Meanwhile, back in reality, we have been averaging about 140 cases a day over the past week. Restaurants and schools are open, with some restrictions. Though there have been a few serious reactions to the vaccine, they are quite rare. Covid departments in hospitals are closing- there are far...

Something patriotic perhaps: defend my country, responsibility towards my country- that sort of thing. Which reminds me- you spoke of personal responsibility- but haven't defined it yet.

What I've mostly heard is that people join the army for personal reasons, or to protect their Freedom.

"Personal responsibility" means what, exactly? Give examples.

Oh, I'm listening. I'm carefully listening to what you say too. The only freedom you want is selfish- for yourself. The only responsibility you want is for yourself.

And yet, these people show no self-discipline, and behave selfishly.

My point is this: Many here are very concerned for their freedom. I hear this in the Covid threads, and also here. Freedom! Freedom! What I hear little of is: Responsibility. Freedom without responsibility- what does that sound like?

Thanks for the videos- but what's your point?

You are thinking that the viruses are much smaller than the pore in the mask. Which is true- but the viruses don't get exhaled as individual units. You don't want to give up your freedoms. Freedoms are everything to you. What is lacking is responsibility.

Masks help- they are not 100%, but they help. Slowing down the spread of this virus help control it. Masks don't hurt businesses or people- what's the big deal? Vaccines work. Remember Smallpox? Polio?

Everybody knows this. Neither are seat belts. Nor are antibiotics. What's your point?

Stripe, and many others here, don't think something is real unless they see it with their own eyes. He's in Taiwan, which managed the crisis fantastically well, so he figures there ain't no virus

You have repeatedly stated that "the virus was over months ago". You haven't once presented evidence that this is true.

Despite the fact that the US elected a Black president, it is likely the most racist western country out there. Obama was hardly 'Black", except as far as skin color.

Good for you! I served in the Israeli army for a relatively short time. My sons did full service. Here it is expected. People identify with this country, and the need to defend it is real. Most of the answers on this thread disappointed me, though they didn't surprise me. Most here spoke of...

Not everything is worth my wasting time on

tell that to the people in Brazil or the US

Great! Then you can be happy! But- why do you guys always try to convert people?

"Revelation" is part of the Christian Bible- not mine. Nor Jesus' Bible. And the Bible isn't a continuous storyline. It has historical sections that follow more or less chronologically, but a continuous storyline? No. Try reading it start to end.
