Okay, call me CRAZY~ but I chuckle every time a (pre-vaccinated) friend or client tells me they were feeling sick, and tested themselves for "Covid." What does this home testing GIVE people? I mean, is it subconsciously an advertising campaign to elicit sympathy?
If I started having flu symptoms (and trust me, folks~ I've lived for over 70 years without EVER contracting a flu virus) it honestly wouldn't occur to me to buy a test to confirm a "formal" diagnosis! I mean, who GIVES a shit? Will we recover faster or slower, just knowing the nature of the virus we’re plagued with?? I suspect we’ll recover more slowly if it’s “Covid,” due to the fear and dread we’ve been brainwashed to believe about it for the past 2 years.
I’m not saying it isn’t REAL. I’m saying it’s been oversold. Regular annual flu viruses have killed the weak or health-compromised or aged segments of our population for many decades~ yet THIS one (requisitioned by our own government from a laboratory in China) is we’re told, the deadliest of all. Just WHO let this manufactured monster out of its cage, anyway?!
Let’s get REAL for a moment, folks: Haven't we all avoided mingling with others if we know we're coming down with something contagious?? Last time you had a sore or scratchy throat, didn’t you decline to get together with friends, or expose your co-worker to it, regardless of what you thought was the source of that discomfort? Hasn't this been Your lifelong protocol (if you’re a sane and rational human), or am I missing something?
I think there's an aspect in some humans that thrives on drama, chaos and attention (and You know who you are, don't ya?). Is there a degree of satisfaction you get from being able to announce to friends and family you tested "positive" for Covid~ rather than just saying, "I've felt really shitty the past several days, and it's probably a virus" ??
I'm sorry, but who's getting a 'charge' out of telling their friends they've been down with the highly popularized Creeping Crud? Are ya wanting a fucking medal or something?
NOBODY I know who has resisted getting vaccinated, has gotten sick with this virus. Only the people (both friends and clients) who have gotten at least one "anti-viral Covid vaccine" have succumbed to that flu. Kinda makes ya wonder why our government has been mandating we keep taking that shit into our bodies and inflicting our school-aged kids with it, doesn't it??
So, call me crazy~ but IF I ever get acutely congested (usually from eating too much dairy), you can bet your ass I'm NOT gonna rush out and buy a "Covid test," because what will CHANGE, if I do~ other than dramatizing my condition, so that others will give me a little more sympathy?!
UGH... sorry folks, but that's a bit too BPD for Me.
Still seeing humans at the supermarket wearing face-masks, even though they're not mandated. I think to myself, these poor people have likely NEVER felt secure or safe in their world. They can't trust their intuition to guide them with reference to decisions about practical matters. Very likely, they live with generalized anxiety symptoms~ so EVERYTHING scares 'em.
I just smile at them when we pass in the grocery aisles, and it honestly doesn't bother me if they don't smile back~ because they've blocked me from observing this natural, human socialized gesture that connects us all, and gives us a sense of community. Incidentally, if you're good at reading people's energy and personality like I am, when half their face is covered, can you assess who poses a potentially dangerous presence to you, and who does not? I didn't think so.
Amen!
