This is being buried by both liberal and conservative media. It’s fucking wild how bad this is without anyone knowing.
To be fair, what even is the fucking point of reporting it anymore? We saw what ended up happening with covid, where even otherwise right-minded people started having tantrums about masks and vaccines. The vast majority of people are not going to take precautions with a new pandemic, I half expect the right wingers to start deliberately sneezing in each others faces and asking if we're triggered by it. We're screwed if another pandemic happens, and reporting on it won't even remotely change that, as a species overall we just be too stupid to survive
Yes, when I visited the USA during COVID people actively got into my face and coughed at my face. Intentionally, to be clear.
This was out in public in places like supermarkets.
Absolutely abhorrent people. I'm glad I'm back in Europe for the next pandemic, much safer.
You know I'm all about making sure my country's lies are out in the open but man everyone everywhere I live in USA was masked up minus the couple of idiots that exist in every country. Y'all I'm mad at this shit that's going on too but this statement is a false blanket statement.
I think it varied wildly by location.
