When I say I’m good, I mean I’M GOOD. It’s hilarious how you feel the need to correct me (and let me know how I REALLY feel because hey, this is DCUM and of course you know better than the actual poster how they feel!) and then announce what a good person you are for “protecting” me. Never change, DCUM. |
I'm glad you feel good. I want you to feel good, and I'm not telling you to feel any differently. I'm simply stating that, despite your feelings, you are not GOOD. You are immunocompromised. You need others to take extra precaution for your safety, and I am happy to do so, by wearing a mask. |
Omg stop being a martyr! I don’t need anyone doing anything for me. Lord some of you are INSUFFERABLE. |
Spend like 5 minutes on certain corners of Twitter or Reddit and then come back to this. YES, there are people who want mandatory masks, schools closed or at least an online option for anyone who wants it, no large concerts/festivals or gatherings, and capacity restrictions on indoor activities like restaurants. Now with Monkeypox too there are people calling to close fitting rooms at stores because trying on clothes is unsafe in their minds. Are these people important or significant in numbers? Probably not. Look how many people are attending festivals and going on with life normally, not just in the US but around the world, and compare them to how many people are locked up in their homes on Twitter. But they are *loud* and can be influential on at least a local level. |
There are plenty of people arguing that we should continue last year's quarantine policies in schools and daycares. Those are significant restrictions keeping kids out of school. I would argue that people don't even think of them as "restrictions" because they've just accepted that kids will be out of the classroom for a quarter(or whatever) of their school year due to quarantines.
Those quarantines are wildly disruptive to kids' education and parents' ability to work to support their children. So yes, there are those of us who care about the fact that covid precautions continue to hurt kids. |
Wearing a mask for protecting the immunocompromised does not make me a martyr. And I am not going to stop taking protective measures for our immunocompromised community just because some anonymous internet person told me to. If you feel like you don't need anyone to do anything for you, then that's a sign that your feelings can't be trusted. Regardless, whether or not you want me to wear a mask for your protection doesn't matter. There are plenty of immunocompromised people who do want me to wear a mask, people I know IRL who aren't anonymous posters on the internet who could be making up any lie to lend creedence to their feelings. I will wear my mask for them, as their needs outweigh yours. |
You’re free to do whatever you want, just as the rest of us are. As long as you don’t go making demands of others I don’t care what you do or don’t do. |
Actually, advocating for the adoption of policies to protect the immunocompromised community is a duty of health itself. So, no, you will not silence me, and you will not cast the immunocompromised community to an early grave. |
Keep these gems coming! Now you’re just pure entertainment. It’s like not being able to look away from an accident scene. |
This is a troll. Has to be. We’ve been had! |
Were you advocating for this pre-covid? |
