Relevant Tangent posted:they didn't want to admit how badly they'd hosed up in the first place and were desperately hoping it would magically go away The fundamental rift comes from how authorities must insist that droplet transmission is the primary way that COVID spreads, as opposed to aerosol transmission. In essence, both are true, but anyone in a positions of authority refuses to accept aerosols as a prime-mover, or ignore it altogether, because to acknowledge aerosol transmission would mean that a lot of the things that we allow people to do nowadays, shouldn't be allowed. If COVID only ever spread through droplets: Most any kind of mask would do. Cloth mask, gaiters, surgical masks. Aerosol transmission would mean we need to be telling people that even surgical masks aren't enough and everyone needs to be wearing N95s / KN95s / KF94s (and that people need to cover their goddamn nose when they wear a mask) Social distancing might be enough. Since you can't ballistically spit a droplet farther than six feet, then even if you were NOT wearing a mask, you still wouldn't be able to infect anyone. Aerosol transmission would mean that social distancing is only valuable in terms of reducing crowding in indoor areas by adjusting maximum capacity of a given space, but doesn't actually grant any protection on its own because the aerosolized particles can cross the room Plastic barriers would work. If you put a physical barrier between my mouth and your face (not counting the mask), then I can't infect you, because the droplets always hit the acrylic pane between us. Aerosol transmission would mean that this doesn't actually work - at best, it would slow the rate at which any one space is "invaded" by aerosolized COVID, but it still means indoor spread is very possible, and indeed might even be worsened depending on how the barriers interact with airflow. Ventilation would not be needed. If COVID isn't airborne, then there's no need to make sure fresh/filtered air is constantly being fed into a space. Aerosol transmission would mean that it would be irresponsible to allow for indoor dining without instituting some kind of ventilation/air-filtration standards. It would be irresponsible to allow for full-capacity workplaces, for the same reasons. It would be irresponsible to allow for face-to-face classes, for the same reasons, and so on The moment that a health official acknowledges that COVID is airborne, they have to admit to themselves that not only have we been doing things wrong for two years running, it means we've been wasting time for two years. We should have been retrofitting as many spaces as possible with opened windows. We should have been giving away air filtration systems to any office, mall, or other indoor space that can't afford to have its windows opened. We should have been giving away N95s all this time and teaching people that some masks are better than others. But that would be too much work, that would cost too much, and that would cause too many economically-valuable activities to have to be banned for safety reasons. So we don't do it. The government's moves to bury OSHA's COVID guidelines in Q1 2021, followed by the CDC's recommendation to drop masking in May of that year, just before the OSHA guidelines were set to come out, would be a conspiracy worthy of this thread.

It's just strike busting, OP. Everything looks like a nail when you've carried the union busting hammer for so long. The sick/disabled workers (and those avoiding becoming so) are the union on strike. That's the way the entire monied class sees it

little timmy johnson from the aqua room was actually a very short undercover operator named hank florez. he iced the shooter with his concealed service weapon before blending back into the crowd. sadly his mission to root out a russian mole at the school known as "putin's hand" had to be scrapped, leading directly to the election of donald trump. florez was last seen trying to apologize to a unidentified woman who kept screaming about "her turn"

Not saying this isn't suspicous but I've done some rifle drill and seen a few AR-15s getting spiked into the concrete, they can get a good bounce sometimes if they hit right IIRC they usually flew the furthest when they landed on the butt

I've heard that people do sometimes do weird things like double shoot or whatever, which could explain the jam. The behind the head thing depends a lot on the angle.

I'd believe the gun jamming after being fired in an awkward position, it can happen when not holding it well in a normal grip (limp wristing)
