....and nothing can stop it.
At dinner last week, we were seated next to a prominent Judge. She was talking about how she had been double vaxxed and very upset about the stories of people just like her getting Covid. 'What is it all for?', she lamented. Dropping a smattering of vulgarities you could hear her frustration building. She said 'no way' was she getting the booster and she will not be wearing a mask, either. She even said 'the whole thing is beginning to look like bullshit.'
It was glorious. She is a big fish in Brevard County, FL.
I was living with a friend for two years who was very strongly opinionated in matters of engineering as he was a very competent electrical engineer. He also hated Trump and thought I was just blindly being taken in by right-wing propaganda. When everything started in March 2020 I was paying attention and figured out quickly what was going on. I tried explaining it to him but he thought I was crazy, even though he agreed with me on some points. I showed him Plandemic 2 when it came out and I think he tuned most of it out. We could never talk about it without arguing. He thought it was all just a crazy conspiracy theory. We had a falling out eventually and I haven't talked to him in months.
“Crazy!” ... “conspiracy theory!”
