Actually, cdc has said distance is enough, but wear a mask if social distancing isn't possible. Stop being obstinate

Its redundancy, a fail safe

If condoms work, why do we need anal?

If condoms work why do we need plan B? If plan B works why do we need French toast?
blainetog
6' is the bit that's most helpful. Masks are for when 6' isn't an option, like when passing someone in the grocery store. Also, the two >>
blainetog
>> strategies enhance each other. Masks keep your breath from traveling as far, 6' gives your breath more distance in which to stop.
Cyranojoe
Wear a condom. Keep your distance from people spewing pus and/or blood. And for goodness' sake, STOP FUCKING EVERYONE YOU MEET.
Cyranojoe
This public safety announcement brought to you by common goddamn sense.

If The Senate works, why do we need the House of Representatives. If the House of Representatives works why do we need The Senate?
Sipulikeitto
Stupid people can understand only 1 thing at the time. Multiple things goes over their head so easily. They pause breathing while thinking.

Belt and braces.
toxcrusadr
Grampa called it belt and suspenders.
thoushaltnotpass
defense in depth. I'm in IT security and I have to explain to developers that yes, writing secure code is important even behind a firewall.
MexicanTrainer
If oxygen works, why do we need lungs?
Furiou5
It's perfect if you believe that the government should regulate driving, the problem is that many conservatives think that safety laws(1)
Furiou5
are just another way (((they))) control us. My uncle, a dyed in the wool conservative who thinks Trump is a god incarnate thinks it (2)
Furiou5
isn't the government's job to worry if he dies in a car accident. That is between him and god. (3)
MicahtheMartian
She's using the word "work(s)" pretty loosely here.
Frostbreaker1
Dammit it's so hard to tell whether ppl are being sarcastic or just dumb
drGrafenberg
Airbags and no seatbelt will make your face look different.
sunandmoonfarm2107
So. Many. Stupid. People.
Blimymyhat
People never tell me their story about their accident that they died in because they didn't wear a seatbelt.

"A face mask saved my life, I'm amazed that I survived" ~ Thom Yorke, probably.
BoredCreep
Should probably have blocked out the 'Replying to' bit as well, no?
Lurkch
Jokes on you. This dude doesn't wear a seat belt, either.
amop
They don’t work, nothing’s 100%. They’re guidelines to keep you safer since you can’t be an adult and isolate
MissPapercut
Now everyone can. I wish I could've, trust me. 3 or more months at home with 80% income?! Heavenly! But no, I'm a "hero" instead. Fuck this.
amop
Trust me i’m not essential to anything but have had status the whole time too, i get it, but that’s on the fed, not the isolation
ItsBDC
I like to think of em like the work brace belts. They don't actually help, but they remind you of the area that needs protecting.
amop
They do lower the chance significantly. I think it’s like having a sneeze guard in a lumber yard. Keep some sawdust away, but not all
kyleighmcquarykm10
Those definitely do help, significantly, in fact.
ItsBDC
I meant the stretchy ones that just remind you to not be a dumbass. I never got to use one of the actual good ones lol
URNSHOW
Isolating has its flaws as well.
amop
Not when it cones to containing the virus
beefosupremo
I love how stupid these new anti-maskers are. Probably the same stupid group that are anti-vaxxers. They're also flat earthers too.
blainetog
They're also Trump supporters. Their golden boy doesn't wear a mask and suggests injecting bleach, so they're gonna follow his lead.
mrgoggles
Didn't he not wear a mask in front of press, but he did wear it in the factory? Keeping himself safe and lying to the public about masks?
blainetog
Yep. Wore a mask, but only so he specifically wouldn't set a good example about it. He's a hypocrite in the worst way.
WillJeSuis
Yea, a lot of times when I look at those twitter profiles, they have a lot of trump support indicators.
martian086
“Many diseases are long gone, why do we need vaccines these day?”. Same level of stupidity
HappyLittleIdiot
Uhm achthually, if diseases were truly gone, we wouldn't need vaccines, would we? If it isn't anywhere anymore, you can't get it anyway.
kmikl
Variola wants a word with those idiots.
xizar
Smallpox vaccines aren't given out anymore (except to people are are directly in contact with it), so there is some precident.
Cyranojoe
One. One precedent.
xizar
Two precedents. Rinderpest. (I have no idea what that is, but I just spent an hour down rabbitholes and now everyone must do the googles.)
Cyranojoe
That's cool.
malkavian3str
Another things that people don't understand is, tht it is not always about being perfectly safe from infection in every situation.
malkavian3str
But by working together, retarding virus propagation, thus making everybody measurably safer.

