That's true for the government around these parts, that's for sure. I would suspect the same sort of thing for most other governments around the world.
Yet Australia and New Zealand, even though their governments have been reporting "near zero" cases for most of the time, have been especially enjoying their infliction of all-out tyranny upon their respective citizenry. China has also been reporting "near zero" cases almost the whole time. However, these governments don't NEED the justification for oppressive laws like is needed atm in the States, since the citizenry in the States still tend to value at least a number of their freedoms endowed upon them by their Creator, hence the increased pressure as of lately to condition people of the States to view their freedoms as selfish.
The local news last night mentioned that Dane County has extended their mask mandate yet again (DUH!), and acknowledged that they are the only county in the State doing it and that people are feeling restless about having to keep wearing it, but then they interviewed a cherry-picked nurse who is all for the mandate and claiming that it's helping and that "we" need to keep up the good work (as Dane County case numbers are supposedly amongst the lowest in the State atm and Dane County vaccination rates are the highest in the State, supposedly at around 75%). --- What is funny is how Dane County requires masks indoors yet 80,000 people can pack like sardines into Camp Randall Stadium on a Saturday and don't have to wear masks (and largely DON'T wear masks). Yes, it is an outdoor stadium, but one could be exposed to COVID from being there just as they could from being in a grocery store or a place of business. Hell, these very same people freak out about the Sturgis bike rally being a "superspreader event", yet they don't even bat an eye about packing like sardines into Camp Randall Stadium for a football game.
Obviously, especially since he refuses to address my questions to him about it (and other buzzwords).
I'm giving him every opportunity to list some specific examples of what he is talking about, to educate a dumbass Trump-a-billy such as myself, but he refuses to do so. He supposedly "has the knowledge" (not really), but refuses to educate me when I come to him asking questions, attempting to learn from him.
Obviously he doesn't know what he's talking about and can't teach anyone even if he wanted to... hence the parroting of buzzwords and insults.
