Today, the Governor of Texas announced he would be opening the state up 100%. He will also be lifting the mask mandate. The cheers of Covid Deniers and Libertarians screaming ‘Freedom’ could be heard across the Texas sky, Ted Cruz booked another flight to Cancun to celebrate, and Spring Break just became a guinea pig for the future.
I have a very simple response to this news and to all those celebrating.
Go Fuck Yourself.
Go Fuck Yourself if you ever told anyone to “stay home if you’re afraid” or said this was just the flu. Go Fuck Yourself if you said those pushing for masks were “fearmongering”. Go Fuck Yourself.
Go. Fuck. Yourself.
I am tired of trying to tiptoe around a group of people who literally would rather I die than be inconvenienced with a mask. I am tired of arguing with absolute ignorant asshats who try to argue with doctors and nurses who wear masks for a living that masks are harmful. I am tired of being held FUCKING HOSTAGE BY AN ENTIRE STATE.
A few weeks ago Texas froze over because apparently regulating those who provide us power is a bad thing, even though all these studies are coming out showing that consumers in Texas paid WAY much more for de-regulated power than regulated.
Now, after our winter storm of capitalism, our state is trying to kill us again.
97,000 people died in January from Covid. The most in a month EVER.
And you want to remove the mask mandate and open the state up completely?
GO. FUCK. YOURSELF.
Let’s do a little assessment on the politics of this, shall we. Now, I am going to make a HUGE generalization and say the vast majority of anti-maskers are on the, how shall we say “conservative” side of politics. And the vast majority of those who are wanting restrictions and mask are those on the “left” side. Yes, there are people on the right who are pro mask and yes there are people on the…you know what? Fuck that. I am not tiptoeing anymore.
The left are constantly called anti-American traitors who hate the country.
THE RIGHT LITERALLY PLOTTED TO KILL THE GOVERNOR OF MICHIGAN AND TRIED TO KILL THE VICE PRESIDENT WHILE ATTACKING THE CAPITAL.
So again…..goooooooo fuuuuuuuuuck yourself.
Masks work. They literally save lives. If you can wear a damn shirt in a store because the sign says so, you can wear a damn mask. Suck it up, buttercup.
This virus is not disappearing just because we are tired of it. It is not going away because we need to hang out with each other. This virus is literally mutating because we are taking so long to get our shit together and fight it.
But, but, it was only supposed to be 14 days to flatten the curvegofuckyourself.
But we aren’t built for staying in doorGOFUCKYOURSELF
Notice how the flu has disappeared, you stupidly say? yeah! You know why? BECAUSE WE ARE WEARING MASKS, WASHING OUR HANDS, AND DISTANCING OURSELVES. IT IS LITERALLY STOPPING THE FLU SO WHY CAN’T YOU TAKE THAT SAME INFORMATION AND PUT IT TO THE VIRUS YOU ABSOLUTE PIECE OF SHIT.
People are going to die because of this insane display of partisan cowardice. Your argument for Freedom is mute when it means I may die. Go fuck yourself.
Shame on Texas. Shame on the selfish minority screaming over their fake patriotism.
Shame on so many people. And if you are smiling because you love watching me upset, go fuck yourself, with the mask you never wore.
