Dumb APEer is now complaining about wearing masks because of the "CDC guidelines". But when CDC guidelines said 6' she DGAF what the CDC said.
Why won't she go away?!
She is so insufferable. From her heart wrenching (insert eye roll) “no zoom, mama” story from last spring to her tone deafness to her frequent gaslighting when she claims she didn’t say something that she literally said in that same post...she’s one of the worst coming out of the APE group. Seriously, she’s like a bad SNL sketch character.
Can we just STOP trash talking people here? This is an actual human being we're talking about. You haven't walked in her shoes. And last I checked, no one is coming here to trash the "SR" crew as "Dumb" and "wenches". I'm so sick of the attacking of the open schools folks -- it's exhausting. Even Florida didn't see the spike everyone expected.

After a partial lockdown in the spring of 2020, Florida and Texas were among the states that most aggressively reopened their economies. Most businesses were allowed to resume operations in May or June of last year. Florida never instituted a public mask mandate; Texas was the first state to revoke its mask mandate this spring.
California and New York, on the other hand, have been more cautious. They didn’t let some businesses, like movie theaters and gyms, reopen until months after their more conservative counterparts had already done so. Their state mask mandates are still at least partially in effect.
And yet, looking at the case and death numbers since the coronavirus pandemic began, it’s not obvious which states were cautious and which were not. New York, the original epicenter of the outbreak, has endured the second most deaths per capita behind New Jersey (271 per 100,000). Florida and Texas, despite much criticism of their laissez-faire approaches, rank right in the middle among states (26th and 24th, respectively) in the number of deaths per 100,000 people. California fared only marginally better, sitting at 30th.
After a year of debates over mask mandates, lockdowns, and school closures, that mixed evidence might suggest a certain fatalism: Did none of these state policies really matter? Or was the virus going to spread no matter what states did? Was it all for nothing?
