Anyone else about sick to fucking death of the term "social distancing"?

A few years ago I had a girlfriend that believed she suffered from every malady that exists....she wore a mask and gloves constantly...now, 4 years later I can see her going shopping wearing an astronaut suit...she probably has a crotchless version too...

crotchless?
 
I love the argument that gets thrown at that statement "well that's because of social distancing!" as we see an infection rate into the 30s. Not that bad of an issue.

The models that assumed a locked down nation, more strict than any of us experienced, still predicted almost 2 orders of magnitude more deaths. It's like the climate change models, except in this case they don't get decades to massage their data and continuously revise their predictions.

There's a limit to how much incompetence the media can cover up. The experts predicted a Black Plague - Spanish Flu combo and instead got influenza. And they were instrumental in facilitating the house arrest of millions of people which may soon become the worse man made disaster of this century.

Now EVERYTHING is a symptom of Covid-19. Pink eye, Covid toes, Covid hands, Covid rash. It’s like they’re making this shit up as they go along just to cover their tracks on this huge farce. The biggest scare now seems to be that if you had it and recovered, you don’t know the internal damage and long term damage it caused. Why are they trying to make this into something more than it is?
 
So some say initial estimates were fabricated. Yeah, or maybe the estimates were estimates

Some say the numbers changed, and therefore fabricated. Yeah, or maybe we developed a better model as the behavior of this was better calculated and understood.

the rest of the planet is doing as we are. No cover-up here

there’s just no reason to let conspiracy leak in here, though that’s unfortunately clearly compelling to many here
 
Dr Fauci for one
His modeling has been proven to be very inaccurate, it happens. So what? We adjust based on relevant facts, not assuming things through modelling.

Logic is based off factual data. All he had for "logic" was hypothetical scenarios. His data is now factual. The percentages aren't false, the death rate, infection rate, the demographics that are getting hurt from covid... All of it is set in stone now.

Why be obtuse?

I'm not going to get into another pissing match over covid, but with factual data, please explain to me what I am missing here? What is driving you to this point? What are the data points that you are using to drive this narrative? I'm all ears, but it has to be unemotional data.

is it that far out of the reasonable category that mankind would do this by design? You do know what humans (don't forget people, even with advanced brains and opposable thumbs we're still animals) are capable of, right?
 
Oh, and people can’t keep secrets. Large scale conspiracies would have people leaking it. Small scale events where there are limited people-plausible. Large scale events - not plausible.

this was never about being able to hide from the virus until it’s miraculously gone ( to quote our not-great president). It was about not flooding the emergency health care system.

Soooooo... everybody knew about Operation Northwoods (Wikipedia that if you need to) during the 1960s where the CIA proposed false flag terrorism attacks in our own country against our own people to gain support for a war with Cuba?

Yea, these “conspiracy theories” are fucking crazy. No one would ever do this!!!

C’mon. Like @Villain said, our government does not give a fuck about our safety or us. You think Pelosi is a “benevolent being that knew from a young age she would serve our country and help everyone”? You drank all that koolaid.

Not only did we give up and lay down our freedoms without a fight, but we got neighbors willing to enforce the lockdown (calling tip lines) so the powers that be literally don’t have to do anything to rape our freedoms.

Because shit doesn’t add up! You don’t shut down world economies over something like this. Do you not find it the least bit odd that Bill Gates, a damn tech nerd has become the champion of this cause with a vaccine agenda and lower level tyrants like the medical advisor of Ohio are talking about either carrying papers or a digital certificate saying you’ve had it? Is that what’s considered normal in your world filled with benevolent governments? Do unicorns exist there too?

Wikipedia is not a credible news source like CNN, so you just lost him.

For a lot of people, yes, it is totally unreasonable. This goes against every belief that they learned in elementary school. This is the greatest country in the world, we are free, and if you work hard you can achieve anything.

If they actually stopped, looked at the facts and THOUGHT about it, they would quickly realize that things don’t add up. I mean, quarantine the world over something that has a death rate less than 0.1% why?? It’s just easier to succumb to the media-induced fear and believe that we are sacrificing for the greater good of our country - we will be part of history! Our lives have meaning!!!

We’re all pawns. Meaningless automatons that nobody cares about. You don’t mean shit @NorthMich neither do I. This is how modern day slavery works and THEY are clearing the table right now, raking in the wealth that we worked hard for since the last call in 2008. The house always wins. Have a free drink and play again.
 
Look. I’m a science based person. I have BS degrees in science. I’m logical. No way I can entertain and fathom the depths of conspiracy and global cooperation required. It’s functionally impossible

I certainly understand the conspiracy-based brain. We’re seeing it here quite clearly. As emotionally connected to this conspiracy as some here are, that doesn’t make it remotely plausible. That just means there’s a few people here congregating and chanting in unison. You’re feeding off each other.

Fortunately, outside of the Oval Office, there is actual science being used by actual scientists. All over the planet.

Look here Spock - not everything is logic driven, contrary to beliefs. @ickyrica’s saying was perfect:
