If you have medical conditions where you can't risk getting covid, then you shouldn't be going outside with other people in the first place, mask or not.

I don't know how to make this more clear, literally basically everyone doesn't wear a mask anymore here, there is no point to me being the one person wearing one.

If I gave covid to anyone, it was someone who either got it even though I was wearing a mask, or they were intentionally at an unmasked event where neither of us was required to wear one. Either way, I'm not going to be sorry for following the rules and trying to socialize during the pandemic.

I highly doubt I caused anyone death or disability, relatively few people got disabilities or death from covid compared to the whole population.

I wore one when I was required to and didn't wear one when I wasn't, so sorry for following the rules?

That reality is reality? People die of lots of different things, I'm sorry I'm that's news to you.

I call it reality.

The rush may be greater if I don't follow the laws, but then finding the laws the risk still exists. I don't feel bad for driving and putting others at risk while I just try to get to work or home.

I did mask during the mandate what I had to, I also didn't mask during the mandate when I didn't have to. It's not like I went into a nursing home without a mask, I went out with other people who were also willing to not use masks, it's not like I intentionally exposed my breath on those who wanted to stay isolated and masked up. If it's appalling to hang out with other intentionally un-masked individuals, I don't know what to tell you.

Thousands die every day from tons of other stuff also, just a part of life.

I'm sorry, but people die of lots of different things all the time, it sucks but it's a part of life

That's fair, but I think you can still compare it to the flu, which is not that far off from covid percentage wise. At this point both the flu and covid should be at an equal level of people having vaccines and natural antibodies, right? Even if you go with covid being about twice as deadly as the flu, twice as deadly as almost nothing is still almost nothing.

Well one big difference is that PPP loans were a one time thing, they are gone now and not coming back for a very long time.

If you paid off all student loans today, there would be more tomorrow, and every day after that. If we do it once, we basically have to keep doing it until school is completely paid for and student loans are no longer a thing.

Forgiving student loans just has a much bigger and longer lasting financial obligation than one time PPP loans.

Again, I think you need to look up the definition of false equivalency, what I am saying isn't that.

Define dangerous, because I wouldn't call current strains of covid dangerous. The hospitalized death rate isn't that far off the flu at this point. It used to be more deadly, but it's just not anymore.

But hey, at least we can agree I'm technically correct.
