yourself, and willing to be honest on a public forum. Nothing wrong with getting your blood flowing to wake up.
I get it. I felt smaller when I had to put it on. I didn't like it at all. People act amazed that I've made it through this by simply not complying but I'm amazed that they have managed to muzzle up with seemingly no negative psychological effects.
DO NOT GO TO WAL*MART
Go to Mom&Pop that can’t afford to demand compliance. They ARE. your folks.
Go to Walmart, tell them “No Thank You” at the mask check and keep stepping.
So you support Walmart? What a bunch of commie shit.
See how easy it is to rush to judgement? Must be tough to be perfect, but I wouldn't know either.
I never said I go to Walmart, I've been boycotting Walmart since they put the receipt checkers out front. If I did go to Walmart though, I wouldn't avoid it and then say that I was supporting mom and pop stores when in fact I was just avoiding a mask altercation and happened to go the mom and pop store because of it.
We have dome places here in Greece. I think they were originally Turkish temples or whatever they call them.
Good post! I was about to say that maskless at Walmart is entry level shit. Now, maskless at Costco, that’s some expert level shit

When they said 2 weeks to flatten the curve, I immediately said 6-12 months minimum.

Thank you for spitting the hard truth.
A lot of people on this site are more submerged in "muh feelings" then they'd like to think.
They will always attack the people who come out swinging. Just look at some of these comments.
They need people to beat on their snow globe from time to time so they wake up and pay attention to their community.
Keep up the good fight.

I agree wholeheartedly. Let us embrace our growing collective strength and welcome all newly-awakened!
Still haven’t worn one in public. Have no intentions of wearing one.
Here’s your slow-clap applause.
(The point remains that you need the normies to wake up if you want your country back —and they are—, which IS worth celebrating.)

Some of us live in the more fucked up areas controlled by [them]. And there's a lot here that have just recently begun to wake up. Don't fault them.
Some of us have been scared shitless by [them] for all their lives, so much so, that old habits die hard.
And most of us aren't pissy little pricks like you. Give it a rest.
When did you decide to drop the mask, btw? The beginning, middle, or more recently? Hmm???

I'm an atheist. I'm scared of what might be in Revelation. I can see that down is up, left is right, and good is evil.
You don’t have to be afraid. Repent, believe, and join the victorious team.
As the Lord said, fear not the one who can destroy your body, but fear the one who can cast body and soul into hell.
Satan can touch no Christian in any final sense.
I think so.
It reminds me of the movie Divergent. They test the population to see what faction they align with but some citizens are free thinkers and don't align with any faction. They see clearly and are hunted because of that.

Lmao -bravely taken off your mask until someone tells you to put one on.