You guys all sound like Karen
tarataqa
ok, boomer.
YourQuinny
Not fair tarataqa. Opinions are formed by individuals. Pretending everyone in a group thinks the same way is Trump-like. I am Boomer.
tarataqa
You all sound like Karen.
hessians4hire
Ok boomer
sweatybuttcrack
And if air bags and seat belts work, why do we still have so many deaths on the road each year? Wear your masks people.
AimlessSavant
Frankly would opt into full body protection equipment :v
Registeredfordeuce
Why do cars even have bumpers , FAKE NEWS! Cars don’t crash , people crash them
CynicalEuropean
Not always. There have been a couple of autonomous cars that have crashed.
ShouldersDeepInAHorse
Don't use a seatbelt, use a mask!
RandomTurd
Wait, hows the mask helping in an accident?
deyoung1457365
F=MV. Also, idiots don’t always wear seatbelts and not all airbags work.
ScarecrowSticks
Wear your masks, don't drink and drive
ForeheadAirport
Otherwise your drink might spill.
CatatonicCowMoo
But driving is so booooooooring sober.
fitlex
Car crashes are a hoax!
andsy
Car crashes are a conspiracy to make the totally amazeballs glorious leader of the free world and president of the U S A look bad. Shameful!
Jackeea
Wait, you believe in cars?
plutonium
People in cars should wear helmets.
fenris97
Racecar drivers wear a whole lot of protecting gear, including helmets. Still not safe

CynicalEuropean
Fairly few deaths though considering what they do.
BubblegumPinkSoda
If you censor her name the first time, why censor it the second time?
Fudgecakes99
its because https://youtu.be/CfG9SYKg0V0?t=5
TheSemanticsDome
anabobcatz
Why censor it at all??
ActionJohnnie
It’s published public. Let it fly.
CommanderShitFace
Most people ignore @'s and #'s tbh. Fuck a blue text.
firebreed
You don't want to go there, it's just stupid comment after stupid comment.
SkeletonRecruiter
PickledDundersnoot
Why censor at all? She put the comment and her name out there in the public eye, asking for a response to questions.
JustAddMud
If you don't censor her name the second time, why censor it the first time?
ollikahn
yes
kmikl
Best answer right here.
PaulBouchereau
Why censor their names at all? I’m so tired of protecting the stupid at the expense of them learning just how stupid they are.
ztreimer78
Exactly, if they are brave enough to post it, show their name for everyone!
StuckInBetweeen
Mob mentality is dangerous. The response was warranted but the mass amount of death threats idiots will prob send her and the stalking?
PaulBouchereau
That’s a good point. On a completely unrelated note; I hate you.
StuckInBetweeen
Dad?

K-On!, for anyone wondering

This username. It pleases me.
thunderrunner
And yes, the ! Is part of the name. Awesome show btw! Gonna go rewatch the whole thing and finally watch the second season :)
spinachbb
Watch the movie while you're at it!
thunderrunner
Is the movie before S2 or after?
MrNlceGuy
Doot
revenantC
What's the point i censoring the names tho -you should know who to avoid, and who to shame for being this stupid
Boxxerturtle
Censoring Twitter is almost always useless, you can just type a tweet into Google and find it unless there are other word for word copies.
revenantC
I ment it in general not only twatter(not a spelling mistake) censorship only breeds positive enviorment by sheltering absurd viewpoints
TheobromineAddict
In America, you can get sued for libel when you quote some idiot's exact fucking stupid words.
revenantC
That's sad - all I can say w/o getting hit by "you are an ableist" or some other social science crap.
ElbowDeepinaTinyOctopus
You can get sued for anything. Literally anything. Do those suits win? That's the big concern here.
Starcatcher1986
Because sometimes people on the internet respond disproportionately. Yes this is stupid, but the original response was all she needed.
revenantC
Ye, I get it mobbing is an issue but at the same time enabling/catering "likeminded" retards(pardon) is just as bad
c00lbeans69
People on the internet can be cruel. The girl who originally ran the Wendy's twitter account was doxxed and harassed relentlessly with
c00lbeans69
people posting her personal information (such as address). She quit when someone sent her candid photos of her in public
ElbowDeepinaTinyOctopus
Mobbing is still more of an issue. If someone tried, do you think they could find something stupid or out of context you've said that could
ElbowDeepinaTinyOctopus
go viral like this? I'm not confident something like that couldn't be found for me. And mobs, if things go viral, don't stop at justice...
katsumiblisk
*Why not
stouffer
*why. They're quoting the format of the tweet.
demosteness
If they’re quoting the format of the tweet, why not quoting the opposite format of the tweet?
katsumiblisk
They didn’t censor the second appearance - it’s still visible
