[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s the opposite of APS SmartRestart and how can I join?[/quote]

Smart Restart isn't affiliates with APS.  (Thank God.) There are crazies in APE too. My advice? Neither group is worth joining.[/quote]

Smart Restart isn't crazy. Unless you think wanting outdoor lunch is crazy.

APE (the open up at all costs, anti-mitigation crowd) just paints anyone who isn't in their group as crazy. [/quote]

You want to quickly see crazy, compare SmartRestart's fear-mongering Twitter page (which you can tell is done by the self-proclaimed ventilation expert/actual stationery saleswoman) vs. APE's Twitter page citing things like actual science and contextualizing risk.  In fact, most of the fear-mongering comments on DCUM sound like things on SmartRestart's Twitter page -> what a coincidence!  FWIW - most people in APE are Democrats whereas most people in SmartRestart are so far left they would have voted for Nader in 2000.

SmartRestart really is like a cult, I'm just wondering when the ventilation queen will start monetizing it like Scientology.  One former member, COVID doomsayer in chief, Eric Feigl-Ding (a nutritionist), has already monetized it while moving to Austria to have his kid attend in-person school.

Thankfully, the State of VA yanked away the authority from local jurisdictions to close this school year. You can see from this board that many of the same nuts from Arlington would close schools this year if they could.  I'd bet they're keeping their own kids home again too so this is all (once again) really about FOMO (can't have other kids getting the superior form of education, in-person school, when their kids won't be getting it).[/quote]

I’d take that bet. Most people I know affiliated at all with Smart Restart are sending their kids in person. [/quote].

You have an odd view of what SR is about…either reading too many right wing conspiracy theories or pushing them yourself.

I’m in SR and I’m sending my kids to school. A lot of SR parents sent their kids in person last year too. No one in SR is trying to shut down. We want in person school. We do care about doing it safely. I’m worried about my elementary unvacced kids at lunch and I’m worried about the nut job APE crowd hiding their kids symptoms or contacts.

And I’m also worried that the ant mitigation denial APE agenda will lead to shutdowns and sickness and maybe even virtual which my kids don’t want.

We should all be working together to make sure schools can open safely. Sad some don’t see that.
