There are a whole lot of chapo fan boys twisting themselves in knots trying to justify Felix's attitudes about being personally inconvenienced at the gym in this thread. Felix basically said on last week's episode that he only really got vaccinated to be able to go to the gym without a mask. And yeah, the horse is way out of the barn with COVID, but this isn't some mitigation method that is some huge burden. Besides, does Felix even do cardio?

He's being a baby about wearing a mask but he's also right that we're not going to do whats actually necessary. I get the frustration but it is less bad to half rear end the covid response than to just throw up our hands and say we should just allow ourselves to be taken by the super virus.

the biggest problem is that the people actually in charge of this have already resigned themselves to us being taken by the super virus so yea it's hard to blame anyone going 'why the gently caress do I have to wear a mask if you're treating it so glibly to begin with' at this point.

lol the actual argument he makes in the thread is annoyance at covid policies constantly useless symbolic measures rather than effective ones that would also take political will to enforce. his exact specific preference with gyms is either a) require vaccinations in order to use them or b) close the gyms is it's too dangerous to keep them open

yea the only actual solution to this poo poo is either lockdowns (never going to happen) or just flat 'you have to show your vaccine card' rules that multiple states have made literally illegal to do.

I'm pretty sure Felix has a touch of that dumb guy "I don't need medication, if I eat well and exercise I'll never get sick" thing going on

Pretty much this. When Felix said "I only got vaccinated to go to the gym without a mask" I think Matt immediately piped in to say "and to not get sick, of course."

I think maybe he’s just acting out because we’re all coming to terms with the grim reality that COVID will never “get better” or “go away” because our society is too brain poisoned to actually take the necessary measures required to protect the population. Covid was already one of the worst things to ever happen in our lifetime, but there’s a new level of disgust and disappointment going on as we witness our government just fully selling us out to this plague because it’s too important to keep the plates spinning a little longer

i'm late but i watched the woodstock doc last week and while I agree with the chapos that it's a poorly made documentary I also found the actual footage of the festival very entertaining and think it's worth watching for that alone if you're interested in that kind of thing. i'd love a cut where it was just the festival footage and the promoters constantly tripping over their dicks

The wet mask thing is true for stopping spread because the water helps give the virus a lil bubble ride. Idk if the same applies for protecting when the mask is wet.

I’m less upset with Felix over the trivial thing (getting mad at media sensationalism) and more upset with him over the really important thing (mispronouncing Ocalan’s name). Seriously man he’s not a jungle cat or a weird Russian triple agent from a fun video game series.

Felix once mispronounced redux and didn't understand what everyone was talking about when he did so.

i thought this was a great review of the woodstock doc, covering a lot of the same territory as chapo (and starting with a hook about aj soprano)

I mean no state is at this point. Some cities are re-instituting mask mandates but I haven't heard anyone talk about shutdowns, despite the GOP's whining.

abbott has gone a step further than most states and entirely banned mask or vaccine mandates. our governor is actively trying to kill us and will see absolutely no repercussions for it thanks in part to the voter suppression bill the GOP will finish forcing through whenever texas house dems eventually have to return to the state
