liberals are so bad

I’ve come to understand liberals as actually being more reactionary than the typical petty-bourgeois reactionary Trump/far right voter. Liberals actively and consciously think in terms of “gently caress everyone to my left”. Trump voters don’t actually think that way. They may dislike certain groups or minorities but they don’t think in terms of left right spectrum I don’t think. The entire raison d’etre of liberalism is controlling and containing everyone to their left, and this is pretty openly acknowledged, it’s not really a secret

Considering the only evidence - unless there was an actual study finally done of which I am ignorant - for ocular transmission besides anecdote is just the fact that in the original outbreak of WT the stats showed that when you control for all else, folks with glasses seemed to get COVID less I think a full face is unnecessary given how vastly more expensive they are. Glasses should be fine, and if you feel you really need more, just spend a buck on a face shield.

I mean if you're doing really well financially right now, sure, go for it. I probably would if I had the spare money because I'm an anxious baby and the extra emotional comfort would be nice, but yeah. If you want to get a better protection/cost tradeoff, you're probably just better off buying more filters, more razors if you're a beard-grower to keep yourself able to wear your mask after society collapses and you can't buy them at stores anymore, beans for your bean hoard, and whatever.

I’m a lady so I don’t anticipate doing great after society collapses, lol. Thank you for the input tho! I’ve been using the same 6500 + Lincoln Omnishield combo this whole time because I already had them pre-pandemic but it’s a bulky combo. Pairing the Aura with the Omnishield is more comfortable but I keep thinking there might be something better.

Absolutely try ordering a different model/size respirator if you can afford it. There is a chance that you find it more comfortable or better fitting, and if not you have a backup just in case.

I mean I think it's pretty funny they haven't come out and said it's airborne, or that it's serious, or that this is the greatest immediate threat America has faced in any of our lifetimes and that the failure of the administration to treat it with the gravitas it deserves is at best dereliction of duty and at worst tantamount to biological treason.

Also I think Wallensky gave a speech.

Yeah, those are the overall hospitalization numbers which are also roughly 60/40 split. The pediatric numbers are in this post and similar:

I like how he's saying "about half" for a 60/40 split when I absolutely guarantee if these numbers were reversed he would be saying "a majority with, not for"

i mean i know the loving point is for liberals to justify their inaction, but what loving use is this data if you have zero basis for comparison. like, what has this split been for the entirety of the pandemic?

i can also see these stats getting juked pretty easy

No, I think Trump voters are very focused on hating the entire political spectrum to the left of them. They’re extremely aware of them even if they’re so willfully ignorant / addicted to hyperbole that they lump communists and liberals together. Contrary to this post, most people think of Trump voters having owning the libs / spite / hate as their raison d’etre. It’s possible to condemn the Democrats without praising the Republicans.
